Henrietta Bryson died Feb. 5. 1908.
Dearest sister, thou hast left us,
And thy loss we deeply feel,
But it is God who has taken you,
And He can all our sorrow heal
A voice we love is still,
A chair is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filed.
You are gone dear sister, but not for
gotten,
Nor never shall you be,
As long as life remains
l shall always think of thee.
By her sister, Ida M. Bryson.

The people of the Dutch Fork will
soon have free bridge to the county
seat, The people of the entire county
will help pay for this bridge, and the
work will soon comm snce as some OF
the material is now on the ground.
1t matters not whether the Fork goes
to Richland or not, she will have her
portion of the debt to pay the same as
the other part of the county. And
this is as it should be. The Dispatch
has always contended for unity among
our people and that we should help
bear each others burdens. The peo-
pie of this side of the river have al
ways been generous to the citizens on
the other side. They are going to
help pay for this bridge without a
kick. The people on this side Of the
river have always supported the can
didates from the Fork literally, and
rightly 80. Would the people Of the
Fork be treating the people on this
side fair should they now annex to
Richland This is a question for
them to answer. Supervisor Langford
is going to move the gang to the Fork
in a very short while and, in addition
to building a good highway from
Broad River Bridge to the Newberry
line, he will work the other roads in
the Fork. But if all of the Fork is
going to Richland would it be fair
and right for the supervisor to build
the roads in the Fork ? We are
merely mentioning these matters to
show the conditions as they exist.
It is known fact that our county
has been far behind her sister counties
in good roads, because the people
would not stand for taxes for this pur'
pose, while other counties did, and
now they are clammoring for improve
ments that cost money, no matter
where you 60 or stay, 80 we fail to
see the reason for the unrest and dis
satisfaction with Lexington when you
are partly to blame yourselves. And
we repeat, that our people can have
all the improvements and benefits
that they enjoy in Richland or New
berry, and perhaps with less burden
to the people. Have patience, please
and you will get roads, &c., equal to
any in the state.

Fine Field Of Corn.

It was the Editors privilege to 60
over a part of the asylum farm while
in Columbia Oh Saturday. This farm
is situated on the car line leading out
from Columbia to Colonial Heights.
We have never seen a finer field of
corn than is here to be found, and GER
tainly reflects credit on the manage
ment. We wish that every farmer in
the country could take look at this
piece of corn. It would be a great
benefit to them, as it shows conclu-
sively what can be done, when good
management is used. :, .,
We noted especially the rapid
growth of the Colonial Heights, the
Northeastern suburban town of Co.
lumbia. Like all parts of the city
it is growing fast and ere long
the Heights with excellent roads and
streets, will be part of the spreading
city sure enough.

The County Executive Committee
will meet OH the first Monday in July
to arrange the schedule for the county
campaign. During the last few years
in making up this schedule the court
house has been left out entirely. This
year we beiieve that there should be a
meeting held at the county seat, for
the reason that more votes are polled
here than at any other point in the
county, and the people have right to
hear the views of the different candl-
dates in the field. And unless cam
paign is set for Lexington there will
be many voters who will not have the
opportunity of hearing the candidates
express themselves unless they 60 to
the other places, which would make it
mist incouvenient. By all means
give the court house people an oppor-
tunity to see and hear the candidates.

Ii all the criticism they can make
of Congressman Lever is his vote on
the lumber plank in the tariff bill he
has easy sailing. If that proposition
was presented to the voters we be-
lieve it would come nearer defeating
some of those who voted opposite to
MIR. Lever than defeating Mr.. Lever.
That is one proposition ON which Mr..
Lever was entirely colrect.-Newter-
ry Herald and News.
:. This is we'll said. Lever. can be de-
pended upon tc act in his votes on all
propositions in the interest of the gen.
eral pnblic and we have an idea that
when he is heard on the stump in re-
spect to his tariff record, those few
who are seeking to defeat him will
wish they hud been able to find some
thilg else to attack in his record of

Hard On Old Counties.

= Every week a ''new county move
ment' springs up. The worst feature
of it is the piling up Of taxes on the
old counties involved, the majority OF
the people therein not even being al
lowed to vote in these elections. Un-
der the present law it seems that the
expense of holding the new county
elections, no matter how often they
come, must be borne by the OLD coun-
ty. This law ought to be changed

You are right, brother. The law
should be changed, and every candi-
