4 Wonder.


I wonder if the Town Council could
not afford to put up few horse racks
about on the principal streets leading
into the town of Newberry, SO that We
country folks can have a hitching
place when We come to town, and not
be compelled to pay stable fee.
wonder if there has been any steps
taken by the proper authorities to
collect the bond of John p. Satter-
white. ----.. -.- ....
I wonder if our County Auditor,
who is an improvement on his pEede.
cessors, can't still improve on himself
by carefully scrutinizing all returns
made to him this year.
l wonder Why the Board Of Trus-
tees, referred to by No. 2, DO not rise
and explain their actions, or if their
silence is to be taken as al admission
of the allegations made against them.
l wonder if it is not the duty of the
School Commissioner to investigate
these charges.
I wonder if there is another such
set Of patrons to any school in our
County as the people about Smokey
Town. 1 wish they were all Of that
stamp so that our poorly paid or rather
not paid.a.-all teachers could live.
I wonder heap more things, but
will stop. - BARD TACK.

Vaccination.

To THE EDITOR OF The SUN-Sr:
As many persons, becoming alarmed
at the spread of smallpox, are think
ing of being vaccinated, I wish to ask
these question
Does vaccination secure one from
smallpox?
Are there any statistics to show
what proportion of its victims have
been vaccinsted ; if so, what are they !
Don't you think cleanliness bet
ter preventive than vaccination?
I confess I am somewhat of askep-
tic on the subject of vaccination and
although greatly respecting the medi'
cal profession, 1 await your decision,
having faith in your impartiality.
A READER.
HUDSON BEACH, N. Y, Jan. 20.
Everybody who is exposed to small.
pox infection should be vacciaated.
Vaccination is probably sure protec-
tiou against smallpox if properly re-
uewed. The protective influence
seems to become exhausted after the
lapse of many years, and the vaccina-
tion should be renewed every five or
six years. Statistics show that even
after the influence Of the vaccine has
been so far dissipsted that the patient
is liable to an attack of smallpox the
disease occurs in a mild form. Vacci-
nation is even better protection
against smallpox than smallpox itself
Tables made up of statistics gathered
from various parts Of the world show
that out of every 100 cases of small
pox occurring after vaccination the
percentage Of deaths was only 81
while out of every 100 cases Of small
pox succeeding smallpox the percen-
tage of deaths was l5.7. =:
The prejudice which some persons
entertain against vaccination perhaps
originated in the Injurious efects that
have followed the use of virus taken
from a human subject instead Of that
obtained from COW.
Cleanliness is an enemy to all
diseases, but it cannot take the place
of vaccination as a shield against
smallpox, though it will prove a
valuable auxiliary.-Ne,o York Sun.

The Election Bill.

The following are some Of the
prominent features of the new cleo
tion bill:
The Governor, on or before March
lst, every two years, appoints a
Supervisor OF Registration for each
County to attend to the registra.
ton Of voters, whose compensation
shall be $500. He may also ap'
point an assistant Supervisor to act
in case Of inability of Supervisor
and his compensation is, to be S.
per day while employed. He ap-
points also two assistant Supervi-
sors, with no pay, who sit with the
Supervisor in all cases where he
refuses to register the applicant.
In the months of May and
June next, after three weeks
notice in the newspapers, the
Supervisor opens his registration
book; it is kept open not less
than one nor more than three days
at each precinct. He then opens
his books at the Court House for
correcting errors and for register
ing those not already registered
from the different precincts. The
law allows the Supervisor, upon
such evidence as he may think me-
cessary, in his discretion" to regis
ter the name of any qualified voter
who has failed to register.
For every election year after the
next election the Supervisor opens
his books the first Monday in each
month until July, inclusive, to allow
the registration OF such persons as
shall have become entitled to regis
ter since the general registration.
The applicant for registration is
required to make oath before the
Supervisor as to his age, occupa-
ton, place Of residence, and dura-
tion of residence in the County and
State, all which is recorded in the
Registration Book.
The Supervisor determines the
qualification OF applicants by "oath'
evidence, or both" subject to reyi-
sion by himself and the assistant
Supervisors, and subject to review
by the Circuit Court on appeal and
case made up by rejected applicant.
A voter must vote in the precinct
in which he is registered if he
changes his residence be can sur
render his certificate and get from
the Supervisor certificate that
will entitle him TO vote in the pre-
cinct to which he moves.
The Ballots shall be white paper
81 by 5 inches, without ornament
or mark of any kind except the
names voted for and the offices.
There shall be eight boxes l.

The Roads.

For about three months Of every
year the roads are in condition
that renders travel q very disagree
able and laborious performance.
And this happens at time when
farmers are obliged to do q good
deal of hauling, in bringing their
cotton to market and in carrying
guano and groceries home. Just
at this time the roads in many sec
tions are so deep in mud that an
empty wagon is pretty heavy load
for a four-m team. Besides this,
people in the country are debarred
to a considerable extent from at
tending church and visiting each
other and are thus cut of from
many pleasures and benefits to be
derived from religious and social
privileges. Bad roads are a curse
to a country in many ways. Judge
Mackey says that the public roads
afford the best index to the ci7iliza-
ton of a people. If this be so we
are not many stages removed from
the heathen.
We do not refer to this County
alone our remarks apply to the
whole State. It seems to US that
some provision might be made to
keep the roads in better condition.
The present plan of woodworking
is open to many objections, which
are so apparent that we do not deem
it necessary to name them. 1t has
been suggested to us that a better
plan would be to impose a road tax,
to be placed in the hands of q COM
petent oyerseer who will hire hands
and work the roads by contracts.
The gentleman who suggests this
plan thinks that q tax of seventy
FIVE cents or one dollar upon those
liable for road duty would be amply
sufficient to put and keep the roads
in good repair.
Another plan that suggests itself
is that petty criminals be put to
work on the roads. Instead Of ly'
ing in jail at the expense of the
public for ten, twenty or thirty days,
they should be made to work that
time on the roads. The punish
ment would thus be less expensive
and, no doubt, more eficacious.

about" This made the Colleton
Senator mad, and he insisted that
the language be withdrawn, which

seeming imminent, Senator Izlar,
of Orangeburg, and Representative
McCrady, of Charleston, made afh-
davits before a Trial Justice, and
the parties we're summoned to ap-
pear ard give bond to keep the
peace. Thinking the difficulty
could be settled the persons making
the afidavits withdrew them. But
they failed to make 8 settlement {;
and MIR. L. T. Levin, Jr., made an
other affidavit, and Tuesday the
two Senators were required to give
bond to keep the peace. Senator
Fishburne refused to give bond,
and was committed to jail.
