There 5s a great scramble just cow j | getting school books. Parents are j sometimes heard to coinpluiu of hav- j ing to spend so much money for i school books. Well, if one will just stand upon the streets as the school children are passing and see what a ' library every boy and girl carries to and fro they will readily understand | why this complaint about tho cost j of school books. Jonesvillo has j opened its high school with about j one hundred and Union will better , that by one thousand, so if you will just think of the great number of scholars in the schools of tho country and then multiply this by a library for every pupil it will be readily understood that this school book business is no small matter and to j uso a common expression it stands ! i the people In hand to get. their school : books as cheap as possible and 1 am ' glad to fcnow that our county school . commissioner and his board is fur( nishing school books at actual cost.

He says: I am more than pleased with the job. 1 had one-third of the paint left over. I know of several other jobs, a y?ar old or more, painted with Devoo, that are wearing well.

The following clipping from the News and Courier was handed us by one of Union's host and'most enlightened citizens. It is worth roading, and throws light on some questions that are liable to como up in every town community: "A telephone company which removos, destroys or injures trees planted by an abutting owner along the street adjacent to his property, under the terms of a city ordinance, in erecting poles and wires under its franchise, is held, in Bronsen vs Albion Telephone Company, (Nebraska) (>0 L. K. A., 42(?, to be liable for the resulting damage, though no unnecessary injury is inflicted." Corporations are said to have no souls. Why should they have souls? No one wants them to have souls. That is the reason that it is necessary to protect the individual and the public from the opproftsion that sometimes shows itself on the part of the corporations. It is also a reason that the public should bo protected from their commercial spirit which often does not hesitate to destroy the shade trees to further their enrln Made to paint buildings with SOLD BY UNION HARD!

C. to discuss * itlt tnem the petition of the Bureau of Freight & Transportation of the'city of Charleston, which refers to rates from Charleston, and that it is the earnest dei-iie of this committee to obtain the cooperation of the business community of the entire State an 1 to show that our position will in no way cjnfbct with the interests of the merchants of tin 1'iedmont or any other section of the State, and arrive at an underjtaruTThg, which will be to the mutual benefit of all s? c. x mu - i -~ ' no'w. i [i.tuie csacrewry or this mnetb* instructed to forward a copy of this resolution to the proper parties and to arrange the meeting as outlined ab>ve Charleston is uot the only city ' bottled up" by rail roads.
