-ELBERT H. AULL, EiMh. ELBERT H. AULL, Proprietors. WM. P. HOUSEAL, NEWBERRY. S. C. THURSDAY, APRIL 2, 1Sf1. A THRILLING STORY. As announced two weeks ago, The Herald and News begins this week the publication of a thrilling and interest ing story of love, poetry and prose by Dr. 0. B. Mayer, Sr. Apart from the interest and pathos of the story itself, it is descriptive of the Dutch Fork and the people of that famed section half a century ago. The habits and the cus toms peculiar to these people in that time have passed away and can and will only live by being preserved in writings such as this story. The Herald and News knows of no one better fitted to write of the Dutch Fork than Dr. Mayer. We have published a few extra copies this week. If you want to read this interesting story you had better sub scribe for The Herald and News at once and not depend on borrowing your neighbor's copy. This story will run through three weeks. When it is finished several of Dr Mayer's other stories will be pub lished. They are being rewritten ex pressly for The Herald and News and we are sure will be read with interest. THE COLLEGE FOR WOMEN. The Herald and News publishes else where this week the circular letter issued by the Commission appointed by Gov. Tillman to collect information and report on the establishment of an Irdustrial College for Women. The school will be established and -ill be supported by the State. The place has not yet been 'ec-ided upon. That is oLe of the purposes of the Com 7 mission. This school will be of great benefit to the town and community in which it is established. Whatever town or community that secures it will be ex pected to give pecuniary aid towards its establishment in the shape of money for buildings and a site upoLT which to build. Now the question with The Herald - - - and News is why should not Newberry maFeefforts to secure this prize. This question we submit to our citizens and business men and would be pleased to have expressions of opinion from them on the subject. A town no larger than Newberry secured a similar institution that was recently established in Georgia, when cities like Atlanta were competing for it. It would be worth more to New berry in the end than it would cost to secure it in the beginning. It is worth considering, and worth considering well, before casting aside the question lightly. All bids mnrt be in by the first of July. That gives us just three months to do something or nothing. New berry is centrally located, with fine climate and healthy, and with superior railroad advantages. All these ad vantages we have, but it will take more to secure this college. We wil have to give material aid in the man ner above mentioned or some of our more enterprising sister towns will secure the college. PLAST cORN. -The agricultural editor of the Au gsChronicle advises the farmers to1 plant corn and plenty of it. The Her aId and News is of the opinion that'the advice is sound, and it would be well to heed it. Corn is about as high if not higher than it has been in ten - years, and there is not much prospect of its getting much lower. Cotton is I selling for less than it has in forty years and we do not see much prospect *of its getting any higher. - t There has been so much rain already I this spring that it is hardly probable that we will have any freshets this ~ summer in the bottoms, and it might c prove a good scheme to put in a good v crop of corn. It will not take so much t work to make it, and certainly the farmer cannot afford to make cotton a *at 7 cents a pound and buy corn at one t) dollar a bushel. The Chronicle says: a "A writer in the Southern Alliance Farmer announced last week that the c Alliance was going into politics. Sup- t< pose it goes into the corn field. 'lhis is the place to get the money back. If the farmer is oppressed a corner in the t corn field will make a better combine ., than any political co.iclave. Here are t clean furrows and equal rights to all- 0 special privileges to none. Tne corn g tassel is a better decoration than that b of the secret lodge. A hundred ac 'es I in corn is a better possession than the presidency of the Alliance." ' a THE LIBRARY sOCIETY. u A correspondent furnishes some in-a teresting facts and figures on the ques- al tion of public libraries in other States. p The Herald and News feels sure that enough persons will be interested in the matter in Newberry to mdake a start, though it be a small one. We A must not despise the day of small tiings. The library society must and will be organized, if there are only a dozen to begin with, and only as many e books. tU Once organized it will give people, ' C who are so disposed, 2'e opportunity ~ to contribute small gifts r large ones h: fr that matter. in the shape of books te 'r money. If it were not organizedl they would not have this privilege. in A meetiug will be held the latter fr part of next week, the time and place C< of which due notice will be given, and P the beginning made. ti It is hoped that enough interest will of be felt in this matter to assure a good 31 attendance. But large orsnmall the or- C gnization will be effected. t Col. Keitt's article on the third party of question is published this week. It would have been published two weeks ~ go but we did not think that Col. Keitt was really serious in the matter st< himself, but inasmuch as he requested s it in his article last week, and The h: Herald ar.d News commented on it, we .tri publish it to let those see his argument fe who possibly have not before had the p opportunity. The Herald and News fe POLITICS IN THE ALLIANCE. The Herald and News publishes this week the resolutions of the Mt. Pleas ant Alliance on the question of the Alliance engaging in the business of banking and politics. It occurs to us that the Mt. Pleasant Alliance in on the right track. The Alliance is a good order, and in many ways can, and will, be of great benefit to the farmers, but if it does not keep clear of politics as an or ganization and politicians it will surely split upon this rock. It has always been a strange thing to us that the farmers could and would allow them selves to be so easily taken in by politi cians, who had no use for them or their organization, except so far as they could use both for their own promotion and aggrandizement. Many persons claim to be great friends of the Alliance, and join the order to use it to put them selves in good positions. The farmers as well as o'her citizens should take an active interest in public questions, and it Is right and proper for them to seek and obtain office, but if the Alliance does not 1;nload itself of demagogues and politicians, who are using the order for all it is worth, the organization will fail of the purpose for which it was founded. The Mt. Pleasant Alliance is right. If the Alliance employs men to attend to its business and pays them for it, they should let politics, in the shape of oice seeking and holding political office, severely alone. That is the opinion of The Herald and News, although the editor is not a member of the Alliance, and possibly has no right to speak, and does not pretend to speak officially, for that order. It is c uly, as we take it, for the good of the order that we speak at all. The solons of the Arkansas Legisla ture are striking at the roots of things. Last week they passed a resolution to put Jefferson Davis' picture where Washington's portrait has hung for twenty-five years. The House also passed a resolution favoring the elec tion,of President, Vice-President and United States Senators by a popular vote, and their latest sensation is a resolution passed in the Senate pro hibiting a mortgage being given on a rop planted or yet to be planted. rhey seem to think there is something wrong somewhere, and they'll just keep on striking until they hit it. The "Ink Slinger" of New York :ity is dead. His name was John onnors, and he died in prison while erving out a sentence for slinging blue nk on the silk dresses of ladies while :hey were walking on the streets. During his trial the table in front of he judge was piled high with costly ilk dresses he had ruined. Historian Charles C. Jones, Jr., furn shes the Augusta Chronicle a list of :he surviving general officers of the onfederate armies. There are two generals, nine lieutenant-generals, :hirty-one major-generals and one undred and fifty brigadier-generals. Rev. Dr. Howard Crosby, an eminent Presbyterian minister of New York, lied at his home in that city on Sun ay last. He was famous as a preacher, scholar and public spirited citizen and will be greatly missed in New York. Ee was also the founder of the Y. M. . A. in the United States. The Italian Minister to the United itates has been recalled, because King umbert is not satislied with the pro ~ress of negotiations in the matter of he New Orleans lynching. The action is said not to mean hostil ty to the United States, but indicates certain degree of discontent. The Public Library. To The Editor of the Herald and Cews: As the question of a puh ibrary for Newberry is now being ag ated, the following account of public ibraries in the State of Massachusetts, nay be of interest. It is taken from be annual report of the State Board of lducation and was prepared by acting tate Librarian Tillingport. From this eport it appears that in 1839 there ere from ten to fifteen town libraries ontaining together only 3,000 to 4,000 olumes, to which the citizens of these owns had the right of access; the aggre ate number of volumes in the public braries, of all kinds, in the State was bout 300,000, to which but little more ban 100,000, or one-seventh of the pop lation, had any right of access. 'There re now 17.5 towns and cities having -ee public libraries under municipal ontrol and :24S of the 3q51 cities and wns contain libraries in which the eople have rights or free privileges. here are about 2,.500,000) volumes in ese libraries, available for the use of 104,24, of the 2,228, 943 inhabitants of 2e State by the last census. The gifts f individuals in money, not including ifts of books for libraries and library sildings, exceed $.5,500,000. There are )3 towns (townships) in the State -ith a popu'ation of only 134,719 which o not have public libraries. But these re only small towns, with slender val ation. I call attention to these in ~resing facts, hoping they may serve an incentive to our peoplein making least a small beginning in so ima ortant a matter. X COOSAW COMPANY MOVES AGAIN. Petition Filed to Carry the State's Last Action Into the United states Court. [The State, 1st.] The opposing forces on the Coosaw iess board are in motion agaiu, and ie last move of the State is now to be Let with another from the Coosaw ompany. As a result, the receivership atter is likely to be taken from the :nds of the State Court and transferred the United States Circuit Court. Attorney General Pope, when seen st night, stated that he had received formation-not, however, obtained omu any papers-that Coosaw Mining :mpany had filed in Charleston a tition, which was accompanied by a d, to cause the removal of the ac m recently commenced by the State South Carolina against the Coosaw inig Company to the United States rcuit Court for South Carolina for jal- t This action on the part of Coosaw - ill ereate some surprise in this section the State, although many have ex -ted that the company would make ie counter move to that recently adle at Aiken by the State. The Attorney Ueneral says that this ap was not unexpected by the State prsentatives, and he smilingly as red the reporter that "the State's case s strength enough to win in any bunal to which it may be assigned r tria!." It may be assumed frorni this that the tosphate commission either does not ir the latest move of the Coosaw, or so does not caraen ohow it THE COLLEGE FOR GIRLS. The Commisbioners Invite Bidg-Would Newbe7y'Likc to Have this School? At the adjournment of the meeting of the commissioners to report on a place for the industrial college for women, which was held about ten days ago, it was announced that the commi ssion would issue a circular letter. This cir cu!ar has - been prepared and will be printed in all the newspapers in the State and copies be sent to the city and town authorities. The following is the circular: STATE INDUSTRIAL COLLEGE FOR WOMEN. Concurrent resolutions of the Senate and House of Representatives of South Carolina: ' Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring, That the Governor be, and is hereby authorized and empowered to appoint three commissioners whose duty it shall be: First. To investigate and report what are therequirements for ao Industrial School for Women and what would be the probable annual cost of its nain0 tenance. Second. What inducements in the way of grounds, buildings, moneys or other securities may be offered by per sons or places in this State to secure its location, and to make recomrnmeuda tions thereon, after visiting the same, if necessar,'. Third. rhat said commissioners make their report to the Governor as soon as practicable, and that their expenses in curred in executing the commission be paid out of the Governor's contingent fund: Provided, the same does not ex ceed three hundred dollars. The undersigned, commissioners ap pointed by the Governor under the foregoing resolutions, beg leave to call attention to the importance of the ob ject proposed and to invite co-opera tion. It is unnecessary to speak of the need, or of the value to the State, of such provision in aid of the education of women. Rewvgnizing the benefits which such an institution would confer upon the community in which it might be erected. the Legislature through us appeals to the cities and towns of the State to submit offers for its location. The presence of a State school of this character, with a large faculty and probably several hundred youn- ladies from all parts of the State, wou: at once make its site a centre of education, intelligence and. social at traction. Its influence would directly elevate and assist the local schools, and there would follow an increase of pop ulation, with an enhancement of val ues, not easily to be overestimated. We invite the attention of the mu nicipal authoities and people of our cit ies and towns to these considerations. The competition-wbich is for general as well as local benefit-is open to all. Correspondence is freely invited. A member of the comm:ssion will come to any part of the State for conference, if deemed necessary. All offers must be definitely sub mitted by Ist of July. Meanwhile similar schools abroad will be thor oughly inspected in order to secure the advantages of the best experiences. Afterwards all sites or nroperties of fered will be carefully exa.ained by the commissiou, and in its report full jus tice will be done all. Early attention will promote the ob jects of the commission. D. B. JOHNSON, MA RY L. YEARGIN, -HANNAH HEMP'HILL, Comimissioners. Address: D. B~. Johnson, chairman, Columbia, S. C. TEACHERS' COLUMN. The State Superintendent of Ed aca tion has issued the following letter: "I have called a meeting of toe State Board of Examiners for Friday the third day of April, 1891, at 9 o'clock a. m. It is important that this meeting should be held before the County Ex ainations take pla.ce I desire to have each County School Commissioner of the State in attendance on that meet ng. "Many things of much interest bear ing on public education in the State will come up for discussion, and I re uest your presence and the benefit of your experience and counsel. "The following will give you some dea of what will be brought before hat meeting. The manner of holding xaminations, the character of the uestions to be submitted, rules for crit icising examintion papers, &c: The eachers Associations, the work to be rought before them, have up an inter est in them, &c. The division of the State into listricts of several counties each for the purpose of Institute work this summ3r, the advisability of adapt ing a course of study for teachers in ine with a regular prescribed course of nstitutes, the importance of redistrict ing the counties into smaller and more onvenient school districts and the ubject of special school tax levy under the Act of 1888' "It will give me much pleasure to have as many members of tbe County oards of Examiners attend this meet ing as can do so, and they are hereby ordially invited." "I also invite teachers ot your coun ty to attend, as can come. Their ad vices will be of much value. Will you indly extend the invitation to them for me and oblige? "D. D. MA YFIELD, "State Supt. Education." The meeting in Columbia will be in teresting and profitable, I have never known a meeting of a similar nature o be called, and hope that this one will be well attended. The subjects to e discussed are of vital importance to our common school system. Th le one f most iniportance is the school dis It would be well if Newberry C;oun ty culd have several representatives at he meeting. We can go down and ome back the same day, and the ex pense would not be so great. Teachers, consider the matter and determine to go. The citizens of some portions of the ounty are becoming interested in the matter of smaller school districts. On last Friday the County Board received1 petition from citizens of Prosperity4 .sking for a special district with Pros perity as the centre. The board agreed o establish a district t wo miles square, nd this will be large enough, inas iuch as Prosperity is a considerable own. This size district will doubt Less be acceptable to the petitioners. There are other commutities agi ating the question, and will not stop intil they shall have formed them ieves into districts of convenient size The County Board is willing to es biish districts in any community. ben it is for general good, and when tdoes not injure another community Let us bear in mind that forming nmaller districts does not necessarily iean an extra tax. That question is eft to the taxpayers, and to them The State Superintendent of Edun .tion has changed the day for holding i he Teachers' Examination from the' at to the 4th Friday in April. Teach-! rs should take note of this and not ome to New berry on the 1st Friday. Notice will be given in all the coun-j y papers two weeks before the exam nation. The next Teacher' Association willF e held at New berry on the !nd Satur- - Lay in April. The programme for the neeting was published in last week's iapers. We hope that every teacher nthe county will be present.. All' ome and take part in the discussions. Miss Gussie Kibler is now numbered e, with the teachers of Newberry County, and is teaching the Spring Ridge ,chool in No. 7 township. The examinations held at the G raded Schools ou last Wednesday and Thurs day were very creditable, to both teachers and pupiis. I have never seen better papers prepared by pupils than I saw on last Thursday. The superintendent intfornied ie that he holds an examination in all the grades at the end of every second iiuoilth. The (raded Schools have already done a great deal for Newberry, and have only begun the good work. If i of 6 he 3, what is 4 of 20 ? Some teacher will answer. NOTES FROM EXCELSIO'. Easter dawned upon us as a bright, lovely day and our people all attended divine worship. Our school observed Good Friday. Mrs. (ritlin, of this community, is very ill. Some few of our farmers have com menced planting corn. Mr. Samuel Werts Jr.. of Saluda, spent Friday night in this neighbor hood. Small grain here conlinues to-!ook flourishing. Some of our oldest farm ers report the wheat crops as being better than for several years past. The fruit crop is reported to be all right up to the present. Prof. J S. Wheeler and family spent the Easter season with her father's family, Mr. A. H. Miller, of Mt. Pil grim section. Mr. Janies ). Kinard, of Newberry College, accompanied by two of his fel low-students, Messrs. G. W. I. Load holt and G. D. Varn, spent the Easter season uder the paternal roof here. SIGMA. The A. R. P. Conference. The Conference of the A. R. P. Churches of Newberry County con vened at King's Creek church on Sat urday, March 28th, 1891. Notwith standing the bad roads there was a pretty fair turn out ou Saturday. All of the churches were represented ex cept the Prosperity Church. Dr. E. C. Jones, the President was present, and presided. The Dr. makes an excellent presiding officer, Mr. S. E. Brown the secretary being absent, C. F. Boyd was requested to act. The different subjects on the pro gramume, were fully discused by dif ferent members of the conference, all present seemed to enjoy the discussion ; two subjects were discussed before din ner and two after. The delegates were not disappointed in the expectation of being handsomely entertained by the good people of this histori:: church. The writer had so many pressihg in vltations to spend Saturday night un til he somewhat regretted he could not divide up a little, but it was his pleas ure to spend the night with his es teemed friend, Mr. A. J. Gibson and his interesting family. Sabbath morning dawned clear, and there was a good contregation in at tendance. Prayer meeting at 10 o'clock was conducte,i, in the absence of Geo. S. Mower, Esq., by C. F. Boyd. Rev. E. P. -McClintock preached two most excellent sermons which were listened to attentively by the congregation, Mr. 'IcClintock is at home among these people, having served them ac eptably as pastor for a number of years. In visiting King's Creek church now there are two familliar faces we reatly miss, MIr. Joseph Caldwell ad Col John S. Renwick. These two men were pillars in that church and are g.reatly missed. This conference was as pleasant a meeting as we ever attended. The onference adjourned to mieet at Pros perity church on Saturday before the ifth Sabbath of May. A BLANKET OF SNOW. WINCHESTER, Va., March 28.-The sow storm still continues here. It has een falling fast for thirty-eight hours ad has reached a depth of over two feet, and in some places nearly three feet. The country roads are impassable. t is the severest storm for thirty ears. HEAVY SNow STOR:..s IN MfARYLAND. CUiBERLAND, Md.. March 27. oday sa': the heaviest snow fall of t1ie season. It has bteen falling for twenty four hcours, and still continues unabat ed. Thus far nine inches have fallen. letric light and telegraph wires are own all over the city, and travel by railroad is greaitly impeded. THE SCHIsM HEALED. Diocesan Delegates Elected by Charleston Churches. [Special to The Register.] CHiA RLESTON, March :30.-Tbhe con gregations of St. Michael's and St. aul's churches to-day elected dele gates to the Diocesan Convention. As they were the only churches that re ained unrepresented in the conven tion after the settlement of the calor question, the election of delegates is re garded as a final healing of the schism ~vhich hars prevailed in the diocese for the past four or five years. The trouble rose from the placing of the name of negro clergyman on the convention oll of elerical deputies, which action causedl quite a number of p)arishea to tecede.
