Gov. Lewelling, of Kansas, announces
that he has received letter from
Copenhagen shipowner saying that com
pany has been formed there to build a
line of ships to run to Galveston, Texas,
there to connect with the populist rail
road that is projected to run from Can
ada to the Texas coast, straight through
the country. If the Danish enterprise is
no nearer completion than the populist
scheme is, it will be many a long day be-
fore western grain is shipped out of Gal
weston by that line of steamers.

Jerry Simpson and sixty other populists
held star chamber meeting at Topeka
Friday night to take action with regard
to the formation of new political party
out of whatever may remain of the pop-
ulist following next year. The meeting
was in response to a secret call, which
bound all who answered the call to pro-
found secrecy. As usual, however, there
was reporter in convenient position to
learn what the meeting did, and this is
what he says of it After first swearing
not to make public their intention. at
present at least, the members denounced

these is the one with regard to which the

We trust the disagreement between
Col. Earle and Senator Butler may be
amicably settled. There is no need for
any misunderstanding. 1t looks to US,
however, that Senator Butler is right
in the matter. We do not see why
Col. Earle should want Senator Butler
to say what he would do in an execu-
tives session of the Senate. The Herald
and News, however, has very high
opinion of Gen. Earle. He made
noble, manly fight in 1880, when he
knew, as every one else did who wanted
to know, that il was hopeless fight
from the Very beginning.
The Herald and News would say, if
it were not for the fact that We do
not want to discuss State politics now.
that We would like to see Gen. Esrle
candidate for Governor in 1894. for We
believe he could DO more to heal the
breach than any other man in the
State. BE is an able man and high
toned gentleman. Some extremists on
both sides would object to him but We
believe he could come nesrer bringing
all factions together than any other
man. For that reason We would like
to see him defeated for district at
torney. But there is no need for a
quarrel between him and General But
Ter.

ELBERT II. AULL, EDITOR.
NEWBERRY, S. C.,
TIE GRADED SCHOOLS.

We call attention to the statement
made in smother column by DR.. ". f.
Pelham in regard to the graded schools.
tisa q matter of regret that the schools
will not be able to run for the full term
as free schools. In 1872 the amount
of money available from the 2-mill tax
was S9O9.45. This year the amount is
$9l6.222. Last year the apportionment
was made on the basis of average at
tendance; this year on the basis of en-
rollment. The average attendance last
year was 423; this year it is $50. If the
law had not been changed the graded
schools would have received about $500
more this year than las: year. 1t
seems the change was made without
the knowledge of many people here.
It was general law and several coun-
ties were excepted and some persons
were under the impression that New
berry was excepted, but it turns out
thst it was not. It is great loss to
the graded schools and not much help
to any of the other schools in the
county. Not enough to he of any ap-
preciable benefit to them. For when
distributed among all the schools in
the county it will not amount to more
than very few dollars to each school.
The schools ought not to lose month
now, for it will disarrange all the
grades. We hope some plan will be
arranged to keep them open for the
full term.

Congressman Latimer says he did
not originate the bright and beautiful
idea Of appointing Conservative and
a Tillmanite to the same postoftice and
let them divide the pay. He ex-
pressed a great deal of SURPRISE" says
the Peoples Advocate, that the papers
should have credited him with so silly
q proposition" The same authority
tells US that "what he did say was that
when the people would come together
and not make fight Oh him he would
recommend one for the postmaster and
the other for an assistant" which
proposition seems to US to be equally
as bright and luminous as the first and
should of course be heartily received
and endorsed, where the people make
no fight on Mr.. Latimer.

GREENvrLLE, March l6.-In the
United States Court the Grand Jury
made its presentment to-day and was
discharged. The jury recommends the
enlargement of the Court and jury
rooms, and also an additional stair
way.
In speaking of Judge Simonton the
presentment says: "We consider him
one of the ablest jurists on the Federal
bench. We think him incapable of
making partial or biased decisions in
cases that may be tried before him. He
is kind and humane, and whilst be is
fearless in the discharge Of his duty as
Judge, he tempers the law with mercy.
We congratulate the people Of South
Carolina upon having such au able and
genial gentleman to preside over the
United States Courts in this State.
Long may he live to grace the
bench"
Judge Simonton feelingly replied to
the grand jury.
This opinion by men Of all political
shades IS rather different from Govern
or Tillman's views.

TIE GRADED SCHOOLS.
The Deficiency in the School Fund Ex-
plained-Shall the Schools be Closed:

The Board of Trustees of the New
berry Graded Schools resolved at re-
cent meeting to close the public schools
on the 18th of April, provided the pa
irons are not willing to supplement the
school fund by payment of tuition fees
during the remaining two months OF
this session. These fees will be sched-
uleo according to the grades. This &C
t;Sa Of the school board has been rem
dered necessary, by the report Of County
Treasurer Boyd herewith appended,
which shows the amount 10 the credit
of this school district to be only $3.50.
This sum will barely pay the expenses
two school months, one Of which ex.
pired on the 18th ult., the monthly pay
roll being S4SS.
The Legislature of 1892 amended the
law relating to the apportionment Of
the school fund, which the two mills
constitutional tax yields, making en-
rollment instead OF average attendance
the basis of distribution. BY this change
the Graded Schools of Newberry are
deprived Of revenue amounting to
$3.50. which sum the Board of Trustees
confidently expected to secure by res-
son of the improved average attend
ance Of the pupils. We do not profess
to understand the wisdom of the
amendment; certain is it that it oper-
ates greatly to the disadvantage of this
community in its school interests. In
addition to this loss, the schools are no
longer beneficiaries Of the Peabody
Fund, that going into other channels,
by direction of those who controlit; the
amount heretofore received was $500.
It will thus be observed that the
schools are deprived this year of total
Of $3.50, and without this sum the
school term must be shortened by two
months. This difficulty will be readily
overcome if the patrons of the schools
will extend their cordial cooperation in
this matter. It is hoped they will real
ize the Importance of meeting the
wishes of the trustees by ready acqui-
escenceto this appeal, thus securing for
their children the benefit Of full term
and obviating any injury to our COM
plete and progressive system, which q
breaS may cause.
add that have prepared this state
ment at the request of the board.
