E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. Saturday, November 26, 1910. HUXAN FRAILTY. Summary vengeance was wreaked upon a negro a few hundred yards be low the Newberry line, in Lexington county, last right. A horrible crime had been perpetrated-a crime cal eulated to make boil the blood of even the Co ,Iest men. It is useless to go into the whys and wherefores of a case of this kind. So long as the Anglo-Saxon race is ] the Anglo-Saxon race, if this crime is committed and if the opportunity can be taken advantage of, there will be summary vengeance. The Herald and News believes in law and order, and stands for law and order, but we are not at this hour of the night, fresh from the scene of the crime where lies the dead body of the young victim of the attempted as- 2 sault, prepared to condemn the harsh measures which were taken, nor shall we do so. There are limits to human andur ance. t NEWSPAPER ENDEAVOR. The Herald and News issues an ex-. tra edition this morning, because we believesthe news value justifies it, and because w,e try to give the news while it is news. Our subscribers always expect It of us when there is a story of this kind, and so long as we are - in the newspaper business we shall run a newspaper. t EDITOR CALDWELL.( Throughout North Carolina there a .will be a recurrence of pain over the 1 distressing announcement that Editor ~ Joseph P. Caldwegl, of the Charlotte Observer, had another stroke of pa ralysis on Tuesday at Morganton. The t~ Observer yesterday says that Mr. Cald- x well rallied on Wednesday and while 2 his condition was "considered satis t factory" by his physicians, we fear, there is nothing upon which to base a hope that Carolina's distinguished edi- if tor will ever again be able to write E for us the articles which aifternatedC IC thetween honest and fearless opinion, calm and cheer'ful philosophy, and the pleasantry and humor that made Mr. Cald'well the past master of per- I sifiage. It is a sad reflection that an 3 editor so gifted and useful is laidj low by an affliction relief from which we scarceily dare expect. Nevertheless' we hope that Editor Caldwell will be t spared yet a while.-Wilmington Star. ~ Editor Caldwell has thousands of ., friends In South Carolina who sympa- f thize with him in his illness, and who hope that he wilIl soon be restored to e his accustomed health. The "deacon"-Editor Hemphill has left us for Richmond, where he is i now holding forth, and we hope the "elder"~ will long hold forth in his Charlotte bailiwick, in health and strength. SEC'Y. ADAMS OF GREENVILLE. i .Goes.Back Home and in Chiaracterdie Manner Boosts Meeting Held in1 Newberry. Gareenville Piedmont. i Mr. E. B. Adams, secretary of the board of trade, returned from Newber- i xy, where he has been in att-ndance I upon a meeting of the N -wherry chamber of commerce. This was a business meeting and several secre taries of the chambers of commerce of the State were invited to attend. Mr.1 dams made an address before the Newberry body which is published be low. 1 - The meeting was held in the chamn-i ber of commerce rooms in Newbarry, and about 250 were present. The evening's program began about 6.30 with an hour's concert by the New- 1 berry band. The business meeting ! was called to order at 8 o'clock by the president, Mr. I. H. Hunt. There were several speakers present f-om \ewberry who had to take the 9 I )'clock train, and these were called on c irst. Mr. A. D. Hudson, of the farm b lemonstration work, made an excel- c ent talk on the work that was baing 1 lone in the county by his department 0 )f the government. Representative f Wyche spoke on good roads, and Mr. r lolloway, Farmers' Union organizer, a alked on the assistance that chain- v >ers of commerce may be to the far ners. These gentlemen were heartily Lpp0lauded. Under the head of reports of com nittees about twelve chairmen were ieard from. The chairman of the ommittee on new members reported Lbout 167 new members of the cham >er of commerce received within the C ast year. Among the visiting secretaries were 0 dessrs. Adams, of Greenville, Cun- b iingham, .of Newberry; Hamby, of olumbia; Carpenter, of Anderson, C Lnd Dr. Hunter, of Prosperity. All of hese made interesting talks except s dr. Cunningham, who gave way to the C 7isitors. Dr. J. W. Folk, of Jalapa, T Lnd Mr. A. D. Hudson, of Newberry, )resident of the South Atlantic Corn s xposition, also made interesting alks. Mr. Hamby, of the Columbia t hamber of commerce, made an ex- p ellent speech on the subject, "A 0 reater South Through a Greater c o'h Carolina." He suggested that t: he commercial boards take young t nen into their ranks and give them a )1enty to do. t The Newberry chamber of com aerce is to hold another meeting -on t he 20th of December, at which time a special banquet will be served. Mr. 1 Wdams and Mr. Hamby were invited I o attend the meeting and the ban- C tuet. The visitors were given a ride over he city by the Newberry hosts. The visitors report that they were 0 -oyally entertained by the Newberry b >usiness men, and they all left the ity singing the praises of the cham- b ier of commerce and its hospitality. 0 Secretary Adams, in his talk, spoke t: a part as follows: s "When I recei'ed a long distance elphone message from your presi- t lent, Mr. Hunt, yesterday morning, b sking me if I would come down to C ewberry for this evening I answered ight away that I would. I still have i aost pleasant recollections of a visit o o your city several months ago. You n :now a secretary never gets a chance t o talk in his own town except to o :ommittees and we are but human so 1F re natuzrally like to go abroad and c iurden others with what we are c hinking about. t "When your president asked me to ti ay a few words to you I hesitated, s iut thought of a little joke and I h ake my cue from it. One of America's d ost widely known ambassadors was ttending a banquet in London, and he king was present. At-the side of C he ambassador was one of the first ti dies of the land. During the course a f the evening the lady dropped an egg S rom her lilate to the floor. She turn- a d to the ambassador and asked in ex- s itement, "What must I do, ambassa- tl or?" And he suggested in that char .cteristic way so peculiar to him, a why cackle, madam, cackle." fi "Mr. Hunt tells me that this is sim- a ly a business meeting, so I suppose p ou are interested in those things for t< he good of your organization. a "I want to go a round-about-way to e 'ring a matter to your attention. c. "During the last twelve months in 'I he city of Greenville 69 new bnsiness c Louses and .manufacturing plans were tl stablish'd r.L.d started in operaton3f.

Washington, Nov. 24.-National ommitteeman John G. Capers today ;sued manifesto No. 2 to the G. 0 P. f So.ith Carolina, Number 1, havia-11 een issued just prior to the "Lily 7hite" convention held in Columbia ctober 27. Copies of this manifesto have been nt to all of those who attended the in rlumbia convention, with the watch- m ird "organize." In this communication Mr. Capers lys: "I have purposely waited until after e election before referring to the Re- tl ublican convention held in Columbia s n October 27. All of us realized, of es urse, that the probabilities were tb iat a Democratic wave wouild sweep (I ie country as it frequently does in h( n off year, and I waited, as I wanted > address a few lines to you in the C vent of such a thing to urge you to St ike courage and renew your 'efforts n; long all proper lines looking to the erfection and strength of the Repub- S can organization we made good at ar olumbii. f: Organize Counties. tc "If you have not already done so. t me urge that a county Republican 'f rganization, based upon the Colum- bE ia organization of October 27, be per- cc cted in your county. That should le e followed by a regular call and the rganization of the congressional dis 'ict and the election of a congres onal chairman and a secretary. in "Reports are to the organizations in to ie counties'and in the districts should e sent to State Chairman Blalock at T -oldvi]A#e, S. C. N "Remember we took the keynote or C: ispiration for the reorganization of 'o ur party from President Taft's state- Im ent at Greensboro, N. C., more than G. iree years ago when he was secretary 't f war, in which he rebuked Southern u~ epubhcans for having with few ex- J< ptions what he termed 'only a small b( yterie of Federal office-holders who 45 yok no interest in the organization of ieir party or in its elections, but who emed busy only in their efforts to old their federal jobs and to control m legates to the national conventions.' cI Three States Excepted. fr "He made an exception of North p arolina, Tennessee and Virginia in ly us statement, and it was our effort, th ad shall still be our effort to put a outh Carolina where that State can iso be made an exception to such de- th 3rved rebuke. Do not be alarmed, a erefore, it some of those higher up , 'ho claim to represent the president g re now deliberately organizing the of- p e-hdlders in the State, at least all be lthem who can be managed for the urpos'e of 'controlling the delegation' y the next national convention. Such organization of federal office-hold is will have to form a third republi n party in South Carolina, for Joe i olbert and his sixty-six varieties aim to be th'e Republican party of ci ue State. We know that we are the in .eputican party of the State, -and, uerefore, this fed'eral office-holders -ust now being organized must come 14 ito the regular party with us; go to :e and his sixty-six colored boys or - :and out in plain, direct, opposition 2 the known and expressed senti ents of the presi'dent 'as a coterie of gi ~deral office-holders looking only to B ue retention of. their federal jobs and tl ie control of a delegation to the next ti ational convention.' t Has Inside "Tips."o "I know more than I care to disclose ia hy certain people reversed themsel- cc es as to sustaining our convention o! di ctober 27, but it will ala come out .ght in due time, and as we represent e only real Republican organization iSouth Carolina, all we have to do ;to unselfishly press forward and aintain the high ground taken at ie Columbia convention. "No severe criticism should be made D r the office-holders in the State, whop ia spirit of loyalty to the 'appoint-b tent power,' whatever their amaze- h ient must have been, halted 'or mark- I l time, and who stil. halt or mark th me, that is a matter which will work st self out. "All we know is that there is not a c ingle official of our Republican or- f anization who holds a federal office. or is there one whom you would!F esitate to call your friend. "'Organize,' is the watch word, and sport to State Chairman Blalock~ at oldville, or State Secretary D. H. Tallace, at Hopkins, S. C." A Weak Point In the Defense.b Even the honest evidence in a case ci tay be very plausible and convincing r tno a crtain point but fall to the1 di 'ound on that point. Such was th Lse with a negro interviewed by a r( gious worker visiting a Souther mitentiary. "Of what were you accused?" th -isoner was asked. "Dey says I took a watch," answe I the :iegro. "I made a good figh had a dandy lawyer, an' he dor -ove an alibi wif ten witnesses. De .y lawyer he shore made a stron )eech to de jury. But it wa'n't n ;e, sar; I gets ten years." "I don't see why you were not ai iitted," said the religious worker. "Well, sah," explained the prisone rou see dere was one weak spot 'boi y defense-dey done found de watc my pocket." His View. "This little girl won't have a do] rants a toy dog." "Looks like the true society mothE stinct," suggested the other-a mer an, of course.-Louisville Herald. SALE OF REAL ESTATE.
