WANTS BUILDING INSPECTOR,

Newberry needs a building lnspec-
tor. The city has got to the point
where this is almost a necessity-in-
deed it ought to have been attended
to years ago. No building should be
erected in a city this size until an ex-
pert has examined the plans and CIV
en- his permission after finding that
the foundations and walls will be
safe. This is matter that ought to
be looked after by the city council
without further delay. - Newberry
Observer.
The greatest need Newberry has
now is a street and sidewalk inspec-
tor and then we are sure there would
be some work going on in this hne'
Better streets and sidewalks is the
great need of Newberry today.

If coming - the market and asking
the buyer what he will give them for
it. would fix price and demand that
price.
No other business known to the
commercial world could continue very
long on the same business principles
adopted by a majority Of our farm
ers. The merchant, who does not re-
ceive a reasonable profit over the cost
Of his goods cannot continue very
long in business. The farmer, how
ever, has managed to get along some
way and take for his great staple
crop whatever the spectators may
see fit to offer him regardless OF
what it cost aim to produce it. We
are glad that our farmers are wax
ing up to the Importance Of their sit
uation, and we hope that they vii
realize the vantage ground which
they hold and demand reasonable
profit on their investment and on then
labor.

SUBSTITUTE STEN0GRAPHERS
NEEDED.

The postponement Of a term OF the
court of sessions on account Of the
illness of the official stenographer
can be explained on no other theory
than that of a defect in the law.
While substitute stenographerS quail
fled for court reporting are none too
numerous, it is certain that they
could be obtained if the law provid-
ed properly for their compensation.
It is suggested that competent stem
ographer regularly engaged in pri-
vate work cannot afford to abandon

the first violation of the Law. He
put up a 600 cash bond, County
Attorney G. II. Potts was notified

noon. When seen and asked il he
would permit the forfeiture of the

piled "By no means, | intend to
