ELBERT IL AUJLL, EDITOIL ELBERT H. AULL, Proprietor WM.P. HOUSEAL, r NEWBERRY. S. C, THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 4, 1889. HON. GEORGE JOHNSTONE. The newly elected Congressman from the Third District is a native of New berry and has spent his life here. He is a son of the late Chancellor Job Johnstone aged about 43 years. He was several times a member of the lower branch of the General Assem bly of South Carolina and while there won honor for himself and was a credit tu his county and his State. He served on the most important committees in the House with conspicuous ability. As a member of theNational House of Representatives his 'friends have' a right to expect much of him and we feel sure they will not be disappointed. He goes there as the representative of no. faction or class but will watch with a vigilant eye the interests of all the people. The farmers' inbrest will be safe in his hands es well as the in terests of all others. He is a forcible and log:cal speaker, and will be able to cope with the most experienced in debate. Newberry is proud of her success in this election and is truly gratified for the help she received from the other counties in the Third DIstrict. Now let all hands go to wo:k and fight the common enemy if one should appear, and elect the choice of the Democrats as we will do. THE COXXOM SCHOOLS. The most important matter that will receive the attention of the coming Legislature will be some means to im prove the common schools of the State. 187 the parties who controlled t have not met the jusr the govert., )le. In fact the expectations of the 3one qted on ' cold shoulder has been turned to'e. effort in this direction. Institutions of high standard have been encouraged and lavishly supportcd while know' edge and opportunity have been d nied the ciildren of the State. The system now prevailing can be amended but even with. its faults much more could have -been made from it than has been done. The college at Columbia, top-heay;y with, professors, has never lacsed' for support and friends. It is a gaudy and costly affair. The contrast between it and the dilapidat -:d school houses of the eountry is painfu!. The little children are thirsting for knowledge. While the more favored receive all the ad vantages the University can give the country child is cut off from any cliance in life for want of opportunity to learn .ven the rudiments. :It is time for a change and when the *new. element gets control we have no doutta total change for the better will speedily be brought about.-AbbevlWe *ediuzm. We do need better common schools. The Herald and Hews has advocated for several years that if South Carolina bad-any more money to spend for edu eation it ought tobe givenl to the com mon schools. But now that the Agri cultural College has been established We have said before and say again that 'the- South Carolina College is too ex I ~pensive, but, we de not want to see it crippled or pulled down. We do not desire any institution of learning in South Carolina pulled down. Let us build them up but they should not be unnecessarily burdensome in the wvay of expenditures. But the Medium says the parties who have controled the government since 1576 have not met the expectations of the people. We thought the Demo cratic party had been in power during - these years. If not, what partie then does our cotemporary refer to? If it means the individual representatives, by the use of parties, we would like to ask if the editor of the Medium has not been one of these parties? If we are not mistaken he was for several years a member of the lowt branch of the Legislature, and for the past four years haes been the Senator from Abbeville County. What effort has he made during these years to improve the com mon schools of the State and what plan has he now to offer as an amendment. It seems to us that the great need is more money, and how this is to come without an.increase of taxation we are notinformed. Change is not always re form. If we are to have free public schools at all we would like to see a first- class one established in every com munity and kept open for ten months in the year with a good teacher at its head, but in order to accomplish this it will take money. We would like our cotemporary to indicate what reforms and changes the "new element" proposes to introduce in our schools. * The A bbeville Press and Banner says office for the recent primary election in that county. The Democratic State Convention will meet next Wednesday, September 10. Both Col. Hoyt and Col. Irby claim the right to cs!l it to order, as t'iey both claim to be State Chairman. That was an ugly afTair in the na tional Congress last week. Representa tives are not sent there to call one an other names and apply ugly ep)htiets and have tisticuffs during the session. Such men ought to be sent home. Speaker Reed should have censured Cannon. But then he is a Republican and he may have a peculiar license. Editor Thompson, of the Darlington News, has just returned from a trip to New York and Washington. He says there is a striking resemblance tetween Speaker Reed and Mr. D. A. G. Ouzts, traveling agent of the Charleston 'World, and late a candidate for the -Legislature from Edgefield County. Only Mr. Reed wears no vest and one of these sashes around the waist and presents more the appearance of a dude. They are having a lively campaign over in the Fourth District. Capt. Shell and Dr. Smith are making things "warm. A good compromise would be to leave both of them at home and select from the other caudidates a good man. The Baptists at Work in Newberry. A most delightful and profitable oc casion to those who attended was the union of the fourth sect ion of the Reedy River Association, held at First Baptist church, Newberry. The Reedy River Association is divided into four sections called unions. The fourth includes the eleven churches in Newberry County, having 822 members, holding property valucd at $16,350. Notwithstanding the excitement on acc,unt of the election, all the churches, save one, were represented. On Friday morning after organization the intro ductory sermoL -vas preached by Rev. B. F. Corley, for half a century a preacher of righteousness. His text was: "He that believeth on the Son hath eternal life." John 3: 36. In the afternoon the subject of Preparation for the service of God, as exemplified in Isaiah 6: 1-10 was discussed. Bro. J. S. Dominick opened the discussion. He dwelt on the fact that purity of heart and life was an indispensable qualification for a successful service. ev. W. J. Langston thought that every thing is beautiful in its place, that while the heavenly service must be delightful, the more important now is the earthly. He thought that the Christian worker ought to have, like Isaiah: I. A visiou of God, (1) His divine sovereignty; (2) His purity; (3) His power, and, II. A vision of him self. (1). His sinfulness; (3). His par don; (3). His cleansing. When one Ive coal touches his lip and he is par doned and cleansed, then he is pre ared to say: "Here am I, send me." Jthers spoke on this all important sub ject, and the impression made on some Df us was, how few are prepared to serve such a God as our Rock. The busine-Q man in his relation to the work of the Lord, his apparent in difference thereto, the cause of it, Pid the cure for it, was opened by Bro. T. Danielson, a very devout brother. His speech was listened to with great inter est, throughout, and abounded in good ommon sense. Among other happy hits he said, the business man had no time for the work of the Lord, "it re guired all his time to keep on top." One of the best speeches maue was that of Dr. James Mclutosh, on this subject. It wes brief, simple, direct and to the point. Some of us are find ing out, to our great delight, that this brother has more talents than one. The ability to unfold the truth is the talent he possesses in a marked degree. b e n hid in a napkin, but I saw t , az o*hpn at our mpt "~ the napkin' s.-.1b-tor or-oUt.i2tug and the Mlent appeared. On Friday evening Rev. W. 1. Lang ston preached in the BaptisL church. Saturday morning after uevotional ex ercis.~s, led by Rev. B. F. Corley, our mission in Cuba was considered. Bro. R. H. Griffith, D. D., from Greenville, was with us and opened the discussion. He not only opened the -subject, but went into it and never returned till he had deprived us of anything to say. He gave us a very interesting ac count of the origin and progress of the mission. Bro. J. S. West dwelt on the importance of sustaining'our impris oned brother Diaz by our prayers. Bro. R. H. Griffith added a-P. S. to his speech which amount-d to $6.85 for home missions, and Bro. W. J. Lang ston thanked God that we might know how our heavenly Father wAs conduct ing his work in the world,' and pro eeded to take- subscriptions for the home field. A dozen names was ad ded to the list. Church discipline as a field for moral heroism was discussed in a very ,prac tical and earnest way by Bro. J. a. P. Goggans.. He made it appear that the performance of duty in this way re quires much moral courage. Bro. T. )anielson longed for the day to come when church discipline would be a gin at the wrong end. We begin with the member now in open sin when we should have begun with him long be fore this. Our mission in Mexico was the sub ject for the afternoon. The fact was broj.ght out that nothing much of the history of our mission there is known to us. Sources of information are scarce in these parts. Bro. B. F. Corley gave us a most delightful address on the Christian's joy, its source and exercise as found in Isaiah, 12th chapter. He touched the joyful chords 6f our hearts and made them vibrata once more as he lingered with delight on the sources of our joy. The time set for the discussion of Higher Education was 8.30 p. mn. It seemed to man's eye to be an unpropi tious time, as the returns from the different election precincts had come in, and the fact made known that New berry's favorite had been elected. Not withstanding the noise and the dis tracting circumstances we had a most delightful sess'on. Bro. J. K. P. Gog gans spoke first, and made some very strong arguments in favor of higher education. He spokc of the rapid pro gress the colored people are making in education, and the inroads of Catholic ism, and urged the people to bestir themselves and do more for thed uca tion of our children. Bro. R. H. Grif fith, financial agent for Furman Uni veity, then gave us an admirable ad drs. He spoke of the wonderful pro gress we have made in mateial things, and especially at the South in recent years. Who shall have the salaried places in the mills and mines? Shall we send to England or the North and give these trained minds these places which belong by right to our boys, andI let them get the money and the place and power, and let our boys be bewers of wood and drawers of water, or shall we educate our young men and fit them for the p'aces? We ought to look at the subject from a higher standpoint, from a moral and religious one. The question is, who shall send in morals and religion? Shall the nihilist, the Catholic, or our people? We must dec ide this for the next generation. The State knows no hereafter. There is no ell no heaven for the State. It can't interfere in behalf of religion. Our de nominational institutions are inter ested in the-moral and religious train ing ofthe young men, and of all the denominations, the Baptists ought to be the most interested. 1. The public has the greater claim on us for we out - number any other denomination in the State. 2. We have more children-God bless us with children. 3. Self resDect demands we do more. We can't aC'ord to beg Wofford, or En kine, or any ther people to educate our children. 1. The principles we hold justify a sepa rate organization, demand it. We live or a principle, and that is individual responsibility. The individual must study the Bible and obey it for himself. We take God's word and lay it on the eart and conscience of every one, and say, read for yourself, act for your elf, others can't do this; for in child hood without his knowledge they are already committed to an organization. 'hey dare not do it for they would ave to ignore the church authority. [t would oe trampling their church au :hority under fo >t. He then spoke of :he necessity of an endowment and of he work Furman has done. A collec ion was taken amounting in all to l02.75. On Sunday morning, 11 a.mn., it the Baptist church, Rev. Rt. H. Grif ith preached and took collection for -tate missions amounting to $10.56, and then addressed the ladies with reference to their work for the Univer sity in refitting up the laboratory and uilding the Judson cottage. The la lies gave toward the payment of the alance on cottage $i5.50. Rev. WV. J. Langston preached at the Methodist burh and Rev. G. A. Wright at the Presbyterian. Thus ended the delight b1 meeting. Meet next time 5tly Sun lay in Novenber, and second church, ewberry. 1........... CHAILESTON's PROSPERITY. The Gratifying Showing for the Year of Carolina's Prosperity. CHARLESTON, S. C., Aug. 01.-The News and Courier's annual review o)f the trade and coninierce of Charleston during the past year will be published to-morrow. It contains a most grati fing showing of the conditions and prospects of the city. Business has :een prosperous in nearly all branches. The total trade amounted to $80,697,117, an increase on the business of the pre ceding year of,,3,966,293. The News and Courier will say: "Charleston is doing business at the old stand. Its business is growing in every direction, and the prospect for the future is brighter than it has been at any time since the close of the war. The opportunities for development are greater. The facilities for handling business are being steadily improved. The railroads are reacbing out into new territory, and ships are coming in from all parts of the world. "We are on the threshold of a new commercial era. The progress has been general and steady. New enter prises and new industries have been added to the city's busy life. The out look is most encouraging. With im proved facilities, with increasing popu lation, with all Charleston at woric and at work for Charleston, the future con tains no height of commercial supre macy which cau not be scaled, and pre sents no obsiacle which can not be overcome.'' CHARLESTON AND THE ALLIANCE. The City Interested in the Movement for Direct Shipments to Europe. [Special to Greenville News.] CHARLESTON, S. C., Sept. 1.-The Chamber of Commerce held its first fall meeting this afternoon. Among other business transacted was the dis cussion of the Alliance direct shipment scheme. President Tupper said he had ben in correspondence with ,wo Alli ance men, one in Georgia, with a view of having Charleston selected as the port for the establishment of the direct jine of steamers to Europe. The matter was referred to the Comimitte on For eign Commerce. The special rail road commission charged with the abolition of the Ashley Junction grievauce was urged to hurry up its report. The committee xx-o pointed last Sprinetho -- - force tha.4m opnf3oject being to be i,-.-&tUantic Coast Line to run all Lrains into Oharleston. THE AMERICAN COTTON CROP.

In obedience to the call of the State Executive Committee a county couvention will- be held at Greenwood, Friday, September 5th for the purpose of electing delegates to the State Convention. The Greenwood Republican club held a meeting to-day and elected ten delegates to the county club. This correspondent was informed that all the delegates save one are for Brayton. Lewis Walker, the colored inairman of the county,.club.- - An Opponent to Hemnphill. [Special to News and Courier.] CHERAW, August 28.-Capt. E. A. Pollock, of Cheraw, is out for Congrers from the 5th district. Capt. Polk. 3k is willing to answer all of tne questions put to him by the A1.liance in a manner satisfactory to them, and swallows the sub-treasury scheme whole. He intends to meet Mr. Hemphill on the stump, and the two will have a tilt to. niight in the town hall in Cheraw, as Mr. Hemp hill has come here to speak to the peo ple. I should not like to say which I think will get the better of the discus sion, but will leave that to the people, w.ao know the two men. CONGRESSMfAN TUT MAN TO BiE 01P POSED. AUGUSTA, Aug. 30.-It is i amored here that Congre. -man George D. Till man, over in Carolmna, will have opposi tion before the Democratic Convention for renomination. The trouble, it is said, has all grown out of his emphatic "no" in opposition to the sub-treasury bill, and it is understood that the Hon.1 W. J. Talbert, of Edgefield County, State lecturer of the Farmers' Alliance, will enter the race against Mr. Tillman. Capt. Ben Tillman, a brother of tbe Congressman, told me that Mr. Talbert was mistaken about his brother in say ing he would perjure himselfas a mem ber of the Farmers' Alliance if he op posed the sub-treasury bil-l. Capt Till man says the oath of the Allianee does not interfere with a man's political or religious opinions. If Talbert makes the fight Congress man Tillman had better come home and r'ngle among his constituents. The Three C's. The work on the main line of the Three C's Road seems to be getting along very well. The Railway Gazette of the 29th of August says: "The track laying on the contract of WV. Kenefick, of Kansas City, was completed August 20. This section extends from Johnson City, Ten n., south through UTnico Coun ty to the State line between Tennessee and North Carolina, a distance of about twenty miles. Every means was adopted to hasten the work between these points to complete it by August 20, in accordance with the agreement made with Unico County, by which the company was to receive $i50,000 of the county bonds. Tracklaying is in progress on the section north of John son City to Minneapolis, Va. ninety miles." A special from U,nion, S. C. to the News and Courier says: "Work on the Three C's is still progressing. Messrs. Orwood & Goforth have worked with ini the corporate limits on the south side of the town, but will remove their camp above town, as the route has not been definitely settled on." The Georgia, Carolina and Northern. The work on the Georgia, Carolina and Nortb~ern Road is progressing very rapidly. The tracklaying was finished last week to Cliuton, S. C., about ninety miles southwest of Monroe, N. C., the northern terminus. All the trestles be tween Whitmire's and Clinton have been finished and train servic3 will probably be extended 1mrm WVhitmire's to the latter p)oint by September 1. The track has also b-en lain from Green wood northerly towr.rds Clinton for a distance of about fifteen miles to a point near the Saluda River. The iron bridge across that river and across the other si reams north of the Savannah River are being erected. The grading has bcen finished as fa- as the Savain nah and the track w'll probably reach Abbeville next month. The distance from that point to the Savannah River is twenty-flve miles. Altogether about one thousand men are at work on the Presents to Kennedy Library. Hon. Silas Johnstone, of the New berry bar, has given a copy of his valu able "Digest of Equity Reoort~." This volume includes the wor.: of "Courts of Equity," from .185 to IS(;s, but there is added a "Dij,ested Index of all the reported cases decided in the Court of Equity from its inception (1816) to its termination (18(;8)." Its preparation was not only in payment of the "debt which every man owes to his prof' sion," but was also a labor of filial love, as the author's father was for many years a distinguished ornament of that court. Mr. Paul Johnstone, of Newberry, sends a copy of "The Electoral Ques tion Discussed by the late Paul John stone, published in 1856. When Congress passed a law that the "Electors" must be elected all over the United States on a given day in November, it became necessary for our State to decide whether to call an extra session of our Legislature to elect these Electors or to give the election to the people, as had been done in every other State. This little volume is a collection of articles which appeared in the Carolina 'liimes through several weeks. They attracted attention. though published anonymously, and their publication was called for by in telligent readers. These volumes mark historic stages in our legal and political history. The trustees are glad to add thei to the Carolina shelves in the library.-C. in Carolina Spartan. NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.

[Charlotte News.] Now they tell it on Senator Vance that lie has been guilty of wean'ng one of those dude silk welly wands, but that when he came down here to tell the Scotch-Irish how to farm, he dis carded his city garb and wore a suit that had neen keeping the Goambroon moths in provender for three years past. There must be some truth in rumor about the Senator and the Sash, for when Vance returned to Washington, the Star greeted him with this refrain: Now Senator Vance May take off his pants, And put on his sash with elation: He may dress. as he feels, For the loyal Tar Heels Have endorsed him by acclamation. The Alliance platform is not yet fully miade up, and at its next general meeting we expect to see a plank in serted demandinga tariff on silk sashes and "valler" shoes. The Oidest Man in Fairfield.
