It'looks as if the centennial year is going to pass without any obser vance by the people of Newberry. The political cauldron in this County will begin to boil early in the new year, from present indica. tions. From what we can learn it is beginning to "simmer" already. Nothing like making it lively for the boys. The celebration of the centennial of the adoption of the federal con stitution took place in Philadelphia last week. All of the Governors of the original thirteen States were present with their staffs. It was a grand affair well befitting the occa sion. One hundred years of American history marks wonderful progress in every department of art and science. It is well occasionally to review the past and contemplate our history. A personal difficulty recently oc curred at Manning between Editor Dinkins of the Times and Editor Witherspoon of the Enterprise. Mr. Dinkins struck Mr. Witherspoon with a cane but the belligerent ed itors were soon separated. The diffi culty grew out of a controversy in the two papers over the management of the county finances. Money will make even editors fight though it be other peoples' money. Col. Fred Grant has been nomi nated by the Republicans of New York for Secretary of State. The Democratic newspapers say that the Republicans hope to elect him on his father's reputation. This is very cruel to young Grant. He should show them that he has merit of his own and that hie means to stand on it. We do not believe that the fact that he is his father's son will either help or retard him very much in securing the prize. We see it stated that the world's suppjy of wheat is sufficiently large to keep the price down and insure cheap bread-stuff. The available supply in the United States is esti mated at 500,000,000 bushels. Says a cotemporary: "This insures plenty for home con sumption and for export, if necessa b-, ut the price is so low that very at e e ~~~~e a farmer after paying the expenses of trans portation to a market. Taking the situation altogether. with a big corn crop in the South this year and cheap flour, the prospect for the Southern farmer is much better than that of the Western producer, who can only raise one crop which, by reason of its great abundance, he is compelled to sell at a low price. If our Southern farmers could only be induced to raise their food sup. plies at home, the South in ten years would be the most prosperous part of the United States. .No matter how cheap wheat and. meat can be bought in the WVest, it is true economy to make our own food supplies." - This is very true and we believe our farmers are convinced that it is better for them to raise their own ra tions at home than to buy them from the West, it matters not how cheap they may be, and,as far as practicable they are practicing this rule. The corn crop the present year is very good and we believe the acreage is considerably larger than usual. We take it that the condition of the farmers another year will be much better than it has been for some time past. The cotton this year is going to turn out very fair, although not as large as was at one time ex pected. The farmers who bought on liens, are paying up very well as a rule, but are spending but little mon ey. If the farmer can become pros j.erous all business in our section will revive. The Augusta Chronicle urges the education of women as important to fit them for the trades, and to make them better qualified for the duties of life and the necessities in many cases of earning a livelibood. It says: "Tife time for the practical educa tion of women has come. It is as *much the duty of the State to train women in the trades, the arts and the sciences as it is to train men. Thaeir capabilities to exact from the world a living have been practically demonstrated and their right to de mand of our government technical 'aid industrial education that they may be the better prepared to as sume responsibilities and discharge duties in life, is just." There can be little doubt that our women and girls should be educated, as wcll as our boys. Even if it is not necessary for them to enter the trades to earn a living, their educa tion is important, for the mothers of ence over the training of their sons. The impressions and instructions of car the boys in the home circle have a co great deal to do with the future life and usefulness of the boys, who are C, growing up. quit By all means our girls should be sevE educated. Ho inte Ittt BARTLETT SEEN IN TEXAS. ordt seer SUMTER, September 18.-Mr. E. W. Moise, Jr., a son of Mr. Charles H. mee Moise of this town, has written home aetn that he saw Charles E. Bartlett, our.de- reg faulting bank cashier, in S:tn AntoCio,R Texas, a few days ago. Mr. Moise has been a resident of S.n Antanio for a visa number of years, and knew Bartlett pla both out there and at home. This veri- Safe fies the belief that many persons have h in that Bartlett went to Mexico although SlO it is somewhat a mystery how he could coul have also been seen in Washington and th New York, as has been reported on re liable authority. There is also a belief boa among a large number of people-here thiti that he has gone to South Aneri-a. a When he took the :ortheastern train as for Charleston, on the night of his flight, . he could have continued to Tampa, Fla., thei and reached that city the same day that a vessel was advertised to sail for South ra America. torea There is nothing new relative to the rea bank failure. Receiver Phillips isquiet- exc ly working away winding up the busi- plea ness, although it is hard to tell when he ta will finish. Bartlett's bondsmen hold occasional meetings. but nothing can be ss is C gotten out of them concerning their pro- fro posed course. Some of them intend to rot tight to the last against being held liable, !lt while a number of them express them- issc selves as willing to pay up their quota fo e about it. It is not yet known whether the or not the matter will be tried at the October Court. woI WHOSE HUSBAND ? . oi at t Two Wives Claiming One Husband--A we Case of Identity. beei Roa Columbia Record. 17th. wl Judge John H.

H.Wallace StruekWith a Cane by M1r. P. G. Bowman.whom he had Aeeuued of Drawing on the Bank when he had no Money. Special to Newos and Courier. SUMTER, September 19.-Quite a rip ple of excitement was caused here this morning by a fight between Col. R. M. Wallace, president of the defunct Sum ter National Bank, and Mr. P. G. Bow man. It seems that in examining the bank papers the receiver found among other vouchers drafts amounting to over $.,000, which h:.d been drawn by Mr. Bowman on the bank last year. Col. Wallice mentioned this fact to a gentle man in tewil and added that Mr. Bow man had no money in the bank when the drafts were drawn. Mr. Bowman heard of the remark and meetiitg Col. Wallace on Main street, in front of the Courthou,e thi. morning, asked him about it. Col. Wallace re plied that he had said it, whereupon Mr. Bowman said that he did have mo ney in the bank when he made the drafts and told Col. Wallace that he was a liar, adding that he thought Wallace was as deep in the bank robbery as Bart lett. Wallace gave Bowman the lie, and the latter immediately struck him across the head and shoulders twice with a light bamboo cane which he, carried in his hand. Col. Wallace caught the cane out of Mr. Bawman's hand, when Bow man drew his pistol. Several bystanders then rushed up and parted the combat ants. Poth n ere arrested but were re leased after being summoned before the Police Court in the morning, when all the facts and circotnst.dnwes of the case will receive an offivial investigation. At the time the drafts referred to were 1 drawn Mr. Bowman had money in the bank amounting to about $4,000, about $600 being hi.4 own, and about $3.340 be longing to two clients, for whom he had collected from the Wilmington, Colum bia and Augusta Railroad Company on judgments obtained against that com pany. Col. Wallace says that there was. no deposit credited to Mr. Bowman on the book" when the drafrs were made. There is a report on the streets that Receiver Phillips has discovered an error in the bank examiner's estirnate of the defaleation amounting toabout $14,000 in favor or the bank Mr. Phillips refuses to say anything about the ma: ter, bit does not deny the truth of the rumor. M'Glynn AddreMses Five Hundred Protestant PreacherA. NEW YONK, September 19.-The Rev. Dr. McGlynn made an address before the New York Association of Met hodist Preachers, th!s morning, which lasted an hour and a half, and w:as listened to by 500 ministers an.1 others. McGlynn referred to his excommunication -for preaching the Chri -ianity I was brought up in," and after referring to the pecu liar position in which lie found him:elf in f.Lcing a body so distinctively repre sentative of the Protestant religion, he presented Henry George's land theories and defended them as representing the cause of humanity. When the speaker had conclu-led, a gentleman offered a resolution of th:mks to Dr. McGlynn for his "able, eloquent and instructive address," and n ishing him God-speed in his effort to diffuse the doctrine of "the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of mat." This created great confusion, and after a tur bulent scene, which one clergyman cha racterized as resembl:ng a he::r garden, the resolution was amendedl by a clause that allowed menmbers to reserve the right of individual opinion concerninug land theories, and wvas adopted.

The decision of the Court is that the minister be su.ipended from his holy office for the four months next ensuing, which will allow his case to :.ome before the General Methodist Con ference, which meets at about that time, before he will again be allowed to offi ciate as pastor. The Sumter Street Fight. Special to News and Courier. SUMTER, Sept. 20.-At the Mayor's Court this mortning two charge~s were brought against Mr. P. G. Bowman, as the outcome of his assault on Col. R. M. Wallace yesterday. The ilrst wvas a charge of fighting and disorderly con duct on the streets. Mr. Bowman pleaded guilty to this count andl was lined twenty-five-dollars. The s'cond charge was for e-arry;ing a concealed weapon. Mr. Bowman pleaded not guilty, and quite a number of witnesses were examined. The charge, however, was not sustained, and the case was dismissed. Mr. Bowman made a protest against the fine for disorderly conduct, on the ground that it was excessive. The Court refused to reduc~e it, however, on the groundl that it desired to put a stop to difficulties between gentlem,en of high standing on the street, and if a low tiue wvele imposed it would have no ef fect. Mr. R. D. Lec was presenit as counsel for Col. Wallace, but no charges were preferred against that gentleman. For the HERALD AND NEW'u. He Belonged to the Temperance. M15.

In the Prosperity correspondence the Newberry HERALD AND NEWS, August 25th, over the nom de plum "Yube," there appeared the follos paragraph : " Last week the Prosperity Press Reporter announced that the business lations of Mr. A. M. Lester were of s1u character that he could not accept the sition of town clerk to which he had b, elected. This week Mr. Lester assut the duties of said office. "'Noth~ strange happens in times of war." The above paragraph seems to L elicited the follow;ng "card" from Mr M. Lester: For the Press and Reporter. A CARD. This is to certify that what was in local columns of the Press and Repo of.August 18, 1887, concerning my b ness being such as would prevent serving as clerk and treasurer of town council was correct. And was n I inform( d the local editor. I am c holding .n at present by request of co cil. A. M. LESTEI Now, Mr. Editor, the idea conve: and the inference drawn from the at certificate is that I have reflected. upon "-eracity of the local editor of the P and Reporter, or at the least have trea him with injustice. I emphatically claim any such intention, and I do think that any such construction can placed upon the language that I use< so, my memory in regard to construci and precision has become exceedin treacherous. Let us examine the ] guage. of the sinful paragraph brie The first proposition is, that Mr. Le was elected town clerk, and so stated the Press and Reporter in local colun This is correct-no one denies it. I not deny it. The second propositiot that Mr. Lester, on account of busix relations, could not accept. This i truth which no one will attempt to de Then follows this language : "This w Mr. Lester assumed the duties of said fice." This is also correct. Mr. Les himself, says it is true. Then where, where, is my crime ?~ It is a truth t Mr. Lester was elected town clerk; it truth that he said he could not accept,S it is a truth that afterwards he did se and is still serving. Nothing wron this-surely not. A man has a perj right to change his opinion, and all v men do. There is no human so infalli )r immutable as not infrequently to f a change of opinion beneficial. But it n be that the trouble lies in the last s tence--a quotation : " Nothing strax bappens in times of war." If so, let ary and explain it. It is a phrase t ad its origin in camp life. It was lp verbial among the soldiers. For instan a "stray" Minnie ball kills a lonely pic a mile distant. Nothing strange. A s explodes in the ranks and kills a do men. Nothing strange. Again it p1< armlessly through the ranks. Noth trange. Men go hungry and ragg NTothing strange. Soldiers march thro ice and snow with bleediug feet. Noth strange. Nothing strange to go with food or money. Nothing strange for y right and left comrade to be shot on eit side of you, and hundreds of other thi happened in times of war. The idea c vyed in my quotation is that it was at all strange, and surely no harm for Lester to change his opinion if he saw and proper. I do not desire a newspa controv'ersy with any one. I am a w aewspaper correspondent, but I have ways given and will ever endeavor give the public a truthful and faithful port of all things proper to be writtei mnd around our town, and to advance best interests of our town and cotnu aity.
