I- President Bousal of the N. & S. Cttr

depot at Dillon until the eitisu-DX ot tor

they made to brltig the,Railroad to
Dillon . pet
The committee appointed by the
citlsens say they tjannot carry out [,f

Now wttfj's at fault?
The Herald will recite a little lurk .ui

Br -f!? ^bblic. or
p / The editor of The Herald was Ma}- as
jr. , / or of Dillon when Mr. B-msn 1 mndv *e\
his first visit to Dillon lor the purpose
of extending the X. A.- S t'. j.,
railroad from Clio to (his point. vv*j
Before taking any definite net ion
Mr. Bonsai said he wanted, as an \VI
inducement to bring the railroad by ;j,
Billon, "a right of way beginning at
a point two miles out from Clio, j),
through the town of Dillon and two
miles out o! town in an easterly
direction. Also he wanted a site
150 feet wide and 300 feet long lot Bl
a depot." litis proposition was
made to council and the mat tor was
referred to a committee consisting 0!l
of Dr. J. H. David. Dr. Wade Stark- *
house and Mr. \V. M. Hauler. s?> 'J*
lected by the citizens to represent th al
town of Dillon. "
The site for a depot was com ributed
by Messrs. J. W. and 'I'. A.
Dillon free of cost and a deed for
the same 'was properly executed to in
the N. & S..C. railroad. Mi
Now Mr. Bonsai alleges thai tin a|:
committee has failed to carry out
its agreement in that it did not se- m
cure the proposed right of way, but .|that
the right of way was secured iei
largely through the efforts of the di
N. & S. C. railroad at an expendi- j|i
ture of nearly <8000. vvj
To rclriin.rivt the N. A- S. ('. piRailroad,
it is understood, to the m
extent of <8000, certain i?roperty jn
on East Main street was condemned* tji
by process of law and the same was ,t
to have been conveyed to theX. A.- ;n
S. C. railroad, but that opposition .,y
had arisen to a proposed bond is- o
sue to the extent of <10,000 to he -p
used In purchasing the property. te
The railroad alleges that the coin- >c
mtttee has failed to carry out its th
agreement, and the committee a lie- an
ges that the citizen^ have failed to ,)f
support them in their effort to car- ae
ry out the agreement, and there ,re
the matter hangs. ? )<
But the reputation of the town is qi
at stake. Dillon has always been its
known to carry out its agreements ie
and the longer the matter stands th
as it is the more the reputation of to
the town suffers If there is a mis in
understanding between Mr. Ilonsal
and the committee, or the committee
and the citizens who guve them the t'l
authority to act for the town, it
does seem that all parties in in
lorcsi cuuiu net lORPinw illld Sol- | rtle
the matter one way or the other.
As a solution of the problem The I'
K:rra?il yuggcfle a meeting between D
the railroad committee anil the cttlr.ens
of the town . 5.

Card From Magistrate Fore. D
Editor Dillon Herald: ?>
I notice In the grand jury a re- E
port that they charge all the Magis- C
trat.es with failing to turn over costs S
paid them by parties that settled S.
cases | want to say that I have J
been Magistrate about ten years and !-<'
have never held back one dollar
from such fines. The most of my J
cases are always settled, the costs H
paid and the money turned over to '
the county treasurer, and report W
made to the auditor. I don't see l?
how any Magistrate could afford to I
apply one copper to his own use E.
when he makes oath that all exits E.
and fines have l>eeu paid over to H.
the county treasurer. The oath Is 8.
always made before the Count> b
Board of Commissioners who issue D.
Checks to pay their claims I al- 1
ways make monthly reports to the E.
Auditor. If I don't oollcet any T
thing I make a report so the And- I W
Itor will know that nothing has been W
Paid to the trmunr?r i q?i? --t
party or parties to go and inspect H.
'V.. the auditor's office in Dillon or Mar A
Ion oounty and see if they don't E.
find the above correct. This is my E.
firat writing, Mr. Editor, for rtu- C.
public and I hope you will give it C.
pace in your paper I felt like I
would not be doing my self justice J
it I failed to show to the public my J
position. Respectfully. R

Wholesale Grocery early Sunday
mn-lllni- Til.* \nun? ninn'a ..oft- ? >
broki ti and his body was scarred in
several places, iudivaiiu^ that he
had met a violent death.
Sat u"day night Jackson came down
town for a shave and he was seen
to leave the barber shop about U
o'clock and walk off in the direction
of Hamilton's stables. Ho appeared
to b<i somewhat und r the influence
of liquor but was in full possession
of his faculties. That was the last
time he was seen alive. Sunday
morning: his body was found \v? dged
in between the ties of the railroad
track a! t: point a few feet north of
the railroad crossing in front yf the
Dillon Wholesale Citociry.
His neck was broken at the base
of the skull, there were several
scratches mi his nose, a slight abrasion
ott the right shoulder and a
wound under tlie chin. The presumption
is that the young man was
walking down the railroad track and
was t'tv.ck hv train .No S2. northbound.
?nd hurled against the side
track with such violence that his ne?
was broken, although the coroner s
jury, after deliberating over the evidence
mhiuittcri at the inquest, returned
a v edict to the effect that
the deceased came to his death in
a manner unknown to the jury.
Some of young Jackson's friends
incline to the opinion that lie was
tnuribvid and that his hod> was pin
??d on tlr? rail to cover crime. Oth
is aiv of Die opinion that he was
struck by iii" steps of the train and
hurh d to his death. There was no
evidence submitted to show that he
j car. struck by the engine.
