The 'prosperity of the farmer
means the prosperity of Hie business
man.
We can call this an unusual season
of prosperity and while it lasts we
nood all over the county men of push
and energy who will develop our
resources while the conditions arc
favorable.
Has the election settled it that
the truets are popular with the masses
of the people? This is the claim
of some of the Republicans, but of
course they are mistaken.
Til K increase in t he amount of
freight brought to Conway at the
present time by the railroad and
steamers during the last few vcars
/is amazing. The same thing can be
rnmmmr sa*u] ()f the amount of freight, hauled
away.
To make a town grow ifs citizens
^ should be liberal and offer inducements
that will cause people to lo
cate there Those who own lob
should be willing to sell them at ;
reasonable figure or if they will not
sell they should build dwelling
houses and ofTt r them at a reasoha
bio rent to thou ho would become
tenants. Suppos one man owne<
all the building 1. ts in the-town o
Conway and he si refuse tosel
or rent them at a fair nriec. Undei
such conditions the town would bt
apt to remain forever just as it is.
The first year of our experience
with the Horry Ifeh ai.i> expired!
few days ajjjo When we took chare*
of the county paper we state 1 tha
wo would make every effort in on
power to run it in the interest o
the whole people. Thai we shouh
try to keep in view the upbuildinj
and advancement of both town am
county. How well we have succeed
ed, we leave for our many readers t
say. We felt that we needed th
help of the people to make the pape
wtmt it OirthM Un 'PI... I-"
I w UilVUlU I.M 1 IH.* Ifl/lMJIl." 1IU>
stood by us and lent their ussi>
tanco and s'ympathy. We than
them. As we enter upon the seeon
year we still ask the cooperation c
the people in trying to make th
Horry ii j|jiai.i> a good newspapei
We have trie advantage of one year
experience and we will try to use i
to the best advantage in making th
second year better than the first.
Tiik increase in the population <
Horry as shown by the census figure
is 21 3-10 per cent. We believe it i
safe to say that the increase is ei
tirely among the white populntio
and that the colored population lui
decreased. During the last tc
years a great number of colored me
have emigrated from this state t
engage as turpentine hands in (loot
gia and Alabama. The turpentin
business in tins county is some whs
on the wane, while there is a grec
, demand for hands in the above mer
tioned states in some parts of whic
1 I,. ; I . a .
L
? ?
is easy to see how the while populn >
tion lias inerouscd Iloinewood j
colony near Conway has (
tjuiie a number of riosiruble * iti/.mis
Several lumber companies have been
established in the county and they
employ white laborers from other
states and counties. And white
farmers in search of locations have |
found good farming lands in this
county at reasonable prices. The '
last few years huv ? shown that our (
lands are adapted to the culture of
tobacco and perhaps that lad has
j induced some farmer* to select Hor- ?
ry a1*, a home. Tlu? growth and 1
prosperity of all of our industries (
and business enterprises lias added t
white citizens to our populntion in
almost all instances.
Tilk timber of this and adjoining
counties will, before a ;_rrcat number
of \ ears, become exhausted, if the
present rate at which it is beino
used is continued. A larpe proportion
of the timber on our limber ,
lands is already in the hands of :
lai'K'e lumber companies and they i
will soon bejiin to make prepnra- }
tions to take the 1 iinber away. It
ts evident that in the course <-I' '10 <?r (
10 years, lumbering ami naval stores ,
as a means of making money in I lor
ry county will lie eomp.irat i \ > i v a
tiling of tin* pa-t. Suppose litis
turns out to he the case, will it be
the worse for the people? We do
not believe it will.
The substantial wealth of a nation
or state is found in its agricultural
resources. The most independent
people on the I'aeo of the earth are
those who depend upon the soil for
a living. Put a man into a new
world to make a living and almost
by nature, he looks lirst to the fo.est
because there he gets quicker ret urns
As the forest becomes exhausted he
gradually turns to the soil. A great
number of our people make a living
entirely from the forest, chipping
the trees and gathering the naval
stores, or hauling the logs away to 1
make lumber, staves or shingles.
Kre long they will begin to tind it
impossible to get along at these occupations
ami they wiii their
attention more ami more to the cul
tivation of the soil. This, we predict,
will result in making the eowu
try more prosperous and wealthy.

Reply to Petition for Passenger
Train.
Following is the reply of Mr. .1. 1!
Kenlev to a petition of citizens of
Comvay asking for a passenger
' train on this road. As it explains
the status of tho matter and is of
fClierUI IIIUMTSI WO plIIMISll It 111 lUll,
i Mil. 1). A. Sl'IVKY,
( Conway, S. C.
Dear Sir: ? Your communication
of the 10th ult. enclosing a petition
r from the citizens of Conway for in.
creased t rain service on t lie Con way
, branch was duly received, and 1
very inueli regret that my continucd I
absence from inv ollice lias pre/entf
ed an earlier reply.
I While it is always our pleasure to
r comply with the requests of our
patrons as far as we can consistently
do so, 1 very much regret that
the request of the petitioners would
require of us a double train service
j* and would practically place the pns(
^enoer service upon the same schedule
it had prior to January 181)1), J
which was discontinued on account j
t of it 's beino unsatisfactory.
! Owino to the uncertain movement
I of trains on the main line, which are
. controlled by our connections south
of Charleston, we cannot fix a prac4
tieal schedule to run from main line
d train No. at to Conway and back to
[. a connection with main line train
No. 55. This schedule was tried for
a jjood while, and, as you probably
0 rememl)or, resulted in many miss- |
r connections. Wo think, therefore, J
e as i ih* con(i11 ions 011 i no main line
remain unchanged it would be n
i great mistuKe to attempt to make
% the old schedule.
d Your petition also requests a
>f double service, that is four trains
0 where we are now running but two.
T lis would incur a large additional
' expeuse to the Company, which the
s business does not at all justify. 1
it believe after the most careful const*
(1 deration and after an experience of
a year or so that the present service
is the best and most satisfactory we
can arrange for this branch as long I
C as the trains on the main line run as
they do now and other conditions
remain unchanged.
|s I hope the petitioners will give
1 this letter careful consideration,
n and 1 believe they will agree with us
that the conditions and additional
IS expense that would he incurred if
" additional train service was put 011'
n will not justify the Company in ihuk
(, irg the change requested.
With regard to the coaches on 1
these trains. Our Transportation I
1 Department advise me that they
d ; have already made some, changes in
it j the concltcs and hope to make others
, i that will improve this feature of the
. J service,
Yours very truly,

Cuba's Future Government.
If the I'resident of the United
States approves the constitution, he
wilt submit it to Congress for tlie
! ratification of that body. Congress
i having assented. the organic act ot
| the now state will be officially proI
claimed, parliamentary and presi'dontial
elections will be held in the
[ islands, and in due time the Cuban
republic will take over tho governman!
from the hands of the Prosilent
and his representatives. The
n.:w Cuba will 1)0 a nation, but not a
sovereign power. It will not ben
part of tho United States; neither
the American Constitution nor the
American flag will extend over it,
and no great constitutional question
is to be raised as to its status. Cuba
will not be a vasscl state, because it
nerther pays nor can ever be asked
to pay tirbuto, directly or indirectly.
Inwardly, Cuba is to have the independence
