BVBKY i, IfKIDAV ^ BY ' W% Xj. IwHoXDOW^X-iXj. nwmm ? uwm..? . "? | CAMDEN. R. a. NOV 18, 1904 H'j-aii ? .. . . Under the (eiuie of the Itrloo law the people of pherokee county have voted to give up the dispensary profits and to tax themselves half a mill in order to have prohibition. Tbe profits la?l year are ?m<j to bnve been $1,203.50 and it is esti mated that tbe special tax will pro duce $1,760, ao that the people of Cherokee aro willing to pay $:!,()<><) In order to oioee the dispensaries. There was a contest in Greenville county at the general election for Ibe office of Supervisor, 8proegle wae endorsed by tbe democratic ex ecutive committee, hut Walker think ing that the committe had acted wrong, decided to run in the gener al election, and received a miijoiity of the votes. What the result of this will be is hard to forucHut, but it In beleived by many to be the be ginning of the eud of the primaries' ( ?> Eastern Kershaw. Kd. Chronicle i ? If you will give a little spsce In your valuable col. umns we will try to give ft few run dorw items froui thin portion of the connty. Our farmers, notwithstanding tli*? scarcity of labor, aro nearer done gathering than Ihey usually nre ft l this season of the year. Vet, as a general thing, crops have been good, an<l the snftter'sl condition of our farmors, generully speaking, In per haps 00 good or better limn it u?u ally is. The scarcity of colored In lor on farms is very much in evi dence, a# compared willi twenty or even ten yoars ago. Willi this change has come n great change f? ?r Hie bet tor in quality of labor, as ninny of our farmers nre doing most of their work themselves, ? hence ono grand cause of the improvement in the type of our labor. In comparing the diameter of In bor now and twenty years ?gn brings to mind other things in which there have been great change*, nota ble among which is the grent im provement in our mail facilities; then there was one rnnil route lead i.irg from J? fferson to Camden, m<?k li'g one or two trips a week. But now instead ot weekly business those of us who are fortunate en oiigh to live on the free delivery] routes hayo our mail brought to our doors every day. Tn this respect we enjoy a convenience that even tunny towns do not. Ami yet in many parts of our county there is still room for improvement which we hope to aee made at an early day. The quietness that characterized the recent general election brings to mind the great contrast between an eleotion day now and ono about three decades ago. Then we had /negro mnnkgers of eleotion, were crowded and jostled at the polls by negroes led by whito carpet baggers and scalawags, who elected from their motley crew a gang of O! the picture in too dark to dwell n,H>n. But now we have, ns a rule, efficient, honest and honorable uffl " cials. True thero aro a few excep tions, but exceptions only prove the rule. While in most departments we sec a marked improvement, during the last quarter of a century, yet there is a'< least one department that suffers in the comparison, ? that of many of our public highways. True there is ?n Improvement in the comparative ly few plnoes that the chain gang is ab'e to reach. If we had the r i ? ? I > t kind of laws properly executed our highways would keep pace with other improvements. We are glad to note that, tho edu oational advantages enjoyed by the children of today arc far superior to those tliat Existed twenty- five years ego and they should duly appreciate these opportunity by improving them in every possible way.
