President McKinley has signed the Newberry College bill, by which that institution will receive $15000. Con gressman Latimer deserves the credit for this work as he has been indus triously working for it over since he has been in congress. Doctor Samp son Pope, it is said, threw every obstacle in the way of the bill's pas sage and even after it did pass he en deavored to influence the President to vetoe it. If such is the case the disappointed chronic office seeker of both parties, cught to pull up stakes from Newberry at once. We sup pose he will resign his commission as public vaccinator after this ignomin ious defeat. William Jennings Bryan paid South Carolina a call last week and the fires of Democratic enthusiasm were rekindled. His route was a continous ovation and his speeches were eye-openers to those who do not understand the subject of binietalism. It was our pleasure to have heard two of this great man's speeches and we could without tiring bear him every day for a month. Bryan is not only an orator, but he is the greatest reasoner we have ever listened too He does not juggle with words, but in as simple a manner as is possible, he proves his arguments; his language is so simple that; an unlettered man can understand him clearly, and his arguments are so full of force that conviction fastens itself upon every unprejudiced mind. If W. J. Bryau does not reach the presidency it will not be the fault of the cause he rep resents, but because the money pow er, organized into trusts, monopolies and combinations has fastened its tentacles into our body politic, so that no earthly power can break lose their clutch upon this government. "Uncle George" Tillman, who has been induced to announce himself a candidate for Governor, deserves the sympathy of everybody. The old gentleman is very feeble and he has the appearance of a man afflicted with palsy. His once solid and rud dy complexion has given way to the depredation of seventy-three sum mers, and his manly athletic form is but by the ravages of years. That he should have been enticed into the gubernatorial race is not at all cred itable to those responsible for it. George Tillman had a magnificent public career, but for the sake of gratifying spite they are willing to cast a shadow over a man at the brink of the grave. Who induced Col. Tillman to announce himself a candidate? It is said that James Tillmnan, who was defeated for a col oncy of militia, is the prime mover in the cause. James Tillman is a much petted son of "Uncle George," and when the idol of his heart was defeated for brass button and gold lace honors, he appealed to Governor Ellerbe to reopen the election upon the ground of unfairness. The Gov ernor refused, and the disappointed boy appealed to his very aged father to go upon the hustings and cuss the Governor out. We do not think the people will care to humor even a man with so illustrious a career as George Tillman when he comes to them with a tale of woe, and we further do not believe the people want a man who is old enough to be in his second childhood for their Governor, not in this day of push and progress. It was exceedingly gratifying to the friends of Governor Ellerbe, that at that assembled multitude to do honor to the greatest of Democratic leaders William Jennings Bryan at Due West last Friday, the appear ances of Governor Ellerbe upon the stage brought forth such a storm of genuine, sincere, and enthusiastic applause, and when that scholar, pa triot, and Christian gentleman Doc tor Grier, introduced our Chief ex ecutive as an "Honest, Fearless, Con scientious, Christian Governor" the audience with a magnificient mnag nanimity endorsed the sentiment with rounds of applause. Doctor Grier, president of Erskine College, sounded a truth when he referred to governor Ellerbe as an honest, fearless conscientious chris tian governor, and the conclusion reached by him, will be the conclu white voters in the coming Democra tic primary. Governor Ellerbe has given to the people of South Carolina an administration which even his most formidable opponent has not even dared to attack; not a breath of scandal has been uttered against him nor those with which he has a con trolling influence. He has endeavor ed to enforce the law promptly and with vigor, and whenever it has been in his power he has saved to the peo ple money. The politicians of the "rip snorter" type do not like the governor, because they see in him possibillity of their losing their oc cupations. They want a chief exec., tive who can invent material tc keep the people in a constant st^.'e of irritation, which will give the; s mate rial to appeal to passion ar.d there by keep themselves near the fleshpots If governor Ellerbe would lend him. self to the advancing of the political interests of certain politicians the op position would die out immediately but as long as he continues to be Honest. Fearless, and Conscientious just so long will those whose interest: are effect by such a course, continue to howl and endeavor to poison the minds of the people against him. The people of this State are heart ily sick of friction, and when then placed Governor Ellerbe at the rud der of the ship of State, they did ii with the understanding that he wa to guide her out of the troubulou waters and sail her into a haven o peace. Has he done this? Ther can be but one answer. Yes. The= why break the precedent by encour aging a lot of disgruntled politician to give him opposition for a seconi term? Let every reasonable votes consider the grounds for opposition and he will see that it does not ema. nate from a patriotic cause, but fron personal interest, disappointment ani spleen, but those who want a Chie Executive who in the language o that great and good man, Docto: Grier, president of Erskine College is Honest, Fearless, and Conscien tious will say to the selfish politician stand aside, William H. Ellerbe has been placed in the scales and no found wanting. IDLE SPECULATION. Theories as to the Summer's Politics Some Bad Guesses as to Who Will Laud the Minor State Offices. Columbia, S. C., March 12.-In m letter of last week I promised to sa something about the body of the state ticket. As mentioned last wee]i Hon. J. A. McCullough of Greenville may cut no little ice in the race foi lieutenant governor, if put in the proposed prohibition local optior combination ticket. The incumbent Hon. M. B. MeSweeny, will make the race again. Being a newspaper marn contributed in no small degree tc his success is the last race, but the same thing may be said of him thal was said of Ellerbe last~week. Ther< is a silent vote of magnificent proper tions to be considered when summing up his strength. It is impossible tc estimate the vote that he would re. ceive. These two gentlemen areth only candidates so far in the race foi that position. For secretary of state, M. R. Coo per, of Colleton, is out. If D. H Tompkins, the incumbent, does no take up the bedraggled cloak tha fell from the shoulders of his frient John Gary Evans, he will in all prob ability, be~ a candidate for re-election He is a popular man and has made good officer and will, unless combi nations against him are too strong make a good run. Attorney General Barber will nol offer for re-election, He has carried a heavy load for a young man an( carried it well, and he now want: rest in the law-making department o the nation. For his shoes there~ are several candidates, among them, mer of no little strength, G. Duncan Bel linger, of Barnwell, H. H. Evans, o: Newbery, W. P. Pollock, of Chester. field, C. L. Winkler, of Kershaw, anc ex-Judge C. P. Townsend, now assis tant in the office. For Superintendent of Education Hon. W. D. Mayfield, the incumbent has decided that he will not offer foi re-election. He has made a gooi officer and his friends are loath tc have him leave it. This position i sought by T. C. Robinson, of Pickens who has for years been editor of th People's Journal, T. G. White, o Beaufort, who is also known througi his newspaper work in the column: of the News and Courier, and W. A Brown, senator from Marion. For adjutant and inspector gener al, though least remunerative office on the ticket, there are more candi dates than for any other. The incumbent, John Gar y Watts, would like to serve again, and his assistant Col. Bruce would like promotion Henry T. Tfhompson, of Darlington has been urged by his friends to run and Gen. R. N. Richbourg, of Colum bia, is also prominently mentioned. The veteran sergeant at arms of thi senate, Col. J. W. Floyd, of Kershaw will also ask the suifrages of the peo There is no opposition so far, and probably wvill not be, to Treasure: Timmerman. Thus you see four and may be fiv of the present ticket will ask. for re election, three positively will not. It is a significant fact that there is no "sink or swim together" sentiment on the ticket. Each officer is rowin~ his own boat, and while there is no distrust of each other, there is no overweening confidence. This isa "new method-new men year" in pol itics. A sort of ring smashing sen timent is abroad in the air, and ever~ candidate while paddling hard toward the goal as he can, wishes to avoid even all appearance of evil. Nearly all of the congressmen will also have opposition, though in some of the districts the opposition has not yet announced itself. A report comes from Washington to the effect that the Republicans will put out tickets in every district and fire the woodse in eornest this year, this report has so often proved to be "much cry and little wool" that very little faith is to be put in it. The effort to reorganize the old alliances being made just now, looks to many like a political move, but the farmers are not so easily caught by chaff every time and they want to see the nigger in the wood pile before they go further. It is said to be a sequel to the effort to organize the cot ton growers, which was resorted to a short while ago, as a new and proba bly more captivating plan, but which also fell flat. It is a very significant fact that these plans believed, as they are by many to be political schemes, have fallen flat. It looks like the loadstone has lost its magnetic power, and the name which erstwhileclaimed the multitudes is but sounding brass and tinkling cymbols. This see:s to be v. political emancipation which "lls i the long metre doxology. Howc-- r we need not congratulate ourselves o soon, that the Greeks are gone. for we cannot tell yet but what we may iand the Trojan horse in somc form or another before we are quite throug i. In fact, a certain Achilles has more than once hinted that he may return to the storm in open fight, since things in South Carolina seem to ba e to be in such a mess. but there are more Archers to day who know of Achilles' vulnerable heel than once there were and a stray shaft may strike it. H.RTWELL M. AYER. TEACHERS' COLUMN. Conducted by Clarendon County - Toochers' Association. GIST GEE, Jordan, S. C., - Editor. Miss CARRIE LEGG, Workman, S. C., G. T. PUGH, Shiloh, S. C., Associate Editors. Next Issue. Remember that our next issue will I be devoted to School Government. We hope to have several short papers on this subject. - Parents and Schools. "Dear Sir: Please let my son have his own way at school, and don't f make him study or behave himself. "Very truly, "Mns. PRE\Tr. r This, of course, is exaggerated as to form, but not as to fact. We have - recently heard of a parent asking the teacher to allow her child to stand an examination, but not to mark that child on the work; and only too often t the child is allowed to have its own way about attending school and per forming school duties. Either the parents are becoming very ignorant of school requirements or the children of our time are grow ing overwise. Why is it that the son or daughter now has entire control of his or her own education? Not many yeara ago an education was given whether the child consented or not, but now as soon as the young man or lady attends school for a few years, then the accomplishments must be added or the training dropped. The only way that we can suggest to rem edy this is for the parents and teach ers to know more of each other. This seems aimple enough, but how is it to be brought about? There might be regular meetings of the parents and teachers of every school; the parents might attend the teachers' meetings from time to time; the teachers should make an effort to know and be known by the patrons. for troubles -often arise because this is not the case; and then finally, we would in csist upon the patrons visiting the school regularly and often, keep in - touch with the work done there and lend your encouragement. We dare tsay that there are many trustees even twho could not tell what methods I their teachers are using or even what -branches thbey are teaching. .No teacher can accomplish much Swithout the co-operation of the pa .rents, so this ia a most important side of school life. If our patrons were only alive to their duties and respon sibilities in this direction, our work l would be much more effective. The Advent of tho 'Go Ohid." The following clipping is published at the request of "Sennex": The modern child is like a pin. wheel, ready to go off in a blaze of fwordy fireworks the instant a spark of interest is applied to the fuse of its understanding. Like an old man -in his dotage, this fag endI of the nineteenth century can only mumble ,and prate of childish things, and the ,kindergarten, that incubator of little bores, is rampant. Some courageous lperson tught to found a Society for >the Prevention of Infant Information giving, and some one with a burden of superfluous wealth might endow a "Refuge" for the parents and guard ians who are being brought up by their children in spite of themselves. Trulv "the child is father of the man" --and of the mother, too. Self-con scious through indiscriminate praise ad exaggerated notice, the children up to date are the most unchildish, information-spouting little prigs in existence; if "of such are of the king dom of heaven," heaven is a good place to keep out of. Do you imag ine a modern child would listen to the thrilling words of the Master as did the children of old when they -were sanctified by the divine bless ing? Of course not! A modern Schild, be it scarce old enough to lisp, ,would have a criticism to pass upon the Perfect One, and in its eagerness to tell what it knew it would miss the words which had held the bibli cal children spellbound. We are child-culture mad. The talent of the country puts forth its finest flowers of effort for the benefit of children; parents devote time and money for the little good and the large harm which is bound to be the reult of over-indulgence. A goodly arest of dissatisfaction and discom fort is their reward. In our craze for fad--which are usually harmless enough, heaven knows !-we ought to choose less pliable and responsive objects for the brunt of our enthusi asm. The child who is encouraged to watch the stately ships of cloud in the ocean of the sky, the child who loves the sunshine and the falling rain, the child wvho, in sweet meek ness of heart, begs for a fairy tale and falls asleep dreaming of bright winged birds and magic flowers, has a better start in lovableness of dispo sition and understanding of this won derful wrld1 than the sma kinder. garten-bred child who can recite half a verse of anine poetry, and make paper mats and string beads until its eyes ache.-Life. Every teacher who makes the school a dear place is a public bene factor; if he makes a child hate to come to school, he has iflicted an in jury that may last through life. Love of school and desire for progress are one and the same. The child who feels sure that good to him is bound up with the school-that same school could do a great deal for him. "Parents' Meetings" is one of the modern educational fads, and unlike most fads, it has met with few oppo nents. The Parents' Meetings t.:e simply occasions when the parert and the teacher may meet to diezass plans of mutual helpfulne-s. One of the marked tendencies of the time is the desire to look at all great questions from the point of view of each person directly interested. in certain results. It has been truthfully said that the people most iinterested in the child's progress arr. usually working entirely independei.t of one another. The school, the church and the home usu ally mark the horizon line of the child's life. His waking hours are divided between the home and the school. Half of the worries of the teacher's life spring from misunder standings with parents. A frank, kindly discussion of the manner in which the home and the school may co-operate is the work of the Parents' Meetings. In the old days of "boarding round" the pedagogue was brought into living contact *ith the home life of the pupil. Who can say what helpful impulses came from the homely, old-fashioned custom. Icha bod Crane,as he rocked the cradle with one foot while he held his smallest pupil upon the other knee, was a type of the old relations between the home and the school. Modern conditions and modern questions must be met in modern manner. The Parents' Meeting fills the place that the old time "boarding round" did. It is a iatulal result of the awakened inter est in child life and of the effort on the part of all people connected with its development to concentrate all the educational influences into har mony. The movement has starteed in some of the larger towns where conditions seem more favorable to its development than in cities or rural districts. The plan is one that can be adapted to suit any community. It is being pushed by the clnb wo men aided by the teachers and the best sentiment of the community. BUCKLEN'S ARMCA SALVE.

Editor THE TIlfEs: You missed a treat by not being with us at Pine Grove in our celebra tion of the 22d of February, Wash ington's birthday. The exercises were under the aus pices of our graded school. When we say that Prof. Pough and Miss Annie Driggers arranged and con ducted the exercises, it goes wi;hout saying that the day was a grand suc cess. Would that we had space to mention each by name who contrib uted to the success of the occasion, but sufce it to say we had a verita ble "rosebud garden of girls" whose addresses and songs were like gar lands of love placed by fair hands upon the brow of the immortal Wash ington. And the boys were an ideal part of "Young America;" their speeches were prophetic of orators and states men in the days to come. While the literary features of the occasion were excellent, we are all human, air. Edli tor, therefore when dinner was an nounced our appetites had assumed voracious proportions, notwithstand ing which we found "bread enough and to spare." The good ladies of the neighborhood had vied with each other in preparing appetizing dishes. Mr. Richbourg, our Superintend ent of Education, was with us and seemed to enjoy the occasion as much as we did his excellent address. Our Pine Grove school is doing excellent work in the education of our sons and daughters. We invite all parents throughout the country to patronize this school and offer to them superior educational advant ages. MoRE ANoN.
