HOOD ItOADS \M> HltOAH Tilt ES. There is a bill ponding in 11?? - South Carolina legislature providing for n big bond Issue for the building of portnanonl roads In the state.We have n't the slight(????.( Idea Hud the bill will pass, or that the legislature will do ahything ?villi the question: any innre than the lax question or (ho whiskey question or any of the otln r big quos lions thai arc under conshlerallon. However in view of the agitation for permanent road Improvement and the vast amount < i Interest that is mani fested jasi now, an Idea i'i connection i In i ? w Ith Is nol out of place, 11 is the matter <>i' broad tires for wagon wheel*. I.a l we a | i ogi ? slvc fnriner oT tl.unl.v, one who observes mid who snows economy when he sees It, said: "Tin re's nol much it ?? talking about good roads without iigllnting nl the name lime, broad tires. ibid roads and narrow llros make an awful com? b'i.tuioni good rtmds with bad tiros Is n little heller, but nol Iho bo t: what is needed Is good roads and broad j tili s." On Ihe same line the Snturdn: liv ening 1*081 says: "Why," Inquires a South* rn eon-. .. pondenl, "do you anj* much about good roads and nothing at all about good wheels? Tests made by the Missouri Kxperlmeni station showed that with an Inch-and-a-half tire the average pull per ton on etirlh roads was eighty six pounds, and with the same tire oil macadam roads it was seventy-ono pounds; bul on Ihe same earth roads, with u six-inch lire, ihe iivornge pull ?was only sixty-one pounds. Hy iiu provlng roads you save llfteen pounds pull; by Improving ihn lire you save twenty live pounds." "Not long ago the superstition in fav or of nai row llros seemed incredible. Some cities, noting thai heavily-laden, narrow-tired wagons ruined the pave ments, sought to enforce the use of broad tirccs. The effort was resisted with a Vigor which suggested thill a teaming citizen's life, liberty and pur suit of happiness were ludlssolubly blended with the use of tires which not only ruined the pavement but also in-1 creased the pull of the load. The pre judice se uns to have no other basis than habit. That a heavy load on a narrow tire will affect country roads, whether improved or unimproved, as injuriously as the paved street of a oily Is BOlf-ovldent, "No extensive informal ion on the sub ject Is available; but we seem to re member mooting with more wldc-tlred vehicles in iho country than formerly. Probably Ihe constant object-lesson of the automobile, with its big lire, has had some educational value In thai direction." According (o the tests cited, broad t'.res reduce the pull by twenty live pounds; good roads reduce it flft0011 pounds. Now. what will ba the sav ing If we have both good roads and broad tires llllt how Call all the people no per AUadOtl to UBfl HlO broad tires? That is a matter that cannot bo accomplish ed In a day. nor in a year. If the wa gon dealers will sell only the broad tires, the results may be obtained in the course of a few years; in fact. In just about, the same time that the roads could be Improved. Hut one w ill say: "The merchants don't want to noil that kind because they won't wear OUt rapidly enough to keep up sales." That Is a false reckoning, just as the Mateniont that when automobiles were introduced, the value of horses would bo greatly decreased. Horse llesh nev er was so high as It is today. It is the same principle that works in the matter of new and Improved machin ery. Pome people used to say that with the increasing use of machinery lahorers would be thrown out of work. Not so; there are more people at work in this country today than ever before. And so It Is with good roads nnd wagonn; the merchant doesn't want ' the wagons he sells to wear out with . unnecessary rapidity. When It does, j >t constitutes an economic waste, which the whole system of business; In Is. The better wagons aro and the longer they last, the more of them that will be Hold, paradoxical as it may sound. The Rood roads movement Is on; it will take definite shape some day. in spite of the legisature, or with its assistance, It does not matter which. I tut the good roads and the broad tires should go together; the one aids the other, and in combination, will do away with a great economic loss. * ? ? A COUNTY MONUMENT. The city of i.nureus is not erecting a monument to the Confederate sold iers, although tin- list of names and their contributions are calculated to give that impression. The Daughters of the Confederacy undertook, about three years ago. to raise funds for the erection of a titling memorial to tin- bravery of the soldiers from Lau ren s county Who fought in defense of tho so.oh. The monument is for all the soldiers of the entire county, UOl for those who went from the city of I,auron :. Tho monument has been decided up on; the design lias been selected and ii no unforseen circumstances arise, it will be completed by September of (his year. This will doubtless be 0 pleasing message to many in tho city and county who have earnestly hoped for the success of tho undertaking. Hut, there are funds yet to be col lected. The Daughters have not a sulllctent amount to pay for the monu ment; tho remainder must be gotten somehow. How? By voluntary con tributions, \nd the point is this: the people in the city ol 1.aureus have responded liberally to the cause, while those of the county have not ye! done what they r< ally can do. and what they should do in order to make the memo rial a county-wide matter. Why should not all havi a part? Why : ??> |!OI i very hoy Hil l girl ill tile OUI'.y send in l" cents, und every mau and i woman from ?u cents lo $1.00. The (und could be raised in a week's lime by ihis method. There Is til l"nst the : um of $100 yel to ho raison. Now. what ar - the people going to do about ii? True, (hero are many in tho city who have not contributed: these are urged 10 r spend at once. And all the people in the county are earnestly reipiested lo semi in tho amounts they feel abb- to contribute ol once. Send to The Advertiser or to .Mrs. lt. H. Hell; the amounts will be published ; s ihey are received. The matter is up to tho people, will they log In Ibis, a plain duty, or will llicj re pond nobly and without delay? * ? ? Of course, since tiie legislature, in debuting the "yaller dog" question cos! the slate $2,000, will save that much or more in wise legislation on the tax question. Of course. v n * Tacked up in the street cars of Columbia. South Carolina, is this sign: ??(Jet off the oars facing forward." Since seeing this sign, wo have done our durudesl to accomplish tho feat of facing "backward", just to see how it works. t ? * To the ladies of I.aureus we hearti ly commend the menus printed in the New York Herald of last Sunday; menus that eliminate meat.

'Twns a beautiful spiel that Senator .Tohnstonc put up about Clemson col lege last week on the occasion of the legislatures visit to that institution, it was a good defense, even before Charges had been made. However. WO guess the general assembly will do well to "look into Clemson a little." ? ? ? The legislators missed the chance of their lives to see a real, live town when they passed Laurcns by. oh, well! We don't feel had about it any how, because they are visiting only the "questionable" places of the state; those that need "investigating." ? ? ?

The last lt>.,ue of The Advertiser which came to me contained the arti cle that was written while on my way down. So with the permission of the editor I shall continue from where 1 loft off. Our good ship, the Verdi, landed al Dahin the Ith of November, this being the . I'd stop since leaving New York on Octobi 20tll. It was not our in tention to go ashore there. Unt a fel low-missionary, Rev. Solomon Gins burg, knowing that we w. re nbonrd the Verdi, came to see us and insisted that we go ashore. The invitation was so cordial, and genuine thai wo could not resist. Lei me say to my friends, don t forget (Dilsburg. With hut lit tle preparation wo were soon on a small sail boat gliding across Hie hay to thi' shore. (The.v have no docks in Ilahin; so passengers are sent ashore in row and sail boats, while freight is lowed in.) We landed in what is called, the low er part of Ihe (own. Dahia being situ ated partly on a bill and partly on level ground, next the sea. I cannot nltcinpl to give a description of the sights and smells that greeted us on lauding; such things are learned only by coining in contact with them. Suf fice it io say dial we hurried through this pan of the city as quickly as pos sible and took a car which carried us in the higher part. Mr. Glnsburg tank us Into a Dubia coffee shop, where coffee is served just us soda water is served in America. I never saw s>> much confusion in one place, so much talking r.ml such bustle. Dahin is a city of sonic 1100,000 per sons and while they are modern enough to have street cars, there mo really no streets, only small passage ways among tho houses, which are huddled together in utlOl' confusion, without system or regularity. The city is not laid out at all. Very often, in some of Hie bouses Oil the streets where tin' cars run. people with their heads out of their windows have to draw them in when a car passes, to keep them from being struck. As for side-walks, they have none at all. In some places pedestrians have to keep on tin' watch lest they be caught be tween two houses by the cars. How ever, in the residence section of the city the walks are a little better. Our first meal in Drax.il was with the G!Osburgs, and although it is not po lite to tell what one "had for dinner" I am going to do so ibis time, so far as I can recall. We had beef cooked with onions, rice, feiago (which is a small black pea) loaf bread ami a des sert which closely resembles apple hotter: of course, coffee was served alter the meal. It must have been providential that WO landed first at Rahia for Rio is so far superior that, after seeing such a place as Ballla, our home will seem so much pleasanter, and it will be much easier to adapt ourselves to the place.
