It has been a pros- ( porous year for our farmers com pared to the hard simple ol last year, and as a consequence trade is better. Tn k cooler weather which has pre vailed for the past week is very re freshing after the lor.# hot days of Summer. The past Summer made its reputation for heat and dryness. An article in this issue by James Ira calls up memories of the Ion# u#o when our oldest residents were children. It makes interostin# readin# and we hope to have more along the same line. The political success of Capt. Hey ward is remarkable, lie had never been a candidate for olllee in Ids life, yet he stopped into the , highest ollice in the gift of South i Carolina, the very first time he ask ed for it. Others have had to reach 1 it step by stop. Some reports are going the I rounds about unfairness and questionable methods being used in the ' recent primary. We lend no ear to | such stories until we have proof, It often happens that stories of this kind get afloat without any fouiida tion to them in fact. It is unfair to the parties concerned to believe them without some proof forthcoming. 1 It is stated that the State will have to borrow about 4^00,000.00 this year in order to meet a deficit in her finances. Treasurers in pro vious years have had to borrow in order to tide over the State until taxes came in, but this time it is asserted that the deficit cannot be met by the coming in of taxes. The coming Legislature will be eompell to practice the strictest economy. Cotton Factory Next. I The very next thing that Conway should have in order to hasten her ( growth and strengthen her financial resources, is a cotton factory. In < many sections of our State, we find 1 that cotton factories have been ( built in small towns no larger than ; Conway, and those once small towns < are rapidly growing from villages I in 11j uusy nine elites. The cotton factory is often a starting point in the growth of a town. We have established some new industries and enterprises at Con way within the past few years. Wo have in the Conway Lumber Com pany, a modern plant for the pro duction of lumber. It has added j considerably to our population al j ready and, under favorable oircum- j, stances, will continue to do so. The establishment of the tobacco warehouses has had its part to play in the recent growth and improvement of the town. Unfortunately one of the waretiouses is too far to one side. All the warehouses Conway ever has should be as near together as practicable. Our growth as a town during re- j cent years is directly tracablo to the establishment of new enterprises. < Without them, we would be where we were 10 years ago. But we should not bo satisfied. ! This town is a good place for a cot J ton factory. This assertion has often been made by those who are , competent to judge. This prelimi- < nary question being settled, the next i question is, can a cotton factory be j secured? It ~v.ii uj K'~M,,U l(> WOl'K | in the right way. One plan would ( be to advertise the advantages of ; our town and county in order to get ' outside capital interested. This once accomplished, we can go ahead ] and help from outside will not be , hard to get. Besides this, there is plenty of capital in our midst to build a cotton factory. All that is needed here is a determination to have it. After this the rest would 1 be easy sailing. If Conway is ever to amount to \ much, us a town, in size and wealth, 1 something along this and other lines * must be done. ^ a <? J This Ifrnaturo is on evory lx>x of the genuine Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablet* tb* remedy that mre* a cold In ono day \ LorsVobucco Warehouse. The exciting question in the 1 uoris >mmuniiy now is, that of the sue- q >ss of the tobacco warehouse enterrise. That horis is a proper place >r the location of a warehouse there no doubt. It is the center of a irgo area of territory in which toaceo growing is greatly increasing. he soil is well adapted to its growth j ml quality and those who have givn it special attention have found it ., o be profitable. See those factsiin . oiinection with the enterprising p pirit of the farmers and their con- t inuous need of more money, has ^ ed to tin? general eonelusion that a | varehouse here is a necessity. Now if they so move as to secure ( inity of action as well as that of sen- n iiiKMit their desire will materialize | ind success will be achieved. Cards , iavo already been distributed giving Hit general notice that on next. Saturday, the 20th of Sopturnber, there j will be a basket, picnic horo to bring , together all who are interested in ' the niovemcnt, that such organiza ' lion as may seem necessary may bo e (Tee ted. * f It seems that every one is ex pec ( ted to constitute himsolf a commit- ( toe of one to bring refreshments so | that the aggregated interest and efforts of all may meet the demand, j No one is under greater obligation than another in this particular, but the weight of responsibility is to be ' generally distribu'ed among all who attend. It is also expected that there will bo one or more addresses delivered on the occasion. , puouress. I rom Murrells Inlet. Ileavv rains the first of the week, j J. S.

Henderson of the Imperial Tobacco Co., was on the Conway market Saturday. L. J. Williams of Danville, Va , 1 and T. R. Skipper of the American v Tobacco Co., were visitors here the .v past week and attended the tobacco sales. J. ri. Evans, Albert. McDowell, W. !, D. Woodward and R. Cannon were g some of the Horry planters who j made line sales at the Horry Ware j house last week. ^ We note with a great deal of pride t the rapid and substantial growth < >f t he Con way Tobacco Market. It v is conceded to be bv both sellers and c buyers, one of the best tobacco mar- o <ets in this State. The sellers are c lighly pleased at the good prices o paid for the weed, and the buyers o ire well pleased with the quality of 'J Horry grown tobacco. t The Warehouse men tell us that v hey look for sales to be just as large s ind satisfactory this week as they -verc last. Almost tor Nothing. We desire to say to our merchants J ind business men all over the conn- i y, that we have all qualities of J |>u[>ur which we print in ' tie latest style at low down prices. Wvery merchant needs to have his insiness card on his paper and en mlopes. We have the finest, and dso some, which though not the >cst paper, is yet very good, and ho prices will surprise von.

C, j - - - - - - " ' SOMH RECOLLECTIONS if the Ministers of Conway Cir cuit In \3(? and up to the 40's and 50's. Some of tin' ministers in the 30's ore Lovot Pearco, Archibald Puifoy, John Pickett and others whom cannot remember now. The Cirnit then extended from the Cape ear Uivor in North Carolina around y Galivants Perry down to Port lurrelson,then called 1 lull Creek, nd included all that country across i the Atlantic. The churches that remember are the Conwayboro hurch which was built out on the ho old road leading to Hull Creek, ear where Joe Saunders lived, 'oplur Swamp church, Hebron near tueksviMo, and Soeastee church. Most of the churches were built if poles or logs. . The benches were tigs which had been split open and icwn on one side, with no backs, o you see that those who served vero willing to sutTer. 1 have many food reasons to remember thoso lays when my mother would load no into the church and stooping iver would whisper and say: "Now fim, Uncle Purifoy is going to ireacli and I want you to be a good my. If you go out today 1 will whip 'ou when we get homo"' 1 would iromisc. but yet I would go out and got the whipping. How often I utvo wondered why it was that I did lot stay in just once to see which vas the greater pdnishment?thoso iar.1 seats or whip -but 1 guess I nadc no mistake. Afterwards, when was quite a boy, and wont to hurch to try to learn to tie better uul to hear what the ministers said, iow I would watch the minister as io walked in at the door looking ail ired out with his snd?ll? nn I - ~ ?T - ? v, , . - ? \'l? lis arm! llo had probably rode 20 nil'es thai morning. lie would put lis saddle bags under the little ta )le, go up in the pulpit, and, after meolinga few minutes in prayer, le would sit up and coinmenee sine ng: "Musi I lie carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, Vhile others fought to win the prize And sailed through bloody seas. O'e there no foes for me to face, Must I not stein the flood? .s this vile world a friend to grace To help me on to God?" And after reading the lesson lie irould announeo his text: ''And if 0 will not yet for all this, hearken into me, 'hen I will punish you sevn times more for your sins." Then in would tell us how the old adverary, the devil, stood ready to asail us on every side. After admoushing us ever to be on the lookout io would ask Brother to iray. Then we would sin# the old 1 y inn: 'How careful then ought we to live, With what religious fear, iVho such a strict account must give For our behaviour here." How zealous were our ministers in hose days, but how many seed fell >y the wayside! Could our people see how our old inio ministers dressed, would they lot hold up their hands in horror? 'o see one of their coats, not cut at II like the clerical coats of today nd must I say what they worocalld? They were v6ry particular how hey dressed. They wore, I think, he commonest quality of Jeans. Micy were never seen wearing gold r costly apparel and were down on vcrything of this kind. If one of he members wore these things, he yould be "churched" about it. How lifTcrcnt it is now! everyone wears vhat ho. likes. I sec now, minis crs tlml wait until the congregation ire seated when they walk up the lisle with their long clerical coats nadc of broad cloth. Some will ?avc gold-headed mines under their inns, sticking out so that all may ico them. They will preach you a icrmon that seems to offer some hauce oi salvation. Now wo have many different do lomi nations and each one thinks his ,vay is the only right way and that dl others arc wrong. It seems that here is too much strife and contention. Would that we had more of Jie Spirit of Abrain among us. 'And Abrain said unto Lot let there >e no strife, 1 pray thee between no and thee, and between my lierdnen and thy herdincn, for we be jrethren." 1 suppose that the reason, our old ninisters had so little trouble and lontention is, that they were kept >usy. I think they must have been vorricd some over worldly affairs, fhoy were riding and preaching luring the whole year and 1 think f he had a large family, his salary vas $125.00, if single $75.00. This vas their salary if they could col eel it. Contrast this with what >ur ministers get now and seethe lifTerencc Some of them get a sal iry of $700, or $800 for one, and loraetimcs two churches, and they lave parsonages and often a poundng thrown in. it is not that f hink our ministers of today get oo much, but that our old pioneers jot so little. I think our people vould like to read the history of bur >kl ministers if we could get some >ne to write. We would like to read >f John A. Mi nick, II. A. O.
