Another letter has been received by zhe editor of The Herald and News frcm President W. W. Finley, of the Southern railway, in reference to the light which The H-rald and News has been urging council to have placed in Friend street near the union station crossing, and which last year's coun cil ordered, but which was not placed because it was stated the Southern would not permit the light within a certain number of yards of its track. Now that there is no objection from the Southern authorities, as explained by President Finley, it is very much hoped that council will take favorable action in the ma ter. A light is badly needed at this p< nt. The crossing ought also to be im proved. In bad weathe'r it is almost impassable. Following is ,the letter from Presi dent Finley: Washington, D. C., Jan. 25, 1911. My Dear Mr. Aull: Referring to my letter to you of the 6th instant rela tive to -a paragraph published in The Herald and News of the! 3rd instant regarding the darkness which sur rounds the union station in Newberry, stating that it is understood that "the reason city council did not put a light in Friend street the Souhern railway objeced to onle closer than 30 yards of 'the track." I am advised by Mr. E. H. Coapman, vice-president and general maniger of this company, that up to -the time this paragraph was wrtten nothing had been said to Sup erintendent Williams with respect to the town of Newberry placing a pole for light on our premises and that when the matter was subsequently taken up with -him by the people of Niewberry, Mr. Williams promptly ad vised them that there would be no ob-' jeetions to placing the pole at a proper location when,'they saw fit to do so. In view of this information I think that if it is the desire of the city auth orities to place a light njear the sta tion they will have 'no difficulty in reahing an agreement with Mr. Wil ims as to a location that will be mt. tu'ally satisfactory to the city and to this company. With sincere regards and best wishes, I am, Yours truly, W. W.- Finley, .President. Attended Atlanta Convention. Capt. W. S. Langford attended the third annual convention of the Coca Cola Bottlers' convention in Atlapta last week, and he 'reports a most en joyable meeting. The convention was 'hed in the Piedmont hotel, and was welcomed by Asa G. Chandler, presi dent of the' company. Pleasant fea tures of the -meeting were the elabor ate reception and the s'moker, with which the convention was 'brought to a close. The lobby of the Piedmont hotel h'ad been specially decorated in honor of the gathering, and everything possiible was done to make the -members feel a hearty welcome and 'to make th~etir stay peasant.

Barnwell People, 26th. At the court house last Thursday State Lecturer J. B. O'Neall Holloway, of Newberry, gave a most interesting and instructive address on -the princi ples of the Farmers' union. Mr. Hol loway had been filling appointments in Bamberg county for a week or more, I and he concluded his visit with the neeting last Thursday. Mr. Holloway's address was interesting and instruc tive. He took up the principles of the Farmers' union and discussed them intelligently 'and forcefully. Those present we f'eel sure enjoyed 'his ad dress, for there was no attempt to ar ray the farmers against any other class,' but a 'broad, lberal spirit per meated his remarks. There were no appeals 'to -prejudice, as we have 1:is tened to unfortunately in the past from some so-ca-lled f.riends of the farmer, and we feel sure the meeting and ad dress will do much .good for the cause of the Farmers' union in this county.
