ELBERT U. AULL, Proprieor WM. P. HOUSEAL, f ELBERT H. AULL. EDITOP. A Cal to Democrats to Meet. All Democ-ats of Newberry County who repudiate the Third party plat form, and who give allegiance only to true Democratic principles as enun clated at the last National Democratic Convention,are requested to assemble at Newberry Courthouse at 11 o'clock a. m., Saturday, the 1.5th day of Septem ber, 1894, to consider and determine the question of electing delegates to a State Convention called for Monday, September 17, for the purpose of reor: --gaizing the Demogratie party in New berry County in strict alignment with the National Democratic party, and for the pnrpose of considering the political situation in the State and taking such action as their collective wisdom may suggest for the public welfare. THE CALL MADE. We publish this week the call for a convention of Democrats. The purposes of the call are set forth in the documenl itself. It is temperate in tone and it purpose is to hold Democrats to Demo eratic principles and teachings and tc saveltbeiparty from Populism. That is a good object and should succeed, bul we have no reason to change the viewE expressed last week. If a ticket is pul in the field defeat is inevitable. With out a ticket we see no good to be ac complished by organization at thi; -- time. On the other hand we can se( mlchfikrm t_b_stmay result from mak ing a hopeless fight. The time foi making the fight this year has passed. The Columbia Journal has a good and sensible article on the subjecl against nominations. We go furthei th .n the Journal. The Herald an News not only believes it will be a mis take to make nominations but we be lieve it is a mistake to hold the con vention called to meet in Columbia or the- 17th. We know there are somi men and newspapers on our side wh< will say that we are weak kneed an timid. Be it so. Defeat now will do more to retard and throw back the very thing thos who are calling this convention desir than anything else can do. This move ment will solidify the Tillmanites anc those who have been lukewarm an ready to renounce Tillmanism will b4 driven back into the ranks and Till manism will be stronger than it evei was. It does seem to us that the op ponents of Tillmanism will never lear any political wisdom. At this late da3 there are many Conservatives who fee bound to support the nominees and i: not to give them active support certain. ly not to favor any opposition ticket V,ith lukewarmness and divisions and halting in the Conservative ranks there can be no hope of success. Thi Herald and News for one cannot giv4 support to any tiCket put out now othe than by the September convention o: the 19th unless that convention does something to make it impossible fo, us to support its ticket. We have recognized the Irby com -mit tee as the head of theDemocratic or ganization, and being the regular Dem cratic machinery of the State. Undel its call we organized our clubs, elected delegates to the county convention and members of the executive committee and we went into the primaries and after having done all that and gong through the primaries and been de. feated we should not now talk abonl organizing the Democracy and puttinh out a ticket. You will be unable t< make a large majority of the very peo ple you want to reach look upon it it any other way than as an independeni movement and a bolt. The Herald and News is not witi the movement and cannot endorse o1 advise any one t' take part in it. If such a movement was contemplated it should have been inaugurated before the or ganization of the clubs under the Irby committees. The call provides for a mass meeting at the court house in Newberry nexi Saturday. No one seems to have thE matter directly in hand in this county, but as we understand it all Democrat: are invited. That is broad. Two years ago the Conservatives of Newberry were opposed to the Sheppard move ment and it looked for a long time as ij we were going to do the sensible thing and stay out, but at the last moment a few Conservatives got together in the court -house and sent delegates to Co lumbia and committed us to the move ment. There was never a bigger mis .take and we said so then. This preseni movement is just as much a"will o' the wisp" movement and we do not pro pose that any one shall commit us tc its support. The best thing that we can do now is to let things rock. An enthusiastic and earnest position of masterly in activity would be about the best thing we could do. That is the way we feel and we would be very glad to see New berry take no part in the call for a convention to he held in Columbia on 17th. And in taking this position The Herald and News is just as true a Democrat and as true a patriot as any son of Carolina. Senator Mower, of Newberry, is said to have attended the Butler conferencE in Columbia last Friday night. Sena tor Mower is the treasurer of Erskine College at Due WVest and was a sup. porter of Greenwood County at the last session of the Senate. WVe trust be will not support an independent ticket. Such a course on Lis part might injurE the college.-Abbeville Medium.. You need not give ycurself undue concern about Senator Mower. I: every member of the A. R. P. church was as good a friend of Erskine College as Senator Mower it would never suf fer by politics or anything else. We are not authorized to speak for Senator Mower and do not know what position he may take but whatever it may be it will be dictated and governed by a sense of right and justice. The Me dium had something to say about in juring Erskine College because Senato-r Mower favored Greenwood County. It will do Erskine College no good to have it lugged into every little politi calimeve that appears upon the political chess board. The Medium should rise above such little things as this. .LJ IN AGAIN. Dr. Sampson Pope has entered the race for Governor again. This time he enters for the November election. He first entered as a candidate "subject to the action of the Reform convention which is to meet sometime during the spring or summer," to use his own words. After the canvas had pro gressed for awhile he withdrew from that race and announced that he would not submit to that convention, but would appeal to the people directly in the general primary on August 28. He remained in that race for a day or two and then withdrew from the field entirely, but advised the Conservatives not to vote for delegates in the primary for they had been treated-outrageously. In anoEdr column way be found his card announcing that he has entered again for the general election in N< vember, and that he is his own candi date and running on his own hook. When he first entered he was a strong dispensary man, and in an interview announcing his candidacy which was published in the State he said of the dispensary law: "The dispensaryset I feel sure will be attacked in the next campaign, but I am satisfied that the people will sustain it. I was in favor of a high license act being passed in 1892, but after seeing the workings of the dispensary act I became convinced that it is one of the best laws ever passed by a Legislature of this State." Now he says: "The last killing at Blackville has convinced me that we can never have peace in this State so long as the dispensary law is upon the statute books. I shall, therefore, run as an anti-dispensary candidate and in favor of true Democracy." The Darlington war and the other killings had no effect in changing his mind on this subject, but the Black ville killing has convinced him that the dispensary is not true Democracy. Some people may say that Dr. Pope is not consistent. Such must remem ber that conslatency has nothing to do with politics in this latter dy. The more inconsistent a man can be, the more chance he has of success. And then as great a n'an as Emerson has said: "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do. le may as well concern himself with his shadow on the wall. Out upon . 'ur guarded lips! Sew them up with packthread, do. Else if you would be a mvn, speak what you think to-day in words as hard as cannon balls, and to-morrow wpeak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict everything you said to-day." Remember now, The Herald and News is not supporting Dr. Pope. We have no candidate yet. It looks now very much as if we will have to be a general kicker. We are not for Evans. We are opposed to the call for the con vention on the 17. We seem to stand somewhat alone. May be it is best that it is so. Newberry has two candidates for Governor, one for Rtailroad Commis sioner and one for Superintendent of Education, and one for Congress. If she were not by nature so modest there might be found within her borders a candidate for United States Senator. Spartanbunrg has a young men's busi ness league and we notice that Green ville is following in line. Why could not Newberry get up such an organiza tion. The young men might get tc gether and build a Dime Savings Bank. There is room for it here. There are many other industries and enterprises in which they might embark that would be beneficial to them and help the town. Our young men stand too much in the back ground. They should wake up and forge ahead for themselves and their town. The time has come to say something about that system of water works we are to have for Newberry. What has become of the petitions? Have they been signed by the requisite number of freeholders to get the Legislature to pass an act to authorize the issuing of bonds? It is time for us to do some Ithing. We need to wake up. In the interviews published this week The Herald and Newscaught only a few persons as we had but little time to devote to it. We found a good many persons who did not care to express themselves while others who thought this was a good time to have no views. All Democrats grant that the Democra cy should be organized or reorganized on true Democratic principles but many differ as to the time and manner in which it should be done. The Herald and News as an honest journal has ex pressed its opinion and given the reasons for the faith that is in us and we shall now await dev'elopments. SOME CONSOLING TBOUGHTS. Those candidates who may have been laboring under the delusiooa that they enjoyed- King Tillman's smile, but who are oopelessly left and find that they cannot acqvire greatness and of fice and instead of his smiles now have his frowns, may console themselves by repeating Lord Wolsey's soliloquy. We dedicate it to thbem: "So, farewell to the litle good you bear 7me! Farewell, a long farewell, to all say greatness! This is the state of man; today he puts forth The tender leaves of hope, to-morrow blos soms, And bears his blushing honors thick upon him: The third day comes a frost, a killing frost, And,-when he thinks, good easy man, full surely His greatness is arising,-nips b is root, And then he falls, as Ldo. I have veuotured Like little wanton boys that swim on blad ders, Thlis many summers in a sea of glory; But Lar beyond my depth: my hIgh blown Atpride Atlength broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to 'he mercy Of a rude stream, that must forever hide me Vain pomp, and glory of this world, I hate ye; I feel my heart new open'd: 0. how wretched Is that poor man, that hanags on princes' fa vours. There Is, betwixt that smile we would aspire to, That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin, More pangs and fears than warm or women have; And when he falls he ft-ls like Lucifer, Sever to hope again.-" To this they might add for their use in the future and as a warning and guide to their feet that other familiar quotation from the same soliloquizer: "Had I but serv'd mj God,with half 'the zeal I serv'd my King, he would not in mine age Tove left- me nakred to mine enemiest'" REV. J. S. COzBY, D. D. Our town was saddened yesterday when the announcement was made that Dr. Cozby was dead. Though not entirely unexpected yet it was a sur prise. He was greatly beloved and honored by every one in Newberry who knew him. His health has been fail ing for some time and he had gone to the mountains of Georgia to rest and in the hope of regaining his lost health, but to no avail, forat Clarksville, Ga., on Monday at two o'clock In the afternoon the summons came and he was called up higher by the Master whom he had so faithfully and earnestly and ably served while here on earth. Mrs. Cozby left on Monday in response to a telegram, but she did not reach him be fore the end came. He was born in St. Mary County, Ga., on September 1, 1837, and was therefore just 57 years old, in the prime of manhood. His parents were Rev. Jas. C. Cozby and Hannah Randolph, sturdy and pious people. He was edu cated in the schools of hlai neighbor hood and graduated at Oglethorpe Col lege, in Georgia. He completed his theological course at Columbia Theo logical Seminary and his first charge was in Bryan County, Ga., where he preached until the war came on. After this he taught school in Savannah, Ga., and remained there for several years. In 1865 he again entered the active work of the ministry in Cuthbert, Ga., where he remained for six years. Re signing this charge he moved to Sum ter County, S. C., and took charge of Mt.Zion church in 1871,remaining there for fifteen years doing most exeellent work and being much beloved by his people. He resigned his work in Sum ter to accept the call to the Newberry Presbyterian church and entered upon hts work here just eight years ago. This in brief is a glance at his work. He soon endeared himself to the peovle of our entire community and it would be injustice to io one to say that no man who has lived among us was more generally honored and respected and loved by those who knew him than was Dr. Cozby. The degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred on him by Newberry College some four years ago. He was a scholar, far above the average, modest and un assuming but with decided convictions and the manhood to maintain them. Liberal in spirit, atounding in love, thinking no evil, in controversy recog nizing the liberty of private opinion. The writer of this poor tribute knew Dr. Cozby well and knew him but to love him. His death we feel as a per sonal loss, and our sympathies are tendered the immediate family In the loss they have sustained. He was married to a Miss Law, of Savannah, Ga., who survives him. They also have four children-two daughters and two sons. The remains were brought to New berry yesterday afternoon and interred in Rosemont Cemetery. The Supreme Court will meet in extra session to-day to bear arguments in the Dispensary cases under the law of 1893. We hope the court will not delay its decision but let the people know what is what without unneces sary delay. No one will question the right to hold a convention and organiz3 the Democratic party in alignment with Democratic principles. We do not wish to be misunderstood. We think it should be done but we do not believe this is the time to do it. It is too late for this year and this campaign and too soon for the next election. The State needs to be saved from Populism but we want to save it when we under tbke the work. We have come upon a serious crisis in this State, and it is time for wise and cool heads to come to the front. He Didn't Mean It. I insist that the Editor of The Herald and News did me an injustice when he charged me -with wilfully misrepresenting the intention of The Herald and News in the local of Au gust 15th. I did not desire or intend to. do it an injury but spoke but a word of caution to a brother Democrat con cerning words which appeared to me to be imprudent. ..T UCN That being true, and we accept the statement, what The Herald and News said on the subject has no application to Mr. Duncan. Is IT THEIR BUSINESS? An English Committee in This Country to Investiga!3 Lynching-TiUman says Let Them Come Here. Governor Tillman yesterday received the following telegram: New York, Sept. 8. To Governor Tillman: An English committee has been sent here to investigate and denounce South ern Lynchings. Will you please tele graph us what you think of English medding with our affairs? The World. The Governor sent the following answer: Columbia, Sept, 8. To the World, New York: In reply to your telegram of this date would say the Englishmen are welcome to South Carolina and learn the truth. They ean't investigate us from New York. I will afford them very facility to get at facts. B. R. TILLMAN, GJovernor. Stony Batter Dots. Fodder pulling is about over and cot ton picking is in full blast. There is some comnulaint of the boll worm in and around here but so far they have done very little damage. The Prosperity Rifle company meet every Saturday evening at Mr. E. L. Hendrick's pasture and drill. Some of the Conservatives down here claim that they are not bound by the Democratic primary election simply because they did not vote a full ticket. Now brethren you are mistaken, you must either fall in line or perjure your self. Choose ye this day which you will do. Mr. R. M. Monts' school at Saluda Academy and Mi"s Joe Langford's school at Monticello closed last Friday the 7th. inst. Bedenbaugh Bros., are preparing to gin cotton at their old stand this faIl. Mr. J. L.

I have heard several voters say they would annnp-r: him in 1896 H. Dots From St. Phillips. We are busy waking up sorghum in this neighborhood. Pindar pickings are the order of the day, or night rather. Rev. Bowles is conducting a pro tracted meeting at Bachman Chapel which will close Tuesday the 11th aj instant. p Master Leland t.nd Hugh Summer, of your city, are spending a few days with the undersigned. The singing class has decided to cl have a picnic and invite a couple of speakers to address them on music; the 0 day for having the picnic has not been b decided upon. Come down, Mr. Editor, and take in the occassion. The St. Phillips missionary society t will meet Saturday afternoon. The young peoples' society of Chris tian Endeavor of which we spoke last f week seemed to "take" better with our young folks than we first antici pated. There were twenty-four re sponses to the call of the pastor for joiners. They will meet on Saturday afternoon of the 22 instant to organize. An incident occurred last Sunday evining just after services at the well which has recently been bored on the school ground. A host of young folks including a few other individuals who should become honorary members of the Y. P. S. C. E. surrounded the well and patiently waited until the only dipper procurable could be passed from mouth to mouth. Now it soon came the turn of Miss Vanity Fair to drink, which she attempted to do in as quiet a way as possible, but Mr. Cleaer Knight who happened to be standing near seeing the lady's hat and dipper handle collide heroically commenced pushing the hat to the rear regardless of the presence or efro ts of a hat pin located thereabouts when, much to the amusement of the crowd and to the surprise of our kind and accomodating friend, the lady's thirst suddenly became quenched, and with the remaining water-whieb was a good deal. She proceeded to quenCb his by dashing most of it in his mouth though lots of it landed on the surrounding premises and served another purpose, and then the under signed yielded to a weakness which he has no more power of controlling than he has of Wall street-laughing. The cotton crop is somewhat short and the price at which that staple is selling ] is still shorter. Why don't it go up? Well we believe it has gone up in one sense-"up the spout" as the saying goes-but we mean why can't we get more money per pound for our cotton. Is it ever-production? if you think so t please investigate our patch, for in- t stance, and be convinced that you are wrong. There has never been an over production of any crop that is benefi- I cial to man. If there has will some one name it. Now what is the cause of the "hard J times" under which the laboring e classes are the greatest sufferers? Is it because they pay too much attention to politics and consequently regret E their work? We answer emphatically, i No! They do pay more attention to politics of late than they used to be cause they have realized at last that it e is their right as citizens to educate themselves politically so as to vote in telligently and according to their duty J to themselves and their posterity in 1 accordance with the law of self-preser vation with which nature has endowed every livirg creature. f .Do not the white people of the South work harder and live more economically to-day than any preceding generatIon, t and are they not financially worse ofi than they have been since the war?!Then what is the matter? Every old farmer will tell you that it takes harder work .t to get a living out of his farm now than i it did twenty or thirty years ago,4 which proves that it is not for lacks of energy that hard times prevail. We c do not raise any more cotton now than i we used to when we got three times as much for it, which knocks over-pro- I duction in the bead. Then what's wrong? The farmers on whose shoulders rests the founda tion of all wealth are just as Indus trious as they ever were, yet they can't make enough money to support their families without going in debt, which means that there is no money in circu lation. Then it certainly must be un wise or unjust circulation (National legislation of course), and the sooner the evil is removed the better for the laboring classes; and the only banner which those classes can look to for help is the banner of Reform. Yet there are hundreds and thousands of 'oor farmers all over the State who kick and :snort at theReform movement just because they started out that way, There are others who fight it as they would a viper without being able to assign any reasen for so doing. Then there are others who have succumbed to the influence of some rich acquaint ance. Poor, deluded creatures! How long will they continue to draw the, loop tighter around their own necks and to resist the only movement that can give them financial relief? We want to know. JosH TRUMP. Sept. 10th, 1894.
