E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Tuesday, April 17, 1906. NEWBERRY. In a little town about 31 miles southeast of Laurens seven or eleven handsome buildings to be used for stores and offices are under construc tion. There is a college in the town, which has several new buildings and numbers of new residences have been built lately or are nearly finished. Some of the residences are among the handsomest in upper South Caro lina. Notable among them is that of Mr. L. W. Floyd, who is well known in Laurens. Another is that of the Hon. H. H. Evans, a former mayor of Laurens as well as of Newberry. Newberry claims a population of 7,000 but the town appears bigger. We think we could give a class of a dozen Newberryians valuable instrue tion in the art of claiming. Newberry is one of the most at tractive and enterprising of Laurens' outlying cities and of that group of flourishing cities, Spartanburg, Green ville, Union and Greenwood which form the "men"- in the "marble ring" of which Laurens is the k 1ig" or "middleman" none is growing more rapidly than Newberry. -Laurens Advertiser. Yes, Newberry has always been modest in her claims -and conservative to a fault, but our growth has been steady and sure. None of your inflated stuff, and just now there is more sub stantial growth than we have seen in Newberry at one time in a long, time. Some fourteen new stores %are - in course of construction and just -com pleted and all of them are being ta ken as fast,as compl4ted. Numerous private residences are being built by those' who want them for their own homes. The Newberry knitting mill is- just reorganized and will be put in opera-, tion in a short time, and the Union' mill will start a branch factoryr here in thirty days. We are one of 'the most substantial towns of the Piedmont and not built on paper. Besides we have a good farining section all round us and an intelligent population. Owing to the big advertisement of slaughter sale by Copeland Brothers we have changed the position of our editorial and local pages for this, is *sue but ,we give you the news all the same. All pages are good. M A A W In Spring an( we throw thE White Goode White Goods was 12 1-2 cents, z White Goods was 25 cents, nov White Goods was 35 cents, nov White Goods was 60 cents,.nov White P.

LeRoy F. You mans-a legal giant, and what is far more a good, noble, generous, sympa thetic man. Gen, Youmans will run -he- must- for attorney general in the coming campaign. And Edgefield will link herself to him withhogs of steel.-=Edgfield Chronile. The Guardian agrees with the Chronicle that Gen. Youmans will run for the position that he is now so ably filling. We don't look for any opposition to this grand old citizen and distinguished lawyer who has done so much for his state. His rec ord is known and the people will de light in again casting their billots for him.-Hampton Guardian. TheHerald and News would be de lighted to see Gen. Youmans elected without opposition. It would be a fitting tribute to an able, faithful official. The abolition of the state dispen sary will be postponed by just so long as the fight against it continues to have the appearance of a bitter per sonal and spiteful effort to destroy and discredit Senator Tillman. The dispensary is weak, but Tillman is strong. Those who are fighting the dispensary ought to have sense enough to direct their attack against the point of least resistance and steer clear of the stiff place in the line. They may wear out their efforts fight ing Tillman and allow the dispensary to escape. The real prohibitionists and anti-dispensary people ought to pray to be delivered from their fool friends.-Spartanburg Journal. There are a great many times when -it wbuld be well to be delivered from ;tur friends. But we scarcely think a in this ase there can be much doubtthat the statedispensary is to go very soon. The dispensary system will remain for a long tgne as a county institutiori but as a state af ~fair the people have decided its fate and it wil 'have to go and we do not believe Senator Tillman can save it or that he will make any great effort to save it. The- county -dispensary will suit most of the ::eounties -as the best method of 'handling ~the whiskey' questiefr but if there are others where a .license system under dispensary regulations beLst let the county have it and if there are others where prohi tion is desired let them have it.

EK~ In looking over the files of The Herald and News, we find that on April 21st of last year a statement was published that the railroad com missioners and the Southern railway and the C. N. & L. had agreed upon a plan for the union depot at Newberry, and it was stated that if the plan was agreeable to the citizens of Newberry, work would be commenced at once. We understood all along that the plan was acceptable to-the people of New eerry, yet nearly a year afte this talement there is st4no unid pot. The prohibitionists held a confer ence in Columbia last Thursday night which was attended by anti dispensary folk as well and it was de cided to inaugurate campaign against the dispensary and to make a fight in every county. The democratic clubs have been called by County Chairman Cunning ham to meet on Saturday, April 28th, for the purpose of electing delegates to the county convention, which in turn will elect delegates to the state convention. Under the constitution of the party, clubs may meet at any other day during the week ending the 28th if that date does not suit. It is important that these clubs should meet and organize for the reason that under our party machinery, clubs are voting precincts for the primaries. And besides delegates are to be elec ted to the State convention. The Spartanburg-Aiken railroad project lacks all: of the elements of a dream. Those who are behind the scenes feel the utmost confidence. Spartanburg Journal. Newberry should look into this rail road proposition and see to it that the road comes this way. Especially should we have connection from here towards Augusta and Saluda and then the section from here towards Whit mire and Spartanburg would be great ly benefited by a road to Newberry and Newberry would also be benefit ed. It is only sixty miles from here to Augusta, but by rail you travel about one hundred and thirty miles. This is.. work for the chamber of commerce. If the Glenn Springs dompany is going to build we should get in touch with them .If they are not going to Juld then we want to take .the matter up in another direc tion.

"What is its name?" "Dat chile ain't got no name yet, Miss Rosa," Aunt Betsy said. "-Why, it must be five or six years old; surely it ought to have a name at that age," the lady said.
