During the hot summer months many
dogs go mad. Almost every day now
the daily newspapers carry accounts
of persons who are bitten by dogs suf
fering with rabies. Would it be ask
ing too much of the owners of dogs
that they put muxzles on their pets
during the danger months 9 There
was once an ordinance to this effect in
Barnwell and ao far as we know it has
never been repealed, but it is not rn
forced. With so much at stake, it
seems to us that it should be made ef
fective and if K has been repesled it
should bi re-enacted and enforced to
to the limit.
But for the bravery of a young man
in Athurta last week several children
would have been bitten by a mad dog
Not kmg ago an anti re family was bit
tea at White Pond by a dog with rabies
Don't wait until it is too iate "An
ounce of prevention is worth a pound
of cure ” Surely the lives of human
beings should be protected
Let the city fathers pass an ordi
nance requiring the owners of dogs to
keep them tied at home. or. if they
must roam the streets, see that they
are properly muzzled
The People publiabea this week an
article on the repair and maintenance
of earth roads. It is readable and
should prove beneficial to thoae inter
ested in good roads.
In Mecklenburg County, North Caro
lina, thousands of dollars have been
spent in building macadamized roads,
but they are said to be unsatisfactory,
considering the amount of money in
vested. They cost more to build and to
keep in repair. On account of this fact
the sand-clay road has come into favor
in that county. This makes an excel
lent road when properly maintained,
as it is smoother than the macadamized
road. But they require proper atten
tion.
Tobacco will bring 1200,000 into Horry
county in the next sixty days.—Conway
Field.
And how much will old John Barley
corn take out of the county in the same
length of time?
Whoever says that the heat of the
past week was a state of mind is a fit
subject for the insane asylum.
When a man marries and settles down
he finds that at the end of each month
he is expected to settle up.

Savannah, Ga., July 6 —W. C. Mears,
of Tar boro, S. C., died in a local hos
pital this morning as t he result of a pis
tol duel with William Barnhill, of Till
man, S. C., at Tillman, Saturday even
ing. The cause of the shooting is not
known. Mears is survived by his wife
and two sons. His body was sent to
Tarboro to-night. Barnhill is in the
Tillman jail under arrest.
A SUNDAY HOMICIDE.
Willie Hayes, a Negro, Killed Edward
Jackson, Another Negro.
Edward Jackson, a negro, was shot
and killed about three o’clock Sunday
morning by Willie Hayes, also colored.
The homicide occurred on the place of
Dr. Weekley, near Ulmer, and was the
aftermath, it is said, of a darktown
frolic the night before. Magistrate L.
H. Williams, of Ulmer, held the inquest
and the verdict of the coroner’s jury
was that the deceased came to his death
by gunshot wounds, the gun being in
the hands of Hayes. Jesse Moore,
colored, was held as an accessory. The
two men and two negro women, who
were in the house at the time of the
alleged murder, were arrested and
brought to Barnwell Sunday afternoon
and lodged in the county jail. The
women, who are being held as State
witnesses, are also charged with va
grancy.
Few men are better than they seem
to be

The People believes in praising
county officials when they deaerve it
and in erlbrumg them when they are
derelict in the preformance of their
duty. By giving publicity to their acts

what's coming to him this week Not
long ago we had occasion to nde over
the Steel Creek road and were most
Sgrtesbly surprised to fiud it in ex
cellent condition. For years it has
been one of the worst sand-beds in the
county. Mr. Diamond has also done
some good work on other roads, but
there are still miles of road in crying
need of attention, and we feel sure
that he will work these in good time.

Very high opinion of the people of South
Carolina. Under a Gastonia dateline,
the Charlotte Observer of Sunday print
ed the following extract from a speech
delivered by the governor at the Red
Men’s celebration at Dallas:
“Since we have nothing but Demo
crats and niggers in South Carolina, I
could say almost anything down there;
but up here in North Carolina the peo
ple might not appreciate everything I
would say. “
That is a rather significant remark.
We take it that he considers his consti
tuency as below the average in intelli
gence and that, in their ignorance, they
are ready and willing to swallow what
ever he tells them.

“It certainly has no equal for la grippe, bad colds,
_ liver and stomach troubles. 1 firmly believe Black-Draught
J saved my little girl's life. When she had the measles, _
J they went in on her, but one good dose of Thedford s _
J Black-Draught made them break out, and she has had no
Jjj more trouble. L shall never be without ^
