IF ABBEVILLE WERE RoADLEsS

Were two or three highways built
in Abbeville County connecting the
town Of Abbeville with Greenwood,
Mccormick, and Anderson, wherein
would the Abbeville man residing ten
or Is miles from one of these roads
be benefited? That is the inquiry Of
the Abbeville Press and Banner.
Would the Press and Banner be
content if all the steam railroads ran
around, instead of through, Able
vile County? Do Abbeville men re-
siding ten miles from a steam rail
road derive no advantage from rail-
road transportation facilities?
Are the steam railroads worthless
to any man or to the average man Of
Abbeville County?
How much would the price Of Alb
beville cotton be affected if every
bale Of it had to be hauled 80 miles
to a railroad station?
Were a system of concrete high
ways to be constructed as planned,
Abbeville would have not less than
one forty-sixth of the total mileage,
and that would be nearer 40 or so
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1919-02-21

principal to be paid by somebody
else, which somebody would be the
taxpayers of the state.
The people in the city Of Able
Vile in addition to every conceivable
license tax, are now paying forty-one
mills in taxes for all purposes. We
see that there is a great fuss in Co.
lumbia, where the State is printed,
over the rate of taxation in that city,
it being stated by some that it will
take forty mills to pay the city ex-
penses alone, while there are sug-
gestions to put off the evil day by
levying only twenty-five mills for this
purpose land raising the balance of
the money by bond issue which
somebody else will be expected to
pay. In Atlanta the same question IS
up. All over the state in a little
while a wall will 20 up about the
heavy taxes which are to be collect
ed by the Federal Government. The
legislature now in session is being
asked to create new commissions,
and new government agencies, while
the demands of existing institutions
are greatly increased. From all of
which we begin to fear that the day
of private ownership of property is
rapidly passing, and that before
many years a man will hold property
in trust for the public, and that in
his hands it will be counted liabili-
ty rather than an asset.
In some places the heavy taxes al
ready forbid the investment of mon
ey in legitimate enterprises and the
time fast approaches, unless some
body calls halt, when no more
money will be for investment in the
industries which really build up a
community, but money will seek in
vestment under cover where it will
escape taxation altogether.

THE DIRT-DAUBERS VARIETY.

Some of the men about Abbeville
who are willing to see this county
assume an Indebtedness of million
dollars to connect the town of Abb
beville with Greenwood, Anderson
and Mccormick, by concrete roads,
have evidently forgotten that some
two years ago they were advising US
that the kind of roads to build was
of dirt-dauber variety. Native soil,
they told US, with thin covering OF
town ebert would do the job. When
we argued that the only roads which
would serve the purposes sought were
roads of permanent construction, and
that we were unable at that time to
build such roads on account of the
enormous expenses, they said we
were wrong, that the top-soil roads
were the only desirables, and that it
would be a waste of money to build
any other kind, when these roads
could be built at two thousand dol
lars per.
They filled up on city gasoline,
drove to Greenville, and swallowed
an Ottaray sandwich, drank a little
Paris Mountain dew, were put to
sleep by some of the Greenville
County Good Roads orators, rode
over "the finest ever" (while asleep
at the rate Of forty miles an hour,
and came home as the only qualified
experts on road building.
It seems now, however, that the
tune has taken a. turn. If the top
soil argument was sound, why do
these people now argue that we
should build roads costing twenty
thousand, dollars. per mile? If these
experts have been shown, within the
brief space Of two years, to be poor
advisers Of the people, why should
they not now keep silent?
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1919-02-21

miles than Is, which is The Press
and Banners guess. Moreover, it is
certain that the Abbeville roads
would so link with other county
roads that Abbeville would have
quick and cheap communication with
Columbia, Greenville, Spartanburg,
and Augusta, Ga.
A steam railroad is a highway linn
tied to operation by great compan-
les or the government on which only
their vehicles can travel. A paved
public road is highway over which
any mans vehicle can travel and up
on which operation is as cheap for
passengers and for certain kinds OF
freight as is that of the steam rail-
road companies.
Mr.. Hester, of Hesterville, Abbe-
Vile County, living ten miles from
steam railway and from paved
highway, would gain at least as rnuch
from the one as from the other.
Meanwhile, road building in Alb
beville would not cease with the con-
struction of a State highway system.
That would be the important begin
ming. The counties would proceed
Systematically and rapidly, we Think
to build other roads leading into it.
We suppose that Abbeville County
could and would get along somehow
with a system of cow-paths, such as
the forefathers of the Abbevillians
had a century and half ago. AS
related to the gasoline propelled We
hicle. the roads of Abbeville and of
the other counties are no better to-
day than the cow-paths were to- the
ox-carts of former time. However,
the jolting to pieces of an ox-cart
over woodland trail caused the loss
of s25, not of $500 or $4,000, in
two or three years..-The State.

WANT LEBEDOUR FREE
German Soviet Demands That Leader

Berlin, April 10.-The resolution
adopted at, the opening session of the
soviet congress here peremptoriIy de-
manding the release of George Lede-
bour, the independent Socialist leader
arrested during the Spartaean out
break has placed the 4Prussian and
National government in an awkward
predica meat. The demand was based
upon the fact that Herr Ledebodr had
been elected a delegate to the congress
and the contention that he should be
permitted to exercise his duties in that
connection. $50 -
The chairman of the congress ruled
favorablye to the independents on a
preliminary motion and a turmoil re-
suited in. which the violence, Of the
recriminations hurled from the left by
the radicals caused the ma joffty So

sufficient to insure the necessary votes

wildly applauded and the officials of

forthwith to address messages .toe-the
National and Prussians goyernm ents,

confined. apprising them of the wishes
of the soviet delegates.
The members of the government are
booked to leave for Weimar early
Wednesday morning. The Prussian

to setting Ledebour free, but the In

blandly informed hespresiding Off

Attorney General Looks Into Prose-

Washington, April 10.-Assistant
Attorney General Todd today is CIV
ing personal attention to the request
Of Governor Allen of Kansas for prose-
cution of the Southern Cotton Grow
ers' association under the Sherman
antitrust law.
Allen charged the cotton growers
have combined to reduce the Acreage
of thissyear's crop and boost the price.
His request for prosecution is. one
of many similar requests which have
been received recently, department Of
ficiaIs said.
They Cannot Be Reached.
Belief that the cotton growers can
not be reached under the Sherman
law is expressed here by officials. who
point out that the law specifically ex-
empts associations of farmers in two
Instances One mentions farmers
associations in connection with labor
unions, which also are exempted when
not organized for profits. 81
This other clause states that no part
of the annual appropriate for adj
nifnistration of the Sherman law
sshan be extended for the prosecution
of producers of farm products and
associations of farmers who cooperate
and organize in an effort to, and for
the purpose of obtaining and main
tanning a fair and reasonable price for
their products"
The departments policy toward the
cotton growers has not yet been de-
ternined. it was made clear.
