Campaign Contribution* Needed.
The Democratic party is the
.party of the people and it must
depend Upon' popular subscriptipns
to raise money \vith which
to cprfdU(ct the presidential and
congressional campaigns. It can

want; and will not accept- contributions
frohi the trusts and
other lawless corporations as
does the Republican party. This
"being: tru6, a ringjDg call to the
people was issued shortly after
the Denver convention by Mr.
Bryan urging an those who
wished to see Democracy again
enthroned at Washington, and
who were able financially to do
so, to come to the aid of the party
by individual cash contributions.
Generally throughout the
country the responses have been
quick'and the people have shown
'jby their contributions that the
principles of the white man's
party are as dear to the hearts of
the masses'as ever. Of course,
not one man in every hundred
y.dio'can afford to help the party
thifs bus yet (I0119 so: A vast
sum of rrtoiicy ' is necessary to
meet the legitimate expenses of
a national campaign and Mr.
Bryan and the national Democratic
committee have hit upon
ilu happy plan of asking the
Democratic press?daily, weekly
and SeiVd-weekly ? throughout the
cduntry to open their columns
^for contributions.
* The Fort Mill Times claims to
be; above and beyond everything
else, a Democratic paper?we believe
in the righteousness of the
principles of the party as we
believe in few other things in
this'old world. Consequently it
aifordJ iig a great degree of
pleasure to appeal to the readers
of The Times to come forward
with such contributions as they
are able to make in this most
worthy cause. This is the people's
fight and the people must
finance it. It is the fight of the
masses against the same old
gang of South-haters who four
years ago robbed thousands of
widows and orphans by plundering
the treasuries of life- insurance
companies that the most
colossal faker since the down of
Creation?Theodore Roosevelt?
Vnight be given another lease of
Official life to do the bidding ef
such money magnates as J. Pier'pont
Morgan, John D. Rockefeller,
E. H. Harriman and Nelson
W. Aldrich. The Times will
make public announcement of
every cent that is received and
the money will be forwarded
promptly to Governor Chas. N.
llaskell, of Oklahoma, National
Democratic Treasurer. There
are scores and scores of Demo
crats in this section of the State
who are interested in the success
of the party and who can afford
to contribute to this fund. Will
hot each and everyone of them
subscribe something in aid of
the party? Any amount above
25 cents will be received and
acknowledged.
It is somewhat singular that in
selecting the 15 members of the
State National Guard who will
soon go to Camp Perry, Ohio, to
participate in the interstate rifle
^Qntest, under control and direction
of the Federal government,
that only two members of the
team are from the First regiment.
The preliminary contest
Was held in Charleston last week,
;with the result that the team is
to be composed of 9 members of
the Third regiment, 4 of the
Second regiment and 2 of the
First regiment. We do not charge
that favoritism was shown
in the selection of the team,
but it is passing strange that
such an overwhelming majority
Qf good marksmen are members
of the Third regiment, especially
shifce it is a patent fact, admitted
by disinterested military critics,
that jn pnnt of efficiency the
First regifnent is easily the supe^
rior of pith#?r of tho turn ntKflir
, ? ? ?.W..?' W* VI IV/ H? V v/tuv I
regiments. Strange that the First
regiment has such poor marksmen.
Perhaps they are not such
poor marksmen after all, and it
might be that a more accurate
score of their shots could be kept
if the preliminary contests were
held hereafter in the upper part
pf the State.
Our Northern friend, the editor
of the Rock Hill Record, is
amazed, he says, at an editorial
squib about the Saye road law
which appeared in the last issue
of The Times. He is also "curious
to see what reason an intelligent
newspaper man can give for opposing
gbod roads." To satisfy
the curiosity of our very inquisiIive
neighbor, will say that we are
ar from being opposed to good
oads, having in our last issue
iubllshed several short items ad's'
* v...
L< ""**
.vocating better highways. As to j
pur position on the Saye law, we ,
cannot say that we favor it in its .
| entierty. One objection is that j
the law provides for no exemption,
another objection is the age
limit of 18 to 55 ypars, ftnd another
is that we do not consider
the law practicable as it stands.
Other reasons could be given for
pur opposition to this particular
good roads law. but as The Times
is not in liae for lengthy controyersies
over the blunders and
misdoings of our law-makers, we
hope that the foregoing reasons
will have a soothing effect upon
the "curiousness" of our Record
friend.
Should the Rev. Mr. Hurt,
York county's preacher-candidate,
succeed of election to the
House, it will be interesting to
see how a combination of religion
and politics, of the York
kind, will work together.
Our business men should not
allow filth and rubbish to accumulate
in their back lots. Such
things are breeders of disease.
Will We Let the High School Go?
As a result of the recent school
election against issuing bonds
for the improvement or renewal
: of the school building, it is not
unlikely that the Fort Mill graded
I school will lose its high school department
9th and 10th grades.
In a letter to Rev. E. S. Reaves, |
chairman of the high school I
aboard, Prof. W. H. Hand, of the
University of South Carolina,
who was instrumental in the establishment
of the high school,
asks for information as to the
exact dimensions, etc., of the
present building, and expresses
the opinion that under present
conditions it is extremely doubt-1
ful whether further State aid
for the higher department can ^
j be had. Such an expression
j coming from one who is as well :
posted in State educational matters
as Prof. Hand should cause
i our people to bestir themselves
and prevent such a public calam- '
! ity.
As stated in these columns a
short time ago, it is our honest
belief that the people of this district
are perfectly willing to tax
themselves for enlarging and re|
modeling our school building.
And it might be stated here as
our opinion that the proposition
! would not have lost out in the
1 late election except for certain :
! unfortunate conditions existing
in the school at that time. However,
the future of the school
. seems brighter, and would very
much regret to see it take a
! step backward.
The Times wishes to see im- i
j provements made, whether or ;
' not the high school department
is to be maintained, and that;
1 improvements are needed will be
soen by anyone who will take j
the trouble to visit the building.
But it is useless to talk of this
matter, as it has been fully discussed.
What is now squarely
before the patrons of the school
is whether they will take steps
to improve the building and continue
the higher department or \
allow the building to remain as it
| is and let the high school go.
The Abuse of Blease.
Editor The Times:
Cole L. Blease, candidate for ,
governor, may have made mis!
takes?who has not??but it:
does not lie in the mouth of some 1
of those who have recently rushed 1
into print to criticise him. For
instance, W. F. Stevenson, of
Cheraw, makes serious charges in
j his home paper against Rlease's
; honor, but he fails to tell the
i people that he (Stevenson) while
speaker of the house of representatives
a few years ago was
accused of using the influence of
his great office in behalf of the
Seaboard Air Line Railway in
1 matters which were up for con- i
sideration by the house, the
1 charge against Stevenson being
that he was at the time in the
employ of the Seaboard as attor-J
ney. The people of South Carolina
rendered in no unmistakable
terms their opinion of Stevenson
i when he ran against Attorney
General Gnnter n fow
( ? . ~ ? "JS'-'.
and I submit that it is therefore
up to Stevenson to keep under
: cover. Furthermore, all this
abuse of Blease will not take
from him one vote. The people
are onto the crowd that are de-;
crying him. York county cannot,
of course, elect the governor,
but it will certainly give Blease a
majority. Democrat.
J. Henry Garrison, of Gray
Court, who shot and killed J. L.
Williamson because he caught
him in improper conduct with
Garrison's daughter, made the
, greatest mistake of his life. The
-evidence is that Williamson ex1
pected to marry the girl and had
made business arrangements to
that end. But even if he had
not, Garrison might have found
a better way out of the difficulty
by compelling him to do so. By
his rash act Garrison has ruined
himself arid daughter for life and
accomplished no good whatever.
Of course, he will be acquitted i
under the "unwritten law," but
only after the publy hearing of
some testimony that will be cruelly
humiliating to Garrison and
his family. Free Lance.

Gold Hill Happenings.
To the farmer, this is the happiest
time in the whole year. He
has forsaken the long face that
has for so many days disfigured
his appearance and caused his
neighbors at times to wish they
were not quite so near. Quite a
dilferent expression adorns his
being now, however. The prospects
for the best crop he has
ever known; the unusually large
crop of fruit and watermelons;
the pleasant atmosphere which
surrounds each of the numerous
picnics; the fact that he is going
to bear a prominent part in the
approaching election, how could
he be of other than a gay spirit?
The series of meetings that
have been in progress during the
past week closed Tnesday, after
a week of spendid preaching and
great results. The protracted
meeting began at Flint Hill Sunday
and will continue through
the week.
The Brown's Shop picnic was
not a "dry" one by any means,
the speaking commenced in the
morning, and was expected to
continue in the afternoon, but
the rain washed away all their
hopes. The Gold Hill band furnished
music for the occasion.

Mrs. J. G. Edwards and daughter

for Braidentown, Fla. Miss
Faris will engage in teaching in
the graded schools at that place.
Mrs. T. M. Faris is visiting

Faris. Quite a number of Gold
Hill people attented the annual
Tirzah picnic Saturday.
Readers Should Be Warned.
Readers of the Sunday papers,
and especially women and children,
should be warned not to reply
to advertisements offering
"free" and "gift" articles. So
soon as a reply is received the
advertiser sends a box of trashy
trinkets to be sold and the money
remitted and promises that the
"free" and "gift" articles shall
be forwarded. As you do not
care to turn peddler without a
license and as no stamps are inclosed
for the return of the goods,
the box is put aside to be called
for. Nobody calls for it, and
the matter is soon forgotten.
But at the end of the year a
mail order collection agaency
writes you a threatening letter,
accusing you of "intent to defraud"
and demanding payment
for the forgotten goods under
the extreme penalties of the law.
Most of the threatened persons
send the money, because the
the amount is comparatively
small and because they do not

legal proceedings. The proper
course when caught in this trap
is to transmit the documents to
the postmaster general. But the
fraudulent game must be very
profitable, for large factories in
New England are supported bv
it, and it advertises largely and
maintains several so-called magazines
to circulate its misleading
"free" and "gift" offers through
the clogged mails.?Ex.
Mr. Culp's Narrow Escape.
? An accident Saturday which
came near resulting seriously for
Mr. W. M. Gulp was narrowly
averted by the timely intervention
of Mrs. Gulp and son George,
when Mr. Culp's clothing caught
fire from an oil stove. The tank
on the stove had leaked oil onto
some of the stove frame work
and caught fire from the lighted
wick. In attempting to take the
tank off, Mr. Culp spilled oil over
over his clothes and in a flash
was in flames. His call for help
brought Mrs. Culp and George
and they pushed him into the
the porch where Mrs. Culp quickly
extinguished the flame with
some wet cloths which she
snatched from the water shelf.
With the exception of a slight
burn'on Mr. Culp's hand, no one
was injured.

Candidate Wilton's Plan For Building
Good Roads.
Mr. Wilson, Is discussing the road
law. spoke as follows:
"I am pleaded to see that the people
are Just now more Interested In obtaining
gbjjd roads Mian In any other
question, recognizing the fact that the
development and prosperity cf the
country and Increase In land values
are involved In the question. We all
know that under the present law permanent
good rouds can not be obtained.
The demand, therefore. 1 < for a change
In the law. A new law Is wanted that
will give permanent good roads, und
that, to(9< without unnecessary delay.
But tiny ro^id yyst.em that will bring,
about these results must cost money,
and If results are not to be delayed It
will cost big money?not big, however.
In comparison with the results to be
obtained. Upon the most reliable Information
obtainable, permanent good
roads can not be built at a cost of loss
than from $1,200 to $2.tUX) per mile. It '
Is estimated that there are In York |
county about 1,000 miles of public roads,
but I take It that the permanent Im- '
provement of any 250 or 3<i0 miles of |
the principal highways, so laid out as
to extend equitably through every '
township, would satisfy the present de- |
mat?d,s qf the people of this county. To
do this In a proper way will cost say '
$400,000. I tuke It that the people are |
willing to pay an annual property tax
of two mills to bring about such a re- '
suit, and under the plan which I wish |
to suggest It can lie accomplished under
an annual levy of 2 mills.
"Let the county of York Issue bonds |
in the sum of $400,000 or more, bearing
interest at 4 per cent., payable In
40 years from date, with the privilege |
reserved to the county of retiring them
at any time after, say 10 years. Let
these $400,000 worth of bonds then be I
distributed among the different town- ,
ships in proportion to the assessed valuation
of property jp the several town- I
ships?the proceeds of the bonds so apportioned
to suid townships to be ex1
pended in that township, under the di- I
recth-n of a board composed of a town- ,
ship commissioner, selected by such
township, and the county board of comi
missions and the county road engineer. ,
The moneys to le deposited In the
hands of the county treasurer, as the I
agent of the several townships and to i
he distributed by him upon the warrants
issued by the township commissioner,
countersigned and approved by
the county board of commissioners.
"lty this plan these permanent roads I
can be obtained now, and be enjoyed |
by the present as well as by future
generations, and under this plan they 1
would be paid for In part t?y the future
as well as by the present generation.
The roads built being pcrma- '
nent, it Is nothing more than right that
the future generations should be required
to contribute towards their es|
tablisliment and maintenance.
j "Under the provisions of the Sayc law
I by which n county engineer has already
I been employed to do the necessary cn- i
J glneering work, the greater part of the
surveys of the principal roads in the
j county will be finished by July 1, 19')D. i
so the preliminary engineering work
for this plan is already provided for.
[ and this permanent work could be I
I commenced in euoh township as soon as
I the $400,000 worth of bonds shall be
j issued, for it Is not likely that there |
w ill be any difficulty In promptly dis- ,
posing of 4 per cent, county bonds at
par or above. All permanent work |
should be done by contract, which con- ,
tracts should be let by the township
commissioner, county commissioners |
and county engineer acting together as ,
a board. '
"But under the provisions of the constitution
of this State, such bonds can
: not "be issued until the question of
j their issue has been submitted to the ,
vote of the people of York county, upon
a petition for such an election signed
by a majority of the freeholders of
York county, and unless it is further
approved by a majority of the qualified 1
electors voting on the question. You 1
see that it is a plan that is necessary
to be approved by a majority of
the freeholders as well as by a majority
of the electors. There can be no
J harm, therefore, in passing an act subi
mittlng the question to the people. ,
"This act would leave the money ,
| raised from the commutation tax. togethor
with the labor furnished by
I those liable to road duty, to be applied :
towards the keeping up of the other
I roads in each township not being perI
manently improved. For, under the
j proposed plan, where each township
| would have Its own road commissioner.
I think that those liable to road duty 1
should have the privilege of electing
to either pay the commutation tux or
else to work the required number of !
j days on the road, as I believe this old |
] plan would work satisfactorily under 1

commissioner con Id give closer at ten- i
tion and supervision than could be ]
given l?y the county board of commis- <
sioncrs.
"As to the county clmingang: I am
in favor of Its being used exclusively in
I the construction of permanent high- .
ways in the county under the super- '
> vision and direction of the county board
I of commissioners by being hired to the
road contractors in that township in
I the county making the best offer
therefor. 5
"Of course I can not attempt here <
to give more than a general outline of <
the plan proposed. The details di- i
. recting how it shall be carried out, of 1
i course, would have to be carefully and 1
, clearly worked out in the act passed <
| by the legislature, and the people of I
York county at the election upon the
I question of the issuing of the proposed
bonds would have the opportunity to .
1 approve or reject the measure as u
j whole. *
"After 'we have built this 250 or 300 f
miles of permanent roads we still have
several hundred miles of other public '
! roads that must he maintained and ' '
| gradually improved. The taxable prop- I '
' erty in this county for 1907 was 18.292.- 1 *
I 076. A levy of 2 mills on this present '
! valuation will raise some $1G.5S4. a sum '
> more than sufficient to meet the inter- ^
est on the $400,000 worth of bonds Is- 1
sued, besides paying the cost and ex- (
peases incident to the administration I
of the fund. And as the assessed value J
of property increases the 2 mill levy. k
! besides rnislng the money sufficient to
i pay the interest on bonds and cost of
administration, will also provide annu- (
: ally a surplus, which can be laid aside |
to invest as a sinking fund with which
to retire the bonds If deemed advis
I able. {
"In the meantime, I think the Snye s
law. which is a step In the right ill- 1
rection, should he amended and made j <
as strong and adaptable to the needs of i c
the county as possible and should re- 1
main in force until the people of the 1
! county wish to avail themselves of the 'J
! privilege of voting the bond issue re- j
fcrred to and adopting that system of i
| working tlie roads in the shapo of a t
new road law." \
