The Myrtle Beach Development 'ompany was organized here a few , lays ago with a capital stock of 175,000.00, for purpose of purchas ing, improving and selling real estate, and for the purpose of draining and clearing the fertile swamplands near Myrtle Beach. The large swamp near Myrtle Beach, containing several thousand acres, part of which has already been cleared and found to be very productive, will be drained and cleared, and for this drainage purposes the corporation has acquired all the privileges of a drainage corporation as provided by the laws of the State. That nortion of the swuirm lnnda in that section which has boon cleared has proved to be highly fertile and productive. While large farms have already been cleared, yet there is room for still larger clearings, and the main purpose of the company is to drain and clear the large areas of these uncleared lands. Messrs. b\ A. Burroughs, B. (?. Collins and J. E. Bryan are the officers of the corporation, and the business qualifications of these gentlemen are a sure guarantee of the success of this enterprise.

A. wowooeot A IL'RIIIIK ST ATT: Ml: INT Made t.y llie Supervisor In K'eirard to llic Trouble in lli* Office Editor IIkiiai.u: ? 1 ho|>c tliut von will not get weary or impatient with me, and will allow ine space for a few more words in relation to the matter in my oltice. I made a statement through your columns of week before last, and made it just as I felt it. J did not, nor do I aim, at charging any certain individual as being the guilty party in regard to the m> called shortage in mv of lice; I will let the people judge for themselves. I know that I am us innocent as an inlant, and if there is a guilty party. | hope that it, will be shown who it is. I .said ;n my statement that the clerk had assumed the responsibility aid try reasons for stating that was this: t made security and paid every eent of the shortage, and since then the elerk has made security to me and my ollicial bondsman t?? eover said amoun t. So far as my personal dealings with the elerk of tlie board of County Commissioners are concerned they have have always been pleasant, and so fas as public dealings are concerned it is generally understood by the people especially all concerned. The ailidavit appearing in last week's issue did not appear together with my statement exactly as 1 thought it was, but, however, that is Mr. Moore's statement and not mine. The clerk says he is going out to look up those parties, and I intend that all of them that are in existance shall be found, and if there are some who cannot bo found, and the elerk pays such an amouat as may be covered by those who cannot bo found, that will be sufficient, and it is a fact now that he is under papers suflicicnt to cover the amount. It had been disputed that he had made any security whatever, but it is a fact, that 1 hold papers against lii-n for a sufficient amount to cover any and ail of the shortage Now as I have not tried toiclloct on any one I hope this will give satisfaction. A gain I will :-ay that if my existance on earth was now within a moment's time of ? 1 1 ... ii? im; rim, i wouiu jo torced oy truth fulness lo say that 1 am innocent unci never have realized one cent of I lorry county *8 money unlawfully, and 1 am willing* to face the same in another world, where 1 will stand Acquitted of any charge.
