ELBERT H. AULL, EDITOR. ELBERT H. AULL, . WM. P. HOUSEAL, .Propnetors. NEWBERRY, S. C, THURSDAY, JANUARY 31, 188f. The Three C's Railroad has only re cently been in operation to Lancaster. The Lancaster Ledger of recent date states that a reduction in freights has been the result. The rate on cotton, for instance, to Charleston has been re duced 9 cents on the hundred, and a proportionate rate on other freight. This is a benefit the farmer will receive. A like reduction would be the result if -_could ever get our division con pleted. But when will our division of the Three C's be built? That is the question. 3-ore;tian half of the members ofthe United States Senate are millionaires. Mr. W. D. Washburn, recently elected a member of this body from Minnesota, is said to be worth $5,000,000. He made his money in the lumber business. The Columbia Evening Record has been sold by the present proprietor, Mr. W. Nelson Emlyn, to a company of Columbia capitalists who will take charge about the first of February. Mr. Gibbs Gardiner will be managing editor. The paper will be enlarged and otherwise improved, and will be issued every afternoon of the week except Sunday and Monday. On Monday a weekly edition will be issued in the morning. We wish the new enterprise every success. , ~-,The Orangeburg Times and Demo ,. crat of last week says. "Blind eyed jus tice will be satisfied at this term of the court to convict a one-armed negro out of nine people charged with murder. The dignity and majesty of the law must be maintained, if even it does hang a negro or two occasionally." The Orangeburg sessions had a heavy docket and all the capital cases resulted in an acquittal, except the one case mentioned. The tomato crop as put up in cans last year is estimated by the American Grocer to have cost the consumers about $S,000,000. There was a total of 79,666,48S cans, which cost at the fac tory about $6,000,000. The industry has grown considerably in the last year in the Southern States. There is room for still more growth in the South of this industry, and a small factory here at Newberry, we do not believe, would be a bad investment. Amidst the dscussion of the public highways in the country, it might be .4~ell to discuss the matter of better streets in the town. During the wet weather of last week some of the streets in Newberry, and some of the side walks, were almost impassable. At any rate, in such a condition as the princi pal streets and pavements of our town N oug-ht not to be in. A little macada mizing on the most important streets w ould help matters. The matter is w~orthy of a little thought at any rate. MIr. Lewis Purdy has been post master at Shrub Oak, N. Y., for nearly fifty years having been appointed in k14 by Prssident W. H. Harrison, the g~ rand1father of President-elect Harri *son. He is now 93 years old an d his Lwifejs 90 years old. It is said a peti tion will be--presented to President SHarrison- to retire Mr. Purdy and grant hma liberal pension for the remain Sder of his life. We suppose Mr. Purdy is the only appointee of President W. H. Harrison now living, and there will be little opposition 'to his receiving fav ors from the younger Harrison. The Abbeville Press and Banner in Ssneaking of the project to establish a c?on factory in that town says it will not oppose the enterprise. yet it says that "on the mnoral side of the question, it would be better for factory operatives to grow the cotton than to spin and to weave it." That may be true, but will the not building of the factory keep them on the farm. There can be no doubt that there is too great a tendency, on the part of our white people, to leave the farms and move to the towns and cities. We need more producers more small farmers. There are several reasons for this inclination on the part of many of our white people to leave the farm. In some cases they do not fancy the work Teesary to make the farm successful. Tesuccessful farmer must labor with the hand as well as the head. He-must not be simply an overseer. Then the school facilities in many cases are so 'I poor in the country that many people are induced to move to town in order to educate their children. If we could -have a first-class common school in every community, there would be less moving from the farm. SELF EDUCATION. We desire to direct attention to an article on the fourth page of this paper on the subject of self made men. Tbe maxim used is an old and homely one, yet it answers a good purpose in this case. It is a wrong idea that the simple f act of going to a college or a university wsill ediucate a man. The coliege can only furnish him the necessary means. conv eniencies and appliances for educa ting himself. The young man miust have a thirst for knowledge, and a de sire to be educated, and great helps can be given him by the college course: -otherwise the college course will bf worth little. An education cannot be pumped into a man as you would pump a tank full of water. All educa tion is self education in one sense. The college and the university are necessary * but neither can give the young man art education u nkss lie exerts himself. WVt are:s't saymu; one word against thest 1istituio ns, but the young men in oui colleges', and out of them. should be in grossed wviih the idea that education i: constaut work and activity, and drawing out and development of th< faculties of the mind, andI only by con stant and individual efifort and hard work, continuously performed, car they becme educated. THE IMPORTANCE OF UNITY OF ACTION. U We take the following from an ex change. It contains some important truths that are applicable to our town. We need united effort to further the upbuilding and prosperity of our con- t munity. We think it would pay sonic t of our merchants who never advertise to make known their business through the local papers. It would help them and then it would help the papers pub lished in the town. The local papers do a great deal towards the advance merits of the town. They a'e ever ready to lend their aid and their columns to the furtherance of any en- to terprise that is for the good of the town. We say this too in all modesty ani hu- th mility, In their efforts to advance the a, common interest they do no more than s' their duty. But the business men'i o ! are thus benefited could further benefit 3 themselves and aid the support of thu- re papers, at the same time, by adve - tising more freely. ; The business men of the community can in no way better subserve their ; own interests and the inte:ess of the town than by united effort in order to induce trade to the town and by using the local papers freely with their adver- ci ca1 tisements: "In many of the towns of the State it the people act as a unit, and all work to build up and to sustain the interests of the place in which they live. of Experience has proven that a united w people can work wonders, and observa- e tion has convinced us that any town will dry up where the people do not 6 look to the business interests of the fo place. c To open a place of business and never saya word about it in a newspaper is to t keep the fact a secret from the great a mass of the people. + re It is not an uncommon thing for ri some men doing business .o decry the fu value of advertising, but there is no de- CU nyin< the fact that the best business TI men in the country annually spend g, m:llions in advertising." li AN EDITOR ON "HARRISON's POLICY." PC The farmer we suppose gels more i free advice thai any other man. su pecially is the average editor irstituted vi in the use of this commodity. It is all m very well, we suppose, and can do little harm, even if it does no good. The or Press and Banner says a great deal of d anxiety is expressed and many labored articles have been written in the vain effort to forecast the policy of President st towards the South. But there is mt another question that transcends this in importance to the individual farm ers of the country. It is the policy to ee be pursued by the farmers in the work ti of the farm dur'ng the p-esent year. The Press and Banner philosophizes as le follows on "Hai ison's policy:" "We have no disposition to underra:e th any of the great questions which may ag;,ate the couuty, but as a matYYr of I fact a good turnip patch is of more iu portance to the citizen tban any policy Si which Presideift Harrison may adopt. Again, it is not to be denied Uhat a gooa pasiure fence would be won h more to, the farmer than would be his profits! from a factory on the summit of every mn ill in the neighborhood. Again, a good ti mule colt is of more consideration to er the farmer than the defeat or success of' en any politicaf party, i a either State or as naionai polities. Again, a patch of I long-legged blue ste-amiend colads is 1o of-more value in tne support of the family than is the elee;iou of any par-t ticuldr representative to Congress or. the advancement of any citizen to the Ii high ar'd enhled office of Governor' ofo the State. o Then. reader. what will be your poli- hi cy thl yearf That is the (question. Do e~ you intend to make the farm and the A shop self-susi.aining? Do you int end to el sow oats, raise a mule colt, and en large it your pasture fence? These are questions th of a thousand fold more importance thant any definition of 'Harrison's se policy." Judging fromi the number of Ken- t tueky mules sold here every season we should think a good mule colt or two on every farm vould be a good thing. The enlarging of the pasture fence and sowing plenty of oats we should think a would be a good thing also on the farm. R About the "long-legged blue stemmnend S collards" we are not prepared to yen tre an opinion. We make no charge at for giving these suggestions to our w readers.li The evangelist, Rev. R. G Pearson, te has been conducting a series of meetings ai at Greenville during the p-ist week. A b great deal of interest was manifested in" his preaching, and large crowds have w attended all of his services. A great at number of persons professed religion," and it would seem that much good was being accomplished.s Miss Annie A. Hemnphill, daug hter of Gen. R.RP. Hemphill, of the Abbe- T ville Medium, and Dr. G. A. Neuffer, si of Orangeburg, were married on last Thursday. Miss Annie, has filled ac ceptably the position of local editor of the Mediu mn for some time past, and we y' regret to lose her from the ranks, but n we wish her much happiness in her s married life,. The public is between the devil anid La the deep sea. No sooner does a balmy a winter relieve us from the clutches of Si the tyrannous coal barons than we fall o right into the jaws of a crocodile or of fi an ice trust. Verily, the sun may conic, d the snow may go, but the trust goes on ni frever.-New York Herald. And what are you going to do about it. It looks to us as if the public was likely to remain in this position fr some time to come. The Chester Rep)orter has complletedl - its twventieth volume.

"The Legislature of Maine is deluged with petitions in favor of granting the 5 municipal vote to the women of the p~ State. They are signed by people of h both sexes, many of them p)roliinent nI citizens, and the agitat ion on the sub.- V ject is vigoroesly prosecuted. The ad- ' vocaes of the new system point proud- 6 l to the facts that wvomen can now vote at municipal elections in Kansas; that they have the full right of suffrage in Wyoming, and that they are en titled to vote on school questions in ni fourteen States. The latest reports t from Mlaine lead to the opiuion tha t the d peiinr for municipail suflrage foru the women of the state have a grood chance of success in the Lgislature. j11 That no d(oubt will suit the women of Maine, and possib ly p.leases the womnen of Kansas anid Wyoming, but we do not want any wvomen voters in South a Carolina.

[Special to News and Courier.] C' .UMaiA, January 2.-It th Supre:ne Court to-day, in the case of the State ex rel the Charleston, Cincin .:ati and Chicago Railroad Company tt :11 vs the County Conrnissione15 ot Lat?ter County. a mion was rmadec by !rv .

T he detcri,inatiot o the Court ma1:ty, there fore. be expected at any timile after larh, 1. It was further orde-ed that thte re spondtents in, the twV;o York vo,n. ests already menitionted in The N('ws aiid Courier, be granted leave to sub lit their eases under the terms pre scribed as to the Lancaster case just notetd. This, of course, does not abridge the right of the respondents to wait until April 15 to submit their eases, in accordance with previous per mission granted by the Court. They I can wait until the date last named if they choose. The report of fact exclu sively made in The News and Courier is aceorlingaly sustale(, and the pa pters which foreshadowed a probable hear;ig to-day are proved to have been wr oig.. Ahough the York cases may not ('o0:ie to a hearing for nearly three nonlths. the decision in the Ltancaster case, it is expected, will settle the (ues tion at issue, and anticipate the result in the other cases. The facts as tu Lancaster appear to be as follows: "The county commissioners of that county, acting as the financial agents of the township, through which the Three C's' road runs, executed bonds in aid of the road which were deposited with the Boston Safe Deposit and Trust (o:,pany, under a trust indenture that the iust colipany should deliver the bondts to the raiiroad company when ever the certificates signed by he chihcf engtieer of the road were present ed to the trust company, stating that the road wascompleted through ::eh town ships: but these certiieat:s we"-re t' be cottntersigned by a raljority of tihe board of couity Comislione. . The road having been comrlpletc'd through the townships the ccrtificatcs havc been signed by the chief en ineer and presentei, but the comm is:Inr havc refused to countersign them. The ae tion before the Supreme Court is to re quire them to countersign these certifi eates in accordance with their own it denture entered into between them selves and the trust compahy. The refusal of the county comnnlissione)s to act can only be based upon the allega tion that the bonds are invalid. Thus the invalidity of the bonds will be tlt real question, as in the York cases. Thc probability is that the atiorneys fo1 the 'ork and Lancaster officials will unite forces and make the tight of thi Lanicasier case, which will comne uf~ lirst. The Supreme Court, at the con-lusior of t he (lay's b-isiness, adjourned to meel again on the 15th of April. The Columnbia Record Chan-;ew Hand..

This land contains about 140 acres, has four thousand feet river front, it and is on the best point on the pro e- poseI line of the canal, "below Gervias r- Street, for mill sites, as there would be s thirty feet head and fall.

't- For two months workmen have been t- tunnelling Red Mountain, two miles er from this city, the object being to allow st the passage of water from the Catawba er River to Birmingham. From the north heading the tunnel has been completed a distance of 300 feet. A few days ago the workmen struck a cave. This was soon passed, leaving small openings on each side of the tunnel. One day last week an immense amount of dirt and rock from above caved in completely filling the tunnel for a distance of fifty ed feet. >r- When this had been cleared away ba the workmen found themselves in the ,e. centre of a large rock-walled room. The :k cave on the left of the tunnel remained nt unchanged, lbut the opening on the :e, right had extended until it was about le fifty feet in length and fifteen feet high. m11 So'ne of the men started to explore the 11 cave. After a few winding passages he they came to an immerse apening, the Ly descent of which was airlost perpendi za cular. The passages leading to it were its carefully examined. The walls were of .o, solid rock, with only a small crevice ed here and there. At one place a spring ' ofeclear water was found. When first ad discovered a bold stream was flowing, iis but presently it ceased. After an hour 1s- or two it began again. At the beginning of these periodical spurts the water is very cold, but it gets warmer and war mer, until toward the close it has attained the boiling point. It smells a like sulphur. Huge stones were rolled to the en trance of the pit and pushed in, but no _body heard them strike. An engineer ~ing expert, who has visited several extinct craters, and whose knowledge of geology is not limited, says the character of the rock and everything r- about the place indicates that the tun nnel has encountered a section of the ycrater of a long extinct volcano. The ve point wvhere the opening was found is i- 1,300 feet from the north heading of the e-tunnel and 400 feet below the surface f of the mountain. A Sad story. md~ The child coughed.
