The Herald and News and the good people of Newberry extend a cordial greeting and a hearty welcome and the right hand of fellowa.ip to the delegates who are within our gates in attendance upon the Woman's Missionary Union of the Baptist church of South Carolina. We want all the -isitors to feel absolutely and entirely at home. While Newberry may not be the greatest city, commercially and industrially in South Carolina?you observe we said may not be?yet we will demonstrate and, exemplify to the good woolen who are to be our guests :his week that tl:ere is none that excels us in hospitality and the ability to entertain the stranger within our \ gates and make him (her) feel entirely at home. We are the best people on earth. We Lave all of the Christian denominations represented in our town and we all dwell together in brotherly (and sisterly) love. We have a fine system of schools - anaiexceiiem teacners. we rave the best college in the State. We have three of the best cotton mills in the State, and at one of them the prttiest and most complete and unique park in t'lie States and there are no people who can excel those of our cotton mill villages. * .Newberry is the Some of Chi?: Justice John Belton O'Xeall and' Young John Pope anti Chancellors Job Johnstone and J. J. 'Caldwell and she furnished the chief justice of the supreme court of the tiSate for a longer period otf time than any other county.. It is the home also of trie present chief executive of the Commonwealth. / :And don't forget tfcat we have excellent dry goods sand millinery store where you can secure the latest and i best that fashion knows. And it goes without saying that we have two of the best newspapers on earth, edited by two young men who continue to drink at the fountain of perpetual youth. Young ladies, we welcome you. We hope your stay in our midst will be pleasant and tee sessions of your convention pro itable. We have not pretended to tell you of al the good things in Newberry. If you don't see what want "ax" for it. It is too bad that Gen. J. Fraser Lyon and Col. Thos. B. Felder should fall out. It is a pity tr.at we should be so ready to question ti:e motives of our fellowman. We should be willing sometimes to give credit for honest ami sincere ana pure motive. we would feel better for so doing. We talked with a number of tlie merchants on Saturday evening and ihey with one accord were in a good :umor and all said that they had a good day. Everything is alright and we are safe. The country is safe. Play the glad game and be happy. Mr. Lewis W. Parker has resigned as president of the group of mills known as t) e Parker trills Co. We esteem Mr. Parker as one oi the best men in the, State, intelligent, agreeable and pleasant at. all times. We hope this retirement does not mean that the is to drop out of the active part he has taken in the industrial development of the State. mr - , , Suppose' we forget about the price of cotton and the war and the hard times and tell u e young women who are with us this week what a great inwn X'pwhprrv is What firip nprmlp we (have and the tine agricultural possibilities of the county. Th? college and the schools, the pretty sweet girls and the handsome men, ?nd all the good things we can talk about. Make them glad they came and sorry to go away. We can do it and we will. \ Seven and a half cents the pound is not such an awful low price foil corton. It has been lower than that. And still some farmers made money. And then it has been around 20 cents and some farmers were hard up and made no money. It all depends. The les * ___ ? J ~ sons we are learning now win uo good. Let's all be glad that cotton is not sellnig as low as five cents the pound. And that there is corn in t'.e crib and lard and bacon in the smoke 'jouse. That is in t>.e farmer's crib and smoke house and we town people I hope that when ours gives out the .armer will share with us. He will if' I we treat him right. We do not allow the use of firearms within the city limits, because 1 there is danger in their use to life, j | Yet speeding automobiles are tolerated and trey are equally as dangerous when it comes to dealing death.? j ! Spartanburg Herald. ! If the drivers would observe some of ti* e ordinary rules of traffic and o? . common sense and not :eel that they i ?i were tv.e only ones who had a right | of way to the highways, tfcere should i not be any more danger from an automobile than a horse and buggy. We commend the following from the I Pr>1 nm"hip ^nrrpsnondent of the Xews ~ j and Courier to the careful and ; thoughtful consideration of the editor j I of the Columbia Record. j "Tt:e new warehouse commissioner i . earnestly asks tbe cooperation of tne | people o: the State to make tfcfe ware! house system a success. He sa^s that he is doing his best and with the co , operation of the press and public l>eI UnTrns fVi r\ pvotom Ttrill nrftR'O r\f err*oo t ! ii^v C3 LUC or ovgm MHi yi v v v*. benefit, not only to the cotton producers, but to the merchants and business interest and all the people of the State. Mr. MoLaurin wants the farmers wl.:o have their cotton at home in tir.e country to get acquainted with . the warehouse plans and store their j cotton. He will outline this more in j detail in his statements to the public J which will probably be given out in a few days." ? I The Anderson Intelligencer, in a 1 recent issue, advocates and suggests the organization of Polly Anna clubs. We suppose every one in Newberry knows what that means. Some months ago President John Kinard of the Commercial Bank, offer- I ed to loan to any one wno wouia read it, a copy of this little book. It is called the glad book. The point of the story is to find something for j wtich to be glad even under the most j adverse circumstances. I : It is very appropriate just now. j I I j There are many tilings for which our i farmers should be glad and instead of i i { ! going around complaining and whin- j ing about the price o: cotton they, : ^1* /\n ^ /I K a rrl a ^ f V> o f att kntrn nl a>i ' j ouuuiu uc siau mac ennave picin* i j to eat and to wear and that they | i live in such a glorious land and th.:t, ! we are at peace with all the world. i We have sp many t'/ings for which I . * ! | to be glad tCat we should forget the I # troubles and misfortunes which come |only to sweeten our lives if properly I | understood and appreciated. Get on trie wagon and play the glad i I game whether you can form a club j j or not. It is one game you can play | I all alone but if you do you will soon | make so many other people happy j that you will have lots oif company. I COLUMBIA RECORD DISSATISFIED. ; T&e Columbia Record seems to be Card to please. It was very much ! ; against the passage by the legislature: of the proposed cotton bond bill. It did everything it could to bring about j the defeat of the bill. It lambasted' i every one who was in favor of the i proposition. It wrote double broad- ' sides every day while the proposition j was being discussed in the legislature against it. Gov. Blease withheld "his . signature from the bill and on that account it ailed to become law, the very thing the Record was clamoring for. After t: e legislature adjourned it began 10 lambast Gov. Blease for not vetoing the bill. As a matter of fact the course pursued by Gov. I r-? 1 il 1 -- ^ i^ease was me umy <tusuiuuei> was in which effectually to kill the bill. B1 not approving it there "was no possible chance for it to become law. Iif he had vetoed it there would J have been a possibility 'for the pas I sage of the bill over his veto. But I ! when he did not sign it the election was over uerore it was possible for it to become law without -"..is signature. Then if the Record wanted the bill - - * - j r\ nu Killed wny noi comruenu uov. mtase for the course he pursued. As for our part we think Gov. Blease should either 'have approved or vetoed the bill, but ihe chose to do othewise, and that was the most effective* way to accomplish what the Record desired. Now the Record is not satisfied because Warehouse Commissioner John L. McLaurin has made certain appointments on /his personal staff. We have not seen Mr. AlCL&urin since nis election, but we have no doubt t'lat he has acted according to the dictates o: his best judgment, and we opine he will be sorely disappointed because his official acts do not meet the approval of the Record. If, as the Record says, it has only the best wishes for the success of the warehouse proposition, why should it try to inject t1- e possibility of politics in the first actof the commissioner, when there is absolutely no ground for the suggestion. If one of the appointees did have a daughter that married the son of Mr. McLaurin does that disqualify him for the position. Is it necessary for uis private secretary to be an expert in the cotton business. If ti:'?se men should prove_lncompetent we have no doubt that Mr. McLaurin will very soon require their resignation and appoint some one who is competent. From any standpoint Mr. McLaurin has more at stake personally from the success of this warehouse proposition than any other man in the State. He advocated the idea before the war came and be.ore the price of cotton went down. If tie expects to use it to advance iis political fortunes, which we do not in tfie slightest intimate, but that is the intimation of tVi i T?Via Viae m/->rji at etaVo /-in tii - Uj ^ V A1U.O XX IVi V UW OlUilV, V 11 its. success than any other man. If he is sincere in his ad|.oc!acy of it as a benefit to the cotton 'farmer, as we understand his interests, be has as much at stake as any other man. Then why undertake to impugn his motives and criticize his acts before he scarcely gets the mac^.nery in motion and before any of his staff have even undertaken to perform any official act, and before you know whether or not they are incompetent. Let us give the proposition a fair and squnre deal, and give Mr. McLaurin all t:e encouragement and aid in our power, ana 11 u..ere is sometnmg gooa in it for the farmer let him get. the benefit of it. As we understand it Mr. LM'cLau.rin was not a candidate for the position, and besides, he does not need the salary and the salary is not a consideration in bis acceptance of the job. Is it not better to have a man fill the position who is not taking it for the salary than one whose main purpose in wanting t):e position would be the salary wLich attaches. And one who is interested in the success of the project. | vVle hope the Record will begin to ^"ee something good somewhere. Mr. Editor, suppose you read Polly Anna and learn to play the glad game. Vt will do you good and help your soul besides.' Get in a room where you have no mirror and then you wont be able to see jrour freckles. The trouble may be that your mirror does not disclose your freckles. At any rate try to see somet:. ing good somewhere. Tin's i? nn timf> "nr whininff or com plaining.
