cALvIs's GREAT WORK.

John Calvin, the thinker and schol-
ar, advanced the idea that God is
supreme, and not princes or popes.
His ~battle-cry was: Fear God and
not the pope" And around this dis
tlnctive idea Of Gods sovereignty
another great people rallied which has
been known as the Presbyterian
Church. One church rallied around
the supremacy Of the Scriptures, with
Justification BY faith as an allied
truth, while the other people crystal
lied around the sovereignty Of God.
Both Calvin and Luther accomplished
Mexico weekly ledger., 1906-09-13

He stood for the word Of God against
tradition. His work cut the channel
for all the other needed WORK. His
work was to give the Scriptures to
the people. He declared that all we're
equally near TO God and the Bible.
All had a right to read 1t and inter-
pref IT for themselves. This was the
slogan OF Luther, this was the kernel
OF his work. We honor Lutber's name.
He was Gods man.

THE COURT HOUSE.

The location Of the court house
was the main topic Of conversation
by the people who came to town on
Saturday. We heard very few who
approved the location selected and yet
one gentleman who has been active
in commencing the action of the COM
mission told us that he had heard sew
eral hundred say it was the best place
in town. So there You have it.
SO far as we arc concerned we cam
not understand how anyone who is
disinterestcd can approve the selec-
ton.
If any individual we're going to
spend good sum to build him
handsome residence he would want
site upon which he could erect
building that would and could be
seen before you got right at it. Es-
pecially should this be the case with
a public building.
Our position is that in the sclec-
tion of a site the commission should
not have been governed by the ono
that cost the least money but should
have gotten such one as would be
best suited for the purposes of pub
lie building, not only looking at the
present, but with view to the fu-
turc. And if none Of the sites offer
cred met these requirements then
another place should have been
taken if it could have been procured
even though it was not offered.
Then there are those who think
there should be no court house built
at all.

Although it may seem incredible it is
a fact that not so many years ago
Christmas was considered q aSsupersti-
tious festival and was stopped being
held by the strong hand Of the law.
Holly and mistletoe were destroyed
and were called "the plants of tho
evil one." Cakes and wines were
considered impious by the supersti-
tious.
When Oliver Cromwell was protect
or, he ordered all of the ! most i'm
portant towns in England not to OBJ
serve Christmas, as he considered it
to be. a hurtful custom. =
Yet stricter law he commanded to
be kept so that people, might forget
Christmas. That was that all the
markets were to be held on December
25. ..... .:.,,5 @sl
Naturally this created a great stir
among the country folk, and they de-
termined thenceforth to refuse to
obey his strict and extraordinary. law,
which he tried to enforce, but all to
no purpose.

LUCAs-M1LLIKEN FIGHT ENDS.
A Satisfactory Solution of the Issues
Involved Has Been Reached in
Fight for Laurens and Dar-
lington Mills Control.

The State Of Sunday contained the
following in reference to the dispute
between Lucas and Milliken for con-
troll of the Laurens Mill property:
The hard fought fight between the
*Milliken interests and the Lucas fac.
ton has been settled, it is authorita-
lively announced, and there has been
reached an agreement rs to the
4 Si1anrens and the Darlington cotton
mills, for the control of which the
contest .Sq,nt has waged for nearly a year.
sS TITS stated that nh. agreement has
been reached by representatives Of
'Millken and Lucas by which Milliken
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1906-04-10

and his associates agree to purchase
the stock Of Lucas and his associates
| in both the Laurens and the Darling
ton mills. The price to be paid for
the Laurens mill stock is said to be
$40 per share Of par value Of 800
and market value Of $160. The agreed
price for Darlington stock is to be
$65 per share, quoted at $50 on the
market. .-.. =
This will mean the retirement OF
Mr.. Lucas from the management of
these two properties and the control
Of both Of them by Mr.. Milliken and
his associates. The origin and issues
involved in the fight for the control
of the two mills are familiar to the
reading public, as much has been pub
lished concerning the matter within
the last few months. There arose a
disagreement as to policy between
Mr.. w. E. Lucas, president and or
ganizcr of both the mills, and the
members of the firm of Deering, Mil
liken & Co., who held large blocks of
stock in the concerns. It was claimed
by Mr.. Lucas that the Millikens de-
sired to obtain control of the proper
ties in order to continue the sale Of
the products through their firm as
commission merchants when Mr.. Lu-
cas- had found that he could sell his
goods to better advantage through
another firm, which charged small
Ell commission. There were charges
and counter-charges on this line and
the matter has been taken into both
the state and federal courts, with in
functions and so forth from both
sides. Now the dispute is settled to
the seeming advantage of both sides,
since Mr.. Lucas, while he loses control
of the mills, will obtain for the stock
the prices he demanded last year
from the Milliken faction. Mr.. Lu-
cas- is also president of the Watts
mill, which is not involved in this
controversy, and it is likely that he
will devote his entire time to that con-
Germ, which is Of itself a splendid
property. Mr.. Lucas has been in i'll
health for some time, but has recently
been reported better.
The annual meeting of tie LaWens
mill stockholders is held in May, but |
a meeting has been called for next I
Friday morning at 10 o'clock. It is
understood that the agreement now
reached between the two factions will
be ratified at this meeting, which will
)e held in the Offices Of the Laurens
mill at Laurens. The articles of agree
ment were drafted yesterday at a
Meeting held in Spartanburg, Messrs.
and Hatch of the Milliken
firm and several of the attorneys rep
rcscnting both sides being present.
