AS we'll rs we can make ont now, the
object Of extending the run of the shut
tie train from Prosperity to Columbia
is to enable people to go TO Columbia
IN the afternoon, stay all night and
leave in the morning. Why should any
body go TO Columbia to spend II night
while it ls possible now to come to
to business and get home tho same duy.
If the State newspaper is so cugcr to
leave Columbia before the News and
Courier gets there why doesn't it put
on push car, charter Al special engine
or do something else that Is brilliant
and dashing? It's present purpose
seems to be entcrprising at the expense
of one Of tho corporations against
which its l6 to princi Piles arc perpct-
ually at war.-Grcenvillc News.
Not at all. We arc sorry to note that
your comprehension on this subject has
been dull all along. 1t is to save peo-
pie who want to go to Columbia on
business that can be attended to in ono
day The loss of three days from home.
And this applies to the people along
the road from Anderson to Prosperity.
AS 1T is now, 1T spoils three days to 60
to Columbia. We have no objection to
people going to Greenvilo. In fact
we think 1t may in the future be q good
place to go to, but just now with the
number of murders reported there cvcrv
week it might be said it is good place
to get away from, but the extension of
this train to Columbia, as we are try
ing to have it, would give more people
the opportunity to go to Grccnvillc.
Even the people who live in Columbia
and have to spend the night there
would have an opportunity to go to
Grccnviile and to spend the day with
out interfering in the least with those
who now enjoy that privilege, and they
could all get home the same day. WHY
then should the Greenville News object
to the train starting from Columbia?
Why should 1t not encourage us and
help us to ask the authorities extend
the service? r..
AS to the hit at the State newspaper
which the News undertakes to make
we have nothing to do with this, though
we think 1t Is altogether uncallcd for
and not in good taste as this train il
not asked in the interest of any news |

When the war with Spain began we
thought it right and proper that the
negro should bear part Of the burden
and be permitted to enlist in the volun-
terr army. The behavior of the negro
soldiers at the various camps convinccs
us that We were wrong, and that it was
mistake to accept any of them in the
volunteer Amy. They seem incapable
of behaving properly, and a few stripes
and brass buttons have made fools of
them. They have not yet reached the
point whore they can stand the least
promotion, if we arc to Judge by the
actions of the soldiers of the various
camps. In battle they made good
fighters, but they seem hard to discip-
line, and after We arc through lighting
the enemy it looks as if it will be ncccs-
sary to keep an army to discipline our
own soldiers. That is the reason it
looks as If it were mistake to permit
tho negro to volunteer.
