E. H. AULL. EDITOR. EDITORIAL COICIHESPONDENU.. Columbia, March 5.-The date.ar the Press trip to Cuba has been changed to the 14th March instead of the 18th, so that the party will not, leave on Sunday nor will we be forced to travel on Sun day either going or returning. After a little more careful study of the sched ules, I found we could make this change and make the trip in about the same time. I did not, like the idea of start ing al excursion off on Sunday, and then we have member, who are more scrupulous on the subject than I am, and their opinions are worth consider ing, and I am glad that I have been able to make the change. Then, too, this will give the party an opportunity to see life in Havana on the Sabbath and those who have been there say this is worth considerint. The date now is positively fixed and there will be no other changes. The party will leave Columbia on the 14th at 1.25 a. m. and reach Havana on the 15th at 3 p. in. We will leave Havana on the 20th and reach Columbia on the return trip on the 21st, at 6 a. m. Those who desi"e to go had better notify me not later than the 8th. Commissioner F. 1-.

All the above are merely reappoint ments save that of Mr. )ixson as su perintendent. Mr. Dixson, who was once before the superintendent, suc ceeds Mr. Bryant of Pickens County, who has held the position for sone time. Mr. Yeldell has not yet been re appointed a bockkeeper, pending the settlement of the legal question as to his relationship to Mr. Williams, the new chairman of the State board. Then there are some inspectors to be appointed. * * I have made arrangements with Mr. N. 0. Pyles, an old newspaper man, and who has been for several years mail clerk to one branch or the other of the General Assembly, to make i thorough canvas of Newberry County for The Herald and News. He Is a very pleas ant and agreeable gentleman and withal very modest, but he will be able to tell you his business, and I want all of the subscribers to be ready to make some sort of settlement with him when he calls. The subscription list must be overhauled. I want to get rid of these old accounts for back dues on subserip tions and start anew. If you are far behind and really can't pay say so and let the account, be thrown in the fire and start afresh, and then keep upl. Printing papler Is still going upl and we must at least get enough I reom each sub scriber to pay for the paper and ink we usne if there Is nothing with which to pay the printer. Now, when Mr. P1yles comes be ready to give hint a cordial greet,ing and a hearty welcome and I will appreciate it as a personal favor. If you can't settle up, make seome aor't of a compromise-anything that stilts -you and that you tbink Is fair and hou est and juist to yourself as welil as to me. I don't want to part with any of my friends, but you must realize that it .takes cash and lots of it to print a good paper twice a week. Do what you can for us, and lets get straight before the new century comes in and while cotton ja selling at 9 cents and before It reaches ten cents. M r. Py les will start on hisarounds in a few days. * * * .*T. 3 Rock 1Hil1 Herald is given credit for the following on the fellow who promised to ipay for his paper and didn't,: "Last week a delinquent subscriber said he would pay up if he lived, lHe died. .Another said: 'I will see you to morrow.' do's blind. St,ill another said: 'I will pay ou this week or go to the devil.' He s gone. There are hundreds who ought to take warning by these procrastinators and: pay up now." I hope none of the subscribers of The Herald and News who didn't, will meet the fate of any of these here enumer ated. But we need money and a lit,tle --just a Ilittle-fromn each delinquient will, help The Herald and News very much just now. Do the best you can for us-angels could do no more. * * Speaking about cotton I hope our farmers will not be fooled into plowing up their wheat and oats and cutting their corn crop short by the advance In the price of cotton. Raise all you need on the farm first and then all the cotton you can regardless of the price, if you want to be happy and independent. And that is a good way to) keep the price up. *,* I was in Newberry on Saturday after noon and everything had the appear aneof an old time November saleday, dhly the merchants were more busy, While this may be good- for the lien nteobant, who has extra good ecurity, Iam-afraid it means .no good for our f'er . The farme~rs of this country 099n ne he bappy and prosperous and '~q~odent . lontg ga. their moat ~ot1esd4 o14oribs and hay barns S A n tpra ftheo iea!oants who yet planted. The banks, as well as the merchants, were doing a rushing bnsi ness, loaning money to be paid out, of a crop not even planted. We It-t he rid of this everlasting credit systerm before our country will be on a basis of solid and substantial prosperity. We have noquarrel with the lien inerchant. le is in many cases a benefactor, for without him in the preser.t condition of many of our farmers, they woutll h unable to make a crop at. all. Our yuar rel is rather with the farmer, who should be independent. to permit him self to be placed in this helpless and de pendent, condition. ** * It looks now that cotton will go to ten cents. It is already 9) cents. The danger is that our farmers will be fool ed into planting a large crop on a se-tile expecting to receive ten cents for it. It Is far better to pitch your crop and make It with thle explectation of not, getting more than sevE'n cent- atn( be glad to get that.

If it is tr'ue it reveals a fearful state of affairs. Washington, Feb. 25-(Special to the World)-A request, recentLly received at the wvar department fromGeon. Ot,is, at ManIla, for 1,000 paire of handcuffs and 200 pairs of leg shiackles, to be sent at the earliest possible moment, has puzzled the officials. It first was thought that they mIght be intended for use on captured Insur gent,s, but as there has been no latge capttures recetitly, and as all repor.e agree that the fierce insurgents become very docile when they fal lito the bands of the Americans, this theory was immediately abandoned. It Is now revealed that the handcuffs and shackles are for use on our own soldiers, especially for the large numn ber whose reason has given way under the heat and stress of war, and who have to be handcuffed and sometimes shackled to prevent them from escaping or doling themselves bodily injury. Another lot of insanA soldiers is now an the way to Washington from San thianoisco, to join the growing colony of their;comradesoconfined at St. ElIza both'. the govern ment. *asylum for the Insane; An 'employee of the surgeon geeeral's office, who has just returned from Ma-. oils, e*M' that the percnnaofsn. ity amton the troops serving in the Philiippim-"4 is alarming, and that those who reach ihis county are only -the most agTgravated (.ttses.
