ENDORSES GOOD ROADS.
? And Asks for Further Information.
Mr. Spivey Gives Light on the
Subject.
Dear Sir: I saw Senator Spivey's
Good Ruads bill published in the
Herald for the benefit of the voters,
and read what he had to say, I
have been talking with some of the
men of my township concerning the
Bill and they seem to think it alright:
provided ihe present 2 mill
levy will bo sufficient to pay the
i . interest on the bonds and enough
~J^to redeem them when they come
due We would like to know how
much money the 2 mill levy will
raise in a year. Poi the benefit of
the voters of my township, I wish
Col. Spivey would give this information.
Respectfully,
Wm. Burgess.
Burgess, S. C.
Mr. Spivey was shown the above
communication and ask if could and
would give the information sought.
*T am more than pleased to do so"
he replyed: Tne present assessed
" value of property in our county is
near three million dollars. The two
mill levy will rake about $(>,000 , If
the bonds are sold at> 5 per cent we
hope to get thorn at 4 1-2 per cent
the interest yearly wrll be $5,000.
The 10,000. will accordingly pay
the interest and leave $1,000. to be
placed in th3 sinking fund the first
year with which to redeem the bonds
From year to year we expect the
property of our county to increase,
thus making the 2 mills raise more
each year. The interest beinf ja
permanent amount, the total increase
will be added to the redemption
fund.
"At the end, say of 15 years we
can safely hope that our property
will be near double what is isto-dnyThe
2 mills in this case yielding $12,
000 annually: With an average even
of four million dollars property,
the 2 mills will raise $3,000. a year
above the interest. In 20 years
this would amount to $00,000 Thus
redeeming the $50, 000. worth of
Bonds, as provided in the Bill, and
leaving a cash surplus of $10,000
besides.
"The remaining half will be much
easier raised, because tho iuterest.
will be cut in half, while our pro
perty will bo double:!. This calculation,
you will uote, docs not take
into account the iutorest accumulating
from the sinking fund, which
will amount to many thousand dollars
during the whole 20 and 30
years same being likewise used in
redeeming the bonds. My candid
opinion is that the bonds under this
arrangement will be paid before
they are due, and the county will
have a good siz3 surplus fund remaining.
"
"At any rate, it is likely that 30
years from to-day, the writer of this
article, together with a great majority
of the rtaders hereof, will
have "passed over the river." We
can only trust that our posterity
will bo sulliciently able to take care
of the problem as it then arises.

us that ?ve and cur children are to
receive the benefits accruing from
the scheme all these years and that
without any extra cost to the tax
payer. Jf our friends are so much
interested in our prospective "grand
children, "I know of no better
legacy to leave them than a system
of good roads."
"Another feature of this plan to
be considered is the amount of money
it will bring into our county and
be circulated among our citizens
Instead of draining the county of
funds, as some suggest, it will be
^ the direct opposite* None of the
local banks, or any individual in the
county, will be in a position to handle
the bonds at this low rate of
interest. The commissioners will
have to place them in northern or
western markets, and thus bring in
now money to be dispensed among
the laborers of the county. I take
it for granted that the board and
the supervisor will let the contract
for the construction of the roads to
local parlies in each community and
thus keeping the funds at home. We
will accordingly have the good roads
and the money still in our midst,
<4I will further explain that the
plan outlined doas not efi'ect the
present road law at all, it remains
the same. That is, the $11 commutation
tax or six days labor will
continue as heretofore and will serve
to keep the roads repaired and in
good condition after they are built.
In fact I believe that, should the
funds derived trom me saio 01 mu
bonds be sufficient to build a reasonably
good system in the county, the
present <3 commutation tax cau be
V lowered to $1. or 3 days labor. We
must remember that the cost 01
keeping up a gocd road is almost
nothing. With a system of modern
highways, the matter of road tax,
or the old custom of "road working'
farnilar to us boys of 16, will be a
thing of the past, So mote it b(!'"

Nothing uncertain about the work
of Doan's Kidney Pills in Conway
There is plenty of positive proof of
this in the testimony of citizens.
Such evidenoe should convince the
most skeptical doubter. Read the
following statement:
Mrs R H Anderson, Conway, SC.,
says* 4<Doan's Kidney Pills made me
feel like a different woman and T am
pleased to recommend them. For
sometime my back and kidneys troubled
me. There was a constant ache
through my loins and headaches also
rwM 1 .1
bothered me. xne Kiuney st-urutions
were unnatural arid showed
that my kidneys were disordered.
After using Doan's Kidnev Pills,
procured at the Norton Drug Co.,
rry aches and pains ceased and the
headaches and that tired feeling disappeared.
