FRIDAY, APRIL 21, gos.
It has been suggested that at the
next meeting of the Columbia Library
association, on the second Tuesday in
May. the name of the library be
changed to the "Timrod Library."
This would be an appropriate and last
ing tribute to one whose memory is
sacred to all true South Carolinians.
The railroads and railroad commis
sioners have about agreed on a plan
for a union depot at Newberry
whereby the present passenger sta
tion of the Southern will be used by
both roads. This was the suggestion
which some of us made about a year
ago when the matter was agitated and
and it will cost very little to either
road to carry it out and will be much
better than what we have. We are
of the opinion that it would be better
to have the passenger station away
from the freight depot and that the
most desirable place for this union
passenger station is at the junction
at the foot of Caldwell street but we
had better take this agreemept of the
commissioners and railroads now
than to wait. We hope to see work
commence at once.
There seems to be difference of op
inion as to the result of the move
ment and organization of the farmers
of the south to reduce the cotton acre
age. Some seem to think that the in
crease in the privilege tax is an indi
cation that the use- of fertilizer will
be much greater and consequently the
anount of cotton to be planted will
be increased in like propotion. This is
explained by fact that this tax is paid
this year on cotton seed meal and also
by the fact that the farmers are using
commercial fertilizer under their corn,
It will hardly be possible to tell just
what has been done until the govern
ment report comes in. There is no
doubt that there will be considerable
reduction-in the acreage. Whether it
will be 25 per cent. or not of course
cannot be said and even if it is not
that much it is scarcely probable that
as large crop will be made as was
made last year. The farmers are
making a mistake to rush their cotton
on the market.
COTTON PLANTING DELAYED.
In South Carolina Planting Later
Than Usual-Transplantinlg of
Tobacco Begun.
Washington, April 19.-The weekly
crop bulletin of 'the weather bureau
under date of yesterday, says:
Cotton planting is much delayd in
Mississippi and Lotiisiana, and is lat
er than usual in Texas and both Caro
linas. Betters progress with this work
has been made in Alabama ana 'jeer
gia, and in the southern portion of
these states is nearing completion.
Fair to good stands of the early plant
ed are reported from Alabama, Geor
gia and Florida. In Txas the early
planted is reported as promising.
Tobacco plants are generally plenti
ful, and transplanting has begun in
oSuth Carolina and Florida.
While the fruit must necessarily
have sustained i1jury ,fr9ng the severe
cold during the' 'a'ter- part ofu-he
week in the central.andso.uthervdis-;
tricts, it is prebabIk tfrat lT the arbe
northern sections to the eastward of
the Mississippi river the damage has
been less serious. In New England
and the northern portion of the lake
region it is probable that no serious
injury has been done.
Good Friday.
Today is the day celebrated by
Christians as the anniversary of the
passio*n and death of their Lord. To
those of them, who realize the signi
ficance of the day, it is the most sol
emn day in all the year. Its obser
vance dates back to the very earliest
period in the history of the church.
Constantine the Great forbade the
holding of judicial trials, markets,
public entertainments and amuse
ments on that day. For centuries it
has been observed by the great multi
tude of Christians, in all ages and in

thousands will gather in their places
of worship to call to remembrance the
story of the cross. Thousands will
eiter into the spirit of the message
that the day brings. They will trans
act the necssary business of the day,
but will lay aside everything that
-ench to draw the mind and heart
away from the memory and influence
of the event they celebrate. There
are many Christians, wrose conscienc
es permit them on other days to at
tend the theatre, the social card party
or the social dance, who would soon
er think of indulging in such amuse
ments on Sunday (the Lord's day)
than on Good Friday. The infiucnce
of the day is more and more felt, at
least on its formal side, than it has
ever been. In many of the states of
the United States, it is now a legal
holiday. In most of the states the
schools are closed today, and the stu
dents are given holiday, that they may
keep Holy-day. The sentiment, il
such it may be called, is a worthy one.
It is .well that Christians thus recall
their relation to the Cross of Christ;
