WOODWARD, Editor and Manager. THURSDAY JUNE, 15th. 1005. Conway is the placo for new manufacturing enterprises. * * # Tiierk is promise now that before long the town will have the streets lighted by electricity. * * # Those who sided with Russia at the beginning of the war were few and those few arc very silent now. ft * * The tobacco crop this year is not estimated as being very large and the farmers are apt to get fair prices for it. * * * VVk receive many inquiries about Con nay and Horry couuty which we answer as fully as we can, but the town should have a live board of trade or something of the kind and then these enquiries could be handled in bettor style. Tiikrk is much being said over the State just now about the dispensary law and the liquor problem generally. It is a question about which there has always beon much discussion and difference of opinion. The problem which has always bafiled men, is a problem still and bailies them yet, in spite of all the discussion, arguments pro and con, and the numberless experiments that have been made and the plans that have been tried. On a question of this kind the Herald has always preferred to let each man have his own opinion. Eldorado. Some rain is needed. Crops are looking well. A. T. Suggs has the finest corn the writer has seen this season. D. J. Stevens has line tobacco. W. C. Boyd visited friends here last Sunday. Gi W.

Jasper Page, one of our up-todate farmers, has fenced in a large piece of new ground which has added greatly to tho appearance of his place. Willie Elliott of Zoan was here last monday on business. Ceamor Fowler of Tobor, N. C., spent part of last week at W. 0. Pages'. The farmers have the old general looking sick since tho rain ceased. With good luck from now on they will bo victorious. We would be glad to have the chain gang on tho Nigh Cut . We hope the Supervisor will rush tho boys and get them down hero to improve our road. It seems liko it is about time for someone to say something about a picnic. We would liko to have ono at McQueen's Bridge. B. E. Iron Sprlnjrft. The farmers, after a hard fight are about to conquer the grass. Mr. and Mrs E. N.Thompson Adrian were visiting friends and relatives near here last Saturday and Sunday. Some of tho young men near hore have made application, to the Knights of Honor. Wc hope them much success. Z. Q. Bullock had the misfortune to lose two fine milch cows not many days ago. The deaths were causod by poison. Pink Floyd of the Mt, Olive section died on Wednesday night Juno 7th, and was taken to the Floyd burial grounds near Nichols tho following day whero his body was laid to rest to await tho resurrection morn. He leaves a wife and ono child and a host of friends and relatives to mourn their loss, but we hope that their loss was his eternal gain. Subscriber. ^ roundlnf? ' bearlptf do1 K.ditor u ku ali> Wp bear much *lng said in regard to the dispon-1: lary, such expressions as,"Remove < the curse" etc. Now I may not be as well posted ! 3n this matter of whiskey selling as < some others, but I fear it is not a i prohibition tight at all. It seems that the object in view is to do away with the dispensary without stopping to consider whether or not we will have prohibition. I believe the sentimeut of the people I? stronger in favor of tho dispensary than either prohibition, high liciuso or local option. Hut of course it cannot withstand tho continued force of all these. It is a fact that some of our people aro wanting to do away with the dispensary because they want all whiskey selling stopped. They are working in good faith, but is it not also a fact that we have some who have long wautod to see tho dispensary done away with and at the same lime aro not prohibitionists? Now if the men who followed iloyt (only to defeat) have turned back and taken "Chicco's" crowd with them, wo may look for something. Now I think that wo had better have the dispensary than to have this amalgamation process or prohibition, when the sentiment is not sufficiently strong to prohibit. Blanche, S. C. B. F. CJ. June 12 'Oh INIxon ville. This section is enjoying very gtxxl health at present. We have had line weather for the past two weeks, tho farmers and general green has had a hard battic sintl tlwi .. W~..t - ? ? - - ? wuv? Kti uivsi o ill u cl UU U t IU prevail, as they are getting their crops in inuch bettor fix. Cotton and corn have very much improved. We were fortunate to escape the hail that recently passed through the county. We hear of a great deal of damage done elsewhere. A little rain would Do of service just now. Mrs. M. A. Royals and children of Shell were visiting her father and sisters here last Saturday and Sunday. Wo are much pleased at the prospects of haifing the bridge built across the Waccamaw near Conway. I think tho site selected by the committee at the ship yard will be the best place the}' could have selected, and we hupo it will be built as soon as possible as I look upon it as being very beneficial to the whole community. 1 hear of much being said in regard to the dispensary being obolished. I think it would be a blessidg to tho whole county. It is truly said that the sales of whirkey is increasing every year, and why? From the best information I can get, it is sold as any other merchandise regardless of law. It scorns that any person can buy the stuff without being questioned at all. If I understand anything about tho law it is not regarded at least this is the case at Toddville.- If the law was strictly observed I will venture the assertion that there would not bo one fourth the whiskey sold that is. The magistrate's court is kept busy just now. J. D. Watson's now dwelling is iiww cumpioieu ana no uas moved in. It mukos a line appearance and improves the looks of his place very much. Cor. Mollie, N. C The weather has cleared up and much weeds and grass have been cut. Mrs. 111. J. Long of this place spent last week with her parents and friends at Daisy returning home on Saturday accompanied by Mr and Mrs J. 11. Br in.son and Miss Martha Hardee.

Misses Mary and Francis Long visited friends in this section la-t Sunday. Russell and Ilinson Beck from Todd Town spent last Sundej evening with J. L. Prince. Sox. Ml. Olive. The health of this community is not very good at present. H, J. Lewis, one of our oldest citizens, is quite ill at this writing. Times are very quiet in our section. Farmers are very busy with their crops since the rains have ceased. Crops are looking very well at this writing. It seems that the farmers in our section cannot agree to materially reduce the acreago of cotton but Providence always provides and the cotton has been cut off just the same by the recent rains. ROV. Moses Prirlnrnn K5o ?^...o t egular appointment at Mt. Olive on the first Sunday and day before. The many friends of Pink Floyd will be pained to lnnrn of his death. He departed this life on June 7th. He was in the prime of manhood, of a kind disposition and loved by the community.

We are sorry to learn of serious illness of Miss Anstralia Hinson at Williamsburg. We learn that the disease is typhoid fever. Crops are looking well considering the unfavorable weather. The beautiful weather of last week has caused tho farmers to get the upper hand of general green. On Saturday June 10th a crowd i of our young folks met at the Jordan marsh lako for the nurj>ose of a fish ' fry, and it seemeu that all wore 1 pleased with the large strings of fish. A bountiful dinner was served. Tho young ladies were invited down to tho water for a beat ride. Cor. > After sunuriug uie 1AJSJ&* vnv/4 UV4 , ating pain froin cancerous affection on his :ace for more than a year, Mr. Mannasscth Thompson breathed his last at his homo near Adruin, on last Wednesday, Juno 7th, 1905. age about 00 years. Mr.Thompson was a Confodorate Veteran, having editored the Confederate service at the beginning of ' the bloody struggle" and faithfully' following the Confederate flag uatil the surrender of Lee,s army at Appomattox. Being the eldest son of Uev. John R. and Mrs. Clarkey Thompson, he was brought up under Christian influence, and obeying the injunction to "Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth", he united with Poplar M. E. church early in life and remained a faithful and consistent member of the same until his death. His doors were always open to all ministers of the Gospel regardless of denomination, and many who had enjoyed his hospitality, sympathized with him in his painful affliction, and joined their prayers with his for his recovery, but God knew best, and His will hath been done. Mr. Thompson married Miss. Mar garett Ludlam, and she with many friends and acquaintances survive him, and mourn his loss. Hut while we mourn, it is not as those who have no hope, for of him, it might truly be said, he "lived the life of the righteous and died the same. Although he had none of his own he was very fond of children, and many of the little ones of the community will long rcmenbor "Uncle Nassa," and their visits to his home, the apples and uoanuts they ate together and the beautiful stores he told them, will ever occupy a prominent place in their "fond recollections" of child-hood days. His remains now rest in the oltl family grave yard, near where most of his life was spent. A Friend. Gurlcy. ?Farmers arc busy. ?Crops look worse than in several years. ?J.

M. Prince has had the most severe case of small pox in this section. Daggett Fowler killed an alligator last week, measuring nearly seven feet in length. N. B. Mattic. Health generally good. Very little small pox but some are suffering from vaccination. Crops are improving, yet some are laying by corn quite small. Nathan Lewis and Miss F. V. Hardwick of Hickman spent Sunday with relatives and friends here. N. M Hardee aud MissL. B. Hardee of Bisco spent Saturday night and Sunday with Robt. Boyd. Services wore well attended at Simpson Crook church last Sunday. Miss Pearl Holmes of Shallottc, N. 0., spent last week hero with relatives and friends. Si/.er. I.abaiina.
