TO HELP HUMANITY.

The dedication of the Anna Rus
sell Cole Auditorium at the Ten
nessee Industrial School, is a happy
reminder that such an institution
exists in Tennessee, and that it is
fOstered by the strong arm of the
State. About seven hundred boys
and girls are being cared for at this
Industrial home, when they are be-
ing prepared in practical way for
an even start in the battle of life.
Better than the homes of half the
children on the outside, is this home
on the inside of this enclosure.
Here they are taught the first
great lesson of life, obedience and
discipline; lesson sadly neglected
in many homes otherwise highly
favored.
Here they are taught the common
school branches, while at the same
time they are learning habits of in.
dustry by applying their hands tC
some useful trade; and here they
are made to observe the laws Of
health, being fed, not on sweets and
nick nacks, but on wholesome food
here they are early to bed and early
to rise; they have their time fol
work, time fer play and time fol
study; place for everything and
everything its place.
What mistake the State makes
by not having more such schools OF
homes; and it seems to US that q
practical way to settle the convict
labor question, would be to put them
to work building the houses, fences
ETC., for such schools in a dozer
different places over the State.
Instead of enlarging the pene
Tertiary, build homes and industrial
and training schools. Instead Of
preparing to punish as convict,
those who are born in sin, nnrtureC
in poverty and trained in crime
why not rescue them while they are
young and develop them into mer
and women.
The penitentiary is breeder o
crime; it Is question if it does no
harden more men than it cures; /
doubtless damns more lives than il
saves. 1t is a necessary evil, per
haps, but as a civilizing, uplifting
promoter of better morals, or ever
as a means to prevent crime, it is t
failure.
Time and experience have demon
strated alike the weakness of GU
criminal code and the demand fo
something better, more effective
AS ian ounce of prevention is worth
a pound of cure" so may that "sOme
thing better" found in the State In
dustrial School.
If this legislature would establish
three of these Industrial schools il
each grand division of the State
future generations would rise up to
call them blessed

him. Miss Addie Lipscomb, sister
of the bride, acted as Maid of Hon

0. l.. Schumpert, concerning whose
candidacy for Governor very much has
been written Of late, says again that he
is in the race to stay. He was called
upon at Greenwood by hundred or
more citizens and in the course Of q ten
minutes speech said: 81 am in the
race to stay until the people choose be-
tween u.s." Mr.. Schumpcrt is as worthy
Il man as South Carolina ever produced.
He is not as we'll known generally
throughout the State rs some, but
where he is known he is honored and
respected for his ability, his patriotism
and his sterling worth. While the
Herald suggested him as candidate
perhaps before any other newspaper, it
is not our purpose to become his organ
or to champion his cause to the detri-
mcnt Of any other candidate. We pro-
pose when the campaign comes on to
treat all the candidates with perfect
fairness. We are tied to no man,

An ex-Newberry man makes quite 4
mistake. He fools the people of whom
| large per cent. was his own kindred,
but says it was done unintentionally.
Mr.. Nj. ID. Kinurd, of the Piedmont
section, Grcenvine County, came into
this section about five or six weeks ago
to visit his old friends and relatives.
He went around for several weeks sell
ing tinware and what he supposed to
be Buncombc cabbage seed. He sold
! somc seed at almost every house in this
section, black and white. Some of the
women sOwcd their seed rs soon us they
bought them, and when they came up
| they turned out to be nothing more than
ordinary salad. Mr.. Kinard says that
he bought the seed from II Mr.. Jones,
Of North Carolina, Buncombc County,
for pure genuine cabbage seed and sold
them for the Same. He also said that
he had all confidence in Mr.. Jones, and
! That he had bought seed from him be-
fore which had proven TO be alright
Mr.. Kinard seems to be very much
worried over the matter, and wishes TO
say to all those who purchased seed
from him that the mistake or wrong
| was that Of Mr.. Jones and not Of his,
whether 1t was done Intentionally or
unintentionally and hopes that none Of
his kindred or friends will think that
he Intentionally practiccd fraud upon
them. This statement is made by spc-
cial request of Mr.. Kinurd. viii the
Observer and Voice be so kind to Mr..
Kinard as to copy.
