Very respectfully and truly yours,
Robert Aldrich.
Governor Till1nan, in relation to Il
shove. has written the following letter:

eral-Sir: From letters in my possession,
and circumstances connected with the case,
7 am led to believe that an attempt has been
made to defraud the State Of the sum offer
ed as a reward for W. L. McFail. There is
sufficient evidence to warrant the belief that
a conspiracy was formed for this purpose
by certain parties, and that possibly the
sheriff of Barnwell Was in collusion with
them.
have had reason to think that the State
has been defrauded more than once IN this
matter of rewards, and to know that some
of our sheriffs are very derellct about max
ing arrests. desire that the present case
be thoroughly sifted, and an example made.
You will, therefore, proceed to Barnwell on
Monday morning to make thorough In
vestigation, and cause an indictment, both
for cons piracy and perjury, to be issued II
the proofs obtained will warrant It.
I have every confidence iu the solicitor OF
that circuit, but desire that you investigate
in person, and press for speedy trial II
prosecution is determined upon.
Yours respectfully,
B. r. Nllman, Governor.
According to instructions Attorney Gen
eral Pope will be in Barnwell tomorrow,
where the court of general sessions will
open in the morning. M F. T.
That is the way We like to see a
governor act, and is in perfect keep
inc with Ben Tillman's record. The
Governor is after the sheriff, too, and
if he were in any ways in colluslon
the people may rest satisfied that Of
fcially he will undergo a guillotlne
operation.

Notes ON Surveying and Construction in
the Land OF Mighty Forests.


The work of construction in this section
of country is usually let to some contractor
of ample means who takes thewhole of the
line ready for building including clearing,
grading and pile and trestle bridging. The
clearing and grading are for the most part
sub-let by him TO men of smaller means
and this subetting is frequently carried
down 10 the contracting out of even of one
or more stations of 100 feet in length This
"station" work, so called, is generally con-
fined to cases where illi has TO be made
by casting in from the sides or by the use
of wheelbarrows and where the bank is
not of great height. Heavier work
is done mainly by the use Of
Peteler cars with portable track. The
clearing and grtbbing here required is
heavy and expensive. owing to the great
size and number of the trees and the large
area covered by their roots. Ii is ousto-
mary in this country in cutting trees for
logs TO chop them off some six or eight
feet from the ground, leaving a high
stump. This is said TO be done partly
from the fact that the trees suddenly Gu
larged near the ground and partly in the
case of fir timber from the great amount OF
pitch said TO be in the butt, which renders
the chopping more difficult. As timber
becomes scarcer, however, il is believed
that the waste arising from this practice
will cause the chopping 70 be done close
10 the ground
In clearing the timber is first slashed
and then burned, the stumps generally be-
ing blasted out by dynamite If close clear
ing and grubbing is required. All this is
slow work. owing 20 the great size of the
timber. and IL the work is done in the Wet
season it is still more difficult
The contract price for clearing is about

NO MORE STEAM TRAINS.

Point Lobos Avenue to Have Cable
Line In the Near Future.
The people out in the Richmond District
are very much elated over the'recent order
of the Street Committee of the Board Of
Supervisors resembling the franchise OF
the Geary-street Railroad Company. which
permits that corporation to run steam-cars
on Point Lobos avenue from First to the
park. The fight against this particular
method of transportation commenced sew
eral years ago, aud has been waged with
considerable bite rness, the residents of
this portion of the city continually denoune-
ing the line as a menace to life and property,
ard loudly calling for its abolition.
Some time ago the Point LObos Improve
ment Society, under the progressive and in
fpential leadership Of George X. Fletcher,
took hold OF the matter. and has succeeded
in making itself heard, as the recent action
Of the Supervisors will prove The order
gives the Geary-street people ninety days in
which to take off the steam dummies. A
cable extension will, Of course, be COM
mpnced in the near future.
The members of the Point LobOS Club
expected a mandatory order, and for the
purpose of appointing street deputies to as
sSt in the work a special meeting was
called last evening. As the order gives the
company ninety days in which to remove
the tracks no such officials are needed, and
beyond indorsing the action OF the Super
YiSOIS nothing was done.
