OUR CIVILIZATION.

We again appeal to our. .coun
ty authorities to do something
about having the miserable holes
filled up in the public roads lead
ing into town. If the chain gang
cannot be spared for th.t pur-
pose, why not, as we have al
ready suggested, have the road
overseers call out their hands to
do the work? The present con,
dition of the county's main
thoroughfares is disgrace to even
semi, civilization. One Of Clem
son Colleges lecturers IN this
county last year said that the
public roads in Lancaster county
were the worst he hal seen in
twenty y-five years, and if he were
to come back now he would see
but little, if any, improvement

MILWAUKEE EXTENSION.

1t is certain that the Milwaukee has a
surveying party in the field running a
line between Minneapolis and Duluth. A
dispatch from Milwaukee to that effect
was viewed with suspicion at first but
1t is now known to be correct. President
Roswell Miller. of the Milwaukee, admits
that such party is in the field. At the
Minneapolis offices of the Milwaukee AS
sistant General Superintendent Under
wood said that while h. had no official
knowledge of the matter it was not to
be denied that the general talk around
the central offices was to the effect that
a party had been put into the field. This
party is entirely independent of the local
representatives of the Milwaukee's en-

Out of something like 100 samples Of
vinegar analysed by the food and dairy
department in the last month one sample
was found of pure cider vinegar made of

Doubtless more cider vinegar made
from apples could have been found if the
department had been looking for the
genuine article instead of seeking viola

that there were all these specimens of
bogus vinegar and as many more as any
body chose to collect
