Many public improvements have
been made, and are in process of
making, and to foster these it *s
necessary that the city government
lie composed of progressive men,
whff are willing to devote sufficient
of their time to accomplish results
for the good of the community.
These men should he leaders in
progressive thought and action, nnd
the position of Mayor, therefore,
carries wittU it responsibilities.
Where I stand .on these 'mattetw-
is known to the citizens of fhe town,
and I have ever striven* to advance
the best interests of the town In
eytfry way -possible. . As mayor J

CARO PROM MR. ROBKRTHOX
Round, April 3.—EditorPrees and
Standard: Please allow me space in
you valuable paper to reply a word
to Mr. “Voter." He asked how the
money waa spent and where, jn his
first article he said the chain-gang
worked on the line road between
Sheridan and Glover townships. Why
did he not see after that. He had
as much right at that time as I did.
That, was January’. 1915. I. got my
commiifsions March 15, 1915. Sd
you see he is talking and don't know,
and about Stokes’ Ferry Bridge; the
highway commissioner of Colleton
and Dorchester counties sold out the
bridge and paid for it and I had
nothing to do with it. except I did
ask the codnty lawyer lf .it w-as right’
for the money to come out nf Sheri
dan township for the building of
sgid bridge and h" said it was. So.
Mr. Voter, seen 1 did my duty on
that. Well. Mr. Voter said I *!>«*"*
1394.55 on my own salarry. I did
not sak anything of the kind.
was mV Salary, and was all U got.
Ask the clerk if Mr. Voter don’t
know the difference between salary
and labor. I'would ask him please
go to the county commissioner's of
fice and ask the clerk for informa
tion, and she will tell hiih what I
^ot for salary and what 1 paid-for
Jabor. J also ask the public if they
please, If they, believe I got any
tpore than one hundred dollars for
salUiry to go to the county commis
sioner’s office and find out for them
selves. ■ . \ ' ♦ .
Well, ’he said "Never mind, the
legislature has delivered • us from
evil in my case." That speaks loud
for me. It sounds as df It is the
only way to defeat me, for the legis
lature to abolish the office. Unfor
tunately (or him, when he ran for
office it did not take the legislature
to defeat him. The home boys did
the work.
