LEE'S MONUMENT. The feeling which still exists in the North against the South ani its herots of the Civil War is clearly shown in the spirit of the opposition to a Bill rtent ly iutxiuctdi n the Pennsylvania Lep islature "to provide a commission and appropriat ion to ereot, in o-operation wth the State of Virginia. an eques trian st. feue of General Robert E. ILe on the battlefield of Gettysburg." Though the Bill was introduced by a Mr. Cooper. its real author is Col. A. K. Mc'Clure. who was for many years edi tor of the Philadelphia Times, and who himself a 'nion veteran. T'he Bill was vigorously and bitterly opposed. and the South deeply regrets that it was ever intlxkiucei. We recog ni:.e the fact that Col. McClure was act uated by none save the purest motives. and that his sole purpotse was to give the South and her great chieftain the same place on the field of Gettysburg which they occupied when it was swept by shot and shell. and when brave men faced t heir brot hers for a cause each believed to be just. But we dis!ike very much to see the name of Lee so placed that an opportunity is given to very small men to sneer at the memory of a great man and 1o show their shallow minds. We would be very much pleased if there were a statue of I ee at Gettys burg, and one worthy of the cause which it commemorates. But there is need of none. I ee's greatest mont, ment is the deep love and reverence which for him will ever exist in the hearts of the Southern people. \V hat greater monomment. or more enduring. could mof tal wish? The very monuments which crowd the field of Gettysburg, telling of the glorious leeds of the Northern hosts, tell also of the heroism of those who wore the gray. Can glc rious deeds he performed in conquering a weaker foe, unless a w rker foe per form deeds more glorious? That is the question that will spring to the lips of each t hought ful person who visits the battlefiteld of Gettysburg. ''he incident in regard to the Bill serves only to show the narrovness of spirit which still prevails nnong some people who live at the North and who call themselves Americans. It hurts the ! out h not at all. TilE ROADS. It is a sa(d commentary upon our civili zation that our roads shouh be in their present condition. There can scarcely he found a go( I road in Newberry cunty when the best of weather pre vails, anl during a rainy period like that which has continued for the past several weeks, the roads are almost impassable. Something is radically wrong when such a state of affairs exists. The trouble lies in the law nder which the roads are worked. We wish the Legislature could s:.nd a few dhuys ini this county just, now andt at teimpt to drive over aniy road in the county. We believe that evei y member without excepltion would go back to Columbia dleterminedl to take )ime act ion loo0k ing toward(s roadl im p ravemnentI. There is not hing ta be gained by keelping uip the present system. What we need and what the pleople demandl is ai prloperty tax that shall be ex,,n:d edi exclusively upon01 thle permaniet im provement atf the public highways. We have been dligginig dijtchies on either sidle and iling soft mud in the cntre loing enough, and results hav'e long sinc(e shoiwn the inadequacy of the bar barous pract ice. IPract ically the only Ipeople who are now~ kicking again sta proper-t y tax are those who have ne taxes to pay. There is neither pileaIsure nior proil in highways such as we now have ii New berry county. Thlere is a g real good( roadis. The only' way to secure gi >dl readls i: to i mipose a tax upon01 all propers y an(1 use the nmoney exclusively in permna neint wor'k. That is wvhat we nieedl am that is what we dlemiand and must15 have In view of this question, just. now alI others fade hIto inisignificance. Special Agent. J. Epps1 Brown, of' th Hell Telephonie Company, deserv'es; great deal of credlit and of piraise to the miannier ini which he has handled th telephone sittuationi in Newvberry. I Ic ani old1 Newbe'rry boy and the peCople a thu city knew him well enough to be lie ,'e that, while lie wvould be tru to the 'ompantliy in whiose emplo; he is, yet he would not knowvingl; do( anything aIginist the interest of New berry and( eri people. Th fact thait he obtainled ai franchis where there had before been repeatel failures is an indication of the confi dlence rep)osedl in him by council. Th peCtition wh1ich was very largely sigie by the leading business men of thi city requtesting of cotncil that a frau chise such as would insure its accept ance by Mr. Brown on behalf of th Bell Company, be granted, shows th esteem in which lhe is held by the peo pIe of Newberry, wvho knew that h would make none btut a fair prop)osition andI that his promises, whether or no incorporated in a wi itten contract would be fulfilled in their entirety. Mr. Brown has had a phenomenal ea reer in the telephone business, and the people of Newberty rejoice in the fact. We hope) that lie will often visit thi city. _________ TAVE YOUR COLLARS ANIl II Cuffs right up to the scratch. N< waiting, no disappointment at the Newherry Steam Laundry. ,LEGISL4TIVB PROCBEDINGS. The Electlons-SenAte Takes Votes On Im portant Measures, And Then Ques tions its Action-Other Matters. Columbia, January 29. ---The General Assembly-spent pra^tically two days of this week in the election of an Associate Justice, to succeed Hon Y. J. Pop?, and of a Code Commissioner to succeed lion. W. H. Townsend. Mr. C. A. Woc Is, of Marion, was chosen Associate Jus tice, and Mr. Wim. Elliott, Jr., Cxle Commissioner. In the race for Associate Justice there were six candidates, as follows: Col. J. L. Tribble, of Anderson, Senator Robet t Aldrich. of Barnwell, Hon. C. A. Wc: is. of Marion, ex-Judge ,1s. F. lzlar, of Orangeburg. ex-Senator W. B. Gruber, of Colleton, and Hon. J. F. J. Caldwell, of Greenwood. The elec tion was entered into in Joint Assembly at I o'clock on Tuesday. Five ballots were taken without any candidate re ceiving a majority, and the matter was ostploned until next day. On the fifth ballot the vote stood: Woods 71. Aldrich 33. Tribble. 17. Caldwell 13, zlar t. Gruber 14. On Wednesday four of the candidates had withdrawn. leaving in the race only Messrs. Woods and Ald rich. Mr. Woods received 87 votes and Mr. Aldrich 67. Necessary for election For the position of Code Commission er there were four candidates, Messrs. J. C. McClure, of Chester. E. C. Haynes worth, of Sumter. Wm. Elliott, Jr.. of Columbia, and F. H. Dominick, of 'te x berty. The first five ballots resulted as follows: Dominick 42 38 32 21 15 Elliott -12 -3 -15 50 56 llaynesworth 33 35 34 3.1 33 McClure 31 35 40 10 "13 After the fifth ballot Mr. Dominick withdrew, and on the sixth Elliott re ceived 50, la. neswbrth 41, and Mc ('lure 50. There w.s still no election, and a recess was taken until 8 p. in. After the seventh ballot Mr. laynes wot Ch withdrew, and in the eighth Mr. Elliott received 73 and Mr. McClure 71. The vacancy on the Boat d of Ti us tees of South Carolina College, caused by the resignation of Lieutenant Gov ernor Jno. T. Sloan, was filled by the unanimous election of former Sul j ir . tendent of F.lucation, Joln J. Mc Mahan. U. S. SENATOR LATIMIER. lion. A. C. Latimer receiv-d the unanimous vote of each house for the United States Senate. Mr. Latimer, it is well know%n, was nominated in the Democratic primaty last summer, and, of course, had no opposition. SENA TE' TA KES SA FE. SIDE-. The Senate transacted a gcod deal of business on Wednesday mo-ning and took a vote on several impmrtant meas ures, and then decided that on account of the fact that it was a pa t of the .Joint. Assembly which had taken a re cess from' the previous day, action as at sepaurate bodly might be held ille gal, andl it was decided that Wednies (lay's calendar- be replaced and made the calendar for Thurtsdlay. The questions upon which act ion was taken were those of biennial sessions, and child labor, Mr. Marshall's Child Labor Bill came tip for a second read ing, atnd after a gocd (heal of dliscuissioni it wvas moved that the enacting wordls of the Bill be stricken out. The mo tion was killed by a vote of 22 to 13 and the Bill ordered to at third read(ing. Mr. Warren's Joint Resohtition to amend th( Constittution so as to p)rovide for bien nial sessions wasi passeCd by a vote of 2 to 6. The Raysor Compulsory Educa tioni Bill was dliscuissed and postponed. While the Senate dotubts the legality of its action in these matter's and agair p)laced them on its calendar todlay, yet the votes taken yesterd(ay are an inde> of the views of the Senate, and an~ ftirther action will not change the situ. ation. Each hotise has gieven qutite at numb)e of Bills their- third readIing. A mont these is Mr. Kibler's Bill, the provis ions of wvhich have already been pub lished, relating to the quaiilificaltions of County Superintendents of Edtication Mr. Kibler's Bill to regalate th< gr'anting of certificates to teach in th< free ptublic schools of the State ha, been killed. TIhe Bill prtovided tha1 evem y applicant should standl an exami ination, and was especially aimedl at col lege graduattes. Mi'. l"'orde's Bill providing hat ten fyear cony icts be sent to county chain -gangs hi" gone to ai thirdl readling. The first. (debate in the Senate wit provoked tpon a Bill to regulate tram5 in cotton seedl. The Bill wvill likely b< passedl. Senator D)ouglt'ss' Bill to amend th< law relating to stealing from the field createdl a wvarm disculssion in the Hotuse -The Bill p)rovidles that this crime shal come within the jurisdiction of mnagis trates, in ord(er that farmers nray no Sbe required to catrry such cases to court -The House refused to kill the Bill an< passedl it to a secondl reading. 3jAmong the newv Bills introducedl art - Jthe following: Senator Sham pe -To prov ide for State bacteriolog&jt.

The Boand of Cominnsskiners of l - lie Works appeared beforv the City Council at their meeting Whe naay night and presented the followitg com municat ion and rwon emiations, which will be of interest to the citi ns of the city. The Council postpokAl action on the recommendations and will take the matter up at an early date. RKIPOR' e;T OF THR eA)W. The Board of Public Works would respect.fully rquest of the City ('ouneil a careful examination of the following communicat.ion: Since the inception of the water works at d electric lighting plant, the effort of the Board has been to give to the community as much water and e rood lighting service as possible at the least cost, and in carrying out that pur pose they have made tais mistake: that water and light service has been fur nished so near to actual cost price that the system has never been able to lay aside the necessary money that the ex tension and repairs now call for. They have no funds to fall back upon to make extensions, and the growth of the city now demands an enlargement of the plant, and to bring this matter to the attention of the citizens the Board makes the following statement: 1st. Our supply of water is as perfect as the day it wes turned over to the Board. We have only one well and well pump, a stand-pipe of 280,0C3 gal lons capacity, and a small reservoir of an estimated capacity of 140,600 gal lons. The daily average consumption now varies from 45,000 to 60,0&') gallons and the average daily consumption in the summer is from 60,000 to 75,000 gallons per (lay. (Last summer one day there was consumed 140,009 gallons.) This, you can see, does not give us a sufficient reset v'e supply of water in case of an accident to our well-pumping machinet y. For w ith the demand soon to be made for water for the sewer system (from 10,0.)0 to 15,70) gallons daily), with the reg.lar daily demand, we should have a rese voir of 750,000 gallor's capacity at the vety least. 2nd. The electtic light plant was in stalled with capacity for 1,000incandes cent lights. We now have attached to it. circuits 1,604 lights, greatly over loading the capacity, and still other par ties wanting lights, which we are forced to decline as we have more on now than we can carry with any degree of safety to the plant. The are machine carries 50 lights of 2,000 candle power, and is at its limit. Take Greenville for instance: She pays $97.50 per year"for each are lamp of 1,200 candle power. Atlanta pays $82.50 each per year. Water com panies all over the countty charge from $24.09 to $50 per annum for each fire hydrant in the street. Newberry now has 84 hydrants for which she pays nothing. The first contract that the Board made wvith the Council was that wve wvoul'l only charge cost price for street lighting and fire hydrant .ervice. The Boardl furnished 47 arc lights of 2,000 candle power at $80.00 each per annum andl charged the city nothing for fire service. Under these conditions the receipts from the city andl for (domestic ser vice paidl all the t unning expenses and for the first thiree years enabled the Boardl to exp)andl in extensions of water and light plant all that has been necessary. With the beginning of 1901 there had been such a demand for extensions that the Board brought the matter to the attention of the Council, with the propo sition that the Boardl should either charge the city $20.00 per annum for each fire hydrant, or, if the Council would make an appropriationi of $1,500 per year, in addition to wvhat they were already paying for street lights, the 'Boardl would attemp)t to run the plant on that basis and exp)and the plants as -fair as the extra appropriations would allow, with the expectation that the same arrangement wvould be carried out thr'ough the year 1902. Out of the ex pected $1,500 to be paid (luring each of the yea.s~ 1901 and 1902 the Board only receivedl during the two years (1901 and 1902) $840 of this amount. Tlhe in come undler the p)resent arrangements is estimated at $9,500 for 1903 andl ex p)enses estimatedl at $8,500 to $9,000, - leaving a probable p)rofit of $500 to - $1,c03. If the city had the means now to put a the water plant and electric lighting 3systems in better operating condlitions 3 -a larger pump for the well and improved electi ic a)paratus--the in Scome wvould increase, and at the same time the expenses for fuel, carbons and -repairs wvould diminish by a large per I centt. In view of the fact that we - badly need an increased capacity for a reservye supplly of wvater, and an en largement of the electi ic lighting p)lant I to make same satisfactoty, the Board wvould respectfully request that a full meeting of the Council 1 e called and the whole matter I . thoroughly (is cussd an such plans foi mulated as cuss e to the best interest of the town. The Board must either increpse the price of lights and water to indlividluals and increrse the 1)1 ice charged for each arc light and charge the city for each fire hydrant to set aside tunds for nec essary 2xpenses and improvements, or the city will have to arrange to place at the dlisposal of the Boardi stuch an amount of money as may be necessary to do a portion of this work at once.

They would jerk long bullet.s. tetl jokes and have a good tin-' generally. Mr. Williams rarely got any letters, but Peterson. Burton and Davidson had a :onsiderable correspondence. Mr. Wil liams said he did not understand why people wrote to them and would not write to him. Finally they talked the matter over with Maj. C. II.

The first letter ,ame from Montgomely and said that dte writer had heard of Mr. Williams as a fine fat mer and wanted to sell him his plantation near that place. When the postmaster handed Mr. Williams the letter he was besides himself, said: I have a letter! I have a letter! When he read it he was sui prised. This was the beginning and when from two to three came each week, Mr. Williams knew it was a job put up on him, but it took him nearly a year to catch on. le was a good fisherman and usually had the luck, but some times he got left. ienmy Burton and Mr. Williams were fishing one day and Mr. Williams ""aught several small suckers, Henry Burton had caught none. (I forgot to say that Mr. Williams' way of dividing the ' -h was if he caught them he was to have all the fish, but if the other lellow caught them Mr. Williams wes to have half the fish and first choice.) Finally Mr. Burton went to another place and caught a seven pounder and a small one or two. Ile then came to Mr. Williams and said luck was bad and let's divide the fish and go home. Mr. Williams said that each one was to have the fish he caught. Mr. Burton begged for one for his mother, but Mr. Williams would not divide. Then Mr. Burton went and got his fish and brought them up and Mr. Williams grabbed the large fish and claimed it in the divide. But Burton would not di vide and would not let Mr. Williams go home with him to help eat the fish. Wild turkeys wer'e plentiflul ini those :lays, andl as I Iem y Burton had a goodl turkey (log, Mr. Williams and Mace Young put up a job on Mr. Burton.
