A call is published in this issue of The Herald and News for a meeting of the men of Newberry, to be held in the chamber of commerce rooms, this (Thursday) night, at 8.30 o'clock. The meeting is in the interest of the New foerry county hospital, it being desired to take stock of exactly what has been done, and to get the movement in such shape that work can be commenced on thft hnsmital in the near future. This is an important matter, and it is very much hoped by those who have been active in the movement that there will be a big attendance of the men of Newberrv at the meeting tonight. A great deal has already been accom- j plished?enough to assure the success of the movement if the efforts are continued in the earnest spirit in C -?.L. ?TA?A 1 r* nn/? n?V?ir>V? line YV UiUXI LilCJf' VVC1C ucguu auu v? ux^u. uuo characterized them so far. Of course, there is some further work needed, and it will tak# the continued cooperation of the people of Newberry to achieve the results which are de- j Bired. The ladies have beem zealous in their work in aid of the movement, and the result of their labors is gratifying. T,Pt pvprv man in X^wberrv "who nan possibly do so attend the meeting tonight, and by his presence and in every other way within his power and ability, lend his co-operation and encouragement to this movement, which means so much for Newberry. The street paying. The city has been dofng some firstclass street paving work, under the direction of City Engineer Norris, in the neighborhood of the old court house. At at present contemplated, the paving will go down Boyce street to the Crotw^ll hotel. In the direction of the opera house it will go only a part of the way along Boyce street. ' While the city is engaged in this work, it would be a fine thing for the community if the paving could be carried 011 to the opera house, and from the Crotwell hotel both ways along College street, so as to pave College street from Main at least as far up College street as beyond the new court house. The property holders have been aiding the city in the work which is now fceing done. This kind of work not only benefits the entire community, but it increases considerably the value of abutting property. We\hope the property owners along tJinsp ?p<*tirms nf thp strppts mpntinnprf will realize the great importance of this work, and that they and the city may be able to get together on a plan which will result in the work being done. Of course, any other paving, in ad dition to tins, which could be done, and which may be done, would be in the interest of the advancement of Newberry. Permanent work of this kini in the improvement of a city's streets is but keeping up with the march of progress. And it is an investment which yields big dividends. CAMPAIGN DAY IN NEWBERRY. The State campaign party will be in Newberry on next Tuesday. There is no reason to expect any disorder at a meeting of this kind in Newberry. The people of Newberry county yield to the people of no other section; of tiie country in their respect for law and order, and the fairness and the couri tesy for which they are noted have never yet forsaken them. The campaign has engendered un- j usual bitterness this year, and feeling is running high throughout the State. Newberry being the home of Governor Blease and the county of nativity of both the other candidates, there has naturally been intense interest in the campaign here. There has, too, natur- I ally been a great deal of indignation j i J among the supporters of the governor [ at such tactics as those employed ! such men as Felder and Grace, and the sanction that has seemingly been given these tactics in certain quarters in the State. The peculiar situation in Newberry makes it all the more important that there should be the very best of order at the campaign neeting here, an that every candidate should be given the most respectful attention. There can be no harm in cheering a favorite. The proper kind of enthusiasm, properly expressed, is always in order. It is expected that there will be sev eral thousand people at the meeting. As we say, we have no fears of a Newberry audience, but the strain has become intense, and it is well that the people of the county should keep in mind the absolute necessity of enforcing the most scrupulous order. The j eyes of the State, and the eyes of many j States, will be upon Newberry, next} PntVinciocm nnrl r>hpprs for! JL UCOUaj .

Tate and Others to Deliver Addresses There will be a picnic at St. Luke's Lutheran church, in No. 9 township, on Friday, August 16. State Superintendent of education J. E. Swearingen and Prof. W. K. Tate, State supervisor of rural schools, have accepted invitations to deliver addresses on educational topics during the day. In addition to these speakers, there will be several short addresses by citizens of the community, along educational lines. The purpose of the gathering is to discuss questions pertaining to education and the development and improvement of the rural schools. In other words, it is Dronosed to have an educational rally in this community on Friday, August 16. Everybody is invited to attend and to bring well filled baskets. The entire day will be spent in the interest of education and the development of the country schools. It is hoped that there will be a large attendance on the part of the people in the entire community and those who do not live in the community will be welcome. Nothing pertaining to politics will be discussed. The meeting is purely eaucauuiiai. ' It is probable that other distinguished gentlemen from a distance, interested in school improyement, will also be present. VOTING FOE MAGISTRATE. Ruling of County Chairman Dominick t:pon Question Which Seems to < Have Caused Confusion. V Some confusion seems to have arisen as to voting for magistrates in the county, and County Chairman uominick was asked for a ruling in regard to the matter. County Chairman Dominick rules that a resident of the county otherwise qualified may enrol his name upon any club roll in the county, wherever his residence may be in the county, and vote at the precinct where his naaie is enrolled. In voting for magistrate the voter must vote for a magistrate of the township in which the voter resides, and the managers of election are requested to count the votes thus cast. For instance, under the county chairman's ruling, there is no rule against a man living in Township Xo. 4 being enrolled in Township No. 1 and voting in Township Xo. 1. But, his residence being in Township Xo. 4, he must vote for magistrate of Township Xo. 4, and can not vote for magistrate of Township Xo. 1. (Advertisement.) Something About Ira B. Jones. It is right that the people of South Carolina should know the facts about + />ar>r1ir?ato<3 in thp r?OP for STOVef nor before the. 27th of August because no one can vote properly unless he votes intelligently and to vote intelligently one must know the record of the candidates. This article is written with the purpose of letting the people know more about Ira B. JoneS. Few people know that Judge Jones is a man of the people. He is proud of the fact that in Newberry county, where he was born, there are still people living who remember that his, father was a respected carpenter and his mother assisted her husband in the support of the family by sewing for the neighbors. sJtmlpnt. and Yoiinur Lawver. Almost from childhood Ira B. Jones i looked at life seriously. His schoolmates remember that often in the afi ternoon when they were at play he would go in early to study for his classes the next day, and they testify -Ll? *?Qorlv r?rr?mi<!P 10 tne litei mat Lie va.? ij f ?of becoming an upright man anc useful citizen. By careful study and by taking advantage of such meager opportunities as were offered, he obtained a fair adiioatinn fir>bnnls wprp not theil what they are now and that is probably the reason why Judge Jones remembering his own difficulties and wishing to smooth the road for other j poor boys, declared that as governor "the improvement and development of the common schools shall have my keen interest and hearty support." j It would be easy to tell and might j be interesting to hear how young ! Jones having gotten an education mov_ j ed to Lancaster county and began the I nf law Rnw clients pame! 'slowly at first and how later having J inspired the confidence of the people ! j in his home, town he acquired a large ! iand paying practice. What we are |chiefly interested in, however, in his, i political career. As Legislator. In 1S90 Ira B. Jones was elected to ; the legislature from Lancaster coun-1 i ty and it fs evident that he was wide! ly known and that his ability had been : recognized, for he was at once made { 1 chairman of the ways and means com- j i mittee of the house and was later j j elected its speaker. These were stir i ring ti?nes, for the great reform move, j j ment had just swept over South Caroi lina and party spirit ran high. Sena! tor Tillman, then governor, was insti-. tuting many needed reforms, and !Judge Jones as speaker of the house! i did efficient service. Be it said to his : ! credit, however, that although the i i whole State was aroused by political animosity, Judge Jones so conducted himself as to receive the hearty ap' # j plause of friends and at the same time, j | by liis fairness, he won the respect and i ' confidence of those who had been his i : political opponents. As Judge. It came, therefore, as a natural re: ward for service that in 1896 he was I elected associate justice of the high est court in the State. It may be mentioned in passing that I j his present opponent in the race for governor secured his nomination and voted for him for associate justice.; Having served twelve years as asso- j ciate justice, in 1909, upon the retireiment of Chief Justice Pope, Judgt1 i Jones was elevated to the position of chief justice, which is the highest ju-j ifKHni nnsition in the sift of the State. j It may be truthfully said that no \ ] ; judge in South Carolina in many years .has enjoyed a'greater reputatioE both for ability and honesty than Ira B. Jones. The same industry and con[ scientious performance of duty which j was noticeable in him as a young man, !have characterized his work as a j judge. He has been the recipient of honors from his fellowmen and the emoluments of office, but the satisfaction of a hard day's work well done has ever | been his best reward. Among the charges hurled at Judge Jones by his political opponent is that jhe has leaned toward corporations. : Suffice it to say that as attorney he I never represented a corporation and as a judge he repeatedly upheld large I verdicts against the corporations. In i the case of Rhodes against the Granby 1 cotton mills of Columbia, he upheld j a verdict for $8,000 in favor of Rhodes I on the ground that there was evidence I that- hp had been unjustly discharged j and blacklisted by the cotton mills, j The verdicts which he sustained I against the railroads would run up into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, there being one verdict against the Southern Railway company for $25,000 and many others for large amount*. | He has never leaned toward or j against corporations, but his decisions !'and rulings have been what those of ; every judge should be?just and fair j to all. Changes Unjust. As citizen, lawyer, legislator, judge ami rhief iustice. Ira B. Jones has made good. He has lived an upright moral life; is a conscientious member of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian church, is temperate in his habits and has measured up to all the requirements of a true and useful man. ft PAJM HIM MAP Qflr j V A 1AU1TI VWA V M WAAA V VV* 1 PALM OLIVE CREAM 50c.

I It should be remembered that this man | who is now before the people in the race for governor has never in his life been charged with anything unbecoming the highest and best citizen until his opponent brought charge?3 [against him. The absurdity of these charges can best be shown by the fact | that Cole. L. Blease himself voted for I Judge Jones for United States senator | in 1909, with such men as Frank B. | Gary, LeGrand Walker, J. L. Coker land other high men. To try to make I South Carolinians believe that this ' ' 1 ViicrliOQt | man wno nas oteu men ui&uv?v 4v..0. j believes in social equality between the races is evidently a trick to catch I votes as to need no exposure. Ira B.
