THURSDAY.; Sept. 181h 1002 1
This is tlie best season of the
joar for trade. 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. ^

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. ,

Tobacco Notes.
The sales at the 1 lorry Ware- 1
house the past week were the larg 1
est of any thus far this season. I
Mr. Geo. 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. Call
it the Horry Hkrald Huilding and \
et us show it to vou.

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. Walk
r, James Augburn, Lewis Senrbormgh
and many others. Why don't
?om write? All those old soldiers of
ho Cross have been called by a
