If dad is republican and ma i
democratic, what is the baby?
Women are in politics all right, bi
politicians know full well that the:
is no use in arguing with them.
Both Cox and Harding played bast
bail in their youthful days, bi
neither developed into profession:
players, thus missing much publicit
before they were shifted. on tfc
presidential wagon.
About 50,000 acres of land wei

this year. Based on the yields (
normal years Dillon should ha\
iuade this year .about 43,000 bales (
cotton. A conservative estimai
places this year's yield at 32,00
bales. These figures indicate a shor
age of 10,000 bales, which at preser
prices, would be worth approximate)
?1.500,000. Ask any farmer in lb
county what caused this loss and b
will tell you it was due to the e:
cessive rains in July and Augus
Now the question is, would the coui
tjr have suffered this loss if the lanti
bad been properly drained? Thei
would have been some loss, of cours*
but would it have amounted to 10
000 bales? To be conservative, suj
pose we place the loss at one-hal
or 5,000 bales, which would in do
loro omniint in S7S0 Oftft Oft. If
system of drainage would have save
the county that amount in one yes
would it not be a good investmer
to spend a million or more in dredf
ing the swamps and draining th
Jaods? The average man will jum
at an investment that pays 20 pt
cent., but here is an investment tha
will pay nearly 100 per cent, th
first year and more than 100 per cen
for the succeeding years, and yet ou
land-owners shy away from it. Bt
the saving in dollars is not all. .
ay stem of drainage that would in
prove the health of the community
that would increase the efficienc
and redouble -the energies of th
people, has possibilities that cannc
be exaggerated. Another movemer
is on foot to drain Maple Swamp. W
do not know how many times thi
Hiflrrement has been under way, bti
Viuu.i/vfAKA Woo nnfnrnH nut Kpfnr
JBC1CIU1U1C It uao i/tvv*vu wuv vv*wit
got anywhere. The draining c
Maple Swamp will be worth thot
Bands of dollars to the town of Di
3oh. For every dollar invested in th
way of taxes by the property owner
along its banks the return in cas
dividends will 6e large. Let's kee
this last drainage movement aliv
until something definite is accon:
plished.
The grand jury, as will be seen b
its final report, means to put a sto
to speeding on the public highways
V As will be noted by comparison wit
other counties, Dillon has been singu
larly fortunate in the matter of autc
mobile accidents of a serious or fata
nature, but this has been due mor
to luck than to a strict observanc
of the speed laws. Dillon county ha
its speed fiends and one does not hav
to travel very far to find them, i
short trip into the country on Sunda
afternoons convinces one that it is fa
safer to sit on one's front porch ain
enjoy the evening breezes. The high
ways are public property and ever
man has equal rights in the use o
ahem. The statutes say that a mai
shail not drive an automobile ore
them at a rate of speed exceeding 2
miles an hour, and when he violate
this statute he has assumes rights t'
which he is neither legally no
mrmillv entitled Whv therefore
ahraold he not be punished? If h<
^drives his automobile at a reekles
rate of speed and injures anothe
person, whether that person be J
.passenger in his own car or in soiir
other person's car, why should he no
be imprisoned? Or if he kills sour
other person in the same manner
why should he not be held for mur
der? In Greenville county a reekles
daver plunged a car over an em
bankment and killed five or six o
his companions. He is being he!
for murder. And why not? Tllives
of the people in the car wer
ia his hands and he knew it. If h<
xdili not show a proper regard fo
human life and drove his car at i
reckless rate of speed, he Is Just a
guilty as the nian who, withou
provocation, takes up a shotgun an<
kills his fellow-man. Statistician
nay lhat automobile accidents clair
a human life every hour. The inex
orable law of fate inflicts a heavie
penalty for carelessness than man
made law, but man-made law can t
a great extent minimize these trage
dies of the road. The grand ju;
deserves and 110 doubt will have
support of all right-thinking citizen
in its efforts to make the high waxsafe
for the people.
