The readers of The Herald and News
will remember that during Gov. Till
mans administration the Agricultural
Hall, II building belonging to the State,
was sold. When payment was ten
dcrcd some of the Blue Ridge scrip was
offered. 1t was refused and properly,
but not only SO possession Of the build
ing was refused the purchaser, and an
armed guard was placed at the door,
Suit WINS commenced and the case ran
the gauntlet Of all the courts, and now
tho Supreme Court Of the United States
says the purchaser must have the build
ing and tho dispcnsary will have to
move quarters and pay back ront.
Tho State has been in litigation now
for six yoars and nearly every time she
comes out !, ser. The Coosaw case was
won, but the winning of it crippled the
phosphate mining business and greatly
reduced the income from this source.
1t was really II dearly bought victory.
Now we lose tho Hall case besides q
lot of improv, mcnts done to the build
ing to fix 1T up for our big grog shop.
We should by this time have enough of
lawsuits aud continual litigation.

ceivcd present OF some wines from Il
kinsman. The wines were packed in
his trunk and the trunk, with all its
contents, including clothing and other
chattclS, was promptly appropriated
by honest spies in Charleston. The
honest spies declare that it WAS shipped

clare in turn that it was never received
But the gentleman whose money
bought the trunk and clothes in it has
heard not one word from it. 1t is
gone, and sforcver, for we live in Il
State where the privilege is given by
law to certain men to steal with ilnpun-
ity.-(hccnvillc News.
This sounds little scvorc but when
you reduce the situation TO its last
analysis You will be forced to the con-
clusion that ii is very nearly, if not
entirely, apropcr and correct diagnosis
of the case. Taking and appropriating
To your own use that which does not
belong to You is nothing moro nor less
than stealing. There is certainly some
thing gricvously wrong somewhere and
the sooner it is removed the better for
the good morals and tho healthy de-
vclopmcnt and health Of the State.

struck our heart as We stood ucar the
rock that contained the name of our

beautifully decorated with flowers and

dolcful nature were sung, and quite an
appropriate prayer was offered by Rev.

RAILROAD TO NEweERRy

The peop'e OF the new town OF Salu-
da, the county seat Of the new county
OF Sa.G0a, III Carolina, are going 10
worl. - make Saiuda an Important
place. They realize that railroad facil-
tiles are one of the first rcquirem nts,
and have lost no time in getting 10
work to secure u railroad.
The projected railroad from Augusta
10 Ncwberry passes through The town
of Saluda, aud the people of Saluda,
Edgeiicld and Ncwbcrry, are uniting in
an effort to push that road to compile
ton. The line has not only been sur.
vcycd, hut has been graded all the way
to Ncwbcrry. The right of way and
the graded limo belong to the people
along the line, an,i they are ready to
turn these over to any company that
viii! give u guarantee to build the road.
1t is an opportunity for some company
To acquire without cost what is very
expensive portion Of every railroad.
The company that will undertake the
building of the Augusta. E.dgciield and
Ncwbcrry rail ,d will escape all this
expense and get Il graded roadbcd free.
The people OF Augusta should mani
fest lively intcre.t in this matter.
! he road would be valuable feeder
for Augusta and would bring into easy
access and close touch with our com
mcrcial interests II fertile aud valuable
section Of South Carolina. The public
meeting held at Saluda in the interest
of tho enterprise passed resolutions en-
dorsing Hon. Patrick Walsh for prcsi-
dent. and Hon. George Johnstonc, of
Ncwbcrry. for vice president. to move
in the matter of organizing Il company
and procuring carital for building the
road. 1t is n pr.iseworthy enterprise,
and our Carolina friends are moving in
the right direction in seeking railway
connection with the rest of the world.
Here is success to the railroad.
gusta Chronicle.
We are glad to see our cotcmporary
TAX ing hold of the railroad and we hope
it will he able to arouse the people OF
Augusta to the Importance of speedily
building it. This1oad will be worth
more to Augusta and Augusta mcr-
chants than to any other section
through which it goes.
TO those of us at Edgcfcld and Salu-
da and Newbcrry it will bc Il great con-
vcnicncc but commercially speaking it
will put within easy reach Of Augusta
II rich and prosperous section Of coun-
try that is naturally tributary to it.
In addition to this, this road goes
through section OF country that real
~ needs Il railroad. Let lis get tugcth-
rr and push it along to an early com
