SUBSCRIPTION : One Year, - - - #1.00. always in aovanot. ^nt?r?it at the Tott Office at Conway, S. C , u* Sacoad-elaap Matt?r. THURSDAY APRIL* Oth 1Q03 Evert man who tries to succeed in life and accomplishes any thidg is sure to have enemies, while he who lacks the energy or the ability to make himself felt, and never puts himself in anyone's way, is never likely to know what an enemy is. Some men will refrain from the known path oT duty and often compromise conscience, for fear of making enemies. This is the wrong way to do, for any person of note is bound to have enemies and it is worse than useless to try to avoid them. iTcatinotbe disputed that Conway is in the midst of a great era of 1'rnwt.li lint iinlnct vumnn wiia. coed in getting factories of some kind established here, within the next few years, the town will soon find a very material check to its progress. Industry after industry has been established and made its mark, the movement must be kept on foot and still others brought or the tide may turn. Cotton factories, oil mills, hardwood factories, and other enterprises of this kind should be started now. * Tiikkk ar(J ,liany \vho seem anx* *"' ious to express themselves on the subject of the general stock law in the columns of the paper. We will be glad if those who write on this subject will condense their opinions and make their articles as short as possible, so we will have the space to publish them. We have had to shorten some already. We do not desire any long controversies on the question either, as they are likely to cause hard feelings and to wind up by making enemies both for the paper and for the parties engaged. It is rather early to begin the dis cussion anyway.as the election docs not come off until next August. In another column a writer ex presses himself as sorry that the editor of this paper favored tl.o establishment of a dispensary here. We do not wish it understood by anyone that we would favor a dispensary in the town under ni v circumstances, but as westatru.. the editorial referred to in view ol the fact, that the Toddvillc dispensary is so near us, and having observed the great quantity of liquor that comes from there to the town and pass through the town we fail to see how matters would b"?. made worse with a dispensary located here. And if the town has the an. noyance of liquor drinking to stand, it had as well have the pleasure of expending some of the profits, as it certainly cannot do with the dispensary butside of the corporate limits. The town treasury is in need now of money to build the side walks and streets, to establish electric lights, water works and a fire department. Where is the needed cash to come from? The State is under the dispensary law. We can not get rid of the establishment near Toddville and there i s no war to keep our people from patronizing it. Then why should a little prejudice prevent the town from having and expending toward good ends the profits of the institution which said profits must necessarily go and be expended somewhere? This is our position and we mean to stand by it. If we could vote it out of the reach of our people, why of course we would. To Cure a Cold in One Day. Take Laxative Hromo Quinine TnblotH.

Editor 1Ikhai.i>. ?In a recent issue. 1 saw an article advocating the 1 stock law by one sliming his name "Horry Friend." lie knows noth- I ing of what he is talking, unless he | had tried it. He speaks of hay racks and pine rooters- We have ' hogs here weighing 100 pounds that I never had a quart of corn, bnt got all they had from the woods. We ' have fine cows and butter all the i time. 1 am no stock law man and | don't think it best for ourcounty. 1 as we have about forty times as ] much wood land at cleared. The < auditor's books will show. I We want no such thing as a line I fence from Lumber River to Little i River inlet. If we are to be taxed, I let it be for something of more value i such as railroads and public build- t ings. \ Many people who do not raise c enough on their farm to feed one ( cow, have ten or twelve head. Where t would Marion get her beef if we had t the stock law Win. Edwards. t From BIsco. Editor Ekrai.d.?Please allow me space for a few words on the stock law. 1 know men who have, hogs in the i woods that are thrifty looking. ( What will become of smli men who ( have allj the cleared land they can i work and only raise enough to eat i and fatten their hogs? Clod created the beast, and the grass for it to \ eat. Are we to have a law against i ijiiiuiv. auiim nuv wu CUIl I'illSC ?. enough to feed our stock, is there 1 not some men toil hard day by day [ trying to yet food for the. support \ of the family.. How can a man t tend any more land without a fence \ than he could with it? I I believe in raising hog ans hoini- i ny at homo, and not paying big a prices for bacon. What will become t of men who plough the ox? not all men can buy a horse or mule The f stock law is against the farmers, a We must have the fence if we have f stock. The wire pullers will likely control some voters, hut I believe <] our people have inteligcnee enough 1 to vote against the stock law. t Voter. t A Good Meeting. a Editor Hf.rai.i>:--I would like to announce through your paper a meeting which I have just closed at Little Hiver. We commenced there on March 21st and were forced to I close or the 2Sth on account of our approaching quarterly conference, t Our meeting was not in vain because it resulted in the conversion 1 of live penitents and two applicants 1 for membership. We not only en- t joyed a good meeting, hut the pres- 1 ence of many friends who expressed i their good wishes for the pastor by their regular attendance, and show 1 ed their appreciation at tlu? by an old fashioned pouiyi*^, and i forced us to take hp^/Vdh "us an < expression of ir 1()V0 \Vc feci tnaj-.k//,;' | ,ord is with us in the work i and this is the best of all. I S, J. McConncll, Pastor. < Dispensary Scored. Editor Herald:- I have been gricv- I ed ever since I read your columns of a week or two ago?grieved for ! Conway. A flourishing little town noted for its morality, and where is '< its equal with the same number of inhabitants in intelligence, moral! 1 ty and quiet? Hut 1 see you want 1 a dispensary there, 1 Now Conway does not want a dispensary for the whiskey that is in it but just for filthy lucre?just the 1 money in it,' and the money they can KCtout of tin* poor drunken men for disorderly conduct on the streets. Maybe he can't pay his debts or ^ct food for his wife and children, but you put the temptation before him, lay a trap for him and take him in. 1 1 It is wrono. 1 have lived in Conway and I love her people. Move the Devil's tent there and in twelve months every tnan would vote against it. 1 1 was sui prised to liiul the editor in favor of it, and 1 heard that a minister of the gospel signed the petition. My Lord have inercy on such a minister! lie must be trying to beoin a new reform party. Your wives, daughters and sweethearts ere safe and unmolested now as they walk the streets but how would it be then? Will it be free from mobs and riots? There are manv rlsimrnvs tfmnv i Vetkuan. 1 He Opposes it. Ei> i to it 11 eh add.?The stock law is before the people of the county to bo settled at the ballot box. Twentydjve years ago, this writer 1 was a strongvad vocato of this law. 1 Experience and observation has convinced me that the stock law is < not for the besrt interest of the peo- ' pie of this county. If a man expect ] to keep stock, it will take more ' fencing fonr pasturage than for his ' farm, and if the stock is kept up and fed, has the cost of feeding been 1 estimated? We have no meadow 1 lands, such as we see up north with ' the blue j'i'liss white mul red ol.itm* ( and timothy. Furthermore, this ' climate will not allow confinement ; of stock, They become sickly and die. This question should be well considered Some seem to think that their fortune would be complete i with the stock law in force, thou- j sands have thought so, but found that they were ruined. The day that we go under thestock law will ^ be the worst step that the county overtook. The county is on the up grade at this time, why lock the v wheels of progress with the stock t law? My object is to give some plain facts, You may trvel over state i after state, in the southern belt, and where you find the stock law, you find but little stock. You may . see a cow tied by the head in the hot sun, and her appearance that of a skeleton. Selfishness has much to do in the make up of many people ' and charity for the neighbor is over r looked. Any person of sufficient r moans, and suitable location, can establish a stock farm without hav ing the stock law. J. D N. M .... -- MM. ?? Cool Spring Items.

They >roke open the door but were presented from entering by the man of he house. They then broke the vindow and swore they would kill lim but they were again met by the nan and prevented. The screams md cries of three women and two . hildrcn did not check them at all. This nuisance has been running or fourteen or fifteen years, and is > known thing yet the grand jury inds no bill. If the Justice, correspondent will levotc one half the time to splitting '1 ails that he does to digging fish >ait, he will have a better fence i ban any of his neighbors, and will ^ jo to the polls and vote against the ^ dock law. .

Hut it is no use to try one side of the thing at a time. 1 cannot keep up a fence around my farm and a pasture too. He does not want to pay lf> cents ] a pound for beef and 25 cents for baron.
