E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Friday. September 25, 1908. ED A petition is being gotten up to Supervisor Wicker to assign to the Probate Judge the room in the new court huose that was originally plan ned for this office. The Probate Judge should be as signed to this office as the one to which he has been assigned is entire -ly inadequate. The records in the of fiee of Probate Judge are as import ant and valuable as those of the clerk of court. The night riders have appeared in Greenville in this State, it is stated. Gov. Ansel has ordered an investiga tion. This is proper. Lawless meth ods should not be tolerated and are not endorsed by any of the farmers organizations and cannot be encourag ed by any good citizens. The farm ers cannet be helped by any such methods and these night riders are condemned in the plans they have adopted by the Fa"mers Union. We do not know who is right in the controversy going on between Gov. Haskell and Mr. Bryan and President Roosevelt but it is without precedent so far as we recall for the president of the United States co be ta':ing such an active part in partisan poli ties. He, as president, should not be so active in political mud sling ing. The Rock Hill Record says that of 693 students examined for entrance to Winthrop in July only 107 passed and were eligible for entrance and these included the scholarship stud ents. This will be the basis for say ing nearly six hundred young women applied for admission to Winthrop and had to be turned away because there was not dormitory room. More and more is it becoming true that the people depend almost entire ly on newspapers for information up on which to base their ballots. Then, indeed, does it behoove the people to know something of the reliability of the newspaper or papers from which they gather their information; let them learn the reason for their pa per's existence, the motive of its edi torial policy, the sources of its sup port; these will determine whether or not a paper is reliable.-Laurens Advertiser. Surely the Advertiser does not mean to charge all newspapers with being "influenced' "in their editorial opinions by "the sources of its sup port.'' We thought there were at least a few that stood on the high, standard at least in the opinion of the Advertiser. Of course, if night riding becomes popular throrghout the Cotton Belt, it will boom the price of horses, though it do not help the price of cotton. Meeting of Pulaski Lodge No. 20, I. o.o. F. Pulaski Lodge No. 20, I. O. O. F., *will meet at 8 o'clock Friday night, Sept. 25th. The 3d degree will be conferred. Some very important business will come before the lodge in reference to the district meeting wVhic.h will meet with Pulaski lodge in the near future. Mollohon lodge is invited to attend the meeting. Ev ery member of Pulaski lodge is ex pected to be present. WV. H. Bowen, Secretary. A CARD. The exercises of my school will be resumed on next Monday morning, September 28, instead of October 5, las previously :stated. In my work I shall aim at progress as far . as consistent with thorough mess. I share in the grief of o.ur college men that not enoug-h time and attention are given to efficient pre paratory work. I offer an especially attractive course in arithinetic and English. One of my pupils recently entered with ease and credit the freshman class at Elizabeth college, a very high grade ins:itution. Others can do as well with similar application. I try not to deserve the reproach whieb usually follows because "Tom: my has not learned a single thing this 9ont1re year."

Prosperity was shocked Sunday evening when the news that one of our oldest and most respected citiz ens had answered to the roll call] "up yonder''. Mr. Andrew Kinard. born April 4. 1837, died Sunday. Sept. 20. quietly at his home. For seral weeks Mr. Kinard had not. been his wonted self, due to heart ' trouble, and his cheery greetings on the streets were missed by all, espe eially the children. With them he was a general favorite. Mr. Kinard 's long life spanned many changing scenes. When the call came in the sixties, he was there, being a faithful member of Co. G, Thirteenth Regi ment. During Reconstruction he was active and since then he has been a citizen of our town. Mr. Kinard was twice married, his first wife nee Martha Singley, preceded him to the bright beyond more than 20 years ago. He is survived by three chil dren. Mr. Wmn. Kinard and Mrs. How ard McWaters, of Atlanta, and Miss Mamie Kinard, and his wife. Mrs. Ellie Weeks Kinard. The sympathy of. all goes out to these friends in their great loss. Prosperity has never been better represented at Newberry college than it is this year. Nine of our embrvon ie business men, politicians, represen tatives, etc., are there, namely: Messrs. Chas.
