Eight years ago, in 1888, while the
good and far seeing people0f Beat M.
3of our county thought they were
serving their God by defeating and
annulling my road contract | went he.
fore our Board OF Supervisors on sew
eral different occasions, and explained
to them that we had no stones
or rock, Or even shells available for
making good roads, yet l had found
that in reach Of all parts of our sand
roads, we could find good stiff clay,
and ii they would cause all the sand
roads to be first covered with about
six inches of clay and then about one
inch OF sand on top OF the clay, we
would have roads, in both wet and
dry weather, equal to any roads in The
United States. Sand roads rounded
up, say six to twelve inches in The
center, then covered six inches irep
in clay and one inch in sand, and well
rolled, would at once become hard:
and In wet weather the sand on ton
would serve 10 prevent the wheels
and horses feet coming in contact
with the clay, and prevent the clay
sticking to the wheels. Little, If any
attention was given to my suggestion,

GREATER PROSPECTS FOR THE PORT
OF PASOAGOULA.

We have entered upon the first year
OF the new century with an unusually
bright outlook for greater prosperity
for the Port Of P%ascagoula. The
l0adingat the present time OF IA large
feet OF vessels with the lumber pro.
duct OF this section gives local encOur-
agement and confidence in the cun-
tInued improvement Of our business
prospect.
The population of Scranton is in
creasing, it's commerce improving,
more buildings arc being erected and
a general activity prevails to add to
It's future development.
The facilities afforded by both water
and rail are inducements for the in.
vcstmcnt Of capital in industries
which can be made remunerative,
such as canning factories, hard wood
and furniture factories. No mistake
will be made in selecting either Pas
cagOula, Moss Point or Scranton as
manufacturing places.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL.

The DEMocRA1-STAR begins the
New Year and Twentieth Century
under happy auspices. The business
OF the past year was crowned with
success, and the new year promises II
more extensive patronage to our paper
than ever before. The subscription
list has abnormally increased and IL is
with a light heart we wish all our
patrons and friends an equally pros
porous year.
All praise to the Father above
through whose merciful kindness the
sun shines bright and warm on the
homes OF the rich and the poor alike,
and whose love must enter the hearts
Of all with equal radiance and power.

GOOD ROADS FROM CLAY.

From the New York Post.
Five years ago II farmer in Darling.
ton county. s. c., had occasion tn dig
Il pit near the highway, and wishing
to get rid OF the clay he spread it on a
sand.bed in the road. He builded bet.
ter than he knew, as that was the be-
ginning Of improved roads in the
county. The resultant improvement
In the roadway was observed by the
supervisor. who treated half Il mile of
road with clay. That WIS the first of
good roads In South Carolina, and it
stands as firm today as when it was
laid. During the five years that have
elapsed. $50 miles of the S95 miles of
roads In Darlington county have been
treated with clay, and one may ride Il
bicycle with ease over every mile Of it.
Formerly only light loads could with
difficulty, especially during the wet
season, be carried; now twice as much
can with ease be carried to market.
Where formerly only two bales of cot
ton were taken On Il Onel,orsc wagon
at best 1.-THE usual load being one bale),
now as many as four are seen.
