The roads have gotten a little bet
ter: but they are nothing to brag on
The farmers are all working for dear
life and but few of them are to be
seen off their farms these days.
There is a rumor to the effect that
the Carolina and North Western will
put on it's trains Nos. and again.
We have no confirmation of the ru-
NOR; but the people along the line
of the road will be gratified to have 1t
so.
The Jury commissioners will onspeXt
Tuesday draw thirty-six petit jurors
to serve during the first week Of the
approaching term of the circuit court,
which convenes on April 13, and twelve
grand jurors to serve during the year
There will be only two weeks Of court
this spring. Judge Watts will preside
Citizens of this country do not yet
seem to realize that it comes with
poor taste for them to abuse and crit
icise their public officials. If a public
official is incompetent, it is the voter
who is responsible. If public official
is dishonest, it is the voter who is
responsible There is no sense in try
ing to saddle the blame upon the Off
'cial

PITIABLE indeed is the case of poor
old man Zimmerman of Columbia, who
was committed to the penitentiary last
Wednesday to serve three years for
forgery. That we have sympathy for
this old man we shall not deny. If he
had fought his case and been convict
ed, we would have had no sympathy
We would have only entertained a
feeling of higher respect for the al
legged majesty of the law Of South Car
olna. AS it is, we have little in the
case other than that the state is able
to punish such of its high-un criminals
as have left honor sufficient to make
them acknowledge their faults. For
that poor Mr. Zimmerman is entitled
to due credit. But what commentary
do we have here on the cases Of the
thousands of high-up malefactors
thieves and murderers who are con-
stantly being eXonerated by due pro-
cess Of law.

to do this, and, therefore, when the
receivers make demand for the dis
pensary funds, the commissioner
what remains OF the commission
will be advised not to comply with the
demand. Application to. attach the
receivers for. contempt Will then be
made, and If the receivers are i'm
prisOned for contempt In refusing To
comply with the orders OF Judge
Pritchard, the matter can be brought
before the Federal supreme court on
writ of habeas corpus. But the
more pleasant method will be to ar
que before Judge Pritchard a motion
to vacate his order in view Of the de-
cision Of the state supreme court. The
attorneys for the state are confident
that the decisions support their view
that the United States supreme court
will sustain the state supreme court
in the Interpretation of the state con-
stitutiOn and statutes, and that the
law as quoted from Asheville Is not
correct

- Columbia special of March II to
Charlotte Observer: There was gen.
uine sorrow and regret expressed

Charlotte Observer, Wednesday: Mr..
L. IT. Nichols. manager of the Carolina
and northwestern railway. was late
ly in the city and told of considerable
development on his road north Of Le-
noir. He looks for splendid summer
travel this year. A turnpike has been
constructed from Edgemont to Carey's
Flats and passenger trains will be run
throughout the summer to EdgemOnt
Edgemont Is about sixteen miles from
Blowing Rock and the new turnpike
will give good connections. Another
turnpike is being built from Edgemont
to Linville. Edgemont will therefore
be an important terminal for the
mountain country, and when both
these turnpikes are completed, will
have good carriage connections to all
points on top of the mountains.

New MILEAGE Books.

Columbia Record: The new form
of mileage books on the Southern
railway, Atlantic Coast Line, Seaboard
Air Line and about twenty-five other
railroads Of the south will go on sale
April l. Speaking Of this Col. r. w.
Hunt, assistant general passenger
agent of the Southern, said the new
books would make very little, If any
difference, to the people travelling in
this territory They will be inter-
changeable with all the railroads OPP
Grated in the southeast About twen-
ty-five railroads have entered the
agreement About twice that many
roads accepted the present inter-
changeable 1000 mile book. After
April l the railroads will sell straight
tickets at 2a cents per mile. They
will sell 1000 and 2,000-mile books at
$40 and $40, respectively. Both will
be interchangeable, but the former
will be restricted to the use OF one
person and the latter may be used by
several members Of firm. There
will also be placed on sale family
mileage book of 500 miles to be used
by members of a family and restricted
to use on the railroad issuing it, and
also to travel within the state. The
present form Of 1,000-mile books,
which sells at q cents mile, or S25,
will be continued on sale for the reas-
on that it will be interchangeable on
a larger number Of lines than have
gone into the agreement on the other
mileage books. A very radical change
in the use of mileage for railroad
travel will become operative on the
first of the coming month. No mile
age of any description will be accepted
by conductors on trains. Holders of
mileage will be required to apply at
ticket offices for tickets. The ticket
agent will issue a ticket to the desti-
nation named, and will tear off the
mileage to pay for it. Or in other
words, each mile coupon in a book
will have the purchasing power of
two cents, or two and a half cents as
the case may be, dependent upon the
form Of book used. and the coupons
will be used as cash in purchasing a
ticket. Baggage checks VIII not De
issued on mileage, but solely on tick

Bio Automobile Race.

Rock Hill Record: Quite a number
Of our men and boys waited on the
streets until rather late Tuesday night,
after it was learned that one Of the
automobiles which was making the
race from Philadelphia to Savannah
was headed this way and would pass
through the city that night. 1t left
Charlotte at o'clock and should have
reached here about $50, but on ac-
count Of accidents they did not reach
here until about twelve or little Ia
ter. Mr.. c. B. McFadden accompan-
led them from here to Columbia and
they reached that place about 10
o'clock The other machine, we are
informed, went by the way. Of Raleigh
and down by Cheraw and reached CO.
lumbia considerably ahead Of the one
that passed this way, and reports from
Augusta stated that it was in that city
yesterday morning. and no doubt 1t
reached Savannah very much ahead.

Baseball In Rock Hill.

Rock Hill Record: Mr.. w. B. Will
son, returned from the meeting of the
State League Baseball association at
Sumter, Wednesday afternoon, and
reports a pretty lively meeting. Ches-
ter, Orangeburg, Sumter, Camden and
Rock Hill were there to put up the
required bond, but Florence, who had
thrown out such bold assertions that
they would go in if Camden would,
failed to show up with the goods. 1t
is thought possible that they may get
busy and come in yet. 1t is now def
nitely settled that Gunter will manage
Rock Hills team, and it is presumed
that Sumter will make desperate ef-
fort to hand back the lemon that she
received from Rock Hill, as the fans
here feel that Sumter will be the
hardest proposition that they will
have to go up against in the league,
as they say Orangeburg is too slow.
