METHOD OF ROAD MAKING.
The ClayinG of Sand and the
Sanding OF Clay on Rich
lands Roads.
To the Editor of The sta tc.

Since the publication of your
editorial comments on road work
in this county | have received
several inquiries from various
parts Of the country asking for a
detailed account Of our method
of working clay and sand roads,
and the average cost of said work !;
so if you will kindly permit me,
l will avail myself of your col
umns to make a general reply to
all such inquiries.
The road to be worked with
sand and clay composite should
be lined off the desired width,
which is usually % feet from
ditch to ditch, then deep bitches
should be cut to catch the sand
and water, and also to compel
vehicles to keep in the road and
thus prevent them from breaking
off the edge of the clay. Throw
the dirt to the centre of the road {;
leave the clay in the bottom Of
the bitches (if there is any there)
for the top of the road. Then
grade the clay hills, covering
with sand for about S or II inches.
Do not throw out tie sand in the
road, for the deeper the sand
under the clay the quicker it will
absorb and draw water from the
top surface. Put the sand on the
clay whilst it is wet and boggy
and until it has about the consis-
tency of sun brick. The quantl
ty of the sand to be used depends
on the quantity of the clay. Kao-
lin or chalk will Lot do, for we
have experimental with it and
find that it will not pack hard,
and it absorbs waer. Where
there are no clay hlls on the
road-and that is the case IN some
sections of our county-we haul
clay from the nearest mounds on
the roadside, and it gives me
pleasure to state that land own.
ners In such sections worked by
US have readily and generously
allowed US to haul the clay off
from their lands free Of all charge
and | have no doubt they would
do likewise In any part Of the
State.
We have tried sand on clay
roads and met with as much sue
cess as we have in working clay
into sand roads, aud whenever
clay gets boggy we propose to
suspend claying sand ami will
sand the clay, for then it will
work without picking the clay.
which i an expense WAIch should
be avoided whenever possible.
Now I wort Is TO the cost. The
estlmrje given you sometime aAo,
viz: $50 per mlIe, Is approximate
ly correct, bat 1t is proper for to

county chaingangs cost more than
they are worth. Is this so2 If our
county of Richland may be taken
as an example l answer unhesita-
tingly, no. The chaingang system
was established in this county in
July, 1895. Our tax levy for all
county purposes for 1890 81 was
3 IL, mills; 91-2, IA mills; 80
B, 3 1 4 mills; 931 4, 81 4 mills;
945, 3 3 5 mills 90, 3 3 4 mills
81, 3 l I mills; 90, 3 1 9 mills;
99,3 IA mills. So you will see by
a comparison of tax levies for the
past eight or nine years that our
county taxes haye been no higher
indeed for SOME portion of the
times have been lower-since the
adoption of the chaingang system
than they were before, and yet
more and better work has been
done on roads of the county since
its adoption than had been done,
| venture to say, in 25 years be
fore. 1t is true that the levy
from 80 to '95 produced sur
plus over and above the annual
expenditures of those years, and
that this surplus has been since
expended in the purchase of
machinery, chaingang plant, and
macadam work and court house
and Jail improvements, so that
the expenditure of our past sur
plus does not in the least affect
the point l wish to make, which
is that chainSang does not per
Sc increase county expenses. The
weak point of the system is that
the gangs are too small at pres
ent to cover much territory, and
people grow impatient for its
coming to their doors.
The acreage per diem cost of
maintaining our chaingang lex
elusive of cost of plant) is 20 cts.
per capita. l am told that in
some counties it costs somewhat
more, but this is the average cost
to us as our chaingang bills will
show. Now this, let it be re
membered, is the cost for our
present small gangs. The larger
the gang the less the per capita
rate would be, as is shown at the
State penitentiary, were, accord
ing to the report of Colonel Neal
made some years ago, a thousand
convicts can be dieted at 9 cents
per capita.
No sensible man advocates the
abolition Of the penitentiary. 1t
is and always will be a State
necessity. All tnat the friends
of the good roads movement ask
is that instead of farming so eX
tensively with convicts more OF
them should be put at work on
our public roads. Is such a desire
an improper or an eXtravagant
one!
Good roads and good bridges
are well worth working for, and
The State has spoken with no un
certain sound in favor of having
them. Whilst continuing your
advocacy Of such needed improve
ments let me hope that You will
keep up the fight against the mar
rowtired wagon, for, as has been
well said by 4 writer on the Sub
ject, "Next to water the greatest
enemy of all good roads is the
narrow tired wagon for it forms
ruts which make a trough for tn"
rain, which instead of running off
Lancaster enterprise. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1891-1905, 1899-08-16

estimate the actual cost for MAIN
tenance of the convicts, the feed
of the mules, and the wear and
tear of road tools. With an aver
age force of SO convicts we can
make four miles of composite
road per month. True, we have
not thus far done so for the rea-
son that the chainganc has had
to be occasionally employed at
emergency work In other direc.
tions, but if employed exclusively
in making composite roads 80
convicts can make four miles per
month at cost as above estlmat-
ed.
We desire it to be understood
that we do not claim, and have
never claimed, that sand and
clay composite will make as du-
rable road as a properly con-
structed macadam, and it is
proper to say also that ours has
yet to stand the test of contin-
uous rainy season, though it has
been tested by some heavy sum-
mer rains and stood the test ad-
mirably. All that we do claim for
our sand and clay composite is
that where, as is the case gener-
ally throughout South Carolina,
financial conditions do not admit
of macadam road building, the
next best thing is the sand and
clay composite, for it makes a
smooth, hard roadbed and costs
less than the repairs alone of the
macadam would cost. Whenever
the people become thoroughly
alive to the necessity of good
roads and are willing to tax
themselves to build them, then
our roads, especially these ada
cent to cities and towns, could be
macadamized, and it seems to me
that such law as that recently
passed in the State Of New York
would then be an advantageous
one for US here in South Carolina.
That law requires the State to
pay so per cent, the county 35
per cent, and the landowners on
each side of the road that is to be
improved 7 1.2 per cent of the
cost of the road improvement.
started out merely to answer
inquiries as to the manner of
building and the cost of construc-
tion of the sand and clay compos-

what beyond that point, let me
go on little further and say that
In my opinion you are wisely agi-
tating the reduction of State
farming and the increase of con-
vict labor In works of public util-
ity such as this Of road making.
AS is known of all men, the free
labor system of working roads is
a miserable farce and a dead fail
ure. Let the counties have all the
cOnvIcts they need on the roads
and then we can build them
scientifically. We can then repair
and build bridges, keep the roads
in thorough repair, do need sani-
tary work near the cities, drain
off fever breeding swamps and
put a stop to the constant dram
upon county revenues which has
grown up under our present
makeShlft system. Let us abolish
the free labor system entirely,
make the road tax compulsory
and apply such tax to the pay
ments for iron bridges, which

Serious Accident.

Charles Lord, driver of the Laurie
House omnibus, met with a very SER
ious accident on Monday last which
will incapacitate him for work for a
long time, and it is quite probable he
will be permanently crippled. At the
Great Northern station his team be-
came FESTIVE, and he stepped to their
hea Is to quiet them, but on their
plunging he was thrown to the ground,
and sustained compound comminuted
fracture of the right leg, three inch
es above the ankle. Whether a horse
stepped upon his ankle, or it was run
over by the wheels of the omnibus, he
did not know. The fracture is very
serious one. the bones being crushed
and shattered DR.. Lewis bound up
the limb in plaster cast and sent him
to Ashbury hospital in Minneapolis
for treatment.

Another Warning.

Notwithstanding all that has. been
said, and that there is a law against
it, number of boys in, this city will
play around the cars in the freight
yards and catch upon moving trains.
The following item from the Fergus
Falls Journal should prove warning:
Little Carl Weum, age seven, who
lost his life by the cars at Moorhead
on Tuesday, met his death in a manner
very similar to that in which A. G..
Anderson's little boy lost his foot in
this city. Several small boys reached
the railroad crossing just as North
ern Pacific freight was pulling slowly
along. Carl had an impulse to catch
on and seized the truss rods and
swung under the cars. The wheels
passed over his legs close to his body
and he lived but a few hours.

and resurrection of the Christ, the
Savior of the world. A set of NOV
