THORNTON NOT GUILTY

The trial of James Thornton,
charged with violation of the COM
pulsory school attendance law, held
yesterday afternoon resulted in a
verdict of not guilty. The trial was
by jury, of which W. D. Wilson was
foreman, and was held by Magi-
strate Gilbert in the court house.
Quite number of people were pre-
sent and some half dozen witnesses
for both the State and the defendant
were examined. The testimony of
practically every witness showed
that Mr.. Thornton was not guilty of
willful neglect in not sending his son
to school and that the defendant had
used encouragement of various
kinds to compel the boy to attend
school but to no avail. The jury evil
IDENTIFY held that the father had done
all in his power to meet the provis-
ions of the compulsory attendance
act and was not guilty of willful
neglect or refusal to comply with the
law.
However, it is an unfortunate
case, in that the father admitted on
the witness stand that since Christ
mas he. had given it up as a bad job,
was making no effort to send the
boy to school. The lad, about
twelve years of age, is still out of
school and the last resort has failed
to accomplish the intent of the law
to wipe out illiteracy in South Caro-
lima.

have been crying to tell che people
of this county, namely; top-soiled
roads are not good roads in the sense
that they are permanent; they cut
into holes and ruts just as do other
dirt roads; they must be constantly
repaired and at great expense IT
they are to be kept in good shape. 1t
was stated at the other bond election
that it would cost 81, 900 per mile to
top-soil our roads. Capt. Smyth says
these roads should be repaired at
least every two months in order to
keep them in proper shape and be-
cause of the fact that top-soil is
harder and harder to get, the ex-
pense of keeping up the roads grows
more and more expensive. Unless we
are ready and willing now to vote a
large tax to keep up these roads in
addition to the taxes necessary to
pay the bonds and interest, we warn
the people for the last time that
half million dollars are about to be
spent where it will do little good and
where there will be little to show for
it in three years from today.
The report of the grand jury
shows too the truth of our state
ments to the people before, that in
the building and up-keep of the top
soilded roads so much time is taken
and so much money spent, that there
is none left to make care of the cross
country rdads. In August, in Green
vile County, it is stated that the
mail routes of that county are al
most impossible. We have no such
in this county. Are we
worse off than the people in Green
vile County,. And the report states
the money for maintenance is out,
and there is none left with which to !
repair the cross country roads and
none for the top-soiled roads. And so
it will be in Abbeville county.
The people of this county are
about to make a large investment in !
about which they know
little, and which in our judgment !
promises practically nothing in the
way of results as compared with the
enormous debt about to be saddled
on the people of the county. If the
people would protect themselves
while they may they should be at
the ballot box Saturday to cast their
ballots against this bond issue.
