In Eenor;am.

The 15-year-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Joe Glover departed this life the
31st. day Of December, 1906. She had
gone to spend Christmas with her
grandfather and mother at Trenton,
S. c. While away pneumonia seized
her, and after few days, the Lord
took her to be with Him. Her re-
mains were brought back to her home
near CASTOR, and placed in the ceme-
terry at Sandy Run Baptist church.
The funeral services were conducted
by the pastor, Rev. J. F. McGin, of
CASTOR. Annie was a member Of the
Sunday school at Sandy Run and a
faithful scholar. She was beautiful,
bright, obedient child, and much
loved by all that knew her. We cher
ish the hope that she shall some day
live again. In our weak and sinful
ways we know not how to serve the
Lord, but let\ps be willing to submit
to His holy and blessed will, to Him
that knoweth and doeth all things
well. Since God, in His wisdom, has
called her, hes parents and relatives
have lost an o6edient child and sister;
and our Sunday school one of its
most faithful little WORKERS 0. F.

A. TRANK LEVER DID r.
Big River Appropriation Secured by
Him.

"Fine business, getting Congress-
man Burton down here; yes, sir, fine
business it was. If he hadn't come
here and seen for himself just what
we need and can use to advantage,
we'd never have this good news to
crow overland let it be remembered,
too, that it was our own congressman,
A Frank Lever, who brought HIM"
These and other Of similar tenor
were the remarks this morning of a
Columbia business man, in discussing
the news, brought by press dispatches,
that the appropriation bill, which will
be favcrably reported to congress to-
day, carries an item Of Sl50,000 for
improving the Santee, Wateree and
Congaree rivers and the Estherville-
Minim creek canal" and for extend
ing the Improvement work on the
Congaree from Gervais street to Gran
bv. The sum named is all the more
gratifying, because it is just exactly
double the maximum amount recon-
mended for the work by the govern
ment engineer, Captain Howell. The
approval of this item by the commit
tee on rivers and harbors absolutely
insures the early completion of the
Improvement work that will put the
Congaree into navigable shape all the
way down to salt water.
There, seems no reason whatever
for doubling that this large appro-
priation is directly the result of Con-
gressman Burton's visit to Columbia
and his trip of inspection down the
river to Georgetown. He is chairman
of the committee on rivers and har-
bors and makes it a rule personally to
inspect every waterway for which
money is asked. He is SO well inform
ed and painstaking that the commit
tee is guided very largely by his ad-
vice. Certainly, Columbia could not
have secured the appropriation over
his disapproval.-Columbia Record,

In addition to the pride and distinc-

Street Improvement,

The condition of our streets the past
OF street improvement. The Business
Mems Club held special meeting one
night this week at which II was de-
cided to petition the Board of Alder
men to act in the matter. A town of
Farmington's Importance and prcIen-
sions ought to have good, substantial
streets, and it locks as II the only way
that this can be accomplished is to tax
the property holders along the streets,
10 proportion to their property front.
age, to sufficient amount 10 cover
the cost. Under the law the Board
of Aldermen has the authority 10 do
this, but has probably hesltated be-
cause Of the hardship it might work on
some of the property holders 10 meet
their proportion OF the tax. II the
board can get the consent and back
ing of the property holders it would
certainly act, and we believe It is the
purpose of the committee OF the Bust
ness Mems Club to try to get them
sufficiently interested to petition the
board TO 20 ahead with the work. An
estimate of the cost by the cubic yard
or running foot of the grading aud
paving or macadamizng, whichever
plan is considered the most practible
under existing conditions and the abIl-
ity of the property owners to pay,
should be made, and then If the work
is decided upon, let out by the board
on contract. Unless something Of this
kind is done, we are not likely to ever
have good streets, for the revenue de-
rived from ordinary city taxes will
never be sufficient, with the other mu-
nicipal expenses, to make good and
substantial streets that will stand the
traffic OF city like Pennington.
