Entered at the Postoffice at New
berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter.
Tuesday. September 22. 1908.
Gov. Ansel has ordered a specia:
term of the court of general sessioi
of Saluda county for the trial of Wil
liam Herrin, the negro who is cliarg
ed with the murder of Emanuel Car
ver.
Gen. M. L. Bonham, who was elect
ed presidential elector of the Third
District, has resigned as a notary
public. He desires to be on the safe
side and to avoid all suspicion of
the violation of the constitution by
holding more than one office at the
same time.
Judge R. W. Memminger who is
holding court in Newberry got
through with more civil cases last
week than have been disposed of in
any civil court in Newberry in a long
time. He is one of the best judges on
the circuit bench in this State. Even
tempered, learned in the law and will
ing to work without waste of time,
the business of the court is dispatch
ed with satisfaction to the officers,
lawyers, litigants and jurors.
\ Senator-elect E. D. Smith in a
speech to the farmers at Spartanburg
on Saturday said he would, if it could
be done, have the government report
the ctton in the warehouses so that
the farmers could know. The govern
ment has paid agents in each county
to report the cotton that is ginned
and Lie condition of the crops so
that the speculator may know just
what the fa,rmer has but the infor
mation to the farmer as to the
amount of cotton in warehouses and
in the hands of the manufacturers is
never given. It keeps the farmer in
ignorance. Mr. Smith is right. It is
the contention we have made for some
time.
President Harris of the Farmers
Union issues an address to the cotton
producers which is printed in this is
sue of The Herald and News. He
urges wherever it is possible that the
cotton grower hold his cotton for 'a
higher price. He states that the has
-been in a number,%of the cotton pro
ducing States and that the crop is
short. Not only is this crop short
but the crop of 1907 wa.s short. He
urges all business interests in the
South. to cooperate 'with the cotton
farmer and help him tt make t,he
present yield a profit above the cost
of production. Of course, this will
help all lines, of business because it
will bring more money to the South.
Mr. Harris, however, in closing his
address suggests a fact which we
have preached for many years, and
only by the observance of this fact
can a Southern cotton producer be
come independent and demand and
command a profitable price for his
cotton. It is now time for tshe farmer
to begin to get ready to put himself
in this position and we hope that
every farmer in. Newberry county will
take note of what Mr. Harris says.
Every farmer knows this already.
Here it is:'
"How is the grower of cotton to
become able to maintain a profitable
price? First, he must diversify his
crops, and now is- the time to begin
for another year. Sow oats, wheat.
crimson clover. vetch, rye a,nd barley.
You will need it next spring to feed
your stock. Instead of buying, raise
your horses, mules, cows, hogs and
corn..
"Quit buying hay to kill grass, to
raise cotton, to buy more hay with.
Make home self-supporting and self
sustaining, and prosperity is yours.''
The Body Sellers.
Mayor Speer of Denver was talking
the other day about a pair of political
'trieksters.
" They gave themselves away,'' he
said. "Don't tricksters always give
themselves away? It reminds me of
the two men who wanted to sell their
corpese for dissection..
"These two men, miseerably clad,
called on' the dean of a medical col
lege in New York.
" 'We are both on the verge of star
vation, sir,' the spokesman said. 'We
are well o~n in years, and it is clear
that we haven't much longer to live.
Would you caire to purchase our
bodies for your dissecting room?'
"The dean hesitated.
" 'It is an odd proposition,' he mut
tered.
"' 'But it is occasionally done,' said
the spokesmran in an eager voice.
" WelL' said the dean. 'we might
arrange it. What price do you ask ?'
''Over in Philadelphia.' said the
spokesman, 'they gave us $40.'

''Stranger. will vou say racc?
asked Deacon John, as they drew up
to the table.
"Sav what?'' said the stranger.
"Will you ask the Lord's ble..sing

Turning his sad, uncomprehending
eyes on his host, the pious guest said -
drearily:

"In Switzerland this summer,"
said a Philadelphian, "I heard
Charlemagne Tpwer describe the
stringent police regulations of Berlin.
"Mr. Tower, by way of illustra
tion, concluded with a little story.
"Schmidt and Krauss met one
morning in the park.
" 'Have you heard,' says Schmidt,
'the sad news abtu Muller?'
'No,' says Krauss. 'What is it ?'
'Well, poor Muller went boat

capsized and he was drowned. The
water was ten feet deep.'
"'But couldn't he swim?'
"'Swim? Don't you know that
all persons are strictly forbidden by
the police to swim in the river?' "

children, is a sufficient appeal to every
heart.
Some years ago it was suggested by
Rev. Howard Crumley of Atlanta,
Ga., that on the first Saturday and
Sabbath of October, all those who
love children set apart those days for
gathering funds to relieve the needs
or the fatherless. On that Saturday,
let everybody old and young, rich and
poor, devote the day to the Orphan
ages, each man sending his gift to the
Orphanage he loves the best or that
lies nearest his heart. The Georgia
scheme worked well. For several
years an effort has been made to
rouse an equal interest in South Car
olina, and Alabama and Florida have
also .taken it up. In every commun
ity some zealous brother might take
up the matter and push it and the
day 's work from everybody would go
to the orphans. This proposition is
not~ in the interest of any one orph
anage; it is intended for each one to
give to the orphanage nearest his
heart. Give Saturday 's wages to the
orphans. Gather the proceeds on the
Sabbath and forward to the institu
tions above named. It will be sure to
reach the right spot, if dratfs and
checks are made out to the name of
the institution itself and provisions
shipped to the same. We have no
doubt that when an individual c-om
munity makes special request of the
railway aut-horities, flour and rice
and molasses or any other products
would find them willing to delvier
without charge.
Notice that this is simply a state
ment. Urgent appeals are not nec
esmary. The orphans need help. The
institutions are unable to give it,
without the backing of the people. At
this season all their treasuries are
creatly depleted. Do not over-look the
day.
