BACHMAN CHAPEL LETTEK.
All the Newa Around Rachnan Chapel and
Union Academy Interestingly
Told by T. J. W.
Here goes for the conclusion of our
Tuesday's letter.
I wanted to say something about o-ir
trip to Long Lane. You have often
heard that "it's a long lane that has no
turn." But that Long Lane, the same
as all other lanes, has a turn, and we
struck that turn last Saturday at the
home of our friend and cousin, Calvin
K. Baker. Mrs. W. and our oldest
daughter and son-in-law, W. W. Ki
nard, were in company with us. We
divided at Mr. Baker's, Mr. and Mrs.
Kinard going to Mr. S. A. Rikard's,
while we stopped over with Mr. Baker
and kind family. We enjoyed their
hospitality for a few hours. Mr. Baker
is a hustling farmer and is making good
money out of his farm. From here we
went over to Mr. Thomas W. McCul
lough's and spent the night, which we
most heartily enjoyed. This is another
kind family who lives and boards at the
same place, and their hospitality is far
beyond the ordinary. But our time was
limited and we had several birds to kill
with the same stone, so we had to keep
rolling. About nine o'clock we went
back to Mr. S. A. Rikard's and J. H.
Kibler's and took dinner. It is need
less for us to say we enjoyed a few
hours here, for these are not only our
friends and kinfolks, but have been our
neighbors for a number of years. We
met Mr. R. E. Hunter who lives here
and who has also been our neighbor.
In short the trip was a very pleasant
one to us, and we were sorry that our
stay could not have been longer. This
is a progressive section of country.
The land is level and also very fertile.
The crops throughout this section show
that there has been no lack on the part
of cultivation, and the prospect for a
good yield is quite promising. Alto
gether Long Lane is not only a good
section of country, but is populated
with a good people.
OTHER MATTERS.
We are needing rain at this writing.
Crops are on the eve of going back.
It may be seen since our people have
finished laying by that they are on the
go, and possibly I may not be able to
keep up with them; if I skip any one of
them I hope they won't feel slighted.
"Polly Tics'' are getting pretty warm
and the boys are busy now fixing up
their tickets.
Sidney Summers, better known while
in this country as Jack, came out from
Atlanta a few days ago and is spend
ing a while with his uncle and family,
Mr. L. I. Feagle.
We were glad to have our teacher,
Miss Cora Dominick and Miss Rosa Long
with us last night. Come again, young
ladies, we are-glad to have you with us.
Mrs. Thos. L. B. Epps and children
spent a part of last week with her pa
rents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Kibler, of
Long Lane.
Messrs. Walter Sheeley and Abney
Walters, of Longshore's, made a flying
visit to Mr. J. K. Epps' last Sunday.
Mr. and Mrs. Jno. Taylor of Stoney
Battery spent last Saturday with their
son and family, Mr. R. N. Taylor.
Little Curtis and sisters, Maybell and
Estell Rikard, of Long Lane section, are
spending the week with us.
Mr. J. R. Perdue, of Utopia, spent
Tuesday night with us. Mr. Perdue's
company is always very interesting and
we are glad to have him with us.
Our daughter and son, Miss Carrie
and Joseph, will go over in the Long
Lane section this evening. Miss Carrie
will stay over a week with relatives,
while Joseph will return in the morr.
ing.
Quite a crowd of young folks met at
our house last night and gave us some
very fine music which we always enjoy
very much. Thank you, young friends,
come again.
We enjoyed a fine 'possom dinner
with the family of Mr. J. K. Epps yes
terday.
We intend visiting our old friend,
Push, tomorrow, and partake of those
fine melons and grapes.
Messrs. Nolan Epps and George I.
Kinard are visiting over in Saluda
County.
There will be a meeting of the pat
rons of Union Academy on Saturday
morning next at seven o'clock, for the
purpose of taking into consideration the
question of an exhibition of the school.
Wehope the patrons will all turn out.
I should have stated that Miss Docia
Epps is in company with Miss Ckrrie
Wilson on her visit in the Long Lane
section.
We hope the reading public- will bear
with us for having so much to say in
this letter. We have about unloaded,
and will promise not to be so lengthy
in our next communications.
Very respectfully, T. J. W.

18 Ir A PIEMIUM ON LACK OF THRIFr ?
The Newberry Herald says:
"In the matter of the artificial arm
fund which was intended only for the
maimed Confederates who are unable
to purchase the limbs, we notice com
plaint that several who are amply able
to buy artificial limbs have accepted
the small allowance. That is the trou
ble with the pensions. Only those who
really need the help was the intention
of the law."
In our opinion the artificial limbs
should be given to every Confederate
soldier who lost a limb. The State
should not offer a premium for thrift
lessness, which the Herald seems to in
dicate.
Viewing the matter from our stand
point, the whole pension law would re
quire a brave and gallant old soldier to
eat a lot of dirt before giving him a
pension.
But when it comes to artificial limbs
every unfortunate should fare alike,
whether he has a dime or a dollar to
his credit.-Abbeville Press and Banner.
According -to our cotemporary the
proper course for the State to pursue
would be to give a pension to every
Confederate soldier regardless of his
circumstances. To this we would sub
scribe if the State were able. But we
are not, and the next best thing we can
do is to give help to those who are in
need of our help. And when this is
done there is no desire or intention to
cause any one to "eat dirt." Neither
is it meant to be a "premium on thrift
lessness." We are not all blessed with
riches, and some who are not may be
just as industrious and deserving as
those who are in better circumstances.
The poor man made just as good sol
dier in the cause as the rich man, and
sometimes a better one. Honest pov
erty is no disgrace. It frequently hap
pens that as brave a heart beats be
neath a homespun shirt as beneath fine
linen. In fact true patriotism is more
frequently found in the humble cottage
of the poor than in the mansions of the
rich. The appropriations of this State
to Confederate soldiers were meant to
help those who really needed it rather
than to help those who were able to
help themselves, and in this it was not
intended to say or to intimate that the
more thrifty were not just as true and
as brave as the needy, and no true sol
dier will object to helping his less fa
vored brother who needs his help, and
in doing this he would not for a moment
say anything to humiliate. It no doubt
happens that sometimes pensions are
drawn from the State by those who do
not really need the help of the State,
but better this than that some brave
Confederate soldier should be forced to
take up his abode in the county home,
as has~ been the case in some of our
counties. The same rule should apply
to the limb fund that applies to the
pensiofn fund. A people who do not
have a reverence as it were for the
past, and a desire to honor and care for
those who helped to make the history
can never achieve greatness. As long
as there is a Confederate soldier who
needs the help of the State let it be
given, and nio brave man who took part
in that struggle will raise his voice
against helping his needy brother be
cause he has been more favored and
does not need that help.
O4luY & ,UGGESTI4N,
We would like to make a sugges
tion to the superintendent and the
comminssieners of public works that
there are a great many people
who believe that the water hydrants'
should be flushed occasionally. The
superintendent told us the other day
when we mentioned the matter to him
that it would do no good, that even if
the water in the dydrants was stag
nant and impure, it could not possibly
effect the water in the mains. That
may be true in theory, but it would be
difficult to convince most people that it
would be safe to use water from the
mains if the hydrants had poison in
them. Stagnant water is impure and
in many sections we are told the water
even gets to smelling bad. It would
not take a great deal of water to flush
the hydrants occasionally, and if it
would contribute to the health of the
city the time and the water would be
well spent.
Another suggestion which if carried
out would contribute largely to the
comfort, if not to the health of the
community, is to have the streets which
have been recently torn up foa the
sewers, sprinkled with water. The
flushing of the hydrants and the water
ing of the streets could both be done at
the same time. In many places the
streets are several inches deep with a
fine dust which to inhale must be un
healthy. If not it is at least very dis
agreeable. These are only suggestions,
but there are many suffering human
beings in the city who would be glad
to see the proper authorities act upon
them and act promptly. Certain1y
neither one could do any harm. The
water works belong to the people and
certainly the people are due some little
consideration.
The State newspaper is evidently
not pleased with the candidates for the
Legislature from Newberry county. It
is a great pity these unfortuanates for
got or overlooked the importance of
consulting this newspaper before daring
to offer themselves to the people. The
editor of The Hferaid and News does
not expect the State newspaper to look
with favor upon anything he does or
says and to tell the plain truth we do
not care wl-ether it does or not. The
editor of the State newspaper was
nver known to be fair or just or to see
any good in anything which was not his
way, nor in anybody who dared not to
agre with him.
