The city council of Columbia will re-
quire tie Bell Telephone company to
place its wires underground on the prin.
cipal streets. Bamberg's city council
should require the same thing here, so far
as Main street is concerned. Now the
telephone company has line of poles on
both sides of Main street, and as the street
is very narrow, they are very much IN the
way.
Keep out the flies by using wire screens
for your doors and windows. L. B. Fow-
Ter sells them.
The editor of this paper has written
many letters and taken much interest in
the depot matter, for We realized the
harm being done the business interests of
the town by having no freight warehouse.
We regret that the commission was
forced to take drastic action, but they
shonld have done so earlier. However,
if we get the right sort of building and
platforms and get it in sixty days, we will
be satisfied.
Swimming pool will be opened from

telephones are now being furnished, and
when the wires on Main street are taken
down and q cable strung in their place,
the company will be in position to give
still better service.
You can sing 'shoo fly, don't bother

By reference to the letters published in
another column it will be seen that the
railroad commission has issued an order
to the Southern Railway authorities re-
ouiring them to complete & new freight
depot at Bamberg in go days from the date
of the order. This means that the rail-
road must complete the building by the
25th of July. We are glad the order has
been issued, and We presume the work
will now be commenced and pushed. We
have been without depot for many
months, the old one being destroyed by
fire early in October of last year.
