SAVINGS BANKS.

There is nothing the South so much
needs to learn and practice as habits OF
economy and saving. We, as a rule,
make plenty, but we have not learned
to save it. One Of the greatest educa-
tors in this line is savings banks. we
have one in Newberry, and we trust
our people who desire to put oy s1nall
portions of their earnings are taxing
advantage of it. We would like TO see
tried here nickle savings bank, a
place where every school child could
have bank account. In this way our
children would be brought up with
habits of economy and saving incul-
Gated from their earliest realization OF
the value of a nickle. There is room
for lust such an institution in NeWoer-
ry. Properly managed it would soon
he found that there Was demand for
it.
The following on this subject is from
the Baltimore -1duAloNtcASA .
"The savings.banks Of Baltimore nave
$50, 100000 to the credit of l24,ooO de-
positors, an average Of bout S3l5 each.
It is a habit Of Baltimoreans, however
moderate their circumstances, to save
little by little and to deposit it in some
savings bank, and the result is seen ID
this great total of nearly S4o,0Oo,ooo'
The South must do the same thing
It's people must be trained to save, and
instead of hiding their money away
where it brings them 10 returns and
Yields no benefits to the community
they must he educated to the use o1
savings banks. The amount OF idle
money now hid away in the South
would, if it could be aggregated IN this
way, be of immense advantage to TINS
whole section"

CONGRESSMAN Johnstone Down on Springer
Especial to Baltimore SUD-.

OpSC1Q1 w 11O4tAAAAOAS h~A'I
WASHINGTON, D. c., January l2.-Many
Democratic congressman, especially those
from agricultural districts, repudiate MIR.
Springer's leadership, SO far as the free
silver question is concerned. He was
roundlv denounced to-day by several
well known Southern members, who are
uuhinching advocates of free silver to the
extent that they want silver dollars to
contain a hundred cents worth of silver
and be received on a par with a hundred
cents worth Of gold. Representatlve
Johnstone. of South Carolina, declared
in the presence of a number Of his asso-
ciates that it would be cowardly for he
Democratic party to run away from the
silver question because few New England
men. who call themselves Democrats,
threaten to bolt the party If silver bill
is passed. 1T will never do" continued
Mr.. Johnstoue, with marked earnestness.
for the rank and file Of the Democratic
party to cater to such an element as that.
The Democrats all through the South
and West expect to see the present Con-
gress pass silver bill, whether it pleases
the New Englanders or not"
LII Is quite certain d uete1iAln !ioi
will be made to adopt some definite silver
legislation during the present session.
There is no Disgusting the fact. the silver
men are very strong in the House and
they appear to be in good fighting con-
dition IN the Senate. The conservative
business men in Congress and throughout
the country realize that no good can come
of further agitating the question now,
and it remains to be seen whether they
will be able to hold in check the rampant
silyeriteS.

vote for Harrison, and the news comes
from Washington therefore that negro

There will undoubtedly he two con-

Editor Stokes has joined the other
newspaper doctorsn and "cranks," as
he terms them, and the last issue OF the
Cotton Plant, advises the farmers to
plant less cotton. you don't, believe it
is good advice, brother, you should pro-
test against it, even though you see the
people are inclined to adopt the advjcc
of these "cranks.n 1t is more manly
to resist the current than to drift with
the stream. But we always welcome

That was rather a small advantage
the committee, to formulate rules for
the government of the primaries, took
of the State in giving the information
to the other dailes and not to it, espe-
cially as a reporter made application
for The matter.
The Executive Committee ought to
remember that it is presumed to repre-
sent the entire Democracy ofthe State,
and such things as this will not help to
bring about a reunited people. 1t is
very difficult, however, for some people
to rise above self.

Judging from the quality ., the print

great economy is being practiced in

representations ot the typographical
art?-Aiken Journal and Review.

mind when We received copies Of the

The Herald and News would be
pleased to have some one to answer the
facts and figures given elsewhere by
"Civis." From figures and Argument
used by him, the free coinage of silver
will not help the people, except those
few who are interested in the mining OF
silver. According to "Civis" the free
coinage will not increase the circula-
ton either. We would be glad to have
some one who is familiar with the facts
to answer and explain the point raised

SEVERAL TRAINS TAKEN OFF.
Another Shave by the K. s Discrepancies
and Laborers Dropped.
1.-The State. 18th.

1J1S AlStlSt A|NA>'
The seri Gus depression OF the money
market and the stagnatlon of all busl-
ness is having its effect on the rail-
roads. and the Richmond and Danville
system seems to be suffering badly
from this cause. The South Carolina
and Columbia and Greenville divisions
speci ally have felt the total stoppage
of all freight shipments, and Superln-
tendeut Dodson has decided to meet
the difficulty in the only way possible.
He says that no guaro and lumber
are being shipped anywhere, and there
is nothing for the freight trains to 90.
This time last year five trains were
travelling over the G. & e. division,
while now one train every other day
does all the business necessary.
AS matters now stand the road can
not pull through the next month, and
therefore Superintendent Dodson has
decided to take of three freight trains
at once-one "Ghrough" and one
and one "locap on the G. & G.
'locar' on the c., G.. & A. division.
The mixed train between Greenville
and Newberry, which has been run
ming Qal4y, Will uCieai'ei i"h Why
every other day.
Col. Dodson states also that while
he regrets the necessity has arisen he
will have to cut off q good many of bis
carpenters and a large number OF
laborers in the shops here for the re-
mainder of the month. He expects
things to recover from their paralyzed
condition by February ! and says that
then he will put all the traius and en-
ployee5 back:
He says that it is also very probable
that he will have to reduce the work
ing time at the shops from nine to
seven hours per day.
Mr.. Dodson states that the road has
not hauled dozen carloads of guano
this season and he has never seen so
many engines standing idle in around
house Of any road.
