The Lexington dispatch. [volume] (Lexington, South Carolina) 1870-1917, 1910-02-23

Recently we had occasion to 60
over the road between here and 90
lumbia in an automobile. We went
over this same road few months
ago, at which time it was in fine con-
dition. There were but few rough
places in the road then, although it
had been several months since the
chaingang had completed the gap.
How different now! There are many
washout places; the bitches are filling
up; in short, the roadbed is anything
but smoothe. When we stop to con-
slider how much valuable time has
been spent by the chaingang on this
piece of road and how much it has
cost the county to give the people a
good, creditable highway to the capt.
tol of the State, and then to see the
seeming lack of appreciation on the
part of the people, is enough to cause
every good roads advocate to speak
out in disgust.
With little work now and then,
this road could be kept up to a very
high state of excellency. Unless the
people tai more interest in the keep
ing up of the roads it seems to US that
it is most unreasonable to expect the
supervisor to put them in order.
What's the use? There are plenty
sections of the county that will keep
the roads up after the supervisor has
had the changing to lay the founda-
tion. Those sections realize the bene-
fit OF good roads; they realize that it
means more to them in dollars and
cents, not to speak of the pleasure and
comfort they bring, than anything
the county has ever undertaken. We
hope that the people will show their
appreciation and keep up the Angus
ia road leading to the capitol of the
state.

CIRCULATION 1895.
Our Courts a Farce.

The courts of Lexington for some
reason are fast becoming farce. The
dockets, on the civil side of the court,
are very much congested, many very
important cases being carried over
from time to time. This condition of
affairs has existed for long time,
and it was hoped and confidently ex-
pected that the greater number OF the
eases would be disposed of during the
term which unexpectedly came to q
close on last Friday. What is the
trouble, why does this coma: tion Of af-
fairs continue to exist?
During the first week court was In
session only two days, during which
time two cases were erased from the
calendar. The attorneys announced
that the roster lad been completed,
and there was nothing left for the pre-
siding judge to do but adjourn. Jur-
ors had been drawn for the week and
they were ready, willing and anxious
to perform their duty, realizing that
it was one of the highest privileges
accorded man under our form OF gov
erument.
Last week four and one-half days
were consumed, the so called roster
running aground on Friday at IL
O'Clock. The second week jurors
were equally as willing to work the
remainder of the week as were the
members of the first weeks jury.
So, then, it cannot be said that it was
the fault of the jurors that the court
was forced to adjourn.
The jury that had been drawn for
this week had made all arrangements
to come to the court house when they
received the announcement that their
services would not be needed. Only
seven out of the more than half hun
dred cases on the dockets were tried.
Now, in all seriousness, what is the
need to have any court at all If the
cases are not to be tried? What is the
need Of having jurors drawn and the
county put to the expense of summon
ing them here if their services are not
