tor of this paper for suggestions. ne woulo
pro pose that the Mexican mission be put in
charge OF the native Mexican preachers now
In the pay Of synod. Along the same line. he
would order the return Of all ofour preachers
doctors, orpbanages, medical colleges and
school teachers, and give each OF them wofk
at home among our own people
He would require the Mexican missiona-
ries to make report Of their actings and doings
including definite and specific statement az
to the expenditure Of our money. The peo-
pie q re entitled TO that much. In case report
should not be had he would stop the sending
OF money to Mexico. even to the cutting on OF
the native beneficiaries.
He would require reports showing the labor
performed by missionaries, accomdanieo oy
detin ite statements without evasion as to re
suits. =
He would suggest that all the mission chur-
ches be treated with the same consideration
without showing special or notable favor 10
any.
He would urge the propriety of better saar-
les for preachers.
He would cease to farm out or Inc Female
College, and. would take charge OF 1t even az
Synod now takes charge Of Erskine.
he would raise the salaries OF the teachers
In the colleges at Due West.
The same editor would suggest that practi-
cal effort BIZ made to ascertain the cause, and
remedy for the slow growth OF the church,
and then he would suggest that Syuod make
immediate preparation for applying the rem
edy.
He would urge the better equipment and
the endowment Of the Due West Female Co..
lege. He would change the name OF that COL
lege for two reasons First, 1t Is a church In
stitution and not local school. Second.
there is no sex in school or college, AS well
SAY q female beef market or a female store.
He would appoint citizen Of Due West
TT easurer OF the endowment fund OF Erskine

Finally, he would suggest that the most

a base ball bat with instruction to hit any
man on the head who proposed to offer sug-
gestions TO the Synod.

HODGES and HOnea Path.

The editor OF the Press and Banner went
10 Honea Path last Friday afternoon on a
visit TO his nephew and neices, Wister bigoy
Joel Bigby, and their sisters.
Leaving Abbeville at els. we arrived at
Hodges at 2.4o. On The nain tntrg o'ner'
were Mrs Calhoun going to Greenville to see
her daughters and Miss Annie Baker going
ON q visit to the Misses Bigoy, ana Mrs
Evans. OF Seneca returning home after spend
ing while with kindred in AboeVille
County.
When the train stopped at the station al
Hodges all the passengers left the coach ano
wa learned that the train on the main line
was not due for five minutes. 1t was not
thought necessary to 60 10 the waiting room
for that short time. In little while how
aver we learned that that the train would be
anv.nve minutes late. After taking seats IN
,be waiting room, we learned of wrecked
freight train near Ninety Six and we're told
that the passenger train would not arrive for
several hours.
A. Hodges 1t was estimated by some ol
those who live there, that the receipts o.
cetton at that place would be short GOO bales
and this shortage would materially anec'
collections and sales.
MrJ. w. Moore Of Greenwood came on
the platform. and the crops were not forgot
ten. He said that he "would be OUT one
thousand dollars tor the pleasure OF owning
a tract of land on the Saluda The crop had
an fYered from excessive rains. MIR. Moore Is
nrobate iudge OF Greenwood County and he
ia q man In every way worthy OF the h>gh
Office which he holds.
At nine O'Clock the long looked for traip
arrived. 1t did not tarry but moved en- as
anon az passengers could scramble up the
steps.
DR.. Mac Glymph, formerly Of Hodges but
now OF Anderson, was passenger ana recog-
nized the editor and made himself known.
He is looking well and seems to be prosper
ous. On board was his wife end their three
wear old daughter. She seemed to be inter-
ested in the ed ditor. and he felt complimenteo
at her attention. Her father said that she
had asked him what the editor had on his
head. In explanation he said his little
,daup hter was not used to seeing silk hats.
We were delighted to meet our friend and
former pastor, the Rev. T. w. Sloan, who
was on the train. going home In Greenville
He had been to New York, and had been
preaching in some OF the fashionable
churches OF that city.
Miss Ora Bigby went down TO kirkssy on
Saturday morning. to take charge OF
school In that neighborhood.
The Southern Railway is enlargipg the
station at Honea Path, making an attractive
and convenient building for freight ana

on the issue. l am not in favor OF bringing
Immigrants TO work In the cotton mills, but
am deeply Interested in the movement "

land as settlers, they are more than apt I"
prove good citizens.
The South is abruptly aud squarely against
