At different times lately, we have
heard different prominent local busi-
ness men declare that they have not
made dollar for several years. Crops
have been good, there has been no
period of famine, there are hundreds
and thousands of men everywhere who
are anxious to work and make some
thing. 1t looks as if these include all
the conditions that are necessary to
prosperity. Then what is the trouble ?
Surely it can be through no fault of
the people. We believe it is due al
most if not entirely to our badly run
down financial system. If this is not
the trouble, we would be glad to have
somebody point it out to US. Wereal-
ly would. Think about it.

A NEW CATTLE PEST.

The buffalo fly, long known in the
low country as an aggravating cattle
pest, has lately made its appearance
in this section, and has been reported
to us from different quarters. 1t is
described as looking very much like
the ordinary house fly; but is rather
more energetic and spiteful in its
movements. 1t hangs about individu-
al cattle in great swarms, or punches,
and when alarmed, takes short quick
flights like droves of black birds. At
night it settles about the horns of the
cattle and continues its annoyance
perpetually. Its effect on the cattle
is most distressing. Lean COWS are
prevented from improving in condi-
ton and fat ones are quickly made
gaunt and poor. AS yet we have
learned of no specific for the pest.

SOME QUESTIONS.

Representative r. NJ. Carroll was in
Yorkville last Monday with pocket
full of questions for the constitution
al convention candidates; but owing
to the fact that the speaking was post
poned, he did not have an opportuni-
ty to fire them off. At the request of
the reporter, he gave them to The
ENQUIRER for publication. They are
as follows:
Are you in favor of the homestead
law as it stands?
Are you in favor of the constitution
al two mill tax for school purposes?
Are you in favor of the formation OF
new counties with less area than 625
square miles, as at present required ?
Are you in favor of a restricted suf-
frage. If so, by what method?
Are you in favor of granting the
right of franchise to females over 81
years of age, who pay tax on $500
worth of property?

YORKVILLE, S. c.:
WEDNESDAY, JULY II, 1895.

Some dissatisfaction is being ex-
pressed by some of the politicians,
with the rule that requires Conserva-
tives to vote for Reformers and Re-
formers to vote for Conservatives.
They think that the voter should have
been left at liberty to vote for five
Conservatives or FIVE Reformers and
mix them according to inclination.
This question was settled at the recent
conference, and futher discussion of it
seems to be entirely out of order; but,
in our opinion, the rule is the best that
could be devised, especially in the in
terest of real harmony. 1t seems cal
culated to allay factional feeling, not
only now but hereafter.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1895-07-17
As TO NEW COUNTIES.

An important question before the
coming constitutional convention will
be the formation of new counties.
The question has not been made a
prominent issue yet; but it will be, if
not on the stump, certainly in the
convention, and the people may as
we'll commence to give it serious con-
sideration.
Under the present constitution, no
new county can be formed with a less
area than 625 square miles. In many
sections, the counties are large enough
to easily justify division and the for
nation of new counties. Where such
is the case, when the formation of a
new county is desirable, the only
difficulty in the way is the matter of
securing the necessary permission from
the legislature. In some of the small
er counties, however, there are growing
towns that are ambitious of becoming
county seats, and it is frequently the
case that on account of the constitu-
tional provision fixing the minimum
area for new counties, they are barred
from the consummation of their ambi-
ton. Therefore, people interested in
the project are in favor of having the
constitutional area of counties reduced.
York is one of the smaller counties.
With river on either side, State
line on the north, and another small
county on the south, she is peculiar
ly situated, and in very bad shape for
division, to say nothing of present or
future expenses. There are those,
however, who are in favor of cutting
of slices from either side. The En-
oUIRER for one is unalterably opposed
to any such arrangement, and we be-
lieve that in this matter majority OF
the people of the county are with U.s..
If we are correct, there is in sight but a
single remedy, and that is to refuse to
vote for any candidate who neglects to
pledge himself absolutely against any
reduction of the 625 square miles at
present prescribed as the minimum
area for the formation of new counties.

and have in 161 acres of cotton and
387 acres of corn, exclusive, of course,

The Kentucky State Democratic
Executive committee is trying to
squelch Senator Blackburn. Senator
Blackburn is an ardent advocate OF
the free coinage of silver, and the
committee has practically enjoined
him against making any more speeches
in the State on the subject. Senator
Blackburn is inclined to be rebellious.
Notwithstanding the fact that Cleve-
land and Carlisle have construed the
national platform in favor of gold, he
says that other good Democrats have a
right to their opinion that the platform
should be construed the other way,
and he proposes to continue his can
vass of the State in advocacy of silver.

earthed deep laid scheme on the par
of the Conservatives. They are fixing
to take all of their candidates out o
the race but two, and make us vote fol
two men that we don't want. The
inpossibility of the Conservatives evel
being able to arrive at an agreement
as to which two they would run, wa:
suggested: but he continued to noise
his immaginary grievance as though ii
were an accomplished fact and made
a real difference.
Mr.. w. B. McCaw stated positively
to several people that he would not be
candidate that he had never enter
tanned the idea for an instant.
DR.. Carothers gave it out in a some
what mysterious manner, that he
would not be candidate unless it be.
came necessary "to break up combi'
nation"
AIR. G. L. Riddle was strongly urged
by both Conservatives and Reformers
to be a candidate. He did not seem
to be at all pleased with the idea; and
was rather inclined to refuse but,
finally took the matter under advise
ment, with a promise to announce his
decision later.
DR.. John G.. Black was in the court
house, and went with the other can
didates into the room to agree upon
the order of speaking but did not
declare himself. 1t is understood that
many Conservatives are urging him to
run, and he may yet decide to do so.
= Mr.. w. B. Wilson was approached
by Western York man with the ad-
monition that the people were going
to give him scissors on the new county
question. He replied that nobody
was worried about that but the people
of Yorkville. He was then asked as
to how he stood on the question any
way, and said he would make bis
position clear on the stump.
Messrs. Wifborn, Edwards and r.
NJ. Carroll were all in Yorkville, and
were looked upon as possible candi-
dates but so far as could be learned,
none of them gave any intimation as
to their intentions in regard to the
matter. James Cansler was also on
hand, talked half seriously about en-
tering the race for the fun of the
thing; but when he learned that
there was only to be the opportunity
to make three speeches, he gave up
the idea.
But, after all, whether there is to be
large number of candidates to choose
from would be difficult to say. There
are lots of men who want to run; but
who are afraid, and there are quite a
number of men who do not want to
run; but really think they ought to.
Between the two kinds, perhaps most
voters will find it a comparatively
easy matter to make up ticket.
