Tiik tobacco industry has come to Horry to slay, Dust year there was a lit roe increase in the acreage over 1890, and this year, judging from all the indications, there will again be a large increase over the acreage of last year. We have reports from different sections of the county Idling of tin* new bat as going up. There are a few farmers who may leave off their tobaeoo crops this year, but the number of these is small in proportion to the number who will try tobacco this year for the first time. The prospects for Horry as a tobacco raisin# comity are good. Tiik recent lire burned two store buildings situated on two of the best business stands in the town. A large brick building on each of the lots made vacant will be a good investment to the owners and more o^V/U i u i I ri'|Hal-l I 1UU CM ll)(* occurrence of a week or two ago than wooden buildings. Wo had rather see wooden buildings than none at all, a> a matter of course, but brick build lgs are bettor and if the owners < f the property are able to put up bri k bui'dings we see no reason wV. brick buildings should not soon b> ;<n to go up. It seems to be the prevailing opinion that there is but little import ant work ahead of the Legislature which convened on last Tuesday, but why it is that the work ahead of it this year should be of less importance than the work accomplished by it last year, we are unable to see. In fact there is no telling beforehand just what work will come before a general assembly. It may seem, at first, that the body has but little to do, but as the session ad van ces. the work develops, and by the time the body adjourns, a good deal has been accomplished. We think it is quite likely that the Legislature, at its present session, will have plenty to do. It will be remembered that the I louse is new with a large proportion of new men, each one of whom will have his pet bills to introduce. IJesides the flood (if now lilllv I l)!ll will I... l..~ 1 v . ,.Vf( v*i*7 v I I 14 I 41 III \J\i III tl UUIUX'U , there \Nill be the usual bills to repeal the lien law, to regulate the privilege tax on fertilizers, to regulate hunting and fishing in the various counties, to repeal and amend the dispensary law, and a thousand and one other subjects too numerous to mention, It is utter disregard and carelessness of the best interests of local affairs that leads a man f<> try to ptilt down his county newspaper by saying that he can get other newspapers with more reading matter at the , same price. The average reader in i Horry county finds more to interest ' him in the Horrv Hkmai.o than he 1 (i ifs in the Columbia Stale or New j York World. There's move reading i ^ - "irnM?uniyimni mm -I I K I ? mat tor in the last mentioned paje.*.-. because they cover larger territories. but how much of it is ol inter est uml valu \ to the citizen of IIor rv county? This is the question which determines the value of the reading matter secured. Thought thinking man enjoys hiscountypa per because* he is interested in the intorprises of homo ami his home people, lie takes other papers as n matter of eourse to keep ap with outside altairs. hut the matters which interest him most are the matters pertaining to home and the e he oets in his loeul paper. There must he something lacking somewhere when a man loses interest in his home affairs ami when a man says that his county paper i* not worth a dollar a year, he says it in utter ignorance of the amount of work and expens" that it takes to tfet it oat. Result of Carelessness. Three robberies of the dispensary at Kinfjstree within the space of a year, seems to indicate a carelessness on the part of both the ollievrs of the law in Williamsburg county and the citizens of thutcounty It was certainly an net of criminal c ire lessness for the county board of con iroi to allow dispenser I'layer to be without bowl under such circum* stances. It is strange that the people did not ask for a removal of the board from ollico string that they allowed th dispensary to bo kept in a building that was unsafe and the dispenser not required to deposit t he money in some bank for safe keeping The papers state that he had not made a deposit in the last month or t wo be Tore I he robbery. The people should always wateh carefully the men whom they have placed in olliee. While they aiv apt to have the ri^ht men in most instances, they "slip up" sometimes and the p jblic alTairs are placed in the hands of men who care little for anything except the emoluments of the ofticos they fill. The people of Kingstreeand Willhunsburg county were unusually hard to take warning, but they have become aroused at last and will not leave a single stone unturned. Thousands Sent Into Exile. Every year a largo 'lumber of poor sull'erers whose lungs are sore and racked with coughs are urged to go to a not h vr climate. Hut this is costly and not always sure Don't he an exile when Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption will cure you at home. It's the most infallible medicine for cougs, colds, and all throat and Lung diseases on earth. The lirst dose brings relief. As founding cures result from persistent use Trial bottles free at Dr. H. Norton's. I'rice f>t)c. and $1.00 Every bottle guaranteedHe would Not Plant Cotton. Allow me space to say to the farmers of Horry count; that if they don't mind they will be caught in a trap in 1001. A year or too ago we got \ and ;> cents for our cotton. In 11)00 tlicy put the price up. It may be for nothing else than to get us to buy more guano and make bigger accounts. Suppose we have these accounts to pay with I or f> cent cotton. The low price of cotton caused us to go into raising tobacco. We should never forsake our crops of corn, rice, potatoes and peas. It will not do to raise cotton and tobacco to buy something to eat with. But if we intend to plant a money crop, let us plant tobacco for there is live times as much money in it as in cotton. Study the matter care fully. Because you got S to 11 cents for cotton this year, is no reason you will get the same price in 11)01. This is the view 1 take of the mattor and if anybody takes the opposite view 1 would be glad to hear from him in the columns of the IIkkaM). 1 like to take good advice as well as to t ry and give it. .1.
