ERT H. AULL, P. HOUSE&L, Proprietors. BERT H. AULL. rITr. PARTNERSHIP DISSOLVED. b y. mutual agreement and with the best of good will existing between the parties concerned, the partnership heretofore ex isting between Elbert H. Aull and Wm. P. Houseal, under the firm name of Aull & Houseal, has been dissolved. The Herald and News and the job printing department will be conducted by Mr. E. H. Aul, while Mr. Houseal will give his time and attention to The Lu theran Visitor. We will continue business in the same office and hope to be mutually beneficial to each other. Debts due the firm for job printing and advertising accounts will be paid to E. H. Aull, while persons owing for advertising in The Visitor and for subscriptions to the same will make payment to Wm. P. 'Houseal. Persons holding claims against the firm will present the same to E. H. Aull. Our partnership of eight years has been most pleasant, and there has been no friction between us to mar a contempla t-^n-a-the past and the hard work that has marked our business connection. We will still in a sense be together, but the two papers have so grown that each re quires the constant attention of one man. Mr. Houseal wdl still be in the office and The Herald and News is better prepared than ever before to do first class job print ing in firstelass style and with greater dis patch than heretofore. There will be no change in the policy of the paper. The Herald and News during the past4eight years has grown from a circulation of 600 to more than double that number, and, we believe, is more firmly planted in the good will of the peopla of Newberry County than everbeforoin its history. Our constant effort in the future shall be to give the people of this county a clean newspaper, and one that they can heartily support. We ask your sympathy and co-operation in this effort. The Herald and News has not beenin the past, nor will it be in the re. any man's organ, but will be free to express the honest convictions of its editor on all public questions withont fear or favor. If we know the people of New berry County, this is the kind of news paper they want, for they are an honest and independent people, and they admire those qualities in others. The editor of this paper is proud to say that ht is one of you, born, reared,and educated in your midst, and has labored in your midst for your weal for a dozen years. His best efforts will be given to you in the future having in view the same end. This is a timein which we must all pull together for our mutual uplifting. To accomplish this purposs,you can always rely upon, or call upon, Tne Herald and News and its editor, and you will always receive a ready and cheerful response. Josh Trump could in no sense be con sidered by us an aneuymnous scribbler, for we know who he is, and in writing the little paragraph which he took to himself we never had him or his article in mind. We do not care to discuss with him further the achievements of refofor what is done is done, and ~ t will not remedy matters. Our purpose i 0 unite the white peo ple, and we can ne or accomplish this by constantly rubbTng o - oe.W are willing to grant him the~ - sy We.could show that so far ss being practical benefit to the masses of the people reform has not been a howling success, even with all the achieve ments enumerated by Gov. Tillman in his farewell address, but no good would result, for every .one would be of the same opinion still. The best thing to do is to let every one hold whatever opinion he may desire as to the past and as to the success of reform without trying to change his opinmon, and to deal with the things of the present and prepare to meet the issues of the future as they present themselves. Now, Josh, old boyg, we hope you understand the-position of The Herald and News. The paragraph that you thought was for you had no reference to you what ever. Now, really, do you not think you were too hasty in reaching a con clusion, and that you did The Herald and News an injustice? But never mind. Let us go to work for the future. The office of Attorner-General during the days of reform has been a very lucky one. From it four judges have been evolved. Justice Pope who was the first Attorney-General was made Associate Justice of the Supreme Court and his assistant, D. A. Townsed, afterwards Attorney-General, was made Judge of the Seventh Circuit to succeed Judge Wallace. Mr. O.W. Buchauan, assistant to Mr. Townsend, and afterwards At torney-General, has been made Judge of the Third Circuit. Then there is Attorney-General Earle, who held the office under the old ring made Judge of the Eighth Circuit. Mr. McLaurin, who held the office elevated to Con gress. All the Attorney-Generals for the past four years have been given good and better jot's. Better fortune has attended this office than any other except that of Governor. This is one way of having rotation in offices and just as well these gentlemen as any other. We publish this week an address signed by forty reform members of the Legislature and others asking that the delegates elected to the constitutional convention be non partisan and that in this matter we select our best and ablest men regardless of factional difference. This has been the position of The Berald and News for a long time and we are delighted to see these leading re formners taking this same stand. As we have remarked before this constitu tional convention is a very important matter and we need there our best material. We ask you this weeek to read this address. We shall have more to say along this line again. It is a healthy sign of the times to see these leading reformErs willing to admit that it was time for thinking people to get together. We have all along had a strong faith in the good sense and con servatisue of the people. They will get right if you just give them time. Hon. Jno. T. Duncan has been ap pointed Chief Clerk in the Secretary of Stae nofie ysecretary Tompkins. r GOV. EVANS. It is now Gov. Evans, and ex Gov Tillman. The change was made las week. Gov. Tillman will not remait in private life long for before thi reacbes our readers he will have beer eleeted United States Senator to sue ceed Senator Butler. We publish this week Gov. Evans inaugural address. We commend i for its conservative tone, and the senti ments it expresses reflect credit upot him. We trust that be may keep th< pace be has set and let factional bitter nes and factional strife be a thing apar from his administration and be it reality the Governor of all the people As we stated some time ago he hac the opportunity to make a name .nd a record for himself that come to but iev men. There is a spirit and a feeling among the people that there is no usE to keep up the strife of the past few years and that it is folly for the whitc people to be divided as they have been Our interests are common and thiE warfare on one another is suicidal. WE can get together without the sacrifice of principle and we must get together Gov. Evans can d( much to this end and The Herald and News proposes t< hold up his hands in all efforts to ac complish this purpose and instead of constantly seeking something wit: which to find fault in his administra tion we propose rather to seek some. thing to commend. This proposition in the address of Gov. Evans is fair and The Herald and News joics him beartily in it: "I say here and now upon the threshold of my administration to those who oppose me, 'Come let us room together.' There is no reason in Socth Carolina for divided hearts" * * * "We cannot compromise principle, we will not sur render our birthright and we must make the best of our surrounding cir cumstances. Let us then in aojusting our differences remember that we are South Carolinians and the only plane upon which wecan meet is thatof equal ity, guided by wisdom, justice and mod eration." That is fair enough. Now let Gov. Evans live up to the sentiments here expressed and all will be well. lie will have enough of the really conserv ative men of the State to hold up his hands to make the few extreme men of all factions so ashamed of themselves that they will not make much noise or if they do noise w111 be about all they can make. We have not space to review the en tire address but we are one of those who do no not belitve that it is too late to have the white people reunited, working for the common good of the State. Now that Tillman has been re moved from State politics as an active factor we desire to hearno mo?e of anti Tillman and Tillmanite. We should also abolish the appellations of reform ers and conservatives and let all the really conservative people of theState go to work for genuine reform and the up building of the material interests of the State and for the happiness and pros perity of all the people. This shall be the purpose of The Herald and News and in our criticisms of public men and measures we shall always have these purposes in view, forgetting the past divisions of our people. In doing this we do not propose to surrender any principles for which he have contended nor do we ask or expect anyone else to do so. But there is no use or sense in constant bickering. We should grasp the opportunities of the present and look with hope to tbe future with an -ngle to the good of South Caroli na. Evans has the opp ... nity that eome to er*' ~and we hope he will rise to the position and demon strate that he is a true son of Carolina and a patriot and thus be a pleasant disappointment to his enemies and a gratification to his friends. We ask you to read his inaugural. The Herald and News has taken no sort of concern in the charges and ru mors about Gov. Tiliman having made money out of the rebates and having since his term of office become sudden ly wealthy and having lifted a number of big mortgages. it is a very easy matter to suspect peeple of wrough do ing and to make some people believe it in others when they naturally desire to. We have'never been an admirer o1 Gov. Tillman's political methods, but we have always tried to be fair to him and we have always believed that his private character was above reproach and that he was an honest man in mat ters of money and t usiness. The charges of B. F. Perrry have brought out this fact that he has received ce rebates and still has some mortgage -on his farm. We are glad the facts have been brough out A prominent reformer from No. i told us the other day that three of his men for de'egates to the constitutional convention, were, Geo. S. Mower, Geo. B. Cromer and J. A. Sligh, and thai these men had been centered on by oters in that section and would re ceive the support of the people of his section without reference to past. dif ferences. That is alright. T!hat ticket will suit us. WVe will need one more good man, but he will not be hard tc fid. We will need to send our best and coolest and clearest thinkers tc this convention. It is a very imipor tat nsatter. So far us we have been able to observe The Herald and News was the only county paper in the State that pub lished the fti text of the annual mes sage of Gcjv. Till man to the Legishiture. Most of them bad synopses but not the full text. This week we give you the inaugural of Gov. Evans and President Cleve land's annual message to Congress. Il you want all the news and an impar tial presentation of it The Herald and News is the paper you are looking for A bill has passed the House to extend the time for paying taxes to the 10ti of March. The bill means well for the people but will they be in any bettel condition to pay taxes in March that they are now. Those who are best able to pay taxes now will be the ones as s rule, who will be most benetited by the extension for they are nearly always the last ones to pay. Yesterday E<x- Governor Tillman was elected United States Senator by the Legislature, receiving 131 votes on the firt ballot PHE NEWBERRY ] So we are really to have a metro politan police bill. Such an extreme t measure will not help to promote the k aims and purposes set forth in the cal issued last week by the forty wh( claim to desire peace and a cessatior - of strife and bitterness. Such a bill is a direct blow at local self governmen which is one of the fundamental prin ciples upon which our government rests. If those forty are in earnest in their appeal for harmony aud peace they will pernit no such extreme and radical measure as this to become law If, as Gov. Evans claims, 8:5 per cent. have the dispensary imbedded in their hearts, there is no need for such ex treme measures to secure its enforce ment. If it has. not the moral sup port of the people no such extreme laws will secure its enforcement. In addition to this from what we have heard, blind tigers flourish in the outlying country di-tricts as well as it the towns and cities. We hope, for the peace of the State, no such bill will be. come law. THE LEGISLATURE. The Temporary Retirement or Tillmart-The Inauguration of Evans-Some of the Important Work Proposed. [Special Herald and News.1 COLUMBIA, S. C., December 10th, 1894.-Tbe past week can be consid ered as the close of an epoch in the history of South Carolina. The ad ministration of Governor B. R. Till man came to an end after two terms, four years, probably the most remark able that have ever been seen in the State. THE BEST LOVED AND WORST HATED. He left office, as he took it, the best loved by some, and the worst hated by others, wan in the&State. Whatever else can be said, it will have to be admitted that Ben. Tillman has made an im pression on the body politic in South Carolina that will be well nigh indelli ble. It can also be said of his work that like others of similar nature, it was a revolution, and revolutions oever go backwards. More good than evil can be expected to come out of what he has done. He probably is as strong in the State as he was four years ago, and as he moves about the capital, as a private citizen, preparing to move to his home in Edgefield County, it can be readily seen that he is regarded by all as a man of com.nanding ability. In personal appearance he is more possessing than he was four years ago, and t be cares of office have dealt gently with him. There are a few gray hairs in his head, but he looks to be a man in the prime of all of his powers, both physical and mental. WILL BE SORELY MISSED. When he leaves Columbia he will be sorely missed by the newspaper men, for to them he has been an unfailing source of news. When news was to be gotten from no other source, Gov ernor Tillwan could be depended upon to furnish something that every one in the State, and frequently many out side of the State would read. He leaves warm friends with the reporters generally, whom he always treated kindly and with frankness. From ob servation it can not, be said that he will be missed in Columbia social life, for the Governor has been too much a man of affairs to care mueb for social. life during his residence here, and he and the Columbia people have as a rule "hoed their own rows" without in terfering with one another much. The epoch written of, closed on Tues day, when Governor John Gary Evans assumed the reigns of government. His inaugural speech was well received in Columbia, and the public generally were much gratified at its moderation and freedom from bitterness. The opinionl is freely ex pressed that if he is dealt with fairly that he will make a Governor of the wole ,.,ie,and that there w' o no repetition of the didt auce so frequent since 1890. GOV. EVANS BUSY LEARNING THE EOPES. Since his induction into office, Gov ernor Evans has been' busy learning the ropes, so to speak, and becoming acquainted with all the duties assumed that he has had little time for the gen. eral public to observe him. He takes to his work well, and one would take him to be an old hand at it, for matters are moving as smoothly in the Gover nor's office as if there had been nc change. Governor Evans has a very competent secretary in the person ol Mr.~U. X. Gunter, of Aiken, who does much towards the proper conduct of the work. It goes without saying that Governor Evans is fiooded with applications foi positions oIf all kinds. One man has gone so far as to ask to be appointed postmaster of the town in which he lives. The Governor will take his time in makiug his appointments. Next to the inauguration of Governi Evans, the maLter of most interest was the election of the two judges, of the third and eighth circuits, and the elec tion of the Attorney General to suce eed Mr. Buchanan.. THE ELECTION OF JUDGES. It had been understood that Attor ney General Buchanan wvould be Judge Frazer's successor, i-i the Third Cir cuit for some time, atnd, in fact, it was not known positively until the day o1 the election whether he would have any opposition3. The vote was Buch anlan 12.5, Frazer 29. Judge Buchanau is from Winnsboro, and consequently will have to change his residence t' some point within hmis circuit. He has not yet decided whether he will go tc Sumter or Manning. He received at official invitation from Mayor Hersey, and the city council of Florence tc make his home in their town, but for private reasons 1 e is inclined towards the first named places. The race for the judgeship of the eighth circuit was a lit tle more spirited. The result of the first ballot resulted Joseph H. Earle 78, John E. Breaz9ale 53, Norton 27. The second ballot Earle 100, B3reazeale 49 and Nortor 8. Gen. Earle was declared elected. This election was considered to be s harbinger of good feeling and an indi cation that the mass of the people ol the State were ready to come undez one banner again. Gen. Earle whc had opposed Gov. Tillman in 189( ad beaten Mr. Breazeale, whr bad been a "Reformer" from the beginning. As in all other eled tions, Governor Tillman, in this, was "ands off", and so was Governed Evans, as far as the public know, but some of Mr. Breazeale's friends claimi that Geni. Earle owes his election tc Senator Irby's influence. OTHER ELECTPIoNS. The election of Mr. WV. A. Barber tc be Attorney General to succeed Judge Buchanan, completes the trio of the you ngest men that have ever held State offices in South Carolina. Governox Evans is thirty-one years old, Adjutant General Watts twenty-five, and At. torney General Barber twenty-five to day. Solicitor G. Duncan Bellinger, of'Barnwell, opposed Attorney Gen eral Barber for the place but was de. feated by a vote of 99 to 58. The election of a superintendent of the penitentiary was another matter of importance, but over which there was no contest. Indeed, a man would have had to have great assurance to oppose Supeintendent Neal for that position after the- showing he made last year. The Richland delegation paid him a handsome compliment through its spokesman, in seconding his nomina -in tion. JERALD AND XEM AN ADDRESS WHICH IS PIGNIFICANT. Besides the election of Judpe Earle, another matter that is signiCeant as itidicative .of the movement of the times was the adddre-s which was issued by forty members of the Gener all Asembly on Thursday. This, address, pithily put, asked tiat the past be forgotten and that all.overs of the State unite in th -. future aid work for the best interests of Lhe State. It was uell received in Columbia, among many who have been "antis" and general opinion is that it will do much goad. GETTING DOWN TO BUSIXESS. The inauguration and the number of elections have interfered withthe legis lative work of the General Assembly, and it can hardly be said that the most important matters that will be voted upon at this session have seen the light of day yet. Oue matter of far reaching impor tance, over which there was a great fight, and which was killed in the House by a vote of 55 to 54, was the reduction of the legal rateof iiterest to 7 per cent. The rate will remain the same, as it has been for the past few years. Another bill which will result in a great saving to the State, if it is passed by the Senate, is the reduction of the per diem allowed sheriffs for dieting State prisoners from 30 cents to 2.5 cents. Charl--ston and Berkeley counties were exempted from the ef fects of this bill. Charleston gets the old rate, and Berkel-y has a special act, whereby the County Commissioners feed the prisoners, and the cost has been found not to exceed twelve and one half cents a day. CUTTING DOWN SALARIES. The House seems intentupon cutting down salaries this year. The bill pro viding for a reduction of the liq,uor Commissioner's salary from $3.000 to $2,000 has been passed, and one cutting down the salaries of all State officers has been reported favorably. SOME IPORTANT LEGISLATION. A bill pr.,viding for a division of the profits of the dispensary one fourth to. the town or city in which the dispen sary is located, and three fourths to the public schools has been made a special order in the House for Tuesday, Dec. 11th. The bill compelling railroads in this State to furnish separate coaches for white and colored passengers will also come up Tuesday. The bill requir iog all persons or corporations build ing a wire fence along a public or pri vate highway, parallel with a railroad track to nail a board near the top was made a special order for Wednes day. The bill prohibiting the hiring out of convicts has received an unfavorable report from the committee, but has not yet come up for discussion in the House. A bill providing for the licensing of the sale of intoxicating !iquors in the State received an unfavorable report from the committee and will probably be killed assoon as itappears in the House. Among other bills to come up for dis cussion in the House soon are: the Australian ballot system; to prevent the pooling of rates by fire insurance companies; to authorize grain distillers to organize stock companies to whole sale the product of its members; to pro vide for the election of a State Liquor Commissioner by the General Assemb ly instead of allowing the Governor to appoint him; to make the Hon. B. R. Tillm-an a Trustee of the Winthrop Normal and Industrial College. The House has passed a bill requiring cotton buyers to number each bale of cotton purchased the same number put upon the books and bills; to make the use of profane or obscene language or intoxication a misdemeanor. NO METIIOPOLITAN POLICf K No bill has yet made its. - pearance in either house, but or is eNpected before the close of..Xhe session. Its passage is doubtf -. So much good feeling has cha trized the session so far that itw take a decided change to cause factional lines to he drawn severely'enough to pass such a bill, -if one is p ssed it is expected that Char leston yvill be put under its protection, and ssibly other places in the State. aNTENDING TIME FOR PAYING TAXES. Mr. Thurmond of .Edgefield, has in troduced into the House a bill extend ing the time for the payment of taxes to March I0th. The probabilities are that this bill will be passed, or one of similar nature. AFFER THE CITADEL. A bill that brings out something of a fight, especially from the Charleston delegation is one to abolish the Citadei Academy, and to convert the property of the same into money to be placed in the hands of the Sinking Fund. This bill was introduced by Mr. L. J. Wil liams, of Edgefield. The bigl is not ex pected to pass, but it may save thbe re sult of cutting down the appropriation to thatitnstittioi'n. It is understood that the Board of Visitors of the Citadel will recomnmend the appropriation of only $150 to each beneficiary, but will ask that the number of beneficiaries be doubled. The time for the election of United States Senator has been fixed for to morrow. A t this writing it is not known whether Senator Butler will be nominated or not. So far as can be learned he has engaged no one to nomi nate him. What would be designated as the "anti'" members of the General Assembly do not seem to be en thusiastic on the subject. It goes withbout saying that Ex-Governor Trillhnan will be elected by an overwhelming majority. NO NEW COUNTIES THIS YEAR. All new county bills have been post poned until the next session. This was done because of the calling of the Con stitutional Con vent ien, wbich will probably lessen the required territory of a county. The friends of the proposed county of Greenwood have been in the city in full force, and were determined to mal.e a strong tight for;their pet mes sure, if it hadl been allowed to come up. The friends of Honea Path County seem to be numerous, and thbe counties from which that is to be formed do not tight so bitterly as Greenwood County is fought. The Senate has not been so active am the House during the past week. It has been taking things quietly, conscious tat when it does get to work it can accomplish very much more in the same space of time than the House. PROVIDING FOR THE CONSTITUTIONAL CON vENTION. The bill providing for the calling of the Constitutional Convention has been introduced ini the Senate by Senator Eird, of Lexington. This bill, with b few am,endments, will probably go tbrough. It provides for the election of delegates to the Convention on the third Tuesday in July, and for the meeting of the Convention in August. It. also provides for the participation of all voters in the election of delegates, who are not prohibited by the Constitu tion. It allows all who are eligible to register, and who have fai:ed to do so, to re-gister. This provides against any psieadverse decision by the Su pree Curtco the present registration law. It apnropriates $30,000 with whbich to pay the expenses of the Convention, if so mueh be necessary, and provides for the payment of $2 a day and five cents mileage going and returning to the delegates to the Convention. A number of bills of local importance have been passed by the Senate, and it has now matters in such shape that it can work with despatch. It is now expected that this session will be a very long one, and a bill has been drawn pro'.iding for the adjourn ment to take place on December 22nd. J. WILSox GIBBES. R. C.
