ami the Oovonior ha> ap|?olnted Wh6
cver was nominated. with tUo. advice
ami consent of tlio Sena to. The demo
eras of Kershaw County still have the.
right to say wllQ slial sene litem. As
tho tonus of those who have boon ap
pointed expire, those who aspire to
tlui position may l.?o required to go luto
tho primary Just as they have In the
past. No right has hedn taken away
from the democratic voter of Kershaw
t 1< Mitt I v . They still I lit \ e I Ih? right <tO
p sm ii|M>n the qualifications of those
who desire to serve the County In
that capacity. <lf they de&itv to Oxerclse
that, right. We made the tonus expire
at Intervals so that at no tluie would

cxjierleneed men. I understand that
every meiikhr of the old board has stilt
ed tiiat he would not ltaye offered for
re- election at the expiration of his term.
ho that If we had left matters, stand
ing as they were we would certainly
lutve had a now hoard. .
Now as to the l>ond Issue hUl ; this
hill was not framed, as lias Ikh'ii .stated,
to take away from the ?i>eoplc tlie right
to pass upon the (pies t loll of tlie Is
sua nee of tho bonds. It simply pro

holders of Korshw County petition fot*
the election within thirty days from
tho date of the first ]mblldatU>n Of
the notice, .that tin* bonds will 1k> Is
sued without an election. By getting
out ? dozen copies of tho i>otltlou and
iplacing them In public places through
out the county, more than half of the
free holders of the county will have
within" one week had. au opportunity
to sign it and no itorsbn will need to
have lost more than thirty minutes
time. Representatives fne*n a number
of other counties, men. who ilf their
names wore called would he rccognlsscd
In any section of South Carolina as
?men of standing, integrity ami ability,
and who have time and again demon

W any change in tla* labor situation,

Voilf delegation lia.s no personal In
terest in the% matter Inut we do want
to set* Kershaw County get Home ro.tds,
and if an election Is ordered and tills
boildi issue is not earrled. It will pfoh
ably la* years Indole another ImhkI Ismic
will he agitated. There is a law on
the statute hooks giving any township
in any county In South Carolina the
right to hsue IhiihIs for the huildlng
and maintenance of roads, after an
election has boon held upon petition
of onO-third of the free holders of that
township and election has enrrled,
l>ii t no township hi Kershaw County
has taken advantage of that Act. and
it is doubtful If they ever will.
1 Is'llevc that one third of the free
holders will slgji the petition, and that
an election Will he ordered, and I trust
every citizen, will before he casts bis
vote, consider the condition of the roads
in this County, as compared with the
conditions of t lie roads of our adjoin
ing counties after they hnVe. expended
their money and built their roads, and
remembering that you can't wet some
thing for nothing, vote for the bond is
sue apd help pull Korslmw County out
of the sand and holes. I
If some of those who are complain
ing so loudly aland the bond Issue will
turn their attention U> the cquallz iHou
of the taxes in Kershaw- County they
will find a field wherein they ch!ik be of
some actual service to the in*o<ple. It
the large corporations and the wealth
ier crtlsjens returned 4all of their prop
erty upon the required basis of forty
two cents on the dollar, we could pay
the Interest on the lioiuls and provide
for the .sinking final without raising
the taxes of the poor man and the man
in moderate means one cent. When a
forciun corporation; which owns prop
erty in ithis County which has cost
it more 'Iha'u eight million dollars Is
allowed to get by with a rejurn of a
half million dollars*, and when some of
our larger home eoi'inoratlons arc al
loWed to return their holdings at one
Jehlh of what they would take for
them, it is time for some one to get
busy. There Is on the tax laioks- about
>i\ million dollars from which all reve
nue must be raised. If 'the one cor
point ion mentioned above was required
to return it's property at forty- two jH*r
cent of it's actual value them would
be a reduction in the levy of as nuich
:is* thirty-five per cent. I
