Newberry is justly proud of her fine
school system. The city schools commencement
exercises this week are a
credit to one of the best public school

"Why should the Columbia State
continue to think that these are not
Democrats who differ from or disagree
with it on methods?"?Anderson Mail.
Echo answers, Why?
With the graded school commence
nient this week, the college commencement
next week, and then Chautauqua
the last week in this month, the people
of Newberry are having a respite
from politics.
*
The fact that a teacher leaves a city
on the eve of the commencement ex
ercises of a school, unless caneaaway
toy sicknss or other emergency, is not
very forcible indication on the part
of the teacher of any very sincere interest
in the school.
PRESIDENT HARMS' WORK.
Congratulations to President Harms
and to Newberry college. President
Harms' campaign was strenuous and
trying, requiring energy and ability.

of every friend of the college.
The future never loomed larger and
brighter before Newberry college.
The State Press association will
hold its annual meeting at Spartanburg
next week, June 10 and 11. An
interesting and instructive program
has been arranged, but on account of
conflict with commencements, some of
us will not be able to attend. After
the meeting it is proposed to take a
trip over the C. C. & 0. railroad into
the coal fields.

at Sumter, follo'ving very much tlie
itinerary of former campaigns. The
candidates for the various offices
should confine their speeches to the
discussion o? issues, ard an effort
should be made as far as possible to
eliminate all personal issues. These
campaigns were originally inaugurated
for the purpose of instructing the
people on the issues of the day, and
should not be permitted to degenerate
into a discussion of personalities.
THE ROADS.
The past winter has given a very
forcible demonstration of the value of
the split log drag. "Where the roads
have been dragged, even though it
has been a very severe winter, they
are now in good condition, but where
they have not had the drag applied,
they are full of holes and can not be
made smooth and good roads during
the summer without considerable trouble.
Of course, in many cases, the
farmers have been forced to use their
.teams on the farms whenever the land
would do to plow, but it seems to us
that a little work on the roads Would
havp hf^n pfonnmv. anfl aVati .a. sav
ing to the farmer, because he has frequent
occasion to use the road in connection
with his farm operations, and
by having the road in good condition,
he could have saved more time than it
would have taken to drag it.
LET THERE BE AX E>D SOME
WHEEE.
: JMr. H. H. Evans was acquitted in
r
the Richland county court las; " c :
of the charge of accepting a rebate of
fifty dollars" while a dispensary direc'
tor, from a whiskey drummer. The
pvidpnpp of flip State was submitted?
presumably all the evidence the State
had?and a jury of Richland, who are
presumed to be honest and patriotic j
| until the contrary is made to appear,!
said by their verdict tnat tne state
had not made out a case.
The attorney general and his numerous
assistants, it seems to us, have
had ample time to secure any evidence
there was against Mr. Evans, if any
there was, and ample time to have
presented it a good while ago. Witli a
nol pros by the State in Newberry on
an indictment against Evans, and a
verdict of not guilty in Columbia, it
would seem that it is about time to
- - _ _ />!
leave Mr. j&vans m peace, jjenaimy
any further effort on the part of the
attorney general to take him into the
court would savor very strongly of:
persecution, rather than prosecution, j
In fact, that fifty-dollar case in Rich- j
land, in the light of the course of the i
* XT- ~ !
attorney general in tut? :\cwuen7
court, did not have the right ring
about it.
It will be recalled that an indictment
was handed out against Evans
here in June, 1910. Evans asked for
a trial at that term, and the attorney
general refused to go to trial. At the
succeeding November, March and June
| terms of court Evans demanded a trial,
| and each time the attorney general
j refused to go to trial. Finally in
| June, 1911, a nol pros was entered
J toy the State under the order of Judge
i Watts passed at the March term that
I if the State was not ready at the June j
;
| term a nol pros should issue.
It should be remembered that even !
' if a man was connected with the old
I State dispensary, he is still a human
| being, and that most of these men have j
! families. If there was evidence sufIficient
to put them on trial, they
! should have been put on trial, but this j
continual keeping a man in court with ;
a charge hanging over him is no vin- j
dication of law, and is hardly consist-j
I
ent with the high duties of the attorney
general's office, or with the peace
and dignity of the State he is supposed
to represent.
If the attorney general has not had
| his day in court in these cases, it is
! not for lack of time, and it is not for
1 lack of lawyers employed to assist
:
| him, and we sincerely hope the State
has seen the end of them. ~ *
