Mr.. J. T. Bingham in his "Adieu"
in the last issue Of the Chester Lam
tern says:
'FBut one Of my chief regrets is
that, in the language of a certain
neglected boy when arraigned in
court, "I ain't never had no chance"
TO do myself or the paper justice
editorially. I have always craved an
opportunity, if for only short while,
to edit a newspaper, without being all
the time overwhelmed with business
management and the multitude of
other demands that claimed my whole
time, making editorial work mere
incident and requiring the writing to
be done often under the most unfav-
orable conditions. I regret also that
there are a thousand things which I
had in mind to say that remain un-
said. But possibly it is better So
We have often felt the same regret.
It may be that We could not have
done any better but some how the
country editor who has everything
to look after frequently has to have
his mind on how to collect a few dol
lars while laboring to write his sai-
torials and important locals and we
have always felt that if we lad only
the writing to do that we might make
a better paper. At any rate, like Mr..
Bigham, we would like to try it

Rev. E. O. Watson, secretary OF
the Methodist conference, which is
in session in Laurens offered reso-
lution yesterday to put the church
organ, The Southern Christian Advo-
cate, in the homes Of the Methodist
free, and that the conference pay for
it. What is the matter with our good
brother? Does he want our church
paper put on the same footing with
"Comfort?' If the Advocate IS
worth taking out Of the Office, 1t IS
certainly worth paying for-Sumter
Herald.
We do not understand the PROPOSE
tion Of DR.. Watson to be to put the
paper in the hands Of each family
free but to make an assessment on the
membership equal to the subscription
price of the paper printed at cost so
that it might be sent to each Metho-
dist family in this State.
It would be an altogether differ
ent proposition from "Comfort' and
would not depend upon ADVERTISE
ments for it's maintenance.

friend. So far, We feel that 1t IS
to be congratulations, but you never
know. We are having our troubles as
we'll as our triumphs." For. the en-
couragement Of The Times We will
say that The Times and Democrat
has been using a Linotype machine
for nearly two years, and we could
not get along without it. In the hands
Of an expert it is a thing Of beauty
and JOY forever. The Times and
Democrats machine is operated by
a gentleman who is an expert at hand
ling them.-Orangeburg Times and
Democrat.
We have had one Of these machines
for nearly five years and would not
like to be without one and do not
see how we could get along without
one since we have become accustom-
ed to it and we have lost very little
tine with it during that time. In fact
not more than two days at any time
and only once or twice then but when
it does get a part broken you must
just wait until you can get a dupli-
cate from the factory.
We had that experience last week.
Those experiences will come to all
one machine Offices. But it is a great
machine and we could not manage
without it.

G. G. & o. WILL RUN LINE TO
=. NEWBERRY.

A question Of much interest in
Spartanburg at this time is what
route the Carolina, Cinchfield and
Ohio will take out Of this city to-
wards the south. It is known that
lines have been run out Of here to-
wards Broad river, and down that
stream to Columbia. Now it is report
ed that engineering parties will he
started from this city to put line
between Spartanburg and Newberry.
It is said this line will pass through
much good and undeveloped country.
Et is generally accepted now that the
C. C. & o. Will build its own line
south-Spartanburg Herald.
Newberry should be alert and look
after this matter. Some time ago a
committee was appointed to confer
with the authorities Of this road look
ing to its coming this way. If the OBJ
jective point is Augusta and the road
comes to Union Newberry is on an
air line and the road would come by
Whitmire, Newberry, Saluda and
Edgefield.
! This wound open fine country
greatly in need Of railroad facilities.
Besides it would reach several very
good coaGng stations. It has been
understood that for the present the
tracks Of c.. & W. c. would be used to
get out of Spartanburg but this state
ment from Spartanburg is to the ef-
feet that the intention Of the COM
panv is to build it's own road.

THE DARK CORNER"

The well known Washington cor
respondent and writer, Zach Nc
Ghee, is soon to issue novel deal
ing with the great educational prob
lens in this State and elsewhere,
and it is safe to say that it will be
interesting to the people of this
county. The title of the work is
The Dark Corner,' and it might
designate any of the thinly settled
sections of the South. It is teem-
ing with interest from first to last,
having delicate touch of pathos
throughout. It will undoubtedly
arouse discussion as to the many
school problems the country school
teacher is subject to. It is novel
with purpose-clearly defined and
absolute. The writer is a we'll
known man of this State who is
making Washington his home and
his work will undoubtedly have a
large sale.
It will be on sale in this county
at the prominent stores where books
are handled. and it will make an
excellent Christmas gift-one which
will not only charm the recipient,
but will interest the reader.
1t is novel without "carpet
bag villian," and without skin
flint from the East; it is South
ern-Southern from the point of
view that it has it's setting down
South, but it can be applied to any
section where the country school
teacher or the city school teacher
lives. The book is published by
the Grafton Press, New York City.
