The conference at Greenville oi Wednesday witi the railroad official and the representatives of the town between Greenville and Columbia ani from Wlallialla to Belton to considei t'he schedules of the passenger train on the roads between these points re sulted in a satisfactory, adjustinen to all parties concerned. The Herald and News has ha( something to say about the reasom for calling this conference, and has also taken the position flait the se'hedules inangurated on the Colum bia antd Greenville division the first of this yenr were the most satisfac tory that have ever been operated on that. line. The oniv protest came from Ander. son, and as has been stated, and a! was developell at the meeting at Greeiiville, tle comipiaint wa.s nore oI accotint of file shehdules oin fthe Blue Ridge tfhan on the Southern. Anderson was not satisfied beeniise under tli present selieduiles. people from Walialla anld intermediale points could. not ,'o to Anderson an(] attend to business an4 return the same (lay without great ineuiveni enee. That was the main kick of Anderson, illd it did seem preposter ons in order to remedy this flint the Anderson people sliottib desire to change the sehechies on the Southern, but they thought that was the only way to get the relief tlat. they wilnt ed, And put up as strolltr fi,ht ais they could. btl their position was illogical, and they ( 1 sooi revalized tht1f 1the in animiy1ity of vidorseneill fromll th( towns along. tile mllainl line was tX)c str(lig, lad tlat thIeir figlit Was hopeless onle.

The business has grown in every way. In 1887 Hart Caldwell was mo I tive and steam andn electric power combiied and the paper was folded by hand and the job presses were run by foot power. Now we have electricity and type setting machine and folder aind no Job printer wiould thiink of using his foot as power. In act nobody " works now liut father.' SThe rest by machinery.
