LUMBER CO. MAY NOT REBUILD. Or at Least One Mill Will Replace tbe Two Recently Burned. All over this section of the eoun- I try the fight is on in the case of the timber contracts that are held by the Atlantic Coast Lumber company, and the situation in wnicn me company finds itself placed is supposed to be having a great deal to do with the proposition for the rebuilding of the burned plant at Georgetown. It is understood that there are a great many cases in Marion, Williamsburg and other counties against the i company based on the decision that i they must cut the timber on the land within a reasonable time or forfeit the timber right- that they bought i some years, ago. One of these cases has gone to the ' supreme court on a ruling by Judge; DeVore that set twelve years as a 1 reasonable time for them to start cutting the timber. This has not yet < been decided in that tribunal and its j] decision will make a gieat deal cf 1 difference with the big lumber con- i cern that is now holding the timber ! i rights. j 1 A new case has been started up in Williamsburg county that starts the j fight from another angle, in the case ! ] of one party who thought he had waited long enough for the lumber ] company to start work and who put ' a saw-mill on the land and bej?an to j i cut the timber himself. The lumber i: company asks Judge Shippfor an in- < junction to stop him. The case was'1 argued yesterday, Mr P H Arrowsmith of Lake City representing the party who owned the land and who < set up the saw-mill on it, and Mr A C Hinds of Kingstree tne lumber company. ? : In the matter of the rebuilding of the plant a meeting of the lumber company was held Monday to decide1 what to do and adjourned without anything being given out in the matter. The president. Mr R J Clifford, went to New York and was to ( have returned today to Georgetown,! when the decision as to the rebuilding will probably be made public. It was understood in Georgetown that the company would probably put their plant back in one mill that would have the capacity of the two mills that were burned. If the rulings of the courts are against the company, however, it is thought not likely that the company . will immediately reinvest.?Florence Times. Will Clarendon Lose Territory? The project of cutting off about 30 square miles of Clarendon's ter-! ritory from the Workman section, according to information given us last Friday, has been renewed, and that the petition has been forwarded to the Governor for an election to go into Williamsburg county. As we understand it, the dissatisfaction arises out of the school district management, and after several attempts to get the county board to satisfy a portion of the patrons of the district,! and failing to get the relief they de- j wr\A fUai? Uoim tr\ Put I 911 CU, Vlicj nave uebvi uuiivvt wv VMVI off from the county and go into the! adjoining county. It seems to us they could arrange to form a school district with much better results and not disrupt the county formation. However, they know the conditions better than we do and are in a better position to know what to do; we dislike to have any portion of the county disrupted, and especially are ] we loath to part with the good people of that section. If we could, we 1 should try to dissuade them from ; their purpose, but if they are deter? 1 X 1 _ CC a,*,a*a I . minea to cut UU,S1UCV Hie) aic anatt i that it does not release them from the bonded obligations of the county, there is no helping it. We have also information that there has been 1 a movement renewed to make Olanta 1 a county seat. It is contemplated ] to take from Clarendon the entire 3 Salem section, making Black river ' the line,and taking a portion of Flor- ! v-ence county,and if this does not give i the necessary area, then take the rest 1 from Williamsburg. It would be in- ' deed unfortunate to have to lose so J much territory from this county and 1 we sincerely hope that it will not be 1 done. But there is no telling what 1 will be done when the effort is made by those who have a pecuniary in- , terest in making the town of Olanta a county seat.?Manning Times, ; Lines from Leo.

He will go go to Augusta, Ga, and then come hack to Aiken to attend the Grand Lodge, K of P, meeting. The dry weather has been broxen bv light showers but not quite enough to bring up the cotton. Many acres are not yet up and are not likely to come up until it rains. lhere was no preaching at Prospect church Sunday on account of the commencement sermon at JohnBonville, preached by l)r E 0 Watson of Conway.

Do not turn the work horses and mules on grass on Sunday and keep them on dry feed all the rest of the week. The grass may do them a positive injury. If Monday is hot and the work is hard, the horse or mule that had grass on Sunday will not only be unable' to do as much work, but will run a much greater risk of suffering from colic and being "over-heated."?
