We publish on the first page of this paper Mr. Tillmans reply to thE letter of Col. Lipscomb. published some time ago in regard to the far mer's movement and the "bessing of it, and so forth. Mr. 'iliman', letter was sent to the News and( Courier but as that paper had de clined to publish Mr. Lipscomb'E letter it also declined to publish Mr. Tillman's reply. The reply was first published in the GreenvillE News last week. As to the per sonal hits in the letters, we have nc concern. The readers of the II ERA 1.1 AND NE:ws now have what both thesc gentlemen have to say about eacl other, and are left to form their owr conclusions on that part oC the letter As to who is to be the azricultura "Moses" in this movement, if there if to be one, we have no doubt that th< people will decide that question t( to suit themselves. But Mr. Tilli.Ian seer.s to hav been aiming his charges more par ticularly at the agricultural depart ment, than at other officials, and say4 he wants to enlarge it and make i more efficient. The writer has neve believed that the agricultural depar. ment was worth to the State what r cost the State to maintain it. but w will only remark here, that if a lawyer or other professional man had dare( to open his mouth as Mr. Tillman ha. on this subject he would have beet M charged as the veriest enemy of th< farmer, and as guilty of almost everi sin in the decalogue. Mr. Tillman wants a "real agrical tural college." The place to learm farming is on the farm, we still main tain, and Mr. Tillman's agricultura college and his board of agricultur( will not be of much benefit to th< large majority of farmers. Count' institutes and township clubs prop erly organized and managed. w< believe would benefit the farmers To these the farmers could assemble talk over their various modes or farm ing, and give each other the benefi of their successes and failures. The majority of the people in th< .aare farmers and they' di govern the State. They hold thi balance of p)Cwer at the polls anm it is by their vote that the Count: and State officers and legislators ar< cho,sen. If inefficient men have beet --p~mt in office the farmers must blami themselves. But Mr. Tiilman winds up by say ing, "If any county can find a bette: man who is not a farmer than it car among',farmers of that county sen him. We want the brains and pa triotism and honesty of the State t< come:together and take charge of' it:' There can be no objection to thi! test of fitness for office. WVe sayi the convention is to meet let tih best men go there of course. But how about inviting others that farmers into it ? '-Mr. Tillman says he has some thing of importance to offer the con vention when it assembles, and w< await anxiously to see what it is h< is going to offer: Hie says it is no called to make "a slate." We publish this week some nmor. opininions from our farmers on thi farmers' movement. They are in th< -.bout the same as what thos< -se opinions were published las week were. They do not favor at raying one class of citizens agatns another, but seem to think that som< good may result from the proprosei convention. We have been told thal there would likely be a c:ill for a coutn ty convention on saleday in April but as yet we have heard nothiing definite. There can be no objectior made to the farmers meeting, if they desire to do so, but we do not be lieve they will receive much gooc from the proposed convention. A least, it will not benefit them to th<~ extent to which some seemr to think The right which has been goingz 0! <for some time past between Presiden Cleveland and the Senate has been: very useless waste of valuable tin! and money. What the republicant hiope to gain we have been unable t< see, except to try to get hold 0 oflm thing out of which to make politica t drin the next campaign. I Whe presidenLt stand firm, as we hay< no doubt he will. nothing can b< gained and if his appointments are re jectedl he can make oth-ar democrat. hap py. It has develop)ed some youn;~ orators in the Senate who probabl: bp.for this would not have had am occasion to let the world know wh:a was in them. -'Circumiistances miak< men. The farmers' convention is called to meet at a very busy season. W< doubt very much if it will pay th< farmers to leave their business ai this season of the year to attend con ventions. *'And who is to be the real, origina Sand only "Agricultural Moses?" "T< ha m.o not in be, that's the questin.' LYNCH LAW. There are certain crimes whiel should receive speedy and certai: punishment. For the punishment o such offfenders the courts are seldon ealled into requisition. The law' delay and the many evasions of jUS tice are urged as an excuse for a outtraged community to rise in it miIht as one man and inet out ster' justce to all such o1lenders. We d not advocate lynch law in Uny form! but .i extrem cases it is probabl: excusable. The only difiiculty is that when it is sanctioned at Lll, tl tendency is that the 1People becomn too reaiv to take the law into th(i own hands and admiuister it 1o sma!!er offenees, and somnetilmeS, i the heat of passion and excitemeni they do not wait evei lein-g enough t ascertain with certainty whether the. have the proper person. They fe( that th: have been outraged and th life of some one must he sacrificed. We have had several cases c lynching in this state recently an the thing is likely to become too fr( quent. The langing o" the neg boy inl IIa:m.pton sole time ago w-1 not a cas of s( serious a nature i to justifv such extreme measure: We mention this case simply to sho what the tendency is if lynch law i tolerated at all. The Greenville News of yes,erda relates the story of Charles llavkiii who made a felonious assault on white lady in Sparianlurg sever. months ago, and who, wIt EdA. Bund) who was being tried .Or murder, ha to he slipped away froL the Spartai burg jail and carried to Columbia t avoid the mob, and who was recentl slipped back to Greenville; and b cause the officers were afraid of tI lvichers the trial was removed, witi out any noise over it, to Greenvilh where Hawkins was permitted to sli into court and plead guilty and rI ceive fifteen years in the penitentiari The lynchers in Spartanburg als wantcd Bundy, who has since bee convicted of inurder, and is now u der sentence of death. It is a sa commentary on our civilization or 0 our courts of justice, or both, wle an outraged community feel that i order to have vengeance on the crin inal they must take the law in thei own hands. We confess that ti reading of this account in the New vesterday, of the dodging around wit this man Tiawkins. sounds very muc to us like a travesty on our court and justice. Th~e slowness of ou courts in many instances to mete 0r justice to the ofTender, is no doub in great measure, the cause of thi state of affairs. A HISTORY OF SOUTH CAROLINi Wi'e agree with our contemporar2 the Abbeville Messenger that thier is a fine apportunity awaiting so-m ifted son of South Carolina in th Ipreparation of a history of this Stat -adopted to use in our schools. W know of no such book. and ther is certainly great need of one. Tl lamented A. C. Garlington, of thi fcounty, told us on one occasion the lhe was engaged in writing a histor of this State. We know of non: more competent to perform that tas than he was. But the summons camr and called him hence, before th work was finished. How much of he had p)erformned or what the gen ral p)lanm of his undertaking was, ~ are not informed. Neither are w informed whether any arrangement are being made by the family to hav the work comleted or not. WX would be glad if some competer man could take up the stylus an complete the work so noblyh beg'u If this cannot be done, let some- con -petent and well informed man go 1 work and give us a good and corre< history of our State. We believe that thlis country hu too mnuch legislation, and that ele< tions are too frequent. We believ it would be better to have biennit sessions of the Legislature and ele< -members every four years. We b< hoeve it would b)e better for the coun try. We searceiy get out of the e: citement and turmoil of one electio: before we are into another. Wihe: ever time Legislature assembles, course. something must bie done. son young Solon wants to make a. recor to discuss before his constitunentsi the next camipaign,.and : " fires awa more to have somuethinig to say that with a vi ew to the wants of the lpe< pe. Le us have bien nia! sessIor of the~ Legislature. We des1cire to call attention to) ti sugg'estion ofTered in our last issu by Col. Ellison S. Keitt in regard 1 work on our publhic roads. We kno notingii of th e mnachi ne whi(ch lhe miei tions. hut if it wi!l do anything li wihat is claimed for it. the subjet should receive consideration at tl hands of our commissioners and pe ple. There is gzreat complaint ever year by the people- at the conditio of the roads, and if any means coul be adopted by which we could has good roads it will be heartily r eeived by our people. Let our con missioners look into this matter. ICongrcssmnan Hemplhill is said t have made quite an excellent spec in Congress a few days ago on th: TEACHER D1 PA MI&NT. V . VEFLCH. A. M.. IITr)I,. About Reading Decimals. Most persons rc verY carelkss in critical it is r p .:i m sibeto bers is meant. when th. number rea 1is a tecimal Cra ti.o o conlta'is a deciial 1ra.tio. Th1 1oiiuity arises from a t,) careiss and inaccu rate uie of the word n:4. uiced r this inaccuracy is so com:n as rare r Iv tC attract ttention. I Tnke a few examples as illuistra , tions. S uposwc ar rcquire(l to D read the numbiiker G8-4. Niety-lilne y of every o::e hundred persons would I read si. h itrlret l t ( 'I'/'-J I. e Well. if this were all. one could not easily sus"ain any fbjection. But f suppose we are required to real .GS4 (and 00.084. In thc first instance, we com mon read z:. :looIlrel <ml <':hy o j,r on.tho;(sumiths; in the secon( in s stance. six hir. ldnd e'i1.ir S one-thousamIths. Now, by having the . combinatious of figures before us, v we know in a given case. to which we s refer. Let us reverse the case. Write six h hi,irwl il e' h1,1- one-fhom 5. s;fwlths. We write i- thus : 000.084. a Some one else writes .6m. and is as Ll confident of the correctnes-s of his I, form as we are of ours. Now, in a d given case, which form is correct? 1 It is absolutely impossible to tell. o Why? Because the word mod is care y lessly and inaccurately used. I There is a sLmple remedy. how e ever, and it is strange that so few i- teachers require their pupils to ob , serve the proper use of this highly p i important conjunction i n reading decimal fractions. The rule is to use AND only in ruul oj c,iy the decimal point. Thus. 600.084 is read si. 71u1Wred -j- erlhtyjour one thoisuamiths; .684 is read .six hun J <irei ciyhtlq-juur one-thousamIih. W e n use m,ll when. in readng tle first n number, we reach the decimal point. n As the second number is entirely t decinal-,ractional we need not use r untl. Never use (wl unless the num e her has an integral and a fractional s I)art. This. G.5=:.11. and we read h the first so: anwjlc.tent/s; the second. h six un<! one-half. s If one will examinle into tis sub .r ject he will find that we are not hyper t critical; nor are we finding a difli L cultv where none exists. The difli S culty is real, tihe remedy simple andl effective. . The Call to the School Trustees. e We are pleased to know that the e County Board of Examiners have is e sued a call to tihe schlool trustees to e meet in the School Commissioner's e office on next Saturday for the pur' e pose of considering the several ob e jects included in the call. There is s no doubt that if all the trustees will tattend this meeting, resolved to (10 v whatever is best to improve the work e ings of the school system. much good kwill result. e In some townships one practice e prevails; in other townips a difTer t ent p)ractice is followed. Some . first-grad1e teachers receive a certain e compensation; others, a difTerenit e compensation. In some riistricts s comfortable houses have been provi e ded; in others, more inconvenient e and uncomfort able buildings could it Ihardly he found anywhere. Some d trustees have taken the pains to as Icertain tile needs of their schools. I. others apparently hanve given the osub/ject very little thought. tA free conference will expose th" mistakes of some. and give prmi nence to the p)rogressive mo)vements sof others; and all the trustees mayv . ind it profitable to know each other e better. One of the difficulties to be Iencountered. in the eniorts now muak t n to improve our edIucat.ional sys tem,iis thle want of intimacy among teachers and trnstees of tie ditierenlt to,wnsh ips. The Teachlers Associa nlion hopes to) unitu the teachers in .1one c ommon etTort to imiprove their -eP ini meting~ of trustees should unite d thiese oflicers in the determination to ~n suply~ our school roomis withi tihe y bet)pphanfce's their nmeans will al ,. Te subjects to be discussed are 2)pointed; the necessity to have greater uni formiitv in school work is urgent conferences of school trustees are epracticable; and the need of advance e m'enit aulong the whiole line of school owork is felt. We shall expect this i movement to be fruitful. e Mr. J. S. Whieeler tells us that lhe tls ihad miore than sixty p)upils in ehis school. Ilis sister. Miss Mary, .assisted him during a p)art of thIe v time, when he was most busy. Some nof his p)upils are withdrawing to he d gin work oin the farm. This is to be e regretted, as it interferes very se.ri .ously with successful school work. . But many parents can not avoid stopping their children during the spring months. h An article onl Englishl Grammar e camec too late for this issue. It will appoe nevx: week. Reading Cireles.
