The newspapers are making them^lves almost ridiculous in the way they allow these X-dispensarv fellows to use up their space. Many colnmns^f^tulf have been pub lished iPthe last few weeks and yet the thing goes on. If the papers would rigidly exclude this sort of thing from their columns, it would ' be better for them and the reading public. If the dispensary writers were paying by the line they wouldn't be so long-winded. There have been several replies to Mr. Outzs, but we ' - must say he is still ahead. We expected some of his charges to fall to the ground, but there is still enough uncontradicted to make out a strong case. * * * The day will come when the business men of Bamberg will see their business - grow smaller and the wealth of the town decrease, unless they increase the enterprises of the town.1 i,This is an age pf progress; ? > 11 ~i- ^~ tnere is do sucn imng as sutuumg still; a town is either improving or retrograding. This city is no exx _ ception to the rule, and the people here who are to be benefitted by new industries and enterprises should give some serious thought to the question of whetherJBamberg is on the up-grade or not. This is a question that, like Bauqno's ghost, "will hot down," and forces attention* BaiJroads are being built all around us, and new towns are springing up and robbing us of business. At one time Bamberg shipped almost twice as many bales of cotton as she does now. If we had some money-making enterprises in the town we could afford to be independent of the number of bales of cotton that came or went, Barnwell Quarterly Conference.

Forty-third Annual Session of the Association, at St. John's Baptist Church, This Association met in its forty;hird annual session at St. John's Baptist church on Thursday,October L9th, and continued its meetings until Sunday. It is one of the best Associations in the State. The history of the denomination in its territory would make interesting readj o ing. It comprises 38 churches, mainly in Barnwell and Bamberg counties, with an aggregate membership of 35 hundred persons. The oldest church in the Association? Healing Springs?was organized in 1772 Rt .Inlin's /?hnrr>7i wns orjoi JL 11fcJl. VV4JA4 U V" *? . o nized in 1S30. It is situated in the lower edge of Bamberg county, twenty miles from Bamberg and twenty from Varnville on the Port Royal road beyond. Varnville is the home of Pastor E. W. Peeples, of the St. John's church, and ou the Saturday before each third Sunday Bro. Peeples is accustomed to drive a pair of diligent little ponies from Varnville to St. John's that lie may minister to the church. I myself, have made the trip with him. The people ai St. John's are some of the best tc be found anywhere. The membership is about one hundred and fifty. It is a lovely grove in which the building stands; the church itself is a neat white-painted structure, but uo neater than the homes of the goodly people. Pastor E. W. Peeples is highly admired by the bretheren at St, John's as well as at Carter's Ford. Hampton, Branson and his othei churches. Bro. Peeples is a courteous and cultured Christian minis ter, one of the most versatile men 1 ever knew, and the handsomesl s\? lii'e Aim T avflr nicf' preauuci ui mo Viv> ***%.* The introductory sermon was preached at twelve o'clock by Rev A. P. Turner, who took as his text John 9; 4, and delivered an interest jing aDd practical sermon on Chris tian" activity. The reason for the lateness ol I the hour ft meeting is the fact tha ! some of the delegates have a lon< distance to come. 1 presume som< came a? much as forty miles. I After the sermon the delegate were enrolled. The attendance wa; good; nearly every church was rep resented, and some of the more dis tant churches had present as man; as four or five members to represen I them. The officers were elected, as fol lows: W. D. Rice, moderator; W D. McMillau, clerk; J. A. Jenkins treasurer?the same as last year, an< an excellent lot of officers they are Pastor E. W. Peeples spoke som fitting words of welcome, in a hu morous strain. Senator S, G. May field, who was a delegate, respondet for the Association. After some talk about certain re ligious publications and some rou tine work, i he Association adjonrne< for the day. On Friday morning, after devo tional exercises, the Rev. W. E Johfison read the report on educa tinn. Tf- was a cogent and forcibl presentation of facts about the sjs tern of education which prevails ij this State. As I ha ye consented b take it for publication in The Cour ier columns, I will not^indertake b present an outline for it here. Bro. Johnson followed his repor with a strong speech. It soon be came apparent that tjiis was one o the most live subjects which th Association would discuss. After Bro. Johnson, I deliveret myself of an address for Formal University. After which a son^ was sung fo rest the bretheren am sisters, and Bro. Win. Havnswortl ;spoke. He demurred at facts in th< report, not doubting them, bu doubting the wisdom of . presenting them. He drew a distinction be tween his duty as a member of i Christian denomination and a citi zen. Prof. F. N, K. Bailey followed ii an address in which he contendec that all which pertained to the edu cation of the children of Baptis people was pertinent in a Baptis Association. Senator S. G-. Mayfield spoke. Hi granted that much that the repor contained was true, but cla;ins tha the U. S. government gives a gooc proportion of money for the susten ance of one of the State schools. Mr Mayfield .continued, and made i forceful speech, in which hesuppor ted the management of the Stat< schools, while expressing a warm re gard for the denominational institu tions. Bro. Johnson made a warm speed of rebuttal of some data used bj Bro. Mayfield. Prof. Bailey spok* and brought out the fact that if the Clemson guano tax was turned intc the common schools it would help ten times as many farmers as al present. Our esteemed Baptist brother, Congressman W. J. Talbert, was called out and made a capital, humorous speech, in which a most interesting feature was the adroitness with which he walked the wire on the general subject of education, without falling against either th: Scylla or the Charybdis of the premises. He closed with a strong and potent plea for a better support of our common schools. Col. Talbert is a magnificent man; to know him is to be proud of the people who elected him. Bro. A. R. Patterson, a probable candidate for governor in the next primary, demanded the re-reading of the report. It was read by Chairman Johnson, of the committee of education. Mr. Patterson, who is also a member of the board of trustees of Clemson, spoke. He said that if a Baptist wished to educate his hoy for the ministry lie should send him to Furraan; if for business to Clemson. So it appears that very intelligent gentlemen still think it is a theological college we are running at Greenville. Lengthy and spirited discussion was kept up for quite a while, the whole time consumed being about four houre. Matters were finally brought to a focus by Senator S. G. May Held moving to amend by striking out a clause of the report. The . clause was as follows: "Let public funds, with these large appropriations, be put into common schools where they justly belong, and let all colleges, whether State or private, be supported by the voluntary contributions and patronage of their frieuds. This is nothing more than simple justice, and those which cannot live with an arrangement like this should go out of the business -.I.-/. tn KoffeiV /MIPS " aim vtivw. The proposition to strike out this clause was discussed at some length. Chairman Johnson defending it and Senator May field and Patterson condemning it. On the vote.being put it was found that Chairman John son was sustained by a majority of at least three to one. If the "'ad- j ministration" people will remember that Barnwell is one of the strong. est reform counties, and that the Baptists are a large majority of the Christian people there, they may now . begin to open their eyes. And if ? they would make a practice of go , iug among the people to find what . they want instead of tying them> selves to the utterances of some I newspaper which almost never re( presents the people, but assumes the . role of lord and dictator to church and State and the public at large, it ! would be better for all parties con; cerned. As a matter of fact the passage ! of the above resolution may be taking matters too far; it is, no doubt, ti-no that. t hp State should sustain the plant and mechanical [apparatus needed at each of the numerous 1 State schools, but the people will not long consent to remain a party to the free tuition game which is be[ ing played, and if "administration" i. will not correct, "administration" will happen on a day of reckoning, I , trow. The sentiment of Barnwell Association is that of the people wherever I go. [ State Missions was next discussed. Dr. Bailey spoke well, and made a collection, p Many other matters remained to (. come up on Saturday, lut we spent y Saturday at the Colleton Associal tion. On Sunday the missionary sermon was to be preached by Kev. s W. E. Johnson, fc s Pastor T. P. Lide represented the . Home, Foreign, and Sunday-school Boards. His many friends will re7 gret to know that the health of this j. faithful and devoted minister is not vigorous. The report of Colporter-pastor W. G. Britton showed that he had ,* sold about 3,500 books for about J $500 during the past year. This is ^ a handsome record. The story of g the life of Bro. Britton is full of interest, and his present work, while less romantic, is not blessed and sjucI cessful. As h colporter the Stkte does not furnish his superior.. I hope to tell our readers more of him . later. ] At Bamberk, en route to the Association, Col, Talbert and I -were entertained at the parsonage and i Dr. and Prof. Bailey were enter' tained at Dr. Black's. Col. Talbert e and I sampled the <4pounding" which the appreciative Baptists had 1 a few days before bestowed upon 0 Pastor W. E, Johnson. We were charmed with the sample and Bro. 5 Johnson was decorated by an enduring smile, at the memory of the fat vor received, The next morning Col. T. J. ? Counts very kindly put his team at e the disposal of Col. Talbert and myself, and in it we journeyed to the 1 Association, twenty miles away, j along with Sheriff Hunter and Bro, y Johnson. The sheriff "had us." J Col. Counts has our thanks for the j nice turnout The Colonel was once g a member of the State Senate. He ? is a gentleman of quick discernment, 7 large knowledge of men and scho3 lastic learning, and as thorougha going a Baptist as one ever meets.
