THE SALUDA BRIDGES.

Tho Saluda Advocate figures down
to a nicely the conditions on which II
will favor the building OF some steel
bridges across the Saluda.
1t wants the citizens who are directly
. and Immediately interested and near
the nrivcr to subscribe thrcc-tifths OF
tho amount, and then it will favor help
ing out Of the county funds for the
erection of the bridges, Snluda's por-
ton.
We understand that Il good private
subscription has already been raised
for this purpose.
But why should the citizens who re-
rrivc immediate and direct benefits
from these bridges DC asked TO contri-
butte out of thcir individual pockets?
There are no doubt some bridges in
other parts of the county built out OF
the public funds, which are Of direct
benefit to the citizens who 1.-Two near
them and which in al probability will
never be used by the people who want
the bridges over Saluda. These citizens
were not asked to help build these
bridges ont OF their private pockets.
Then why should the people near
S Slludu river be asked TO do it?
1t is alright il the people who want
the bridges across Suluda arc willing
t. help pay for them, but there is no
NJ sense or reason or Justice IN laying
down II condition precedent that they
mast put up u certain proportion before
thcm.
There are bridges on Enorec river
AID Indian creek in this county that
were built out Of the general fund and
that arc no Immediate benefit to the
p oplr on the Saluda side, but tho
Saluda people did not object to the
building of them.
1t is true this IL II line bridge, but
what matters that ii each county bears
i $ proportion OF the cost.
! nc bridges should be built and wo
holc the County Commissioners OF
both counties will not lay down any
specified amount to be raised by private
subscription without which the coun-
tics will not build them.
The convenience and expense OF
fcrriagc Of these people who want these
bridges should be considered ~ we'll as
others, for they pay their proportion OF
tho taxes and help to keep up and build
bridges in other parts Of the counties.
Get what private subscription you
can but go ahead and build the bridges
and remove the barrier which scpar-
ntcs the two counties and bring us
closer together. socially and CONNER
riully. 1t will help the people of both
counties.

Mrs. Loran's Lecture.

The Easter week services at the Metro
politan NJ. E. Church were opened last
night with a lecture by Mrs. John A Logan,
who talked on Seville in Holy Week"
The church was well filed with an interest
ed assemblage, who listened to Mrs Logan
with every mark of attention. Mrs. Logan
spoke of the Importance of Seville when it
was a center of art and literature and told
many interesting facts about the old CITY,
She gave a graphic description of the sights
and scenes in and around Seville, especial
ly on the occasion of her visit to 1t a Year
ago. Mrs. Logan gave account of the
great Easter Sunday bull fight, and said
that it was no wonder that vice and bru-
tality now predominated in Seville under
such conditions. 1t Is not matter of sur
prise. she said, that Spain should lose re-
spect in Cuba, and that the Cuban people
should not be satisfied with a government
not in pace with the age. when one has
seen such scenes Of brutality and signs of
degeneration. The great sacred procession,
with its gorgeous floats and images was
described, and the different celebrations in
connection with the great feast were graph
ically depicted. Mrs. Logan said that the
minging Of moral and immoral things was
peculiar to the country. and that until this
condition of affairs was changed Spain
could not hope to be bettered.
