More Pledges Wanted.

While it is believed that the num-
Der of pledges to reduce the cotton
acreage and the use Of fertilizers,
which haze been signed by the far
mers of Newberry county, is cons1d-
erablv larger than the number of $50
reported to the executive committee
of the cotton growers association on
last Saturday, yet many more pledges
from the cotton planters are desired
bv the executive committee, and the
canvass will be continued. 1t is only
a short time now until the crop Will
have been planted, and the cotton
planters who have not yet done so
are Urged to sign the pledge. 1t is
generally conceded that a heavy crop
this year will be disastrous to the
south.

Not Third Regiment Flag.

Mr.. w. G. Peterson, Of Newoerry,
writes as follows to the COLUMBIA
State:
| notice that the flag of the Third
Regiment, S. C.. v, is mentioned IN
the State as one of the Confederate
battle flags now being returned to
South Carolina by the secretary OF
war under the direction OF congress.
So far as the flag of the Third Reg-
i1nent is concerned, it is a mistake to
say that is has been Or will be return
ed. It was never captured. The flag
was brought back by the survivors in
April, 1865, when they returned to
their homes after their four years
struggle. and though the banner I'M
der which they fought was torn and
battered by shot and she'll on many
a battlefield. it is still preserved in
good shape at Laurens, and has been
,sed on several memorable anniver-
saries of the wal and subsequent occa-
sions incident thereto, and in which
the survivors Of the command parti-
cipated.

ON THE DIAMOND.
Newberry. Played Erskine in Due
West Yesterday-To Play Wot-
ford in Spartanburg Today.

Having defeated both Erskine and
Woford on the local diamond, the
Newberry college base ball team left
on the early train over the Southern
yesterday morning to try conclusions
with Erskine on the Erskine diamond,
at Due West, and with Woford on
the Woford diamnd, in Spartanburg.
The game with Erskine was played
yesterday afternoon and the Woford
game takes place in Spartanburg this
afternoon. The Newberrians when
they boarded the train yesterday
morning were in high spirits and con-
fident of winning both games.
Next week Newberry will take a
trip into Georgia and show the
Georgians how to play ball. The first
game will be with the University OF
Georgia, in Athens, on Wednesday,
April II. From Athens Newberry
will 60 to Atlanta, where two games
will be played with Tech, on Friday
afternoon, April "a, and Saturday al
ternoon, April IS.
\ game on the local diamond
which is being looked forward to
with a great deal of interest by all
the local fans is that with Clemson on
Saturday afternoon, April 20. Fol
the past several years Clemson has
won from Newberry, but always by
the narrow margin Of one score. This
wear it is conceded that Newberry
easily has the strongest team III hel
history, and those who have seen the
gameAplayed by Newberry this sea-
O are confidently expecting her tc
win from Clemson.

THE DEBT.
Petition for Election Upon Question
of Funding it-A Business
Proposition

In accordance with action taken by
CITY council at a recent meeting, Pc
titions are now being circulated
among the freeholdezs Of the city
asking council to order an election
upon the question of funding the
floating debt of the city, amounting
to $4,000, the bonds to run for twen-
ty-Eive years. Under the constitution,
il the debt is funded, it will be neces-
sary to provide a sinking fund to re-
tire the bonds.
The election can be ordered by
council upon the petition of a MAORI
ty Of the freeho1ders, and there
seems to be no reason why the names
of a majority of the freholders should
not be secured.
1t is a plain business proposition.
It is proposed to fund the debt at not
exceeding five per cent. interest,
which would mean a saving to the
taxpayers in interest of about 500
per year, or a levy of one-half mill
upon the taxable property of the
city.
