put statesmen in power, and then we
may look tor q return TO she true
principles of Republican government,
q removal of great and pressing evils,
and successful solution Of those great
questions and problems of government
to wh:eh the changes which have
taken place in the country since the
foundation Of the government have
given rise. ..,.. ,.>............ ...... .., s.
But however deep and abiding may
he the interest which the people of
this county take in these matters, there
is another matter In which they are
at this time more deeply and vitality
interested, and upon the satisfactory
settlement Of which their present and
future welfare and prosperity largely
depend. ~,
need not say that I allude now to
the unfortunate railroad ombroglio
with the Air Line in which the Coun~
ty is involved. The length of this
letter will admit only of a bare alIu-
sion to this grave and important mat
ter to our people at the present. /
propose to devote letter to it's oon>
sideration at an early day, in which I
shall present my views in regard to it
to the public.
In the mean timo, let us remember
that overy days delay of the final
settlement Of the question whether
Pickens County is liable for and will
have those bonds to pay, with interest
thereon, is entaiing q heavy loss on
the County in many ways. The sun-
certainty which hangs over the future
financial condition of the Country de-
preciates real estate, restraints enters
prise and cripples every Industry and
interest. To remain in this condition
much longer will be worse than to
have tho full debt to provide for, and
have things reduced to certainty,
that taxpayers may know what to
depend on.
This railroad dobt question settled,
this would he one of tho most desir-
able and prosperous counties in the
State. But with this milestone of
contingent debt hanging around her
neck, sho cannot have decent public
roads, her people are depressed and
seem to be paralized with q fearful
dread Of the future. Is there no way
to shake off this dreadful financial
nightmare! Let us consider and see.
My readers may rest assured that I
shall handle the subject frankly and
fearlessly. PIEDMONT.
