Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Tuesday, January 24, 1911. We can see no reason to criticize Gov. Blease for revoking the commis sions of the notaries public and rec ommending some legislation in regard to the office, but on the contrary, the . act should be commended. The gov ernor might have given a little more time for adjustment. The office is an important one. We agree with Dr. Meldau that Newberry should have a hospital, but it should be off the main street and with sufficient grounds to give pienty of fresh air and restful surroundings. Some tihie ago the question was agi fated by the physicians of the city and others and it looked like a hospital, but recently there has been no noi'se that sounded that way. TOWNSHIP RAILROAD BONDS. The report of Secretary Fref. H. Dominick, of the sinking fund com mission for Newberry, Mendenhall and Stoney Battery townships, which is published in ful1 In ttis issue of The Heraid and News, makes the very fine dh*wing for the years 1908 and 1909, and including the amount for this year, of a saving to these town obips of $3,623 in inteirest on railroad bonds of the three townships, at the very slight leapense of $179.66. The aggregate amount of the ori ginal issues of these bonds was $75, 000. The aggregate aomunt of the bonds yet outstanding in $46,200. Secretary Dominick estimate that, including the amounts now on hand and tobe ealized from the collection o)f taxes for 1910, and after the pay ment of interest due in January, June and July, ther:e -will be due and owing on ala the bonds of a total of, $37,650, or oniy one-half of the original amount of bonded indebtedness. The. secretary calls attention to the fact that certain Acts have been pass ed undier which the commision un jdertook to borrow .money from the State sinking fund commission to re tire all the bonds, but fai-led, fsor the reasons stated. He reconmmends the passage of an Act at this session au tihorizing the Stalte sinking fund comn mission to lend the amount needed to the county, and states his reasons for believing that the loan go'uld be secur ed at 'this time, thereby a,ccel:exating +e payment of the bonds and saving~ the townships thousands of dollars in interest without the slightest increase' in thie tax levy. There wongd seem to be every rea son 'why the Newberry delegaition would act 'upon this suggestion, ami as matter of fact we can see no reason whatever why it should not It is at matter of plain figures, and a matter of lifting a part of the burden under h~ieh these townships 'have labored and aire laboring. Secretary Dominick has done a reat deal of work in connection with this matter. The work has been ad mirably done, and his. efforts should be appr'eciated. There is *a mass of details connected with the work, anid it has required good business .iudg ment to handle the situation withr which the commission -was confronted and to achieve the results which the report shows. The report is an illuminating expo sition of what has been accomplished and of the present gratifying status. We have no doubt the Newberry del egation will act prompty upon Secre tary Dominick's suggestion as con tained therein. PROTESTiNTS AND CATHOLICS. The Anderson Mail has a very strong editorial stating its reasons for not 'publishing an abuse of the Catholic church and its ministers in answer to an a.rticle from the Rev. A. K. Gwynn, of the Catholic church, in which Mr. Gwynn alleged that one Dwyer, who hias been poing as a "reformed" Catholic priest, and making some sevewe arraignments of the Catholic sustain his allogation." The -Anderson Mail puts it thus strongly-and the Mail is right: "We would not let a Catholic priest I use the columns of this paper to abuse the Protestants, and common decency would keep us from permitting a. Pro-! testant minister use the paper to abuse the Catholics, although the Catholics are in a hopeliess minority in this part of the country and al though abuse of the Catholics is about the whole stock in trade of some Pro testant ministers." We are somewhat surprised that the Anderson Intelligencer should have published this letter, which the Mail refused to publish. It is none of our affair, but we have read the letter in the Intelligencer, and if we understand the Christian spirit, this letter is certainly lacking in it. Mr. Dwyer was in Newberry ar raigning the Catholic church, and The Herald and News published in reply to- Dwyer the letter of the Rev. Mr. Gwynn. We thoug;ht it was due the Catholic church and its members that this reply be.published. We know some mighLygood Protes tants, and we know some mighty good Catholics. The present chief justice of the supreme court of the United States is a Catholic. We regret to state that there are no doubt some mighty bad Protestants and some mighty bad Catholics. It ds not our purpose to go into a discussion of the relative merits -of the beliefs of Catholics and Protestants. But we do want to say that we believe vituperation and abusle heaped upon Catholics by Protestants or upon Pro testants by.Catholics will hurt those from whoAi it comes more than 'those at whom it is aimed. What we need in the world is more brotherly spirit and more Christian charity-and some Protestants whd bave 'been' abusing the Catholics are sadly in need of it. No church organ ization is perfect, because nothing is perfect this side of heavent, but let's each help the 'other in the good it is doing. National Lectoder of W. C. T. U. Miss Rihena E. G. Mosher, B. S., of Westfield, N. J., field secretary of the Young Woman's branch and national lecturer of .the Woman's Christian Temperanioe union, will lecture Wed nesday 'evening at 7.30 o'clock in thq Methodist church. A collection wil be taken. She will also lecture at the high school Thursday morning, and at the college auditorium Friday morning at 8.45 o'clock. . Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock the ~residence of Mrs. J. W. White there will be a special meeting for the public school teach s. Al1 ~e memnbers and friends of 'the Iion ainvited to at tend. At the close of this meeting there will be a social feature and music. . Thursday evnng at 7.30 o'clock Mis's Mosher wil1. lecture at O'Neall treet church. , Miss Mosher is a taliented woman, a conservative speaker, who appeals to the reason .than the prejudice of her hearers. 'Her discourses are powerful appeals for righLteous 'living in the ~hom'e and nation. "Miss Mosher is one of the most winning and cultured of the National W. C. T. U. ,speakers. During her stay in Virginia she has won high praise as a speaker of vim, fiuency an!d convinc in'g appeal. She is a fine type 'of -hristian womanhood and patriotic belief and none but a charmed aud-' ience leaves after hearing her talk. A 'refreshing wit 'and humor make a noticeable departure from the usual1 speaker.-Roanoke (Va.) News. Searcy, Ark., Daily Citizens, says that her *ast traveling and varied ex perience 'has furnished 'her with a great store of usefu:1 information, amusing incidents and pathetic point~s. Her originality was a gun that added excellence to 'her strong 'argumen~ts against itemnperance. All agree that this 'was 'the best lecture deivered in Searcy. Rev. W. H. Boutbon, of Union Ci,ty, Tenn., said, I have 'heard Miss Willard and ,many other famous speakers of' hler sex, and I amn frank in saying that Miss Mosher will not suffer in comparison with the best of them. She is doing a great good and merits the sympathy and cooperation of all Christian and temperance workers. IThe Trouble With Some Nen. Atchison Globe.
