;~~ ~ .1 ~4 E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Tuesday. November 10, 1908. F Among the visitors to the A. R. P. r -Synod was Editor J. T. Bigham of the Chester Lantern. As this was his e first visit to Newberry we regret his C duties in synod so absorbed his time that we could not show him a live and progressive Piedmont city. In talking of Chester one thing he mentioned as the policy of the city C and county should be adopted as the policy of all communities that are 3 taking up the progressive spirit and doing permanent street and road work. T The city and county of Chester have united in the employment of a a resident civil engineer who lays out the roads and streets before any per- E manent work is done and then sees that it is properly done. iJ The county is utilizing the chain gang on permanent road work and bridge building and additional con viets are hired from the State and e adjoining counties. As a result in a few years several miles of Macadam " roads have been built and without additional taxation. But before the work is undertaken the road is laid R out by the engineer and in many t cases the location of the road is s changed and in all cases the grade is T fixed. C As Newberry is starting on the work of street paving the services of & an engineer should be secured. If one had been in charge of the side walks a better job could have beei had. The work of street improvement o in Newberry will not stop with the small contract which has just been awarded. It is but the-beginning and it is important that this shall be pro perly done. Three erstwhile Republican States elected Democratic governors and a couple Democratic States gave elec- p toral tickets to Republicans. Ohio, Minnesota and Indiana while giving , Taft the electoral vote elected Demo- -' cratie governors. This causes cer tain newspapers to talk of presiden- g, tial candidates for the Democrats in a: 1912. Harmon, of Ohio, was attorney r general under Cleveland and is eleet- ti ed governor of Ohio. We hold to our h opinion held in the beginning o,f the g, campaign this year that John A. y Johnson of M.inneso,ta is the man for tj the Democrats to nominate. He has t1 presidential capacities and has the ~a faculty of winning. Mr. Bryan may want the job of y~ running again. He is a great and h good man but can never be elected y president. John A. Johnson has the qualities that win and has the ability k to fill the job. Atlanta is making an effort to in duce Mr. Taft to spend the wintei there. It is impossible. Mr. Taft is seeking a quiet .place to spend the a winter so he might take the rest cure. s Why not try Charleston or Columbia h in this State. They are ideal winter resorts.t NOTICE OF PRTMARY ELECTION I. Notice is hereby given that a De A FORTY-T Decorated I Gi"en Free with m Assortment of 1 ,O Cards.
