E. H. AULL, EDITO'R. TUESDAY, APRIL 18, 1904. Newberrians Abroad. While in Pittsburg. Pa.. a few days ago we had the pleasure of meeting a former Newberrian, Mr. C. P. Greneker. who holds an important position on the Pittsburg Gazette. one of the leading papers of that city. He is doing well. It is always a pleasure to us to meet our Newber ry boys and to know that they are holding their positions with credit to themselves. In Washington, where we spent two days, we met Mr. F. Werber. Mr. James F.'Kilgore, and Mrs. Sallie F. goag, all Newberry people and all holding good positions in the treas ury department. They have been in Washington for a good many years, but we still count. them as Newber rians. We were to go out to dinner with Mr. Werber. but on account of some business engagements could -not keep the appointment, greatly to our regret. Mrs. Boag is one of the money counters and the head of her department says she is an e.ipert. Our two senators were absent, Mr. Tillman on account of sickness and Mr. Latimer maiing good roads speeches. We saw Congressmen Aiken, Lever, Johnson, Finley and Scarborough. Messrs. Aiken and Lever were especially kind and took care of the innocent abroad. * * * A good many of the senators anf representatives had gone home. It is expected that congress will ad journ very soon. As to Cleveland The News- and Courier quotes rhe Herald and News as being "somewhat surprised at the views expressed by Mr. August Kohn in the News and Courier several days ago that there is a strong sentimeht in South Caro iina for the nomination of Grover Cleveland as the democratic candi date 'for preisdent." andl further says: "It so happens that this par tiCnlar correspondent of the News and Courier is not very often mis taken in taking the public tempera ture on public questions, and we are inclined to believe that he has not overestimated the Cleveland senti ment among the thoughtful and intel ligent people of our state. We heartily agree with the News and. Courier that Mr. August Kohn is one of the fairest and most accur ate newspaper men in the state, but irt. this instance we believe he is mis taken. The people of South Carolna, in common with democrats in the other states of the union, realize full well how futile it would be to seek to give assy irian'a third term, and we be lieve, as we have heretofore stated, theat their choice for the nomination is Judge Parker, of New. York, and we have arrived at this conclusion a_fter talkitig with many people in different parts of the state. Mr. August Kohn, in; arriving at the.conclusion which he has stated, could not have felt the pulse of the great mass of democrats in South Carolina with whom, after all, rests th- -sentiment of the state .on public qtions. -S The most important duty of a state in the position which South Carolina occupies is to seek to give the nomination to the best man. For South Carolina is going to support the nomin;ee, whoever, he may be. The News and Courier recently assert ed that it would support Judge Parker if nominated. We had no. doubt of this all the while. But it could do seeking to secure Judge Parker s nomination. There is no donbt that he is the most available man. as we can see it. Prqfit in Poultry. The folowing i; fron the Southern Farm Magazine: "As pointers of possibilities Of pro nts in the poultry buisines. the Flor ida Times-Union says that in Volusia county. Florida. there were last year 41.802 chickens. 989 turkeys. 522 ducks and 351 geese, and the number of eggs produced was 389.190 dozen, valued at $6o.614. One ranch. of i,ooo hens pro duced io.ooo dozen eggs, all of which were sold under contract at 30 cents a dozen this year round. One man in Hillsboro county shipped during Feb ruary 4,o2o dozen eggs, which netted him $987.55. Still, the Times-Union points out thousands of dozens of! eggs shipped into Florida every month. There are many states in the country not producing eggs equal to the demand or equal to their pos sibilities in the hen line." What is done in Florida can he done here. We may not be able to sell egg's at 30 cents a dozen the year round but there is always a market for chickens and eggs, and at a fair: price. The people of South Carolina have. within the past year, built four monu ments to Andrew Carnegie. They are in the shape of libraries to which he makes a contribution on condi tions which make it necessary for you to perpetuate his memory. One has recently been established at Win throp college, at Rock Hill. Union had to get an act passed by the legis lature in order to get her library. We hope it means that the people are going to read more and read good books. We would prefer, how ever, to see them build their own li braries than build monuments to Mr. Carnegie. The many friends in this county of Congresstran Wyatt Aiken will hear with sorrow of the affliction which has befallen him in the death of his wife, and will sympathize with him in the sorrow which is his. A dispatch from Washington states that Senator Tillman has re turned to his home at Edgefield on account of his health and probably will not be able to attend congress any more this session and in that event Crum's nomination will again fail of confirmation and he will be nominated again at the next session.
