schools we are brought face to face
with the factory schools. is there
being done the same things in them
and is there an effort to advance
them such rs is the case with the
rural schoolss South Carolina
stands at the head Of the manu-
featuring states Of the south and no
element of her population needs
more attention and care than the
factory laborers. They are men and
women like the balance of us and
they deserve the same efforts
which are given to NIL the other
elements of the human society. But
we again say that the matter of
improving tho factory schools needs
more attention and this is very
evident when we see the class Of
citizens which they are to day. We
do not mean to cast any rejection
on them. Far from it. But we
do say that they havn't the same
opportunity which others have and
for that reason they should be
more respected and admired for
the advancement which they have
and are making.

Sunday Mail.

The matter Of increased mail fa-
cilities for Bennettsville and the
s grounding country on Sunday is
now being agitatcd. 1t has long
been felt by some if not by all
that Bennettsville did not have all
the mail facilities which she was
entitled to on this one day out Of
the week more especially than any
other.
At present the only train bring
ing mail in here comes in from
Fayetteville on Sunday night ut a
bout 1880 o'clock This train ar
rics mail out in the morning and
hence it is at night when it returns
and the people get what letters
and other mail comes from that
way.
OF course the principal way
from which the people here get
mail is from the south. On Sun
day the b and G. is not operated
and Of course there is no mail from
the Seaboard. Only one train from
Sumter comes in that day arriving
here at noon and returning at 3:45
in the afternoon. This train carries
only the State in coming north and
is supposed to also carry the News
and Courier but SO far this is most
ly supposition. Going back south
on that day this train works mail.
Now the people here, or at least
some of them, don't see why the
train which arrives hero at moor
on that day can't bring letters and
the other mail. 1t works mail 60
ing south and hence why not work
mail going northl All will agree
that if this train could or would
carry mail it would prove to be a
great convenience. The people are
accustomed to go by the postof1ice
for their papers on Sunday and
hence why not get letters then too?
Some agitation along this line
has already been taken by the
board Of trade and it is probable
that there will be something else
doing in the same line before long.
1t has been suggested that q good
way would be to get up a petition
signed by the people here and a
long the route and forward it to
the proper authorities and ask that
maii.be worked by this train on
Sunday when it is coming north
The convenience and other i'm
proyements would be great and
many.

Section 436, division 3, of the
new postal laws and regulations,
issued Jan. /, 1908, says:
UNLESS subscriptions are OK
pressly renewed aftor the term
for which they are paid, y <
they shall not be counted in the
list of legitimate subscribers, and
copies mailed on account thereof
shall not be accepted at the second
class postage rate of one cent a

transient second-class postage rate
of one cent for each four ounces or
fraction thereof, prepaid by stamps

The Democrat has heretofore
been very lcnient with its sub
scribers. Some of them are sew
eral years behind. but the paper is
still! being sent to them. This
policy will have to be changed,
however. We do not care to have
to pay extra postage and paste
stamps on the papers of delinquent
subscribers, besides beng out Of
the use of our money.
So the Democrat is going to be
run on the cash in advance system
after Feb. /. The post office de-
partment has extended the time to
April 1 to put tho new law into
operation. We believe it will be
better, however, to begin the now
system at once while money is
more plentiful than it will proba-
hlp be in the spring.
If there are any of subscribers
who cannot pay by Feb. L, and
will notify us that they want to
continue the Democrat and that
they will pay by April /, we will
send it on till that time. The gov
eminent, in order to prevent any
hardship to anybody, is giving
publishers three month, from Jan.
l to April 1, to put the new s,ys-
tenn into operation. We will have
to begin to get our books in shape
to comply with the law, and will
on Feb. !, stop all papers which
nave not been paid for, unless the,
subscribers ask us to extend tho
Tune till April /. This will pivc
~ subscribers plenty of time to
baS,.
AL amounts due on subscription
before Sept. 1, 1907, IRE due the
former publisher, S A. Brown,
and should be paid to him. All
since that time should be paid to
freeman & Caldwell, the present
publishers of the Democrat.
One dollar will pay for one year.
IT you want the Democrat this
year, send the dollar. If do
not want it, pay up to date and
