Acting Chairman for Sumter County.
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1905-02-08

Hon. T. B. Fraser has had some
complimentary things said about him
recently. We wonder if those people
in the legislature are just finding out
what manner Of man he is. y Sumter
has long held him at his true worth,
conservative, patriotic and incor,up-
tibIe. Mr.. Fraser is the peer Of any
man in any legislature from auy
county in any State, in respect to
these virtues. His modesty alone pre-
vents a wider appreciation of his
merits in these days of scrambling
pciities.
It is an excellent idea for the county
to assist the patrons Of public schools
to have better school houses but we
do not fancy Mr. Richards plan to
use dispensary money exclusively for
the purpose. Why not make the ap-
preparation out Of ordinary county
funds This thing Of tying our educa-
tionel system hard and fast to the
dispensary machine and putting
premium on the use Of liquor is being
carried too far
A law to require lawyers to be
ready for trial when a case is called
would do more to relieve the conges-
ton Of business in the courts than
the creation of a half dozen new
circuits.
There are thousands Of acres Of
land in Sumter county that would be
more profitable to the owners if
planted in fruit, grapes, peas, truck,
or peavine hay than in cotton. That
is the way to control cotton produc-
ton and make money at the same
time.

heinze is the Loser.

A Helena, Montana. dispatch says: The Supreme Conrt of the state has just decided one of the most i'm portant mining cases in the history of the state, in favor of the Amalgamated as against the Heinze interest, which is known as the Nipper. Heinze claimed the right to go under the Anaconda and Never Sweat miues, two of the richest properties of the Amalgamated.
 The lower court held th HeiDze had these rights, but the Supreme Court in an unanimous opinion re verses this finding and orders new trial on several grounds, chief of which is that the evidence does not support the findings. The decision i- regarded as about the most far.sighted in the history of mining litigation.

The pumpnen and machinists are busy at the big shaft of the Tom bsto, Consolidat ated Mines company install. ing the new pump on the 8a0 foot leve'. This is being done under difficulty, since this level is in the wet range, and water is prevalent on all occasions. By the com bined operation of the pump- the water is kept lowered, and but little delay is experienced in the work concentrated a: this point. It is thought that within a month the 80J foot level pump will be in full opera- tion. The testing works for the cya. hide treatment continues, and upon the final results will depend the metb- cd of handling the large low grade ore reserves of the company. It is prob able that the present mill capacity will be increased to 150 tons daily should the mill operations be decided upon. The usual ore shipments are made to the smelter and the working force slightly ncreased.-Tncson Citizen.
