ELBERT H. AULL, Propet. W. P. HOCSEAL. t ELBERT H. AULL. EDrroa. THE IRONY OF FATE. The editor of The Herald and News remembers that just about two years ago he was in a certain law office in the town of Newberry and Dr. Sampson Pope was also in there, and for our benefit, we presume, he walked the tloor and declared they (meaning him self and the reformers of Newberry), had to have a paper. That was the only thing lacking-the one thing needful. Time went on, the campai-n of this year opened and the Doctor was still of the same opinion. He kept working until be got the paper. We be leive he is the largest individual share holder. To him even was given the honor and privilege of giving the paper its beautiful and euphonious name, which may be applicable, judging from its utterances but which utterances we opine the Doctor does not now believe P voice of the people. Let it be understood that The Herald and News threw nothing in the way of the Doctor planting his paper, or of inducing other people to help him* plant iL Neither have we done anything to thwart its growth since planted. This is a free country and if any man or aggregation of men want to plant their money in a news paper enterprise that is none of our besnes and we do not care any thing about it. We have always be lieved that the people of Newberry County were free and independent citi zens and knew how to appreciate merit when they saw it, and our effort has been and shall be to merit their sup port by giving them a free and inde pendent newspaper. Whenever we bave to grind out opinions on public questions to suit anybody else, then we are going to quit the businers. Of couse it is always pleasant te have the approval of your fellow-men, but it is infinitely better to have the approval of your own conscience that you have done the right and spoken the truth. But to return. Dr. Pope got his paperstarted and his hard earned money locked up in it. Dr. P>pe has been a candidate for Governor. If his paper, which has the se of his money, has given him a word of endorsement we have failed to see it. Now we know it is out strong for Evans and the ring. It is fighting the Doctor with might and main and the weight of its influence is hurled against him. He can realize now to its fullest height and depth and expr,ssion, -How sharper than a serpent's tooth It is to have a thankless child." The Doctor hates the editor of The Herald and News with a hatred that never dies. For what cause we know not and care less for we have done our duty as we saw it with malice to none. When the Doctor wants to reach the public of New berry Countyh___Wev.er,le .conmes to The Herald and News in order to do it. It is the irony of fate. We did not see his interview in his own paper and no clipping that was favorable to him. The HIerald and News, as we have frequently remarked before, is a newspaper, and no man's organ, and if you have anything to say to the public you can always say it through our columns. The Doctor an nounced last week that he would have his ticket for delegates ready for this freek. He had better thank his stars that he has not been successful in wip ing out of existence The Herald and News. He has builded a barrier be tween himself and us which forbids our supporting him, but we will be more generous to him than his own paper, in which he put his money, and for which, we presume, he subscribes, in that we will not oppose him. The Herald and News is a broad gauge newspaper and does not live and: move and have its being in the atmosphere of partisanship and ring rule. It amuses us to see the former ring rule and caucus bosses now grumbling about rings and caucuses. It is the irony of fate which brings these things home to themselves. We are natu rally " of a sympathetic nature, but even tc such an one a little revenge is sweet, though it .is an admission of the dominance for the time being, of at evil spirit. We have persistently and consistently fought the caucus, because we did not believe it was right. Every. one knows that if we had gone into it that we would have made temporary gain by it. Such a course was contrary and repugnant to our idea of the duty of an; honest journalist. Some people are beginning already to see the cor rectness of. our course and we do not believe the day is far distant before it will receive the commendation of the majority, and simply and only because it was right. It was only one year ago that Dr. Sampson Pope was the head of acaucuis or conference or convention that was held in Klettner's Hall, that was the -result of a Reform primary such as the Reformers held this year. He adminis tered an iron clad oath to those present to stand by the Reform nominee of the Reform primary in the general primary for Senator from this county. It is the irony of fare that b'rings home to the D)octor his own methc.ds and the effcts of his own teaching. The ring has outrown him.'and there are others vsho are higher up tbe ladder and there is not room there for him. Now he kieks. The Herald and News kicks too anid bas b.een kioking all the time but it has availed b.ut little. The Doctor is now tk:ing given a dose of his own phbysie and by his one time friends. It is not sweet nor pleasant to take and the ef!ect has nc li~ of co::siaot' n it, or of office either. The moral of a Lis latvat it is better :o do the right all the time and tight wrong methodsA and practice-s re-gardless of what. the immediate resulIts'.may be n'ya- your..- For as certain as there~ l' a d of truth ar;d ju-tice a hoLrub iL- nier ad iL the hollow of who- hand a, the eetinv of nations truth and justice and right will prevail and retribution is sure te overtake the wrong doer. it is better t) be right than to have the applause of the multitude or even the highest ofiice within the gift of the people. J. Hendrix 3MeLane of G;ree-nback party notoriety died in Columbia last NEWBER.RY TO THE FRON'T! A meeting of Southern business men will be held in Washington on August 29th. It will represent Southern ideas and Southern progress, and Newberry ought to have a voice in its delibera tions. We have one of the best towns in the State, and if the rest of the world doesn't know it, they never wll be informed of the fbct if we sec.udA ourselves from the balance of mankind. Let us come to the front. There are Yiany things that can be accomplished for the good of the town and the State by taking part in such a convention. We have not the space to discuss the ways and means in the case, and we simply want Newberry represented in that convention, for we believe it will be an important meeticg. The Herald and News will say to "Uncle Fuller" that it was not giving the whys and wherefores, but only stating a fact when we said that a mi nority was naming the ticket. If all the Conservatives were invited to take part in this club voting, what is the need of the general primary? That was one of the demandsof the Reform ers so that every one could have a voice in naming the candidates for the Democratic party, but the Reform ers were the first to go back on it. If all the Reformers are to stick to this minority nomination there certainly is no need of a general primary. It will simply be a huge farce so far as a State. ticket is concerned. I By the way, "Uncle Fuller" must have overlooked the fact that we got I down off the fence long enough to go out to the Reform convention and had taken a seat high up in the sanctuary, and that we were asked to get out by Bros. Sligh and Hughey. That does not look much like we were invited and welcome to their councils and de liberations. The editor of The Herald and News will not remain in meetings when he is asked to leave. Neither would we remain in a political meeting that was secret and the proceedings of which we are not permitted to give to the public. We had rather be on the outside, and then we can publish the proceedings without any violation of confidenee. We are constitutionally opposed, any way, to secret political meetings. The ring is on top and Evans is cock of the walk. But what is to become of the tail? There are so many prongs to it that somebody is sure to be left. Some of the ringsters may be smashed yet. The head of the ring has accom plished its purpose in putting Evans at the head of the ticket. It seems to us that Judge Aldrich is right in deciding the dispensary law of 189.3 unconstitutional. There is no other logical or legitimate conclusion that can be drawn. No one can deny that the principles underlying the act of 1892 are the same in the act ot 1893'. To reach any other conclusion than that reached by Judge Aldrich would be to go in the face of the plain deci sion of the Supreme Court. If this is to be done by our Circuit Judges we had better abolish our Supreme Court. Under the changed complexion of the Supreme Court the former decision may be reversed and the act declared constitutional, but until that is done the former decision is the law of the case. Any unprejudiced and fair mind must reach that conclusion. There is no escape. And they say that the Reverend J. A. Sligh and Mr. Job Hughey are sorry that they closed the doors and asked s out of the convention last Monday. They had more strength than they thought they had. Well, that is en couragng, truly. We would like for them to say if The Herald and News did not give a fuller and better report than any newspaper that was permit ted to remain. We will publish the news. We can't help it. We are buiilt that way. THE STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION. We have just returned via Harris Springs from the annual meeting of the State Press Association at Pawley's Island. I have not time this week to say much of it. While the attendance was not large yet it was one of the most delightful meetings that I have ever attended. Those who were not present missed a trip of rare pleasure and rest and profit. I will next week, I hope, be able to say a little more that will entertain if not instruct our readers. I want to make public acknowledgment to the breth ren for the honor conferred upon me and the confidence reposed in electing me to the presidency. It shall be my purpose during the coming year to awaken an interest and with the aid and co-operation of the other officers we hope to make the next meeting the best ever held. I shall spare no pains or labor to that end and I am sure I shall have the hearty co-operation of the otber officers. These annual gatherings are helpful and every editor in t be State ought to take off'at least one week and meet with us. E. H. A CLL. Managers of Primary Election. Newberry-C. L. Haiird. Jno. C.

AiKEs, S. C., August 1S.-The Svuth' Carolina dispensary case met with a Waterloo to-day. The arguments on the application of L. V. George and G. T. Holley, dispen 5er and his clerk, 1or a writ of pruhibi tion against the mayor of the city of kiken to prevent him from trying said ispenser and his clerk for violating an :rdinance of the city relating to the ale of liquor, was heard on Tuesday last, the city being represented by Messrs. G. W. Croft and M. B. \Vood ward, and the dispeuser by Assistant Attorney General Barber, 0. C. Jordan and W. G. Davis. The issue of the constitutionality of the law was squarely made by bot h parties and as squarely met by Judge Aldrich in an opinion of twenty-eight pages, filed to-day, in which he fully diRcusses the law bearing on tht issues before him. After plainly and unequivocally de claring the law of 1893 to be unconsti tutional he discusses the right of the city of Aiken to pass any ordinance regulating the sale of liquor, spiritous, malt or vincus. 'I he judge further de cides that the city of Aiken has no right to pass any ordinance regulating the sale of the liquors above mentioned, and consequently that the mayor is without power to try the dispenser and his clerk, and enjoins him perpetuaHy from so proceeding. This gives accidental prohibition, ure and aimnle and will enable the imayor to close the dispensary here by injunction from Judge Aldrich, the judge of the circuit. The judge is receiving the congratu lations of all of his many friends for squarely meeting the issue in this case and fearlessly proclaiming the law, instead of trying by some tack or turn to steer clear of the dispensary rock. THE PRIMARY. State Candidates File the Rfequired Pledges. What the Primary Means and Whut It Has to De-The General Outlook. [The State, 18th.1 In view of the many fac ional pri maries, conventions and what not, a la.ge portion of the voters seem to be all mixed up. and there is but a compa-atively small number who seem to understand what it all means. B low will be found a summary which will probably make it all clear. But before this is given attention is called to the following-one of the rules governing the primary-which affects a good many candidates who come ou'y indirectly before the people. Rule S. Candidates for the General Assembly and for county offices shall, ten days previous to the primary elec tion, file with the chairman of the county executive committee a pledge. in writing, to abide the result of the primary and support the nominees of the party. Candidates for other offices shall file such pledge with the chair man of the State Democratic Execu tive Committee. No vote for any cadidate who not complied with this rule shall be counted. Yesterday was the las day of grace, under this rule, for the fiiling of these pledges. It is not known if the candi dates for county offices in Richland have filed their pledges or not. Pledges of candidate for State offices have, however, been filed with the secretary of the State Executive Com mittee, as follows: For Governor-John Gary Evans and Sampson Pope. For Lieutena ut Governor-Dr. W. H. Ti mmerman. For State Treasurer-W. T. C. Bates. For Attorney General-O. WV. Buch anar.. For Secretary of State-,Harrison, Bill and Tompkins. For Comproller General-A. W. .ones, Norton and Derham. For Superintendent of Education Keitt, Mayfield and Whitman. For Adjutant General-John Gary Watts,. Minus and Rich bourg. For Railroad Commissioners-Evans, Sligh, Thomas, Wilborn, Yeldell and Gary. All the candidates for Congress have also filed i.eir pledlges, with one ex ception. The above candidates are, of conurse, the only ones whose names can be considered at the September conven tion, composed ofs. the electors to be chosen in this primary. The Senatorial fight will be fought out in this election in the choice, by the people, of members of the Legisla ture. The gubernatorial and State ticket fight will be fought out in the choice of electors to the State convention, whieb meets September 6. The whole thing is looking only to the putting up of the nominees of the Democratic party-Conservative in cded-which goes before the entire people in the general election in No vember. In the primary no person can.note unless he has been enrolled on a regu lar Democratic precinct club list at least five days before the electiotn. This is important, and all should see to it To become a member the applicant must be 21 years of age .y the succeed ing general election, and must take the pledge required by the rules of the D'.ueratic party-to support the nominees of the primary and abide the result. Negroes who voted for H amp ton in 1576, and have voted the Demo ratic ticket continuously since, can also become club mem bers. The polls will open on the 23thb, at S a. in., and will el.se at 4 p. mn., at every precinct in the State. The results have to be forwarded to the county execu tive committees within forty-eight hours after the close of the polls. The county committees will meet at 1 a. in., on the 29th, and declare the r suits, forwarding them to the chair man of the State comogtee "immedi ately." A majority vote is required to nominate candidates and elect electors to the State Convention. If a second primary is necessary, it must be held exactly two weeks later. In the election votes will. be cast for Delegates to the September Conven tion. Congressman. State Senator. Members of the House of Representa tives. Judge of Probate. County Supervisor. Coroner. (Every fourthb year.) School Commissioner. Treasurer. Auditor. Clerk of Court. (Every fourth year.) Sherifi. (Every fourth year.;. Just now the situation is very pecu liar. John Gary Evans has the Re form nominat ion for Governor, given by a convention representing about one-third of the Roform strength of the State. Dr. Pope, by filling his pledge with the committee, cannot go beyond the primary or September Con vention in his candidacy for G.overnor. Tere are at least 40,000 Reform voters who have niot expressed their prefer ence, and 30,000 Conservatives whbo will have a say. This vote is the unknown quantity in the .coming primary, and no one can possibly tell to whom it will go, or even whether it turn out at all or not. As to the men who will go on the State ticket, of course no one can at tept to say what the result wvill be, save in those instances where no op position has developed. The as yet un known September Convection electors have this matter in their hands, and many a candidate is on the anxious bench. Then there is the Butler-Till moan fight for members of the Legisla It is all now very much in the dark. It is safe however, to say that thbe gn nernatorial race, so tar as the primary is concerned, will be between only Evans and Pope. No third man is going PItOSPEitIT LrTTEI0.. PROsPER1TY.

The scene of two years ago at thi primary reminded us that our wish i visionary. The annual meeting (f the Lutherai Sunday-sebool Convention of New berry County was held here in Urao Church, as annownced, last Wednesda, and Thursday, August 1.5 and 16. Thi Convention was not full nor largell attended but the speakers for discussinm topics, with a very few exceptions, wer on hand and the sessions pro rtd o great interest and profit. Rev. Z. '% Bedenbaugh presided and is a ver: good executive ofticer. _ir. A. H Kohn was Secretary and the same offi cers were elected for the next meetin which is left to the executive commit tee.

Langford can now b found behind Ole counter at Kohn Birge's. Dr. Pope. Dr. Pope's interview last week ha been republished in the daily new. papers. The Doctor's course has bee1 attracting wide attention, it being a bi and bold move on his part. As th Doctor is one of our fellow-citizens and the matter being of interest at thi particular time of surprises, we wil re peat a few things some of the editor say: The Chester Reporter says Di Pope has true grit. The News an< Courier says he way be defeated at th approaching primary, but that he de serves credit for the stand he is takin, for "a free, fair, open fight before th peonle." That he has not soug:lt to ge tbejump on any of the other candidate for State officers, but is willing to tak his chances with the rest of themu The News and Courier also adds tha if Dr. Pope will send his tickets ther be will get many a vote for Governor ii Charleston. The Greenville News say that there is much to te said for Dj Pope; that he was one of the earlies Reformers, when to be so was unpop ular and politically dangerous au when the odds were all the ot her way that the same qualities which mad him a Reformer then make him kicker and a rebel now; that he i howing a good deal of the courage c the Indian who goes to the stake chant ig his death song, but erect and un daanted: and that he is acting a man* part. The Spartanburg Herald say that Dr. Pope has ex hibited a wonder f.l amount of backbone and inde pendence. The Herald also says tha it begins to look as if thbe Conservati'e will have to vote for the Doctor or oc at all, and adds: "As between Di Pope and no vote, we are for Dr. Pop every time." The Johnstone Monitoi disposed to be humorous, compares th contest to a horse race, and says tha Dr. Pope "flung" his jockey an, stopped to graze awh.ile, but hopes _t take a fresh start and win by a neck the general primary. The Columbi Register says that Dr. Pope has n chance whatever; that the Conservi ives, who have been and are still act ing so mysteriously, are not going t support Dr. Pope; that all the hope h has is in a few disaffected Reformners.an, that outside of his county it is not be lieved he will get two hundred Refort votes. Therefore the Register think he has no possible chance of being noni iated in the primaries. Which lead the Register to further remark, the the Conservatives are holding offi many counties and Dot putting ou candidates for the Legislature; that thi may mean much or little; that it ma mean that they know they have ni chance in the primaries, or that the are holding back for some kind of al independent movement, and that th public will eagerly watch for develog ments along this line.
