The election on the issue of bonds
for the extension of the sewerage will
be held on the 18th of this month.
In order to vote in this election it
is necessary to have a new town reg
istration certificate.
The Herald and News called atten
tion to this matter sometime ago. The
city ecuncil gave notice that the
books of registration would be open
ed for this purpose for ten days,
and the ten days for the opening of
these bcks closes today.
Yesterday less than 100 voters had
registered. This is a very important
matter, and you must have your town
registration in order to vote, and if
you do not get it today, you cannot
vote in this election.
In order to secure a town registra
tion you must produce your State reg
istration certificate, and also your
tax receipt.
Mr. 0. L. Buzhardt, the registra
tion officer, will be in his offine all
day today, and you had better attend
to this matter while you think of it.
FOR FORTY YEARS.
The Herald and News is proud of
its friends and especially those who
have proved their words by their
deeds. We have in our office bound
volumes of The Herald and News
and its predecessors back to 1859.
We have subscribers on our mailing
list whose names have been there for -
many years and whose names are still
there since we adopted the cash plan.
When we went on the cash basis we
parted with some who had had their
names on our mailing list for many
years. In appreciation of our kind
ness in sending t-he paper without pay
for so many years they became angry
and immediately proceeded to take
some other paper,or none at all.
These friends are' not worth much in
'times of trouble, but we wish them
well.
We received the following letter
tihe other day and we appreciate the
kind friend and assure those who read
it that Mr. Bedenbaugh is a young
man. He started in the right direc
tion in his youth and has not depart
ed therefrom:
Prosperity, S. C., Apr. 29, '09.
Mr. E. H. AuIl, Newberry, S. C.
Dear Sir: Enclosed please find
check for $1.50, my renewal subscrip
tion to Herald and News, beginning
May 1st, 1909. I first subscribed to
The Herald in 1869, and this will
make 40 years for me, not so had for
a young 'man!
Sineerely,
Z. W. Bedenbaugh.
Forty years is a long time and yet
looking backward it does not seem so
long. For more than half that time
t!bc present editor has been in charge
and it seems only last year that we
started.
In order to vote in the election on
the issue of bonds for the extension
of the sewerage, it is necessary to
have a registration certificate from
the town. Today is the last oppor
tunity to secure such certificate. Get
x your registration at once.
THE CIVIC ASSOCIATION.
In its appeal for the cooperation
of men and women in the movement
"for a more beautiful America,''
the American Civic association asks:
"'What are you doing to improve
and beautify your town?i
"Are you planting trees and mak
ing parks which will be God-sends to
your city later?
"Are you trying to make your
.property owners keep their yards
clean?
"Are you preventing the accumu
lation of unsightly heaps of ashes
and rubbish, encouraging the making
of ga'rdens, destroying tihe filth,
whieh not only is an annoyance to
the eve but also is a menace .to
hiealt'h?
"Are you endeavoring to stop the
erection of unsightly billboards, and
immoral posters calculated to debase
the mind of the young or tweak?
"Are y.ou helping your schl 0 chil
dren by enltiva ting in them a loxe
for the beau!tiful andl pratical .in
life?
"The American Civic assoe.iation '
stands ready to help you in these
tarings as far as it can.
Speaking for Anderson. we can
say that our .people are doing very
well. The local branch of the Civic
association has worked wonders for
Anderson. All of us who are living
here today can see and appreviate it,
benefits. but those who come after
us will be the greatest beneficiaries.
The work that has already been done
toward making Anderson a city beau
tiful can well be fruitful for scores
of years, and the work is still in pro
gress. Anderson is a more beautiful
eity now than it was a few years ago,
and it will be a more beautiful city
in the years to come than it is now,
and this is all due to the intelligent
and devoted efforts of our Civic asso
eiation and the cordial support that
organization has received.-Ander
son Mail.
And we too can say that Anderson
is doing very well but then Ander
son has a woman who is full energy
and is not easily discou,raged and
as the head of the Civic association
of that city has done a great deal to
make Anderson one of the neatest
and prettiest cities in the State. Be
fore the -work undertaken by the Civ
ic association the public square was
a wagon yard when it was not too
eep in red clay for tihe ,wagons to
stand there with safety. Now the
wagon yard is removed from the pub
tic square and it has been turned in
o a beautiful park.
The Civic association in Newberry
s working along the same lines and
;hould have the aid and encourage
nent of all of our people.
Anderson is more beautiful now
;han it has been for years because of
;he untiring efforts of the Civic as
;oeiation.
We say this for encouragement of
,ose connected with our Civic asso
:iation and we hope they will con
inure to work even though often
;imes in the face of open opposition.
Register today for the election on
:he issue of bon.ds for the extension
f sewerage.
Why not investigate and discover
wha.t the real trouble at Clemson is?
he institution is .too big and .re'pre
sents too mueh to be left to news
paper correspondence to settle. If
there is anything wrong lets have it
out. If there is nothing wrong, lets
say so and be done with it. If this
cannot be brought about in any
other way, why not call upon the
Clemson alumni to come together
and demand that the credit and peace
and efficiency of their Alma Mater
be left undisturbed '?-Piedmont.
That proposition is alright but it
will scarcely be necessary as it is
sarcely possible the board of trus
tees will fail o~r decline to investigate
affairs and endeavor to straighten
matters out. It should be done by the
oard. It cannot be done by the
newspapers.
HON. B. R. TTLTMA.N AND THE
UNITED STATES SENATE.
Some of ethe newspapers aire be
ginning to name a successor to Sen
ator Tillman, 'should that distinguish
ed gentleman decide not to stand for
re-election. This is a case of counting
ehikens before they are hatehed.
Tillman 's ihealth is improving, and
lie will stand for re-election and wvill
go back to the senate without oppo
sition as he did before. There was
a time when we believed Tillman
eould have been beaten, but that time
is past. He has made himself a fix
tre, so recognized all over the Union.
But should he not stand for the sen
ate again, we agree with the Orange
burg Times and Democrat that Con
gressm'an Lever will be a strong can
didate to succeed him. Lever has
worked hard and faithful, and de
serves promotion.-Manning Times.
it is true that Mr. Tillman has de
veloped rapidly since he entered the
senate and is a prominent figure in
American politics. He does things
and says things that many in his
own State do not approve. But he
has become a man of much influence
in affairs of state at Washington.
And it is true that Carolina will re
turn him to the senate as often as he
wishes t'hat to be done.
But, if the good Carolinians will
accept the intimation, if Mr. Tillman
should not 'wish to go the senate
again, there are many persons in the
South who would be pleased if Ca.r
olina would honor Editor Hemphill,
of Charleston. witih a seat in the
American lords.-Augusta Chronicle.
Editor Hemiphill would fill the bill
with credit to himself and his State.

The enormous fee which the press
claimed that the firm of Felder and

I re.ad an advertisement the ot'her
day in a newspaper. Yes, 'I some
times read advertisements. You know'
it depends largely on what you put
in your advertisements'whether they
'are read. But I did not start out to
lecture on advertising. It is the sub
ject matter of this particular adver
tise'ment. It was a bank advertise
ment and contained ?a quotation from
Nelson Morris, the Chicago million
Iaire packer. The 'head line ran ''$5
a month can Imake a man rich.''
Now most anybody can make $5 a
month but it is the man who can save
$5 a month who gets rieh. Now, I
don't believe in 'making money just
to save it 'but there is a simple les
son in bookkeeping that every young.
man ought to learn as soon as lhe is~
'old enough to spend or make money.
That lesson is always to spend less
than he earns.
-0
The great .trouble with every young
rperson starting in life is to save the
first $100, but ii this little rule I
have given is learned and practiced
then the foundation for success is
laid.
-0
But I rwant to tell you how this
Chicago millionaire made his millions
on a start of $5 a month. It is worth~
quoting in this col'umn and is good
stuff for a bank advertisement. Here:
is wihat ~he says:
''I begani my career at a wage of'
my board and $5 a month. I 'had
saved $35 at tihe end of the first year
and then I went into business for my
self.
''Young man, it is the easiest thing
in the world, this making money. All
you need is resolution to spend less
than you make and a cheerful dis
position that will permit of no dis-,
couragement to turn you aside from
your purpose.''
''Now go to work and aim for the
highest place in your business. You!
can get there if you 'honestly try.
But whlatever you do, do it honestly.'
That is good advice, ain't it? If
you don't start right, though, it will
be mighty hard to follow this advice
after you get old.
I don't believe much in these mon
ey tvorshippers-those fellows4 who
think t:lhe dollar is the only thing
worthI w'hile-and yet, and yet.-wfll

But don't you forget there is a

There are things in this world,

WV. Q. Hi.pp, of Pomaria, was in
Newberry the other day. I
mean Mose Hipp. Just how
they get Mose out of W. Q. I
don't know but I do know that he is
better known as Mose Hipp. Well,
you know this is the same Mose Hipp
who claimed that he had a chicken
hen 26 years old and The Herald and
News published it as if it were true,
and it may have been. The editor
printed a picture of this hen and
Mose. The poor aged hen has since
died a natural deatih and was given a
hristian burial by Mose. He says
that is true and, therefore, it cannot
be true as the editor of the Ander
son Mail stated at the time, that 'he
had just eaten that hen at the New
berry hotel. That was before Alex.
Brown had charge of the hotel. So
much for the hen and by way of in
troduction.
-o
When Mose was in town the other
day I heard h.im telling the editor
that he had a white oak tree in the
corner of his yard that was 106 years
old and he knew it, that he could
trace its history back that far and he
gave -the names of his authority, but
I think they are all dead now. But
Mose says that tree two feet above
the ground measures 27 feet in cir
cumference or 9 feet in diameter and
that it is not like 'the trees of Cali
fornia, 'hollow in the centre, but that
it is solid. And the editor said he
was going down to Moses's and see
it and take a ~picture of it. Well, I
hope he and Mose will take somebody
along to verify what the editor has
to say about it when he comes back.
-o
Just measure off 9 feet and then
look at some of these big oaks about
here and see how far under 9 feet
they are in diameter. Then you can
have some idea how big a tree 9 feet
in diameter is. Mose says its t'he big
gest tree in the State and I guess he
is correct. Mose is a big hearted
good fello'w and everybody likes him.
