THURSDAY APRIL 23rd 1Q03
Thk sidewalk along 3rd Avenue is
in need of something better than the
i light yellow sand that has been
placed there. The sinks in it were
filled up with this sand not longago,
but the frequent rains and March
winds have caused the sand to disappear,
and the side walk is in as
bad a condition as over. Clay and
sand mixed is the best remedy uness
the town can afford something
more costly.
It is an injury to any community
for the representative men of the
place to become involved in quarrels
and disputes too often ft is
unfortunate when men let their
prejudices and ill feelings get the
x ascendency of their better judgment.
J One who has the good of his community
at heart should be willing
to takea good deal before taking action
that may injure the reputation
of his eommunitv.
In the city of Florence they have
determined to enforce the vagrant
law, and we think the same step
should be taken in every town or
city where persons are found who
neither have nor want any occupation.
There is always plenty to do.
A person who has no occupation
whatever, and no visible means of
making a living, is a dangerous
character to have in a community.
There is a Jaw that covers such cases
but it is not often enforced. It
should be.
In the course of twenty or thirty
years, the timber of our county, or
at least all that is acjcssablc to
large saw mills, will be cut up into
lumber, and the lumber industry as
it exists now will be no longer. In
days to come lumber will be higher
because it will have to be brought
from distant lands, nr.d brick houses
will be cheaper here than those
built of wood. Those who have
timber timber lands can safely hold
?--- them and be perfectly sure of getting
good interest on their money
some day.
This is the most trying time of
the year for the small farmers of our
county, because this is the time of
the year when they have the least
income from their occupation, And
the way in which t hey manage their
business at this time of the year
has a good deal to do with their il1
or good fortune later on. If tin
have to have advances to make tin i
vv crops, they should get along .vit
as little as possible, for the greatest
' ^ drawback to many of our farmers
is their having to spend the income
from their money crops long before
that income is realized, paying fifty
per cent more for their supplies
than they would have to do, were
the.y to pay cash for all they get.
We want to see the farmers do well,
and xvc know no better advice to
tfive them than to tell them that it
will be better for them to ?et their
business on a cash basis as soon as
possible, and then never tamper with
the credit business on the busis of a
crop lien.
This one Fnvors It.
Ei.itor IIkuai.d: Will you please
allow space, for a few words in favor
of the "no fence" law. It is j jst
what the county wants, and what I
believe it is tfoino to have when it
is nut to a vote.
There arc farmers in this section
who have not enough timber on their
lands to fence their farms, if the fences
were destroyed by lire. I know
of one man who hauled timber ei^ht
miles to keep up his fence.
Give us the law and we will
clear our fence rows, sell the hay
racks, and buy mowers and rakes
instead, kill our pine rooters and
buy better slock. 1 am sure we will
have finer stool: and better times in
Horry. Those that are in the city
of rcfuj/e walled with old fence rails,
briars and bi ush heaps, to keep old
cows from eating the crops thev
try to make, will flee to the city of
Justice whyre they can live with
ease. They will then have fine blooded
ho#s and cattle, and if they happen
to be skeletons they cannot
Irother any one except the owner.
There may not be but two in favor
of it now but there will be more
on the day of the election. Or. that
day we expect to see Justice crowded
and fences left lonely.

Would say to "Kittv Clover ' at
Uisco, that the "stock law" would
probably be a benefit to the well-todo
farmer while it would be a detriment
to a great many small farmers
who will no doubt roll a good
majority against the "no fence"
next August. It is only a question
of time when Horry will need the
stock law, but a majority of the
people think that they are.not ready
for it now.

A Word From Justice.
Allow us space to correct a false
impression made upon tho minds of
many people by an article from Juslice.
published March 2<>th, and
signed ' Horry Friend." We learn
that we are credited by some as be
ing the author of it. Being thus
misjudged, wo have been severely
ami unsparingly censured and crit
icised.
As yet. we are entirely ignorant
as to to the uutnor of thiseomniuni
cation, and it was not until it up |
poured in print that we suspected
any audi article from our peaceful
jity.
We know not the writer's object
or intention, but surely no must
have known that such an article
would bring about unpleasant con
troversies, that would, in all p'*oba
i blity, terminate in hard feelings on
both sides, and make for himself a
I iost of enemies.
We*havo ever been more conscr
vativc in our views, advocating only
such measures as, iu our judg
ment, woulci best Subserve and promote
the interest of our people.us a
whole.
As we see it. the time is not ripe
for the "no fence" law until it will
prove beneficial to the majority of
the people in Horry county. f.
When, from honest convictions,
we arc persuaded that that time has
come, and that it will not intlict any
hardship upon our community, then
we are ready to cast our ballot for,
and not against the "no fence" law.
W. lloyd Jones.
A Statement Demanded.
We have a prosperous and growing
litttle town. Our town taxes
are becoming quite a little item and
should he more judiciously spent. I
have a few suggestions to make,
that I think will he satisfactory to
the tax payers if carried out. I
think we should get a Surveyor and 1
have the Town properly laid out, so
that wc can have the town properly
drained, and .stop throwing aw.iy
money doing the same work over
every time wc have a big rain. 1
think it would be decidedly better T
to spend our tax money more systematically,
by improving the Main (
Streets and sidewalks, that are used
everyday, and stop putting in short
leaf sap pine gutters and covering
with saw dust in the alleys that '
have not been used in so long that '
most of us thought it private prop- .
crly. Also (ill up the ditches on \
nubile streets, and liirhl llw? lunnw
on t 1m* streets where the ditches |
have been left open for six months i
or more and no lamps burning to
keep the people from fulling in said .
ditches, although there is a lamp
post right at the head of one of the
ditches on one of the most public 1
streets in the town.
Our present board of health seem
rather careless. They have an eye
to business, and the more sickness
we have the better business will be.
Give us Mr. Editor an itemized
statement of all money received
and expended at least once every I
three months. We could offer
more suggestions along these lines
but there are older, wiser heads
and larger tax payers here than the
writer, and he would like to heat
from them.

[We arc in no way connected with
the administration of the town government
and cannot therefore give
the statement demanded. We refer
the matter to the town clerk and
other town ollicers. ? En.]

less. 1 sold ?.*>0, worth of stock to

We know as a rule the merchants '

meat almost .it his own price. The ;
