Why thh great effort to divert the minds of the people from the merits of the discussion and endeavor thus to prejudice them against General Butler? Why this personal attack upon Senator Butler? Is this point the only flaw that can be found in the argument of Senator Butler? Why quibble over words when every sensible man knows that Senator Butler never said and never intended to say that 40,000 farmers in this State are thieves and scoundrels?. To a man on the fence it looks very much like an admission that Senator Butler got the best of the Prosperity discussion. There is no use to mince words about it. Dr. Stokes is not a match for Senator Butler in joint pub lie discussion. He is a very clever man and we like him personally very much, but we do dislike very much to see such perversion made .of what a man as has been done ir. this ease arld of iniuring a faithful public servant and to make the people lose confidence in him. MR. SLIGH AT SAUDIS. We publish elsewhere this week a report of the speech of -Mr. Siigh at Sardis, in Laurens 'ounty, a short time ngo. It is on the same line with the arguments of other advocates of the sub-treasnry plan. It would seem from the report of the speech that the Newberry editors accomplished at least one thing. They have beeni enabled to furnish amuse ment for Mr. Sligh. We have not heard or read of a speech delivered on Mr. Sligh's side of the question in some time that there is not some fling at the editors. If there is one class of people that receive less and expect less and get more voluntary abuse than the editors, we would like to know who they are. MIr. Sligh says the Newberry edlitors "always cry out against a man when the farmers put him up." And- the reason he assigns is that these editors want "to boss the job themselves. They want the high places and the fat .of the land." As far as this editor is concerned, Mr. Sligh's premise is not borne out by the facts and his conclusion is far from the truth. We have never undertaken to boss any job nor have we opposed any man because the farmers put him up But. as a true journalist we have endeavored to expresseur views of pub lic men and public measures in a fair' and straight-forward way, and this we have done without regard to whether it was popular or unpopular, as we con ceived it to be our duty, and we have always granted the same privilege to any~ other citizen. Some of the time latterly we have not agreed with 3Mr. Sligh on some things and that may be the cause of 31r. Sligh's amuse ment. When the people in their sove reign capacity decide these public questions and upon these public men, we always submit gracefully to that decision. We would like for MIr. Sligh to point out when and where these Newberry editors have ever tried to get the "high places and the fat of the land" for their labor. We do not believe any editor, while such, in Newberry County has ever asked for office at the hands of the people. Certainly neither of the now Newberry editors has ever asked for or received any "Ligh place" or office of any kind. This editor has the con sciousness of hxaving done his duty as he conceived it ns editor, without fear or favor, and that he intends to con tinue to do. 'We try to be fair; we try to be just. We may make mistakes. No doubt we have. It is nice to have the p)opular approval. but the man who rides on the p)opular wave and followsi the current for popularity's sake will strike the rocks ir the end, for popular 'applause is very uncertain. MIr. Sligh should be more specitie. He should not 1.e carried so Lar awayI with his amusenent at the Newberry editors us to draw conclusionie that do them injustice. We would like to direct MIr. Sligh's attention to the wvords of the preacher at his church last t Sunday and ask tnat before he under t ike to condemn in general, he put his words through the seive as sug gested in the sermon, "Is it just ? Is it1 necessary 7 Is it kind 2' The ('ottoni Plant has not vet told us whether Dr. Stokes really believes the argument or statement made by him in his Greenwo~od spech, to the eff'ect that there was no possible chance for the government to lose any money even if it did not reecive but $-40 for $60 advanced on cotton, because the other. $-4' was in circulati 'n. And thent what about the other dothat the farmer could have received when the' eot ton I was pliaced in the w arehouse. For sonue cause, we presume there isc a cause, we do not any longer receive the Charleston W\orld on our exchange list. The Herald and News likes to be on speaking terms with all its cotem- r poraries, and still we suppose we can manage to get along without the - World, but just how the World is to 1 manage without the Herald and Newvs, b we have not been able yet, exactly to 5 see. Still we wish it luck. je THE N-E It--LOLT IN THE ALLIANCE. u ) DeterininAtin of the cnrvell- r u at St. Louis to Resist the At- INce tempt to Control the Individ ual Opinion of Men bers in Matters Se 11ou1tical. worn Bla LoUis, September 16.-The Farri id Laborers' Convention reas led this morning at 10 o'clock. first order of business was the tion on the resolutions which were I esterday auO '.hey were carried by Parl Ad majority. I effort to make the vote unali- inch s revealed only two negative voters did not relish therf< circe.-Cot ug M.h Will the Cotton Plant tell us in a short, clear, succinct and plain state ment of just how the sub-treasury is to be a benefit to the far.- r. We have nevL, been able to see huxw the scheme would benefit the farmer. A good many of the farmers of New berry have stored their cotton in Alliance ware houses and by so doing, have lost from six to ten dollars a bale, exclusive of the cost of storage. If the Cotton Plant will favor The Herald and News with such answer to our inquiry as in dicated we will be greatly obliged. Don't give us any 'glittering generali ties,' but deal in plain language. It is incumbent on those who press this measure to show affirma ively where it will benefit the people and also that it is constitutional. The burden of proof is on the advocates of the ineas ure. It is no argument at all to say to those who do not advocate the measure that they are obtuse, or narrow or per verse." Now if the Cotton Plant has ever an swered the inquiry and given the state ment desired we hav.ritsi' to see it. The n ews has been want n mformation and we made the in quiry in good faith. We do not pre atend to any gret amount of learning on the financial questions that are being discussed and hence we went to the (otton Plant for a plain and simple .:tatement of how this measure was to benefit the farmer in its practical oper ations. For answer to that we have been waiting. Certainly the people of this country are not going to take abuse for argu ment. The editors and newspapers and men who are being abused as ene mies to the farmers are about as ptri otic and unselfish, to say the least, as their maligners. Surely it is not sup posed that a great economic question can be settled by abusing those who question its wisdom. Surely we have not come to that state of affairs in this State when a man or a newspaper can not question the wisdom of a measure that aftects the whole people without being howled down by every cross roads stump speaker as aii enemy to the farmer and a tool of the monopc list. The Herald and News is willing and ready and anxious to advocate any measure that will benefit the farmers and the matter of class legislation does not stand in the way. But the ques with us is, wvill it benefit the farmer. The trouble is, however, that nearly all these big orators are hunting soft places for themselves and they have taken advantage of circumstances and are trying to ride into office by abus ing other people because they think it is popular. If the plan has merit let it be pressed for adloption on it s merits and the peo pie wil. se themi. Who will be supervisor of registra tion for Newberry County ? 3Mr. Sligh says the Newberry editors want to run the machine. There is one thing'.the farmers ough t to learn. Every man or newspaper that criticizes and does not agree to every proposition proposed by some of the so-called leaders, is not an enemy to the farmer n,r to the Alliance. The controversy between Dr. Stokes1 and Senator Butler is getting very lively and interesting, but we do notI ee any argument for or against the sub-treasury in any of this controversy and no good to conie of it. It is nar rowed down now to a personal ques ion between Dr. Stokes and Senator B~utler It is a pity about President Harrison t mnd M1r. Blaine. Both seem to want r : run for president. MIr. Harri on really seerns worried about it and SIr. Blaine is still in bad health, but ct too sick to annoy MIr. Harrison. * We are glad to see that our local co :emporary is now in favor of a cannery 'r Newberry.

It is a great ity that public men cannot discuss ublic questions without fighting and uarrelling. But apparently there is ery little farbearance or tolerance of ifference of opinion. In 3Mississippi, MfcAllister, late presi lent of the State Alliance, and Mfa :une, editor of the National Economist, iave gotten to blows and from the re >orts it would seemt that Dr. Mfacune vas pretty badly used up. In Northb aoina a fight between President ~ok, of the National Alliance, and lessrs. Ashe & Jarnigan, of the .aleigh paper, seems imminent. In eorgia Gov. Northen and President ivinlgston, of the State Alliance, are aging warfare against each other. All these good Alliance brothers are ighting eachl other for opinion's sake. )ifference of views on the sub-treasury as been the "bone of contention" in tear'ly every case. Well it is a big question, but might I annot make right, and it c nnot roperly be settled by muscle, and now bat tile Alliance is waging an inter *eine war on the question we do not xpect that muchl good wi come of be schene excep)t its failure.

This sulbject being of great importance was thoroughly uli,eused with tihe fact th:t to begin right is a great stride to wards suess; anl that to begin right it is necessary to be systematie; and to attain this end the cbildren should be forned, marcled in, and seated by sig nals. That classes should be called up and dismissed in like manner. The second ques,tion, "Questions. being now in order was taken up by Mr. Morri.oi who sugges ed that in a recitation of thirty ninutes, ten nm- I utes be given to preliminary questions, that is to a review of preceding lessons and to facts leading up to the lesson of the day, then lifteen minutes to stiniu- i lative or instructive questions that bear on the day's lesson, and five minutes to examination (Iti"Lions, such questions as will indi,:te to the teacher the eli ciency of his %york. He also suggestsd that vague or un answerable questions be not asked. The Institute no-; had the honor to welcomie one among the foremost lady ,eachers of the state, Miss Annie 1on ham, of Columbia. It tbeing niow near the closing hour the Institute ad journed till 91 o'clock Tuesday morn ing. on Tuesday morning we were pleased to note an increase in the number of teachers, the roll reaching ;7. This morning we have on hand a most excellent corps of Institute work ers, to wit, Mr. Morrison, 'Miss lion ham, Dr. Joynes, and Mr. Welch, of Clenison College. Every one seemed full of enthusiasm auit eutered heartily into the work. The only drawback was, that the time allowed was too short for the excellent talks nade by the workers. The first subject on the programme, primary work, was assigned to Misz Bonhan. In her own inimitable way, she im pressed it upon her hearers, that read ing was the study of most importance for little children; that a combined method was most satisfactory; that familiar words should first be taught, that a list should be kept for review and to be able to tell when a word was new; that we should show the object, then give the nare; that by printing the name under the written name the transition from script to print was easy. Later in the day as a continuation of primary work, Miss Bonnam showed that the child learned new words by niemory and by phonetic analogy; that the child should be taught to read in an intelligent manner from the very first, that at least four reading lessons per day should be given, and these not over ten minutes in duration. Thue secoind subject, arithrmetic, was as signed to M1r. Welch. Air. Welch began with the Least Common 31uiltiple and Greatest Coni mon Divisor and p)resented the subjects in a terse arid luicid manner wvhich cap tured the assembled teachers and visi toirs. Unfortunately the time wvas all too short to get through the subject, but we look foirward wvith great pleas ure to its co)ntinuance to-morrow. Mr. Welch also began a most inter esti ng lecture on p)enmtanshipl, showing that every curve and right time used in the formation of a letter was derivedI from the ellipse. Trhe subject of Higher English, En glish graummar, was assigned to Dr. ] Joynes. He held his audienice in deep est attention during his talks, amid the bell rang far too son. The lecture was exemoplilied beauti-( fully by drawing on the blackboard. Among other things lhe said tl:at En glish grammar was not indispenisable; that ground wvork was miost imiportanit, and the very best teachers should be a put in charge of pimnary' work. The most imphortant study wvas readilng. Tear-h to read with the intelleet andI soul; not only withb the eye-enter into the sa bject matter an d feelings of the author. D)r. Joynes also eniphasized the fact that spelling was rmost depjlorably neg lected by the youth of the presenit day. I Later as a eon tinmuation Dr. Joynes ~ saidI that English grammar did not 1 teach us how to speak atid write En glhsh correctly. It was only a guide; We learn to speak by speaking, and i learn to write by writing. Tha*t gram mar is a discip)linary study. English - grammnar is ditlUcult to teach, because, 1st it is our miother tongune, 2nd be cause it is non-grammatical. The sen tence is the uiiit of expression in E-n- 1 glishi, the word in Latin. In Latin the y ending or uniform tells all abmout the a wvord. In English we must know the b sentence to get the meaning. All this tLe doctor p)roved in amiost satisfactory -- manner. We could have listenied miuchi longer with great pleasure-and profit. Thle subject of luistory, assignied to 3 Mr. Morrison was ably presented. He wrote down 25> suggestions on the o board, which suggestions plainly indica-. ted the course to be pursued in teaching i history. Historical study was divided inito three classes represented biy three circles, in ner circle ~representing inbdi vidutal his'ory, the second circle, na tional; the third circle, philosophical - history. He stressed the use of relics ( itn connection with the event under i discussion in order to give increased in- Us telest; during the talk lie used very apt historical imeidenits to enmphasize his remarks. The hotir fo- elasing having arrin(d the Institute adjourned to mieet at t93 sharp to-morrow. We canie in on Wedniesda'y morniig too late for the early work. M1r. WelIch had arithmetic, andi taking the no. 9) explained ini a lucid man ner its peculiar properties. 'This lecture was peculiairly interest- tr lng to all and brought otit pin) ts whichD riiust be or great se-rvice to teachers. D)r. .Joynes followed ini a continua tioii of his talks oii hiigther English. In his clear and forceful manner he if showed that the English language, is tr pre-eminitently an aiialyticatl language, that the sentence is the tuit of thought and hence of ex preision; that in ana lyzing a sen tenice we go froim sentence to p.hrase; fromi phrase to word; after this analysis parsing may 1. used; but (10 not mix tp anialysis and( pairsinig.
