With even our one railroad these might be greatly improved by a little chsng' in its schedules If instead of spend ing the bight ih Walterboro. oai passenger train should inahe.tbe trip on through to Ehrhardt. spending the nights here, and starting from this point in the mornings.; U would give us two mail and passenger trains daily. With this schedule we could ra§ke two trips daily to Walterboro and return and one round trip daily to Charleston, with four hours and ’h quarter in which to attend to busi ness in that city. At the present "pjoor dying rate.” it lakes two days to mak** the round trip even to Wal terboro. The fact is, Ehrhardt office .|o arouse herself out ot^he dust and take a good shake! If her business men were organized into an active 'chamber of commerce, all such hind rances to her more ;apid progress might be removed. There is nothing like wise agitation with relentless determination. With such, even rev- olutiops have been anc are today be ing wrought. —Ehrhardt Correspondence. Bam berg Herald.
