The Road Law.

A mistake was made in the publication
of the road law last week. Sections 1885
to 1904 of the General Statutes are cor
rect and applicable to Oconee county.
But the ten sections, under the caption
''The New Road Law" constitute spe-
cial statute regulating the working of
roads in Newberry, Abbeville and some
other couuties. 1t has no application in
Oconee county.
We would call attention again to the
exemptions from road duty. None but
teachers and students of schools and col
leges and ministers, who are serving a
congregation as pastor, are exempt.
Some think that school trustees are ex-
empt, but they are not.
In Oconee commutation tax of four
dollars is allowed, provided it is paid
between the first days of January and
March in each year.
We regret the mistake made in the
publication last week. 1t was done mad
vertently by cutting same from one Of
our exchanges. Our County Commis-
sioners did not request the publication of
the Act, but had simply requested US in
a general way to publish the road law
as applicable to Oconee county. The
mistake was ours and we take this, the
first, opportunity of correcting it.

Not Our Fault.

Under the above heading an exchange
has the following to say, and we endorse
every word of it and hope our readers
will profit by it and send US in the news
if they have any:
"a local newspaper is often accused OF
bias in regard to giving personal notices,
commenting on the coming and going OF
some and omitting others. The accusa-
ton is very wrong and unjust. 1t is with
the people and not the editor. He is
always willing and even anxious to tell
who comes and goes, if he can find out
but country paper cannot afford &c
have a score of salaried reporters. Il
YOU have visitors, let US know who they
are and where they came from; if any
thing happens in your community, let us
know all about it; if you know anything
ten us all about it. You will find Us as
ready to notice one as another, patron OF
otherwise, friend or foe
