One of the most notable facts
connected with e. country news
paper of today is the large in
crease in the amount of advertis-
ing of local business houses. The
change has taken place gradually.
and has been marked especially
during the past year or so. 1t is
significant, and an inquiry as to
the cause of it is of great profit,
not only to those in the newspa-
per business, but to every busi-
ness man and citizen of our town
as we'll. The change, in brief.
means the local merchants have
found it necessary to call attention
to their goods because of the i'm
mdnse competition they face, the
most deadly element of which is
that from the great stores of the
large cities. These great estab-
ishments advertise their wares
most lavishly. and the metropoli-
tan newspapers which contain
their advertisements are destribut-
ed over the country, some one pa
per of which enters nearly every
home. The result is that these
metropolitan establishments have
built UP an immense mail trade.
In our town, and indeed most of
the towns hereabouts, there Is no
occasion for this out-of-town buy
ing. The duty of citizens in the
matter is plain, and ifother things
are equal support should be given
local dealers. Our merchants
have invested their capital, have
erected buildings, which are the
pride of the city, and have estab-
lished concerns which are almost
metropolitan In character. They
have built up our little city, and
it is only fair return that they
have the city's trade; to turn our
trade otherwise, even in the line

Looks Like Scheme to
Defeat New County Prop.
osition.

Woodbury. Township cannot be
tackled OH to Horny county and
some other means will have to be
adopted to cut Marion's territory
down to less than 900 square miles.
1t has been known for some time
that certain parties were interes-
ted in a movement to tack Wood
bury Township on to Horny coun-
ty. The object was to reduce
Marion's area to less than 900
square miles and thus block the
movement to create a new county
out of the upper portion of Marion.
The new county said nothing be-
cause they knew Gov. Ansel would
not lend himself to any such
scheme after the commissioners
had been appointed to survey Mar
ion county for the purpose of FORM
ing new county. When the Pc
tition was presented the Governor
promptly turned it down and the
petitioners appealed to the Su-
preme Court. The Governor was
sustained and the old county advo-
Gates lose. The proceedings were
brought by A. ]. Brown and J. J.
Williams and others" When
the petition was presented ths
governor held that commissioners
would have to be appointed to de-
termine the boundary line as in
the case of new county elections.
The advocates of annexation held
that the governor erred. Follow
ing is the courts decision:
After reading the petition here
in, the court is of the opinion that
rule to show cause should not issue
Even if the governc.- is subject to
our writ of mandamr,s, a question

AEsel. 76 S. c. 4O6. 1t appears
from the petition that the act
sought to be compelled is not a
plain ministerial duty. but involves
the exercise of discretion. and is,
therefore. not compellable by
mandamus. See section $50, civil
code, and State, exrel. Reese VS.

lngs, during which Justice Fisk testi-
fled that a bond of $500 had been Of
fered but that he had not accepted II
for the reason that he thought II in
sufficient. County Judge Dryer. be-
fore whom the habeas corpus action
was heard, refused TO discharge
Strittmatter and remanded him TO
custody. Notice of an appeal was

During the hearing or the ease It

ployment and visible mean Of sup
port. He had not been guilty of any

make such a thing possible in the
most scathing language, characterizing
IL as infamous and despotic. In view
Of the fact that Strlttmatter would
have TO work on the roads for many
months before the fine had been work
ed off. his position Is not o very
pleasant one. There is hope. however
that the court OF criminal appeals viii
