CoosAW COMPANY MOVES AGAIN.
Petition Filed to Carry the States Last
Action Into the United States Court.
THE State, 1St.1

The opposing forces on the Cocsaw
chess board are in motion again, and
the last move of the State is now to be
met with another from the Coosaw
Company. As result, the receivership
matter is likely to be taken from the
hands of the State Court and transferred
to the United States Circuit Court.
Attorney General Pope, when seen
last night, stated that he had received
nformation-not, however, obtained
from any papers-that Coosaw Mining
Company had filed in Charleston a
petition, which was accompanied by a
bond, to cause the removal OF the ac-
ton recently commenced by the State
of South Carolina against the Coosaw
Mining Company to the United States
Circuit Court for South Carolina for
trial.
This action on the part Of Coosaw
will create some surprise in this section
ofthe State, although many have ex-
pected that the company would make
some counter move to that recently
made at Aiken by the State.
The Attorney General says that this
step was not unexpected by the State
represe ntatives, and he smilingly as
sured the reporter that 1.-The States case
has strength enough to win in any
tribunal to which it may be assigned
for trial"
It may be assumed from this that the
phosphate commission either does not
fear the latest move of the Coosaw, or
If so, does not care to show it.

A THRILLING STORY.

As announced two weeks ago, The
Herald and News begins this week the
nublication of thrilling and interest
ing story of love, poetry and prose oy
DR.. O. B. Mayer, Sr. Apart from 1ne
interest and pathos of the story l1seli,
it is descriptive of the Dutch FORK anu
the neople of that famed section half a
century ago. The habits and the Gus
toms peculiar to these people in that
time have passed away and can ana
will only live by being preserved IN
writings such as this story.
The Herald and News knows Oh no
one better fitted to write OF the Dutcn
Fork than DR.. Mayer.
Wehave published few extra copies
this week. If you want to read this
interesting story you had better sub
scribe for The Herald and News at
once and not depend on borrowing your
neighbor's copy.
This story will run through three
weeks. When it is finished several OF
DR. Mayors other stories will be pub
lished. They are being rewritten eS-
pressly Tor The Herald and News ana
we are sure will be read with interest.

The solons of the Arkansas LIE

The solons of the Arkansas Legisla-
ture are striking at the roots Of things.
Last week they passed a resolution to
put Jefferson Davis picture where
Washington's portrait has hung for
twenty-five years. The House also
passed a resolution favoring the elec-
tion,of President, Vice-President and
United States Senators by popular
vote, and their latest sensation is a
resolution passed in the Senate pro-
hibiting q mortgage being given on a
crop planted or yet to be planted.
They seem to think there is something
wrong somewhere, and they'll just
keep on striking until they hit it.

THE COLLEGE FOR WOMEN.

The Herald and News publishes else
whore this week the circular letter
;ssued by the Commission appointed
bv Gov. Tillman to collect information
and renort on the establishment OF an
Industrial College for Women.
rhe school will be established ana
will be supported by the State. The
place has not yet been decided upon
That is ole of the purposes Of the COM
mission.
This school will be of great benefit to
the town and community in when II
is established. Whatever town or
community that secures it will be eS-
pected to give pecuniary aid towards
its establishment in the shape Oh
money for buildings and site upon
which to build. =,
Now the question with The Herald
and News is why should not NewDerry
make efforts to secure this prize Ihls
question we submit to our citizens ana
business men and would be pleased to
have expressions of opinion from them
on the subject.
A town no larger than Newoerry
secured q similar institution that was
RECENTLY established in Georgia, when
cities like Atlanta were competing tor
# It would be worth more to New
berry in the end than it would cost 10
secure it in the beginning.
It's worth considering, and worm
considering we'll, before casting ASIDE
the question lightly.
All bids must be in by the first OF
July. That gives usj just three months
to do something or nothing. New
berry is centrally located, with nne
climate and healthy, and with superior
railroad advantages. All these aa-
yantaees we have, but it Will take
more to secure this college. We VIII
have to give material aid in the man
ner above mentioned or some OF our
more enterprising sister towns Will
secure the college.

POLITICS IN THE ALLIANCE.

The Herald and News publishes this
week the resolutions Of the Mt. Pleas
ant Alliance on the question of the
Alliance engaging in the business Of
banking and politics. 1t occurs to US
that the Mt. Pleasant Alliance in on
the right track. The Alliance is a good
order, and in many ways can, and will,
be of great benefit to the farmers, out If
it does not keep clear of politics as an Or
ganization and politicians it will surely
split upon this rock. 1t has always
been strange thing to US that the
farmers could and would allow them
selves to be so easily taken in by politi-
clans, who had no use for them or their
organization, except so far as they could
use both for their own promotion and
aggrandizement. Many persons claim
to be great friends of the Alliance, and
join the order to use it to put them
selves in good positions.
The farmers as we'll as cher citizens
should take an active interest in public
questions, and it is right and proper
for them to seek and obtain Office, but
if the Alliance does not unload itself Of
demagogues and politicians, who are
using the order for all it is worth, the
organization will fail of the purpose for
which it was founded.
The Mt. Pleasant Alliance is right.
If the Alliance employs men to attend
to its business and pays Them for it,
they should let politics, in the shape of
o.ice seeking and holding political
office, severely alone.
That is the opinion of The Herald
and News, although the editor is not a
member of the Alliance, and possibly
has no right to speak, and does not
pretend to speak officially, for that
order. 1t is Gully, as we take it, for the
good of the order that we speak at all.

THE LIBRARY SOCIETY.

A correspondent furnishes some IN
teresting facts and figures on the ques-
ton of public libraries in other States.
The Herald and News feels sure that
enough persons will be interested IN
the matter in Newberry to lnake a
start, though it be small one. we
must not despise the day of small
things. The library society must and
will be organized, ifthere are only a
dozen to begin with, and only as many
books.
Once organized it will give people,
who are 50 disposed, he opportunity
to contribute small gifts, or large ones
fer that matter. in the shape OF BOOKS
or money. If it were not organized
they would not have this privilege.
A meeting will be held the latter
part of next week, the time and place
of which due notice will be given, and
the beginning made.
It is hoped that enough interest Will
be felt IN this matter to assure q good
attendance. But large orsmall the or
ganization will be effected.

Humbert is not satisfied with the pro-

the New Orleans lynching.
The action is said not to mean hostil-

THE SCHISM HEALED.
Diocesan Delegates Elected hy Charleston
Churches.
Especial to The Register.

CHARLESTON, March 30.-The con-
gregations of st. Michael's and St.
Paul's churches to-day elected dele
gates to the Diocesan Convention. AS
they were the only churches that re-
mained unrepresented in the conven-
ton after the settlement Of the color
question, the election of delegates is re-
garded as a final healing of the schism
which has prevailed in the diocese for
the past four or five years. The trouble
arose from the placing Of the name OF
a negro clergyman on the convention
roll of clerical deputies, which action
caused quite a number Of parishes to
secede.

pointed by the Governor under the
foregoing resolutions, beg leave to call
attention to the Importance of the OBJ
ject proposed and to invite co-opera-
ton. It is unnecessary to speak OF the
need, or of the value to the State, Of
such provision in aid of the education
of women. Recognizing the benefits
which such an institution would confer
upon the community in which it
might be erected. the Legislature
through US appeals to the cities and
towns of the State to submit offers for
it's location. The presence Of a State
school of this character, with a large
faculty and probably several hundred
youn~ ladies from all parts of the State,
woui at once make its site a centre OF
education, intelligence and. social at
traction. Its influence would directly
elevate and assist the local schools, and
there would follow an increase of pop
ulation, with all enhancement of val
ues, not easily to be overestimated.
We invite the attention of the mu-
nicipal authorities and people Of our cit
les and towns to these considerations.

Correspondence is freely invited. A

All offers must be definitely sub

similar schools abroad will be thor
oughly inspected in order to secure the
advantages of the best experiences.
Afterwards all sites or properties Of

DENVER, Jan. 4.-The honeymoon Of
Banker Dow's son and Millie Price, an
actress, who were married here Friday
night, after an acquaintance OF two
days, came near ending in double
tragedy tonight. Dow's father has re-
fused to have anything to do with him
or aid him financially. Several cred
itors had the young man arrested Satur-
day on the charge of obtaining goods
under false pretenses, and his trial was
set for Wednesday. Tonight the couple
retired to their room at the hotel at
about 10 o'clock. Two hours later Mrs.
Dow rushed out of the room, clad only
in her night dress, just in time to escape
being shot by her husband. Seeing he
had failed to hit her, he attempted to
blow his brains out, but the bullet few

cred before he could make second at

THE STANDING ROCK HosrrLEs.

FORT YATES, N. d., Jan. 4.--The brieI
dispatches from Mandan last night did
not indicate how serious the detection
OF the young bucks from Standing Rock
agency has become. The discovery was
made on issue day that many did not
come to the agency, and one OF the
friendlies said they had armed them
selves andgo to join the bands in revolt.
1t is believed there have been 1000 deser-
tions. The Grand River Sioux have been
fomenting trouble ever since the death
of Sitting Bull, and they have not been
slow in manifesting their anger towards
Agent Mclaughlin. They have been
disposed to resent the killing of Sitting
Bull at the first opportunity. The dis
patches at the time, which stated that
q number OF Indians were glad Sitting
Bull had been removed, were greatly
exaggerated. Troops are being rapidly
moved in different directions TO aid in
squelching the uprising.
THE INDIAN POLICE LOYAL.
7 WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The commis-
sioner OF Indian affairs has, in response
to telegram sent to Agent Roger, at
Pine Ridge, inquiring as to whether
any of the Indians. scouts or police
have Joined the hostlles, received the
following reply from the agent: sNone
OF your enlisted scouts have Joined the
hostiles. The police and scouts are
rendering good service, and by their
vigorous firing prevented the hostiles
from burning the agency buiidings.''
A reporter tonight, called the atven-
tion of the commissioner to the reporf
from Pine Ridge, saying that General
Miles had recommended the removal of
the Indian agents at Pine Ridge and at
other places, and to the statement that
the Indians were slowly starving to
death. The commissioner said that SO
far as the agents were concerned. there
was no evidence that there had been
any, dishonesty on their part in the dis,
tribution of supplies. The commissioner
has submitted to the president state
ment covering the question of the charge
made that the agreements with the In
dians had not been fulfilled.
