MIGHTY POOR POLICY.
Every town has its fault. A fault
of this town is the tendency of so
many to try to pull down people who
are trying to rise, instead of lending
them a helping hand. Everybody
seems to have it in for his "enemies"
and the number of "enemies"
some Newberry men have is perfectly
marvelous.
"Pull him down," has been the cry j
of a small coterie; and a few others '
have permitted themselves, throughI
some groundless hope, to help on in
the scheme to butcher him.
It isn't right from any standpoint.
It isn't fair. And it is bad policy.
Internecine struggles of this sort de- |
stroy community interest and com-1
munity spirit. How can citizens work
together for the common good when
they are trying to pull down one an-1
other ?-y-Xewberry Observer. j
We are mighty glad?not elegant j
but expressive?to quote with our
endorsement the above from our local
contemporary and we hope he will j
continue to practice this doctrine. He
will have to admit that he has not
always done it himself, but we will
let t'he dead past bury the dead, or
\
-n'ovHa m thai effect. It is unfor- j
tunately true that it is not always a
"small coterie" that tries to pull
down a home man when he aspires
for a position even outside the
county. We have often a:koil the
question why it it was A gooc'i
friend of ours used to tell us that i:
was because we had so many states-'!
men that they were jealous of each
ether and each feared that if one secured
a position it would lessen the
chances of the other. Be that as it
may, it lias always been true of Newberry,
and we hope now trnat our
contemporary has see the light there
may be others to adopt the new doctrine.
The editor of this paper has
felt the Sting of ingratitude himself.
A certain senator from this county
had the opportunity to s:how a little
gratitude on one occasion, but he
was too small and deliberately turned
our picture to the wall, in the face of
the fact that from the time we were
old enough to vote tEere had nDt
been an election when we did not cast
a vote for some member of iiis family.
And the "few minutes" that Newberry
had a congressman, as our
orrespcndent expresses it, was when
his brother held the position, and
we did what we could to put him
there, even in the face of the fact
that we were not then on speaking
terms. We did it by our vote and
? *v? /-?f +Vi?e nowsnanpr

Let us take this opportunity to say
that these Newberry people are a
good people but a peculiar people.
We have never seen them stand
square behind a Newberry man for
any position, it matters not what the
qualifications or character of the J
man. As a rule they will not retain I
.. . I
in office any man who does anytnmg,
or who is progressive or who has any
initiative. They seem to prefer to
go along in the same old way. It is
not new. It dates way back to the
days of Judge O'Xeall. He did things.
Possibly his was the greatest intellect
the county has ever produced. He
-went to the legislature. Was elected
speaker of the house, the most!
honorable position in the gift of the
legislature. Did they send him back
o V r\ TT'OC rl nfoo f for
U.IICL111illUUOIJ . u, Alt naj i.ui
re-election. But trne people of the
State recognizing his ability placed
him on the bench which he adorned
for more than a generation.
Let us hope a new era is dawning
in Newberry. The Herald and News
has a long record of standing by Newberry
men of which it is proud, even
though we.have felt the sting of ingratitude.
We have nothing to regret.
We have been preaching the
get-to-gether spirit so long that we
had almost lost hope, but now we feel

We sincerely hope that conference
of bankers which Mr. McAdoo has
called in Washington, will loosen up
the money market just a little.

Now is just the time to use tie
split log drag. Go to it, farmers.?
Anderson Mail, 28th.
Just the time. Use it. Fact is
this is a simple road working device
that should and could be used
all the year round.
This is a fine time to use the split
log drag. The government road, and
in fnrt all thr* road to ProSDerity,
needs to have some work done on it.
Just a little attention now will save
the road. If neglected much longer
it will be in 'bad shape and will cost
a great deal to put in repair. We
have been hoping that Mr. Summer
would call that meeting of the owners1
of automobiles and form an association
which would get permission from
t'he supervisor to keep this particular
stretch of road in good condition as
an iripal and rnndpl which wa^i.i _
ulate other sections of the ccun.
to go and do likewise. We have a
subscription of $25 for this work, as
soon as Mr. Summer forms his association
and demonstrates that he
means business. It is a crime to see
* /
a good road go to the bad^ The pari
of this road that Supervisor Feagle
built is as good or better than the
government mile.

To be brief the meeting was successful.
All of the topics being interestingly
discussed.
Every thing had been arranged in
order that the day might be spent
pleasantly and no one present we
feel sure regretted having attended.
Crops are growing fine now and
if the good seasons continue and nothing
occurs to destroy them they ought
to turn out well.
We don't remember seeing cotton
improve any faster than it has for the
last two weeks.
