EDITORIAL. OBSERVATIONS. It has been a long time since we were accustomed to take long trips in a buggy or on horseback. The rail roads have come and when a long trip is demanded, the horse and buggy are not to be thought of. The times are too fast, and life has be come too intense, for the slow modes of travel practiced by our fathers. We had an old uncle to die only a few years ago who rode on horseback to Philadelphia to attend a course of medical lectures, and we ourself can remember when a pleasure carriage or even a buggy was a luxury thought to be far beyond the reach of men of moderate means. Now, for purposes of travel, carriages and buggies are antiquated, and the faithful horse can stand in the stable, while his restless owner is whirled over the country at the rate of forty miles an hour. We doubt if people are made happier by this wonderful in crease in the speed of travel or by any other of the great conveniences of modern progress. The truth is happiness comes largely, if not entirely from within and not from without. It is born ia the hearc and is almost, if not quite, independent of outward circumstances and sur roundings. However this may be, none of us would go back to the old, slow times if we could. We must keep up with the rushing spirit of this age, though in so doing we strain all the powers of life to their utmost tension. For ourself, while we rejoice in the wonderful advances that have been made in every department of mate rial life, and while we want our full share of all the benefits that have been brought by such advances, yet we love occasionally when time and opportunity will permit, to fall back into the old ruts, to got away from the newspapers and the rail roads, and the rush and roar of the business world—away from candi dates, politics, creditors, and all other modern nuisances—and spend a few days under circumstances that will permit quiet, undisturbed re flection and leisurely observation. Such an opportunity occurred, or rather was made to occur, at the beginning of lust week, and in com pany with one who has borne us com pany though many a hardship and trial and has become all the dearer as the years have worn away, wo started on a trip of some fifty miles across portions of Cherokee, Spar tanburg and Laurens counties. We were impressed soon after leaving home with the fact that very great improvements have been made in the country roads since we traveled them a few years ago. Though we perhaps passed over the hilljest and roughest sections of the country, crossing Tacolet and the Tygers, yet everywhere wo found the roads in tine condition, and at every stream we found safe, sub stantial bridges. This is a long step forward—almost as long a one us that from wagon roads to railroads. The people are at last waking up to the importance of good reads, and they will not take a step backward in this work, but will gojon improv ing them, until we have as fine roads as they have in Pennsylvania or Massachusetts. From Rich Hill on the Spartan burg and Union R. R., to Foster’s Mill on Fair Forest, the road runs through some of the finest lands to be found in South Carolina. They are rolling lands, indeed in some places very broken and hilly, but we do not remember to have seen a sin gle gully, nor did we note any ter races or ditches. The soil is red, and the absence of gullies would in dicate that it is of a kind that will | not wash. The crops of corn, cot ton, and peas that cover it are su perb, and we do not believe can be surpassed in the state or hardly in any other state. We fell into a conversation with a gentleman living in a neat cottage by the road side, and on inquiry from us us to the price of such land he said: “Well, there is hardly any of it for sale, I was oilered, a few weeks ago, $-7.oO an acre for mine, and I reckon if 1 were offered$30.00, I should take it.” How does such a price sound for farming land ton miles from town and at least five miles from a rail road ? Another thing that impressed us, was the great number of beautiful homes that we noticed. In travel ing a distance of fifty miles through a region remote from towns and highways, we hardly saw a single dilapidated or neglected looking home. All along the journey neat cottages peeped forth from shady groves or stood prim and modest among the blushing flowers, or nes tled off among the hills and valleys as if too coy to exhibit the little world of love and happiness that they contain. Here and there, too, stately mansions rose displaying more wealth and a larger degree of financial success on the part of the owner, but giving no evidence of a larger degree of contentment and happiness on the part of the inmates. We were compelled, too, to note the uniform politeness of the people. We do not think that we err when we say that we did not meet a man nor boy who did not politely tip his hat and give us a pleasant smile as we passed. This circumstance may seem to some of our readers too in significant to mention in print, but we think it indicates a great deal. It indicates that while the country is rapidly advancing in material pros perity the people are also advancing in refinement and culture—that they are cultivating the social virtues, the little social amenities that sweeten our associations with one another and impart a charm to life. On Thursday we attended a re union of the Lanford family at An tioch, near Enoree, in the lower part of Spartanburg county, where we met over live hundred people all be longing more or less directly to the different branches of this numerous family. The day was rainy ot several hundred more would have been present. The historical fact was brought out that a little over a hundred years ago, a man by the name of Lanford came to that part of the country from Virginia, and now his descendants direct and re mote are to be counted by thousands. A magnificent dinner was spread for the crowd, and so interesting were the proceedings that it was unani mously voted to make the reunion a permanent institution to be held once a year. Woodruff is one of the prettiest towns in the Sftate and is surrounded by a fine country populated with in dustrious, thriving, Christian people. When we left Woodruff seventeen years ago it was a straggling hamlet with two or three stores and some half dozen resident families. Now it is a thriving town of perhaps seven or eight hundred inhabitants. It has four churches, handsome school build ings and about twelve stores. An oil mill is in process of construction and the citizens talk of establishing a bank in the near future. We made our headquarters while there at the homes of S. G. and W. A. Anderson, who under the firm name of Anderson Eros., are driving a thriving mercan tile business, and who are never too busy to do a man a kindness. They enjoy and deserve the confidence and esteem of all who know them. A. B. Woodruff, so well known over the whole county is the Nestor of the town. J. B. Kilgore, at whose refined and cultured homo we spent a de lightful evening, is a strong and ris ing man, while there are many others whom we number among our friends and consider worthy of any town or county. We had the pleasure of spending part of a day with the charming fam ily of Mr. L. E. Lanford, who lives in the western suburbs* of the town. Mr. Lanford is a farmer and began life with limited means, and though ho is not yet far on the shady side of forty hq has by pluck, enterprise and industry acquired a handsome com petence. Ho has uu elegant home with every convenience and comfort around, and owns over four hundred acres of land near the town. Much of his land in our boyhood was poor and barren, old fields, but under his magic touch it has been transformed from a barren waste to a blooming and rustling wilderness of corn and cotton. He showed us one field of cotton which we are confident will yield two halos to every acre. He has a herd of fine Jersey cattle and he showed us two Berkshire ‘‘pigs’ as he called them, which will at this time weigh at least 4.'»0 lbs. each. They are increasing in weight at the rate of two pounds each per day. He is ahead in the world. He has two beautiful and accomplished daugh ters, to both of whom he has given a collegiate education, and he is ready to do the same for his younger child ren as fast as they arrive at the proper age. The secret of his success is that he reads, and thinks and works. He studies tlie science of farming as laid down by others, and sometimes writes himself for the agricultural pa pers,but he doesn't ignore his own ob servations and experience and go wild over “book farming.” Who says that fanning doesn't pay? We cannot in this article say the half of what we should like to say. We have seen enough within the last week to impress us with the fact that our people are advancing in material prosperity at a rate which has no precedent. The earth is almost groaning under the weight of the crops, the trees are breaking under their load of luscious fruit and every where there is a super-abundance of everything needed by man and beast. The people are rapidly rising to a higher plane of life and pressing on, we trust, to a nobler destiny. THAT BOND ONCE AGAIN. There is sorrow and tribulations in the hearts of some of the people of Cherokee township who voted them selves into the new county of Chero kee. If they could undo that bad day’s work their souls would be re joiced. When their help was sought to organize the new county they were promised if the proposition should be successful that the town of Gaffney would erect a court house and jail without cost to the county. The town council and citizens of the town entered into a bond of .$15,000 to Cherokee county as security that the necessary grounds would be pur chased and the promised buildings erected. In lieu of the payment of the bond the town council offered the county as a court house a build ing erected for municipal purposes with the ground for a jail. The county commissioners accepted the offer and thereupon a fight was made to annul the action of the commis sioners and to compel the town to carry out its contract, made before the election. The mutter was taken into the courts, with the result as reported by the Ledger that Judge Townsend holds that the commis sioners had the right to accept the present court house and grounds for a jail in liquidation of the $15,000 bond.—Ilocri Hill Herald. We would respectfully remind the Herald that the only people wo have heard of as being lilied with sorrow and tribulation for having voted for the county of Chero kee are those who are seeking office for themselves or their friends. We had expected better things of the Herald than the intimation that the people of Gaffney had broken faith or even attempted to do so with the peo ple of the county. Wo are glad of the opportunity, however, of taking the above article as a text and preach ing a sermon on it as it gives us a chance to set the matter aright, not only before the Herald’s eyes, but before anyone who may have been misled in this matter. When the matter of a new county was being discussed in ISHG Gaffney City agreed to furnish the court house and jail or give $15,QJv> for that purpose. At that time the city did not have the money but made the proposition to pay that sum ut the end of twelve years and iu the meantime to let the county use the city hall for court house purposes. In order to secure the people of the county about seventy of the repre sentative business men signed a bond in the amount of $15,000, with the understanding, of course, that the city of Gaffney would liquidate the same. This time was given in order that the city might have ample time to raise the money from its legit imate channel of taxes. AfteJ the trustees turned over the bond to the county commissioners the town tendered, in payment of the bond, which will not be due for ten years yet, the city hall and lot and an ad ditional lot on which to build the jail. This was done for the express purpose of relieving the city from its obligation. It was and is still be lieved by many of the citizens of the county that the property off red was equal to the face value of the bond. The county commissioners decided that it was, and rather than run any risk, they decided to accept the offer. The town purchased the lot and made a tender of the entire property to the county commissioners. In the mean time however, the county commis- eiotiers rescinded their action. The town had boon put to the expense of purchasing tlio extra lot and they decided that inasmuch as they had been put to this extra expense they would bring action against the county commissioners to compoll them to comply with their agreement. Tlio courts decided that the county commissioners had to comply with their contract. This is the whole matter in a nut shell. There was no juggling about it. The commissioners decided not to appeal from the decision of the court. And thus the matter is set tled. In our humble opinion the county commissioners have made a good trade. We endorse it as such and in that endorsement we believe 'we have the support of the majority of the thinking people of this county. At any rate there seems to be but little dissatisfaction about the mat ter and from what we can see the op position comes principally from the friends and supporters of some of the gentlemen who are endeavoring to make the matter an issue in this campaign. The people of Cherokee did a good day’s work when they voted them selves into a new county and we know if the matter was left to a vote there is no influence which could be brought to bear that would induce them to go back into the old coun ties. In fact we could name a num ber of influential men who voted against the new county who are now tho heartiest supporters of the county. ENTRIES FROM OUR DAY BOOK. Place no faith in the blatherskite. Loud promises are not always sincere promises. The man who promises nothing is more apt to make you a good officer than the man who prom ises much. Be sure before you promise a man to vote for him that he is the best man who offers himself for that posi tion. It is only by being careful in this respect that Cherokee county may have good officers. We deprecate the fact that some of the candidates are resorting to the treating habit to secure votes. The man who will stoop to such a thing is unworthy of the trust and the peo ple should see to it that he is left at home. What Cherokee needs is men of character and stability to occupy her county officers and every Cherokeean should make it his business to see to it that his ticket has no man’s name on it who does not possess these qual ifications. Pick out the best men regardless of your peraonal prefer ences. Be u man and let no man make you his tool. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ For four and a half yeaJS The Ledger has labored among tne peo ple of this county, endeavoring to do its duty as it saw it. In that time we have never betrayed a trust or advocated a cause but what we be lieved to be just and right. We shall not at this late day swerve from the line of duty. We feel it our duty to do what we can to keep this united people united and we, regret that there are efforts being made to dis rupt the people. So help us God we would rather that our right arm should fall palsied at our side and refuse to do our bidding than to do ought to the detriment of our peo ple. Th's court house question has been settled. We believe it has been settled to the good of the whole peo ple. Do not for a moment think that the town of Gaffney could afford to be faithless to the county. The town is a part of the county and if it is untrue to the county it is un true to itself. Besides, the prosperty of the town depends upon the pros perity of the county and the town cannot prosper without the good will of the country. Surely we would not prove untrue to ourselves. The county commissioners made a good trade. They are honest, upright, men and would not betray theii trust. They could not afford to do it be cause they are of the country them selves. $ioo Reward, $100.

We would not suggest one* single man for whom the people should vote. If you want to vote for a man and belie vo he is the best man for the position to which he aspires vote for him, but in the name of com mon sense, justice and honor do not vote for a man for the simple reason that he advocates fighting this town. If be lias other good qualities vote for him because of those good qualities, but not because he endeavors to raise strife between town and country. And bo man enough to tell him so, too. You are freemen, so be free men indeed. i - - ■■■ a a Powell Locals. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Powell, Aug. 10.—Rey. F. C. Hickson filled his appointment ut Macedonia Sunday.
