ANDREWS NEWS NOTES. New Road Granted?Industrial and Social Development. Andrews,March 2<h?A delegation front Andrews and Trio visited the county seat Wednesday, the loth inst. in the interest of the public yoad running' from Trio to Andrews. V^>Ye are glad that our road was granted without opposition. Now, it's up to our competent Road Engineer to assist us with the bridge across Johnson swamp, which we believe he will do; for we expect settlers enough to be domiciled on this - - J 1 ?! > Cn./vlino I <jnH it' TV vol roau uy mr vm uima u?><u ? opment Co to re-imburse the county in taxes within two years for every dollar spent on our bridge now. Once we get our vacant lands in the lower edge of Williamsburg settled, we have as fine a garden spot as the State affords; but we need the settlers. Our people are doing all possible to develop their property; we merely ask the county to build this bridge. We will build the road out of our own pockets. There will be 35 to 40 miles of road graded and made into an up-to-date highway, and there will be 50 to 100 families settled in this section between Andrews and Trio, along the line of the G & W railroad. Court convened in Georgetown today with several murder cases on the docket, but no one will pay the death penalty, for jurors are too sympathetic and the would-be murderers know it. i have been informed that Mr J J Marshall,of the Trio section.will in a few days move to our town and cact his l??t with us. Mr Marshall has bought the house anil lot formerly owned by Mr J W Poston, on Main street, and will move thereto wiimn a few days. Come in. boys, there is still room to spare. Mr W T Evans.of the Trio section, is now living in town and has associated himself with the firm of Feagl.n & Marshall. Sl'BSCRlBKR. Chamberlain's Never fails. Buy it new. It uily save iiic. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the .WN last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure it with local treatment.pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F J Cheney & Co.Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teatnnonfui. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address: F J CHENEY & CO.

Last Monday the first match game was played by the fresh" man and the sub-freshman teams. The score was 20 to 23 in favor of the sub-freshmen. The specials are going to play the sub-freshmen next .Monday. Much class spirit is manifested during this season; we "keep y our colors flying." The building of the new training school will be begun in a few weeks. The number of teachers that will be necessary and the site for the building are being: decided upon, and architects are working on the plan of the building. Preparations are being made for the State summer school which is to held at Winthrop beginning June 27 and continuing four weeks. This is planned to be the best summer school ever held at Winthrop. Last Monday night the Chicago Glee club gave a very interesting entertainment in the auditorium. The programme consisted of quartettes, trombone selections and impersonations. Two of their old select ions which wi re very effectively rendered were: "Do they miss meat home?" and Tennyson's "Crossing the bar." EG H. IMPORTANCE OF GOOD ROADS. Road Engineer's Efforts Should i Be Backed by United Support. Editor County Record: ? "A I'loa for Bettor Roads", published in last week's issue of The Record, is the First public expression from our Road Engineer since he assumed his official duties for the county. His plea is . uggestive and; , thoughtful anil shows a deep interest i'n me work- Ft has been mv privilege i to visit the chaingang force at work i on more than one occasion recently,' ; and I was agreeably surprised to see i the splendid management as evidenced under the new organization. Although Mr Stuckey and his assistants have had but a short time to become acquainted with the work, they seem to have started right, and already things are moving along in harmony.the convicts working steadily and with a vim which can only be maintained under good and strict discipline. Results under these conditions will be marked, and with increased experience and longer service, the efficiency of the supervision will become better and more satisfactory. The Engineer has done well to secure the Government expert who will build specimen sections and demonstrate the manner of building. I suggest that it would be the proper thing to welcome his coming with a county rally on the day of his arrival.thus showing our interest and at the same time inspiring him to put forth his best efforts and influencing him. if possible, to remain with us just as long as he can, As sueffested. everv town should ijiutizcbut the rally of welcome should be a perioral mass-meeting anil invite whomsoever will,to come, under the auspices of the county! organization. i The interests of our people in: pood roads should be centralized in i a peneral and well organized movement for the betterment of our public highways, and as one who appreciates any effort to this end, I trust that the county Kngineer will receive the united support of our people along any lir.e which means improvement.

B TRULY A HORRIBLE I STATE OF THINGSj IF A CORRUPT REPUBLICAN SENATOR CAN BE SEATED BY DEMOCRATIC VOTES. I The term of Senator Hopkins of1 Illinois was about to expire; and the people of Illinois determined to express a preference as between the red-headed Hopkins and the rival candidate. In this primary the people pave Hopkins a majority, thus instructing the Legislature to re-elect him for another term. In other words, Democracy demanded the re-election of Hopkins to the United States Senate. ; But when the Legislature con- j vened, subtle and tremendous influences were felt to be at work, to thwart the will of the people, as expressed in the primary. These subtle and tremendous influences were felt to be tugging, might and main, for the election of William Lorimer, who, as a member of Congress, had been a most devoted slave of the Beef Trust, the Lumber Trust, the | Steel Trust, the Standard Oil Trust, the Sugar Trust,the Tobacco Trust? and every other wicked and ruthless 1 combination of capital. There ensued a prolonged battle j in the Illinois legislature. To the I amazement of the country, it developed that the Democratic Boss of Illinois, Lee O'Neill Browne, wast was working most energetically for) Lorimer,the Republican, and against Lorimer's Democratic opponent! The sworn testimony at the Con-; gressional investigation disclosed the fact that one Browne boasted?j with coarse cynicism - of having $35,000 in a blue belt around his; waist, which was to be used in con-; trolling votes. Seven members of; the Legislature confessed to having been bribed; and stated the tone, place, amount, together with the names of the bribe-givers. t Entries! in bank-books and the sworn testi- j mony of bank-officials corroborated I these confessions. Not only this, but there was! overwhelming evidence that the! members of the Legislature whose 1 I votes Browne owned, were paid to vote for Lorimer. There were between thirty and forty of these Democratic, Browne-owned Legislators. They held two meetings in St Louis, one after Lorimer's election, on/1 Ann Af flip former. 1 OilU VIIV UVAV4 V. ? ? they were each paid $1,000 from ? the Lorimer "Jack-pot; " at the latter, $900 each. Therefore, (as the evidence taken by Senatorial committee proved) at least thirty members of the Democratic contingent in the Legislature were paid $1,900 each for their Lorimer votes, not counting the seven who had to be paid special prices. Yet Senators Bailey. Fletcher, Bankhead, Johnstone, Tillman, Simmons, Smith, Watson (of West Virginia), voted in favor of Lorimer's retention of his seat, upon the ground that the seven votes which were bought at sjiecial rates, were! not indispensable to Lorimer's ; election! The verdict of the jury of twelve is set aside, if it be shown that one juror was corrupted. A title to land is voided, if it be shown that one part of the consideration was fraudulent. In the British Parliament, a member's seat is declared vacant, if it: be proved that one vote, in the election, was corrupt. Yet, here we have the Southern Democratic Senators voting shamelesslv for a man whose record reeks with infamy, and whose majority in in the Illinois Legislature is confessedly tainted with the most flamboyant bribe-giving. The Democratic Senators from the ! South defeated the efforts of such Republicans as Beveridge and LaFoliette to turn a Republican rascal out.
