The Advantages of a Railroad.
i i I
i
We take pleasure and this oppor- J
unity in saying to the people through j
'ho.se lands the railroad will pass <
rotn Neal Shoals, on Broad river to
inion, that the advantages they will
njoy and fully realize are incalcula- I
lo. It is the history of every coun- |
ry through which railroad lines aro
uilt, tho value of the lands are enanced
from lifty to one hundred per
ent The facilities of transports- i
ion aro so much greater, a saving to
arm stock, wagons and all other voicles;
the opening of a market for '
11 sorts of farm products, that otherwise
inigfit he lost; the encouragefieut
to the farmers to diversify their
rops so as to meet the increased douands
of an increasing population,
ecauso railroads always bring in .
uore people. People naturally preer
to own property and Uvo near a
ailrond,?t least, all those who know
nd appjp^iate the advantages furlished
bjt*railroad facilities.
In M>-r'yfcoroV Marion, Darlington,
iMorouce and "several other counties
n the lower part of this State, since
he building of .the several railroads
rithiu the past ten'ypjirs, lands that
ould havo been bDughVfbr-.fd.OO per icre,
now sell all the way from $."> to
iii.) p? acre.-.Cfcttdn, tobacco and
ruck farming%ar^o*ow' the growing,^
ndustrlos of thnfa^sectjon, whereas,
>efore the railrb^^canie nothing but I
:otton and corn'were'grown.
The people need ndjrfear any damige
which fhight acorue from 4ihe de- ]
itructiou of growing crops durin
sonstruction of the railroad, because
ihe. railroad will enter into a contruct
?nd give bonds of indemnity?to pay
ill damages done. The assessed
lamages frequently amount to more
than the farmer would realize if the
srops were fully harvested and sold.
The land owner need have no fears
that a railroad company has any advantages
over those guaranteed under
the law to the land owner. Taking
all things into consideration the
Mild owner has better protection under
the law, than that vouched safe
fa) the railroad company. All persons
who do not do what they can to
secure a railroad through the section
in which they live are simply standing
in their own light. We would
prefer to give the right of way rather
than miss getting a railroad, for in
the end the land owner is benefitted,
^ the botfvweefiTs are increasing'and heJ
ceroiusr more destructive in tJuf eouthana
me one Who fti,.-'
B railroad run through his land, or puts
I the price out of reason and reach ii
[ the one who kills the goose that lays
i the golden egg We are satisfied thai
t there sire no s.uch short sighted farm
ors in this section o'f Union county.
Wo are not talkiug from a selfish
point of view, while we do know that
whatever benefits the country will
also benefit tha ***??? ti? -.1? *

l>ay u very large per cent, of our state
Kami county taxes, therefore, the more
frail roads we have, It most naturally
H follows that In a very few years the
jftiypiers will have to pay less taxes.
I The advantage of having competing
mm of railroad reduces the freight
ratft on all goods sljjjfpped over these
lines; the farme^jf^le the advantage
and benefit of thistSeduction in freight

In oomparison the cheaper
hejian afford to flMtif gpods, as 5 it
is Well known tJmFWtfc consumer al'
ways pays the TaqfY.Vn-.all he eats
and wears. ?QL*
We hope the^jeopie will wake up
to the impor|^nae of aiding every
railroad enterprfle and thus contribute
to the rapid upbuilding of our
county, and fnake this the most prosperous
and independent county in
the world.

relish for food, new strength, result.from its use.
Do not confuse Cod-Wine with the preparations styling themselves
Wine of Cod Liver Oil, and products under similar names,
many of them are thick, cloudy looking liquids, in which the essentials
of Cod Liver Oil are poorlyV extracted, containing much
that is absolutely harmful arid useless. Avoid those that contain
a sediment of coffee grounds at the bottom of the bottle.
