The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1899-06-23

ate and faithful coadjutors up North.
Surely these good people must feel
greatly discouraged and considora-
bly annoyed to think that after all
the ink and paper they have sacri
feed in behalf of the poor negro by
TRADING and calumuizing the barba
rous whites, these same niggers
should stoop to sech Il heiuous crime
Such Il blunder must be very en-
barrassing indeed.
Mr.. j. a. Riser, of tho Freshman
class, and Mr.. G. d. Epting, Of tho
Sophomore class, have gone to Asho-
vile as delegates from the College
Y. M. G. A. to attend the Y. Nj. c. A.
convention which meats in that city.
We'll, Chips, it requires good
deal of nerve to do so, but we have
decided that something must be done
to keep You from capturing The
Herald and News Your constant
bombarding has at last driven Kay
to sock shelter in the distance, and
after he left it seems that tho editor
took fright and ran off too. They
went to Columbia SO as to be under
the Immediate protection of the Gov
ernor should your actions at any
time threaten their safety. Now,
Chips, they know that you arc not
sincere in your plea for their aid il.
getting you al Office down there.
They know very well that your only
purpose in d, string an Office down
there with them is to further intimi
date them and drive them into exile.
Now, Chips, you have played good
hand, but don't let your Success lead
you into the folly of pursuing your
game 80 far from home. or course
they would pluck up courage enough
to show you around, and while they
were doing so, it is very likely the
earth in somo Of those big buildings
would open aud swallow you up.
Then after you were killed what
would you do? Say, Chips, surely
you wouldn' blame anybody but
yourself for it. If you are bent on
boarding the lion in his den, it is
hoped that you will first get that pic
mic boom in good running order so
that if you are never heard of more
we may still have that picnic.
1t seems that great many people
in this country have a great liking
for baseball, and it seems that some
Of our soldier boys have carried this

ipine Islands, for even the humble
Filipinos Insist on having game of
ball with our fellows now and then.
Uncle Sam has played some good
games on his own and nrighboring
diamonds, bnt it is our opinion that
he is taking his team very far from
home to play crowd of follows who
can't pay their own expenses, much
loss those of their guests. Then
what have we TO gain? Why only
few days ago they got up pretty
warm game, and the prospects are
that Uncle Sam will have to send
home for the second nine. After a
while when he has got both mines
over there and demands the organi.
zation Of other mines to tako care Of
tho Hawaiian diamond, and others
for the Porto Rican diamond, and
possibly others for Alaska, and above
all half dozen strong mines for the
homo diamond, won't we be in it?
OF course our patriotism will never
permit us for moment to think
harshly Of burdensome taxation or to
oven breathe treason against our in
fallible leaders Such conduct would
of course be very impolitic, and thou
sands of Catalines would doubtless
be apprehended. The undersigned
doesn't play ball on account of his
timidity as catcher, and because of
an extreme aversion to going ont of
his way to stop balls.
