Col. Bacon on a Sleeper.

Col. James T. Bacon, editor Of the
Edgsfeld CT hronicle, thus describes
his experiences in Pullman car:
cit is pleasant to sit in a Pullman
sleeper during the day, but to 60 to

a terrible thing to have to contend
with insolent porters, and fat, pudgy,
fussy old women, and nasty, snuffy
old men that snore like sea-horses

ing on Friend street. We understand
that the various committees and the
city council, who have had the mat
ter Of widening the streets in charge,
have not done anything definite. We
hope that these people, whom we are
satisfied are interested in the widen
ing of our streets, will not delay
action any longer.
If there should be any persons,
who own property on these streets,
who will not give the necessary land,
or sell it. at a reasonable figure, the
thing for the city to do is to go ahead
and widen right up to their lots and
let them project into the street fur
ther than their neishbors. They will
soon realize the ADVANTAGE, and not
only to The city, but to the property
owners Of having the streets widen
ed. and we are sure there will be no
difficulty in securing all Of the prop
erty from Caldwell street to Calhoun
This street can lie made Gre Of the
prettiest in The city and the time to
get it widened is before the burned

WHY THE DIFFERENCE?

The people Of this community would
be glad to know why the Standard
Warehouse Company can afford to
store cotton at Greenwood at 10 cents
per bale while it charges 20 cents
for the same service at Newberry. The
following is a copy Of circular,
which mas been distributed through
out this county, and though it gives
a free advertisement to the Ware
house business, we give it this pro-
minence in order to inquire from the
management at the warehouse at
Newberry Why tnis discrimination
should be made aaginst this city. If
the Standard Warehouse Company
can afford to cut the price at Green
wood, it certainly ought to do even
better for the town of Newberry,
where it has a monopoly Of the busl-
ness. The farmers, instead Of building
a warehouse Of their own here, have
been patronizing the Standard Ware
house Company, and this concern has
gotten all Of the business. It the
Standard Warehouse can afford te
store cotton at 10 cents the bale where
it has competition it ought to be able
to do where it mas a mnopoly.
The following is the circular:
"To meet the cut made by the
Standard Warehouse company at this
point only, we will store and insure
and grade your cotton for 1Oc pei
bale per month, the fractional part Of
a month to count as a month. Oul
Warehouse, located in the center Of
the city on the S. A. L. Railroad, |:
up-to-date in all respects. We have
large platform and a fine sample room
for the display of your cotton. We so

eottn to store.'

HAS NEVER BEEN TO NEWBER
nv

A few days ago a communication
appeared in the State from Sumter,
making complaint that the post office
at that place closed its outer door at
9 o'clock, so tlat even those persons,
who owned lock boxes, could not get
their mail after that hour. and stat
ed that it was the only post office of
the second class in the United States
where mail could not be received
through lock boxes after 9 O'Clock at
night The party, who wrote the let
ter, has probably never been to New
berry. Our Office is closed promptly
at 9 o'clock and the mail that comes
in at $50 is not distributed until at
ter s o'clock the next day.
We notice from the Sumter Item
that this complaint has been RENE
died and that the postmaster states
that no complaint had ever been made
to him, but that he had been work
ing on the matter for nearly a year
and that in a few days he would be
able to give the people access to the
office at flight. In fact, he proposes
after the 18th of this month to put on
a night clerk, who will have charge Of
the office and make up the mail that
is deposited during the night. OF
course the general delivery will not
be open at night, but persons who
nave locked boxes, will be able to go
into the lobby and secure their mail
and deposit outgoing mail.
In our post office if it should hap,
pen that trains Nos. 18 and 19 are
made mail trains, it will scarcely bs
possible to buy stamps or secure
money orders except at very brief
intervals, because while mails are be-
ing put up, the money order, STAMP
and registered letter windows are
either closed or there Is no one at any
Of them to wait upon those who de-
sire Ito buy stamps or money orders
This smetimes works a great ineon
i. venience, and persons have to wal
until the mail is distributed or g
away and come again We though
that t:when the Office was made q sec
ond class Office and separate window!
were labeled for stamps and register
ed letters AMI money orders that a
least during the Office hours ther
would be someone constantly at thes'
windows to wait upon the public. l.
the force at present is not sufficien
for this work, the government Ger
tainly ought to furnish additional
help.
In a town Of this size and at al
office that does the business that 1
done at Newberry, it should not b
necessary to close down these win
dows while mail is being put up.

WANTS MORE CLERKS.
Gen. Aleshire Calls Attention to the
Clerical Needs Of His Office.

In his first annual report Q. NJ. Gen Ale
shire calls attention to the insufficient
strength of the clerical force of this office
allowed by law to handle the vast amount
of work devolving upon it,
In submitting the annual estimate for the
fiscal year 1909 an increase in the number
OF clerks has been asked as well as an in
crease in their salaries, and ii is recon-
mended that this estimate be favorably
considered.
The nature OF the work" says Gen. Ale
shire, "is such TO require. as a rule all
new appointees in clerical positions to be
qualified as stenographers and typewriters
and 1t has been difficult to obtain elgibles
through the channels Of the civil service
commission possessing these qualifications
who are willing to accept positions offered
at the salary provided, viz, $40 or $500 per
annum, and, in fact, the civil service COM
mission informed the Secretary of War on
May I, 1907, that 1t had no eligibes upon
the male stenographer and typewriter reg
lister who are available for certification at
SS+D per annum. 1t iS therefore recon-
mended that the salaries of the clerical
force of this office be readjusted by the
elimination OF all grades below that of
81 900, and increasing the number in that
grade correSpondingly.
This change will. it is believed, enable
the civil service commission to certify a
class of elgibles possessing the necessary
qualifications to fll vacancies as they oc-
cur.
THE investigation of salaries now in
progress Win a view 10 revision 10 produce
uniformity and fit them to existing condi-
tions is a move in the right direction. This
office and the department at large are both
frequently losing valuable or experienced
clerks and other employees through offers of
better salaries, more opportunity for pro-
motions or other material advantages.
These losses are sometimes to other de-
partments and sometimes to commercial
concerns. In either event the drafts are
from among the more valuable class of
employees. designations to accept CONNER
cial positions cannot, Of course, be pre-
vented. while to refuse request for transfer
where the applicant secures thereby better
salary or other advantage would be un-
gracious.
The views OF the quartermaster general
upon the question of retiring Superannuated
employees have been given at length in re-
ports for the two preceding years, and to
those attention is invited

tice Stafford in the District Supreme Court
today issued rule against Sol w. Katz,
travelling salesman of Philadelphia, to
show cause why he should not be adjudged
In contempt of the local court. The rule is
made returnable on the first rule day of
the court in September
The rule was issued on the motion Of At
torney Julius l. Peyser, attorney for the
plaintiff in the case of Grief against Block;
and in affidavits filed With the court today
1t was pointed out that June IL last, when
katZ was in the District, a summons from
the District Supreme Court was placed in
the hands of the United States marshal
ordering Katz to appear before an ex-
am1ner in chancery. where a deposition
OF his evidence in the case would be taken
and the aff1davits further set out that the
summons was served by a deputy marshal
on katz and that he was paid the regular
witness fee of $1.25. which he accepted.
The aftidavits further allege that katz
did not appear, as summoned. The rea-
an affidavit sent to the attorney for the
plaintiff, which was also filed today. He
maintains that the summons for his ap-
psarance should have been issued by the
examiner In chancery and not by the Dis
tr1ct Supreme Court, as the hearing was
to come up before the examiner.
Judge Stafford refused to issue an order
holding katZ in contempt OF court, as
first requested.

decided to refer the knotty problem to the
executive committee, with instructions to
take referendum vote. About 10000 deal
ers will cast ballots and the result will
not be known for at least three months.
AS vote in convention indicated that the
delegates were about evenly divided on the
matter Of rebate on newspapers and
periodicals returned to the publishers, there
was a feeling of unwillingness to take
definite action with such an indecisiye
expression.
Reports from all sections of the coun-

year was much better than that of the
preceding year.

CLASH OF JURIsTs.
Justice Dickey Resents His Order
Being Vacated by Justice Gaynor.


NEW YORK, August 23.-"If Justice
Gaynor of the appellate division wants my
position in this court l will gladly give it
to him." said Justice Dickey of the su-
preme court, Brooklyn, yesterday, speaking
from the bench Il said gambling must
stop; Justice Gaynor says gambling must
go on
A sharp clash between the two jurists
has arisen over opposing decisions they
have rendered
The case at issue concerns gambling at
Coney Island. The police had closed the
game Of chance conducted by Alfred Lang
law against gambling. He appealed to the
courts for an injunction restraining the po-
lice. obtaining the usual temporary injunc-
ton, which Justice Dickey, on final hearing
ordered vacated. The court, in memoran-
dunn handed down, defined gambling in ac-
cordance with standard authorities and de-
clared that the practice must cease in
Brooklyn.
Langfelt then appealed to Justice Cay
nor to overrule the order of Justice Dickey
on the ground that he was being perse-
cuted by the police. AS the appellate divi-
sion was not in session, Justice Gaynor
heard the arguments of counsel at his
country home in st. James Long Island,
and issued stay against Justice Dickey's
order.
This was the status of the case yester-
day when representatives of the corpora
ton counsel for the police appeared again
before Justice Dickey and asked to have
Justice Gaynor's decision vacated on tech
nical grounds. Further arguments will be
made today.
