plan the sidewalks or streets will not
be paved.
By granting authority through the
signing Of this petition to hold an
election, freeholders merely give to
those of their fellow citizens who wish
to pave their sidewalks or streets the
opportunity Of doing so under the
most equitable, democratic, and fair
street paving method known to mod.
ern municipal government.
The long terms and easy payments
given under the abutting property
plan to those who pay one-third of
the cost appeals to hundreds of prop
erty owners who realize that under
no other plan will they have their

not for many years under present

SUMTER COUNTY FALL SHOW.
Chamber of Commerce Will Take
Lead I'm Organizing the Sumter
County Poultry Association-What
Body Has Done.

This commercial organization was
behind the movement for the Sumter
Truckers Association. the Sumter.
Live Stock Association, the Sumter To-
bacco Warehouse Company, the Sum-
ter Curb Market, and is working hard
to have Sumter made one of the COL
lecting and shipping points for the
four cattle districts to be established
In South Carolina by the United States
Department Of Agriculture.
If the poultry association is formed
and sufficient interest is manifested
the Chamber Of Commerce will take
steps towards putting on big poultry
exhibit in this city next fall.
In connection with this proposed
poultry exhibit it is also proposed to
have a combination agricultural and
made in Sumter" exhibit at the
Farmers Tobacco Warehouse.
This warehouse is 10Ox2OO feet and
Will house q very creditable exhibition
of the agricultural, manufacturing.
and domestic science activities of
Sumtere county.
The live stock association will be
asked to participate also as there is
ample room near the tobacco ware
house for live stock exhibit. The
nucleus Of a county fair will be estab-
lished by using the tobacco ware
house and the lots adjacent thereto
for the county exhibition or "expo-
sition' as our managing secretary pre-
fers to call it.
The Boys Corn. and the Girls To-
mato Clubs will be called upon to take
part, and the domestic science depart-
ments Of the city and rural schools of
Sumter county will be requested to
too. Altogether speaking
the proposed Sumter County EXPO.

look better, If it materializes.

THE STREET PAVING PETITIONS.
Meeting With Success I'm Circulation
Among Free Holders.


Secretary Reardon reports splendid
progress with the petition he is cir
culating for freeholders to sign to or
der an election to decide the issue Of
$225,00O.0O bonds for paving the
streets and sidewalks under the abut-
ting property taxation plan.
The freeholders are signing very
willingly. there being practically no
opposition to the bond issue among
the freeholders, that is comparing the
number who have signed TO the ve,y
small number who have declined 70
a'ilN their signatures
Judging from expressions OF ap-
proval from the hundreds Of voters
approached who are also freeholders
and from expressions from many
voters who are not real estate own
ers, the secretary believes that the
opposed bond issue will be carried at
the special election by an overwhelm-
ing majority amounting to practical
ly unanimous vote in favor of the
abutting taxation plan of paving.
1t is very evident that the free
holders and voters. and taxpayers
generally are very anxious to have
the streets and sidewalks paved as
soon as possible.
Many think that the paving Of
Sumters streets and sidewalks will
have great tendency to increase
the progress and prosperity of Sum-
ter. and that the lack of decent side. =.
walks in so many streets and por-
tions of streets is considerable draw
back to Sumter's progress.
| From n sanitary point of view the
paving Of Sumter's streets will mean
much also. Muddy. foul smelling
streets are not conducive to good
health. When the streets are pa:ed
the drainage will be greatly improv-
ed, the value of the property on paw
ed streets will necessarily be greater
| anu tiic ScllSIdl appearance OI sumter
will be wonderfully improved upon
All Of these benefits appeal very much
to the average Sumter taxpayer and
voter.
The signing of the petition to order
an election on the abutting propert,
taxation plan of street paving does no,
bind the signers to pave or be in favor
of having their streets paved.
The petition merely authorizes the
qualified voters, by majority vot,
at the special election to say wheth
er those property owners who wan
their streets and sidewalks paved un.
der this abutting property taxation
plan-shall have the right to do so.
There is absolutely nothing com
pulsory brought about by signing thi
petition.
Unless a ma ajority Of the propert,
owners on any block or entire stree
request their street or sidewalk pave,
under the abutting property taxation
