ELBERT IL AL"LL, EDITo:.. ELBERT H. AULL, Proprietors. WM. P. HOUSE AL, NEWBERRY. S. C. THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1S91. A PLAN PROPOSED. A prominent merchant and banker of this county has suggested a plan that will probably be of benefit to the farmers of the South. It is wor'h thinking about, and will probably be brought to the attention of the State Alliance at its meeting at Spartauburg this week. He proposes that the cotton farmers of the South appoint a day some time about the first of August, and that every one of them on that day go in their fields and plow up every fourth row of cotton. This scheme will reduce the production one-fourth. That will be about two million and over bales of cotton. In the figures published in The Herald and News last week the surplus cotton esti mated on hand the first of September next is about two million bales. This plan is practicable, if taken hold of by the farmers throngh the alliance, for they are well organized, and it could be done in one day throughout the cot ton growing States in the South. Its effect on the speculators in Wall Street, that much abused place, would be greater than any legislation. They have already based their calculations on the present acreage. If in one day one-fourth of that was cut off it takes no argument and not much stretch of the imagination to guess the result. Their basis of calculation would be gone, cotton would then be reduced to the law of supply and demand, and it will beat reducing the acreage. The price would be - increased and there 4 ld, all things considered, be nc .jss to the farmer. To be effective, ...4' lowever, it would have to be done in concert and in one day, just as the railroads throughout the country were all changed to the standard gauge in one day. What do our farmers think of the scheme? The fifth of August will be a big time at Liitle Mountain. There is to be no politics in the meeting, and every body can attend. A PUBLIC DEBATE. 3. Wi. Stokes, President of the State Alliance, has challenged Senator M. C. Butler to a joint and public de bate of the Sub-treasury at Prosperity on next Wednesday, July 29, and Senator Bu:.; has accepted the chal lenge and Wiii meet President Stokes. There should be a large attendance of farmers, both members of the Alli ance and those who are not members. Let every body go and wit h the deter mination to hear this question dis cussed. Let both sides and both speakers be given a respectful and attentive hearing. If the sub-treasury scheme is a good thing and will be ,e ~~~~ enaeeitc and then let the law be passed. If it is not a good thing, and would not inure to the good of the people, why the people ought to know, and turn theji attention to something else. Both sides ought to be heard. The people ough1 to want to hear the scheme discussec intelligently. The opportunity will be given at Prosperity next Wednesday A subject of the magnitude of the plan proposed by the sub-treasury should have the freest and fullest dis cussion and it should be in such spiril to arrive at the truth. There pressing need in South Caroli na at this time for a statesman. A mar who has the ability, the manhood, the itriotismn, the unselfish devotion tc the State, and the honesty of purpose to throw himself into breath and poini out the right and lead the people. We are satisfied that the majority want t< do right, and will do the right if they can see it. They feel that there is something radically wrong, but just what has not yet been clearly defined. In their eagerness to right things, s large portion of our people unfortu nately have been led to extremes by s lot of demagogues who have taken ad vantage of the general unrest, and they are beginning to see it. Now for s statesman! In a Democratic government it is the right of a majority of the people to rule. A good definition of Democracy is the rule of the people or the government 01 the people. This is true. But this majority rule sho'uld be a majority 01 all the peopla and not the majority of t part of the people. Then, too, the mi nority has rights which should be exspected. The majority should not override these rights either. The joint public discussion of the sub-treasury scheme at Prosperity nex1 Wednesday will attract one of the largest assembled in Newberry County in quite a while. Persons all along the the road would be glad to go, and il the railroads would run excursion trains there would be a mass meeting in fact. The notice that an Alliance in Lau rens county has passed resolutions similar to the resolutions passed by the Liberty Hall Alliance, and which the Newberry county alliaL.ce asked to be rescinded as opposed to the "right o1 the majority to rule." It will be in order now for the Laurens County Alli ance to ask that these resolutions be rescinded as opposed to the "right ol the majority to rule." The Alliance procession is moving through Georgia and inculcating the third party idea. Congressman Wat son, who was elected as a Democrat, is out square for the third party. Gover nor Northen, though an Alliance man, has not been invited to any meeting we presume on account of his opposi tion to the Sub-treasury. Columbia has sold her canal. The Herald and News congratulates Colum bia on getting rid>of the caual, and we sincerely hope it will be developed as it ahuI4be,and get forever out of poli DEATH OF DR. 0. B. MAYE9, S. One of Newberry's best citizens has passed away. Dr. 0. B. Mayer, Sr., died at his iome in Newbery on Thurs day afternoon, July 16th, at half-past two o'clock, after an illness of nine days. Though his deap-p s not un expected, it, was a shock to the commu nity in which he had spent an honor able and useful life of nearly fifty years. Dr. Orlando Benedict Mayer was born near Pomaria, or. February 24, 1818, and spent the days of his boyhood at his birth.place, to which he so often refers in his writings with filial devo tion. As he grew into manhood's estate he attended school at Lexington, and sub sequently entered South Carolina Col lege, where he graduated in 1837. He then began the study of medicine and received the degree of M. D. from the Charleston Medical College. He prac ticed his profession for a year or two in Dutch Fork, and then resolved to at tend some of the best European Uni versities. On the 25th of April, 1844, he left his home at Pomaria and went to Charles ton, where he sailed for Liverpool. He spent three years in Europe, dividing his pursuit of learning between the Universities of Edinburg, Paris and Heidelberg. He returned to Pomaria in April, 1847, and after practicing his profession there for two years, he re moved to Newberry, where he has spent his useful life. Dr. Mayer was thrice married. In 1839 he married Miss Mary Davis, of Fairfield, who at the time was living in Mississippi. She did not live a year after her niarriage. In 1851 he married Miss Carrie DeWalt, of Newberry, who died in 1861, leaving one son and four daughters to a father's care. Later he married Mrs. Lou Kinard, who sur vives him. Dr. Mayer attained an eminent place in his profession, and was as well distin guished as a writer. He contributed largely to the periodical press in early life, which he kept up almost within a week of his death. His la,t work of this character was the revisal of the Dutch Fork sketches for The Herald and News. and on the day before he was taken with the disease,' which ended his life, he finished these sketches. He retired from the aetive practice of his profession several years ago. He performed many difficult surgical operations during his practice, being often called to distant counties. Dr. Mayer did not seek the applause of men, or he could have obtained a worldwide distinction in his profession. Neither di,i he seek wealth. Nothing delighted him more in his later years than his literary pursuits. He was pure-hearted, honest, overflowing with generosity and kindness. Dr. Maye~r was a thorough English schelar, and spoke and wrote the Ger man languaige. He was quite familiar with'*Fren~h, Latin and Greek. He devoted his attention.alao music and fine arts. He a translated many Gran nmns into English and ar -rnged appropriate music for them. His best work in fiction was "The Voice, the Hand and the Silhouette" and "The hMusic Girl of the Rue de La Harpe." These two stories appeared in Russell's Magazine, published in Charleston in 185>7. In the first of these he distinctly predicted the inven tion of the telephone. Dr. Mayer had been professor of Physiology and Hygiene in Newberry College since 1877, and also before its removal to WValhalla in 1868. Dr. $1aye r was a consistent member of the Luth.eran church. He was astu dent of the Bible, which he read with devoutness and in which he believed with a strong faith The grandeur of his character is most manifest in his religious life. No man of our acquaint ance possessed a more abiding faith in the promises of the gospel of Christ. With the faith of a little child, his con victions were strong and he relied fully on the doctrine of the resurrection and the happiness of the life to come, which was his solace and comfort in his last illness. Dr. Maye r leaves four children, Dr. . B. Mayer, Jr.; Mrs. Martin, of Lau rens; Mrs. Connor, of Cokesbury; and Mrs. J. T. :Mayes, of Newberry. One of his daughtess, Miss Alice Mayer, died in December 1834. His nobleness of character and hir many virtues truly entitle him to the high name of Christian gentleman. A Tribute' from a Class-Mate of '37. To the Editor of the Newberry Her ad and News: I was much shocked to-day at the announcement of the death of my old friend and class-mate, Dr. 0. B. Mayer, in the Charleston News and Courier. Our correspond ence had been but recently renewed. I saw in a stray copy of one of your papers a re-publication of one his ear lier contributions to the history of the ancient "Lutch Fork," and wrote to himi promnply, congratluating him on his retaining so much of his youthful spirit in composition, and requesting copies of any more he might yet pub lish. To this he replied in his usual whole-hearted sincerity, and the papers came regularly. He wrote of how much pleasure it gave him to see my familiai' hand-writing once more, and recalled many of our youthful experi ences with the warmth and fervor or "Auld lang syne." He mentioned that heket anuse.ript list of our class of J1 in the South Carolina College, and whenever he knew of the death of any member, he would run his pencil through the names and that very few were left unscathed. That he found more than one dot of his pencil oppo site my name, as if hesitating whether to draw the line or not. But it had es caed so far. urs was the first class enrolled under the re-organization with the Hon. Rl. W. Barnwell at the head of the college. We were graduated, some forty-two in number, and, from my cout, the survivors now can be count ed on the fingers of one hand. Sitting alphabetically in our class-rooms, three time- a day, ~and only sep)arated by our mutual friend, Jno. L. Manning, the three of us became very intimate. In Mayer's case, we could see, through some peculiarities, that sterling charac ter andl spotless integrity which distin guised him through his long life, and which boys are not slow in finding out and appreciating among their associ I was thrown but little with him in after life, but from what I saw for my self and learned from others whenever the opportunity to inquire was afforded me, I knew that "the boy was father Iof the man," and that in his quiet and unobtrusive way, he was serving his day and generation as a citizen anid neighbor good~n and useaful, an d that he had attained tht highest title known among men-that of tlic "Clritian gentleman." He was always proud of his State-the South Carolina of our day--and loved his native Newberry with filial devotion. The publications he had revised and revived but recent ly were intended to interest and in struct posterity. Even now based on traditions and reminiscences running back almost to colonial times they have the charm of antiquity. But "In far oirsunners we ne'er shall see" how much more will they be prized by a remote posterity. He wrote me that he intended to col lect them in permanent book form, and I real:y hope his fellow-citizens of such long standing will see to it that his purpose is carried out. For more than fifty years-half a century of profes sional life-he has walked the streets of his much-loved town, a living epistle known and read of by all men, and now that his voice is silent, his genial nature should yet survive in his writ ings, permanently preserved. J. A. LLAyND. iff. Pleasant, S. C. July 1ith, l 9i. THE LITTLE GIANT. Annual Meeting of the Stockholders of the Columbia, Newberry and Laurens Rai! road. [The State, 22ud.] The annual meeting of the stock holders of the Columbia, Newberry and Laurens Railroad was held yesterday morning in the office of the President of the Commercial Bank. After the transaction of the rountine business the following board of direc tois was elected : H. C. Moseley. Geo. S. Mower, M. A. Carlisle, Jas. Wood row, W. A. Clark, W. H. Lyles, Johii T. Sloan, Jr., W. B. Lowrance and G. Leaphart. After the meeting of the stockholders there was held a meeting of the newly elected board of directors, at which the following officers were elected : Pres ident, W. G. Childs; vice-President, H. C. Moseley ; attorney, M. A. Carlisle ; secretary and treasurer, T. H. Gibbes. President Childs said to a representa tive of the State that the road having been leased to the South Carolina Rail way, there was no annual report of the earnings. The annual reports shows, however, that the road has been able to pay the interest on the first mort gage bonds by the rental from the South Carolina Railway. The business of the road has been exceedingly gratifying and very satisfactory to the lessee. The condition of the road has been found, after an inspection by Receiver Chamberlain, to be physically far be yond their expectations. THROUGH TO ATHENS. The First Train on the G. C. & N. Rolls into the Classic Ciiy. [Special to Augusta Chronicle.] The first passenger train over the Georgia, Carolina and Northern rail road arrived to-day.

Myer, general superin tendent, and Capt. Whistman, superin tendent, of the Georgia, Carolina and Northern railroad, and Major Winder and Gen. Hoke, of the Georgia, Caro lina and Northern.

CHARLESTON, S. C., July 38.-Hon. Samuel Y. Tupper, ex-president of the Charleston Chamnber of Comnmerce, (lied this morning, after a protracted and painful illness. The farmers ought to learn one thing, and they will before long. It is this, that those who do not agree to all the demands of the alliance as contained in the Ocala platform are not enemies of the farmers. The sooner this is understood the better it will be for all concerned. Newberry sent quite a delegation of teachers to Anderson counlty. Those who wvent yesterday were School com missioner Ki bler, Mrs. Maggie Tarrant, Misses Laura Blease, Fannie Bax:ter, Janie Chalmers, Mallie W heeler anu Maie Clary. POWERtS OF MUINICIPAL COURTS. A New and Interesting Question llefore Judge Kershaw. The case before the town council, to which reference was mlade in The Herald and News last week bas taken a new turn. James F. Cour sev was lined 3125 in two cases, for violating a town ordinance, or impris onment thirty days in each case. He declined to pay the fine, and wvas put is custody. In the meantime his at tornevs served notice of app)eal, and oflered to give bait for the atppearane of Coursey. The council refused to accept bond, except the payment of the fine, pending an appeal. The case was brought before Judge Kershaw last Friday by lhcas corpwm. The question to be decided was whiethe': the right of appeal from the judgment of the town council was allowed under law. If it wa:s, the dlefendanlt was en titled to bail. Judge Kersnaw decided that defend ant was entitled to bail. In dloing so he said: "This decision is made upon the round that an appeal does lie from a jugment from the town counIcil of Newberry, and that the party is en titled to bail pending such appeal." The case will go to the Supreme Court for final jurisdiction. Next week the corner stone of Clem son College is to be laid with imposing ceremonies and several professors are to he elected.

McIntosh has had three fever patients in the village-two of them quite ill, and one-a child whose life for days was almost des paired of, but he has brought thent all through. His devotion was beautiful. The child must have died but for the careful, vigilant nursing he gave in ad dition to his medical attention. A bull dog, said to be mad, was shot Monday. It belonged to Mr. Lane. Master James Bowers killed a snake the other day that fell apart. It was the "glass" or jointed snake. SANs Sot'(I. NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR. Our school continues to improve, and yet there are more pupils to tollow. We had a lovely rain on Saturday and Sunday, and crops are now boom ing. Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Long, of John ston section, paid us a pleasant visit on Saturday. A few of our farmers went to the river again last week to get another mess of lish. Mr. F. H. D. Kinard, of Williamstoin, has been spending a few days in our neighborhood on business. The rain on Sunday afternoon inter fered somewhat with the hour of ser vice at the academy. Services were conducted, however, after the rain and a very good number were present. Prof. J. S. Wheeler wife and little son spent Friday night in St. Luke's community, the guest of Prof. H. H. Rikard's famnily. We now have watermelons until we can't rest. Comie dowvn, Mr. Editor, and help us eat, and we will give you a large one to carry home.

It is their intention to put up a newv engine and ginning outtit, and when completed will add no little to the attractions of "String town." A certain widower from the other side of the county who visits "friends" in this community occasionally must be very absent-minded at times as he drove all the way to Newberry a few days ago with the wheels of his buggy "inverted," so to speak--the front weels behind and vice versa, and had to have'his attention called to it before he was aware of the fact. He had been the victiin of a practical joker. B. & L. Catsrrh originates in scrofulous tain t. P. P. P. purifies the blood, and thus peranently cures Catarrh.
