E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Tuesday, June 20. AS TO SCHEDULES. The Southern railway oficials have decided that they cannot put. on the new train between Columbia and Greenville, which was requested by the traffle association. The following in regarI to this is taken from the (reenville News: "As to lie proposed new train on the Columbia and Oreenville line, the future is not so briglit. Teli Soulh eril alreiialy maintains a dliouble daily wervice (ver the rolite and tlie ollicials lo not seem inceliled to -ive the third train.

Otvher roads out of Columbia have ithree trains daily and it is hardly safe to say they handle more business in a m lntl than the Coluilbia :1u11 (reeiville line.

That 's where the di fferenel is. The WVashington Star says: "'South (Cariolina 's political sit uation is badly tangled this year. The lat est developimenit is the ainouncement lby one0 Col. Lumpkin of his candidacy for the United States senate to suc ceed Mr. Tillman. There is no way as yet to judlge as to the seriousness oif this opposition to Mr. Tillman, but it is earniest ly to be hoped, for the sake of South Carolina and the senate as well. that the state will make no change. Mr. Tillman has developed as a statesman ini the course oif his sericei0 ini the upper house. HIe has dlemonst rat ed his cap neity for the consideration of nat ion. alI afIfa irs ini a bro ad spiit. iTe is honest and1 lie is able, and South Car olina wol mtake a serious mistake ii lhe werec displaced."' The Washingtoi Staor's est imaite of Senator Tillmair is shared biy t he peoiple of South Car. oilinia. There is not thle slightest, pro0 habilityv that he will lbe dlefeatedl foi re-elect ion. C'ol. Lumpkin had as wel (juit tihe race anid go home, unless h< thinks he cani (1o some1 good1 by aid vertising the Georgia railr'oadl it whose employ lhe is, inl every county ini the state. The above is from the Andersor Daily Mail. We only reproduce 11 to ew the estimate placed upor Senator Tillmani by those competen1 to judlge who live outside the state .There is no0 question that lhe will rank in history as one of the big men of this country. Of course hi huas his 'faults, and we al have faults but South Car olina would be~ very foolish t< retire him from the senate at thiu time. PARDON or HOYT HAYES. Oov. Heyward has granted a fil pardon to Hoyt Hayes, of Oconee county. It will be remembered that about a year ago Hoyt Hayes wim sentenced to be hanged having beer coivicted of killing his wife. The ease was very stubbornly fought or both sides, and in the first trial the jury failed to agree; on the second trial Hayes was convicted of murder and sentenced to be hanged. An ap peal was taken to the supreme court, which court affirmed the decision of tle lower court. Tle testimony was submitted to tile governor and the whole case hinged upoll the fact whether or not Mrs. Hayes wrote a nott which was found in her room the niIlt of lie killing. Inl this note it was stated tha Iovt 1H1ayes had been kiid to her an1d she did it herself. The position of the state was tlhat Hfiayes was the antholr of the note himself. The governor, when he came to voisiier i tle teslimoly, had speci ieiis ofI tile land-writ ing of both IlaYes and his wife sulbmitted to ex perts. t%wo fit whoi reached tile con clusion that the note was in the hand writin f Mrs. 1 h ayes.
