We had the pleasure of meeting
and greeting our old friend, Col. u.
b. O'Neall Holloway, who was on. our
streets shaking hands with his friends
and making new ones, also taking sub
scriptions for the Southern Farmer
We saw him capture savage and
scalp him much to his delight. This
IS good farm paper and every far
mer IN Newberry and in the state of
South Carolina ought to read it.
Write the Col. for "a copy if you
| haven't seen it and see what n good
paper he gets out. ~
We note that the legislature APP
pointed commission to build IL new
court house. Now really, Mr.. Editor,
do we need thisq Is not the present
court house ample for MI our needs9
And then, too, Mr.. Editor, arc the
people not going to be given an OPP
portunity to vote on this and say if
the people want it? $4,000 is quite
Il good sum. Will we be taxed for
this amount without the people hav-
ing any say at all. So far rs we are
concerned we are like. the Sage of An
',lcrson we are "agin it." until wa
can see more reason for a new, one
than now appears. Say, friend Chips,
what 10 you think of this taxing the
people needlessly? Speak up, old boy,
/ don't be "skeered.
