COME TO MARLBORO.
Pes Dee Advocate.

For many years Dillon has been
trying to get new county cut off
from the upper part of Marion.
The old county people have
been fighting them at every step,
and thus far have prevented the
formation of the new county.
Several elections have been held,
and whole sale fraud has been
charged. Al the branches of the
state government, legislative, exc
cutive and judicial, have been ap-
pealed to for help in the fight for
or against the new county.
a few months ago two survey
ors, L. c. Handy. representing
the proposed new county, and E.
N. Beatty, representing the old
county, made survey and re-
ported that they founG. 4O7 .23
square miles in the proposed new
county, and Ola square miles in
the old part of the county. They
submitted a map showing these
areas.
The old county people We're not
satisfied with this, and they en-
ployed another surveyor, Howard
Wiswall, Jr., of Charles ton, to
test the survey. He reported that
the map showed the county 10 be
half mile wider than it really is,
and that there was not enough
territory to get 400 square miles
for the new county and leave 500
in the old.
This information was presented
to Gov. Ansel, and he appointed
Prof. F. NJ. Colcock, of the Uni
versity of South Carolina, to test
the surveys. Prof Colcock has
not made his report, but the Mar
ion Star says that his measure
ments Tailed practically with Mr..
Wiswall's. If this be true, then
the new county will be impossible
unless they can get a piece of Marl-
boro t. make up the deficiency in
area. 1t is very improbable that
two thirds of the voters in any
section of this county would vote
to go in TO the new county.
We believe that there ought to
be new county in the upper part
of Marion. but if they cannot get
it, the people in the northern end
of the county should do the next
best thing, come to Marlboro.
The northern corner of Marion
county is about 35 miles from
Marion court house, and about IS
miles from Bennettsville. The
people in that section naturally
belong to Marlboro. If the pre-
sent effort to get the new county
fail, they should at once begin
the movement to be transferred to
this county, and thus forever end
the fight down there.
A line run from the present
southern corner of this county,
at Pee Dee river, to about where
the Coast Line railroad crosses
the state line, near Hamer, would
about equally divide the distance
between Marion and Bennetts-
vile, and would transfer about
100 square miles of as fine Sec
ton as there is in the route from
Marion to Marlboro.
Gentlemen of upper Maricn, the
latch string is hanging out. You
are cordially invited to come over
and join us. You will then be in
the best county in the world, and
you will help to make it SO.
The new railroads from Ben
nettsyille to Brownsville, and from
McColl to Dillon, will make il
easier for you to reach Bennetts-
vile than Marion by rail, and
our superior county roads make #

GETTING THE LEMON HABIT. +"
Is Said TINT Many Tipplers are Using
Lemon Extract as Substitute for
Local Option Whiskey.

The old saying that "there's no great
loss without some gain" has again been
demonstrated. The loss to druggists OF
the county by reason Of the new law,
which has curtailed the sale OF liquor
has resulted ia increased sales Of lemon
extract. 1t is said that many of the
old-time "tipplers" who find it somewhat
difficult to get their "wes nip" have re-
sorted to the use Of the extract, and that
many OF them find it an excellent substi
tute Some even declare it to be supe-
rior to "local option whiskey." 1t is re.
ported that for several days there has
been au Extract Famine" in Paw Paw,
and that the dealers have all had to
triple their orders for extracts. There
is probability that the "lemon habit"
will become quite popular. We are un-
able to give a comprehensive idea OF the
effects of the new drink, but firmly be
lieve that the "lemon breath" will be a
decided Improvement over the old-time
distllery smell

AUNT TO KEEP THE CHILD
Opinion Filed Dismissine Habeas Cor
pus Petition in the Robinson Chase
Case Heard in April.

Judge DesVoignes has filed an opinion
in the Van Buren, county circuit court,
dismisslng the petition in the Robinson
Chase babeas corpus proceedings. This
case was heard at the April term of
court aud attracted considerable atten-
tion among the people of Lawrence town
ship where the parties reside.
The petition was filed by Henry Rob-
inson and sought to regain possession of
his daughter Mildred, girl six years of
age, and who had hved with her uncle
and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs L. d. Chase
since the death of her mother nearly
four years ago. The respondents claim
ed that they took the girl with the un-
derstanding that they were to keep and
care for her as their owG. Robinson,
however was remarked last January,
and alleged that the daughter rightfully
belonged to him, and that he was then
able to care for her, and brought the
above mentioned habeas corpus proceed
ings to again secure possession of his
child A case Of this kind is a particu-
larly hard case ID decide and do justice
TO all the parties concerned. The opin-
ion filed is a comprehensive one, and
shows that Judge DesVoignes was mind
full OF the Importance OF the case, and
had given it careful consideration.
We quote from the opinion as fol-
lows:
81 have personally investigated the
home now enjoyed and upon the record
here. find the petitioner has a comfort
able dwelling and lot in Benton Harbor,
the title being in petitioner and his wife
jointly; that he is man Of industry and
good habits, but must Of nece ssity de
pend upon his daily employment, he be-
ing carpenter, to maintain family Of
four dependant upon him. The home
now enjoyed by Mildred Is an ideal ole.
all centered there. Her present and her
future welfare are guaranteed. The
child needs female care and guidance Of
that patient and watchful nature, which
is better insured by the natural affect
ions of an aunt, than by the inexper-
fenced efforts of father, or the sense of
duty Of the second wife. There is no
reason to doubt that the stepmother
would do oil that duty might demand
of her in that relation, but all dIsinter-
ested persons would involuntarily feel
that there would be some risk to the in
fant in the change OF surroundings"
Attorney l. w. Riford Of Benton Har-
Dor looked after Petitioners interest,
aud Henry T.. Chase Deputy Attorney
General, and brother Of respondent, took
care OF the defense.
