H. kULL, EDITOR. ELBERT H. AULL, Pr6prietors. WM . HOUSEAL, NEWBERRY. S. C. THUUSDAY, OCTOBER -, 1S91. nOW IS TME Y(GHTTO -E MADE The News and Courier and the Green ville News have been indulging :a a 4ittle cross-firiug as to the Ocala de wands and Democracy, all of which has grown out of the question raised about fighting the Ocala demands in side the Democratic primaries. We are inclined to think the Green - ville News is right. The thing should be fought squarely out in the Demo cratic primaries. Some good and true nien-membe:s of the Democratic or gaoi-:ation, who have stood shoulder to shoulder for good and horlest gov ernment, want these demands. If a majority of the Democrats of this State decide to adopt this Ocala platform we have nothing left to do but to adopt or go out of the party. What is Democ racy, any how? Is it not the rule of the people? Iu a republican form of government the majority rules, but it does not suppress the right of free sp .4 and free thought. We :h=;k if the issue is squarely and fairly wet before the white people of eperf.-tate.a majority oLtbe people Nill wri-sls a. .of Fre.~. of these demands. tu a --" His mint- ed be opposed to uior i o s Let the issue be squarely J . 7ie Greenville News ver,y wei.... . speaking of these demands and the way to nieet the issue: We are not good at splittiag hairs or dwelling on fine points of logic. All we know is that a large number of men who are Democrats, members of Demo cratic clubsan4d enitled to vote ja > Da_t-ettro tic primaries and club meet ings ere for the Ocala demands and wish to Noie fu- party candidates who repiesent tu.u and delegates to con ventions who favor them. We do not feel stiong enough to kick these big nsted, loud lunged bretbrea of ours out of the party. We would'nt do it if we could. They are white men, in the first place and we have a kind of natural banikerg and love for them becuse of that iact and bec3ause they have been faiLhful soas of the State so many times. In the second place, they ae iighty useful folks to fall back on i.l an emergency. We thiuk they have been mind and made fools of in some matters-as all of us have been and are liable to be-by certain crafy and pes tiferous leaders seeking their own ad. vantage. We waut to see a.square, niaa light on this m.tter, brain against br.in and b-east to Lreast, with no un der holds, back stabbi-g or blows in tb, dark, so;that when the fight h-,s been fought and the strongest has woa tie people of South Carolina can shake hands with each other and get to Vther again for the State. Democrats who oppose the Ocala de mands can .tid practical work in or a-nizi og and ma.ing their oppositiou ~elt. It tuese demands are not in the party we can keep them out; i'they are in we can put them out. We can do it by going at it. We can not do anything by standing on our digmity, by threatening or buildoming, by leav ing the party to take care of itself or by sneering, denunciatiug or empty he-oies. Those things don't count. Ernest, honest work'ng and voting do count. Superinteclden3t of Edecation May feld has been paying the,teacheis of Newberry County some very high comn plimenis. Ini some of his talks before in stitutes in other pai ts of the State he holds up Newberry as the model county and her teachers among the best in the State. This is ve'y nice in Mr. Mayfield and Sit .is 1--ue. Newberry has a fine set of teaches and they are interested in their wofk. TLbis is the great necd of the age. Good common schools in every com munity in the State within reach of all the children. The teachers should keep up the high standard they have attained and aspire to still higher things. Governor Tillman needs to be com mended for his action i'i ordering the shie:if to return the negro who ki!led Mavor Hen aenan back to the Spartan buzg jail. This tbYig of rai..nioig pris oners arou ad over the country to avoid lynching does not speak well for the law abiaing spirit of t.he citizens of any communi.y. a'nd when it is once un de's.cod that sherifis w1l protect thei: prisoners there w-1l not be so much e 7ort to lynch. M we pretend to have courts they should t--y and condemn violato s of lawv. Governor T"!lman is *.sht inl this matter. iimLDING TOWNS AND C)T) Es. Every town is just what its citizens make it. They are its lifeblood. W\hat ever its reputation, good or bad, it has been madeC by them. The toil is for them and to themi comes the tesult. N.> man helpis his town without bene fiting himself. If citizens are sluggish, the town is c.orrespoudinUgly -slow. If they are active and punshing the town %grows, and they grow with it.-Wadley This is a ne-w paper, whose first nu,m her has the ext; act quol A above. Thbe E::press may live a long time and its editor write inany aiticles, lbut he will never turn a pairagraph with more -sense a'id truth than the one we have quoted above. "Every town is what i'-citizens make it,"' and this applhes to Wadley, Augusta, 110stonl or any place uinder the sun. Every man who helps his town helps himself. If F ' "lke are inert the townl will, be slow. There is a lesson ini every line of this article. A ind that is what the people are le-ar'zing and taking to heatrt.--Au Th is is thle doctrni i The HIerald and News hi; been prearbsing for years, eae it is youndl and true*.

C. Garington1. The Herald hi's been ai success. We arc sorry to lose NI r. Jones, but the interests of the Herald are in good hands. Nr. GIarlington is brainy, a bold and fcarless wvriter and will keep the Hlerald abreast the pro. eession. A NEEDED INDUSTRY. Newberry has built a cotton mill. an oil mill and fertilizer companq, and no one has ever doubted the wisdom of the invetment. They have been good things for the town and those who put their money in them. The Herald and News believes that a roller mill here w-uld be a paying in vestment. A good deal of talk is beinghad about our people growing their own bread at home and in our opinioi it is the proper thing for them to do. Nothing will so help towards the growing of wheat as the building of a first-class roller mill. It will help the farmer, and also help those who put their money in it, and help the town, t have it built here. Now is the time to start it so that more wheat can be planted. We would like for our farmers to take the stock and feel a personal interest in it. The writer was over at Gibsonville, in North Carolina, a few days ago and in that little town of 200 or O00 people, they have a roller mill and it is owned largely by the farmers, and it is a pay ing investment and a good thing for the community. The Herald and News would like to hear from some of our farmers on this subject. A fifty barrel mill could be bu*t and equipped for about $10,000. That sum could be easily secured and we beieve there is nothing that would pay so well. The Herald and News would be glad t t to hear from our business men and farmers on this subjcct. The farmers of Fish Dam, Union aet i " last week and decided to c - as may -tton to the County, me. ~ tn to t11 plant only twelveacres otbe L mule iext year and as a resui. plant more small grain. This is a move in the right direction and if fol lowed out will do more to liberate the Southern farmers than anytbing else. The Charleston World bas indefinite ly suspended publication. It seems to us that Charleston is large enough to sustain two mornig dailies. We re gret the World has been forced to sus pend, although for some time it has for some cause refused to exchange with The Herald and News. The Coosaw contest is still on. The attorneys in the case appeared before Judge Simonton at Spartanburg on Monday. The object was to dissolve the temporary injunction secured by Coosay on Oth March last against some other companies. Judge Simoaton to(, the papers and reserved his d - cisinr. Mr. Cleveland is making speeches in New York in behalf of the Democratic ticket What has become of the proposition for water works and e'ectric lights for Newberry?

Clev-eland Presents her Husband w;th a Fine Daughter-The WVhole Coantry Joins the Democratic Leader la his Great Joy. NEW YORK, October 3.-A daughter was boca to Mrs. Grover Cleveland shortly after midnight. The mother and daughter are doing well. The important news did not become known down-town until nearly noon. Then it spread with the utmost rapi' ity both in the city and to other parts of' the couhtry. During the af' :rnoon many flowers were sent into Mrs. Cleveland and both father and mother received hearty congratulations. Then messenger bo::s began to move up the aver ue with telegiaphic messages irom all parts of the country. Ex-President Clevelsnad was evidently a pie.sad man wden seen about the recent addition to his housebold. He received the press repr esentatives in the drawing room and anticipating the question that woo!ld be asked him said :"Yes, it is trae. My~ w7le was safely delivered of a litdie gi'-l this morning at six minutes past nyid ight, and both mnotber and ebild are doing spendidly. Mrs. Cleve land has resited quietiy all day. The child is sirong and healthy and at its birth weighed eight pounds." The Ex-P resident is quoted as say ong: "I don't want to biag any, but to s baby now is as stout and as gcod as mnost babies are when they are three] oc f'our days old."1 MIRS. FRANK LESL1 9: MARitIED. A QuietA Tar l New York A Woman of I .narkable Energy and Bra'ns. NEsw YoRng, Oct. 5.-A marriage oc curred here which created a genuine surprise in society and 'iterary circles. Mrs. Frank Leslie, he-cd of the Frank Leslie publications, was married to William C. Kingsbery. A. M., of Lon don. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. C. I'. Deems, only a limited number of pe .ons being present. The marriage bad not been previously an nounced, so it naturally occasions no little surprise. The happy groom is a gentleman of unquesiioned social position, a schc'ar of rare attainments and the possessor of consideza:>le wealth. During Mis. Leslie's recent visit to London she attended a literary gathering at the residence of a lady of distinction, and there met Mr. Kingsberry. It was a case of love at first sight, and all mie-1 mory of the Marquis de Leuville was knocked out. The two were frequently in each other's company, and th'e attachment grew stronger. After Mrs. Lesli?~s return to New York she w. q visited by the En;glishman, but few susp)ectedl that an eng.: emuent existed. Mrs. Leslie is one of the must re ma:irkable womien of th)is generation. Hecr career br'a beeun exceptionally eventful. She was born of humble parents, who were too poor to give her a collegiate education. WVhen yet in her tecns she was an attache of the grent. publishinrg house of Frank Leslie. M1.-. Frank Leslie was unhatppily mar riedl, and lie and his wife finally sepa ratedl. A dlivore~ enud Sooa after wardl the young lady, who was a great favorite ini the e.stablishmnent becamte a portege of the ow ner. lIn time hie became enamored of her oplenit charms, and finally they were zirried. T[le union proved a happy one. When Mr. Leslie died he left his wife in ebarge of all the business, which she has since managed with re miarkable a'gacity. Her succes has b'ien really surprising. WVolfe's Own Little Alliance. L From the Orangeburg Enterprise and Alliance Monitor.] 31 -. Wmliami C.

IMPRESSIONS OF FORT HILL. Beautiful Location--Grand Institution BeIDg Rapidly Pushed to a Comple fion-Great Amoant of Work Done and Belag Done. A short time ago we had occasion to visit the historic home of John C. Cal houn. We had read and heard of the work going on at Fort Hill, and had some idea, as we thought, of the mag nitude of the enterprise; but our visit proved how far short was our idea of the reality. To comprehend tbe g:'itness of the enterprise, it is necessary to visit the ,younds and see for one's self. Any description sbat does justice to tbis great work, aud to the efficiency and .eal of thote to whom it is entrusted, would likely be looked upon as exager ited. The first th*!g that impresses one is .he systematic order in which all busi ness is carried on. Artisans, mechan cs, common laborors, teamsters. all usy with the work assigoed, coming md going as busy as oees, without ostle or friction. This shows that a naster band is at the belm. It is with wonder that one contemplates the tmount of work that has heen done in o short a time. Just think of it! Withia the space of a few months here have been erected three splendid )rick residences for professors ; a large )rick laboratory, which, when fitted up vi.'l be surpassed by none in the States; large brick mechanics' hall ; the xperiment stat-on house ; six neat iamed cottages completed and two )thers about framed. An immense lormitory to accammodate from 6C0 to 50 students, is completed as to brick vork, and is being rapidly put under over. The main building, the Col ege proper, is, by this writing, well on o the second story, and being now in he bands of a full force of masons will peedily be comp'eted. A large barn Lnd stables ..or horses, also a large barn md silos for cattle have been built. A arge brick yard is kent constantly in >peration, and the bricss made are of a ine quality. The enumetation of the above build Qs does not by any means convey an i the wo' k done; The1 a over , -WW~uuldings and idequaEe ir he pri tockade, several mipbr -gold Y a the large amount of excavation ary for foundations represent an im mense deal of work. The only way to form a just concep tion of all this is to go and see for your elf. Mr. Jno. F. Calhoun, a most bospitable and entertainingpgentleman, keeps an excellent boarding uouse, and ravellers can readily get accommoda tious. While at Fort Hill it was our good fortune to be the guest of President Strode, and also to eajoy the hospital ity of Col. Harden's home. In these households otie meets with that type f Virginians which has made "Vir ginian" a synonym for nobleness, abivalry and hospita-ity. We knew Col.,H arden some years ago, and the ? enewal of acquaintance with his housebold was peculiarly pleas ing to us. The Colo ael is a master in bis work and bas the ablity to -mpart his knowledge to his pupils, which is the most necessary faculty foral -acher to possess. The trustees are to be con gratulated upen their selection. Presi dent Strode impresses one as being "business" to the coce. One can readily see that he-is master of every detail of the vast work under bis charge. He is endowed with great ability and un limited capaciky for hard work. which not only evidences his power to carr y out the great enterpr:se on hand, but is a pledge of its future growth. At the station we met the energetic Secretary or the Board of TL ustees, Dr. Sloan. I wish circumstances had al lowed a longer chat. He was then engaged in busiaess con nectd with the college. Just as th' train came up we had the pleasure of matking the ac gnaintance of Col. R. WV. Simpson. While going from Pendletoln to Ander son we hatn a very pleasant and in structive talk with him. We regretted that he had reached his destination and that our conversation had t ' end. We are iadebted to bim for much in formation concerniog the work at Fort Hill. He impresses one as a genmal gentleman, unusually well fitted for the important position he holds in the making of thir great institution. The Clemson Agricultural and M: eanical College is destined to be a grand institution, and will, in the fu ture, w'eld a great influence for good in this and in other States. The people of this State have just cause to be proud that such an inetitotion is being erected in their midst. Everyone who an should visit Fort Ii ill Especially should those do so, in vhose bands rests, in a mersure, the future finana e:al 'welfare of the College. It deserves nd should have fult financial aid from the State. The returns from funds invested in uch an institution in the cause of ed ucation, can not be figured on. Let every one lend a hand to the advance nent of this grand work, and .ronm the ioors of the Clemson Agricultural and Mechanical College will go forth those whose minds will be fitted and whose bands will be trained to guide any hing from the plow to the Ship of State. VOYAGE~UR CAROLINA AT CHICAGO. overor Tiliman CaIns a Convent-on to Discass World's Fair Matte"s. Governor Tillman has issued a call for a convention to discuss World's air matters, to be held in the hEll of he House of Representatives during air week. It is as follows: FELLOw CyrTES-In May; 1893, :he Columbian Exposition comnmemc ative or the discovery of America, will pen at Chicago. Located at the commercial centre of lorth America, this expositi"n promi ues to eclipse all previous efforts to ather in one spot the products of art, science, agriculture and the manufac urng induistrie- of the world ; and it is of the great st importance that iSouth D~arolina should sieze the oppportunity t offers to make known to the millions af visitors who will attend the fair, the mdvantages this State possesses for those seeking homes. An intelligent and industrious class >f white immigran' is the desideratum ror our State, and we should make ll reasonable efloris to attract them. For the pu lpose of enlisting the ctive co-operation and intelligent aid f all classes and callings of our people, md remembering the fact that South arolinia was not represented at the Centennial Exposition at Philadelphia, t is or more importance not to miss this opportun'ty. L, therefore, as chief magistrate, here by call a convention of all persons who ay come or their own accord, or as lelegates from manufauring com panis, county or sub-Alliances, city :ouncis, boards of trade, railroad cor porations, etc., to assemble in the Hall f the House of Rlepresentatives on Thursday night of fair week at 8 'clock. Thbis convention will discuss the best methods of raising the neces iary money and of organizing to secure the ends sought. (Signed.) B. R. TILLMAN, Governor. Horrors of the Russian Fami;e.

[The State, 2nd.) John Williams, the slayer of Mayoi Henneman, of Spartanburg, was taker from the Richland jail yesterday morn ing and carried back to Spartanburg. via Camden and Blacksburg, by De puty J. W. Holloway. The matter it fully explained in the following state ment, made by Governor Tillman: "On Tuesday morning last Sherif) Nichols, of Spartanburg, came into the executive office to report the arrival in Columbiaof a prisoner, John Williams, from Spartanburg. Sheriff Rowan was unwilling to receive him without an order from me. "Sheriff Nichols reported that the jail at Spartanburg had been guarded by Henneman's fi iends on Sunday in order to prevent the ptisoner being re moved; that considering the excited state of feeling, and what he considered reliable information, tbat runners had been sent out to the factories and othe. points around Spartanburg, and also that dispatches had been sent to Green ville and Laurens to those desiring to take part in the lynching, he, Mr. Nichols, after consulting with some of the best and coolest heads, deemed it best to remove the prisoner, which he did also upon the advice of Solicitor Schumpert, with whom he had com municated. "I told him that be bad to carry the prisoner back to Spartanburg, and after canvassing the situation in all its fea tures the following orders were written: INSLUCrIoNS TO SI. ERIFF NICHOLS. COLU3IN0A, Sept. 29. John M. Nichols, Esq., Spartanburg. SIR: It bad just as well be understood that the law in South Carolina must be respected, and that lynch law will not be tolerated. You will, therefore, return to Spar tan burg to-night and summon a posse of brave and trusty deputies to be in readiness by Thursday.

Respectful''. B. .. T ?.LMAN, Governor. sHERiFFS MUST DEFEND PRISONEBd. Gov. Tilimian further commenting o.i the return of the prisoner said: "Yesterday morning before leaving here I gave instructions to Sherifi Rowan s' to what he should do. "It may as well be understood once for all in 'South Carol na that thbe law must be enforced and that Sheriffs, in stead of dodging real oc imaginary mobs, must defend their prisoners with their lives if necessa;-y. "If an officer of the law cannot pro tct a prisoner then he bas ho business to arrest him, and thbe priso)ner once ar rested must be safe from molestation of any authority ex'ceept that of the court." THE ABRLvA L AT SPA RTANEUFG. SPA RTA NBURG, S. C., Oct. 1.-John Williams, the slayer of Mayor Heiine man, was brought from Columbia to. day by a special constable.

Acting First Lieut.) and Second Lieut. M. L. Micbell, boarded tbe train and accompanied the prisoner to this city. It was feared that an attempt would be made to lvnch Williams, so the governor ordered the company to prtect him. There was a large crowd at the depot but no demonstration was made, and Williams is now safely lodged under Sheriff Nicholl's care. The comnany returned to-night to Clifton. /'be jail is heavily guarded and it is safe to say that no attempt will be made to take the pr:soner. THE END OF THlE UORLD.

IFrom the Chrster Reporter.1 It seems to us that it would be possi. ble for every Sub-Alliance in South Carolina to have a school, the publi funds to he supplemented with private funds. The appalling fact exists that a large proportion of the agricultural population of the St ate cannot read, Many Alliance men will say that they are too poor to educate their children. Educate by co-operation. The Alhi ance is now spending a great deal of money for political education ; they can and should maintain literary ed~ ucation. There ought to be a greal campaign waged for improved schools. If they will, the Sub-A tl ances caz bold the key to popular education 1r the cuntry districts.
