Herald of our Last Weeks
Issue.
Editor Herald:? In my article
which appeared in the Herald of the
17th inst, 1 incidentally threw a few
rocks into the Hock of political and
otlicial birds.
I expected that if in shelling the
woods with the hope of bringing the
....... 1 m.'y. . i ?.
uai uuliiui in I' UCbS UI1U r igures
out with an article over his own
name, I should happen to strike one
of the birds, lie would futter. Now
as Mr. Hoyd undertakes to defend
the "Facts and Figures" article, and
at the same time denies the authorship
of it, he must be the wounded
one.
He misquotes me when he makes
me say the road machinery had been
bought and paid for. If your readers
will refer to the Herald of the
17th inst., thoy^will see that I said
no such thing, although I did have
an idea and do yet, that the thing
must have been ordered, or it would
not have come, and that Mr. Hoyd
must have claimed to be the custodian
of it, or he would not have taken
it otV of the train, and if my information
is correct, that he has
authorized the use of the thing this
week on the road between Conway
and Hucksport.
It seems that he is still claiming j
t<i be its custodian, so Mr. Kditor, I
yet have the idea that if II irr>
county does not pav lor that m,chine
she will pay a big lawyer's fee to get
rid of it. We shall see. if the
shortage in the Supervis u 's olliee
has been paid as he says, it mint
have been paid',, and abs >rb d be
t ween last MarXh court and the lirst
of August, because it was due at
court, and the 1st of August, "Facts
and Figures" says there is not a
dollar in the Treasury for ordinary
county purposes.
Now, if Mr, Hoyd is correct in
stating that the money has been
paid, then the stubborn fact remains,
that Horry county has absorbed ail
the funds for ordinary county purposes
as provided by law, and this
shortage of over $1400.00 also preuin.io

public would like to know what for
but Mr, Boyd undertakes to <jive us
more facts and figures, llesavs: "It
is a fact that the last settlement was
for fourteen months instead of
twelve." So Mr. Boyd by some
new discovered business method, has
discovered a fiscal year with fourteen
months.
Now, Mr. Kditor, the Constitution
expressly says that the fiscal year,
shall run from the 1st of January to
the 1st of the next January, but 1 am
told by the treasurer that the 1st of
June is the time for the annual settlement,
but if June is the time required
for the annual settlement
and the settlement is deferred to the
1st of August, it could not take into
consideration any expenditures except
those, between June the 1st 1904
and June 1st 1905. So any money
rvit'l rvufr l?" ?'
vwj wj i iiuuk or UUHM'WISC 111
Juno or July did not. 001110 into tlio
August settlomont, but must ooinc
in tlie next June settlement.
Mr. Boyd presents more of those
misterious facts and figures indicating
to the public that the groat moral
institution cannot and must not,
be disputed with as a source of revenue,
in answer to which 1 will give
some facts and figures.
Before the dispensary was ever
thought of, from 1880 to 181)0, when
the assessed value of property in
Horry was about$1,500,000.00. During
those ten years, my recollection
is that the tax levy for ordinary
county purposes averaged about 8
mills and did not exceed 1 mills, but
one year in the ten, and now the assessed
value of property is about
double what it was then, and we
have 0 mills tax now on that increased
value of property, and yet
Mr. Boyd insists that we must add
$5,500.00 raised from whiskey to
this ever Increasing tax levy in order
to meet expenses of county government.
I
1 wonder i 1* Mr. Boyd does not
hold the pen while the author of
"Facts and Figures" moves it.

THE CASE DISMISSED.
HEARING A I I hMHil) BY LARGE
CROWD OI: PEOPLE.
I Jolin >V. Blount of Tabor. IN. C-.
| Tried Under Ctiarjrc of Breach
of Trust With fraudulent
Intention.
John W. Blount, one of the truck
growers of the Tabor section, was
tried at Boris last Friday ur.der a
charge of breach of trust with fraudulent
intention, the warrant sworn
out by VV. K. Holt another grower
and shipper of truck. After hearing
the testimony offered by the
State, Magistrate T. J. IVinee dismissed
the ease on the ground that
the State had failed to make out a
ease from I lie r?i?iflene<? 115 m
The hearing was attended by
quite a number of people, and the
question seemed to be of interest to
many of the truck growers of that
section.
The question arose out of tin* following
facts, which are published
for the information and benefit of
all concerned
During the strawberry season of
this year, both Mr. Holt and Mr.
Hlount, had represented limit growers
associations, and shipped berries
as agents for various growers belonging
to t heir respective assoeia
lions. It was agreed between Messrs.
I toll and Hlount that on days alien
neither had sullieient crates to load
a car, they would ship toget her, Mr.
Hlount consigning the car on one
day and Mr. Holt on the next < hi
Mavoth the car was consigned by
Mr. Hlount containing 102 orates of
berries put in by Mr. Ilolt., and it
was brought out in tin* testimony
that about thelhidanl ilrd days of
Mav the cars had been consigned
by Mr. Ilolt containing quantities
of berries put in bv Mr. Hlount.
(>n May f>lh there was no ear, and
Mr. Hlount took a bill of lading for
the whole ear, and later put in a
claim with the railroad co;npan\ and
a few weeks ago 1 he claim was paid
to him by the railroad or the car
t ... I > I /. \l .. U .I. ... ..I I... 4 1
|n v>|/iv. .<11. nun .iniirn I Hill IM'
had also put. in rliiuis covering the
berries that had been shipped with
him bv Mr. Blount, but that lie had
been unable so far to make collections.
When Mr llolt applied to
Mr. Blount to pay over to him the
proceeds of the Id- crates, he refused
to pay it to him on the ground
that as Mr. Holt had shipped berries
for him (Blount,) lie would hold
the money he had collected against a
settlement whenever lie (Mr. llolt) (
should also make collections, and
on the further ground that he hud
been advised to so hold the money
by the members of his association.
The result of the refusal to pay
over was followed by the warrant '
charging breach of trust, but as no
fraudulent intent was proved, the <
ease could not be sent up to court,
ft. was a preliminary hearing and
the defendant had no opportunity to
put up evidence in his own behalf,
but it was ascertained as a fact outside
of the trial that the money received
by Mr. Blount had been do- (
posited in specie by him to lie held
in trust for the growers until such ,
time as a settlement could be made, i
The defendant was represented by i
II. II. Woodward, lCsq., and the 1
State by B. WolYord Wait, 10s<|.
The prosecution lias taken another
warrant which will tie heard next
week.

DISI'I NSAKY QUESTION.
II I* Discussed hy a Ciood Writer
ITont Socast?c.
Kditor Herald?I feel much disappointed
seeing no response from
Socastee on tho dispensary question.
The question is of such vital importance
to both soul and body that
everybody should feel interested.
Some personal observation of this
writer may not be out of place. I
have visited a number of stjlls,
licensed and illicit. Kverything connected
with the business is immorality,
ungodliness and filthy lucre
in the full sense of the term, the
illicit stills are run as circumstances
permit, the wife and sons and
daughters arc engaged in the lawloss
business. It would be too tedious
to particularize the schemes resorted
to, to prevent detection. Lawlessness
of this kind in the making
and selling is managed on the principle
of stealing which is sure to
blast the moral character of anyone
so engaged.
Now if the voters sup(>ort the
sale of this abominable stuff, ao,.nlw,li?
i; -
. w..v,,.v, .HJUWI, ?i- support iiH! manufacture
<if it. Tho majority that
advocate tlic dispensary so strongly
arc in place to i/lean at the dispen sary
crib, tliereforo they have an
axe to j/rind, personal interest.
Some think that the school fund
is to bo considered, when wo consider
that so much has to bo paid
to ^ot a nicklo for tho school fund,
and unclean money when we get it;
lets drop the school fund question.
It is amazingly strange that some
people professing Cjodliness will
persist in supporting and abetting
the liquor traflic. In the last general
election some eanidates tried
money and whiskey to run themselves
successfully through, bit it
failed them. A strong advo?ate for
one of those fellows approached me
in hi>s behalf, statin*/ that this can
delate had already spent over three
thousand dollars to secure his
election. 11 is money and whiskey
failed to elect him, and may he be
politically dead. When we see so
much corrupt chenies used througn
the influence of whiskey and the
degrading immoral ungodly effect
upon those that use it, it is to the
interest of the people of Horry and
the Slide to vote it out and keep it
out. It can be done by united determined
action J. I). Newton.
