E. H. AULL, EDITOR.
Entered at the Postoffice at New
berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter.
Friday,A March 5, 1909.
The $12,000 authorized to be bor
rowed by -the county ought to be
available very soon but it is probable
that it will not be befoire the firist of
April. In the meantime the super
visor ought to find out when he can
likely get the money and make some
temporary arrangement so as -to pay
the claims against the county.
The Civic association ought to get a
definite und;erstanding wi!, the citiz
-ens, the garbage cart and the .law as
to when it is lawful to put trash on
the streets and how often and what
day it is to be gathered up and carted
away. Or whether this is to be done
at all. And if it is not to be earted
away then it ought not to be put on
the streets. - We have seen garbage
put on the street and remain there
until it was scattered to the winds.
If every one would take an inter
est in keeping.the town clean it would
be an easy matter. .
It is a matter of education and
training and maybe by keeping ever
lastingly at it in the right way we
may acomplish results. Certainly no
one should be discouraged.
The bar and everybody having busi
ness in court ought to be satisfied
unless it is the poor fellow who is
being sued. Personally we sympath
ize with the unfortunate always, and
would help him if we eould. T-hree
.courts a year now for jury trials. In
Newberry, however, in latter years
there has not been much demand for
jury trials in civil matters.
DIVIDING LEXINGTON.
The people in the Fork of Lexing
ton on the Richland side are making
efforts to take a part of Lexington in-,
to Richland county, and the info-rma
lion we have 'is that it will be practi
eally 'unanimous with the portion
that it is proposed to anliex.
There is a section of Lexington
county beyond Little Mountain that
ought to come into Newb-erry county
if the lower section is to be a part of
Richland -county.
We understand that the Riehland
annexationists have decided upon a
line about Wateree creek below Chap
in and as near Saluda river as it is
perimtted to come under the consti
tution. This line does not include
Peak's nor that section of Lexington
around Hope station. We have been
.told that the people at Peak's up as
far as Hope's prefer to go into Rich
land county.
If they so prefer and it is practical
ly unanimous we presume they will be
-permitted to go in along with those
. who are lower down in the Fork.
We would be glad to see the section
of the eounty from Wateree creek
around Piny Woods ehurch, and as
near the river as the constitutional
limitation will permit come into New
berry county. Most of these have
their business connections in Newber
.'y county, and Little Mountain, Pros
perity, and Newberry are their mark
et places a-nd naturally, we think,
theyv should prefer coming to New
berry. We hope if they so desire
that some movement will be inaugu
rated wich will permi,t this section
to annex with Newberry.
The legislature passed an act at
the recent session permitting t.he tr-us
tees of the Newberry school district
to submit to the voters of the district
the qjuestioni ot issuing $30,000 worth
of bonds for the purpose of erecting
addition buildings if in the judgment
of the trustees such additional build
ings were needed. The whole matter
is left to the discretion of the trus
tees as to t:he time the election shall
be held and whether or not the ques
tion shall b)e submitted to the people.

THE RAILROAD DEBT.
Sinking Fund Commission Autlhorized
to Borrow from State Sinking
Fund Commissior.
At the request of the iEng fund
colmii-s.,;ion which is compose ! of tlve
county supervisor and th a: and
jntendants of the towns ' sber.
Helena, and Prosperity, o-: leisla-l
ture passed fou,t acts :ovidi I o
fundng the debt for raili -id in these
tllwee twonships.
The aets anthorize the S .ite zink
ing fund commission to ead tha town
ships the money to take up the
amounts that are still due for railroad
indebtedness.
r The Herald and News prints a copy
of one of these acts and the others
are the same except that they relate
to differept townships or to diferent
iroads.
The indebtedness in these townships
is as follows:
In township No. 8 for the Augusta,
Edgefield, and Newberry railroad a
balance of $7,200; in No. 1 township
for the Augusta, Edgefield, and New
berry railroad a balance of $26,000
and for the C., N. & L. railroad a
balance of $2,500: in No. 9 township
a balance for the C., N. & L. railroad
of $2,500.
These acts only authorize the com
mission to bonrow t.his money from
the -State sinking fund commission.
The following is a copy of one of
them, and as stated the others are in
the same langu.age and for the same
purpose:
Section 1. That the commissioners
of the sinking fund of this State are
hereby -authorized to lend to tl. o
missioners of sinking fund, town
ships Numbers one, eight and. nine of
Newb-erry county, out of the founds
in their hands, an amount not exceed
ing twenty-five hundred dollars, to
be used in paying the issue by Stony
Battery township, or township Num
ber nine, of twenty-five hundred dol
lars worth of matured bonds out
standing, in and of the Columbia,
Neberry and Laurens railroad.
See. 2. That said loan shall be for
the space of six year- payable in an
nual instalments from date, and shall
bear interest at a. rate not exceeding
five per centum per annum, payable
annually, -and foir the purpose of re
paying the said loan and in lieu of
the speci-al tax now levied for the pay
ment of the principal and interest on
the said bonds, .there is 'hereby levied
a special tax of .two mills on the dol
lir of all taxable property in Stony
Battery townshiip, or 'twonship Num
ber nine, for the said period of six
vears, oin until thre said loan is paid;
that the proceeds of said levy shall be
paid each year until the total sum is
paid, both interest and prioncapl, and
the baslance of said special levy, if any
remains, shalH be applied to thre road
fund of 'Ihe said -township.
Sec. 3. That the sueprvisor and
treasurer of Newberry county aref
hereby a,uthorized to execute a note
to .the said ceommissioners of the sink
ing fund of this State for the amount
of said loan, and to pledge the said
levy for the payment of same.
Sec. 4. That imimediatel.y upon the
approval of this Act, the said the
commissioners of the sinking fund,
townships N;umbers one, eight and
nine of Newberry coun,ty, shall pro
eure said loan from said commission
ers, which shall be receipted for by
the treasurer of Newberry county and
forthwith applied to the payment of
the said bonds.
Thre tax levy in each township in
order to retire the loan in six years,
of course, is different. In No. 1 town
ship the levy for the C., N. & L. rail
road bonds -is one 'half of one mill,
and& for the Augusta, Edgefield and
Newberry road the levy is one and a
half mills. In No. 8 township the
levy is three mills and in No. '9 it is
two mills. These levies are the same
that have been made for a number of
years for this purpose, and therefore,
this plan does not increase the taxes.
"Under the Greenwood Tree."
The Omaha Daily Bee, Jan. 4.
"'Under the Greenwood T'ree"''
glows with the glamour of real ro
mance. I.t tells of love and adven
ture, of the whims of a pretty y'oung
woman who has wealth an pc, ition
but w'hose 'heart has remained un
tonhed in spite of all effor'ts of- whole
regiments of suitors, and who fi;ially
wanders awvay into the forest, there
to meet thle prince most unexpectedly,
and to fall a suddeni victim to his
glance. And t.he hero is a vouing man
of~ sabie m.ien anrd grave aspect, whose
life is devoted to a.dmiistering his
office of justice of the peace in a rur
al district, and to thrusting out wan
dering trespassers from his estate.
And 'he, too, falls into love at a
gnce. and .with a gypsy maid. who
confsses thiat she is a thi-ef and the
consor1t of thieves, and( the pirmised
bride of a most desner'ate el 1 r:'(et er.
In spite of tllis lhe wone4 hler arCh'n!
and he hiastenis away to pr'epar'e for
the wedditng that shall take place oni
SoIe ra ,ypsies. who have been in
terrupted in thler Work of looting the
vanl inl vhiell tile wealtlly yoln wo
nIln is temiporarily masquerading as
a Roianv elal. But lie is still of the
sae mind as to t4he girl when he
wakes up, and so she confesses to him
that she is not a thief. and that wha
she told him first was only half tle
truth. and in tile (1awnlIng of a beatiti
fil mornilng, undor the tlrees t hey
pledge anew their faith. and set aboua
to travel in that cold world whieb Is
the iew.
In addition to this main episode.
the comedy has also the affair of the
handsome young lady secretary of the
ealthy girl. who shows her practical
sense by taking on for marriage a sap
py lordin who has been declined with
thanks by her employer. Sone thiev
ing gypsies and the essentials, ser
vants and gamekeepers complete the
picture.
Miss Davis works unremittingly to
invest her role with the touch of real
interest needed for suceess, and that
she suceeeds at all is the highest pos
ible tribute to her ability as a come
dienne. She is pretty, has a pleasant
voice, and some quaint little ways that
erve hver well. She shows touches of
the eternal feminine in ier love
cenes and at these times fairly war
rants the enthusiastic expressions of
tre young squire, who pours out his
passion in jerky sentences, but with a
true lover's fervor.
Mr. Dexter is a most capable actor,
and is thoroughly natural and eon
vincing as the young squire who falls
in love with what lie deems to be a
bhieving gypsy girl and finally learns
e has won the heart of a wealthy so
eietv favorite. Miss Dudley is very
rood as the secretary and Mr. Van
loan shows well as the Young lord.
rhe others in sthe east do what is re
jired of them very well. Thre play
Is prettily mounted, and was well re
eived by the Sunday evening and
lence a.t the Boyd. It will be offered
again this evening and on Tuesday
?venino, and at a special matinee on
Tuesday afternoon.
