though the corn was in the roasting ear
stage and carrying a heavy yield, Mr..
Love did not hesitate minute; but told
the haulers to just cut out a road and go
ahead. Mr.. G. r. Wallace has big pea
field in which there is large quantity of
desirable rock. The peas are so nearly
ready to cut that Mr.. Wallace did not care
to lose them. He generously proposed,
however, that if Mr.. Gordon, who is in
charge of that section, would wait few
days until he got the peas off, he would
give the rock and also throw in days
hauling for every day that was put in by
the hands. The offer, of course, was ac-
cepted. Other instances of like liberality
could be mentioned.
When work was first commenced, there
were many along the route who seemed
to have the idea that grading was unnec-
essary, and that narrow strip Of thin
macadam would answer every purpose.
This notion is no longer entertained. To
a man, the subscribers are now for 1.-THE
best three or four miles of road that have
ever been built in York county," and the
outlook is that they are going to be satis-
fled with nothing else.

A GOOD THING TO KILL.

At secret meeting of the town council,
last Friday might've say secret for the
reason that nobody but the members were
allowed to know that the meeting was to
be held-an ordinance was passed to SUBJ
nit to the people of Yorkville the ques-
ton of surrendering their present charter
and adopting the general incorporation
act. The election is to be held on Sep
tember II.
The reasons for the proposed change, if
any, are not stated. 1t is fact, however,
that while the present charter only allows
levy of two mills for town purposes, the
general incorporation act permits levy
of 10 mills, and where the present charter
provides that members of the town coun-
Gil shall serve without compensation
not even allowing water rent-the pro-
posed new charter is silent on this SUBJ
ject. The town has been run since about
1880 on two mills, and there are quite a
number of citizens who cannot see how,
with proper management, that amount is
not still sufficient. If however, any
member of the council can give good
reason why the proposed change should
be made, the columns Of The ENQUIRER
are hereby thrown open to him for the
purpose.

McLAURIN'S CONDITION.
A Very Plain State ment as to His Recent
Illness

1llneSS
The effort to make it appear that
Mr.. McLaurin did not faint at York
Vile, and also that he will be repudia'
ted by the voters of his county, is
met by a statement from his family
physician and from prominent citizens
of Marlboro. AS to whether they will
be able to overtake the canard COM
pletely, of course, is doubtful ; but
where it may be read their statement,
which is as follows, cannot fail to es-
tablish the truth:
The statement that the Hon. John
l.. McLaurin did not faint at York
Vile and has not been sick, is absolute
ly false. He overworked himself in
Washington and during the senatorial
campaign, the consequence being a
physical collapse at York, after his
speech. According to the statement
of York physicians, had he forced him
self to speak few minutes longer al
York, the consequences would proba-
bly, have been fatal. Since his return
to his home in Bennettsville, he has
been seriously ill. Under his physi.
clans orders, he had to remain away
from the campaign meetings, much as
he wished to attend them aud face his
opponents.
The statement that a majority of
the voters of Marlboro, his native
county, will not vote for the Hon. Jno.
l.. McLaurin, is simply absurd. Why,
even his opponents in his home county
admit that he will get over 80 per cent.
of it's votes. We are confident he will
poll at least so per cent. of Marlboro's
votes and will not be surprised if he
gets even more.

DOING HIS Duty,

Quite a number OF newspapers are us
posed to bitterly criticise Governor Eller-
be for his persistence in continuing his
fight in behalf of the dispensary law; but
such criticism appears to he at once un-
reasonable and unjust.
1t will be remembered that when the
state supreme court decided the dlspen-
sary law unconstitutional, Governor Till
man, according to his own explanation
took the law to the woods" waited un-
iii there was change in the composition
of the supreme court and brought it out
again. That this act, wrong and contrary
to law, is self-evident; but when the SUI
preme court subsequently, declared the
law constitutional, by that decision it was
so made, and of course Governor Till
mans action was at the same time duly
endorsed by the court, which endorse
ment made it all right.
But the present circumstances are en-
tirely different. The recent decisions OF
Judge Simonton are not only based on
United States statutes; but they are tech
nical and confusing to an extent which
make it doubtful as to whether the judge
himself fully understands their meanings.
Governor Ellerbe is sworn to enforce the
laws of the state and Of tho United States.
In order TO perform this duty he must
know what those laws are, and until this
information is developed there is no 9TH
er course for him to pursue than to con-
tinue TO fight to the bitter end every
doubtful point.
The incentive of those editors who are
criticising Governor Ellerbe is easy to
comprehend. They are anxious to wit
ness the speedy overthrow of the dispen-
sary law, and they know that if the gov
ernor would let up, they would at once
see the accomplishment of their desire.
In this desire they are not, Of course, to
be blamed, because if they want to en-
tertain it they certainly have right to do
so; but for them to blame Governor FL
lerbe, az already stated, is unjust. Wheth-
er the governor himself would be glad to
see this law sustained or wiped out, so
long as there is vestige of it left on the
statute hooks, it is his sworn duty to up
hold it with all the resources at his COM
nland.
