Election Of Teachers.

Election OF Teachers.
The board of trustees of the Newberry
Graded schools held a meeting on last
Friday afternoons and night for the pur-
pose Of electing teachers for the schools
for the ensuing year. There were SIX
to he elected. ..e.,,o
The result of the deliberations OF the
board was a surprise to many people,
but no doubt the board did what 1t felt
was for the best for the school: Ine
following are the teachers elected:
Miss Godfrey, of Cheraw; Miss iula @
McBeth Jones, of Newberry; Miss
Eloise Weich, of Newberry; Miss l.. 5
O'Neale, of Columbia; Miss K: =:
Habenich of Charleston; Mrs. Anne
Martin, of Davidson, n. g; Mr.. barney
L. Jones of Newberry. -,
Mr.. w. II. Wallace memi r OF the

So then Mr.. Mayb bin has only seventy
one names of freehold voters according
to the official list of the board. That
will give him majority of one. But
on the list Of freehold voters will be
found the names of l.. w. {. Blalock
and Jas. L. Cannon. Mr.. Blalock has
been in Richmond, Va, since last Feb
ruary and is now citizen Of that city.
Cannon has been dead about two
months or longer. He then can hardly
be considered citizen and freehold
voter of New berry. These two names
also appear on the petition of Maybln.
Taking them from both lists will give
the number of freehold voters l39, and
the number of freehold signers 10 Mr..
Maybin's petition slXty-niI Z. Unless
citizen of Richmond and dead man
are counted, it will be seen that, even
by the imperfect list of freehold voters
upon which the board acted, Mr.. May
bin lacks one of having Il majority.
We have no criticism to make of the
action of the board, nor do we question
the fact Of their having acted perfect
in accord with the law as they saw it,
and we only call their attention to this
matter. and ask if a citizen Of Rich
mond and a dead man can be con-
sidered freeholder voters under the
provisions of the dispensary act. If 1T
were necessary We could name several
more freehold voters in the town of
Newberry. But the board has acted
and We presume that settles it for New
berry.
The people are now in possession OF
the facts as we obtained them from the
records of the board through their
clerk.
To secure conplete and absolutely
correct list of the freehold voters OF a
town even of the size of Newberry
would require a good deal of time and
the expenditure Of considerable labor.
The board did not decide upon a
building in which to run the dispen-
sary. Several were examined and at
the meeting on Friday of this week 1t
will be given a habitation.

THE DISPENSER APPOINTED
The County Board or Control Meet and
Appoint K. C. Maybin Dispenser
Has He n Majority of the Free
hold Voters to His Petitione

The county board of contro! for New
berry County held meeting last Fri
day and appointed r. G. Maybin the
dispenser Of liquors for this place. The
Herald and News stated two weeks ago
that be did not have majority Of the
freehold voters to his list, and We have
no reason to change the opinion then
expressed. No doubt that the board
thinks otherwise, for we believe they
intended to act in accordance with the
law.
The board held its session with closed
doors, or rather would not let but one
person appear before them at a time.
Several persons had requested that
their names be taken from the petition,
and in some cases Mr.. Maybin had
been given notice before the petition,
was filed, and in one case be had
promised to take the name oft, but the
petition was filed with all the names
as originally sigued, and the board
said they had an opinion from the
Acknowledgement that a name could
not be taken off after the petition was
filed; so itsstood. This will be lesson
to some persons to be little more care
full in the matter Of signing petitions.
The following is paper presented to
the board at the meeting last Friday:
THEY ASK THESE NAMES sWITHDRAWN.
To the Board of Control for Newberry Coun-
ty-Gentlemen: You will find our names on
one or both of the applications for the ap-
pointment Of a Dispenser for Newberry. We
placed our names there under misapprehen-
sion, and we respectfully ask that they be
erased, as we are not willing 10 be regarded as
Signers when you come to pass upon the ap-
plications. VIM 7. HoUsEAL.

THEY ASK TT
June 9, 1898.

A good many persons signed the petit
ton of Mr.. Maybin thinking that 1t
was not also petition for the estab-
lishment of dispensary. Mr.. Epting
saws that Mr.. Maybin promised him
that he would take his name off, but
did not do it. They were all needed to
make the requisite number, and then
if the board had gotten full and cor
rect list of the freehold voters of the
town he would not have the number,
even leaving on all the names that were
requested to he erased.
Mr.. Sease, the clerk, enquired OF the
Governor if any fee would be allowed
for looking up the correct list, and was
told that there was no provision for
any such allowance, but that the books
of the town clerk and county auditor
were the places from which to secure a
correct list of the freehold voters. No
one can blame the clerk for not caring
to look up the matter without pay, for
it involves a good deal Of labor. But
in order to act intelligently it was nee
essary for the board to have correct
list. They took and acted upon the
list procured from Mr.. Fair, the town
clerk. That list, which we publish
below, contains 141 names. 1t is the
list cotton from Mr.. Fairs book. It is
not complete and the board was told
of two OF three names of freehold voters
that are not on it, but we presume that
for good and sufficient reasons they
did not use them. The following is
the list of freehold voters used by the
board:

Commencement at Prosperity.

SO"uehCcluSHI Z ioePOAHJ'
The commencement exercises of the
Prosperity High School were held on
Wednesday and Thursday evenings a
last week. The Herald and News re-
grets its inability to be present at these
interesting exercises, and also that we
have no report Of them. We have al
ways felt a lively interest in this school
and always feel pride in its success.
The past session we understand has
been very successful one under the
management of Prof. Z. 0. Counts
assisted by Miss Mamie Crooks. -.
The exercises were largely attended
and were very creditable to teachers
and pupils. We can do no more than
give the programmes Of both evenings
which We do. Wednesday evening,

commenced. The following is the pro-
gralnme:

The occasion was one to be enjoyed
by all visitors, whether from home or
abroad. The building was neatly deco
rated, and on the back wall of the ros-
trum these words were seen, "Educa-
ton is the Hope of our Country"
The curtain would open and close
between acts, and at the closing of the
curtain the orchestra of that place
would give sweet music to the audi
ence. The scholars did well, worthy
Of commendation.
The school closed with Thursday
nights exercises for the summer, to be
opened the first Monday in September.
A Card of Thanks.
In making preparation for the closing
exercises of school, we have had ex-
tended to US numerous courtesies in
many ways. We are grateful for these,
for however small the favor may have
appeared to you, to as it was need,
and therefore, valuable. We would es-
pecially mention the valuable services
rendered by the orchestra whose melo-
dies brought forth repeated applause
from the audience. TEACHERS,
