.. Indignation Meeting.
The Dispatch received this morning
?too late for publicatioD||this week?
a c >py of tbe resolution* adopted at
the indignation meeting held at Ckapin
on last Saturday. We will publish
the same next week.
Whynotcallit the Columbia-Lexington-Newberry-Greenville
highway?
fc '
We admire the governor's forgiving
spirit, but pity hi9 judgment.
"His Fraudalency," is the latest
name given Governor Blease by Thos.
B. Felder, the Atlanta attorney.
V
It begins to look like South Carolina
i9 9onn to be the "laughing stock" of
the nation.
I ' , ~
Good roads is the slogan, and no
_ connty io the State is making greater
progress in the building of roads than
Lexington. Let the good work continue.
?
"Whatever else may be said of him
he is a Christian, and has shown that
heiiba man with a soul." Thus pleads
Noijon W. Brooker, of Columbia, in a
lengthy article in defense of the governor
iu the News and Courier of Monday.
ThU article was evidently written
before the governor's alleged remarks
to the chief justice of the State
Supreme court on Saturday night.
*
Now is th t ime for everybody to be
gin workiiu . or a greater county fair. !
TheLexi;? jq. County Fair has hi- !
ways stood at the head of county
fairs, a .1 .bisa duty we owe to ourselves
i aeep it there. There wjill be j
many t improvements made during the
next months in the way of buildin?
, etc., and the management should
receive the support and co-operation
of the people of the entire county.
It is gratifying to learn that the Columbia-Newberry-Greenville
highway
is to come by Lexington. That this
route will be chosen there seems to be !
but little doubt. Col. Elbert H. Aull, j
, of Newberry, who is taking a yery active
interest in the matter, stated
I
while here cn Friday that this is by
far the best and most feasible ronte.
This highway will mean much to this
county. It cannot help but create
more interest in the development of
all our roads, and that is what is needed.
Anything that tends to arouse
the people to the importance of better
highways will redowu to the county's
lasting good.
The proposed highway will run
through the town cf Chapin by way
of the new steel bridge at Wyse's
Ferry. Col. Aull stated that this road
is now in excellent condition, and was
warm in his praise of the good work
done by the chaingang at the new
Steel bridge.
Many Pardons Granted.
Gov. Blease continues 10 me his
* pardoning power lretly. Four parscions
were given convicts on Saturday
..and two on Monday. Among those
.pardoned on Saturday was W. O. Carpenter,
who killed Preston Yonce, a
young white man in Edgefield county
" many years ago and who was sent* nc.ed
by Judge Norton to serve the remainder
of his life in the State penitentiary.
The crime for which Carpenter was
eonvicted was ons of the most brutal
in the annals of the State, young
Yonce being an exceptionally quiet
and harmless boy.

Barytes in Paint*
There is endles3 discussion about ba- j
ryte9 in paint. Perhaps tnis bettles ,
the question.
Two houses exactly alike at Delhi,
N. Y; the owner of both is Mr. N.
Avery. One was recently painted
Devoe; the other with a barycts paint;
Same painter did both jobs; his name
is George Gilbert.
One cost $27; the other The

150 Persons Perish
In New York Fire.
One hundred and fifty persons, nine teuths
of tbem girls, perished in a fire
which destroyed the building in which
W3s located the Triangle Shirtwaist
Company.
Grief-stricken relatives were frantic
in their efforts to locate their loved
onea Many of the girls jumped from
the windows of the ninth story and
were crasbad to fragments on the
pavement below.
