SUPERINTENDENT SIMPSON.
While they are gratified in his (
promotion, his many friends in this 1
section regret that Superintendent
I?.. E. Simpson, of the Southern, is
to be moved from Columbia. lie goes
to Ashcvillc to lake charge of thj
lA?heville disivision. Since he has
been in Columbia in charge of the
Spartanburg division, he has made
hosts of warm friends throughout
his territory. That he lias been successful
iu 111 > management of his division
is shown by his weil-mcriteJ 1
promotion.
The Spartanburg and Columbia divisions
have been consolidated, and
vSupIt Tf.^nry Ai Wfilliams remains 1

his duties and responsibilities
being almost doubled. Supt. Williams
is so well known in Newberry
that I line is lit 11c need to say
that our people, while they regret to
lose Mr. Simpson, are pleased that,
this division is to be again under Mr.
Williams' control. Mr. Williams :
is always courteous, an 1 he is a
thorough railroad man, whose merit
has been recognized and whose services
are appreciated by the road
and its patrons.
TT'on. P. S. Henderson has announced
his candidacy for the United
Slates senate, 10 succeed Senator
Latimer. The race promises to b?
interesting.
The report of Mr. McComb, of
Washington, in ward to the septic
tanks, will be awaited with interest.
There is no doubt Hint s 'inelhing
has been wrong with the tanks, and
lie is expected to suggest the remedy.

gone direct to the unions for their
private consideration.

K educe acreage in cotton and plant
more Farmers' Unions and cowpeas.
(lood crops of cowpeas will reduce
acreage in cotton, make your land
rioli, reduce your fertilizer bills,
supply forage for stock and grain
for both man and beast, and reduce
labor bills.
Plant plenty of Farmers' Unions
nli over the country and these will
vd"n;it<< the farmers along the business
?ide of their farming and proV' '
-in organized system of marketin
"on thai will ensure good profit"
'o the farmer for his money crop
cotton.
The Uobb's plan of distributing
your pay days over four or five
months is a good one. Tt has been
the rule of many who buy 011 credit
to commence getting in "February
and continue on over the whole season
up to cotton picking time paying
about the same prices or profit's
for 0110 month a^ the last as he
did for the nine months, all due in
November.

his eonionifnt and an abundance
of game falls to his share. j
So it is with the cotton speculator, '
lie prepares himself for llie November
harvest when foolish col lou
growers have all made their bills
payable which forces more col ton
ipon the market than spinners care
to take ami then the tea mo of cotton
bear is played for all it is worth,
md away goes ail the profits that
['lie simple farmer has labored hard
to win for a long year's toil.
The remedy: Distribute payments
iif your bills over at least four
moiltlis by paying one third in November,
one third in January and
the balance in March. This distribution
will relieve the rush of work
and take away the ^necessity of
dumping so much cotton on the
market during October, November
and December. This will give more
lime for sowing small grain and fall
ploughing and remove the opportunity
for New York's panic ridden
money market to control, by giving
cotton farmers time to warehouse
tireir cotton and defend their positions
for demanding profitable prices
by the use of their own cotton
for collateral for money.
Facing the Firing Lino of the Farmers
Union.
Doing one's duly as a committeeman
on the good of the order is anything
else but a. pleasant position at
times. It is a pleasure of course to
gather in information that will bring
money profits to the members or contribute
to the general welt-fare of
the union when this can be done
without bringing some officer or
member of the union to a halt, that
has stepped over Die firring line
without, giving til re pass word or
counter sign, which is equity and
justice to all. Kach Tnemher his privileges
ami place, so each officer is
a ruler in his sphere, each is subject
to limitation. The range of |
each olTieer's power i< prescribed bv
I he const i f u 1 ion. yet within Hull
range each is most emphatically a I
ruler, lint when ;iu officer of the
union over step's the tiring line and
is becoming a I rairsgrosser l>v intruding
upon lln- functions of another
brother's office, 11 h 11 and I In1 re it
becomes the unpleasant duty of the
i?ne \vii?t is fneiny the firing line to
II *' 11 the brother ami demand the
counter sign or turn him back.
.Iu>l so sure as you step upon a
snake's tail and he will turn his
inouMi upon you. just' so sure as vou
call one ol your tophoavy members
I" a halt he will also turn loose his
mouth upon the man that dot's it.
I uis is the place where many cowardly
members waver and faii to do
their duly. Instead of coming right
out with I'he plain truth and honest
plai>> talk, they seem to think it prudent
lo go whispering around the
truth in a kind ol speak easy fashion
for fear of losing the friendship
of this fellow or injuring the union.
