From Sueartown.

Mr.. Editor: Az you have regu..
lar correspondent from this side OF
the county, don't know whether 1
would be doing right to ask OF your
space for a short letter or not. Ii
YOU cant afford to give space just let
It go to waste basket and I shall not
think hard of you in the least, for you
editors I know have more to contend
with than any other class OF business
men. I also ask Mr.. "A" to not
think that I am trying to infringe on
his rights, should you happen to al
low me space. =,
I want to inform him (X) that oil
of US that pay road tax do not live on
the two roads lie spoke OF last week
that had been worked with the big
mules and road scrape. He knows
that some of US ''fellows" live on short
line public roads on each side Of the
two he spoke Of, and he further knows
that they are unsafe, for he was seen
the other day travelling over one OF
them leading his horse, while his
family Was riding. It was amusing
to see him scratch his head while try
ing to lead his steed on the best
ground Now, old boy, (A) If you
will promise to do better part by us
hereafter, won't tell what you said
about our County Commissioners
when you fell down and came near
being run over while looking back
watching to keep the wheels out OF
some deep ruts that would have
broken the strrups off of your vehicle
had it gone down in them. All We ask
of tx" is to 'toat" fair with US side
tracked boys and that be may look
for this scribe cne OF these Sundays
to partake OF that pan cake, honey
and butter. I like sweet milk with 1t
too.
Mr.. Editor, we all tbink you spoke
pretty stout about the Supervisor and
County Commissioners, also the Eas'
ley Progress, for man OF avolrdu'
pois. Our motto is hew to the mark,
let the chips fall where they will. The
editor of the Progress has the wrong
SOW by the ear when he said Mrs.
Susan Holcombe. A Miss Susan
HAWKINS who lives near US, did get a
pension a few years ago; can't say
whether she has been dropped from
the list or not. Before I close would
like to say, that it is not pleasant
news to Mr.. Talley's many friends on
this side of the county to learn OF the
impoliteness shown him by the other
Commissioners.
Mr.. Editor, if You ever decide to
stop over with our old friend ''A" to
take some of that pan cake and honey
would be glad to be with you.
Mr.. James Clardy and DR.. Aulston
of Laurens, got off of train here last
Saturday. They were on their way
to visit Mr.. A. B. Kay who has been
quite feeble for some time. Mr..
Clardy is a brother-in law of Mr..
Kay's.

Hearing of the mandamus suit Of
Governor Dole and others of the Terri.
torial Board Of Public Institutions
against Superintendent of Public
Works II. Z. Cooper was yesterday
continued until tomorrow. In his re-
turn to the writ Superintendent Coop
er denies that those officials named as
compliments constitute Board Of
Public Institutions as set forth in Par
agraph l. of said alternative writ for
the reason that the Act Of the Legis-
lature of the Territory of Hawaii pur-
porting to create such Board of Public
institutions. to-wit: Act 81 of the
Session Laws of 1903, is contrary and
Iepugnant to the provisions of the
eminent for the Territory Of Hawaii,
and is null and void; and more partic-
ularly for the reason that that part Of
said Act 81 Of the Session Laws Of 1908
which purports to create such Board
Of Public Institutions is contrary and
vide a government for the Territory
Of Hawaii and especially to Section
As, 70, 20, and so Of said Act"
Superintendent Cooper also denies
that the Act was passed by the Legis-
lature in the same form as was signed
by Governor Dole. He denies that the
Board was legally organized and de-
Clares the meeting OF the Board null
ity, alleging also that the Court is with
out jurisdiction in the matter and that
said Act 81 Of the Session Laws Of 1903
as signed by the Governor of the Ter
ritory was never passed by the Legis-
!ature of the Territory Of Hawaii or by
either the Senate or House of Repre-
sentatives of said Legislature. and is
therefore null and void and of no force
or effect whatsoever"

up all along the line and the ap-
pearance of West Broad has under
gone a decided change in every
particular.
For years. West Broad street was
too sandy for heavily loaded We
hicles to pass over it, Very few
ever rode out the street in buggies
or carriages. 1t seemed useless to
beautify a home or improve the
appearance of store. The major
ity of the people lived slow and
easy They hoped for no great
trade. There was no favorable sign
that they would ever get it. Many
of the old time eating houses, fish
houses, run down secondhand
clothing stores, second-class drug
stores and saloons, seemed to have
fallen into unhealthy slumber.
After this fashion, the old street
lived for years with no dream of
progress, and no hope of ever be-
coming nearer the center of trade.
The banks were a long way off.

the city. So everything and
everybody slept and felt easy, until
the news began to ripple up and
down the line that the Union Sta
ton might be built. Then there
was a waking up-there was loud
talking, and the old rats began to
squirm, Progressive shop keepers
from other sections of the city and
from other cities began to pour into
West Broad street, prospecting
And before the year was out, the
rats had fed. and new business
houses had started. AS the Union
Station began to be erected, more
business houses were started and
finished long before the Station
was finished. A spirit of thrift had
seized the people and this progress
siVe wave has not subsidized yet. In
deed it has gained strength. 1t is
growing faster to-day than it has
grown yet.
Such business men as Slater
Traub, Schroeder and others have
put their money by the thousands
into houses for their business on
West Broad.

WEST BROAD STREET,
THE NEW THOROUGHFARE

: 1t is doubtful if ever in the his
tory of Savannah there has been
any improvement in any part of
the city which has so completely
changed the existing conditions of
business as the opening up of West
Broad street. by paving it and by
making all trains arrive and depart
from its depots.
Ever since the announcement
the Union Station would be built,
there has been a rush to the new
thoroughfare.
This has been more than two
years ago, and the influx of bust
ness and of people who wish to live
in this new section, continues to
grow. Not only are new business
houses being erected right along
from one end of the street to the
other, but some of the most modern
apartments are being opened up for
families and they are being engag-
ed before they are completed.
Old houses have been overhauled,
reprinted and in many instances
torn down and rebuilt, even when
the owners had no desire to rent

Excepting a few, the wholesale

in the new thoroughfare' vicinity,
and is doing a banking business for
