The Times' Idea Endorsed.?Soma Val- I j
uable Suggestions.
Editor The Times: I wish to
congratulate you. The editorial, 1
in which you recommend certain j *
permanent improvements, is able ! ]
and to the point. With the lights (J
which have been installed so far, '
the town is fairly well lighted ;
and can make out without furth- '
er expenditures along this line 1
for the present. The improvements
to the streets, both those
SvViich vnn mpntirvri nnd al>rr? H10 :
macadamizing of the principal |
highways, is a matter which
should be attended to at once, i
? If it can be legally done, I would i
suggest that the town go about ]
macadamizing the highways and
pass an .ordinance requiring the 1
owners of property facing the 1
streets macadamized, to put down
cement paving on the sidewalks. '
I have known this to be done inseveral
places, the appreciation
in the value of the property thus
improved more than repaying
the owners. It would, of course,
be necessary for the town officials
to see that this cement paving
js put down according to specifications,
to be furnished by them.
And they should see that the
specifications call for paving of
sufficient stability to last ten or
fifteen years.
. However, there is a matter,
which to my mind, requires the
most immediate attention and
this is the erection of a new
graded school building. It is a
>vell known fact that the present 1
building is far too much crowded
for the number of pupils. More,
the-building is in a bad state of
repair. I would like to suggest
to the Honorable Mayor and i
Board of Aldermen that they
call an election for the voting of
a suitable amount of bonds for
the erection of a new school
Kl'll^inrr TKio J 1 Jv*f/\ U/x ^4*

such size as may be deemed advisable
by the board of trustees
and to contain an auditorium.
The education of the children is
a thing which should receive first
consideration.
I am. sir, a former resident of
Fort Mill. I have her best interests
in mind at all times and wish
to see her push to the front.
4,P. Q, B." t
P. S: I could name several
towns, with nothing like the resources
of Fort Mill, that have :
graded school buildings, costing
Jrom fifteen to twenty-five thousand
dollars. I know another
town which has, in the past
eighteen months, erected a school
building at a cost of $20,000 and
also put imDrovements to the
streets to the amount of $15,000.
This town has about the same
number of inhabitants as Fort
Mill and I would judge about the !
same amount of taxable property.
Mayor Harris Opposes Privilege Tas.
Editor Times:
I wish to thank the editor for
olfering my council his support j
I consider him a valuable assist- j (
pnt.
The new ordinance printed ;
elsewhere in your paper and
passed by the retiring council is |
to onr mind unnecessary. We !
know that it is unpopular. Our <
new charter provides a 10 mill ,
tax to be leyied at the discretion ;
pf the board of aldermen. With i
ptreet tax and fines equal to that
Df last year, a two mill levy is [ 1
sufficient to meet the necessary ]
expenses of our town for this.; (
year. I\
If we are to have any of the i
following improvements, ma- <
cadamized streets, better sidewalks,
better lights and better
care of our cemetary, then we
must have more revenue. I favor ,
a repeal of that part of said or- J
dinance which atfects residents. \
Jf we are to have improvements :
let the board of aldermen levy 1
such part, of the 10 mills at their \
disposal as is necessary to meet
these requirements. Then all 1
taxpayers will share alike. Under
the present ordinance one j(
fourth of the people of our town
will pay a tax equal to the '
property tax now paid by the entire
people of our town. I ask you .
Mr. Taxpayer, do you see any
fairness in this ordinance. j J

Inaxrlaut Meeting of Council.
The new board of aldermen
elected on the 14th instant to c
J-year terms and consisting of t
Vlessrs. C. II. Branson, VV. M. c
Julj), B. C. Ferguson, A. R. t
VIciSlhaney, W. B. Ardrey and s
Dr. J. L. Spratt, met in the of- r
ice of the latter last Wednesday 1
jvening and were installed into \
ifiice. Mayor L. A. Harris ad- I
ministered the oath, immediately c
ifter which a business meeting t
was held. Dr. Snratt beincr an- I I
pointed temporary secretary. j.
The first business brought up c
was the election of a town c
treasurer. The ballots were c
cast and Mr. McElhaney was <
re-elected to the office for one c
year. The salary of the treasurer
was then fixed at $125 for the
year, instead of the 5 per cent
commission which has been paid
this olficer heretofore. t
The election of a chief of po- 1
lice was the next business to a
hand and Chief V. D. Potts was 1 1
re-elected over three contestants. : I
It has been the custom hereto- (
f> re to elect the chief of police ; i
for the year, but this was over- ; i
ruled and the officer's term will i t
hereafter expire monthly. The (
salary of Officer Potts was in-11
creased to $42.50 per month. ! j
On motion of Mr. Culp it was 1
decided by council that hereafter i
the town hall should be rented ;
to white people only.
The last matter taken up was , (
the election of Dr. Spratt to the <
office of mayor pro term for one <
year. The council then ad- I
journed to meet again in about <
two weeks. ! <
For a Monument to Or. Thornwcll. ]
Mr. John Wood, of Greenville, J
in writing to the South Carolina (
Pythian, says:
"As a rule I am opposed to the '
monument idea or to the erec- v
tion of memorials to every \
worthy man who passes away, j
I think the custom has been I ,
sometimes abused, but there arc I
occasions when I do favor monu- !
ments and would pro far out of ,
my way to assist in their provision.
It seems to me that i
such an occasion has now ar- (;
rived. Would it not be lit and J
proper to devise some substan- !
tial testimonial to the living es- j
teem in which we held that
brother who has so recently left ]
us? I refer to Brother Thornwell;
What a man he was! ]
What a Christain, what an exponent,
living, ardent, true and (
enthusiastic, of the highest and j
best and purest in Pythianism!
Think of his services to his fcl- ]
low men. his love for all that
was good, his pride in the fact
that along with the Hag of j
Christ he could carry with such
perfect consistency the banner of i
Pythian Knighthood! i s
"But enough of that. He died r
in harness as all Pythians would ?
die. Let us erect a monument t
to him, one towards which all !j
may contribute. We have some i
12,000 Knights in this Domain, i r
I suggest that each one shall ?
make an offring to the fund. I
Let us make the limit small, that c
none may feel his offering too t
humble. Like the little deeds s
that massed together make a t
final comely whole, these small a
sums would prove sufficient to i
the need. Suppose each Knight
gave twenty-five cents? Some1
would give more. Let us deny |
them the privilege and put ail
upon a common plane.
"Am I asking too much to 1
crave space for this suggestion? [
If others have forestalled me, '
add my "80000(1" to their mo- )
tion, provided ? " 1
[In order to put Mr. Woods
plan in motion, it would be nec- ^
essary to obtain the consent of '
af the grand chancellor of the !:
State. We learn that at the last 1
meeting of Electra Lodge the {
matter was discussed, and it is
likely that a committee will be G
named in the next few days to j
confer with the head officials and c
that contributions to the monu- ?
ment will be forthcoming in a v
jhort time.?Ed. Times.] r

The Charlotte Chronicle of last v
Monday stated that the prose- )
luting attorneys in the case \
iguinsl j. ni. uoster, rural mail
carrier from Waxhaw who is
charged with embezzlement, ?
lave decided to waive further
ixamination of Doster and let ^
:he case go up to the Federal I >iQurt
in June. This action is the !1
esult of the disappearance of |
\dani McFadden, chief witness
for the prosecution.
It will be recalled to mind that C
VIcFadden gave Doster $2.30, it a
s alleged, for a money order for li
52.25, said money order to be!
;ent to a liquor house in Atlanta t
"or liquor for McFadden's Christ- t
nas jollification. The liquor d
vliich finally did arrive was s.iid I
o have been es an inferior gr-de o
md it was alleged that Doster f
vid sent his personal check to f
he house for only $1.50 for the i
iquor which McFadden received, o
Che case is an interesting one, ,J
md fhere may he further do- t
relopments of interest before h
he matter is finally disposed of. v

Rock Hiil Wants Charlotte Pastor. 1 /
At a congregational meeting ,1
)f the First Presbyterian church '
)f Itock Hill, S. C., yesterday. I
1 unanimous call was extended ! i
to Rev. Alexander Martin, pastor (
Df Westminster Presbyterian ,
church of Charlotte. Not long
igo a committee from the Rock j1
Erlill church visited Charlotte and I
heard Mr. Martin preach and i
this is doubtless the result of i
that delegation's work. The '
Rock Hill church has been without
a pastor for quite a while, 1
since Rev. Walter Lingle left 1
there for Atlanta. ! i
Mr. Martin will take the call j,
under consideration. (
