TE3 SCAD QUESTION.
Some Sensible s'usrsestions on
the Puzzling Questioiu
Mr. Editor : ? la an interchange
of views sometime since with sev
eral gentlemen on the importance
of improving our public roads, I
promised to give my views to the
public, with the sincere hope that
a strong public sentiment will soon
ehrystalize into an urgent public
demand for the better working of
our public highways.
L nder the present road laws ef
this State a man can he forced to
woik twelve days durir?g the year.
Thid is, indeed a hardship to the
poor m un who has nothing to wear
out the loads but his feet, and it
is not equity between the State and
i hsr citizens to make a man work
for others is an indirect manner.
V\ ho is it that wears out the roads?
Is it uct horses and vehicles? This
being so, is it, not right to make
-those who wear the roads out work
them ?
The first step towards this most
desirable end is to repeal the pre
sent road laws and enact a general
road law applicable to all section^
of tiie State and not have different}
ia*s for each couatv ia some re- 1
*pecls as there now is. The only
wise and just way to keep our high
ways in good order is by taxation, j
It cannot he done by levying a poll
tall, because under the Stato Con
stitution, cnly one poll tax can be
levied and that goes to the schools.
If we should have a new form of
coun'y government the matter can:
be easily arranged, as it can be un
der the present form of county gov
ernment, "which is simply statuary
and not constitutional.
Let three township trustees be
appointed or elected in each town
ship to be known as road trustees.
Let their powers extend to the
making and annulling of contracts,
etc. Let them advertise for public
meetings in the Summer in those
townships where their jurisdiction
extends and at these meetings, let;
out the public roads in the vicinity I
of these meetings to the lowest com
petent bidder for the space of one
vear. The contractor should give
? O
a bond twice the size of his bid lor
the faithful discharge of his duties.]
Che sum that it would take to woik
the roads in each township should
he turned over the county commis
sioners, to be incorporated in their
estimate and levied on the taxable
property of each township, subject
to the check of the road trustees of
that township.
By letting out the roads each
year the tax may be lighter, for
when a road is worked one year,
next year it will take less to keep
it in good order. Specifications as
to how the hills should be worked,
should be known before a bid is
made. The heaviest tax would be
the first year. The contractor to
do all bridge work, which must be
contracted for in his bid and when
his road is finished, to receive his
check for the same, atter it is in
spected by the township trustees
and found up to the requirements.
The road trustees to receive so
much per day fat*-. their services to
a certain number of days. Of
course this is the general cost of
the plan and can be changed in sev
eral ways. This is about as just
and equitable a way that I kno'v of
and will aleviate the burden of the
poor to some extent, Let me hope
that Kershaw's Representatives
will grapple with this question at
the next session of the legislature,
and give us at least an improve
ment on the present system of road
working. J. E. Duprk.
WEATHER-CHOP BULLETIN.'
South Carolina Weather Ser
vice tor the Week ending
Monday. July 24, 18iK5.
The drought which has existed
for nearly five weeks over the
middle counties has been generally
broken by copious showers. These
showers have in most cases been in
spots, so that reports from any one
place in a county is no sufficient in
dex of the whole section. Within
a space of twenty miles the rainfall
varied from two to four iuches and,
although wherever good rains oc
curred crops have responded quick
ly, the distribution has been ex
tremely unsatisfactory. The show
ers prior to the 19th and 20th last-;
ed but a short time and were fol
lowed by such intense heat as to
steam the plants and render their
condition even more critical than
heretofore.
Cotton is growing and fruiting
nicely where it /vas well worked.
A good deal has been badly stunt
ed and can only make a f-ir crop.
Complaints are generally that the
plant is blooming near the top.
Corn is about ruined in many
couuties: the si .k is large but no
ears. Late planted corn will do
fairly well.
Peas, cane and potatoes doing
well, melons poor. Gardens burn
ed up.
Through the middle belt cotton
is doing well and though small is
fail of fruit. It will depend on
future seasons whether tiie fruit
will be shed or not. In some sec
tions the young fruit has already
begun to fall. The chances are
against a f crop even with the best
of seasons. Barnwell county re
ports no improvement in cotton in
past week. Fairfield county, how
ever, claims the plant has re
sponded quickly to the rains and
although the yield is a problem
for the next two weeks with a fa
vorable seasoulthey c^n make a good
August crop.
Old corn ia too far spent to make
much; the rains came too late to
do it anv good. Young corn, how
ever, with plenty of rain bids fair
to make sn average crop.
Gardens are about ruined in
most counties, watermelons pool,
potatoes ex<x'lient, peas look well.
Fruit scarce.

^ SH2 HAD A &BEAT HEAD.
isurglars Held up the Train but
She Held her Money.
[From the Jacksonville Times-Union.]
She wa? a charming young widow and
?he occupied a section on the Pullman
sleeper between Denver and Sun Fran
cisco.
The train was crowded and the atten
tion of the passengers was divided be
tween the winsome widowjand tlie young
Wriaal couple from the East, who, care
less of the comment their actions excited
continued to mak* love~l02a< h other with
! carressingjwords and eyes to their heart's
(content. "
The through passengers had become
like friends, and the lo >g w2Nl^nS
which the train rushed over roilinj? pra
rie and desolate alkali waste were made
short by pleasant converse.
It was one night when they were de
scending the western slope of the great
Rockies that the incident occured which
makes this story.
Several card tables had been estab
lished, and at one pf them the bridal
couple played as partners against the
pretty widow and a handsome young man
from Jacksonville, Fla., who was on his
way to Southern California. -
The game had ended and the voting
married couple wero victorious. They
were indulging .in a good-humored badi
nage at the expense of their late oppon
ents md asked if there was a*?y other
game than whist they could play.
'?Never mind," said the little widow,
"luck won't run your way always."
Seemingly in answer to her prwpheey
came the stern command, * 'Hands up !"
and at each end of the car stood two des*
peradoes with drawn revolvers.
The male passengers were taken bv
surprise and there was nothing to do
but obey.
Slowly the robbers went through tho
c:ir and as one held the cocked revolver
covering his victim the other secured his
valuables. [
When they came to the bridal cou
ple they made a rich haul, t!.e dia
monds of the bride and the well-tilled
purse of the groom and turned to the
widow, "Your money, *' iternlv. De
murely she handed over h*r purse anu
an examination showed the train rob
bers that it contained only a railroad
ticket, $3.."0 in cash and Southern Ex
press money orders for ?1 ,OCO. The
they confiscated, but politely handed
back the purse and money orders, saying.
"If all had yonr forethought eur occu
pation would be gone,"
The little widow married her hand
some young card partner in San Fran
cisco, and is now living in Jacksonville.

SURROUNDED BY SYSTERI!
1 A Great Mistake.
A rocets! discovery is that hoadache,
dlrzlness, dullness, confusion of tho mind,
etc., are due to derangement of the nerve
centers which supply tho brain with nerve
force j that indigestion, dyspepsia, neuralgia,
wind in stomach, etc., arise from tho derange
ment of the nerve centerasupplylng these or
gans with nerve fluid or force. This is likewise
true of many diseases of tho heart and lungs.
The nerve system is like a telegraph system,
as wlU be seen by the accompanying
cot. The little
white lines are
tho nerves which
convey tho nerve
forco from tho
nerve centers to
every part of the
body, just as tho
electric current is
conveyed along
the telegraph
wires to every
station, large or
small. Ordinary
physicians fall to
regard this fact;
Instead of treat*
ing the nerve cen
ters for the cause
of the disorders
arising therefrom
they treat* the
part affected.
Franklin Miles,
M. D., LL. B., the
highly celebrated
specialist and
fvtaaent or nervous diseases, and author
of many noted treatises on tbe latter *ubj??ct,
long since realized the truth of the lirst
statement, and hU Restorative -Nervine
is prepared on that principle. Its success
in curing all diseases arising from derange
ment of^the nervous system is wonder
ful. as the thousands of unsolicited testimo
nials in iKHsession of the company manufac
turing the remedy amply prove.
Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine is a reliable
remedy for all nervous diseases. *uch as
headache, nervous debility, prostration,
sleeplessness, dizziness hysteria, sexual de
bility, 8t. Vitus dance, opllepsy, etc. It Is
sold by all druggists on a positive guarantee,
or sent direct py the Dr. Mile* Medical (Jo.,

There arc all kinds ? good, bad
and indifferent, and when you
invest your money in one, you
will be wise to convince your
self that it is made by a fac
tory in which -you can place
complete confidence* Shiny
enamel and nickel plate are
good fer appearance only,
cheap, and can cover a ^multi
tude of llaws. If yo^ are
thinking of investing some
thing judiciously in a wheel, it
will pay you to get a
REMINGTON
catalogue from me, and exam
ine it carefully. There arc
many valuable improvements
in construction. The prices
will suit your pocket better
than a good many claiming to
be ''HIGHEST GRADE" and
you must know the Reming

of business has created an un
