Our Schools
A WARM DEBATE.
High school students Discuss Political
Issues.


The debate at the school house last
Wednesday night brought out large
crowd. The subject az stated was :
Resolved, that Warner should be elected
governor Of the state of Michigan.
The speakers were Mr.. Delavan and
MIR. Lockwood on the affirmative, Mr.
Titus and Mr.. Myers on the negative.
The victory was to the negative on a
margin Of two points. Neither side
rad any reason TO be ashamed Of their
work and If the candidates could have
been present they would have patted
themselves on the back and said "How
very virtnous am; what pity that
such citizen as should be under the
influence Of corrupt bosses"
After Mr.. Delavan's speech the audi.
ence were sure that Warner was the
only man in Michigan for governor but
as soon as Mr.. johnson spoke, that idea
was dlspelled ard all felt that il Ferris
was not elected the state would certain
ly go 60 destruction.
Mr.. Titus made one of his points
practical. Mr. Warner said that the
people OF the state OF Michigan weren't
capable of controlling themselves. Mr..
Titus objected strenuously to this, but
on being greeted by Kisses from the
Republican followers agreed that this
was true as far as Warmers adherents
were considered.
Thus the minds OF the audience were
swayed 10 and fro until finally the
judges settled the matter by declaring
In favor Of Ferris II to points.
The rooters turned out in great num-
bers. The Brownies ably supporting
the Warner defenders. The debate
was good one and we hope that the
societies will meet again in friendly
combat.

GET READY FOR ELECTION.

The main thing now, is to make
sure to get to the polls on election
day. We don't need much more
discussion or campaigning. The
people have their minds pretty well
made up on what they intend to do
on election day.
Be sure that you do it, that's all.
Don't imagine that your vote is
not needed.
The tissues of the campaign
have been thoroughly gone over.
As far as Republicans, independents
and Gold Democrats are concerned,
they did not need much discussion,
for the issues as they see them are
the same that were presented to the
voters in 1898, 1900 and 1902. The
only interest aroused among these
voters was whether the Democratic
party had any new issue to present.
1t did not have and was not even
united in its opposition to the issues
presented by the Republican party.
SO the question comes back TO
this: shall we vote as we have voted
in the recent past and keep the
party in power which has a definite
plan of government and legislature
that has been tried and received
the approval of the people, or shall
we seek change, splituP Congress
and install in power an unknown
quantity
There is little doubt as to how
that question will be answered, if
the voters go to the polls. The
only fear is that through over-con-
fdence the men who have sustain
ed the hands of Mckinley and
Roosevelt may not turn out on cleo
ton day and that opposition there
by be permitted to take the prize
by default.
Turn out and vote for your Re-
publican candidate for CONGRESS. A.
B. Darragh, who has served you so
faithfully for the past four years,
who is always ready and willing to
look after your welfare. There are
but few of the old soldiers left in
congress to look after the old veter-
ans of OF, and Congressman Oar
ragh is one of them. Give him a
majority that will make him feel
that the hardshipS he endured on
the southern battlefelds are being
partially rewarded.
Don't forget to vote for Townsend
A. Ely for senator. Town" is the
man who has given Arcadia Town
ship the good roads the farmers
never weary Of talking about and
he will be one of the foremost
advocates Of good roads for the
entire state while in Lansing.
In the person of J. w. Holmes,
the county has man that il is just
ly pr oud of and he will be returned
to the Legislature with the largest
majority ever given a representa-
tive from Grati,t. With his wide
experience Of the past two terms be.
fore him he will stand an excellent
chance of becoming speaker of the
house, position he is eminently
qualified to fill.

REV. CHARLES FRIEND.
Beloved Pastor Leaves for New
Field Off Labor - Pleasant Words
for AbbeyiIIe and Her People.

Editor Press and Banner:
May / trepass once more upon your
kind consideration / have a word
or two to express to the people of
Abbeville, county and town, as we
take our departure after delightful
stay amongst them them.
My people of Long Cane and Little
Mountain, have greatly endeared them
selves to US by their unremitting kind
ness and consideration. For hospi-
tality, cordiality, and sympathetic
attentions, none can surpass them.
1t is privilege to seve them in pulpit
and as pastor. My brother Shive is to
he congratulated on such charge.
I have buried their dead. visited their
sick, preached as faithfully as could,
and, in short, striven in every way in
my power to instruct and comfort
them.
Now, I confidently affirm, that
there are but few Churches anywhere,
presenting grander possibilities than
these. God help pastor and people to
unite heart and hand in developing
this divine work
Since November we have found a
home in one of your families and re-
ceived from that large family connect
ion, such welcome as only few ever
extend to strangers,
AS to the charming hospitality ex-
tended US by great numbers of your
towns people, I can only say that
was as surprising and unmerited as it
was gratefully received by Us.
Permit me to say that Abbeville is
an unusually attractive place for resi-
dence or business. [ was in active
commercial life for years, hence |
knew somthing of business and its
outlook. The stores are attractive.
and prices very reasonable. Never
were more polite and considerate and
fair dealing merchants.
The young men of the place, prove
on close inspection, to be remarkably
free from dissipation, a valuable asset
to any community.
I was favorably impressed with your
Graded School, and it is with pleasure
that endorse Rev. Williams and his
College for Negroes. I
Your homes, your ministers of the
gospel, your public men and officials,
your sidewalks and streets, your
churches, all attract the strangers eye,
and all deserve praise.
Your unsurpassed Winter climate
should lead, and by proper advertising
would lead, [ am sure, scores of Well-to-
do people from the North to Win
ter here. am confident of this.
Mr.. Editor, I must have your paper;
send it, please, to us at Belle Haven Va.
Any Abbevillian will find a hearty
welcome at our at our 'Manse. Our
table will stretch! We were strangers
and We took us in, not in the formal,
heartess way ofthe many, but in your
own large-hearted, big-souled way.
Gods blessings upon Abbeville, coun-
ty and town, is our prayer.
Yours cordially,
