Cling daubs Of slime remain to tell
one where they were. Catfish. ee.s and
tadpoles are running all over the
country with tin cups in their mouths
asking everybody they meet to give
them drink of water. Brook trout
wallow in the dust Of country roads
like quails, and black bass are caught
like gopbers, with spade. Chantie-
leer's matin hymn sounds as If it
were piped through the thigh bone of
5000 years shrivelled mummy Of
the Pbaraohs. and the fluttering of
wings resembles the clashing togeth-
er of charred saddle flaps.
Reader or readers, if it is so hot in
this beautiful world of lakes, rivers
and cascades. of cloud-wreathed
peaks and misty wales, Of oceans, rlv-
ulets, rills, soda pops and juleps,
think what it must be in that politi-
clans realm where the roasted mil
lionaire's incarnation of selfishness
and greed begs. through all Of eterni-
tvs countless ages, for one drop Of
water from dog-licked beggar's fL-
ger tip! Think Of it, and flee to the
glorious, wind swept, lake gemmed
summerland Of Dakota, where every
body is still wearing Winter fannels
and sleeping under blankets and buf-
falo robes. p. DOMAIN.

The Jacksonville Way.
HOW \ FLORIDA EDITOR HANDLES PAS.
SENGER AGENTS.

The New Orleans Times-Democr0t
publishes the following:
A few days ago large number Of
railway passenger agents were con-
gregated at Jacksonville, Fla, en-
deayoring to secure business for their
respective roads, as the travel Of
Northern tourists happened to be
very large that Winter. While the
passenger agents were infesting the
hotels and making things lively, and
having a jolly time among them
selves, the editor of one Of the Jack
sonville papers came out in an edi-
torial and called the passenger agents
body.snatchers, and declared that
they were . nuisance, and stated in
positive terms that they should be
kept away from the depots by the
police. The article aroused the ire
Of the passenger men, and they held
a meeting at hotel to devise ways
and means to be avenged.
Reau Campbell offered q motion,
which was adopted, to appoint COM
miltee to be called the rctractlcn
committee, who should call on the
editor and compel him to apologize.
Mr.. Campbell, SO the joke goes, was
made chairman Of the committee,
and in company with several others
started in search OF the office of the
elusive paper pap A fteE -soms-dlft
ty the Office was found, and ascend
ing a couple Of flights Of dark
rickety stairs Mr.. Campbell and his
committee entered a room and dis
covered a thin, consumptivc looking
little man seated at pine table,
writing by the light Of dirty tallow
candle.
Are you the editor and RESPONSE
bic man of this paper ?" said Camp
bell, becoming very bold as he noted
the fact that the editor was very di'
minutive man.
Yes, sir, I'm the editor and re-
sponsib!e man
We'll: sir, did you write this out
rageous article p thundered Camp
bell as he put on look Of terrible
rage.
"Yes, wrote that article calmly
replied the small editor.
Then, sir, we demand that you
apologize and retract what you have
said instantly said Campbell in a
laundering manner.
i never apologize" replied the ed
itor, land | want you to get out OF
here in d--n quick styie;;' and he
pulled out of a drawer in the table
before him six shooter as long as a
cornstalk and covered the crowd with |
it. Colonel Bob Garratt, who was
there to render moral support to the
committee, says he reached the bot
tom of the stairs fist. with the rest
of the committee galloping close at
his heels.
When the committee reached the |
hotel the other passenger agents
were anxious to know what success
they had met with. Mr.. Campbell,
after calming himself, explained that
the intention was laudable, but owing
to circumstances the execution was
faulty. lie also remarked that his
friends would have to wait till sh.ol
was frozen over before he would con.
sent to serve on retraction com.
mittee again.
Colonel Garratt says the next
morning the editor came out in his
paper and ripped the boys up the
back, but no one cared to call his at
ton to the matter.

The Industrial Progress of a
Week.

The last week Of July shows that.
despite warm weather, the South
keeps steadily on in her industrial
growth. The list Of new enterprises
organized in the South during the
past week, as published in the Balti-
more ManuJucturers Record Of Aug.
l. exhibits wide diversity Of indus
tries, and indicates that while the in.
dustrial growth of the South is very
rapid, it is healthy growth, as it is
not confined to any one line Of man.
ufacturing, but includes a large nun
Der of diversified enterprises There
is also more activity in railroad in
terests than for some time, while new
roads are being organized and old
ones improved and extended, giving
evidence of the returning confidence
with which capitalists regard the in
vestment Of money in Southern rail
road property. Ofnew manufacturing
enterprises reported for the week, we
note a S125,000 company to make
iron and steel in AIabams; the pur-
chase Of material for the erection Of
an iron furnace in Tennessee; the re-
sumption Of work by large rolling
mill in the same State that has long
been idle; contract for the building
of railroad machine shops in Bir-
mingham; a $4,000 wagon and plow
factory near Atlanta; u S50,0O0 plow
factory company at Louisville; ma
chine shops at Dayton, Tenn, Eas-
ton, Md, Kissimmee, Fla, and El-
berton, Ga; at Vicksburg, Miss, the
proposition regarding the building Of
large railroad shops there has been
accepted; at Lexington, Ky, 4 hard
ware manufacturing company have
increased Their capital $4,000 to
enlarge their facilities; at Sheffield,
Ala, a new pressed brick company is
about starting; Dallas, Tex, is to
have q shot factory to cost about
$4,000; at Meridian, Miss, ground
has been secured for fertilizer fac
tory; canning factory is getting
under way at Thomasville, n. c., and
another at Maryville, Tenn; cotton
seed oil mills are building at Mitchell
Station, Ala, and Lafayette, La;
company to build one at Waynesbcro,
Ga, has just organized, while there is
a prospect for one at Louisberg, n.
c., and at Franklinton, in the same
State; several cotton mills are IN.
creasing their machinery, and the
stockholders Of another will probably
decide to do likewise, while com
pany is being worked up to build a
new mill; s1,OO0,O00 electric light
company has been organizedin in Wash
ington; at Lambert's Point and Cape
Charles City, Va. extensive improve
ments are to be made in the way of
additional piers, canning factories,
&c. Of saw mills, -four mills, gin
neries, planning mills, &C.. there is, as
usual, quite large number. On the
the whole the list Of new enterprises
for the week is cminently satisfactory,
and is suggestive Of still greater ac-
tivity throughout the Southern States
as soon as the cotton crop commences
to move to market. The indications for
large cotton and corn crops are still
very favorable, and the prospects for
business Of all kinds good.

perintendents Of Highways will do
more to improve our public roads
than ANYTHING that can be done at
this time. 1t is too often the case
that County Commissioners fail to
enforce the law because they are
afraid that they would lose some
votes at the next election. AS 4 gen.
eral rule the law would be enforced
more strictly if the office Of County
Commissioner was an appolntlve one
and not an elective one. But Ander-
son County will not suffer in this re-
spcct from our present Board OF
County Commissioners, for they are
all fearless men in discharging what
they deem to be duty. They have
had an abstract of the road law pub
lished and sent to each Superinten-
dent of Highways in the County, and
several copies for general distribu
ton. in order that the people might
be more generally Informed as to
what is required. So those neglect
ING their duties in this respect may
anticipate, as far as the County Com
missioners can do so, TO see the law
enforced.
We think the road law of this
State is deficient in some respects
and should be amended, but we
think only by the enforcement Of the
law rs it stands now, can the roads |
be improved until better system is
devised.
The road law requires that all
roads shall be twenty feet wide, ex-
cept those leading to Charleston.
Georgetown. Columbia, Hamburg or
Cheraw, which are to be thirty feet
wide. In great many places in the
County the roads are not ten feet
wide, caused by the farmers plough !
ing into the roads. This matter has
been presented by the Grand Jury
of the County. and should have the
attention it deserves. In working
the roads. the Overseers should work
them the width they were laid of, no
matter i 1t destroys the corn and
cotton OF some private individual,
for he had no right to cultivate the
public roads; and if necessary to
preven, such trespasses on the public
roads. let the Commissioners prose-
cute some Of the trespassers for OBJ
structing the public Highways.

The Public Roads.
Anderson Intelligcncer.

The annual time for working the
public roads has arrived. The road
law requires the Surperintendents OF
the Highways to appoint the Over
seers in his Highway District, and to
assign them hands. The Overseers
are required to have the hands
warned to work the roads, giving
them twelve hours notice Of the time
and place of working, and the KIND
of tool each shall bring.
All our citizens should pc IN
terested in the public ROADS OF the
County. If the law is complied with
as it should be great improvements
will be made in the roads, but we are
sorry to notice that too frequently
the law is evaded. While a great
man. Ovtrseers try to do their duty
faithfully, others are satisfied to call
out their hands and to throw up q
little fresh dirt into the middle of
the road in places, and seem to try
to see how soon they can march their
hands with theil tools on their shoul-
ders from one end Of their section to
the other, unless the superintendent
of the Highways designates the num-
Der of days to be worked, and then
to see how little can be done in that
time. We have noticed instances of
this kind in the past, but hope that
we have 10 Overseers now but faith
ful ones. superintendent Of the
Highways should see to it that the
roads in their Districts are properly
worked. Where all Superintendent,
Overseers and hands do not faith
fully discharge their road duty, the
burden falls unequally upon the cit
liens. One Overseer may do five
DAYS work on his section of the road,
and another Overseer not SO con"
scientious may only DO one or two
DAYS work on his section. although
needing work just as badly. So it
is important that Superintendent of
the Highways should look closely
after this matter.
The road law imposes penalties for
it's violation, yet it is very seldom
that one is punished for its violation.
