THE SCHEDULES SETTLED SAT
ISFACTORILY.
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

Tle only protest of schedule frow

from Ninety Six that lie frain. whiel;

It people in every respect have been
le kind nsiderate and idulgent. We
havc to do our duty and to serve
the public and to advocate- 'thbse
things which we felt were for the
best interest of the people UN the
Scommunity regardless of our- peson
al welfare.
(1 We have scel many things accom
plished, which when first atitated,
n were very unpopular. These are very
d gratifying reniiiscences, but now in
n commemoration of our twentieth ani
t versary in connection with The Herald
and News, which is the lineal de
S 'seendant of the first paper published
a in Newberi'y county, if each -Pne of
f these 2000 and more subscribers, who
.. is ii arrears, would send us atileast
o oie year's subscription, we would ac
h1 eept it as the most gratifying incident
in our history.
e We have not yet adopted the cash
y il advance systen,' and therefore we
d have occasioially to 'call upon those
sI who are in arrears to coie forward
e and pay what they are due. We have
I. a great Iany subscribers, who pay
A promptly and ptn11t0ally (ch year;
we have others who have not paid for
e several years.
e An aniversary present in the shape
I of one year's subscription \vould le
a greatly appreciated and could be used
to very great advantage at this par
h ticular timie.
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. It has not
been so long. It seems Only yester
day and yet many improvements and
many changes have been made. The
world Iloves.

e Old fashioned nighteaps and the
e old fashioned habit of sleeping in a
well ventilated room have come in
to4e.ther in London. This is a fad
worth importing to some Aiericani
