Tiik lnun who sticks to his profession
may succeed, the chances are
that ho will; but the man who is
constantly changing his profession,
never can succeed at it. Take and
follow that plan which is more apt
to bring success.
Wk would be glad for Conway to
get on a building boom. Half a
block in the business portion gone
up in ashes, and a dozen families
wanting houses to live in, and if
buildings don't begin to go up now,
they hardly ever will.
Conway needs nothing just at thh
time more than she does a quiet
means of communication with the
outside world. Her citizens are ir
earnest about the matter and tho.y
intend to have something of the
kind before they give it up. Per
sistence is apt to bring its reward

A Bili. to compensate the victims
of thieves and miscreants was intro
duced in the Legislature by Mr
Aul, of Barnwell. It was promptly
killed as it should have been. It h
easy to see that the payment o
such claims, as they rise so often
would soon impose a great burdct
on the pockets or the tax payers.
The House of Representative!
killed last week the usual bill to ta>
the ,Jyaller dog" introduced this
time bv representative McCall
There is a similar bill on the calen
dar, which if not already killed b>
this date, will be snowed under as
soon as it is readied. As the law
now stands the people pay taxes on
dogs; aud any farther burden ir
this direction would be abnoxious.
Ouk Legislature is, as usual, eon
suming much time in the discussion
of measures. Some of the bills
would really become good laws il
passed, but many of them are rner
itless and would be useless legislation
in our opinion. It is useless
wuste of time to spend hour after
hour in the discussion of the merits
of anTfttltouro which, if passed, would
be of no practical value to ihe people.
A YKAR or two ago soma gentlemen
from Hennettsvillo were through

and the proposed now road was cal
led The Marlboro, Marion and Horry
Hail road. Nothing has, as yet,
been done under this charter, but it
is understood to be the intention of
the corporators to begin work on
; the road in the near future for the
purpose of keeping tlie charter alive
until sufficient means can lie procured
to put tlie enterprise through.
Tiikuk arc times when the citizens
of a community should take matU rs
into their own hands and act prompt :
lv. liv so doing they exert si pow
i crful restraint upon the deeds of
desperate law breakers.
On Saturday of week before last
a quiet eiti/.en of llueks township
received a blow"on the head, a death
blow in the dark very likely, from a
reckless character who perhaps lias
made good his escape.
When law abiding citizens see the
law violated, and have reasonable
suspicions for uspceti >g that a certain
person is tin perpetrator, they
should lose no time to have hitn arrested
and give him a hearing ae
cording to law, when, if he proves
himself guiltless he may be discharged.
It is not often that tliev will
be mistaken in the man, if tliev use
the proper judgment and discretion.
If a person is so connected with the
circumstances surrounding the commission
of a crime as to arouse sus
picions in the niiiul of a man of or
dinary inteligence, tliero are sufli
cient grounds to warrant his arrest
and detention fo a reasonable
length of time, especially when a
dangerous wound lias been inflict ed.

Tobacco Notes.
Aro your tobacco plaut beds ready.
Mr. J. U. Poythress who is in the
Western part of the county reports
to the Ware House the most entensive
preparation for tobacco that he
ever seen in Horry.
We would be glad to hear that the
planters in the Socnstoe section
i were going more largely in tobaeeo.
v That is a line country for the weed,
as evidenced by the success last year
of those who planted it. Clot at it
| friends, you will succeed.
The merchants and other business
men of Loris, S. C-, have decided
not to erect a tobacco warehouse

' there realize the fact that a large

arc working for both.
Mr. J. II Poythrcss is traveling
the county in the interest of tobacco
and doing some good work we
think, for his "old first love," the
ilorry Tobacco Ware House at Conway.
J. It. is a good advisor as
well as thinker.
Time and Tide wait for no man,
' so "take time by the forelock" and

f Capt. J. K. Coles of the Horry
, Ware house tells us that he is alj
ready receiving many inquiries about
the prospects of the Horry tobacco
crop. The Capt also states that the
buyers are interested in the trans5
portation of their purchases of tobacco
by boat, direct from Conway

water route than over land.
We copy from the Southern To'

CLASS LHQISLATURE.
Such Is the Child Lnbar Bill.
Kaunkkt advocate* of tlie bill prohibiting
child labor in the cotton
mills feel assured of the success of
the measure, but we doubt very much
tliut the bill will become a law. We
have tfood reasons to believe that it
cannot become a law at this session.
Such a law will hardly be passed so
loatf as our Lo<pslntuuc is composed
of indepe dent, five thinking, broad
minded men.
Those who form the taw do so
with nothing in mind except tlieed
I If . r

factory children. They never consider
the finuneial condition of these
children and their purer ts. They
never guess at the result such legislation
may in the end lead to.
The law would not only make a
hardship upon the factory owners,
and in many cases, perhaps, become
the death blow to cotton milling in
many of our towns where the industry
is in its infancy; hut if would be
the worst kind of hardship upon the
mill operatives. The mill owner
might be able to stand his part of
the oppression, but the operatives
and laborers could not. It is no use
dreading the assertion, because the
truth hud as well he told; the majority
of mill operatives are compelled
to work their children to help
support the fitmily. If the opera
n 11- 11 ] ci Mill* is cut (lOWIl Id Ills
wages alone, his children, if he have
uiany, must go half feci and half
clothed.
The object of prohibilitg t his child
labor in the mills, or one of the
main objects at least, is to gel the
children of factory people educated.
Sendii g to school is to be made con
pulsory under a certain age. Now,
| take the mill operatiuc with the
usual large family of children, and
'you will find that although he works
every child in the mill, and works
steadily himself, the income of the
family is not sullieient to feed them
and keop then decently clothed.
We are sp eaking of t ho general run
of employees at cotton mills. Under
these condit'oas cut off inoro than
' half or three fourths of the income
juiiu impost* upon tneso poor people
tin additional burden of sending to
school whether they are able to do
without their children or not. We
arc ready to admit that the education
of the factory children would
be a good thing for them, and a
good thing for the State by raising
the standard of the citi/.onship of
the rising generation. The question
is, are the mill operatives able to
educate their children? Can the
State do it without feeding and
clothing the children while they are
at school.
Why are the children of mill operatives
entitled to more consideration
than the children of the masses
of the people all over the State?
Let the Legislature pass a law making
education compulsory as to all
classes, and all classes with one
voice would * condemn their action
and at the next session would send
neii pledged to repeal the law.
This labor bill is the same thing except
that it applies to one class only
of our people. If the Legislature
should pass this law, it would become
an easy matter to pass the
osher. We are surs that it is a step
in the wrong direction in many
respects.
