E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered.at the Postoffice at New ,*berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Tuesday, March 20, 1906. MAIL SERVICE. Representative Lever has just ar tanged with the postoffice depart ment, to place a mail agent, J. J. Biek ley, on the early train out of Laurens, says the Newberry Herald and Newb of the 9th instant, getting its infor mation from the Washington letter in the Columbia Evening Record. The Newberry paper goes on to voice our sentiment in saying that it is good news and the people all along the line appreciate the good offices of Mr. Lever in this matter; that the new service to be inaugurated will be of great convenience to the people along the line between Laurens and Colum bia; that the railroad authorties say the service will be put on 'very soon, but just at what date it cannot be stated at this writing; and that as soon as this is done Mr. Childs should through to Greenville.-Laurens Her ald. Congressman Aiken also as a let ter from the department stating that the service- has been authorized and President Childs told.us the other day that he was now arranging his coach es so as to make a place for the mail agent and that he would be put on very soon. That will be a great con venience but what we want to do along the line now is to persuade and convince Mr. Childs that this train -should be made a regular passenger train and that it should run from Greenville to Columbia but certainly from Laurens and about on the same schedule as it is now running on. He is almost persuaded now to put it on and it will not take a great deal of pleading. Suppose we all go and ask him if he will not at least try it as a passenger train as soon as the mail agent goes on. DON'T BE A KNOCKERE. If there.is any chance to boom bus iness, boom it. Don't pull a long facee anid look as though you had a sour stomach. Hold up your head, *smile and look for better things. Hide your little hammer, and try to speak 'well of others, no matter how small you know yourself to be. When a stranger drops in jolly him; tell.him this is the greatest town in the state-and it is. -Don't discour age him by speaking ill of your neigh bors-lead him to believe that he has at last struck a place where white people live. Don't knock. Help yourself along by becoming popular and push your friends with you. It's dead easy. Be a good fel low and soon you'll' have a procession of good fellows. No mian ever helped imnslf by knoeking other people down in character and business-no anan ever got rich by .trying to make others believe he' was the only man in town, or the only man in town who' kriew anything. You can't climb the ladder of success,by treading on oth-' era' corns; keep off the corns and don't knock.. You are not the only one. There, are others and they have brains and know something as well as you. There's no end of fun minding your own business-it makes other people like you. Nobody gets stuck on a :knoeker; don't be one; be good, and subscribe for The Herald and News. It twill only cost you a dollar and a half a year, and will be a material aid in keeping you from being a knocker. We have appropriated the above from the St. Matthews Commercial Advance but it will apply alright to Newberry. We have not yet gotten sufficiently aroused and enthused not to have our .knockers. The. city is going right ahead in spite of them, however, but it would be so much smoother sailing if -everybody would join hands now and help and stop knocking. Give this plan a trial and see how it works. Newberry is soon to have a new court house and jail to cost about $40,000. Hon. Geo. S. Mower was in Columbia last Friday arranging a loan with the sinking fund commis sion. Newberry grew tired of sleep. ing in the valley of hidden light; is now wide awake and fast elimbing up to the heights of shining ad vancement.-Laurens Herald. We should have at least $50,00( or possibly $75,000 because we should -build a court house that will be good for manyv years to come. It should not only havixe nire proof vaults but should be a fire proof building. I1 should be put in a location that will not only be convenient but that will be so ituated that the gro" ' mas be made attractive and heautifn +o that the sternness of justice may be softened by the surroundings whieh nature can be made to furnish. But these are all matters which the commission ;ill have in hand and we have no doubt but they will give them due consideration and do the best they can with the money at their disposal. Senator Tillman should stay out of the campaign this year and attend to the business of the senate in Wash ington. There will be men in the cam paign for state offices amply able to present the issues before the people of this state. If he should have opposition which is not probable then he and his op ponent might enter the campaign and discuss national questions but lie should let state matters alone. He will not be able to change the minds of the people on the dispensary question for they have had the ques tion aired in almost every possible form, but he may be able to stir up factionalism again which we are sure he does not desire. Mr. M. F. Ansel, an avowed candi date for governor, announces his platform. When he ran three years ago he and all the other candidates in that race were avowed state dispen sary candidates as "the best soli tion.'" He is the only one in that race who is a candidate this year. He now says that he is no longer in favor of the state institution but thinks it ought to go and that the people of each county should have the right to say what they want as between dis pensary and prohibition but would deny them the right to say whether they want a license system as provid ed in constitution. We would judge Mr. Ansel is a prohibitionist in theory and practice, but as a practical politi cian he wants the people to say what they want. "In short," says Mr. Ansel, "I am opposed to the system of a state dis pensary, I am in favor of local county option as between prohibition and county dispensaries. I am opposed to high license and am in favor of such laws as will decrease the sale of li quors in this state." It would seem from this that Mr. Ansel is opposed to the state dispen sary; is opposed to high license; is a f rohibitionist~ himself and. wants the people to say in each county what they want.
