Communic^-i tions are being received every week to which there is no signature, nor any word of explanation to tell us who are the authors. We can do nothing less than consign them to the waste basket, even though many of them are well worth being given space. It is not a matter of choice, but. of necessity. We must know the source of all communications, even though we do not publish the names. () We have been more than gratified with the results of our appeal for renewals. Quite a large number of subscribers have sent in their renewal, and not a few new nam< have been added to our list. This we greatly appreciate. We have never yet called upon our subscribers without receiving a hearty response. We feel sure they will rally to our help. Thirteen months have gone by since we had the destructive Arc which worked a great hardship upon us. We find the aid that comes so steadily in from our subscription list to be of great assistance to us in working out our reconstruction. To every one who is in arrears, we beg to say: Send in your renewal just as soon as you can. It will help us in our time of struggle. Eleven months more and we will have paid for our plant. We feel that we are now making a first-class county weekly. We expect to make it yet better as we get further along in our battle to pay for a new plant. One dollar to one man is a small matter. A thousand dollars from as many subscribers would mean little 10 eacn, duc mucn to us. Look at your label and if you are in arrears, kindly send us a renewal. 0 DR. MITCHELL RESIGNS. Dr. S. C. Mitchell, president of South Carolina College, has resigned to take the presidency of a medical college in Richmond, Va. We publish elsewhere the uncalled for attack of Governor Rlease upon Dr. Mitchell. The attack is simply outrageous. That's about all that can be said of it. We have no doubt but that the persistent and vicious attacks from time to time made upon Dr. Mitchell by < lovernor Rlease, have had much to do with the decision of Dr. Mitchell to leave me nuue. i nese aitacKs have assumed more and more the character of offensive personal attacks. It seems that no man, however high his personal standing, nor how spotless his character, need hope to receive at the hands of Governor Blease one bit of consideration. He brands men in high places and of unquestioned reputation with epithets that are unprintable. A life-time of service as an educator on the part of Dr. Mitchell affords him no immuni ty from the flippant and vulger attacks of the Governor. There will be many, no doubt, who will approve this latest and altogether unnecessary attack the Governor has made upon Dr. Mitchell. Never having known Dr. Mitchell, never having so much as seen him, they will yet approve. Not knowing what they do, they will vociferously approve. Thus it has been through the ages, and will be for quite a while to come. But the soberminded, fair-minded citizens of this state are realizing more and more clearly the depths of degradation to which our chief executive is leading s. And an awakning will follow as cnrnltf au fKn curt ckiwno J OIIIU^Oi O ItufTalo Dots. A wedding of unusual beauty was solemnized at the Methodist church here Wednesday evening, April 2nd, when Miss Bertha Reynolds became the bride of Mr. W. Otto Bryson. The ceremony was very impressively performed by Rev. W. F. Gault, pastor of the Methodist church.

Ends Life After Killing Won.an. Wilmington, N. C., April 14.? Prompted, it is alleged, by jealously, Cleveland Prince, a well-to -do farmer, of Wayne county, today went to a hospital in Goldsboro, N. C., inquired for and being shown the room of Mrs. May Carter Lomax, entered, drew a pistol and shot her dead. He then turned the weapon on himself and blew out his own brains. Mrs. Lomax was in the hospital recovering from injuries received a few nights since while automobile riding with Prince and others.
