m- |ww etna E. II. AUIX, KDITOR. Entered at the Costottice at Newberry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Tuesday, .Inly li 1, lOOH. Cleanliness is not only next to godliness, but it conduces to healthfulness. Hotter to apply a littlo hit of the preventive than to jeopardize the health and life of those near and dear to you. The streets need cleaning. The sidewalks need cleaning. The premises and allies need cleaning. In fact almost the entire city needs a cleaning and then needs to he kept clean. If some curbing is not put along the sidewalks in many places the paved sidewalks will undermine from the washing rains. Fn many places this should have attention now. What has hecome of the civic association? (let in hehind the city council and the health authorities. Our streets and sidewalks are in a fearful condition as to neatness and cleanliness. Pretty paved sidewalks covered with dirt and clay are not as nice or comfortable as the old dirt sidewalks. Senator B. Ii. Tillman was reelected as a member of the national democratic committee from this State at the national democratic convention at Denver last week. Anderson lias shipped her first car load of peaches to the northern market'. There is a section of country in lie- slot." hills of So '.) running aloi.u ;i ridge lhat rarely mi-.-'es a peach crop and if some attention were given the industry the growing and shipping of peaches could be made profitable by the farmers of Newberry county. P.viilcnily the editor of the Pickens Setinel-.lournal is of the opinion that the people of Pickens are interested in his movements and business. He slates with no uncertain empha;> why i' * n- ?.n a b';^itie?s tin to Ninety Six. Mr. T. K. Waring, editor of the Charleston Post, was not nominated as the running mate of Mr. Bryan, but he is on the committee to notify Mr. Kern. Col. Tlios. K. Brantley is on tlu> committee to notify Mr. Bryan. 11 will he remembered that some years ago a learned sanitarian in this town gave it as his professional opinion that, while cow-yards might he unpleasant, tliev were not unhealthy. ? News and Courier While ihis may be true of the cow and some sat isfad ion we would be pleased to have the professional opinion of the learned sanitarian on the subject of horse stables and horse lots. When the convention failed to demand speeches from Senator Frank B. (Jury and General Wilie Jones, it missed (lie opportunities of its life. ? News and Courier. ''I am going to listen to (lie candidates when they o ?iie and vote for the best man." Thus spoke a very intelligent farmer yesterday. It may be the canvass is not doing much good and it is possible that a man may not be able to cover the whole ground in the time allotted. But the fact that the voters will he Drought face to face with I lie candidates and that the opportunity is offered for the voters to see the men they vote for. is a concession.?Greenville News. That is the proper way to do. It is too often the case, however, that the voter eansiders the qualifications of the candidate as of the least importance and votes are east for good men hut many times men who are not fitted for the positions to which they aspire. Tn the campaign which begins in this county today the voters should examine the various candidates and when voting time comes east their ballots for those who are best fitted for an intelligent and efficient discharge of the duties of the office to which they aspire.

Mr. Editor: Many read the folloWng editorial in The Herald and "Jews wit 11 surprise, regret and niorti'ication: "It seems to us that the new court louse should not he used for serving nnches or for public gatherings. Phe old court house could bo used for hese political meetings. We have a lice building and should not have it ibused.'' The ladies of Xewtjcrrv refused the j iso of the new court house! Ts there my thing loo new, too nice, too costly, < 0 beautiful lo lay al the reel of our ronton ? Wo say nol. Our homes, our hurchos, are clean and nice, and, inlond of soilin<> (lie courl house, their >rosetice (here would have cleansed ltd purified il.

The aroma of their presnce would have floated through the thole building and lofl on our hearts memory to carry into (lie future as 0 how pleasant the bttildintr did 50k once. Another picture.

I prefer the first picture as the! >ss dosocratinn of the two. I differ from my friend the editor 1 I he Herald and News as to refits- ! tir the Indies the 1,-0 of the court-! ottse.

Hut the etTort f the ladies to raise a fund for a lott'iinenl to General Loo moots their ordial approval, and that their rouesi should have boon pleasantly ranted and nol refused is the opin>n of more than one. Veteran. I he above is from last issue of the >bsorver. We do not know who ''Vet 'an is. He could have had his say 11 The Herald and News if he had doired or asked for it. Wo regret he is "mortified.'' We j ad tit?thini!" lo do with refnsinir the', itdios the use of the court house. In ' act wo understand I hey had secured t.

Wo re ready to continrto in that work. We do not think the court house ' hould he used for serving lunches, or linnet's. Wo said so. We are still f that opinion. We believe the lalies will agree with us. As to its beng abused by the negroes and those i'Iio "chaw" tobacco rs another mater but should not be permitted and t it is somebody is to blame.
