all of whom are doing fairly well.
Wo all have sutlicicnt reasons for
returning thanks to Almighty God
for the blessings of tho past year,
but we cannot show our thanks by
getting drunk.
Melvin Watson, tho negro murderer
paid the penalty of his crime
by hanging last Priday. His end
should be a warning to other eyily
disposed persons.
The cost of living is away out of
proportion in comparison with
wages. This should not be so, to
the contrary they should be as equal
as it is ]>ossibe to make them.
President Tafi has ended his junketing
over the country and is now
resting ftvm his labors at Washington.
He nrovnd :v himI i r <rr\<wl
drawn.g card for fairs and the cities
visited by him.
There are several vacant lots in
the heart of the business section of
the city that would greatly add to
their attractiveness were they occupied
by handsome buildings instead
of being allowed to grow up in
weeds,
^
it is currently reported that some
further improvements to the Ilorry
Tobacco Warehouse are contemplated
so as to give more tloor room.
Manager Howies is in hopes that
the additions and alterations will be
made in time to handle the next
crop as he anticipates largely increased
sales.
<
Horry ought and should have
many more rural free delivery routes
The necessity for them is imperative
in order that the farmer may
keep up with the spirit of the
times. These routes arc of inestimable
value to* tlie rural districts
as it delivers the mails daily to residents
along the route practically at
their dcors and thus greatly facilitates
business.
A largo real estate owner of Conway
is having a block or so cut up
into convenient building lots with
the view of placing them on the
market. This property is elligibly
situated and is very desirable for
residential or business purposes and
no doubt will be in. demand at fair
prices. We are glad to note that
this properl\ ir; to be turned looso
as it means more improvements.

Something of a hurry of excitement
was created over the State
when it ticca me known that G. C.
Hicham, who was convicted, together
with W. H. Avant, at a recent
term of the Georgetown court of
manslaughter in connection with
the killing of Mrs Higham at Murr>
life Inlet and sentenced to three
and a half years in the penitentiary
some months previous. For some
reasons the appeal to the Supreme
court was not perfected and Solicitor
Wells wired Sheriff Scurry of
Georgetown to arrest both defend
ants, Avant, on learning of this
went to Georgetown and surrendered
himself but Higham, after a
diligent search, could not ho located
and the Sheriff of Florence was wired
to make the arrest. He, too, fail ed
to locate Bingham, and it is supposed
that be forfeited bio $1,500
bond and i.-: a fugativc from justice.
It is said that Judge Watts, the
trial judge, is of the opinion that
the bond has not vet been forfeited
as the con view d men are under the
jurisdiction of the Supreme court,
and Bit/hum has yet time lo surrender
himself.
Many have the opinion that should
the bond be forfeited, this will relieve
Bit gham of serving his sentence
of three and a half years. This
is not the ease, however, for the
bond was conditioned upon the sur
render of the defendants to the
Sheriff of Georgetown should the
findings of the lower court be affirmed
by the Supreme court. Bigham
is as much under sentence as if
he had never forfeited his bond, and
should he he captured he will have
to serve the three and a half years
in addition to losing the forfeit of
the $1,500 paid by his bondsmen.
I.KT'S liET TOGETHER
Somehow or another the spirit of
industrial activity i 11 Conway seems
to bo sleeping, if not quite dead and
wo are by no means enjoying that
era of prosperity which we are entitled
to and should have?by reason
of inheritance as well as acquirement.
,
To all intents and purposes we
arc resting idly upon our oars and
allowing golden opportunities to
slip by unheeded and unimproved in
our lethargic and fatal policy of
waiting for our children and their
children to come upon the scone of
action and accomplish that which
wo ought to do ourselves. Thoro is
no excuse, whether real or imaginary,
for tho existonco of this condition
of afTairs, unless it be the result
of a lumcntablo case of careless indilTorenco
to our own interests and
an acute complaint of unadulterated
laziness which percolates through
our entire system stunting our vitality,
stagnating our energies and
fettering our enterprise, all of which
makes us a people to be pitied at
well as censured.
The woods of 1 lorry abound in
nature's chaotic profusion with
raw material inviting tho investment
of capital and the application
of energy to turn them into merchantable
commodities which will return
to us wealth and prosperity an
hundred fold. Our towns are overMowing
with opportunities which if
put to practical use will build up our |
waste places and make the wheels (
of industry hum with the gladsome 1
->ong cm prosperity winch moans "a
big hank account and a full dinner
pail,"
It really seems that we are drifting
back into the old ruts in which our
fathers traveled in the days and
years gone by and which have served
out their days of usefulness and
which should now oe only mementoes
of the unequalled struggles and
hardships suil'ored and endured by
the pioneers of civilization and of
progress in the great tragedy of
life?for life from tho cradle to the
grave is made up of tragedy?and
who have crossed the Great Divide
and are resting from their labor in
the silent cities of the dead, in order
that their posterity may enjoy the
fruits (7f their labors, and the more
richer and more glorious heritage
coming to them by the changing environ
merit of time and conditions,
and apparently we are making but
little or no effort to better our conditions
and send Conway booming
along the highway of prosperity.
Certain it is that none of us are doing
our full share of pushing. We
are somewhat of laggards along this
tine and, having our hands on the
wheel we busy ourselves too much
id watching the other fellow to see
if he is doing his full share of labor
and at the same time neglecting our
opportunities and fading to perform
our plain duty in rendering effective
assistance in pushing it out of the
mire. Were this not the case we
would today be listening to the hum
and the noise and the bustle of the
machinery of varied manufactories
and their aided industries. Cotton
factories and cotton seed oil mills
would have long since been established
in our midst and would have
seen the creations of own brawn
and brains prosper in our hands,and
llourish under our guidance and direction,
and our population largely
increased by the addition of a live,
energetic and progressive citizenship.
One among some of the great
needs of Conway today is unanimity
among its business interests. This,
sad to relate, is not as stong and
potent as it should be. If there was
more of the spirit of a community of
interests?if our people would pull
together for the advancement of the
best interests of Con way, then better
and greater results would follow
what efforts which might to put
forth to improve conditions. Then,
again, we need leaders. Men endowed
with a reasonable amount of
business sagacity and having suHici
cm commence in ineir aomiy to carry
a thing along and can inspire others
with the same amount of confidence.
Men who have the courage t.o blaze
the way to newer and greater dolopments
in material progress. Men
who are not contented to sit down
and wait for things to turn up, but
will mako opportunities and turn
the in to good account. Having
these necessary elements in our business
fabric Conway will then become
what she ought to have long ago
been? the pearl of the Pee Doe.
