Just before the bride entered little Misses Anna Dean West, of Belton, Lucia Gillebeau, of Abbeville, Margie and Katherine Gibert, of Abbeville, scattered rose petals from dainty pink baskets on the bride's pathway.

Revision of Our Road and Tax Laws Advocated. Editor County Record:? Will you allow me a little discussion of some of our unjust laws as they now exist? The first is our road law. As it is now, we each pay $2 road tax. We take it that the man who owns 10 head of horses and i mules and has this team on the roads the year round pays but $2 per annum.and the man who only walks ; the road pays equally with the stock owner who cuts the road to pieces. I Is this just? No. Let those horses, mules and vehicles be taxed for road : purposes and then all men pay their I $2 road tax. Let every man carry j his equal share of road tax. The ' mrv mn rnnt of taxation in this State is unequal. Suppose two citizens of our county, we will say Mr A and Mr B, have each $5,000 to invest. Mr A puts his into real estate and Mr B loans his out and takes security for his 8% interest. He gets $400 interest and pays no taxes whatever. Mr A's land has to go on the tax books and costs him $100 taxes at least the first year. Whyshould Mr B be liable for taxes just the same as Mr A? Some one will say that the party that borrowed this money pays the tax on the land over which Mr B holds papers, but who pays the tax on that money ? ' *- \r_ t> j?unn ? | irom wnicn ;vjr r> is urawmg *>iw a year interest? The State and county are drawing taxes from Mr A's land but not a penny from MrB's capital that is loaned out. It's unjust. If our peopie could see how much property in our State is hid from taxation it would open their eyes. You know that the one-horse man carries the burden of taxes and the J money-lender has the longest end of the pole. Our people are going to see this. Vote for and send men to make your laws that will so regulate the tax statute of South Carolina as to make every man. rich or poor. J carry his share of the burden of our government. Also our laws as to the prohibition ot the sale of blind tiger whisky should be amended so as to make 1 11.. ,?;tU me purenasei , fqutiii* ^um,^ mm the seller, because the buyer is the one who makes the disturbance with the whisky, and not the seller. Why should the law allow me to persuade my neighbor to break the law? When this is done it will have its effect on the illegal sale of whisky in our State. W S Camll.\. j Andrews, July 15.
