NEWBERRY, S. C,
THURSDAY, MAY 5, 1887. 1
Col. James L. Orr, Solicitor of the
' Eighth Judicial Circuit, has positive
ly announced that he will not be a
candidate for re-election.
W. J. Whipper, .now Probate
-Judge of Beaufort County, is in jail
on the charge of malfeasance in
office. He tried to get out by habeas
corpus, but Judge Aldrich refused
his petition.
The sudden death of CoL. Orville T.
C lhoun, in Columbia the other day,
on his return to his home in Abbe
ville, is another striking example of
how easily and how suddenly the
silken cord of life may be loosed. It
was only on Tuesday of last week
that we saw him and talked with
him, in full vigor and strength, and
apparently 'with many years yet be
fore him -of usefulness and promise.
The next Tuesday he is taken to his
home a corpse. Col. Calhoun was a
young man of promise, a pleasant
gentleman and a good lawyer. We
regret his untimely death.
GOOD MEN.
"The parents that educate six
sober, industrious, God fearing sons
or daughters, or both, are the means
of placing a power for good in the
world, which the man who endows a
university with a million dollars may
not equal. However useful good in
stitutions are (and their value can
hardly be over estimated), good men
are the real power for good in the
world ; and good men are produced
in the family. The world may suc
ceed quite well with poor institutions,
if there be an abundance of good,
God fearing men. But the very best
institutions cannot save the world
when there are no good men."
We quote the above from the
Lutheran Visitor editorial of the asso
ciate editor on "Unnoticed Saints."
Good men is the great need of these
times as has been the case in all ages
zof the world.
We want good men in matters of
Church and State, in politics, in
business, in everything. It is a
broad term and embraces a great
deal.
The way to supply this want is the
problem of the age. The work must
begin in the home, around the fire
side. Christian mothers and Chris
tian homes wield a mighty power in
-producing good men. The future
-destiny of the country, to a great ex
tent, is in the hands of the mothers
of the country. A great responsibili
ty it is, but it must be borne. The
early impressions on the mind of the
boy are the lasting ones, and when
once started in the proper paths it is
difficult .to divert his steps. Now
and then one goes astray and fogets
his early training, but it is rare.
Give us good men and we will
have good measures, good govern
ment.
[~ . - Christian homes, Christian schools,
Chrigian influences and we will
have good men.
The power for good wielded by
good men can never be estimated nor
appreciated in this world.
IS THE LAW VIOLATED?
Section 1014 of the General
Statutes provides, that "each County
Board of Examiners shall have power
to limit the school term according to
the school fund of their counties,"
etc. This is the law which even the
State Superintendent is obliged to
obey until it has been declared un
constitution.al, and if it was not the
intention of the Legislature to give
some discretion in this matter, why,
we ask, was not a proviso inserted
therein to the effect that . the term
should not be for less than six
months ?-Abberille Messenger.
The Statutes define the duties of
the State Superintendent of Educa
tion and it is his business to follow
the law asilaid down there. As will
be seen from the above, section 1014
of the General Statutes provides
whose duty it shall be to limit the
school term, and if the law is violated
in not making the term six months
as the constitution provides, then
this Statute is unconstitutional, but
it has never been so declared and
must be followed. The County
Board of Examiners are the ones to
limit the school term, Section 1014
of General Statutes says they shall
have power, "to regulate the opening
and closing of the schools in such
manner as will best subserve the
educational interests of different
localities," provided they shall not
make contracts in excess of the
school fund apportioned to their dis
4.
trict. So it would seem that the
school term is left in. the discretion
of the County Board of Examiners,
by the Statute law of the State.
They have discretion to make the
fil
term long and reduce the pay per at
month .of teachers, or to shorten the
term and increase the pay per month. c
As the law stands we do not think T
fa.
the Superintendent of Education has g
violated it, and we think it wrong to
charge him with violating the law. w
We believe Mr. Rice is taking great
interest in the schools and doing'
what the law provides he shall do in 3
section 987 of the General Statutes, te
'viz : visiting the different counties in i
the State, making public addresses, ti
and endeavoring to infuse new life
in thypublic schools. T
Wiether it is better to lengthen !i
the school term and reduce the pay a
per month from the public and de- -"
pend on the patrons to supplement fi
it, or whether it is better to shorten tl
the term and increase the pay per A
month, we will not discuss in this T
N
connection. h

ELECT JUDGES FOR LIFE.
-I
A decided and practical reform in
the administration of justice would 0,
be secured in the election of Judges ai
for life or good behavior. If the law- A
yers have power in the Legislature to t'
defeat a reform of the criminal code,
p
as Solicitor Orr charges, then 'they a
have power enough to make a candi- b
date for re-election to the judgeship a
feel his dependence on their favors T
and good wishes-and this ought not b
to be so. Elect the Judges for life, Si
and they will be more independent
and more fearless indischargingtheir
duties.-Newberry Observer.
We heartily agree with our local
cotemporary in this matter of electing r
judges, and advocated this reform tt
several years ago. Our judges are
human, and possessed of all the d
weaknesses incident to ordinary mor- u
tals. They depend upon the popular ti
favor for their tenure of office, and
they desire to retain their positions. is
They should be placed above the C
suspicion of courting the popular
favor in order to retain their posi
tion. When a lawyer is elevated to u
the bench he gives up his practice, P
and if he should be dropped he will c
again have to go to work to build up
his practice. When he is put on the
bench he should be made feel that r
M
his position there was permanent so a
long as he discharged the duties of
his office faithfully and well. s
It should not be necessary for hinr '
"
to dabble in politics at all. ti
Yes, we repeat, elect judges for life t
and place them where they will be d
independent of politics and political 5
scrambles in order to retain their
positions.
OPPOSED TO POVERTY.
"Henry George says poverty is a
crime and has organized an anti- ~
poverty society. Mr. George is right. 3
If he will send any surplus funds the
society has to this office we will c
promise to use it as far as the amount
will go in the reformation of crime
right here. We think it has gone
unchecked long enough and will be
glad to swear off from it for good.
We see the error and folly of it fully d
now and are at last ready to accept a
the wealth so often spred
It will be more convenient and 'I
pleasant if Mr. George will forward a
his crime cure in currency by express.
The banks here are a little shakey on b
checks given solely for the repression tl
of poverty and we are sincerelyb
anxious to prove our penitence by e
leaving off the long continued evilr
courses of the past as quickly as
possible."-Greenville News.
IYes, and if Mr. George should by
any oversight in his strong opposi
tion to poverty send our Greenville a
cotemporary more than he needs, b
why, he might send just a little down
this way. We have always been op.
posed to the crime of which Mr.t
-George complains, and have beenr
doing our best to bring about reforma
in this matter, for some time. We o
hope Mr. George will be successful
in his efforts to suppress the spread sl
of poverty, whether it is a crime to
be poor or not.
CENTENNIAL YEAR.
"This year is the Centennial of the
Town of Newberry. The occasion C
ought to be celebrated in some man-a
ner bpfitting so important an epocha
in oui- history.".-Newberry Obseriter.
One hundred years old. There is a:
much history in these hundred years
and some competent person should ti
collect it and put it in proper shape
for the use of future generations. It
would be a good time to republish
Judge O'Neall's Annals of Newberry e
01
and bring them down to the present. in
We agree with our cotemporary that t
the occasion of our one hundredth w
birthday as a town should be fitting- b:
hi
ly celebrated. Who will take the t~
initiative in the movement? P

A Sad and Sudden Death.
Columbia Register, May 3.
Orville T. Calhoun, Esq., a well known
sident of Abbeville, died early yester
ty morning at the Grand Central Ho
1 in this city.
This brief statement includes all the
)sential facts in connection with the
ath, as sad as sudden, of a gentleman
atimely cut off in the very prime of
anhood, being but 39 years of age at
to time of death.
Mr. Calhoun was a distant relativ.. of
:h)n C. Calhoun, and had been in Char
ston last week in attendance on the
remonies of the unveiling of the statue
> his famous kinsman.
He came to this city on Thursday of
st week, too ill at the time to register
imself, and was immediately placed
nder the care of Dr. Kendall, an ex
erienced nurse secured. and every pos
ble attention given. Col. J. Q. Marshall,
ol. R. C. Watts, of Laurens, and other
ilends here being with him much and
eing that all comforts were supplied.
Mr. Calhoun's condition continued se
ous, and his relations in Abbeville
-ere telegraphed to. Sun day afternoon,
fter a brief absence of the nurse with
2e physician to obtain needed medicine,
sudden change for the worse was ob
arved in the patient, and it wvas feared
i delirium he had taken an over-dose'
f an opiate, though it is also stated that
mere was not enough in the bottle in
be room to constitute a fatal dose.
Dr. Taylor was summoned by Dr. Ken
all in consultation, and everything pe.s
ible done to effect an improvement in
Lie critical condition of the patient, but
1 spite of everyceffort he steadily grew
reaker and died at about 2 o'clock in
'me morni-.g. Dr. Kendall remained by
is bedside until the very last andl ex
austed the resources of medical seience
Shis behalf, but as stated, in.vain.
The remains were properly preparedl
nd sent by the 11 o'clock train to Abbe
ille, many friends and members of thme
>al bar attening them to the depot.
The deceased leaves a wife and one
bild.

The Frenen Spoliation Claims.
\Asx:GToa. April 30.--The Court
of Claims has arranged for the trial
of the French spoliation claims, be
ginning on May 0. Only about four
weeks will be devoted to this busi
ness. as the Court adjourns for the
Summer on June 6. The actual
spoliation cases in condition for trial
number 1.60 0. and these include
3,500 supposed valid claimants. while
there are 4,700 pretended and real
claimants. In other words. a large
portion of the so-callel claims have
no shadow of legal foundation. The
total a mount demanded aggregates
about 1.O ),.0. Many of the
supposed seizures by French turn
out to be seizures by English and
German vessels.
The original claimants now living
are comparatively few, the great body
of claimants being remote heirs. The
effort in the last Congress to get an
extension of one year longer for fil
ing additional claims failed. and the
entire matter is now concluded for
the time being, at least so far as new
claimants are concerned. As yet
there has been no legal definite de
cision upon these French spoliation
cases by the Supreme Court. though
the Court of Claims has twice decided
in favor of the claimants.
It was only three years ago that
Congress gave the Federal Courts
jurisdiction for trial of the facts
alleged in these demands, notwith
standing the claims had been pend
ing in the executive and legislative
departments for nearly three (uar
ters of a century. Even after the
Courts shall have adjudged in favor
of any of these claims, the decision
will not enforce direct payment, for
Congress will, after all, be depended
uipon for an appropriation to meet
the judgment of the Court.

COLUMBIA, May 3.-The directors
of the Columbia. Newberry and

ATLANTA BOYS LOOSE.
'he Greed for Liquor and the Dis
graceful Scenes.
. le;,l to the Augusta Chronicle.
ATLANT.%. G.1.. May 3.-The artil
lerv picnickers went to New Holland
Springs to day, and had a livelier
time than the program called for. As
soon as they arrived they found a
man with ive big jugs awaiting them.
Strict rules had been laid down for
the enforcement of order and so
briety. Very few moments were
given the jug.s and their proprietor to
leave the grounds. The order was
obeyed, but as soon as ejected the
liquor seller reached the town and
sent out a number of hacks to con
vey passengers at a cut rate to
Gainesville where his bar was situ
ated. A number of prohibition
parched Atlanta boys availed them
selves of the opportunity, .and in
spite of the utmost efforts of Cnptain
Jones seconded by the members of the
company so much drunkenness pre
vailed that frequent ejectments from
the ladies' car became necessary on
the Rome trip. Finally the captain
was obliged to order the door of the
smoking cars locked upon the besott
ed inniates. Many of them were
belligerent as well as drunk, and the
packed cars were .soon converted in
to a battle field. The bruising was
allowed to take its course after the
locking of the doors, but though some
ugly knocks were received nobody
was seriously hurt in the melee. One
unhappy individual before leaving
the neighborhood of Gainesville. is re
ported to have been severely knifed
by an Atlanta boy, whom he was en
deavoring to take back to the spring
while the latter was drunk. The ex
cursion returned minus fourteen of
its patrons, who engaged in a row
with parties in Gainesville, and found
their way to the station house of that
place, where they still remain. In
spite of the disorderly mob, the ar
tillery, by strenuous efforts, managed
to protect the ladies from annoyance.
The excursion is said to have been
very enjoyable. Members of the
company discharging orders were
several times threatened by the ir,e
briated passengers.
An Old Shell Explodes.
A shell which has'been buried at Bol
man Heights, near Harper's Ferry,
since the war, was exploded by some
boys on Sunday afternoon, and six per
sons were severely injured. The place
is a great Sunday resol t for the residents
in the vicinage, and on the day of the
accident the missile was found by two
boys, who undertook to ascertain if it
were loaded. They prized the month of
the shell open with an iron rod, and be
gan digging out the powder. The rod
coming in contact with the iron sides of
the shell caused a spark, and the explo
sion followed. Buildings in a radius of
100 yards were shaken, and the ground
was torn up all around where the shell
was burned. Several pernsoins were
knocked down by thme .shoek, but only
six were wounded.

In returning thanks to you for my niracu-i
)s cure of eczema or salt rheum", I deem it
avisable to give yeu a letailed slcCount of
y case, an d as there is. and al ways will be
prejudice against advertised remedies,
ou have my consent to publih this . s
ionial. and all inquiries, by letter or in p
Dn. I will cheerfully answer. I do this that
eople who go on year after year paying out
rge sums of money to incompetent physi
ans and receive no cure, or even re!ief, or ]
nd in filling a premature grave, as was near
imy case may be induced to make trial of
e wonderful CU'TicUR. REMEDIES..
At the age of three months a rash made its
ppearance on my face. A phys.cian was
alled. he said teething was the cause. he pre
cribed some coo.ing medicine. bit the sores
pread to my ears and head. Another 31. D.
aq called. He professed to know all about
ie case, called it "King's Evil," and pre
cribed gunpowder, brimstone, and lard
i ixed into a salve, but the dispase continued'.
%ey could not do anything with it Another
rescribed borax water and flour; another.
useed poultices. None of them did me any
ood at all, but made me worse. The disease
ontinuedl unabated: it spread to my arms
nd legs. till I was laid tip entirely, and from
ontinual sitting on the floor on a pillow my
imbscontractea so that I lost all control of
.lem, and was utterly help!ess. Miy mother
onl< have to lift we out an(i into bed!. I
ould get around the house on my hands and
et, but I could not get -ny clothes on at all.
ad had to wear a sort ot dressing gown. -My
air had all matted down or fallen otr, and
ny head, face, and ears were one scab. and
had to have a towel on my li=d all the
ime in. the summer to keep the flies otr. My
oarents consulted a prominent. physieian and
urgeon here inChicago (the other physicians
efore mentionad were or Dundas and Ham
Iton, Canada), he sa d lie could do nothing
r mp, that the chances were that I would
row out of it. or that A would strike in ward
y and kill me in time. He wanted to cut
he siiews o'f my legs so tbt i could walk,
t Iwould not let him, for if I did.get better
would have no control of them.
The disease continul-d In this manner until
was seventeen years old, anl one day in
anuary, 1879, in the Chicago Tril>une, I read
1l account of your mie(icines. They de
ribed my case so exactly that I thought, as
last resort, to give them a trial.
When I first applied the CUTICURA, I was
LI raw and bleeding Irom scratching inyself,
at when I applied it I went asleep almost
medately, romething. I had no t :ne for
ears, the efrect was so soothing.

ho most important feature is that they
