Former Efforts Have Failed.

Many efforts have been made to bring
the largest conventions to this city. but
in nearly all cases these efforts have been
unsuccessful, because Of the fact that the
thTOngS could not be properly and COM
fOrtably housed during their meetings II
is to overcome this objection that the
erection Of an auditorium is proposed.
It was suggested that q more desirable
location for such a building could not be
secured than on North Main street. or on
South Temple street, between West TEN
pie and State streets, where properties for
the purpose might be secured. This lOca-
ton. it was pointed out. is the natural
center of interest to tourists and Stran-
gers, and that as such. il was the most
desirable location for such a building.
Suggestions were made that if audi
tOTiUm were built il could be made cen
ter Of attraction and interest for tourists,
and for local people as well with but lit
tie effort on the part of the public.
As a result Of the general discussion il
vas decided that a call would be issued
for a mass meeting to be held soon after
the business mems excursion, which Will
take place during the latter part Of the
month, when the ideas Of the public. with
regard to the proposition, might be de

The Legislature.

The legislature meets today and
as this is the second session Of the
regular term both branches will
lose no time in getting down to
business. There will be no officers
j to elect and the calender brought
over from last year will be taken
up at once.
: Everybody seems anxious to
| know just what will be attempted
in regard to the dispensary and it
seems to be the general opinion
that tie liquor question will con-
surne the greater part of the at
tention of our law makers for the
next few days.
! Conditions are somewhat chang
ed since the legislature adjourned
last February. Fourteen counties
hive voted for prohibition and the
dispensary investigating committee
has been at work and we suspect
that a great many of Our represen~
tatives would be glad to have some
wise man to tell them just where
they are at.
Then the tax question has been
nuchly discussed recently. A strong
effort is being made to have all
property returned at its actual val
ue.
If the dispensary remains the
state board of directors and a IL
ouor commission are to be elected.
The editor of The Herald and
News will be in Columbia during
the session and will try to keep the
readers of this paper posted as to
general legislation and also as to
the acts and doings of Our own
representatives.
We believe the time has. come
when the lien law should be re-
pealed and something should be
done to improve the, law as to farm
contracts. The repeal. of the lien
law viii have a good effect upon the
labor question.

It would be a good thing if the
legislature should provide for the
examination and licensing of pub
lie accountants. The employment
of outside professional examiners
and accountants to audit the books
of corporations is extending and if
there was a system of licensed &C
countants, stockholders. might pro-
vide for examinations and auditing
by one of ese.-Greenville News.
Better still the legislature should
provide for the appointment of two
or three expert accountants who
would be in the constant employ
ment of the state and whose duty
it should be to check up the ac-
counts of all public officials just as
the government of the United
States provides for the appointment
OF postof6ce inspectors and national
bank examiners, and not work until
suspicion rests upon all office that
it is short in its accounts. 1t would
be a protection to those who are en-
deavoring to discharge their official
duties honestly and terror and a
stay to those who might be inclined
to walk outside the right path.
There were several large short
ages in the state and county Offices
unearthed last year. With the
knowledge before them that were
liable to be checked up at any time
by an expert the situation in these
counties might be different today.
1t would be economy to employ
such expert men even at a good
salary.

BUILD ROADS.

Never have people been so able
as now to buy good things but the
time has not come when they should
buy things they do not need.
More than any other material
thing they need good roads. Good
roads are short roads to all kinds
of Improvement.
We wish the people OF this coun-
ty would build 40 miles of perna-
nent good roads across the county
this year. In that event they would
build more next year.
Taxation is the only way. We
are likely to have 'better times"
than we now have.-Laurens Ad-
vertiser.
Yes, if we could only get Our peo-
pie started to building good roads.
If we could only get Newberry
county to build a good nacadam
road between here and Prosperity,
distance of only seven miles and
change the location in a few places
so as to avoid so many railroad
crossings and build it this year we
would soon see a great change IN
everything in the way of roads in
this county. lust to- get a. start of
the right kind to see what it all
means and the rest would be easy.
Yes, by taxation. That is the only
equitable way. But this would be
tax which would be good invest
;nent with large dividends.
