Nom &C 10 the Pnhlic Offices.

Now, as TO the PuDllc OInceS.
Four years ago it was given out
that Bishopville simply wanted to be
the County Seat for the public good
end the public convenience. She
wanted none of the Offices.
When the Primary Election came off,
BishopviIe and vicinity had at least
one candidate. and in some instances
two, in the field for nearly every one
of these public Offices, and succeeded
in electing some of them.
The files of the newspaper then pub
lished at Bishopville Will show this to
be true.
This palpable breach of good faith
so disgusted some of its former ad-
herents in Kershaw County and else
where, that they are now opposing the
present new county.
. Again, four years ago the village Of
Bishopville promised that if made the
county seat, it would furnish all the
public buildings for the new county,
free, and without cost to the tax
payers.
4 public meeting was held and the
promise ratified. So soon, however,
as the election was over and the new
county supposed to have been estab-
lished, an effort was made to borrow
s15, 600 from the State Sinking Fund
Commission upon the obligation of the
new county wherewith to erect these
buildings.
a county's obligation could only be
paid by taxation levied upon the prop
erty in the new county.
This act was such breach Of good
faith that a circular signed by a num-
Der of prominent gentlemen residing
in the new county was published and
distributed broadcast, denouncing the
attempt to impose this large debt
upon the people, and threatening to
call a new election to change the coun-
ty seat from Bishopville to some other
point.
Some of these circulars are still in
existence and will speak for them
selves.
1t is now proposed, as we see in the
public prints, to make a deed to the
Opera House just erected in Bishop
vile and donate the same for q Court
House.
The public records in the Clerk S
Office at Sumter will show that there
is a s., 600. 90 mortgage upon this Opera
House. and we learn that an addition
al 81, ,OO0.O0 has since been borrowed to
complete it.
A gift, burdened with s6,000.00 OF
debt and which is doubtless the full
value of the property, is not in itself
an evidence of sincerity or good faith.
The tax payers of the new county,
if the same is established, may be
called upon in few years to pay of
this mortgage by taxation Of their
property.
a few DAYS ago that Judge Gary had
decided in the Sydney Park case in
Columbia as follows:
E"But property held by a city, as q
Public Park for the use OF all It's cltl-
zens. cannot be taken for any Other
public use without express Legislative
authority. -,
has no authority to make a donation
of its Opera House to the new county.

so.

STAINS RICH IRON ORE BEDS.
She Sells Millions of Tons to othe

She Sells Millions of Tons to Other Lands, But Buys Steel. The leading industrial journal of Spain, commenting on the fact that a steamship had taken load of iron ore to the United States and had just re- turned with cargo of steel rails, de- plores the almost entire lack of steel works in Spain, and the consequent ne- cessity of importing steel into coun- try that is very rich in iron ore of the
 best steel making quality.
 Spain has been the classic land of the
 mining industry since the time of the
 Phoenicians and yet the main use the
 country makes of it's rich supply of
 metals Is to sell them to other coun-
 tries. The splendid iron ore among the mountains of the north coast is
 hematite of the best steel grade. There is plenty of coal with which to reduce the iron ore, the coal output in some years being worth as much as $30 000,- COG: but though Spain has every fa- cility for making all the iron and steel the people need most of the commodities are imported
 Tn recent years, to be sure, consider able industrial activity has developed in the Basque province among the mountains where the iron ore is dug out of the crust of the earth, and also in Catalonia, in the extreme northeast of the kingdom, mainly at the city of Bar celona and around it. The chief indus try is the manufacture of iron and ma chinery, but not nearly enough are made to supply the demands of the country So Spain continues to ship from Bay of Biscay ports thousands of tons of her fine ore to Great Britain, Germany, France and Belgium, whore it is used for steel making. Great Britain buys more than one-half of the ore and most of it is melted in South Wales, the chief seat of the Bessemer steel industry.
 There is only one other country that is great producer of iron ore and yet depends upon other lands to turn this raw material into pig iron and steel. That country is Sweden, which, how ever, has a good excuse for selling it's ore instead of making iron and steel of it. Sweden has practically no coal and therefore it is at great disadvantage, for it is without fuel to smelt it's ores, while Spain has both ore and fuel in bundance.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

IN AUSTIN'S DEFENSE.
MT. Fawcett Says the Laureate Can

MT. Fawcett Says the Laureate Can Write Good Prose and Talk Well. ] In the November Era, Edgar Faw- | cett comes to the defense of Alfred Aus 1 tin. the perennially assailed and fre- quently maligned poet laureate. Of the English court minstrel and his lay, MT. | Fawcett says
 Tt is not many years since England has welcomel new poet with ardor. Possibly she might give as reason for
 this reserve her belief that there have been no new poets of late, worth well
 coming at all. MT SWinburne, she
 might tell you, still remains, the poetic
 specter of himself, and yet with his
 name indissolubly allied to some of the
 most lofty lyrics ever felt or grasped
 But everybody has set his face against
 the present poet laurete, even now,
 when his verses courteously printed by the Times outjingo jingoism. It has in- deed become an iron fashion to speak disagreeably of MT Alfred Austin S poetry. I am afraid that if any one attempted to stand up for him in any literary club room, such defender would soon find himself haranguing empty D. actual quality of his production, there is no doubt that Mir Austin has been very cruelty treated indeed, His verses would have to be disreputable if they were as bad as certain fiery folk insist, and that they are worse at their worst than mildly commonplace is altogether false. The other day. it is true, MT. Austin was unlucky enough to sing of Fang -throated treason Some critics at once began a wicked war dance, and wanted to know if fanes were to be found as a rule, in the throats. MT. Austin might have retaliated that even Shakespeare had given sea coast to Bohemia, and Byron had made ducks and drakes of the very to lie. /" AS prose writer the laureate has numerous admirers. and as an orator I am one of the many who have heard with extreme pleasure his fluent and felicitous hand ling of his native idiom."

DROWNED I'M A CLOUD BURST
Thomas Hawkins Caught in a Tor
 rential Stream.

Last Thursday afternoon the sad in
 telligence reached Jerome that Thomas
 Hawkins had been drowned while at
 tempting to cross an arroyo running
 burst in the vicinity, says the Jerome
 News.
 Thursday evening Hawkins and Ed Walker were in a two-horse buggy go-
 ing to Aultman, when about ten miles from Jerome they came to an arroyo
 leading through the property ot the
 Monarch Mining company. It was de-
 cided to find the depth of the water before driving in with the buggy. flaw
 kins unhitched one of the horses from the buggy, mounted him and rode into rthe stream. When a short distance from the bank the horse stumbled and fell. throwing Hawkins into the water
 upon a large rock, which was JUS. De- low the surface. The force of the IIll rendered him unconscious. as he was apparently dead when first seen by Walker immediately afterwards. His body drifted about 20u yards below the scene of the accident, where It was found upon a bar. The remains were taken 10 the home of Dan Marr. with
 whom he had been staying, and pre- pared for burial in the Cottonwood
 cemetery for the following day.
 The deceased was a young man, "A
 years Cf age, honorable and just wi!1 all. He was engaged and was scon 10

 father he was in partnership in the eat tie business. He was having a house l built in anticipation of his marriage. The cruel hand of fate is against this
 family. Tom being the third one of
 the Hawkins brothers to meet tragic and unnatural death. One was Killed by horse n ar Cottonwood a short time past. another brother was shot and killed in Jerome, whEe acting as peace officer sevLial years ago.
 There are two surviving brothers, one of whom Is Dr. l.. A. Hawkins. the Jerome dentist. The mother and father being long since dead.

A misinterpretation of copy caused a ridiculous error to occur in the ad- vertise ment of D. D. Whitney X Sons, on the editorial page last week. The firm was advertising trunks at $500 each and instructed that the price be set in IS point type. The ad man had only the instructions in mind, and made the price Sls.00 instead of $500. While the former figure is nearer the worth of one of Whltney's trunks, we cheelfully make the correction in order to give their customers the benefit Of the best trunk on earth for S5.00.
