NEWBERRY. S. C.
THURSDAY, MAY 28, 1891
OUR HOME CRITICS.
"Our own arch. It was a bad botch."
. "The descriptive circulars
xwere not what they ought to have
been" . . . .. "There might be other
riticisms, but they could do no good,"
says the Observer about Newberry's
rch atThe Centennial, and the descrip
tine circulars printed and distributed
at the same time, and also printed in
The Herald and News last week.
The Herald and News would like to
know what good this much criticism
-has done. Newberry's arch was not
elaborate, nor what it should have been,
nor what it was contempiated to be
;but there is no need now of this criti
cism. The arch was not so terribly
.;bad either. As to the descriptive cir
cular The Herald and News thinks it
- was a very creditable circular, and cer
tainly compared favorably in style,
matter and general get up with those
distributed by other counties. But
then there is no "disputing about
tastes" apd some people will find fault
= and complain at anything that is done.
What Newberry needs is not a spirit
fault finding and criticism with ev
2 ery effort for the advancement of the
town, but for every one to do his part
d pull together for the progress and
developement of the town.
The Observer generally says what it
thanks and The Herald and News ad
hires this spirit, but when fault find
-ing and criticism do no good what's
-the use of it.
e descriptive circulars were gener
istributed inColumbia and elicited
.gene co ' bree rom -
nent daily papers spoke in complimen
.tary terms of them, and in fact the on
,: ly adverse criticism that The Herald
and News has heard, comes from our
cotemporary, the Observer.
We are glad to believe that the De
mocracy is good enough for the white
people of South Carolina. They do
? not want a third party. But the
c trouble is going to be that each of the
- two factious now in the State is going
to claim to represent the Democratic
party, and each is going to call the
other Independent, and all sorts of
things. We should get together, but
instead the signs of the times indicate
that we are getting further apart.
There is needed in South Carolina a
spirit of tolerance. There is too great
a tendency among certain of our would
be-leaders to suppress the freedom of
speeeb, unless that freedom puts you in
line with them and all their wild
teachings. Let us have more tolera
tion, more regard for the opinions and
views of each other; stop thinking and
saying hard things of each other, and
ques"tioning one another's motives;
force into retirement all leaders who
by word or action would stir up strife.
Let us remember that we are white
men and brethren, and that all true
inen among us desire the welfare of all
the people. Let us get together, then,
-andi discuss our differences, but let us
do it lte men.
Governor Tillman's head is level on
-a good many things, and he generally
says what he thinks. He'is wrong,
-according to The Herald and Newvs, on
some things, but he is right on the sub
treasury scheme, and now on the third
party craze he expresses himself with
no uncertain sound. According to the
Record he says: "I am a Democrat.
I was born a Democrat and I expect to
die a Democrat. It would be idiocy as
-well as suicide for the Southern people
to follow such leadership. The ulti
matum as to the negro shows what we
may expect from any sneh affiliatio*n."
*State Lecturer Talbert declined to be
interviewed on the subject saying that
he had announced his platform and
that he stood squarely upon it. He ex
pects to do a great deal of stump speak
ing on the issues of the day during the
coming summer.
Governor Tillman is right on this
question and has with him the great
majority of the white people of South
Carolina.
This seems to be a time and a year
for calling people names at long range
and putting these epithets in the shape
of resolutions. Newspapers that give
circulation to such mud-slinging are
not elevating to the moral ton'e of the
community ; neither are they perform
ing their duty in the higher sphere of
journalism. If persons have personal
difficulties let them face each other
like men and settle them among them
selves.
South Carolina had no representative
at Cincinnati to help in forming the
Third Party or Peoples Party. That is
strange for we ha.ve more things done
in South Carolina in the name of -'the
people'" than any other State in the
union. If not then we pity that other
place. But the great mass of the white
people of South Carolina are sat isfied
with the Democratic party.
The Lauress Herald finds a great
many things in the Columbia Centen
nial to frighten it. The Herald seem.s
to think that it was a Hampton Ceii
.tennialand gotten up to to m Hamp
ton politically. It is a great pity some
people can't see anything but polttics.
If Brotlher Crews had gone to (Colurm
bia and gazed upon the beautiful areb
from Laurens, and mingled with the
people there assembled, he possibly
would have had his views broadened
and he could have seen something else
besides politics.
Wade Hampton does not need any
boom, and the people who love him for
what he has done and what he is, will
continue to show him honor and re
spect, even though the Laurens Hemald
does see something in it to frighten
politicians.______

He says one object of
the article is to pay a tribute to Con
gressman Alexander of North Caroli
na who was offered and declined a free
pass, and the other is to inquire if any
of our Congressmen or State officers are
now the recipients of such favors from
any of the railroads. He says he will
keep a column open and standing "for
the purpose and invite our Congress
men, as well as members of the Legis
lature and State officers who have re
fused to accept free passes to send us
their names."

lieve brother Stokes will have any need
to reserve a column for this purpose,
for when he gets all his information in
he will find that the whole posse of
State officials are enjoying the luxury
of a free pass, some of them for them
selves and families. But- what's the
use of making a fuss about it. They
all do it. But prosecute your investi
gation and you will find that all our
State officers ride on free passes.
Now about the Congressmen we
have no definite information, except
that we understand that Cougressman
Johnstone has declined to accept a free
pass, and this statement is made with
out his knowledge or consent. But
you will find some of these gentleman
using free passes too.
But where is the harm Mr. Cotton
Plant? Let these gentlemen have a
good time if they want to. They are
in the thing to make out of it all they
can and let them proceed.
Now we want the Cotton Plant to re
member that The Herald and News is
not on the witness stand and does not

always been thus and why now make
a fuss about it.
By the way it might be well for the
Cotton Plant to tell us whether the
State Senator from Orangeburg Cc3nty
is the recipient of a free pass from the
railroads, as he wants information from
Legislators as well as Congressmen.
The Columbia police have run upon
a gang of negro youths, from seven to
ten years old, who have been banded
together for the purpose of stealing and
robbery. There are fourteen in the
gang and they have styled themselves
the "Jesse James gang." They have
been operating in Columbia about nine
months.
ABOUT A SECOND TERM.
The boom against the present admin
istration for 1892 is evidently on, but it
goes slow.-Bamberg Advertiser.
How long has it been announced that
the present administration was in the
race for reelection in 1892? Has it
come to pass that an official act of the
:resent administration cannot be criti
ised without it being construed into
opposition to the administration?
There are a few rabid administration
sheets in South Carolina that are try
ing very hard to keep up the strife and
warfare of last summer and that twist
everything into opposition to the ad
ministration. The candidates for 1892
have not yet been announced.
But the Bamberg Advertiser finds
several things in the Columbia centen
nial that it magnifies into opposition
to the administration. It thinks the
reuion of the Haiinpton Legion in Au
gusta a short time ago, and the Colum
bia centennial were all manipulated
against a second term for the present
administration, and that the proposed
reunion of Butler's Brigade tends that
way. A man can generally find what
he looks for. But if the administra
tion has such a hold on the people as
its ardent organs claim for it, we see no
use of all this scare. The editor of The
Herald and News happened to be in
Columbia during the whole of the cen
tennial, and he saw nothing, politi
cally speaking, to so frighten the ad
ministration. The State officers had
every attentioni, and those of them
with, whom we talked spoke in very
flattering terms of the success of the
celebration.
If the present administration meets
the approval of the people, it will very
likely secure a second term if it desires
t. If it does not meet that approval,
the people will very probably say so,
and there is no use for these adminis
tration papers to become so frightened
at so early a date.
Keep cool brethren, the summer heat
is just beginning and there is no use
yet for you to tear your shirt.
DR. GRIFFIN GOES OUT.
Dr. P. E. Griffin has been removed!
from the Asylum, as Superintendent,
and Dr. Thompson, has been appointed
as his successor temporarily. The per
manent successor has not yet been
named.
The Herald and News, is of the same
opinion as expressed last week, that Dr.
Griffin has not been fairly dealt with.
He ough t to have been a llowed to meet
the witnesses against him face to face
and hear the evidence and reply to it.
This was not done. The evidence was
taken in secret and was only an ex parte
hearing. If the Governor and the in
vestigating committee wanted the facts,
and that is what they ought to have
desired, they should have heard both
sides.
s it not a fact that the investigation
by the committee as first made and the
report to the Governor, was to the
effect that they found the management
all right, and that Governor Tillman,
called the Committee together, again
and attended the investigation in per
son, ar'e the second investigation is the
one' r which the Governor deposed
Dr. Griuin.
But Dr. Griffin is out, and it is very
important that an efficient and experi
enced man be appointed as his succes
Would it not be a good idea-to take a
rest from politics now? Lets talk
about farming, or devote a little time
to our schools and colleges.
But this is a strange year, and noveij
BANKS AND RAILROADS.
"It is estimated that the raising of
the assessments on railroads and banks
in this State will amount to nearly
$25,000,000, which if not reduced will
add about $100,000 to the taxes of the
State."
The above is from the Columbia cor
respondence or the News and Courier.
The banks and the railroads will enter
a very lively protest -against such a
large increase in their assessments. It
would make no difference to them if
all 6ther property was increased in
value in the same ratio, because then
the rate of taxation would be lower.
But it does not appear just right to in
crease these returns wLen every one
knows that real estate and nearly all
personal property is returned at much
below its market value. The truth of
the matter is that it is a very difficult
thing to tell just what the market va
lua of property is.
Mr. Ellerbe says that his purpose is
to increase the assessments of all pro
perty to its market value and he hopes
to gettheILegislatuie at its next session
to order a reassessment of real estate
for taxation, and if it is not done then
he will recommend a rebate to the rail
roads and banks.
But why not wait and let the re
assessments of real estate, and the in
crease in the banks and railroads, all
come at once. There needs to be some
thing done in the matter of assess
ments and the start must be made,
but the present looks very much like
an attack on corporations to meet popu
lar approval.
This $100,000 will be needed very
likely to fill up a deficiency from
phosphate royalty, but then let this
increase all come at once, and let all the
citizens and taxpayers stand on equal
ground.
The Evening Record, in giving a
record of removals, should not be so
surprised. It is always thus. Some
thing must be done to meet the prom
ises of last year. The Herald and News
does not object to changes. But
change is not always reform.
TheU Z,* Committee Thanks The
To the Editor of The Herald 'and
News:-Your kindly reference in "The
Herald and News," issue of the 21st, tc
the Newberry arch at the Columbis

matter in charge. I desire publicly tc
allude to the pleasure afforded us it

were "fitly spoken," and appeared to us
therefore "like apples of gold in pictures
of silver," in contrast with the unseemly
spirit of fault-finding that actuated
some hypercritical spectators, who con
demned the appearance of the arch be
fore the arch was completed.
With the resources at command the
committee did the best it could, and
strove earnestly to advance the best
interests of the Town and County, and
has cause for believing that some good
will eventuate from the labors expend
ed. I desire in return to comphment
you for the fine public spirit displayed
in yielding so much of your space as
was necessary to publish in full the
pamphlet, several thousand copies.o~
which were distributed among the visi
tos at Columbia. That pamphlet, de
scriptive of New berry's resources, was
circulated freely and called forth only
the highest praise and commendation,
so far as we have heard.
- Some have said, that New berry was
the best and most judiciously advertis
ed county in the State. The work ol
distribution was well attended to by
the write'r, by personal superintend
ence, so much so as denied him the
pleasure of hearing that grand old Ro
man Wade Hampton in his centennmal
oration. And for the benefit of thosE
who condemn and abuse right and left,
regardless of others' opinions, let us
commemd the "gude" advice of Robbie
Burns and the pleasant expressions
which I quote further on.
"C) wad some power the giftie gie us
To see oursels as others sEE Us!
It waa frae monie a blunder free us,
And foolish notion."
I attach great value to the opinions
which follow, as they prove the "fool
ish notion" that some have that
New berry's arch was a disgrace and a
failure. Col. F. W. McMaster, the hon
ored Mayor of Columbia writes to me.
"There were arches inferior to that of
New berry, but of course we were grate
ful to all. :t was the fellowship we
prized anid not the amount of money
spent on the decoration." High au
thority to be sure. This will bear read
ing twice, as it shows "oursels as others
see us."
That prince cf correspondents, M. F.
Tighe of the Charleston News and Cou
rier, wrote to his paper about the pam
phlets as follows:
"Sumter has done wonders in the
way of advertising, all of which has
been read with interest, but she has
found a worthy competitor, in New
berry. Yesterday thousands of little
pamphlets were circulated among the
visitors in which the advantages of
Newberry City and Newberry County
were attractively set forth."
And the Charleston World and the
The State likewise had comsplimentary
notices of the pamphlets.
In addition to what is given above.
we cherish as well the golden opinion
of those at home who have spoken so
favorably of them. However,

Some say onions, some say Iions."

LIVELY EFISODE IN LAURENS.
Reported Interview Between Professors
Evans and McElroy Regarding that
Baskell Invitation.
[Greenville News, 24th.]
Laurens had a breezy sensation on
Friday, if the reports that reach here
are correct. Some time ago Professor
Evans, principal of the Laurens male
academy, invited Col. A. C. Haskell,
of Columhsa, to deliver an address be
fore the school. The invitation caused
much talk in Laurens and Professor
W. T. McElroy, of Laurens County,
well kno^"n here, wrote an article in
the Laurensville Herald severely criti
cizing Professor Evans and making
statements which that gentleman
considered untrue and injurious. Pro
fessor Evans did not reply, but Friday
he met Professor McElroy on the
streets. The occurences that followed
are reported as told to a News reporter
yesterday :
Professor Evans asked Professor Mc
Elroy if he was responsible for the
statements, and the latter answered af
firmatively.
"You'll have to retract them," quiet
ly said Professor Evans.
"You are not going to attack me?"
queried Professor McElroy.
"I mean what I say," spoke Profes
sor Evans. !'You'll have to retract
those statements."
Professor McElroy said -that he was
unarmed, whereupon Professor Evans
told him to go and arm himself and he
would wait for him where he was
standing.
Professor McElroy went away and
did not return. Professor Evans
searched for him and found him in J.
T. -Roland's hardware store. "Have
you armed yourself?" Professor Evans
asked.
"No."
It is said that Professor McElroy
then drew a knife. Professor Evans
raised a walking cane and sternly com
manded Professor McElroy to put the
weapon oack in his Docket. This was
done, and Professor McElroy again
said he was unarmed.
Professor Evan, told him to get a
pistol from Mr. Holland and if he
would not, he would buy it for himi.
Professor McElroy refused to get
weapon, and Professor Evans brought
matters to a crisis by ordering paper,
pen and ink and having it put before
Professor McElroy.
"Now write--and retract the false
statements yvh have made," said Pro
fessor Evas, and Professor McElroy
obeyed,The retraction was written

State Teachers' Association.
A circular letter has been received
from Prof. D. B. Johnson, Chairman
of the Executive Committee of State
Teachers' Association, announcing the
meeting at Anderson and stating that
entertainment has been provided.
The letter is published in full on the
first page of The Herald and News.
What better inducements could
teachers want than the ones offered?
The expenses of the trip will be only
nominal. Only the railroad fare need
be taken into consideration. Teachers,
it is your duty to attend the Associa
tion, and besides being a duty it will
be a pleasure. It is to be hoped that
at least twenty teachers will be at An
derson from Newberry County. Such
an opportunity may not soon be offered
again.
Trustees Meeting.
The schooi trustees of the county will
be expected at Newberry on the 2nd
Saturday in June. They should come
prepared to give their views on the
different questions concerning the pub
lic schools. They ought to know exact
ly the condition of the schools under
their charge and should be ready to
tell what is neaded for their improve
ment. I know that there are many
things that impair the efficiency of our
scnools in the country, but I also
know that they can be made better and
more efficient if they should receive
that attention and thought that they
so justly deserve. At the meeting In
June let us try to devise some means
to improve not the system so much,
but the proper execution of the system.
We should not say that our schools are
doing as well as could be expected,
when there is some room yet for im
provement.
About Grammar.
A few days ago a certain teacher of
the county while iiscu.aing the worth
of English Grammar in our schools,
and the best methods of teaching it,
took issue with most of our text books
when he doubted the correctness of the
sentence: "I feel bad." He argued in
this way: "bad" is never used as an ad
verb, "badly" being the correct form.
In the sentence, does not bad tell how
Ifeel? And if it tells how I feel is it
not a modifier of feel? And if it is a
modifier of feel is it not correct?
It seems to me that wherever the
idea of being is most prominent in the
verb that the adjective form and not the
adverbial should be used. Suppose we
take the sentence: "He remained si
lent," and in place ' e
a ..
full progra
lish but can say ne -
well, and that the visitors wer
pleas' d with the exercises.
The school has closed until July,
when it will open again. Miss Crooki
is doing very good work in our school,
and the patrons seem to appreciate it
What should-it be Called?
Considerable discussion is being ear
ried ob in the-newspaperd as to wha1
the "War between the States" shoul<c
be called. The State Supt. of Educa
inbists that it be calld the "Statei
Rights War." This seems to me to bi
a rather poor name, and to indefinite.
It would have been a state rights wai
had all the Southern States remained
and fought under the same flag as the
Northern States. They did not d<
this, however, but seceded from the
Union and endeavored too establish
their independence as a distinct repub'
lic. It was then beyond doubt a war
for independence, and not so mu~ch foi
states rights because the Southern
States by the act of secession were nc
longer a part of the Union and there
fore could claim no rights in the Union.
The News and Courier, then wai
right when it calls the contest, "Th4
War for Southern Independence." Il
matters not however what the war be
called in our school histories. We al.
know the causes of it, and can explair
them to the pupils.
County Assoeiation.
The Association will meet at New
berry on the 1st Saturday, and teach
es must not forget the change of the
time. We hope to have as many o2
more teachers present than at the lasi
meeting.

The CrTIcURA REMEDIEs wrought a won
derful cure on me. I was troubled greatly
with a severe case of eczema, and after receiv
ing little or no benefit from the treatment of
some of the leading speialists here, I procur
ed a set of them and ~fore they were all used
the disease had left me. I recommed the
CUTICLRA REMEDIEs as the best and surest
cure for all diseases of the skini.
