LEXINGTON WILL DO HER SHARE SUPERVISOR ABOUT TO BEGIN ON ROADS IN THE FORK. Has Larger Force, Both Convicts and Mules, and Road to Newberry Will Be Put in Order. The State. Lexington, June 10.-There has been so much said of late about the su-pervisor of Lexington county not working the proposed automobile highway, which runs through the Dutch Fork section of this county. Supervisor Langford was asked when he hoped to begin work on the road. Done Much Work. The -supervisor of Lexington has done a world of good work on the roads of this county during the last year, and more especially during the last few months. He has worked the roads in and around Swansea, which were in a most horrible condition, the sand being very deep. The roads in that section are now a credit to the county. For several weeks it was nec essary to keep the gang on the road leading through the famous Hoggabaa swamp, which has given so much trouble and about which there has been so much unfavorable comment. This piece of road has been put in the best possible shape, although it is essential to keep a force of hands employed to keep it up.. Augusta Road. Again, the Augusta road between Lexington and Columbia, came in for a share of the chaingang's work. This stretch has ibeen put in good shape, every foot of it having been clayed. During the last couple months thE gang has been working on the gap be tween Lexington and Leesville and when it is finished this road will be the best in the county and will extend from one side of the county to the other. In speaking of the situation Mr. Langford said: "It is an impossibil ity to please all . the people all . the time. I have done the best I could for the roads of this county, and while it would afford me a great deal of pleasure to use the chaingang on all of the roads in the county, this is impossible. I have sta ted all along that it was my intention to get on the roads in the Fork during the ear ly summer, and 'I had hoped to have gotten there earlier, but I fail to see the good judgment of moving the gang before the Augusta road has been completed. It must be remem bered that this is also an automobile highway and is equally as important in my estimation as the proposed highway coming from the up-country. The .Augusta road will be completed at an early date and I will at once move to the Fork. (Will Bush It. "It is my intention now to begin work on the Columbia and Newberry road, starting at Broad river bridge and continuing until the road is fin ished to the Newberry line. I will have a good force of' hands, at least 14 -more than I had when the gang was in the Fork last year. I also have siv more mules than last year, *and It can readily be seen that I will push the work on this new highway rapidly. Just say to the papers that 'Old'Louis' is going to'give these peo ple a good road, one that will be a credit to the county." Delays of the La~w. "I.understand that you called on the plaintiff. Is that so?" "Yes," replied the witness. 'What did he say?" The attorney for the defense jump -ed to his feet and objected that the -oonversation could not be admitted in the evidence.

KUKER WILL LOSE JOB. wi President Revokes Appointment of Kuker to Postmastership in Sena- evt tor's' Home. w. Washington, June 9.-Louris Kuker. will be ousted from the postmaster ship at Florence. His name was sent in several months ago by President Taft, but confirmation has been heldo' up in the senate by Senator Smith. o The president today ordered the post- the master general to withdraw the nomi- w nation. This was done at the instiga-ni tion of Senator Smith and in his pres ence the president dictated the order Iof withdrawal. Senator Smith declin-, Ca ed to recommend any one for the of fice, but wil do so later. His chief objection to Kuker, heoe said, was that the president had madeua the nomination without his approval,' tw< which was contrary to the precedents 15, in such matters and not in conformity Tu with the established principle that a' senator shall have the privlege of naming the postmaster in his home town. President Taft stated that he intended hereafter to conform to this~ Tu rule, declaring that the several nomi- nit nations in senators' home towns here tofore made were in the rush arid con- C. fusion of a large number of appoint ments to which he was unable to give_ his personal attention. A similar case' was that of the postmastership at Bir mingham. Aia., the nomination to of which was withdrawn at the instiga- he tion of Senator Johnston. Unless.a Co name is sent in shortly for the Flor- Th ence position the office will be vacant ,thi filled, of course, by the assistant until du a postmaster is named. Within the di next few days Senator Smith will send ce' a list of several names of men accept- se< able to him for the office, from which Co it i .evnpeterd the president will make is f you are not satisfied after using ording to directions two-thirds of )ottle of Chamberlain's Stomach [ Liver Tablets, you can have your ney back.
