HON. COLE. l.. BLEASE.

Mr.. Blease spoke of the condition of
the road from Halfacre's Mill to New
berry and said he was sa istied all who
had travelled that road today, even af-
ter the good weather we have been
having, would agree that we need good
roads. Now as to the best way to Sc
cure them:
l am absolutely opposed to the issue
of bonds because after you have voted
the bonds for five or ten years, no mat
ter how your money may have been
wasted, you have no remedy. If you
vote tax like your school tax you
may stop it or continue it as you see
| fit. There is no use to deceive any
body as to this question. You now pay
State tax of five mills, county tax
of two and one-half mills, and a school
of mills, making a total of 10 12 mills.
The last Legislature appropriated$100, 900
more than it provided for raising, SO that
at the next session it will be confronted
with deficit of 100000. That is the
condition in which you now find your
selves.
| What you need is communication
tax. There is certain class of citi-
zens (referring to the negro) which
you can't reach with q property tax.
Then, if you want to do it, and | say
you ought to do it, vote upon yourselves
separate tax for good roads. Decide
for yourselves what tax you shall vote.
Mr.. Blease said federal aid was all
right and ought to be secured, but he
did not believe it could be secured SO
long as the republicans ere in power,
and they will be in power until the dem
ocrats stop Bryan's mouth, send Cleve-
land Off fishing and nominate Whitney
and Harrison on a sound democratic
platform. If we can get federal aid
however, let us meet every dollar we
get with dollar from our own pockets
We must have good roads and We must
pay for them. Vote your own tax, ant
as much as you see fit, but don't bono
yourselves.
COL. f. II. AULL
} was the first speaker after dinner. Col
Aull said that everybody realized the
advantage of good, roads-how they
would save time, and wear and tear ir
stock and vehicles and how they wouC
increase the value of lands s-and every.
body realized the Importance Of secur
ing good roads. This is the most import
: ant question before the people. The
country is being depopulated and tn.
cities are becoming congested-an alb
normal state. The solution of thi
! problem is the building of roads. Goo(
3 schools, good churches in the country
l thus making the country the ideal place
to live, as it was intended by nature i
should be, will follow good roads. Tn

GOOD ROADS CAMPAIGN.
Opening Meeting Held Oh Saturday at
Perry Halfacrc'S Mill-Ab0ut 200
III Attendance.

The opening meeting of the campaign
for good roads recently arranged by the
County Good Roads Association, was
held on Saturday at Perry Halfacre' s
Mill. in Township No. II. There were
about two hundred persons in attend
ance, including about seventy-five
ladies.
Speeches were made by the Rev. j.
A. Sigh, Col. E. H. Aull, Hon. Cole l..
Blease and w. A. Hill. Hon. Jno. F.
Banks presided over the meeting and
also briefly expressed his views. The
speakers all received good attention.
All were agreed that the roads should
be improved, and practically every
man in the audience seemed to be in
favor Of some plan for road improve
ment. The point to be discussed then
was the best method, and to this the
speakers devoted their attention.
The first speaker was
REV. J. A. SLIGH.
Rev. Mr. Sigh, after discussing the
advantages of good roads, stated his
plan for building them. He favored
property tax, and he did not think
five mills would be too much. The
property tax would permit the railroads
and the cotton mills to help, and they
are direct beneficiaries and would not
complain. There is $500, 1000 taxable Get
ton mill property in Newberry county.
The speaker gave frequent illustrations
in support Of his argument. The peo-
pie are being taxed for roads now in
the wear and tear Of vehicles and stock
and loss of time, more than they would
be taxed directly under the plan which
he proposed, and under that plan they
would secure the good roads.
stand here today, said the speaker,
making the assertion that am willing
to pay tax of five mills for improving
the roads. We must put the ball in
motion ourselves. If you want federal
aid, you must first show willing mind
by going in your own pockets. as
sure you the investment will return you
dollar for dollar if you never get any
federal aid. If the people will vote a
tax upon themselves and then petition
their congressman for federal aid | as
sure you, or | believe, it will come by
and by. Is it right to seek this govern
ment aid? South Carolina has got
nothing from the government compared
to the vast amounts appropriated to
other States for river and harbor i'm
provements, to the west for land irri-
cation, to the Mississippi levees. 1t is
right and just for South Carolina to get
this aid and in order to get it you will
not be forced to pay cent more tax
than you are paying now. But if you
don't help yourselves you never will
get it and the indirect tax which you
are paying now you will continue to
pay, and it will continue to go to the
North, and South Carolina will be left
behind in the mud. The speaker con-
sidered this question the most import
ant before the people.
