TlE GARNENT CUTTER IS HERE,

Ladies, if you would be comfort to
yourself and family and a laudable
money-saver,--sensible, independent
come and join our cutting class.
This thing is sensation just now.
Your own people are cutting by our
system, and claim to have better fits
than can be obtained through dress
makers.
Our motto is: "Cut the garment to fit
so you aCont hare to change it," and
every garment that has been cut, eUen
6y our inexperienced pupils, has had no
change made on 1t, but fit beautifully at
first.
The class at Newberry must be fiu-
ished in three weeks, and pupils will
not be received after the Goth inst. So
the sooner you decide to take the better
it will be for you.
There will be no other class taught in
the county, but persons wishing to
take who live in other towns or in the
country should come in town right
away. Such persons will receive
special attention, and be finished in
from three days to week.
Instructions will be given at the
Crotwell hotel where we have q nice
large airy room.
Any one expecting to take instruc-
tions should write or call on E. 0.

Something About Savings Banks.

Perhaps few persons in this town or
county (Newberry) have fully consid-
cred the possible advantages accruing
to community from having a we'll
managed savings bank in their midst.
Of course, the stocklolder hopes to
realize fair dividend on his invest
ment, and it is right that he should, in
as much as he places himself between
the depositor and all casualties possible
to arise, for in the event of failure, the
stockholder must lose every dollar Of
his investment before the depositor can
lose penny.
But it is in the interest of the deposi-
tor that its peculiar features contribute
most largely. First, by affording him
a safe and pay ing investment for any
and all sums, whether large or small,
and relief against possible loss by fire,
robbery, etc. Further it enables him
to command his reserve at any time
necessity should arise.
Every prudent, thoughtful individ-
ual on whom rests the responsibility Of
providing for themselves, or other de-
pendants, endeavors to provide sur
plus which he will jealously guard. To
such the savings bank offers just the
facility needed.

MRS. DAvIS'S DECISION.
She Gives Virginia the Care Of He- Illus
trious Husbands Body.

New YORK, July l1.-Mrs. Davis,
the widow Of the late Jefferson Davis,
who has been sojouruing at the New
York Hotel in this city for some time
past, in letter forwarded to the cltl-
zens of Richmond to-day, states that,
after much deliberation, she has de-
cided to give Virginia the care OF her
husbands body.
She briefly review le claims OF the
various States to her husbands re-
mains, and urges the fact that in the
fullness of fame he did not belong to
any part of the country, but that in
Richmond he received generous and
.unwavering support in the darkest
hour of the South's efeat.
She refers TO her personal sacrifice in
giving up the hope of dwelling near
her husbands resting place, and ex-
presses the hope that the States of the
Confederacy will also reliaquish their
cherished plans for the sake of gratify-
ing the majority of the veterans Of the
South who have urged Richmond as
the proper place for him who loved
them all and labored for their glory.

HOT SHOT FOR MACUNE.
President Hall Makes Vigorous Attack
Upon the Alliance Leader.

FORT WORTH, TEXAS, July 1.-THE
principal feature of the State Alliance
Convention this morning was the
speech Of U. S. Hall, president Of the
Missouri Alliance. He charges that
DR.. Macune had sold out for a money
consideration to the Protectionists, and
in furtherance of that bargain the
Third Party move was inaugurated in
the South to divert Democratic votes.
He said that it was no disgrace for such
a dishonest man as Macuue to get into
the Alliance, but it would become a
disgrace if he was not turned out.
President Hall was loudly applauded.
Last night Harry Tracy, Macune's
chief apostle in Texas. gave an open
challenge for the debate on the sub
treasury scheue. Hall accepted. The
debate occurs tonight, Tracy claims to
have unsavory facts about Halls career,
newly discovered, which he propose to
turn loose tonight.
The sub-treasuryites, of whom a
squad walked Out of the Convention
yesterday are red hot. 1t is believed
that the out come of the Convention
Will oe spit vi Iue Sldle Alllducc lulO
factions, one representing the Third
Party and the other the Democratic
wing.
The Anti-sub- treasury State Conven-
ton Of the Farmers Alliance to-day
adopted the following resolutions:
That We denounce the sub-treasury
and land loan schemes at governmental
ownership of railradS as violation of
the first principles Of good government,
as paternal in their character, as GEN.
tralizing in their tendencies, and if
enacted into law they would create such
a horde Of national office holders as
would fasten the clutches Of the party
in power upon the throats of the people
so strongly that the voices Of honest,
citizens would no longsr be heard in
the control of Government affairs"
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1891-07-16
TILE DEBATE IN SECRET.

President Stokes, Of the Alliance,
adheers to his decision that the discus
sion of the sub-treasury demand, be-
tween Gov. Tillman and Mr.. Terrell,
shall be before the Alliance and that
none but alliance members shall be
allowed to hear it.
We do not think that President
Stokes has yet given any good and sat
isfactory reason for this decision. The
sub-treasury demand is a demand for
national legislation, and it is an issue,
the adoption or rejection of which, con-
Germs all the people of this country, and
as the Alliance only desires the good Of
all the people, and does not want the
sub-treasury plan if something better
is offered, we can see no good and valid
reason for not allowing the fullest and
freest discussion of this matter. Surely
there can be given in this country the
fullest discussion of all public questions,
and let it be done in good spirit and
temper with the sole purpose Of arriv-
ing at the truth; whether this discus
sion is between members of the alli-
ance or others should make no differ
ence.
The Alliance is a good order and was
inaugurated and gone into by our
farmers for the purpose Of beneitting
them, but good order may sometimes
advocate measures that others may not
agree with, and in this free country
there should be DO effort to choke off
the fullest discussion.
The Augusta Chronicle in a recent
issue, in speaking of the action of Presi-
dent Stokes in the matter Of the pro-
posed debate between Governor Till
man and Mr.. Terrell, we'll says:
econfess TO some alarm for the well
fare of our country and the rights and
liberties of our people whel free men
are ordered to debate in secret, great
question of public policy affecting the
IlSutS VI ali the peOpie.
1--WE confess to apprehension when
men claiming to be Democrats, bind
themselves together in oath-bound so.
cieties, and are ordered 20 debale before
the State Alliance, which sits with
closed doors, great questions of govern
ment policy. We confess to a sense of
humiliation, when the president of q
State Alliance arbitrarily dictates TO the
governor of proud state like South
Carolina, when the governor feels it his
duty to discuss a burning question with
his people face to face, that he under
stands debate between the two ALI
ancemen before the State Alliance is
necessarily a private affair. This is not
Democracy. This is despotism.
''Some of the Alliance leaders and
organs are not only abusive, but intol-
Grant. Only few days ago, we called
attention to the denunciaiion of Gov
ernor Tillman by the Georgia Farmes'
Alliance, published at Atlanta, in
which he was compared to Benedict
Arnold and Judas Iscariot.
1--WE very much mistake the spirit
and justice Of our whole people if they
submit to this denunciation and dicta-
ton of an oath-boucd political society,
with its secret meeting and signs and
grips"

On the Wing from Glenn's.

GREENWOOD, $. c., July IS, 1891.
Dear old Herald and News: thought
perhaps you would like few dots
about Glenn Springs, and as I am
train-bound, Jour rain being one hour
late) I thought I would give you little
of the latest news.
The trip to Glenl's was a very pleas
ant one, left New berry at 9.07 o'clock
and arrived in Spartanburg about two
o'clock in the afternoon of the same
day. Then Blowers takes you in hand,
and after three hours shaking'up, you
90 to the Saratoga of the South.
Newberry is we'll represented by Mr..
w. H. Wallace of the "Observer,"
Burr Waterbury Rikard and Henry
Kinard. "Budn is trying to destroy the
crop Of blackberries, and he seems to
prefer the ''berries to love-" Waterbury
is improving rapidly; has gained about
seventy-five pounds in the last twenty
years.
Glenn's has quite large crowd Of
visitors just now, although larger
crowds are expected next month.
We had three sermons on yesterday
-one by the resident Episcopal minis
ter on 'communlon"; one oy Rev. DR..
Witherspoon on the "Sea ard Sailors
and their Conversion" and Rev. Jno.
G. Seegers preached on "Prayer" at
the, hotel at night.
I would say to all who are afflicted
to 60 to Glenn's. What the water does
not cure, the boys you meet will i'm
prove. Windy" seemed to take the
cake. All the girls fell in love with
him; he seemed to "know" them all.
But must close, as fear the waste
basket.
w. Il. Hatton, G.. F.. Werber and
myself are here. Mr.. Werber on his
way home from Washington. D. c.,
and Mr.. Hatton and myself from
Glenn's. We feel like exclaiming as
Richard III in Shakespeare, "a horse

we would like 4 train to Newberry.

The National Economist has the fol-
lowing to say about the Alliance in
South Carolina, and gives Governor
Tillman, especially, to understand that
he must fall ia line or the procession
will tramp right On over him.
We would say to the Economist that
We do dot believe there has been an
effort to create the impression that
there is division in the ranks. There
has been difference of opinion amongst
members of the Alliance in regard to
the sub-treasury plan for instance, and
many ardent Alliance members and
intelligent farmers do not approve of
the scheme, but according % some Of
the leaders they must not express or
even hold such view, or they will have
to get out of the way or be run over.
The Herald and News sincerely
hopes that the people will soon get in
such temper that this, as well as all
other National and State questions, can
be fully and freely discussed, and that
all the people will be given an equal
showing. We like that principle of the
Alliance platform, Equal rights to all
and special privileges to none" There
is where The Herald and News stands,
and will endeavor to occupy that
ground to the end.
But here is the warning sounded by
the Economist:
''The enemies Of the Order are labor
ing to create the impression that there
is split and contention in the Alliance
in South Carolina, but they are only
wasting time and space. The coming
meeting Of the State Alliance at Spar
tanburg, July -, will show the Order
in that State solid phalanx marching
with a fixed determination to secure
reform, and if Gov. Tillnan or any
other person gets in its way he will be
run over, whether member or not"
