NEWBERRY'S POLICE OFFICERS Something of the Men Who Are the Conservators of the Peace-4Good Order Prevails. The Herald and News presents today cuts of the police officials of the city. There has been such good order in the city for so long a time s:nd so little work really for the po licemen to do that some of our peo ple may not know that we have a police offioer in the town. This has been true for a year or more, in fact, it is always pleasant -to be able to say that the police have nothing to do. They are one set of officers that everybody prefers shall have as little to do as possible. Now and then some one gets a little more booze in a prohibition town tha.n he ought to have and as a result he is taken in cdtody, either for that reason, or because as the result of his imbibing too freely he gets into a disturbance with some one, at any rate it is a compliment not only to the good order of the people of the community, but also to the efficiency of the police that there is not much doing. Chief C. W. Bishop. The present chief of police hasI done service in that capacity for a number of years and under several adminisrations Chr C. W.

Franklint has the dis tinction of having served continual ly, with the exception of possibly a few months, longer on the force than any other man in the history of the town. He first became a po 3ieeman in 1884, 26 years ago, and, as stated, has been on the force in Newberry since that time with the exception of a few months. He is a native of the county and came to the city when he was about :twenty yvears old and clerked for four or five years. The few months he was off duty as policeman, he took a position on the railroad but resigned that and came back to the police force. .*...... .... .. WM policeman R. P. rklin. Mr. R. P.

He is a son of Magis trate J. H. Chappell and was born in the city of Newberry. He never drank or used tobacco in any form.
