THURSDAY MAY 2 1 IQ03
The Columbus News of last week
said that if crime was an outcome ol
prosperity, Columbus bade fair U
be the most prosperous county in
the State. Judging from the reports
in the newspapers, the News
is about right.
?>.
With gcod seasons this year, the
tobacco crop raised in Horry county
will be immense and much larger
thau the crop of any previous year.
In passing through tlie county one
sees new tobacco fields on every
band.
The election which is to be held
to decide the question of what is
called the "no fence" law for the
county is just no.w agitating the
minds of our farmers, and the interest
in the matter will likely grow
as the time for the election approaches
and the lines are closer
o raw u.
We arc glad that the farmers ol
Horry count\ are doing better and
saving more money than -they have
in the whole history of the county.
The fact that they are going ahead
improving and enlarging theii
farms, diversifying their crops, and
making progress in a hundred different
ways is a sure sign thai, with
the blessings of providence, the
\ present state of things will contin[

- \ It is a part of human nature, wc
\ suppose, for people to give license to
\ their tongues and lot them run tc
\ the injury of others upon subjects,
with which they arc but little concerned,
to come down to the actual
facts. There are few men who can
3BBV'
abstain from intermeddling in the
Itncinncc rif nr? nvithu- luun
much business of their own they
may have to attend to.

\ another column, the farmers will
I see that if they desire an Institute
J . this year, they must got up a petiItion
and get 15 farmers to sign it.
We hope that they will decide tc
have it, get up the petition and
send it in at once. The farmer
needs information and training in
his avocation just as much as anybody,
perhaps more.
Whenever the trusts want any
thing they begin working in the
other direction. They wanted the
Elkins bill passed at the last session
I of Congress, and that is why 'the*
seut those telegrams to the Sena'
asking that it be killed. Thcv knew
that would do the trick. That i;
why, at this time, they are givinj
, out the impression that they do no
want Roosevelt nominated or elcc
ted. They know the people wil
give them what they do not want
Watch the game
The sad occurrence on our street
last week which ushered a man int<
eternity, perhaps unprepared to go
and left a widow and fatherless in
fant, is deplored by everybody
Our little town has the rcputatio
of being quiet anil not often th
scene of any violence. It has bee
many years since any occurrence (
the kind happened. It was then
fore like a clap of thunder from
clear sky. li is arid by many the
whiskey is responsible for the who]
affair. Hut wo prefer to leave tli
blame in the matter to be settle
, by a higher power than us.
Wh at Conway needs just no
more than anything else is the et
tublishment of many new enlerprii
es of the kind that will give en
\ ploy men t to labor. We need
laundry plant, ice plant, baken
oil mill, cotton factory, furnitur
factory. Any of these and man
others we might mention would d
? well here. No better place could 1.

Then why is it that our cnterprisin
citizens, so interested and publl
fat spirited, do not be up and doing i
lib the matter? Some perseverance ht
been shown in the establishment <
a tobacco market, but .this is ik
enough, for the town must buil
along other lines as well. It cannc

wc have noticed that whenever the
business men of the town become interested
in anything and begin to
tain it. plenty of means are soon
forthcoming. We have not yet de
elded that we will have these new
enterprises, but-whenever we do so
decide and back it (up by determination,
those enterprises will come
just as others have done.

In the last two issues of the Her
\r.n some writers from different seeion
of the county favor the "no
' -n.-,'" law. I beliovo it would be
' . .. t)'.?st thing we could have. In
some sections rail timber is very
I scarce. It is so here. 1 belcivo the
cost of fencing is more than the
cost of pasturing the stock. Some
of my neighbors have been pasturing
for the last three years, and they
s say they like n much better than
the woods. They find that cows
give more and better milk, and be*
' lievc that hogs are easier raised and
kept in pastures.
wo imvn some tarmers in our secn
tiou from Marion county who have
been here from one to nine years.
e They say the "no fence" law is a
11 good one and they like it better
>f than they do the law we are now
j. under. They did not come to this
county to get away from the law
,l but came because they could buy
L* three acres of land in Horry for
le what they got for one in Marion.
iC Why should we not have the law
and increase the value of our lands?
We have been or. the stool of do
nothing long enough. Lets get to
work, and not only get our county
w up, but run it ahead before we stop
If 'H. O.' of Eldorado will first
help us in getting the stock law, we
will help him with his railroad, He
v must first tear down the fences so
a he can build his road.
. Mr Smith of Gideon seems to
,e think we have some had people up
here, but he is mistaken Our peoy
pie are as good as there is in the
lo county. We will di\ideas long as
>e we can, but the time of helping each
. other with rail timber has run out.
We are now going to help each other

The services were opened on Monday
May lit I), by song and prayer
service.
After an interesting and instructive
address, ' The Sunday School
and the rhureh", by l'rof. H. M.
II ami I, we adjourned and went to
our pleasant homes which had already
been assigned each delegate.
We reassembled the next morning
and. after the quiet half hour of devotion,
"The Book of Acts and a
method of Bible Study" was very
ably handled by Prof. II. M. llauiifCapt.
B. L. Beaty read a good
paptron "Ho.w the School can help
liim. "
Prof. 11 ami * uddressed us again on
Tuesday on the subject "Our Study
Circle," its helps and i.mdrunees.
Then Mrs. llatml talked on primary
work, "Organization and Management."
The addresses by Mr. and Mrs.
llatnil were very goou and arc supposed
to leave a lasting elTect for
good on those who heard them.
On Wednesday the exercises were
simply grand.
A majority of the delegates were
there and received certificates of
honor.
At about o'clock p. in., on Wednesday
the parting words by volunteers
were given. Many expressed
their hearty appreciation of the Institute.
Ml felt that it was good
to be there, and a blessing to each
to see and hear and shake the hand
of Dr. and . rs. Ilainil.
We think each delegate will long
remember 'now the Florence people
opened wide their doors and took
us into their hospitable homes,
made each moment of our stay with
them very pleasant.

Editor, Hkuat.p:?The people of
this section are solid wo think for
the fence, but I wish to tell your
readers what a Marion man says in
regard to the stock law.
Ho was present at the Anniversary
recently held at Mt. Elvoy, and
told me that some men would open
past me gates and let stock into
their crops, simply to cause a man
to pay out a little money. He said
he ate some meat for dinner which
ii'iis vorv iFooel lint hn'mtr ncod tn
much of it, that he would trade a
good farm in Marion county for a
poor farm in Horry, just to get
away from tho stock law.
If the stock law is a good thing,
why do m> many run from Marion
to I lorry?
If we have the stock law, we will
not raise our meat as a great many
do i.o.v, l)iit will do like Marion, go
to tlm nextcountv that has plenty
of stock, Then Marion can not buy
from us.
In reply to Mr. Howell. 1 will say
that it is cheaper to fence the farms
than to fence the county line and
ten thousand pastures also.
We do not need the "no fence law
so we can clear larger farms, for it
is better to enrich a sn ail farm than
to work so much land for a sorry
crop.
1 believe in intensive farming
more than extensive farming. Some
fear the labor will leave us. It
seems to me that there would be
more hirelings as there is so many
that has not land suilicicnt for a
pasture. It is a sorry man who
would vote for a law so he can force
his neighbors to hire to him for a
very little price and pay him in paper
checks, which he must trade
back for provisions and pay a starvation
price.
1 am ready to join in with the
Daisy people and Mr. Ludlam of
Adrian and help to vote this meas
ure down.
