W. D. WOODS, Editor.
DAltLlNGTON, 8. C.
Wednesday, April 29, 1891.
The Freeman is very unhappy be-
, cause Sumter has no canning factory.
If the editor/rf that paper will visit
his okl homedn a short while from
now, he can .see, a factory in opera
tion, and will be allowed to carry off
u few cans as a memento of his visit.
We take thediberty of suggesting
to the Pee Dec Argus that Sumter
has no special interest in the exten
sion of the C. S. & N. Railroad, and
„ of course cannot reasonably be ex
pected to take part in the celebrating
the completion of this extension. . If
there is anything done in this way,
then DarUngton and Beunettsville
are ,the .places interested, and ought
to look after the matter. Surely the
people of Beunettsville should feel
like celebrating their commercial
annexation to the balance of the
State.
AMERICAN CLAIMANTS TO ENG
LISH ESTATES.
A good many papers, whose editors
ought to know better, are publishing
accounts of the inheritance of an
immense fortune in England, by a
Georgia farmer by the name of Drake,
i This does very well for a sensational
item, but unfortunately for the
truth of it, an alien is not allowed to
inherit real estate in Great Britian,
and then too the officials of the Bank
of England have announces time and
again that they are not the trustees
or guardians of such estates. It is
true that there is a considerable
amount of money in the custody of
the bank that is unclaimed, but it
was placed there by a large number
of individual depositors, and no large
amount by any one person. Lead
ing lawyers both in this country and
Englaug have repeatedly warned peo
ple from spending money in trying
to secure fortunes that only exist in
the immagination of a few lawyers
who are either ignorant or unscrupu
lous.
NO THIRD PARTY.
The very strenuous efforst made by
some of the Western Alliance, to
draw the Southern farmers into a
third party movement, will hardly ■
Ujcct with much success, unless our,
people are endowed with a much j
‘smaller degree of common sense
than we give them credit for.
Whatever of
the Southern planter has to redress
( can l>e best brought about through
the agency of the Democratic party,
. and every suggestion, looking to his
abandonment of a party to which he
owes so much, should be met with
a prompt and emphatic refusal. All
true patriots will gladly hail the day
when sectional animosity shall be!
entirely put aside, and all sections of
the country unite in doing everything
calculated to build up the prosperity
of this great Nation; but the time
the stagnant water that is left after
the water recedes in the run of the
stream, and the action of the Sun on
the water and decaying vegetation.
There are a grrat many places in the
swamp that hold water and are not
connected with the stream at all.
It is very far from our intention
to make the impression that thyre is
a great amoijnt of sickness from this
cause, but that it is responsible for
all the malarial complaints from
which onf people guffcri lie one will
deny; and if this be true, then it is
certainly the part of wisdom to reme
dy it, provided, which is very pro
bably the case, it can be done for an
outlay that the town can afford, and
be kept in order by the expenditure
of a few hundred dollars each year.
It would be a great thing to be able
to say that Darlington was entirely
fiee from malaria; but leaving out
the question of health, it would be
no small factor in the growth and
development of the town, and it is
very probable that the place would,
in the event of this work being done,
■become something of a health resort.
A preliminary survey would cost
very little, and we take the liberty of
suggesting to the council that they
lood into the matter and ascertain
deffinitely as to its practicability and
the probable cost of the work. We
believe in economy, and would oppose
any ill advised measure that would
burden the town with debt, but this
work will be in the direction of true
economy, and our present authorities
could hardly hit upon any improve
ment where they would be so gener
ally sustained by the public.
