OUR CARTOONIST.
We desire to call attention to the
very good cartoons we are running,
"Hoptwice” is a cartoonist of no
mean ability. He has ait understand
ing of conditions that shows a broad
t • CJ
and comprehensive grasp of the pres
ent and future. If you will fodow
them from time to time you will find
instructive teaching of truths under
the guise of laughter. Of course the
truth each week is more or lees pun
gent as the demand for pungency
exists, and this demand does exist in
*
this county. We trust you will enjoy
these cartoons and that, while laugh
ing, you may resolve to Correct the
evils sought to be corrected.
THE B. E AND W. RAILROAD.
It seems that the people of Bam
berg, Ehrhadt and Denmark are de
termined to build the proposed rail
road from Ehrhardt to Denmark
whether or not Walterborogives any
assistance. The people of these places
cannot understand why it is that
Walterboro has shown so little inter
est in this proposed road, though the
corporators are, we believe from
Walterboro.
It is a useless waste of words to
*
argue the need we have for such an
outlet. There seems to us no good
reason why some of our moneyed
men should not put some of their
means into a project that will be of
eo much worth to Walterboro. If
there are private interests here that
fear competition # we would lay down
tide broad proposition which would
be a aafe guide to follow: That
which opposes progress or improve
ment in a matter of targe interests
for the sake of private gain, and
those enterprises which fear compe
tition and would thwart It by oppos-
ting progress, will sooner or later
fail anyway. As Well attempt to
the incoming tide as to check
it
we would urge our
> men to take up this matter
i earnestness and aid all they can
flrihntafoig Walterboro.
