Not w i Til si' \ n DINU the unfavorable
seasons which threatened at one
time during the year, the farmers
over the county have generally rais
cd abundant crops. In addition to
the crops of corn, potatoes and other
food crops, cotton and tobacco ,
have llourished and yielded well, i
Tobacco is bringing better prices '
than it has for years past, and high !
i
prices are predicted for cotton.
Taking it all in all, the country as
a whole, is in the midst of a season <
of prosperity for which the people
should be thankful. The short crops !
of last year, caused our fannies to
live more economically this year :
than they otherwise would. They
have gone in debt as little as possi
ble remembering the lesson of last ]
year. 1 hoy have made good crops
this year and are realizing good pri I
ees for what they have to sell. The
result is that they will be in good
condition to begin another year.

''A recent writer from Horry wri 1
ting for the Mullins Knterpriso says '
the people in the upper townships 1
of Horry are unjustly treated in the f
matter of roads and bridges by the 1
authorities at Conway, and he bold- 1
ly advocates the policy or cutting oil 1
those townships and annexing them 11
to Marion, lie says Mullins treats
the Ilorry people fairly in the way (
of trade, and that point and Marion 1
and Nichols are much more access! '
ble and convenient than Conway, 1
and he wants to be with us. We
think this a splendid idea. A few
years ago the Marion people wanted
io orioc inc linlton s Mock and
Woodberry township people with a
bridge to go olT to Ucrry, but they ,
kicked on that and so did we and the ,
thing fell through and the bridge .
was never built. Let these town'ships
in Horry be annexed. We
will welcome them in the home of s
the Swamp Fox. Mullins will then 1
be the population and territorial 1
center of the county and it would be t
a good idea to move the county seat 1
from Catfish Creek to 1 hat flourish- t
ing and enterprising town. Tnc 1
people of Mullins arc broadntinded t
and liberal, and are not daft on the e
now county question as witness ]
their impartial vote in the recent
primary. Let the mutter bo agita- <
ted; we will help you, brother Piatt, i
in every way we can."?Dillon Her- \
aid. r
The above article appeared in the t
Dillon Herald of last week. Wo c
would pass it unnoticed in our col
umns but for the fact that it up- 1
pears that some misleading statements
have been made aid a false j
impression created.
As the article states, iho source <,
of the ideas therein expressed, is to j
be traced to an article written by an J
Horry man and published in the En
terprisc (Mullins.) The same arti
cle appeared in this paper and our
readers are perhaps familiar with it
Is the statement that the upper
townships of this county are unjust .
ly treated in the matter of roads *
borne out^by the facts? That some
of the roads in the upper townships 1
are in bad condition, we admit. This 1
(
statement may be truthfully made ,
in regard to any section of the coun- '
ty. In Marion county it is the same. <
Wherever we turn in the rural dis
tricts of the lower counties of the
State, we find the roads in bad condition
more or less. Hut we cannot i
understand how anyone can claim j
mat me upper townships of this J
county have been unjustly treated. (
The records in the Supervisor soffice j
will show that many costly bridges i
have been built for these upper town- 1
ships, and piles of money spent in |
this and other road work. The to (
tal spent in the upper part of the j
county will doubtlesss amount to v
much more than the total spent in 1
any Other section of thecor.nty. To i
our rnii d there is no ground for any v
alaim of unjust treatment in the
matter of roads. (
It is no doubt a splendid idea
to themindof the Marion editor to
think of the annexation of several of j
Horry's townships to Marion. But a
more splendid and brilliant ideas
than this have often failed to bo re- (l
all zed. Horryites who would favor
such a scheme uio very few and far (
between. It mitfht do for former
Marionites to support.

Cotton May go High. ^
It is claimed that it is entirely
irobable that cotton may advance r
o ten cents or higher before the

The o\ily reason foi writing a few

My lir.st recollection is of Colonel
unes Beaty who was then Clerk ol
le Court, and the very head of ev
rv enterprise for the upbuilding ol
le town, a man that was beloved
y all, a man lull of all good words,
nd works. I think the man hi* had
j help in the olll *e was 14. A.
hoinpson, a thoroughly educated
nd busiucos man. When Capt II.
luck tirst started the lumber bm>i
ess at the then Upper Mill, Mr.
hoinpson went with nim, and my
.. collection is that he died there.
I must not forget to mention Maj.

1 must mention Jos. Rich wood,
ur genial Host Master, lie seemed
a be the' man in the right place,
'hen, there was Abraham Rriee, our
nilor, where the well to-do had
heir overcoats made.
The bherilf, it seems to me now,
*as always Robert R. Sessions. I
ell remember him. VV e boys al
rays kept an eye on him, knowing
liat lie could put us in jail if he saw
s around unless we were on our
ay to school. (The Sheritl s olllce
as been in the hands of the Sesions's

Comctime in the *tO's the turpen

and invaded our pine forests.
lmono the. first to come were Yates

iany little bad words, but was
