Dear Editor,
When this first came to my attention, I thought that it was a Solid Waste Recycling Center to be located here in the 4th district area and who would really care because it would produce about 20 jobs. We began to research and try and discover exactly what they were talking about. It concerns all of Appling County, because right now Landfills or DUMPS are blocked in Appling County. Moreover, the recycling center is only 60 percent of what we are talking about with the other 40 percent being materials to be placed in a dump on the site.

Thankful for honesty
Dear Editor and citizens of Baxley and Appling County,
I just want to give thanks to a wonderful person there. On Dec. 29 after shopping at Wal-Mart I took my purchases to my car and apparently left my purse in the shopping cart in the parking lot.

We need to change. God didn’t plan it this way. It is our entire fault; why we can’t move ahead and leave the past behind us, forget race, creed, color and gender. [Full Story »]

The election process
Dear Editor,
Someone once said, “Bad government is better than no government”. The Bible says, paraphrasing, … “and everyman did that which was right in his own eyes”, so I BELIEVE THE FIRST QUOTE IS PROBABLY RIGHT. Running for a seat in congress in the state of South Carolina in 1990, applications were sent to me from three separate PACS, with a letter advising me to fill out the enclosed applications and send them in, if they liked what I said, I would be forwarded $5,000.00 for a total of $15,000.00!
