Speaking anarchically, we glory in this delightful spring weather. ??T - -1- *V . roCOi " Rllt. wh0' ULIt) ucakucu iatjv. * a~e the heathen? The other fellow, of course. We are living An deadly fear of the bombs that the many thousands of j anarchists 11 South Carolina are pre-1 paring to hurl. f I We "were glad to see the Easter j shoppers from the little towns of Greenwood and Laurens. Come often i and secure bargains. I T mm We are confident that Doc. Cook was J at the South pole before Scott or Amundsen. We can't believe that Vawhmv's adoDted son failed us in this. And still the wonder grows that Governor Blease's appointment of a Tirjcrrn sorter was not carried to the XX W3* V x courts to have its legality passed upon. Talkiug about anarchy, what is a good name for defiance of law ana 01 constituted authority by those who would disregard the law because it is sought to be administered by one not to their liking? We don't know which is worse?the poetry of Editor Banks, of the Anderson Mail, or the envy of Newberry which Editor Gardener, of the Greenwood Daily Journal, is constantly displaying in the strained jokes which he seeks to direct at Newberry. A gentleman from the country says when he heard the fire whistle on Saturday morning at 3 o'clock he got down his shot gun, thinking possibly it was the roar of one of those blind tigers that people say are in Newberry, but tHe lairs 01 waicu nouuuv know. Attorney General Lyon objected to Mr. Wallace, of the Blease dispensary commission, giving opinion evidence. Wonder if the attorney general recalls the time when he sought to force Mr. W. G. Childs to recount "jokes" to " *- * + nf xchich ail invesugauiis wn?'ii*wv, Mr. Lyon was a member. The Herald and News has received a communication, which we would be very much pleased to print, in regard to the rest room, but the name of the author does not accompany the article.! If the writer will furnish his or her name, not for publication, but for the information of the office, we will be nleased to print the communication. I If Beattie. the Virginia wife murderer, had been convicted in South Carolina, he would probably have had a pardon by now.?Greenwood Daily Journal. It would hardly have done him much ! good after he was dead. But maybe the Greenwood Daily Journal failed to notice that Beattie had been electro cuted. irirT-? Win The Greenville Piedmont suggests j that if fear of arrest is what keeps : Felder away from South Carolina, the I committee might meet him and take | the testimony over in Augusta. The idea is entirely practicable; but if fear of arrest is one of Mr. Felder's reasons for not coming to South Carolina, it is not the only reason. The main reason is that Mr. Felder has already got- j ten all the money there was in it, and that was absolutely and entirely all that he wanted. He cars no more ah i r\r\ 1 r\ t* Oornlirtn n T* ilkfUli'L l-llV kjl oj uui uui j th^ir laws than hp does about the Fiji islanders. Whiie it can hardly bo said that be s:ot all he wanted, his interest ceased when he realized thni" he had gotten all that hp woaltl likely he ab'C to get.?Yorkville Enquirer. According to our way of thinking, that about sizes up the situation. / The Mullins Messenger tells the story of a badly taught parrot which perched itself upon a pulpit durii4f service, and in the midst of the sermon, looking at the preacher and the congregation, said :"D?n you! D?n you! D?n you!" The preacher and the congregation fled, but there was an old woman on crutches who could not get out. The parrot faced the good old woman with a continuation of his "d?n you!," and the woman, being unable to do anything else, raised her crutch and said, "D?n you some, too!" Mr. Blease has said some things which we have not approved of, and do not approve of, but in reviewing some of his harsh language, we might think of how .many times the "d?n you" was applied to him before he sot a chance. The Spartanburg Journal very thoughtlessly says that Hon. Cole. L. Blease continues to give daily illustrations of his eminent qualifications to,resume the practice of law at New berry, s. u.?u-reenvuie jrieuxuuun.. Newberry, S. C? is a mighty good place to practice law in, to furnish governors, or for anything else. We don't mean that people from Spartanburg, S. C., or from Greenville, S. C., would be able to practice law here without some additional special training, 'but they might learn. """* J - ? i n> fnnu'cln'TIO' .tjy me way, -\cnuwij ^ iuiuiuuu.e candidates for nearly every, office, and we hereby place Doc. Cook, who planted the Stars and Stripes on the North pole, in nomination for the vicepresidency, on the Democratic and Republican tickets. We want him on both, so as to eliminate every chance of his defeat. Doc. Cook wasn't born in Newberry, but he is a Newberriai] by adoption. DAMAGING ADMISSIONS. Former Chief Justice Jones is toning down his remarks a little. According to the Greenville News report of his speech at Fountain Inn on Thursday, the ex-chief justice does "not mean to say that every man whc voted for Governor Blease is an anarchist." Even if half of them were an archists, South Carolina might put Russia to shame along that line. But it is something to have the minority admit that not every one of the majority of 1910 is an anarchist. The former chief justice went further. He even went to the -extent of saying he knows "that there are a lot of good people throughout the State who cast their ballots for him." Shades of Gonzales! Is it possible that it is admitted there was a single decent citizen who voted for Blease in 1910! It is with much concern for Mr. Jones that we await any further admissions from him. It wouldn't take many like that for him to admit himself out of the favor of those great, good, glorious and pure people whose hearts are pained that South Caro! lina, not being subject to their every beck and call, is bound straight for I + V?o.4- nl.n n/\ Af TxrVii/vVi ontn Trrnfa UlXd t ?> ?SCLL1L& >? i Vlt, Mr. Carlisle, of the investigating committee, brought out in the testimony last week, and the newspapers feature it, that Mr. Dominick had a pass, which he used on the C., N. & L. railroad, and charged railroad fare against the State. Mr. Dominick did not secure his pass 011 the railroad by virtue of his position 011 the commission, but for his service as local coun sel, and the State has no right to receive credit for railroad fare when Mr. Dominick was using the pass, and there is absolutely nothing in the intimation that it was wrong to charge up railroad fare. If Mr. Dominick had received the pass on account of his position on the commission, then it would have belonged to the State, and it would nave been wrong for him to charge railroad fare when using it. The State when paying the committees to investigate should specify an amount for expenses. This amount shoiii J be large enough to cover actual exp^n -^s, iin i th-en if a member oi' the coimnitteo should decide to walk to the iiHcliiig and carry his lunch in a 7- ?

We have been told that there were investigating committees who charged up as actual expenses the cost of shoe shines, newspapers, shaves and such things. Mr. H. K.

He, among other things, says, "that a person familiar with the political situation can stand on the street corner and point out the respective followers of Please or Jones with few exceptions, there being a difference in the general appearance of the friends of the two aspirants for the gubernatorial seat. There is a middle ground of citizenship, he says, for which the contest for office will be "* " rT"11 A ? + ?? l'/, mMnt f f\ W<l?}6Cl. 1 lifctl tiUlLViliCUl 1SS i,vr convey the idea that the Blease supporters belong to the rabble, while the Jones supporters belong to the "upper ten," and is a pretty severe arraignment of a majority of the citizenship of South Carolina Mr. Osborne is himself a candidate tor re-eieciion tu the house from Spartanburg county. The Lyceum. The lyceum goers of Newberry will be entertained on Friday evening, April 12, by the Toronto Male quartet. These celebrated singers are now making their second tour of the United ( States, after two years of phenomenal success in their home city. The sympathetic blending of voices ' in ensemble, precision of attack, and brilliant forte effects produced, make L; it equal, if not superior, of any quar( tet now before the public. The repertoire is varied and extensive, including both classical and popuL j lar music, rendered in such a manner j as to please the most critical audience. ! Scotch selections in costume and the : playing of the novelty instrument, marsharp, will add v&riety to the entertainment j 'i nis is a regular iiumuw oi we tui; j lege lyceum course and all those hav! ing season tickets are entitled to ad| mittance.
