party comi?ts <>f prtiiais enough members
to till the Federal ollic s m tin* state,
and the politicians of the Hemocratic party
and the Republican parly seem t?? t<e vicing
witixach other as to who can pour out the
\ ilest vials of wrath on theortice-j-eckers?the
Independents. To add to tUi> confusion o:
Southern radicals it is annuiimed that President
Harrison will have a regard 'or the respectability
atul titness of applicants for appointments.
This lets out the meat tnax^oi
"publicans" and sinners who need fat oitiee?
hn.ilv nnit Imve nothiii" else Ihi'.n their
fidelity to the grand old party, aril tlicls*
blind hatred of decency, to recomme:;d them.
Southern negroes and ' In.ii p.-n u u;"' wtilli
men will likely he disappointed in many insianees.
They will nr> ilout.t lie pa:n.-d to
hear that President. llarri*on, i; is *tn?;i_Is .

of the government by having ivj !v?e:ilniiv?

It seems that ail the negro servants em
plo.vees about the White House have lnci
dismissed, and that the 1'resident has iillcd
their places l?y while peop'e. Some of '.lit si
colored servants had their place* for manj
years, and through successive Presidential
terms.
It really seems as if the (iovermcnt. did no:
intend to restore the old methods which in
ivted before i'levelauds election.

GREENWOOD ITEMS.
A Careful Reporter Gives Xotes and
Dot* of nil That Is Going On.
Gkeexwooi>, S. C., April S, 1SS9.
A light frost fell here Sunday night.
Vegetation is putling out and the trees are
assuming their summer garb.
Col. G. W. Trotter, well known here is back
to spend tlie summer. He says there is no
place like Greenwood. He has been, buying
cotton this season at Belton and adjacent
towns.
Our efficient council seems determined to
spare no pains in making Greenwood one of
the prettiest and most attractive places in the
up country. We learn that they propose
opening up some new streets. Suppose they
tie a draw string around the town and draw
it nearer together. This thought is merely
suggestive and might not be of any value.
Mr. and Mrs. John Barkesdale moved in
their beautiful new residence. The house Is
one of beauty and does credit to the task of
Mr. and Mrs. Barkesdale as well as an ornament
to the town.

J. Y. Jones was In his Ideal modern Sodom
and Gomorrah a few days since looking after
law breakers. Ho should not tarry long In
this polluted city lest he meet the ill fate of
Mrs. Lot, but should flee Into the mountains
and there drink of the pure waters which
llow for the righteous as did Mr. Lot. However
we think if Mr. Jones knew more of us
lie would not regard us in such a light of horror
and sin.
The openings cf the fashionable millinery
emporiums of Messrs. J. K. Durst & Co., under
Mrs. Payne and that of Miss Laura Johnson
was largely attended and the ladies feasted
their wondering eyes on the lovely bonnets,
hats, and general paraphenalla of women
ornaments. Your humble scribe was
invited to inspect one of theso edeus and as
we stood with eyes protending like door
knobs perfcntls' bewildered in tills whirl pool
??f fashionable bonnets, hats, gauzes, laces,
ribbons, veiling, oriental, relics and what not
and something else that we cannot Just now
call to mind. And as we stood, our eyes taking
in-llie beauty and wondering at the genr-ral
make ups which lay scattered around
which adds to the beauty of our ladies. We
could only exclaim as we were shown the different
th'.ngs. "Alnt. that purty." We have
made up a perfect catalogue of compliinenlary
exclamations, but in our bewilderment
we only remembered the above and now we
arc not certain we remembered that. But we
would recommend both places to the fashion

Mrs. James Dendy spent several days In

"qual richness, variety, and interest.
A paper which is sure to cause wido discussion
is "The Prevention of Railroad Strikes,"
by Charles Francis Adarns, President of the
I'nion L'acinc. Tl;e cuthpr has held this remarkable
paper unpublished for more than
t wo years, thinking that the time was not
ripe for it. Events of the past year, especially
the U. B, and o. strike, have convinced
hiiu that o deep-seated trouble exists in the
relations of railroad employees to railroad
companies; and that his paper may be a
timely contribution to an important discussion.
Tie advocates the division of employ<>(
s into a temporary and permanent service,
the former being probationary and a step to
promotion. Tiie permanent service should
have certain rights and privileges which
would cause it to be eagerly sought?such as
freedom from fear of unjust dismissal; a
tribunal where the employee can be heard in
Iiis own defence; tiio possibility 01 rising to
any position ; insurance and pension funds;
md nit active voice in the management of the
road through a representative system resultinn
in a council of employees who would act
through a small executive committee. The

Columbia Register.
The Abbeville Press and Banner gives bcvernl
reasons for its belief that the graded
school cannot be a permanent success.
AgHlnst any theory that may be advanced on
this subject may be arrayed the numerous
facts furnished by the experience of graded
schools all over the United .States?we might
say all over the world. As long as these Institutions
continue their splendid work in
behalf of popular education nnd the elevation
of the masses, it would seem idle to inquire
why the graded system itself is or may
boa "failure."

elusion we do not know but we arc certain
that tlie Press and Banner is wofully mistaken.
All the graded schools that wo know of or
ever heard of have been anything else hut
failures. They have been splendid successes.
This Is proven by the general desire everywhere
expressed for them, by communities
which wish to increase their educational
facilities. The /Ve.?s ami Maimer surely has
had little experience in such schools and
less opportunities of observation in the matter
when it is led to make such a statement.
Thebestjand wisest educators ofthe country
have given the graded system llieir approval
and experience has abundantly vcretlcrt the
feasibility and success of the plan.
We can point to no better example of this
than our own Mount Zlon.

Mv Dkar siii!'?Pli>!ise sioeenL mv thanks
for your editorial in to-(lay's Press and Vanner
in reply to my letter. I have rend the article
with ureal interest, and your views are
in exact accord with those L have long held in
regard to the machine education which the
craded schools are trying to give to the children.
I am fast coming to the conclusion
that the graded school system is a gigantic
humbug and is giving very poor return for
the money that is spent upon them. Besides,
the superintendents, who do none of the
work, demand from four to six times the salary
of the teachers and this seems to nic to be
an outrage upon the public purse.
I read the Press ana Banner regularly and
with much pleasure. I was in your Utile city

The outlook tor small grain crops are good.
Our merchants are doing a good business this

think there will lie no difficulty in getting up

also.

EDUCATIONAL MEETING.
A Ringini; Appenl for Christina Education
bv Hev. John C. Kllgo
Financial JAjfent or WofTord ColIcrc?a
handsome Contribution.
Last Sunday beug a fifth Sundy,
wts given over to the cause of Christian
Education, and the Methodist
church was crowded to hear -an address
by Rev. John p. Kilgo, who was
appointed at the Jast session of the
South Carolina Conference as financial
agent to raise an additional endowment
fund of ?50,000 for Wofford College.
After devotional exercises and the
reading of the 19th Psalm, the] eloquent
speaker addressed an attentive
audience for nearly an hour.
He premised his remarks by saying
that education was a christian and not
a secular subject, hence he had no
hesitancy in devoting the Sabbath to
that work.
He announced as his subject "Christian
Education Generally, and Wofford
College Particularly."
He said :
The question of profit underlies all
undertakings. A man can he persuaded
to make an investment only as
the dividend is made evident. The
! question of henetit underlies the question
of education.
He then said that the first benefit of
education is, that it is the safeguard of
liberty. The love of freedom is as deep
as our nature, and God has fortified it
against the encroachments of even
the Godhead. In this alone is the dignity
of man, and for its preservation
men have made fearful sacrifices. An
ambition to be free is universal. Freedom
is the gift of intelligence. Ignorance
alone will go under the lash, and
bear the burdens of life. You cannot
make a pack-horse of intelligence.
God has never permitted slavery beyond
an intelligence worthy of "liberty
But this is the lowest form of slavery.
Freedom of thought is as grand
possibility as freedom of muscle. We
love to boast of free thought, the gift
our government, but free thought is
not the gift of government, it is the
gift of intelligence. The right to
think is a question^of'the power to
think. No man has a right to think
fr*r lnmcnlf until lio lina tho nniuor fr\
think. It is pitiable to sec a man a
slave to other's thoughts and plans in
the management of his own affairs, because
of his ignorance.
Ignorance enslaves a man morally
as well as intellectually. He is a creature
of prejudice and is governed by
personal considerations in all his plans.
He can never rise above the dictates of
passion and prejudice. Every parent
who neglects the education ot his sons
and daughters sells them into slavery.
You may save your dollars, but you
cur-?e your children.
Mr. Kilgo said that education is the
safeguard of personal respect.
He said that a man would respect
himself and the rights of his fellow
creatures as he rose to au appreciation
of his possibilities. He showed that
the .'esthetic characteristic oi the age
is the product of education. It lifts a
man out of thG realms of mere necessity
into the realms of beauty and comforts,
Ho llioii called attention to the deimands
of the day, and assured the
young of his congregation that the
world to-day would confer no favors
upon ignorance, and exhorted them to
Jit themselves for life before they came
I into it to battle for self.
| The speaker then byefly reviewed
J the history of Wofl'ord College and
jspoke in the highest terms of the work
! it had done in the past and showed by
comparison that it was equal to any
icollogein the land and superior to
i many with much greater pretensions.
It is the property of the Methodist
church and as such should be supported
by them, and endowed suHlelently
to put the faculty above embarrassment.
He paid a glowing tribute to the faculty
who have stood by the college
j when flattering o'1'eis have been made
to alenwlinrn Tin villi tlio
morals of the college weiv as good as
that of any institution, male or female,
in the land.
After the address the inevitable
Methodist collection was taken up,
which, with the supplemental collections
taken privately, amounted to
SoOl.SO, in cash and notes.
! Mr. Kilgo preached at. Tranquil in
the afternoon and at the Methodist
church here at night. lie spent Monday
in looking after the interest, of the
college.
The authorities "builtled wiser than
they know" when Mr. Kilgo was appointed
to his present responsible position.
He is the right man in the
I right place and with his intelligent
jand persistent work Woflbrd will be
endowed.
Tuk "womax's qukstion" is m*akingat

:or tliive years that there lias been ft decided
rising against conventional education?a
custom so long established
that "leaving the convent" has become
in French a synonym for finishing a
j girl's education. At this moment the
; public is occupied with the attempts
of women to enter the learned professions.
The Parisians were startled a
few weeks ago by the application of :i

in law for admission to the bar,
which the court denied. More recent'

I when graduating at the Medical
[School, on the practice of medicine by
i women. She had been a very brilliant
J student, and her thesis was very able,
and was listened to with great interest
by a crowded audience. Dr. Charcot,
f med fur experiments in hypnotism,
answered her, denying most of hei
conclusions, but complimented her
highly, in thoroughly French fashion,
| on he?- beauty. The public is, howI
> ver, apparently on iter side. Dr.
| Charcot complained that women doc!
tors did not want to serve in the lower
{grades of tlic profession, that they
j would lint doctor quietly in country
