THE NEWBERRY HERALD AND M
About Liens.

Something is said very frequently
about the lien law, and its bad effects
OIL the one hand are discussed, while
on the other We are frequently told
that it is the great boon OF the poor
man.
Possibly some persons would he in
tcrested in knowing to what extent
that law is used in Newberry County.
We have endeavered to ascertain that
fact and will give you the result of our
Investigation on that line.
During the present year there have
been recorded in the Clerks Office at
Newberry, 2,37I liens for advances Of
supplies -rations-bread and meat and
corn, and possibly some little clothing
and dry goods. The total amount
which these 2,371 liens represent is in
round numbers $l78,000. That will
take, at the present price, about six
thousand bales of cotton.
We don't know whether this lien
law has been of any benefit to these
237l persons in Newberry County or
not, but they were not compelled TO
use it unless they wanted to-.
The average amount Of each lien is
not over $50

An Inpromptu Dance.

An impromptu dance was given at
the armory of the Newberry Rifles on
Monday night.
The Italian band had been in New
berry for several days and the young
folks decided to get up a dance While
they could get some good music.
The weather was not suspicious, but
that did not deter the flow of merri-
ment and pleasure, and it was in the
small hours of the morning before the
happy party disbanded.
The following were present:
Misses Cornelia Coppock, Matte Nc

SOME FIGURES.
A Balance shcet-There is Need for Us to
Get Together and Help Each Other.

Cotton at six cents makes things
look a little blue. If the people did
not owe anything it would make but
little difference, but that price for cot
ton does not go far towards paying
debts
It is we'll, however, to take OCCASION
allv Balance sheet and see just how
YOU stand. It helps in laying plans for
the future and in applying the re-
sources you have On hand.
The cotton receipts at Newberry last
wear were about II, 900 baies-she total
crop for the county, we suppose, was
about $4,000 bales.
The present crop IS said to be short:
But say that the crop will reach 2o,oOO
bales and that the receipts at NeWoerry
will reach $1,000 bales. That would
give US at present prices about S12O, ,O0O
for the county and s4j0,COO for New
berry.
Now what have we got to pay with
this money. The amount due the
bank by the farmers is about $3.50, ,Oo0
and to the merchants for groceries and
dry goods is about $4,000, making a
total ofS525, 600.
These figures are not accurate, buS
they are approximately correct: An
other item Of Indebtedness that is not
included in the above is the guano,
which amounts in round numbers TO
$4,000, which makes the total So1o,OO00
Que here in the town of Newoerry, ana
il does not include many lterns.
To pay this there will be sold here
saw $1,000 bales of cotton at $40 q bale,
which only realizes $50, 900.
But then we must remember there
are some other sources of revenue to
the farmers, such as butter,- eggs and
chickens for all of which they realize
considerable money.
The farmers, too, this year lave
made in nearly every case enough corn
to run them, and until this is done
every year times will never get better
in this country.
These figures should demonstrate one
thing, that we are mutually dependent
one upon the other. The farmer and
the man who lives in the country
needs the merchant and the bank, and
they in turn need the farmer
Let rs then cease this warfare on
one another and 60 to work to help
each other and thereby help ourselves.

ALL FOR THE STATE FAIR.
peal to the People and Gives Useful
Suggestions and Advice.
THE State, l1th.l

uS SIatS, Iilu. .-...
The coming State Fair is now, in
view Of its nearness, beginning to ex-
cite considerable inserest. The great
necessity for Columbia to do some
thing at once towards arranging for
the entertainment of the visitors,
and the calling Of the initial meeting
of the fair association for that purpose,
was mentioned yesterday.
Now comes the secretary of the
State Fair Society with the following
interesting announcement, directed to
The State:
'sNow, since the unprecedented po-
litical excitement has to very great
extent subsided, I beg to say to all
who earnestly desire to assist in the
material interes.s of the State to give
their attention in arranging to become
exhibitors at. the approaching State
Fair, November 7th to 1Ith.
"The various railroads running to
Columbia have done more than any
one class in making our annual fairs
successful without the Eberality OF
these lines the fairs would have been
failure. To them, therefore, the
thanks Of the public are due.
"My connection with the State Fair
since its organization in 1857, except
during the war and for two years
thereafter, enables me to be cognizant
of the difficulties that have been sur
mounted in reaching the success CT
which every true South Carolinian
should be proud.
"These annual gatherings bring our
people together from all sections of the
State to compare one with another
the products of the soil and the
stock raised in the various sections OF
our State. And it is here that our
people become better acquainted with
each other, and a strong bond of union
is thus frequently formed that ends
only in death. Then, let US, with re-
newed effort, be prepared to give one
week to the enjoyment Of this festal
occasion.
"And especially is the State Fair, cal
culated to do good after the angry
strife of this year. No kind of politics
can, of itself and in itself, promote
South Cardinals substantial growth.
The State does not now need the
orators eloquent tongue or the poll
tician's promises. She needs the op-
ulent returns of workship and farm.
Her heroes now in demand are the he.
roes of foundries and the sovereigns of
soil. So let US, friends and fellow citi-
zens, have rousing State Fair. Let
Us be up and doing, and see to it that
South Carolina shall not lag behind
in The material march of the daY,
Let her head the industrial column,
and make good her old motto: sPre-
pared in courage and resources" to
meet the times in which we live. She
met the time of war; let US, Heaven
help US, meet the better times of peace.

The crops of this section are not as
poor as they are in some sections, yet
there is a great falling off compared
with last year. There will be about IS
per cent. of crop made all around.
While this is the case, still the people
are not suffering, for they have pro-
vided themselves with abundance of
necessities at home and are not de-
pendent upon the cotton crop alto
gether.
Little Mountain is a thriving little
village in the midst of these hard
times and the merchants are having
very little trouble in collecting. All
the cotton of the section is sold here,
at the highest market prices. The
people are proud of the section, and it
is worthy pride. The health is su-
perb.
Considering the size of the place tine
amount of business done is astonish-
ing, Besides, Mt. Tabor is only mile
of, which also has good business.
Then a mile further is the Union AL
lance Store at Sligh's, which has a
very large trade. Prosperous indeed
we are.
