THURSDAY July 17th 1002 Thk rains of last Suiulay worn a great blessing to many of the farm ors of the county. Wo hope the showers will continue. Evkrytiiino looks like I ley ward for Governor now, but you know you can never tell until after the election, A leading tobacco man said not lang ago that Conway had the pro inise of becoming the leading tobae co market in the Eastern part of the State. The assertion carries weight because it comes from one who ought to know. One thing is certain and that is that the farmers of Horry county can make Conway One of the leading markets of the country if they try. The county raises more and more tobacco every year. The proper thing to do is to see tha? all of this tobacco comes to the 1 lorry market. Oca two tobacco warehouses will soon be open and running in full blast with Sales every day. J. E. Coles of the Horry Warehouse, and O. P. Thornton who has leased the Farmers Warehouse for this year are busy preparing for the opening sales which will take place 011 .luly -JJrd. Let all the farmers bring in some tobacco for these opening sales. Buyers from the different markets will be here on that day to inspect the different grades of tobacco raised in the county, and to determine whether it will pay to locate here for the season or not. Our farmers' will see that it is to their interest! to bring all the tobacco they can on that day, and bring as many different grades as they possibly can. Horry's Progress is Noticed Out side. Editor II ehai.d: ?Many native sons of the "Independent Republic," whose work lias called them to oth-1 or places, note with grea* pleasure the development of her resources, the improvement of her schools and the growth of her churches, which means the betterment of her-citizen ship. Wo ardently love Horry county?her soil and her people. The 4 I - vuvi-fzy, inri11, magnanimity. anil public spirit of many of her sons are making nor groat. These arc our patriots and heroes. We honor them. We are glad Con way <>n the King ston is in a hcalMiy and vigorous j state. Its steady and rapid growth indicates abundance of life. It is fast becoming one of the most prosperous and desirable towns in our great Commonwealth (Jood roadand plenty of safe bridges acrosour water streams will not onl\ greatly help Conway, but even section of our county. Let then, come speed'ly. While our rural mail delivery is being established and perfected. 1 may oe pardoned for giving the address of a man who, during the an te-bellum days, went from the upcountry to the sea to make salt. While in Lancaster countv fnnv years ago the address was given me and vouched for by a brother of the. man addressed. Here it. is: "II. M. McKibben, Dogwood Neck, Horry District, All Saints Parish, Singleton's Swash, Waecainaw River, Cain Patch Creek, South Carolina." Wonder if this place still exists? S. II- Uootii, Port Royal, S. C. Against the Court House. Editor Herald:?I notice in last issue a gentleman writing about the "court house.". I would like to meet him and shake his hand, for I think he is amhonest man. We had better pay as we go. If we can't pay, then don't go. for our county is in flnVO * 1 1 uww iiiiiuii turuuciy. I believe in enterprise &e, but it is more enjoyable to pafy for sueli before hand or when completed, and I think it best for us to wait till we get the money, then I'll bo with you. We people up here do work hard and arc already in debt enough for home consumption without borrowing money and paying illegal interest, for building a court house for the accommodation of the generality of people who have no I usiness during court. Sorry to say. a great many go to court simply t:> lind out some near cut or to tase some advantage of their fellow men. 1 think that we had better make it small and keep out of debt. It is already large enough for all who have business. Honkht John. Persons who receive bills for sub scription due to this paper are expected to coinc in and settle, as the money is due and must be paid. ^ \ / * _ V Adrian Items.
