Do Good-It Pays.

A Chicago man has observed that,
s'Good deeds are better than real estate
deeds-some of the latter are worthless.
Act kindly and gently, show sympathy
and lend a helping hand. You cannot
possibly lose by it," Most men appreci-
ale kind word and encouragement more
than substantial help. There are persons
in this community who might truthfully
say: my good friend, cheer up. A few
doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
will rid you of your cold, and there is no
langer whatever from pneumonia when
you use that medicine. 1t always cures

Minneks Of the Press Association

esident Elbert H. Aull, of the State
Press Association, has sent US the minutes
of that body from 1877 to 1888, compiled
from the flies of the News and Courier
We have derived much pleasure from
reading them. We find that in those days
most of the meetings were held in Char
lesion and that F. w. Dawson and j. e.
Hemphill were prominent figures. The
people of Charleston royalty entertained
the newspaper men at thosetimes. Edit
! or Dawson vas especially hospitable and
&gracions to his brethren, and it is not to
ne wondered at that he had so many
friends amorg the fraternity.
We find several names prominent in
the organization then who seem to have
dropped out now, although they are still
( in the newspaper business. Some have
gone into other lines of work, and Others
Ahaye joined the silent majority. The
me of N. G. Gonzales appears for the
time in 1887, We believe, he reporting
he meetings for the News and Courier.
Both he and his chief have been laid low
by the assassin's bullet. There are the
names of Hoyt, Holmes, Osteen, Crews,
Wilson, and other veterans who are still
8 in harness, although some of them do not
fsend the Association meetings in these
er days.
Nwere much pleased with the annual
Of Bro. J. w. Holmes, of the
6en People, which was made at one
these meetings and published in the
miRutes. 1t is an eloquent and scholarly
PRODUCTION, and we regret that he seems
haVe lost interest in the Association.
nnerusal of the proceedings OF these
gs has been of much pleasure to Us,
e trust of profit as well, and the
niger editors of the State viii NO doubt
appreciate them fully as much as wedo.

Against the Bell Telephone
Company.
Money Found to Be Due Under
Terms Of a Contract Made
in 1879.

Boston, Oct, S.--By a decision Of the
United States court Of appeals, the
western Union Telegraph company
wins a suit which will bring into it's
treasury $3.600,000, the American Bell
Telephone company paying the bill,
The suit was brought originally to
compel the telephone company. to sac-.
count for shares Of stock of companies
licensed by it. which were received for
rentals of telephones. The telephone
company claimed the shares aggre-
gated $4,000, 900 and that by virtue Of
a contract between itself and the tele-
phone company, the latter was: bound
to pay it 20 per cent Of such rentals, as
we'll as 20 per cent@of cash rentals tax
en- in New England.
Nov. TO-, 1879, the Western !. Union
company and the Bell company en-
tered into a contract whereby the
former gave the latter exclusive use
would obtain and transfer others SINH
larly and would ] withdraw from
the manufa cture, rental and use of
telephones, thus giving the Bell com
pany monopoly Of the telephone
business So far II as the Ia Western
telephone company promised to give
the telegraph company 20 per cent Of
the rentals of telephones as royalty
| on the patents transferred.
! After the contract was made, the
Western Union charges, the telephone
| company changed its methods of BUSH
| ness, receiving instead Of all cash for
| the use Of telephones both cash and
stocks for all stock. It gave the
telegraph company no part of such
stocks received and esthe Western
Union finally sued, alleging that s1S,-
! 100000 had been received in stocks.
| The United States circuit. court
found for the defendant, deciding the
telegraph company could not recover
on stocks received as rentals. The
United States court Of appeals holds
thatsthe stock was rental, the same as
cash, and that the telegraph company
had right to recover 20 per cent Of
