We notice from the news columns of the News and Courier that the business men of Darlington, more than one hundred strong, have organ ized a business men's association and have employed Mr. J. E. Norment as secretary and treasurer at a salary of $75 per month. It is stated that the business men in the meeting to or ganize this association were earnest and enthusiastic and that the organ izaition is for the purpose of looking to the future advancement of the city of Darlington and the county of Dar lington. That is the only way to keep a city and county in the forefronct in this age of rapid progress and develop ment. We have a membership in our chamber of commerce, at present, of more than 100, but what we need is a sufficient income to pay a respecta ble salary to the secretary so that he migbit devote his entire time to the advancement and the development of the community. We need in addition to that a united sentiment on the part of our business men and a determina tion that every one of them shall lay aside his little hammer and say some thing good of his community and of the people who compose it. Newberry and Newberry county have great possibilities. These can not be attained unless our business men present a united front for tha advancement of the community. We must determine that the croakers and the knockers shall be brushed aside and that we are going to present a united front when it comes to any thing that is calculated to advance the community commercially and in every other way that means the very high est type of citizenship. LET THE WOXEN ORGANIZE. We notice from the Atlanta Consti tution that "the Atlanta women well organized, and 5,000 strong, have put themselves back of the fight for a cleaner and more sanitary and more atitractive city." They have set aside October 26 as cleaning up day. That will mean something for Atlanta be cause when 5,000 women organize for any purpose, determined to do things, there will be something doing. If we could get 500 women in Newberry organized for a cleaner and more sani tary city, there would be something doing here and instead of the unat tractive vacant lots growing up in weeds, and the dirty streets and wag on yards in front of the public square, we would have an attractive city. There would not be even a suggestion looking to the repeal of the ordinance taking the wagons from the public square in front of the old court house. If our women could all see the beautiful square with its parks at Greenwood and try to think how the square looked before it was parked, we believe they could be organized for the small effort, looking to the parking of our public square. The city is spending plenty of, money annually on streets to have better streets, but this will never be done until it is gone at in a business way. We are not critisizing any of. the city officers, but everyone knows and will admit that it is a fact that with the amount of money 'the city is spending on its streets, it would be economy to employ a man who knows something about street building. In other words the city ought rto have a civil engineer and the work that is now being done, if done under his di rection and done as pe-manent work, would in a few years show results. As it is now we are just trying to clean out the ditches to have them fill up after each rain and whatever work is done washed away by every rain that comes. We wish there was some way by which we could arouse the women of Newberry to organize and unite for a cleaner and more sanitary city. We have tried the men, but they are all L too busy getting rich to pay any at-: tention to the aesthetic side of life. It is only two weeks now until the State fair and the usual low rates; have been advertised on the roads and special trains will be run. The price; of cotton is good and fine corn crops have been made and it is expected that there will be a great gathering of the people from South Carolina in Columbia during fair week. The collision on Sunday on the C. & W. C. is said to be due to the fact that the agent at McCormick was so busy selling tickets that he forgot to give one of the trains the meet or ders. It would have been infinitely better not to have sold any tickets at all at McCormick than to have had the terrible accident resulting from the attention of the operator being at tracted to selling tickets rather than to the importance of orders which, be cause of non-delivery caused a large loss in property and a dozen lives. Probably if the railroads would not insist upon people who travel on mil eage securing itickets for their mil eage, the agent would not have been so busy. About "Free" Passes. Union Progress. If there is one thing the general public envies the newspaper man, it is the privilege he enjoys of traveling or witnessing things on account of a pass, the impression prevailing that the newspaper man gets "something for nothing." Under ordinary circumstances there never was a greater mistake, for while there is a certain satisfaction in get ting transportation or admission to various places by presentng a small slip of pink or green paper, where others have to put up the hard cash, still the word "free" is a misnomer, for in return for the aforesaid bits of paper, the editor has already given or is expected to give, much valuable space for advertisements or comments that will be so favorable as to be of great benefit to the person or com panies who graciously bestow the so called "free passes;" space that if paid for at the regular rates would usually far exceed the equivalent of' the pass. In this eq(inettion the following clipped from a religious paper may prove interesting: "Hidden away in a lot of advertise ments in a circular issued by the New Berford, Martha's Vineyard and Nan tuick-et Steamboat company, we find! the following quaint announcement. It must have set thousands to thinking: "In Those Days There Were NO PASSES GIVEN. Search the Scriptures. Thou shalt not pass.-Numbers 20: 18. They suffered not a man to pass-' Judges 3:28. The wicked shall no more pass-Na hum 1:15. None shall pass through it forever Isaiah 34:10. This generation shall not pass-Mark 13:30. Neither doth any son of man pass Jeremiah 5:22. SO HE PAID THE FARE THEREOF AND WENT-Jonah 1:3. A Foolhardy Grand Jury. Anderson Mail. In opening the court of sessions at Edgefield this week Judge Gage corn mented on the congested condition of the docket. The grand jury in their presentment said in reply: "We noted carefully your honor's remarks concerning the congested condition of the docket. We would like to state that a large part of this unfinished business was caused by the presiding judge of our August term of court adjourning court after a two arnd one-half days' session, one entire day of which time was consum ed in trying a case transferred from Saluda county. We are aware that this county has suffered thereby, de laying justice, leaving persons in jail that should have been tried, and now taking jurors and witnesses from their business during a very busy season, thereby making it a hard ship, especially on the farmers." No doubt what this grand jury says is true. But it was a breach of the proprieties to say it and this grand jury had better look out. If it is notl careful it will be called down from the bench for making an attack on the judiciary. NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEXrENT.
