Tiiosk who lire in need of farming
lands in this county will never buy '
tin 111 cheaper than now. Prices arc v
higher than they used to be and they ?
will continue to go higher. If you
want land you will save money by 1
purchasing now.
Tin: county Auditor has just sent
out move than live hundred notices, c
he states, to persons who have not
paid their taxes. Every one who f
can, should pay up promptly and 1
thus save trouble to the public off!- 0
eers.
(i
lr the town cannot afford the c
means f r properly grading all the
sidewalks in the town, why not pass
an ordinance requiring each lot
owner to grade the side walk in
front of his property and keep it in
proper repair? There are not many ,
who would oppose such a measure.
It is a work that needs doing, and if a
it cannot lie accomplished in one 11
way, it should lie in another.

Horr.s county will stick to the home s
tobacco nit rkct more this year than
they have ever done before. They c
arc goinj* to do this because it will j
pay them to do it. We will hn-v# '
two warehouses rnnni^K 1,1 'hll blast
in o[M,onltioo to each other and en \
tircly unconnected in any bosincsss
way. The farmers should want a ^
trood home market and should be ?
willing to help all in their power t
towards building it. *
This town bus attained its pros \
ent rate of progress through tlie i
esta1 lishm nt of new enterprises and
industries. Its trade has increased,
real estate has nearly doubled in
valia I3ut what would be the result
were s me of our present enter- j
prises to fail? Things would fall <
flat, if you will permit the expression.
If we want a safe-guard to our I
town, we must keep on bringing .
capital here, establish factories and t
mills. In this way only, can we in f
sure the fn'.ure of Conway. 1
W f. have been asked several tii:v< *
as to our opinion of what is ealii 1
the "no fence law," but for sever. ?
reasons we prefer to let the papc !
remain neutral in the matter. We
are no farmer, we own no farm and i -
V
therefore, wo are not interested from i
any purely personal standpoint
It is a tpi stion that vitally con- <
cerns the farming people of the conn \
ty, and we prefer to let the farmers ^
alone in their opinions for or against ^
it. The el uigc would injure some }
of our farmers, while some others 1
might be benefitted by it. The peo* }
are d vi . but on which side the i
majority i remains to be seen. s

Unconstitutional Exemption. <
The i 'Oj ioof Horry are stirred '
l.tw.l < - 1
tilmw. i wuiie neai over tlio
propo^it-on to fence the stock of the
county instead of the crops, if wo
are not mistaken Horry is the only
county in the State where what is
commonly -known as tlie "no fence
law ' is not operative. The "Independent
Iiopubiic" bears this (lis- :
linclion at least. We are not in the
least inter*st one way or the other
in tin; agitation which is now going
on in our sister county, yet we are
unwilling to let the opportunity go
by without expressing the firm conviction
tbut under the interpretation
of the (Constitution of 1895, deliver
cd by ti e Supreme Court in every
cause will) which it has had to pass
upon, either the stock law is unconstitutional
in that it does not apply
witli the same elYect to every county
of the St: 'o, or that portion of the
law which exempts Horry from the
provi dons of the law is so because
the exemption is in direct conflict
with subdivision xi of section 84, |
artie'e iii of the Constitution, which ,
prohibi s special legislation.?Lexington

The above taken from the Lexington
Dispatch states the true status
of the matter and we have so given

ind 1 hope our people will vote
igainst it.
1 do not think that more than 120
)cr cent of our land is cultivated
)ur stock has the priviligo of the
est. If we luve too much slock
ind want none, then we should vote
or it, for if the stock is to be coninod
to the 120 per cent of cleared
. ul for feed, some of the stock will
p> by starvation. It is not good
lense to give up SO per cent to keep
rom fencing 20 per cent.
I could have sold one thousand
lobars worth of hogs last Fall, and
ill the buyers came from Marion.
They did not stand on prices. Think
)f the quantities of hogs and cattle
joing from llorrv to Marion every
,'ear. We have so much land that
s fit for nothing but raising cattle.
Borne one spoke of blue milk from
/rass. I f the cow is to be confined
10 a small pasture, th~? milk will be
>till bluer and less of it. I have
seen pastures in Marion, with some
attie in them, and noticed that the
Dak leaves were all eaten up, and the
/round as clean as a yard. Would
the cows give good milk?
W. If. Small. %
Against the "No Fence."
.
As the time for voting on the
stock law, either fence or no fence,
is drawing nearer every day. and as
i think from experience, it is a subject,
that should be thoioughly von
lilatcd so that the people can vote
intelligently, I ask you space in
your valuable paper to give to the,
readers of tho IIf.rai.d mv views
and experience. I lived in Marion
county under the no fence law since
it was in force in that county, and !
mv experience is that it will ruin
any poor man or even a well to-do
farmer. While it may benefit a few
of the rich men, it will ruin the i
masses A poor mar. with a few
head of cattle and hogs can tnako
manure enough to make his crop,
but under the no fence law you cannot
have this manure and will ho
forced to use commercial fertilizers
altogether. I a*k you to consider
the matter well before you vote to
throw down the fence, for I have :
tried it and 1 know what I am talk
ing about, therefore 1 hope you will
roll up such a majority against it in <
August that we will never be bothered
with it again. N. S.

J. W. Edwards and family are visiting
in Salivunts Kerry.
We have a nourishing, ever-green
Sunday School urder the supervision
of J. l\ Johnson and J. \V. Edwards,

Jake William's saw mill has added
much to this place and you can hear
the sound of hammer and saw al
most every day.
Mr. Harmon and family and Mr.
1 tiehardson are occupying the farm
and residence of S. T. Sessions. We
welcome them to our midst.
Now, for the Stock law. I used
to live near the Marion line and 1
know t. l?;it J am talking about. We
have no use for it in this county and
wo arc not going to have it. 1 am
ready to canvass the county against
it, but I don't think it is necessary,
for the most of us arc poor men and
have more or less stock in the woods.
A peddler stopped at nty house once
for dinner and he said that lie saw
more meat on my table at one time
than he saw in Marion county in a
week. Of course it was hog killing
time and ho struck it rich, as the
editor did when he canvassed the
county in green pea time. The writer
at J notice don't know what he is
talking about, and I hope the people
will not i>e fooled l>v his ignorance.
There was a slock buyer through
here last Kail who said lie had left
aver $-1000 in cash in this County for
attic. Had we had the "no fence"
law this could not have been so.
Voter.
Gnlivnnts Perry News.
The "no fence" law and what is
to be done about it? Some say let
it come, but 1 am afraid they have >
not weighed the matter as they
should. Just go over into Marion,
you who want the stock law, and see '
how the poor old cows have to stand
tied out in the hot sun day after day
not getting half enough to cat, :
win to our rows are least ing on the
green grass, as God intended they
should do. It seems like a sin for
us to shut up our stoek and half
perish them to death, while there is
so much woods land.
"Ilorry friend" will gladly pasture
his stock if scmo one will fix a
plan to keep other stoek out of his
iield. He can wait patiently until
the farmers at Daisy get through
planting and perhaps he can get his '
fence made high enough to keep out
his neighbor's stock. Why ar? so
many of the people coming from
Marion county to Horry? Simply
to get away from this law
There has been right much sickness
in this section recently
Row I. N. Stone preached a very i
impressive sermon at/don on Easter
Sunday. Hot us hear from all parts J
of the county concerning the stock I
law. Now is the time to speak or 1
