The Gaffhey Ledger of Thursday,
contains telegram from Columbia to the
effect that strong effort is being made to
defeat the bill providing for the organiza-
ton of Cherokee county. The opponents
of the bill alleged certain irregularities in
the calling and conduct of the election,
etc. We say with all sincerity that we
are sorry to see anything of the kind.
While we have never believed that it was
to the interest of the people of Cherokee
township, or the balance of the county, for
Cherokee to cut herself off, since the peo-
pie there have indicated their preference
by such an overwhelming majority, we
do not think that any obstacles should be
put in their way. There may have been
Irregularities, etc., in the calling and con-
duct of the election. On this point we
have no positive information one way or
the other. But even if there were such
irregularities, the objections arising there
from are purely technical and should not
be allowed to overturn the expressed wish
of the people. All that The ENQUIRER
asks is that those people who are so unan-
imous in their desire to remain in York
be allowed to do so, and that portion of
the township which desires to leave, be
permitted to do so in peace.

Re-Union at Major whitesides'--Rev. Mr..
Knox at Bethany.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
ZADoK, Jan. 19.-As the weather per-
mits, the people of this section are sharp
ening up their old plows and making
some preparations for new crop.
There was delightful family reunion
at the residence of Maj. T. P. Whitesides
on Thursday of last week. The occasion
was the celebration of the old gentle
mans 73rd birthday. All the children
and grandchildren were invited, and
also few outside friends. There were
twenty-three grandchildren present, and
a few were kept away by illness. There
was bountiful dinner which was en-
joyed by all. The old gentleman was in
the best of good spirits, and so long as he
enjoys life as he seems to now, the best l
can wish for him is that he will be allot-
ted years to the number of three more
score and ten.
Rev. J. P. Knox of Hickory Grove,
came over on Saturday to conduct pro-
tracted meeting at Bethany. The services
are being we'll attended, and Mr.. Knox is
making splendid impression. He is
one of those preachers who breaches the
gospel as it is laid down in.the Bible, and
who is always listened to with the closest
attention.
Uncle Ran has been laid up with the
grip; but is improving little.
There are an unusually large number
of cases of grip throughout this section.

Correspondence Of the Yorkyille Enquirer.
BLAcKsBURa, January 2.-The press
dispatch in regard to the railroad from
this place to Gaffney, published in THE
ENQUIRER Of the 10th instant, like every.
thing else we get out of your valuable pa
per, was of considerable interest to our
people, and to confirm its correctness. l
am glad to say that now there is not the
least doubt but that the road will be built
and work will be begun at an early day.
A number of the stockholders and di-
rectors Of the o. r. & G. road were here
few days ago, and went oyer the proposed
route by way of Cherokee Falls Cotton
mills, and the famous and historic Chero-
kee Falls ford, where the finest water
power in the state exists; and I learn
from good authority that they were well
pleased with all they saw, and the build
ing of the road is only matter of time.
They were William Wood, Evans r.
Dick, w. D. Frishmuth, Jas. G. Leper,
Samuel Welsh and R. A. Williams, all of
Philadelphia, and were accompanied by
President and General Manager Samuel
Hunt and Superintendent A. Tripp. DR..
J. G. Black, who has helped to work up
the scheme, was also scheduled for the
trip but was prevented from going on ac-
count of a severe attack of Ia grippe.
This terrible hydra-headed disease is still
prevalent in our community; but 1 am
pleased to say that with one or two excep-
tions, no very serious or fatal cases have
developed yet.
The Rev. r. w. Anderson, rector OF
the Episcopal church at Yorkville and
this place, began his first weekday SER
vices in the church last night. Besides
the evening services, his address consisted
mainly in an exposition of the prominent
features of the book of Common Prayer,
which was very interesting and instruct
i've. These services will be continued ev-
cry Thursday and Friday evening, dur
ing the year. w. "A.

In The SENATE.-An effort was
made to pass over Governor Evaps's
veto, the bill taking away from the
chief executive the power to remove
magistrates from Office. The vote re-
suited 1S 10 13 in favor of the passage
of the bill. Mr.. Love voted with the
majority. The proposition failed of
the necessary two-thirds vote, howev-
er, and for the present the bill is dead.
A bill to enable minor in Saluda
county to apply for admission to the
bar, was killed 10 to Is on the ground
of special legislation. Mr.. Love voted
against the bill.
The election for two judges and
penitentiary officials was slated for
yesterday. Messrs. R. M. Carroll and
John D. Cornwell of York county,
were candidates for the position of
penitentiary director. Up to the time
at which it was necessary for The En-
oUIRER to go to press, we were unable
to get the news as to the result Of the
election.

YORKVILLE, 8. c.:
SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1897.

THE ENQUIRER notes with pleasure
that Senator Love has introduced bill
providing that express and telegraph
charges, etc., be subject to the regulation
of the railroad commission the same as
freight and passenger rates. Although
we have not seen the bill, we are satisfied
that it has been properly prepared and is
calculated to accomplish the object sought.
But watch developments. We venture
that strong lobby began moving in
Columbia within six hours after that bill
was introduced, and that if it ever be-
comes law at all, it will be in such an
emasculated shape as to be worth nothing
whatever. Watch

"PUBLIC ADVERTIsING.v

The advertising under control OF tne
county board Of commissioners was dis
posed of last Wednesday, for the year 1897,
by awarding" it to THE YoRKVILLE
ENQUIRER. There were only two bids
submitted; but they included all the
newspapers in the county except the
Rock Hill Sun and the Rock Hill Mes
senger. Here are the bids:
YoRKvILLE, S. c., January 10, 1897. .
To the Supervisor and County Board OF
Commissioners: We herewith beg leave
to submit proposal for publication, in THE
YoRKvILLE ENQUIRER, of such adver-
tsing as you are specifically required by
law to publish during the year 1897.
All such advertisements will be pub
lished gratuitously, and you will be at
liberty to publish them also in other
papers on the same terms. IL IS under
stood, however, that if you pay any other
newspaper for any advertisement emanat-
ing from your Office, then we will be en-
titled to demand and receive pay, at the
rates prescribed by law, for all advertise
ments which we may have published
previously, or which we may publish
subsequently.
AS we understand the situation at pres
ent, there is not now in sight any single
ad advertisement, the compensation for
which, at the rates prescribed by law,
will amount to as much as $50. Should
there develop a necessity for the publica-
ton of such an advertisement, and for any
reason we should not care TO publish 1t gra-
tuitously, it is hereby provided that if we
give notice to the supervisor, Immediately
upon his showing us the copy" that Of
fetal shall let out such advertisement to
such newspaper as will give the best ad-
vertising values upon the best terms.
The awarding of such advertising to some
other newspaper with compensation, will
not be construed as giving us the right to
demand pay for such advertising as we
have agreed to publish gratuitously,,
say that, if required, we will give bond
for faithful performance OF our part OF
this contract, in double the sum to which h
the advertisements you are specifically
required by law to publish, would amount
at the rates prescribed by law, and we
herewith respectfully request that you
will give us notice, in writing, OF your
acceptance or rejection of this PROPOSE
ton. J.. NJ. GRIST IL Sons,

big kick was made. There was no
objection to the Whitney portrait; but
a vigorous protest was made against
the use of McCormick's picture, the
protesting parties being people inter-
ested in the manufacture of other agri-
cultural machinery who saw in the
prominence thus given Mccormick, the
inventor, a great deal of free advertis-
ing which would be to the benefit OF
the Mccormick reapers at the expense
of their rivals. Secretary Carlisle
gave a hearing to these people, and,
as a result, has issued final instructions
against the use Of McCormick's picture.

PUBLIC ADVERTISING.

In another column will be found the
record of transaction which, to the aver
age citizen, will no doubt mske curious
reading. We refer to local article rela-
ting to the "public Advertising"
| 1t will be noted at once that the fight
seems to be two-sided one-the balance
of the papers in the county against The
ENQUIRER, or The ENQUIRER against
the balance of the papers in the county
and it is exactly what it seems.
This public advertising matter has
been subject of strife for years. There
are two reasons which make the adyer-
Using contended 70 especially desirable
to publisher. In the first place, the av-
erage newspaper reader wants it, and in
the second place, the compensation as
prescribed by law is reasonably renumera-
tive. From the standpoint Of the pub
Usher, no better reasons could be given.
Now. while in connection with this
matter there has been a good deal Of talk
about 'patriotism," Saving the people
money" "the value of competition
etc., sensible people have suspicion that
most of us are in business for the purpose
of making a living, and most business
men appreciate the value and importance
of an attribute known as principle. Well,
this is what we want to talk about for
minute.
That public advertising should be paid
for, most people will agree. Reasonable
men will hardly try to argue the justice of
requiring a fellow citizen to maintain an
expensive plant and run business for the
benefit of the public without compensa-
ton. And also, if compensation is award
ed, it should be in proportion to the value
of the service performed.
Now, one reason why THE ENQUIRER
is so much better as newspaper than
any other paper in this county, is because
it costs so much more money to publish
it. Both sides Of The ENQUIRER are
edited and printed at home. Constantly
employed upon this work, editorial and
mechanical, there are seven experienced
men. In the case of each of the other
papers in the county, one side is edited
and printed abroad, and we know it to
be fact that the cost Of the white paper
used by THE ENQUIRER weekly is as
great as is the weekly cost of any of the
other papers, as received in the respective
offices with one side edited and printed.
Or, to put it another way, the amount
paid by the most liberal of the other
publishers for weekly edition of his
paper with one side already edited and
printed, is only within a dollar of the
amount which is paid weekly to the least
expensive employe of THE ENQUIRER.
1t is for this reason, principally, that The
ENQUIRER has larger bona fide SUBJ
scription list than all the balance COM
bined and it is for this reason that the
rates prescribed by law are not excessive
pay to paper like THE ENQUIRER.
We have received overtures from time
to time to go into a combination on the
public advertising. We have had propo-
sitions from the Rock Hill Herald, the
Fort Mill Times and also the Yorkville
