SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year $1.50 Six Months .90 Three Months T .60 (Strictly in Advance.). THURSDAY, JANUARY 11, 1923. The State Bond Issue. c ' ' " • ; e • Governor Harvey, has issued an invitation to the editors of South Carolina to meet in Columbia to day (Thursday) to discuss the pro posed $40,000,000 road program, re ference, to which was made in The People last week. There is much to be said pro and con on this subject, but we are of the opinion that it is jroinR to be a man’s size job to convince the tax payers of the feasibility of the pro ject, which is the first thinK to i«e considered. Then there seems to be a division of opinion as to disburs ing the money, there beinjj quite a bit of opposition to leaving the job to the State Highway Coommission. We doubt seriously if the people of Barnwell County will support the project, inasmuch as this county's proposed share would be only $26m.- 000, enough to build about ten miles of hardsurfared roads. However, The People is (roing to reserve its final decision until more is known about the details of the plan, the methods of raising the money. ar»d the manner in which It M ta be dis pensed and aach county’s share Statement of the Condition of ~ The Rank of Westers Carolina, Located at Barnwell, 8.
