NO DANGER OF A COAL
FAMINE THIS WINTER.

During the past two weeks seven
ty-1ve carloads of coal have been re-
ceived in Roswell. There was a moder
ate supply in the bins of the dealers
and individuals before that time. So
there is no danger of a coal famine
here this winter. Railroad conditions
are much better than usual, also, and
even should the supply run low. plen-
ty could be shipped in. All that is
needed for the public now is the nor.
ey to pay for it.

TROUBLE ON THE SOUTHERN.

There has been considerable trouble
on the Rock Hill division Of the South
ern railroad during the past few days
due largely to the bad condition Of the
track as the result Of the long spell OF
wet weather and to defective and worn
out rolling stock.
The track Of the Rock Hill division
has never been ballasted and the condi-
tions following a soaking rainy spell
such as has been prevailing for some
time past, are quite dangerous.
Four of seven heavily loaded coal
cars constituting an extra freight that
passed here last Saturday morning on
its way toward Rock Hill rolled down
an embankment just east of the Fish
ing creek trestle 1t appears. that the
whole track slipped off the embank-
ment, rails, crossties and all, and down
went the cars, some Of them to the bot
tom. Conductor John L. Sullivan was
painfully, but not seriously hurt. He
will be laid up, for some time with q
sprained ankle and a bruised leg.
= Passenger train No. 35, going west
broke down in q fill just south OF York
vile Sunday morning because Of i'm
proper adjustment Of the trucks OF the
tender The truck was gotten on the
track again after considerable amount
of hard work and the train proceeded
on its way only to meet with another
similar accident between Hickory Grove
and Smyrna.
Trains over the Rock Hill division
are still making very good time; but
there is no use trying to conceal the
fact that the roadbed is in dangerous
shape, especially between Yorkville and
Rock Hill. The railroad people are do
ing the best they can under the cir
cumstances but are very much hindered
because Of the condition Of the weather.

diction and a blessing to his fellow
man. When he came into the world to
show mankind the way to everlasting
life, the Saviour spent most of his
time teaching obedience to the law and
giving practical. illustrations Of the
true meaning of justice. The lawyer
of today has unlimited opportunity to
continue the same work, and there are
those who are doing this very thing;
but If our contemporary would claim
that this is the general rule we are not
prepared 10 agree with it, or course,
we had no intention of rejecting upon
lawyers in general or as a class; but
we are unable to see where we have
committed any injustice in the use Of
the word many" We shall not under
take to be specific in separating those
we consider good from those we con-
slider otherwise. In the first place, we
do not assume that we are qualified to
pass Judgment on individual cases, and
in the second place, even If we felt as
sured of our ability to do this with un-
erring precision, we would not have the
temerity to do IT, The reason is OBJ
vious. But if the Ledger will consider
the total number of lawyers who enter
into the comprehension Of our original
remarks, we feel that it will have to
concede that the number of bad ones,
those who use and try to use their
knowledge Of the law just as the sons
OF Eli used their position as priests for
their own unlawful gain, is many, very
many.

But this condition. of affairs, Miss
Nance said, is not to be blamed alto
gether on the teachers. The patrons
are as much at fault as anybody else.
1t costs from $500 to $1,000 to educate
a teacher to q point where she can be
Of much real value. There are plenty
of such teachers to be had; but they are
not to be had for $25 or $50 a month.
They cannot work for that sum and
they are not going to. People who
would expect to get good teachers must
expect to pay them at a rate that would
make it worth their while to give at
tention to their work.
Not only Is it necessary that the
school should have Il good teacher, but
1t must have Il comfortable home.
There is no need for palace Of course,
The building does not need to be eX-
pensive: but 1t must be neat, comfort
able and well lighted, and provided
with pleasant surroundings. 1t is a
good idea to have flowers In the win
dows and pictures on walls, desks and
chairs instead of rough benches, and
slate black boards instead of rough
panks painted black. The idea is to
make the school room as attractive and
as homelike as possible.
In her travels about the state, the
speaker had come across many parents
who had grown up in illiterate ignor-
ance, and whose children are following
the way of their fathers and mothers.
In some cases the parents seem to have
no idea OF any other condition for them
selves and no concern for the future Of
the children. There are many in
stances where children Of these parents
are anxious for the opportunity to go to
school, but who have no way Of getting
hnn n1yu fhn, do nf
cases, and one Of the greatest benefits
that the state can confer on common
school education at this time Is to fur
nsh free books to children Of this
class. There should be an appropria-
ton Of at least $4,000 for this purpose
and this appropriation should be made
tomorrow She asserted with firm con-
viction that the need for education In
South Carolina Is as great as the need
for religion.
Reviewing to the origin and develop
ment Of the School Improvement asso-
clation, Miss Nance told how 1t was
founded in 1903 by President D. B.
Johnson Of Winthrop, who has done
more for education than any other man
in South Carolina. The entire class Of
1903. consisting of thirty-three men,
bers had gone into the organization
anu the HleillDelSllp Idl SlIlCe 6lO" IL
to about 5000 members, scattered
throughout the state in numerous coun-
ty organizations which are doing
splendid work in the improvement Of
the school rooms and the standard Of
teaching.
At the conclusion Of her talk. Miss
Nance announced her purpose to per-
feet q York county association and
most Of those present indicated their
desire to become members. Miss Nora
Williamson Of Guthriesville, was chosen
as president, Miss LESLIE Witherspoon
of Yorkville, vice president; Miss Ella
Nicely of Yorkville, secretary: Mrs. G.
H. O'Leary Of Yorkville, treasurer;
Mrs. w. B. Moore of Yorkville, chair
man Of the executive committee.

THE general assembly could easily
do all the work it has to do in ten days
If it would. AS a matter OF fact most
of the actual work of a session is usu-
ally done in ten days. Time Is frittered
away at the beginning and then at the
last everything is jammed through or
killed in a rush. It Is quite possible
that there would be as good or better
work if it were understood beforehand
that it was to be a matter Of only ten
days. We do not think that there Is a
practical. fair-minded member of the
present general assembly who would
think of claiming that there was any
need for extending the present session
over forty days.

koESTER MAKES REPLY.
Editor of The Record Makes Statement
of His Position.

George r. Koester. editor Of The
Columbia Record. who was so bitterly
denounced by Attorney General Lyon
last Thursday devoted four columns on
the front page of his paper Friday
afternoon to personal reply mi
statement as to his position. After de-
nying in great length the right thr
commission had to ask him the 4ueS-
tions put to him so rapidly and which
he answered more or less clearly, he
says:
Now, / am often asked why do
not let LyCn go and drop this whole
matter e1itorially. / have had many
good friends tell me most earnestly
that I was a fool for trying to defend
officials of the late state dispensary,
that was only hurting myself and my
paper by such a policy; that they were
down and out and could never help
me and that it was simply idiotic on
my part to stand alone ana say good
word for them; that I could not stem
the tide Of public prejudice against
them resulting from the unceasing
attacks Of practically all the other pa
pers and a majority Of the politicians.
II 1 consider my selfish interests, that
is good advice and I am fool not to
take 1t. But I am not built that way.
I have no ambition greater than the
desire to so live that when | die it can
be truthfully craven on my tombstone
that beneath are the remains Of man
who never failed a frieid. When a
man needs friends Is when he Is In
trouble. To hell with such as are
friends only in fair weather.
In conclusion he says:
II freely absolve each and every
member Of the commission Of any in
90 IL hnt Il nd
and disagreeable duty to perform. They
are trying to do It as they best see
their way. But, cannot even q good
deed done with right intent have evil
effect?
"As to J. Fraser Lyons success In
getting a chance to vent his spleen on
me under court protection, want to
compliment him. 1t was one Of the few
smart things he has ever done. But
there was no need for him to have
thrown his hand behind his back when
he was talking under court protection.
I have no desire to kill such vermln
and do not go armed. He Is threatrical
always. but his supreme contempt for
me. his unwillingness to notice me Is
amusing In view Of the fact that / have
said nothing recently about him any
worse than l have often said before,
especially during the last campaign,
and yet only few short months ago
he was willing to do and did sit down
and eat with me and drink my whis-
ky with me and that afterward, when
/ had occasion to go to his Office with
a delegation on business, he came up
and offered his hand to me 70 shake.
''In conclusion, want to thank the
genial Atlanta lawyer for his ingen-
ious little lecture upon the practice
of law and his citation Of a notable
instance where state had employed
great lawyer from another state to
conduct prosecution for 1t. am not
obtuse. I got his argument and am
willing to admit that Colonel Fielder
Of Georgia, is a great lawyer. But we
have the same kind in South Carolina.
