I>uRo?e and W0 believe that if.thU body of men of the elty who have it# welfare at heart will get behind thin proposition, it will not he long before we kH aomothlng started along thi* line. It la estimated that tbe Kum exi tended upon the city'* st recta each year will amouut lo 'aixreen thousand dollar*- with no permanent result* if) view. Instead, of a bond issue being ;t burden upon the taspayer* It will prove a paying Invi^Uoent i?i the long riui. If is proposed lo call a mans meeting at some time iu the near fu ture to lake U?lx matter up. We know <?f several property owners r?n Main street who would gladly pay all the <lMrt of paving In front of their prop* . ?-rly In order to get the work aurtwl. Five hundred and . sixty barrel* of Mweet potato's were sold la/>t w^efc for the fMrnw-r- of Clarendon county by the Sontli Carolina Sweet Potato association. *Vhls association operate upon the. .>uui! plan a* the cotton mar ?ketins: association now being onran I zed and if (here is ?tlH any farmer who doubt* the value <A cooperative marketing a Mufly of what i< 1* doing for the t>ofato growers will remove VtK'h doubt, r The Chamber >f Commerce deserve* the thanks *it the public and especially of the citizens residing in West Wat* eriv in their- HUOtesyf hi efforts In ob lalning a reduction in fare* aero** the Wateree toll bridg". The Chamber has l?een working on this proposition for some time and we are glad that tln?i'r efforts have been 'aupoessful. Another matter the Chamber has un der way and that is Mvnriug i?ower from the Southern Power fV>.. for Cnm den. If they are aucressful in. this Undertaking it will mean the coaitng to f'nmdcn of several large industrial euterpriaea. some of which are praW tically as-hred Jf lliey enn get this l?owcr.
