NEWS AND HERALD. PU L1IHED SEXI-WEEKLT, -BY WINNSBORO PRINTING CO. J. FRANK FOOSHE, - - - EDITo TERMS, IN ADVANCE: One Year,........................SL50 Six Month&................. .5 WINNSBORG. S. C. Tuesday,March 5. - --- 1901 Congress has adjourned. The meeting of the Democratic club called for Friday night should be well attended. McKinley has entered upon his second term as president of the Ubited States of America and the isles of the sea. Governor-McSweeney has not yet reached that anti-free-pass bill. It matters not how long he is in getting to it, so he vetoes it. Your interest in the municipal affairs of your town should be great enough for you to attend the meeting of the Demiocratic club cailed for Friday night. The issue before the club meet ing Friday night will be to de termine how the town nomination sball be made, by primary or by club. Come out and let it be known-where you stand. Candidates for senatorial and gubernatorial honors next year are being fully announced. Some of these will surely be left, es pecially John L. McLaurin should he aspire again to so small an honor as the United States Sena tor. Inasmuch as so much is being written about Sherman in Co lumbia,, we have turned aside from the publishing of the Eder ington papers in this week's issue to publish an account of Sherman in Winnsboro. Another similar account will appear in Friday's paper. These are valuable papers that should find interested read ers oughout the county. own~ ~~2 A&1. GN e bl Azeeprimary, is, a question th is going to come before the pe pie at the coming club meetir As already stated we are who] opposed to this plan on t principle that the policemen a responaible to the council and this body should be responsib - The people hold the council i sponsible for the manner of F * lice regalations and on this t count the selection of policem should be vested with them. T * tendency rightly these days is place more power in the han - of the chief executives of a c< poration and hold them mc strictly to account for their a tions. This is well demonstrat in the selection of teachers in t large school systems. A few ye~ ago the elections were by t patrons, then by the trustees, t now practically by the superi > tendents who themselves a elected by the trustees, but w: in turn nominate their own teac ing corps, in a way that is pr~ tically an election. Educational Notes. The State Summer School 'a be held from June the 20th July 17th. This is just a mon *earlier than last summer-a ve desirable thing on the part of t teachers, who find' it more cc venient to attend just at the cc of'their schools than in midsmn mer. Two county superintendents education have died since Janue 1st-Supt. Threat of Chesterfie .and Supt. Ballenger of Sparta burg. Both were young men some experience in teaching. T former had just entered upon t duties of his office, the latter h never-been well enongh to quali Mr. Hanna has been eppointed s the successor of the former. T appointment was made by t State Bc ,rd of Education, w] are authorized by law torfill vacancies in the office of tI county superintendent of educ tion. The successor to the lati has not yet been appointed. Mr. Verner of Columbia w' has the past year been condim ing a private school in Columl has found it necessary to secu additional help, for another ye: This simply goes to show that I the right men there is still a fi opportunity in the way of priva schools, which are as essential necessary to-day a befo the days of graded schools. - A larger and better' il is to be buift on the.Wofford College campus to take the plade of the Celumni Halso receiutlburned. The department of superintendA ence of the National Educational Association-held its annual meet ing in Chicago the last week in, February. . Chicago was selected as the next meeting place -ind G. R. Glenn, State superitendent' of education of 'Georgig was chosen as the next presided. The Columbia, Female College has recently secured a very fine collection of the - minerals and fauna of South Carolina. The collection was secured .from Mr. Nnnnamuker of Irmo who has takan great pains in..collecting the same. The new $10,000 domitory for Furman University is- now as sured. The money is nearly all subscribed, and the friends of the institution are rallying to Presi dent Montague's support in this effort to advance the institution. Capt. Mortimer Glover a teacher of large experience has opened a private school in Orangeburg. The Greenville Female College is raising a fund of $10,000 for enlargements and improvements. The amount is. almost secured and the friends of the institutior. In response to Mr. McMahan's circular letter requesting advance membershaips to the Southern Educatioual Association - Prof; Witherow of the Mt. Zion. Insti tuto has sent over thirty names. This is a fine record for Winns boro and is a good evidence that it still holds a prominent pl'ace for its influence in educational matters. If other towns in --the State do as Well, the necessary: 500 names wi.ll be easily obtaiiied. Converse College and the Presbyterian College for Women will again hold their musical festivals in May.
