Congress is now in session, and
the country may look for such legisls-
ton as will place the Republican par
ty in an advantageous position in the
the coming election. Three hundred
and 6fty-two members answered to
the roll call at tho opening last Mon
day,and General David B Henderson
Of Iowa was elected speaker. James
D Richardson Of Tennessee was chos-
en- leader for the Democratic minori-
ty, John c Bell of Colorado the Pop
ulist leader, and Francis c Newland
of Nevada, the leader Of the Silver
party. Brigham H. Roberts member
elect from the State of Utah was
stood aside when the members were
being sworn in, on the objections of
Mr.. Taylor OF Ohio, the grounds OF
objections were that Mr.. Roberts is a
Polygamist. This case promises to be
very interesting and while tits almost
foregone conclusion that Mr.. Rob
erts will not be allowed to take his
seat, before Congress finishes with
his case there will be some develope-
ments of a sensational character.

The War and Navy Departments
are at odds over the removal OF the
wreck of the Maine from the harbor
of Havana. Secretary Long declares
that it is work for the Engineer
ing Corps of the Army, and General
Brooke asserts that the removal
comes under the head OF naval work,
since the wreck is a serious menace
to navigation in the harbor. How
ever this may be, the fact remains
that it would be national disgrace
if the huge frame is to remain in the
harbor, and furthermore there is
every reason to believe that there are
scores of bodies of the Names sea-
men buried beneath the wreck. Come,
get together, gentlemen, and resur-
rect the bodies of our brave jackies.

Good Roads.
Editor The TINES:

Editor TIE TINES:
Yes, by all means lets push the
public road question. MIR. Lanham
in my opinion has broached the most
important question that can occupy
our attention now. We need them
sadly. Not only from Summerton to
Manning but in other directions.
People laughed at and ridiculed
Coxey, but when he fought for better
roads he fought more wisely, and
with greater appreciation Of a crying
need than those who opposed him.
1t was too big an idea for his enemies
to embrace.
have yet to hear a candidate for
county Office or any other come out
on public road platform. There
are always those who have scheme
for reducing taxes, plan for running
the public schools thirteen months in
the year. Latterly they discuss Pro
hibition and the Dispensary.
Now all these are good and worthy
subjects, but if Mr.. Tillman could
not redeem his pledge to have taxes

islative candidates OF today can't do
it. The best way to get taxes reduc-
ed is to make our property more pro-
ductive, make US bigger returns, and
in this way be able to pay high taxes.
There will be no better way to do
this than to improve cur public road
system. Make it easier to get about,
bring communities closer together.
Take the oldest public roads in the
county and we find them laid out
with some system. They either run
to the county seat or to Charles
ton. One reason why the Summer
ton section has no direct road to
Manning is that all the old roads run
to Sumter or in that direction, having
been made before the division OF
Sumter district, and before Manning
was county seat. New public roads
are now in many instances cut with
no regard to any system. In many
cases cut for the express purpose Of
running by some promoters house,
and are just as crooked as any neigh
borhood road, and as poorly kept.
The fact is we have too many public
roads now, to be cared for, with the
present system of work. When we
had fewer roads, the law claimed -
days duty each year, now with more
roads, the time has been cut down,
this suppose on account of what
the changing does, but, in fact, the
roads are no better worked than be-
fore, except in isolated instances, the
great body of road bed, being still
worked by the usual road hands.
Several countries of Continental
Europe are noted for their fine road
systems. They are recognized as
being so very essential to the welfare
of the State that they are made up
elegantly and watched most jealous
ly, so as to be kept up to a high
standard of excellence. I would re-
spectfully refer our county authori-
ties to system of public roads which
has of late years been introduced into
the State of New Jersey. It is in
New Jersey, but I do not think the
plan is cornered by millionaire cor
poration, but can be borrowed By US.
This question is live one, and our
delegation in the Legislature could
not direct their attention to more
worthy object, and you Mr.. Editor
could not give your space to ques-
ton of more vital interest to your
subscribers.
Yours truly,
FARMER.
