Twelfth Anniversary of the Webster
Literary Society.
[Reported for the Democratic Advocated

[Reported for the Democratic Advocated
The Webster Literary Society celebrated
it's twelfth anniversary at Odd Fellows Hall
on Friday night, April 18th. The very neat
cards of invitation which had been issued
brought together large and very appreciatlve
audience. At 7.45, after music by the Or
chestra, the curtain rose, showing the full So
ciety seated on the stage, which had been
tastefully dressed for the occasion. II. q.
Cowan, of Cuba, n. Y, the president, after
introducing the society and welcoming the
audience, delivered short address on the
aims, purposes and Importance of such an Or
ganization, at the conclusion of which Albert
Billngsea, of Westminster, Md, read hu.
morous selection, entitled "a Matrimonial
Epic'' After the orchestra had given more
music came debate on 'Woman's Suffrage;
and, thougha much hackneyed subject, it was
made interesting and enjoyable. ], H. Whit
aker, of Enfield, N. c., introduced the afiirai-
ative, discussing the propriety rather than the
expediency of women voting, and asserting
woman full equality with man. f. L. Ben
son, of New Market, Md, replied, claiming
that woman was now in the position where
she could exercise the most power and could
best control the ballot box; that political
life was contrary to her nature, and for her to
overstep the bounds of her sphere would be
to degrade herself and ruin the hallowed in
t1uence of home. The second speaker in the
affirmative was J. w. Kirk, of Alexandria,
Va His chief arguments were, that the
morals of the country demand woman's sutf-
rage; that legislation affects woman similarly
to man, and that legislation for her without
representation is incompatible with our instl=
tutions. c. B. Jarman, of Greensboro, Md,
closed the debate, refuting some of the argu-
ments that had been brought forth, drawing
the line of distinction between the two spheres
and stating that to allow woman's suffrage
would be but to repeat the stupendous folly
once committed by Rome. After Charles L.
Reifsnider, Jr., of Westminster, had given
the laughable piece, entitled advice to a
Choir Singer" j. J. F. Thompson, of Mas
sau, W. l., delivered the anniversary Grafton:
He chose for his subject ''Gambetta," and
spoke of the changeableness of French char
acter; of the chief points in Gambetta' life,
his rise To power and his fall, attributing the
latter to his lack of craftsmanship. He de-
fined a statesman as man pure socially and
politically, and showed that the present con-
dition of France, like that of England in the
first half of the nineteenth century, could not
produce such man. The entertainment was
a decided success, and added fresh laurels to
those the Webster has already achieved.

RAILROAD RUMORS.

There are rumors that important changes
will soon be made in the schedules of the
Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta and the
Columbia and Greenville Railroads. 1t is
understood in Columbia that the day passen-
ger and mail train going North, which leaves
Columbia now at 11.4G in the morning, will
be discontinued and that the night train,
which reaches Columbia now from Augusta at
1925 at night will run on through to Charlotte
instead of stopping at Columbia, as under the
present schedule. 1t is also understood that
a mixed train, for the accommodation of local
travel, will be run from Columbia to Char
lotte during the day. leaving Columbia at an
early hour. 1t is also said that the schedule
on the Columbia and Greenvile Road will be
changed so as to make the time of leaving
Columbia about o'clock in the morning,
instead of II 40 as under the present schedule.
Should these changes go into effect, commu-
nication between Charleston and the interior
will be at least "a hours behind the present
schedule, besides the vexatiOns of delay of
passengers at intersecting points. 1t is claim
ed by the C. c.. & A. and the Greenville roads
that they are forced to cut down their ex-
penses. Both companies have already turned
off number Of hands, and it is rumored that
there will be a still larger reduction of their
working forces. Slower time and fewer trains
will also reduce their expenses. 1t is also
urged by railroad officials that the Railroad

THE FREE SCHOOL SYSTEM.

WHITAKER's, S. c., January 81 see in
the last issue Of the ENQUIRER that some
one has let off his big gun, and said we must
guard against excessive diffusion with the
same jealousy that we watch centralizatien.
Then he goes on to say that our system might
be greatly enhanced in its good attainments
by more concentrated employment of the
funds and agencies of this department. And
1 would like to know the difference between
his concentrated system of running our free
schools. If that is not Capitalization, what
would he call centraliZation I? To put one
school house in a township, would say at orce
that there were three-fourths of the children
in the township unworthy of being educated
because they were poor and paid in manner
no taxes. His plan, on his concentrated or
centralized plan, would deprive the very class
of education which the free schools were in
tended to educate The poor are the class
of children that should be met as near their
own doors as could be done. That has not
been done-as the poor children of our cOul-
try, with the poor laborer have to make all
that pays our taxes, sustains our lawyers,
preachers and doctors-with their children at
concentrated, or would call it, a central
lied school for the rich at the expense of the
poor labOring class of our country.
Our free school system is Il very good one II
it were carried out mpal TALLY, and our au-
thorities knew no favorites and would do as
they wish to be done by, which is one of the
orthodox principles of the Bible and when
government or the people lose that principle,
which should govern all honorable men in
their dealings with each other, we are in
about the same situation as Sodom was when
there could not be found five righteous per-
sons within her limits. w. II. CARROLL.

DIR EXCHANGES,

The Associate Reformed Presbyterian, the
organ of The church of that denomination in
the South, is now under the charge of the Rev.
w. NJ Grier and the Rev. j. NJ. Todd as ed
inors, with the Rev. DR.. Boyce as associate
editor. The connection of Mr.. Todd, is OF
recent date and his many friends hope that
he will find his new field a congenial one.
He will prove an acquisition to the editorial
force of the Presbyterian, already one OF the
very best religious journals of the country.
Mr.. George B. Cromer succeeds Mr.. W. II.
Wallace in the editorial management of the
Newberry Herald, and comes before the pub
lie in salutatory at once brief, pointed and
appropriate. Mr.. Cromer's first editorial ut
terances give assurance that the reputation of
the Herald will be safe in his hands, and the
paper will continue to hold high place in
South Carolina journalism.
The Chester Bulletin has been enlarged and
is now printed on power press. MIR. W. f.
Babcock has been admitted as partner in
