E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Tuesday. October 13, 1908. IMPORTANT NOTICE. Some months ago we published the ruling of the post office department as to delinquent subscriptions and in conformity with it were forced to take from our list a number of subscrib ers. Some of these have paid up and renewed. A great many have not. We have not adopted the strictly cash in advance rule. We have en deavored to send every one who is in arrears a statement. This is to give notice that all who are not paid up to 1908, on the first of November will be taken from our list. The ruling says we cannot have the advantage of the second class rate of postage for any subscribers who are nine months or more in arrears. We have during our 22 years with The Herald and News lost thousands of dollars by indulging ceedit to our subscribers and we have been forced to the conclusion that this indulgence has not been appreciated by them. We hate to lose any of them but we must have the money and we cannot send the paper unless you pay for it. We are sorry that we have found out that there are so many ungrateful people, but the more you do for some people the less they think of you. This is the last notice. If you fail to receive The Herald and News after November 1 von will know the reason. Examine your label. Tn Friday 's issue of The Herald and News we suggested that the sup ervisor should arrange for the build ing of the steel bridge at Whitmire across the Enoree. A gentleman from that section of the county had stated to us that no arrangement bad been made by the supervisor for the re building of this bridge. and was com plaining that that section of the county was not receiving the atten tion that it should have from the county ' supervisor. The supervisor informs us that he has already let the contract for the building of this bridge at Whitnmire and t.hat the steel part of the bridge will be ten feet longer than the old 'bridge, and that the price for the bridge is $3164, and that the contract iprovides that the bridge is t'o be built by the first of January. We make this statement in justice to the supervisor and for the infor mation of those persons in thait sec tion who were complaining that they were not receiving the attention they deserved. The supervisor also states that the bridge in Maybinton between UTnion has- also been repaired. and that he expects to repair the bridge over Enoree at Keitt 's. This bridge has been used but was somewhat damag ed by the freshet. The Standard Warehouse Co. is do ing the proper thing in arranging to let the farmers have mon& on their cotton. Cotton is too low. It is oblig ed to advance in price. The farmers should be in position to get the bene fit of this advance. The arrangements having been made to advaned money on cotton business should look up. Those who owe money should put their cotton in the warehouse and get an advance on it and put that money in circula tion. One dollar started in the right direction can do a lot of debt paying in one day. A good place to start it on duty is at the newspaper office. NAVAL PROGRESS. What Grew From the Former Low Per Cent of Hits. "The reult oft this lack or rae tiee 'showedl at Sant1iago. wvhere tih(meC wa only~ abo(ut 2 per cnt of hlits made~ by the Americani fleet." -ays a writ er, in Van Oden Magazine. "The Spanis-h fleet was destroyed. but while America was cheering in its millions its navy defenders were sob erly thinking of that very small per centage of hits. As a result the navy went at target praetice in a serious and -thorough way. Then for the first time was introduced the prac teie of firing at low ranges. The discovery was soon made tha.t range finders are of little use-the gun it self had to be depended upon to get the range. The next important fact edu1ced was that a vairiety of cali thie fall ';f Thlitl hle markers were 1inl!le i, udiiltuHish one from thle (tiler. IIere was another matter of escenc'e.
