I. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as second class matter. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4. The general election is next Tues day. The national campaign has been qt-iet and without special inci dent. The leaders of both the great parties claim the vitory. No one knows what the result of the ballot will be. Parker of course will carry the south and that gives him a good start but he needs S8 votes more. In order to win he must carry New York. New Jersey, Connecticut Maryland. West Virginia and In diana or Illinois. The south as we said is safe for the democrats but there should be a full vote polled. Every democrat should go to the polls and cast his ballot. We give a good deal of space to day to the ceremonies incident to the dedication of the new building at Newberry college. We make no apologies for it. Newberry college is one of the institutions of this com munity and not only of the town, but of the entire county. This event marks an epoch in the history of the college. We are all rejoiced at the prosperity which has attended the in stitution for the last few years and we hope this is only the beginning of the good things which the future holds in store. We are glad at the honor and the recognition which were given to Smeltzer and Holland and Cromer during the exercises of Mon, d... evening and we would not de tract one whit from it, but there were others who labored and sacrificed with these men and who helped them bring the college through the crisis Their services should not be forgot fen. We could not help thinklng of 'Arrington whose devotion to the col lege and whose ability and versatility as a teacher many of the earlier grad uates recall. He spent the best years of his life: in the service of the college and a more efficient teacher never filled a chair in the institution. Then here is Capt. Pifer of our own town, who labored tf .'re for several years. Let us honor the men at the head, but not forget the men who stood behind the guns. The citizens of the town seem to take'very little interest in the affairs of the town. A citizens meeting wvas called for Tuesday night to considei the question of ihominating a mayor and aldermen. There were only aLrout a dozen who attended the meet ing. Those who were present- d& c'ded to postpone the meeting and try to. have another tonight. So an 'other citiz6ns meeting is called for tonight. Everybody expects the can didates to be nominated in a primary but there should at least be suffcient interest taken to get a few of the business men to attend these meetings. Th'e selection of a mayor and al dermen is an important matter. If the few who attend these meetings would decide to nominate a ticket and have no primary then we sus pect som'e .one would kick. They have the.power:to do that very thing. The meeting is called to decide the question of how nominations are to be made, wvhether by citizens meet ing or primary and if by the latter to adopt riisi to gaiyein it. Let there be a fug Mete.tXisg: tonight. The man who takes charge of a church paper takes' charge of trou bles of which the average nman knows nothing: but if he is true to God and his vows, he will make himself a power for good. But he will often be misunderstood and severely crit icised, and those whom he has loved and trusted, most will furnish critics and fault fmnders of whom he .,never dreamed .in the other spheres of life. -Exchange. The man who takes charge of any' sort of paper and does his duty faith fully takes charge of trouble. He may expect to be criticized and mis understood. But a man who is not criticized and misunderstood in the work of journalism may count his ef forts as failures and his work of lit tle accounlt. He is obliged to pub ish something at some time or other which some one will think should not be publisnedand fo tread on toe 'thia will try...to make it,. unpleasant for him, but the only course is to pur sue the pith of duty and to tell the truth and be fair and just to every one. It is inuch -more pleasant -to commend than to condemn or cen sure. The editor would always rath er say nice things than those which are unpleasant. But sometimes the path duty lies elsewhere and he must follow it if he would maintain his own self-respect. You may do a man ninety-nine favo,rs and if you fail in the one hundredth he will for get the other ninety and nine and hold the one against vou. So you may say as mai!y pleasant things in the newspaper as you know and help bIild up your community but if you happen to say just one that dis pleases all the others are for grotten. So the editor has only to feel that he has done right and to know that he has not been unfair or unjust and it will all come right after awhile. Then, too, everybody in the com munity knows just how the paper i should be run. They know a great deal better than the editor, and maybe they do in reality. We read the following in an ex change a few days ago which explains the case very forcibly: "How is your school of journalism doing?" .'Well, it is a little slow. We have no trouble in getting people who are willing to be teachers. The trouble is to find anybody who doesn't think he knows all about how a newspaper ought to be run." TRESPASS NOTICE.
