IS MARLBORO IN THE LEAD ?
. In progressive agriculture we believe
she is. Can she hold her place ? Not
with thc roads she is willing to put up
with Unless public attention is direct
cd,to thc necessity ol road building.-not
r?ad'working, we have done that all our
lives and still have no roads worth the
name-wc will surely lose our place.
Richland county, whose natural pro
ductiveness, tails below ours, is leading
i i j, ; i 11 away bum us in road building.
.Two years ago her chain gang under a
wise superintendent began road building
I rom Columbia out on the roads lead
ing into thc city, Years ago thc writer
lived in Richland county and used the
Garner's Ferry road In going to and Irom
Columbia. Some of Marlboro's older
men have traveled the said road Irom
Columbia to Camdon-.and know what
it means to go over a road whose depth
of sand is unknown. The Garner's Fer?
ry road was like the.old Camder road,
and now each have been transformed
into roads equal to the best streets in
the city ol Columbia.
I verily believe our "Commissioners
should go over to Richland county and
inspect and make a study ol their sys
tem, Clay upon sand and sand upon
clay. During thc Reunion in Columbia
Irst week I rode out on Garner's Ferry
road 8 miles through a sand section that
was built two years ago. and has never
bad anything done to it since.
That road is made over 13 miles. My
friend's horse never broke his trot alter
leaving Columbia till wc reached his
bome-8 miles distant in('4s minutes, and
he was not heated in the least. He told
r me that with two mules he hauled to
town the same loads that two years ago
required 4 mules
Years ago some of us began to agitate
the need ol a stock law. We got it after
.uvhilc. The rest is history. Would wc

living on thc road 1 traveled recently ii nu
he'll convince you that road building is
thc next big move "lorward "that South
Carolina should make.
Thc building ol a white Republican
pariy in South Carolina so eagerly look
ed lor. by those wanting positions in it,
and some others, dwindles into a shadow
aj compared to our need ol good roads.

Mr. ICditor-On the night ol the 7th
Mr. J. 1). Stanton, Supt. on Mr. C. S
McCall's Pipkin place, was aroused by
?.quails of a dog as it engaged in a light,
Ile immediately went out on bis back
perch and .lound a strange looking var
ment, Ile emptied his pistol at it and
it went out ol the yard very reluctantly.
Mr. Stanton went into thc house, got his
??un but belorc bc got out it had return 1
cd and seized his pup thc second time,
As bc approached thc animal ran out ot
thc yard and he shot at it with his gun,
but could not tell with what effect. He
began lo feel a Utile nervous, went into
the house and shut thc door,
The bear or whatever it was then went
over to Mr. Alex Chavis' and ran his dog
off. From there it went lo Mrs Mary
fjhavis' and lought her dog, a very large
cur.. From thc tracks made and other
signs on thc ground it is conceded by all
to bc a bear.
On Friday thc 10th one ol Mr. Henry
Cottingham's hands saw something walk
ing a pasture lenee near a bay. ile re
ported the lact, a large crowd gathered
with guns and went in search, and soon
jumped two large loxes-or supposed to
be. While in pursuit they found a nest
oj' seven young ones, but it is very doubt
lui whether they be loxes or not.
Mr. James F. David happened to be1
near alter the capture and got a pair ol
young ones irom Mr. Stanton, and has
them on exhibition at bis home, Those
who have seen them say they never saw
anything like them bclore.

Though it may bo'a digression from tho

aa appointment nOout eight miles from

warming a littlo I enid to thom: Ureth

into tho church aud attempt to hold a
regular service we ahull suffer, and 1 thiuk
it would bo prudent for UR to havo a short
Rorvico and then repair to our bomen Ono
brother who waa moved by a zeal not ac
cording to knowlodge snid: ''No wo oamo
boro t) hear preaching and I want you to
preach." I replied if that was tho senti
ment I was ready. Wo went iu had tho
preliminary oervieo. I annouaoud a text
and preached just fifteen minutes during
that time I noticed my zealous brother was
shaking Uko an aBpon loaf. When wo oamo
outl remarked to him that ho soomod to
gob very cold during tho Borvloo. Yes said
bo you preached eo long. Fifteen minutos
toa mansufferinS with oold listening to

From tho days of Robert Purnoll all down

An extraordinary race was wit

train and a barn; and tho barn oame

It was headed direotly for tho truin.
On tho way .it pieked up a barn
bodily and brought it along. Tho
engineer seeing tho tlangor to tho

put on full steam. Tho barn was
rapidly gaining, however when tho
