By reference to the proceedings of
the Democratic clubs published else
where in this issue, it will doubtless
be noticed that the Piney Woods
Democrats, passed a resolution en-
dorsing the proposition of building a
free bridge. at some central point,
across Saluda river. This is an i'm
portant matter and one in which all
our people are more or less directly
interested in. Such bridge would
undoubtedly be less expensive to the
people than the present system OF
paying their own ferriape and that Of
iu-ies aud Witnesses while attending
court both coming and going. Then
there a,e the citizans o. the &C unity to
be considered. We are satisfied that
large msi ,rity of our people favor
the building of the bridge and were
their wishes consulted in the matter
they would not hesitate to say 20.
Oar travels through the county in
late years taught Us that all the in
terests of the people makes this
bridge necessity aud that this ne
cessity is recognized and appreciated
by them. The time is ripe for the
work to be commenced, for the
longer it is delayed, the inconvenience
and annoy yapce are increased. The
matter is within the province of tie
County Com missioners to decide and
what are they going to do about it is
of much interest to US all and their
decision is auxlously awaited.

Governor Pennypacker and other
oficials OF the Keystone state, the
First City troop of Philadelphia, and
other interesting things were there,
not to mention the historic Liberty
Bell on view in the main lobby OF the
building. Visitors by the score were
ON hand from Philadelphia, Pittsburg,
Erie and other cities OF the state,
and II was soon apparent taat the
was to be one OF the big

has yet seen. During the day there

There has been an unusual stream

people. Assistant Keeper Ed. Rice

pointed to succeed Ford. Keeper
Plummer has been at the light 2f

has been so great that Mrs. Plum.
