After these rains would be a good time. If properly used it may result in a good road all the winter. "Brother Elbert Aull dies hard. He can't get over the fact that Cotton Ed. Smith was returned to the United States senate.?Gaffney Ledger. Entirely wrong. We are not dead neither are we dying. If Cotton Smith can do naything for the cotton farmer ; it seems to us this is a time to hear from him. Don't you think so? The Texas legislature is arranging for the establishment of a central bank with a capital of $25,000,000 and it is to be established for the purpose , of lending money to the farmer and ' X. x-1-^ ? ~ ~ n ~ i. t ! 10 iat\e ins crop as cwaaierai secuiuv. Something like t?liat would be helpful to South Carolina. The Texas legislature has been in two special sessions and one of the sessions was for the purpose to providing these banking facilities. An adequate currency to . handle the crop is what we need. V i ? The Herald and News prints today f several articles from the Tri-Weekly ! Herald of May 4, 1865. In fact, what fwe print seems to cover everything that was in that issue. Some of it is very interesting. It should be remembered also that at that time even the Tri Weekly Herald was printed in Newberry. The article on "Eve and Mary Compared" is especially well written j tin fact all of the paper is interesting and we have no doubt will be read i with interest by all of our readers. I ?^ I Secretary McAdoo is on his job. ' i He gives notice to the banks that the ! emergency currency and the money, "which has been plaped in t''.:e banks j by the government is for the purpose of helping the farmer and that if he finds any banks are not letting the far juucis nave u ou proper security ana at a reasonaJble rate of interest he "will immediately withdraw the i amounts that have been placed with 1 them. T-at is proper. It will do no ! I good to have that money harded in the banks and it would be wrong to charge ( an unreasonable rate of interest. v. We notice that the grand juries! of Orangeburg and Lexington counties J have recommended that the special , constables be removed from those counties, that tliey are unnecessary J expenses. We 'have never teen of the j opinion that it was necessary to have ' special officrs to look after the en- j forcement of one law. ^ It should be the duty of the sheriffs and their constables and rural policemen and ijagistrates and their con-1 stables and city and town policemen to look after the enforcement of the ; whiskey laws as much as the enforce-i ment of other laws. T':ere are rumors to the effect that j Governor Blease and Attorney General Peeples engaged in a fisticuff bei cause Peeples refused to reappoint, 1~v i _ i _ l - ncu. uumimch assistant attorney general. The least that can be said about it is that Peeples proved himself :in ingrate if he refused to recognize 1 Mr. Dominick's claims. Ke would' never have been heard o:' had it not been for Blease and Dominick. and it is a dead moral certainly that Dominick has been the brains of the attor ney general s omee during the Blease administration.?Gaff ney Ledger. There is absolutely no foundation in fact so far as we have been able io hear for this rumor which seems to lave gotten current over the State of a fight between Blease and Peeples. mere nas oeen no ainerence oetween Mr. Dominick and Mr. Peeples. There is no foundation for the statement that Mr. Peeples refused to reappoint Mr. Dominick. How such rumors gain currency has always been a mystery. THE 3IJLLS AM) THE COTTON No South Carolina farmer confers .my favor 012 a cotton mi'll by selling otton to it at nine cents a pound. Xo nan is advised "by Tne State to sell .his cotton at, nine cents or. at ten' I cents, for that matter. The cotton j mills are doubtless obtaining all the ] cotton they require and they are not ; in need of a guardian. However, con011 mai uie cuum i <uolina mills do not buy from' South Carolina farmers they will buy from the farmers of other cotton States.? The State. That is exactly the position of The 1 i Herald and Xews. and yet if . some ; sort of an arrangement could be ; reach ed between the cotton mills of j this county and the cotton farmers of the county the mills could handle ' all the cotton we grow in the county These are rather extraordinary times 1 and some extraordinary things would ! be permissible. One cotton mill in ; this county sent away to anther State $25,000 in one week for cotton and that was when cotton was around nine cents. That much money turned loose | here in one week for cotton would have helped. We are not advising to | hold or sell but if some of the cot- j ton is not turned into money something will happen. ADVICE WITHOUT REWARD. Editor Aull recalls in the Newberry Herald and News the fact that for 2o years he has been giving the farmers of his county advice that, 1 had it been taken, would have placed tteeni above need or neip irom tne buy-a-bale movement. He says: "The advice has been to grow on the farm all you need to feed and support the farm and then all the cotton you can regardless of the price. That is the only method by which the farmer can become independent. The farmer who does not have to sell his : cotton unless he wants to can hold it for a price wihich at least will pay the cost of production. Legislation may help temporarily but to be lasting it must come back at last to the advice given by The* Herald and Xews." And then Editor Aull plaintively adds: "And we have not been rewarded with a seat in the United States senate either.*' "* ~ " c - * -1 j. 3 lr a record ior givug uiat kiuu of advice entitle South Carolina editors to seats in the United States senate, practically all of them can qualify.?Greenville Piedmont. 'Nothing1 at all plaintive about it so far as we are concerned. It is a little plaintive though how the farmers seem to delight in being fooled by tte politician who in Rowing terms tells them how much he loves them and what he is going to do for them when he is elected, and then how little^ he does after he lands the jo-b. Of course, the truth is t'here is little he can do. We are always glad to do what "we can to help any of our people and we do not do it for reward or the hope of reward, except the consciousness of having done what we could in the cause of humanity and for the good of all the people. ~ T Riley-Coppock.
