PICK AND SHOVEL BRIGADE. ,
The pick and shovel brigade is still ; !
at work I'll our streets throwing ]
brickbats ami tin cans and broken
bottle-; out <>t' the ditches into the middle
ut the streets thereby making very '
attractive and hcautilul 1*11??ri?uu 11- 1
tares. j *'
An aiit< mobilist said the other day
in one of the best street where lie
had been accustomed t<? takin.: his
best riiirs there were so many brickbats
and tin cans thrown out ot i he*
ditches into the middle of the stiect I '
that he had actually to change his ' ~
course. There is no doubt if we eon-j'
fiiiue to spend the public funds on j
the pick a ml shovel brigade we will!
have some beautiful streets in New- si
berry probably by the end of the prcs- w
ent century, when the brickbats and ] ;?
tin cans and t?rass and mud all eon- i fi
real into one solid and substantial tl
mass of mat ter. I t i

We understood that sometime ago,
city council had purchased some pav-1
iiiy material in pursuance of the !1
agreement whi-'h it was thought had) "
bit'!! ?eaelied among t!ie owners ..fj
property in Caldwell street from
Friend to the public square for the j
paving of that street. It' the agree- '
men! lias fallen through. or was never j
pert.-.-ted. we hope that city council i
will use this material in paving some
section <>t our streets that the work ' .
of permanent paved streets will be 11
begun.

PARLOR CAR FOR COAST LINE.' t
With the (ireenviUc News at one j o
end of the line and the Charleston! I
Cost at the other, the Lanrensville! i;
Herald and The Herald News in be-1 h
t weenareall iiisilinu upon the Atlantic! a
Const l.ine handling a parlor car be-1 s
tween (ireenville and Columbia. It s
would seem to us that the passenger
service on this road, which is proba- n
bly the heaviest of any road in South j t
Carolina, would warrant the company ; \
to give this additional service. We' ;i
had hoped that the commercial bod- j I
ies, which are presumed to be organ- t
I zed for the advancement of the best c
interest ol' the eonununities in which j e
they exist, would have taken hold of . .c
these suggestions and assisted the}
newspapers in their efforts lo soeuro j
better accommodations for the travel-' v
in?j public. We are satisfied that the <
Southern will lind that the public ap- It
preeiates its efforts to serve those who i
travel, and \\t> know that this parlor;;]
ear would be appreciated by the pat- , i
rons of the Coast Line (between Char- I
lesion and <Ireenville. ,
So far as we have observed none i i
of these commercial bodies, to which ' i
we have referred, have taken any ac- i;
tion to assist the newspapers in their 1
efforts. Tf the chamber of commerce
of Newberry has done anything, it | I
has kept very quiet. It seems to us I I
that this is a legitimate subject upon : 1
iwhieh the chamber of commerce 11
might take action, either through its]
ollioers or its standing committee. We I ;
believe it' the matter is brought oili- \ i
cially to the attention of the officials I
of the Coast Line with a unanimous <
request from these organizations in <
the several towns between (ireenville 11
and Charleston, that the parlor car <
service would be put on at once. i

HELPING THE FARMERS. | r
Congressman I/ever has been very I
active in his work for the farmers i
in his district. Only recently he has i
been in Lee county and in Sumter <
county securing soil surveys by ex- j
perts from the departments in Wash- i
ington and making experiments. This
work is being done under the diree- 1
tion of a newly created division of ?
the government on the utilization 1
of soil. I
The purpose is to ascertain and to 1
demonstrate the fertilizer and crop t
lo which the soil is best adapted. This i
state uses more commercial fertilizer *
than any other slate in the union, 1
ami Mr. Lever is id' the opinion?and (
we suspect correctly?that at least {
one-third of i| is wasted by using for- c
tilizer that is hot adapted lo the soil, i
The following paragraphs from an in- !

I he tollowimr paragraph appeared
1 the State of Tuesday. We ar? glad !
at the Public Service ('ouporat ion

tn make the litst line as indicate
I in this paragraph.
It should lie of considerable intor>:
to the people ot Newberry, and
e believe that the decision |o build
10 loop as indicated here is the wis 1
one that the Public Service Coloration
could have tnude. It wiU
irVy its line through a section that
very fertile ami that is in very
real need of railroad facilities.
"A representative of the Public
>ervice corporation who was here
eMerday states his belief that by
nis time next year the headquarters
f the company will have been established
in Columbia and that the irrad"
"I the roads out of Columbia will
ave commenced. He slates that as
matter o| record the company has
pent over slMO.OOO already in haviny
urvevs made.
I here will be three branches runliny
out of Columbia, one via Lex in,iron
and Saluda to Xewberrv and
\hitniire and I'tiion and Winnsboro
iml back to Columbia, fonninir a
oop. He believes that this will bo
he lirst line on which work will bo
ommoneed. The oilier will be start d
toward Oranirehurir and thence to
nimmervillc and Charleston."
It Would be interest mir to know
vhy there i* no better discipline at
'lenison. whether it is because the
uembers I the faculty know notli'1
?" ot discipline or because tliev are
if raid the boys in charge will turn
hem out ot 1 heir tat jobs There ran
?c no good from the toleration of such
loinys in South Carolina. The young
nen who are to become the future
nlers of the state are not fit for such
1 calling until they have first been
aiiu'ht to obey.?^ orkville Impiirer.
From a editorial in the Press and
banner one of whose proprietors is a
rnstee of Cleinson college the folowin.ir
paragraph may oxjdain and
inswer your question:
"Deeply as the board of trustees
mil the faculty regret any disorder,
1 is a well known fact that in miliary
organizations, if there is disorler,
the fault primarily rests with the
'omniandant. The board of tnisei's
look to the Commandant for orler,
and any man who has ever been
n military service knows that the
efficiency of the service is exactly
vnunensurate with the etliciency of
the commanding ofllecr. If a cam
nander is not a consistent disciplinarian,
he cannot correct resulting
vils by a measure so drastic as to
sweep out one fourth of his command."
It would seem from this that the
*ault for the disobedience and lack of
liscipline, which is admitted by the
'less and Manner, lays entirely at
lie door of Capt. Clay. We do not
enow tha twe ean agree entirely with
he lecture, which the Press and Hauler
reads the newspapers of this
dale and the charge which it conains
that they have disp ayed a great
leal of nerve in criticising Clemson
"oilego. So far as we have obsorv d,
while there has been some criticsin,
it has all been in a very friendy
spirit and with expressions which
iii .
show a into rest on the part of
the press in the success c f the instiI

Ik* above criticism, ami so far a- we
know, there is ihi newspaper in the
state that would do anything to hurt
tiie institution but I hey all show a dis!,n>iti"!1
i" h**|p. There has been no
display of opposition to it, but all the
expressions have been along the lines
of earnest solicitude.
