That is a terse statement of a great ' truth. Thus far only Alabama and South Carolina have ratified the J proposed amendment to the Federal constitution authorizing the imposition of a tax on incomes, "from what ever source derived.' \ Unless Ithirty five States ratify the proposal the amendment,will j fail. If twelve States reject it or j fail to act upon it. the amend- i ment will not become effective.

The first issue of Cberaw's new ? paper, the "Pee Dee News," is- e med under date of March 8, has 1 oeen received. It is neat in get f up, is replete with interesting * reading and has a very nice lot of t idvertisemonts. and. iudcrincr bv ic the first issue, promises to be a i factor in the growth and development of Cheraw. Rev. J. S. Hartsell, the editor, although a I native of Pennsylvania, has lived 1 in the SouttTfor so long a time t that he has become imbued with I its spirit and ideals to such au ? extent that, with the exception s of a slight accent, in con versa- < tiou with him one would think r him "native to the manner born." With such a man at its editorial I helm, if we mistake not, the "Pee i Dee News" is bound to succeed, t Here's wishing it well on its 1 journey on the turbulent sea of journalism.- i 1 Smallpox in the Railroad Camps. s The last issue of The Chron- 1 icle contained a little item culled i from the Morven correspondeuco I in a Wadesboro paper to the cf- ? feot that smallpox had broken I jut in the camps of the railroad i contractor near Benuett. Early ' Friday morniug The Chronicle * was called up by Messrs. Sune- i strum & Stratton, the oonlrac- '* 4-~l J -.1 4- *1 * 4 jui a, uuu uum uiuii mere was noii < i word of truth in the report. ' rhe Chronicle cheerfully pub- 1 lishes their denial. We are too ^ far away to know anything about j the matter personally but supposed the Morven correspondent, living so-very near the camp, 1 inew what he was talking about. | A.nd while we are on this line the j following item from the Wades- j ooro Ausouiam will be read with 1 interest: * "The smallpox situation at the 1 railway camps is nnder good con- j ;rol and the county physician, j wn and the guard told her that et ) had instructions to shoot her It tad if sho tried to leave the li' imp.

' j ' tfk fhe Location of the New Coast. Line Route. Two weeks ago The Chronicle lt< sailed attention to information It lad to the effect that it was probible that the new route of ttifc j o a s t Line road Would go ^ o the west of Cheraw and if ^ luch a route should be adopted ^ ill of the through trains would >e detoured and Cheraw would jet only the local trains as now, md we called upon the board of ^ ,rade to take some action to se if iu re the through train service ^ 'or the town. m Nothing was done. c Now we learn the route has _ seen definitely located and that ihe road will make its turn near ihe present "crossing" south of the town and will run in a straight line through the Finlay- ^ son and McKay lands to a point >n the old route this side of rhompson creek. It is expected that through trains will be put on this road ^ ibout Oct. 1st. and they will, in the vernacular of the day, ' highoall" Cheraw. Now, what is to be done? Cheraw uiust have the advantage to g( pe secured by all these trains stopping at Cheraw, and the ouly wav we can see to secure this g much to be desired end now is p; for Cheraw to "get a move on" OI md prevail in some manner with the railroad authorities to move ^ ts passenger depot to a point on ihe road near the foot of Market street. Taking this matter up n the right way and right ^ iway, it might be possible to get the Seaboard to join in and there- ag py secure a union passeuger depot for Cheraw. which in t.hp * opinion of The Chronicle would ae a very happy solution of what P{ s now a very mixed problem. ***** di Well, The Chronicle couldn't at work up euthusiasm enough to jecure the formation of a "Boy's 3orn Club" in Chesterfield coun:y, but we want to plead with our farmer friends to encourage their n< ao'ys by giving them a corn patch OJ md assisting and encouraging -hem in an effort to break the world's record for number of aushels of corn on an acre of and.
