It would be well for j all dog ownci < u? hear this ordinance in mind, The committee, in charge of se curing the name.s of all property owners to a petition asking an elec tion on the ' NVateree Mills being ex cluded from the city limits, have secured the necessary signatures for calling the election,, and it seems al most practically certain that the election will be carried when put to n vote by the people. The committee has not let up as yet, however, arid are .securing additional names. In the aftermath of the big storm long lists of contributors have been presented in this paper, which many have scanned carefully, and one is surprised tljat the contributions should eome"*TTt-+*i,//(piiekly and so lib erally, showing the spirit of help fulness to a marked degree; but there is one class of people who are conspicuous on account of their al> sence the mail order houses. Those people have been posing as public benefactors, but in the pinch, when friends were needed and when assis tance yyas imperative, there has been no response. Their frindships have reached only so far as thy dollar^ the present transaction was concern ed and when their customers really needed a helping hand there was no re.-ponse, although there are many here who have patronized them. It might he well for those who are now patronizing tfv mail order houses to remember that. the merchants and prof, ssipna! i:iei of Sumter arc much more inteie-ted in their pros perity than the mad order house, and also that in order to he friends one mu^t prove themselves friendly. ? - Su niter.
