Lintless Cou:on.
Mr. J. P. Davenport has given The
Herald and News a boll of lintless cot
ton seed. This ball of cotton had a
very small quantity of the lint but
none of it fastened to the seed.
Mr. Davenport says that he found a
boll in his field last year without any
lint on the seed and took these seed
and planted them, and this year there
is less lint than last year. He thinks
these seed by another year will not pro
duce any lint at all.
But the question is how would you
gather these seed. When the boll opens
they all fall to the ground. Without
the lint there is nothing to hold the
seed in the holl.
We are giving satisfaction in net
weight of lint. Our gins fairly skin the
seed at

THE coUNrY ALLIANCE.
An Harmonious and Quiet Meeting-Wel
Attended-What Was Done.
The regular quarterly meeting of th(
Newberry County Alliance was held iu
the Courthouse at Newberry on Tues
day. There was a good attendance and
the session lasted from 11 a. rm to about
4 p. in. There was nothing given
out for publication of especial public
interest. The meeting was harmonious
and the best of good-will prevailed.
Rev. J. A. Sligh, the county presi
dent, presided. District Lecturer J. L.
Keitt and County Lecturer Pope were
both in attendanct. The following is
the roll of delegates and the Alliances
they represented. In addition to these
there were a number of Alliancemen
present but not as delegates. The mem

Feagle, S. N. Kibler, L. L. Dominick.
There were also present.Secretary C.
F. Boyd, Treasurer Benjamin Halfacre,
Chaplain J. Epting, and Assistant Lee.
turer J. T. Duncan.
The Executive Committee-R. T. C.
Hunter, L. P. Miller and H. C.Wilson,
were also present.
The committee on arbitration and
good of the order, consisting of Capt. H.
H. Folk, Mr. T. W. Keitt and Dr. W.
E. Lake, was also in attendance.
A resolution was adopted requesting
all Alliancemen to subscribe for the
National Economist as the only means
of informing themselves on Alliance
matters.
The arbitration committee reported
that the difficulty, between the two
factions of the Trinity Alliance had
been amicably adjusted. The old alli
ance had paid up its dues and been
reinstated, and was represented in the
meeting by Mr. W. A. Reid.
The following resolution, prepared by
Lecturer S. Pope, was adopted:
Resolved, That the Newberry Coun
ty Alliance endorses the course of Presi
dent J. Wm. Stokes, in defending the
principles -ud demands of the order,
and bids A-im God speed in the good
work.
A good portion of the time was taken
up in bearing the report of the County
Lecturer on the result and work of the
recent campaign in the county. Upon
the whole this report was encouragilng
and the work was satisfactory. Only
at two of the appointments was there
any drawback. At Mt. Tabor, the first
meeting held, the lecturer sai" that
they were given a very cordial recep
tion and everything moved smoothly
until late in the afternoon, after the
speaking had been concluded, when
brother Scott poured hot shot into the
speakers and rather threw a damper
over w hat was said.
At Bush River the meeting was
rather informal, there being no one
there to introduce the lecturers and no
accommodations provided. At the
other appointments there was nothing
to mar the harmony nor counteract the
influence of the lecturers, and every
thing moved on smoothly.
The Liberty Hall matter camne up
naturally. by the inquiry if that Sub
alliance had obeyed the resolution
adopted by the last- County Alliance,
asking it to -rescind certain resolutions
passed by it, all of which has been pub
lished heretofore. This brought from
Mr. Juo. WV. Scott, a delegate from
Liberty Hall, a statement to the effect
that Liberty Hall had not rescinded
the resolutions in question. He re
viewed the whole caoe, including the
action of the County All.iance and the
Liberty Hall Sub-Alliance.
It was all considered in a friendly
way and the matter, on resolution, was
referred to the Committee on Arbitra
tion and the Good of the Order, and
no doubt will all be settled peacefully
and harmoniously. The arbitration
cimittee and a committee from Lib
erty Hall will meet to adjust the mat
ter at an early date. The trouble seems
to be now, not that Liberty Hall re
fused to endorse the Ocala platform, or
at least some por-tions of it, but because,
as an Alliance, it endorsed the Demo
cratic party, that being considered con
trary to the constitution of the order
which forbids having anything to do
with partizan polities, as an alliance,
but permits the mnenmbers to belong to
whatever political party they choose.
A meeting of Warehouse trustees was
held after the adjournment of the Alli
ance but nothing is given out for pub
lication.
The sub-lecturers will meet the dis
trict and county lecturers at Newberiy
on the 24th instant, at 11 a. mn.

A Big Day at the Police Cour'.
A scribe for The Herald and News
happened in the neighborhood of the
city hall Tuesday morning just in time
to be present at a fiId day, so to speak,
in the police court. There were sev
eral cases up and the crowd present in
dicated that something mor.- than
routine was to come on.
Mayor Goggans held the scales of
justice, and it did not t-ake long for
him to weigh out to each offender his
or her portion.
"Pearl Buzhardt, Minnie Buzhardt,
Ira Simkins and John Young, drunk,
disorderly and fighting" was read out
by Clerk Fair. They were ordered to
stand up and then to sit down, and the (
evidence was soon taken. The scene I
of the disturbance was at the flying
trapeze on Monday night. Mayor
Goggans threw out a warning to Min
nie and Pearl that they were proper
subjects to answe. to the law against
vagrants and then proceeded to impose
a fine of $10 or 13 days on each in the
presen fase. He expressed some syni
pathy with Ira and then gave hini and
John $2 or .1 days each. They paid up.
Theo. Spehl and Louis Crede fight
ing, was next read. Very little testi
money in this case except that the two
men had a fight in Crede's bakery.
Spehl $3 and Crede $2 was the fine in
each case. They paid.
There was another case which was
dismissed for failure of the prosecutor 1
to appear.
Gratifying to all.
The high position attained and the
universal acceptance and approval of
the pleasant'liquid fruit remedy Syrup
of Figs, as the most excellent laxative
known, illustrate the value of the qua
lities on which its success is baqed and
are abundantly gratifying to the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Company.
Teachers' Association. &M
The County Teachers' Association
met at the Graded School building on
Saturday, 10 inst. Neither the presi
dent nor vice-president being present,
Mr. Frank Evans was called to the
chair.
The result of the election of officers
for the coming year was as follows:
President, Frank Evans; 1st Vicc-Presi
dent, Arthur Kibler; 2nd Vice-Presi
dent, T. W. KeiLt; Secretary and Treas
urer, Miss Fannie Baxter; Executive
Committee, Arthur Kibler, Mrs. J. A.
Long and W. A. Counts. T. W. Keitt
was chosen editor of the Teachers' col
umn in The Herald and News.
After the election had been finished,
the regular programme for the day
was taken up.
Mr. Evans, of the Graded Schools,
presented in an earnest and practical
way his methods of teaching geogra
phy. His ideas were suggestive, and
can easily be put into practice by a
little thought ana preparation on the
part of the teacher.
Mrs. J. A. Long read a paper on the
way to teach spelling. Mrs. Long
having given the subject thought was
prepared to give the Association some
valuable hints as to the be-t way to use
the spelling book. Her paper was lis
tened to with interest by the teachers.
After the discussion of this subject and
the preceding one, the association ad
journed to meet at Newberry on 2nd
Saturday in November, at 11 a. m.
Two of those appointed to read pa
pers were absent, but we feel sure that
they had sufficient excuse, or they
would have been present.
The first association of the yeir was
an encouraging one, and we expect
better results this year than ever be
