Better off in the South.

! A great national exposition by
the negroes has been suggested for
1913, celebrating the fftieth year
of their independence. From a long
card published in the Atlanta Con
stitution by Booker Washington,
setting forth the reasons for hold.
ing such an exposition, we clipped
the following:
ETlhe masses of the negro people
are better off, in my opinion, in the
southern states than in any other
part of the world, and for that rea.
son, if for no other, the masses of
the people are going to remain in

Newspapers Cost. Something.

How long will it take many per-
sons in. the town and county OF
Edge6eld to learn THAT it requires
actual cash-to run a live
newspaper, and that the chief source
ola publishers income is selling
space in its columns. Space is a
publishers stock in trade, it is what
he pays his money for to sell 10
oth-.s; get many individuals make
bold to ask that a certain amount of
space be given them without money
and without price. Suppose a pub
Usher should walk into a bank and
ask for a loan of one thousand dol
lars without interest. What would
be the bankers reply: If he should
ask a merchant for his merchandise
without offering its value in cash,
or its equivalent. what reply would
he receive?
There are weekly newspapers in
South Carolina that dc not publish
a single line, other than the current
news of the day, mot even a notice
of church services that are sent in),
without charging the usual adver-
Using rates. But Edgcfeld papers
have always been very generous
with their space. and have many,
very many, times been imposed up
on by persons who, to say the least
of it, have lost sight Of the fact that
it costs money to make a newspaper.
An Orangeburg contemporary
states the matter correctly in the
following short paragraph:
Every line ina newspaper costs
its publisher something. If it is to
benefit some individual, he may
fairly expect to pay, something. You
do not go into a grocery and ask
the proprietor to hand you out 10.
pounds of sugar for nothing, even
grocer may pc per

MIR. ). M. Wright Replies to
DR.. D. A. ]. Bell.

Mr.. Editor: 1t seems to be a
very common occurrence for some
one TO criticise a jury that sits on
any Ease of note in u state, and
I admit that where justice is not
done and the law is not v~indicated,
that they have a perfect right to do
SO. / do not know DR.. Bell per-
%sonallv, but from his general repu-
tation I have taken him to be a
perfect Christian gentleman. But l
do feel that if he desired to criticise
the jury thai sat on the case of Bill
Broadwater, he first ought to
have informed himself as to the
facts before he made SUCH an un-
just criticism. I, as one of the
twelve men (of his peer) that
brought out a verdict of not
guilty." feel called upon to make
a statement of facts in order that
we may be INDICATED from those
epithets that he has applied to US.
I think that DR.. Bell wrote as he
did, not of his own personal knowl-
edge of the evidence that the jury
had to go. by, but what he undoubt-
edly thought they ought to have
had. And should we have had the
facts as he stated them before the
trial as afterwards, no doubt the
verdict would have been different.
And he being such a fanatic,
Jealous CITIZEN" would not come

formation. Now, Doctor, the first
time that 1 ever heard of Bill
Broadwater being drunk, and
raising a row with his wife and
daughter, and Bob going over there
to quiet him, and Bill stabbing him
in the shoulder, and Bob taking his
mother. home with him, and Bill
coming over to Anna Broadwater's
house in a rage, and deliberately
shooting her / saw it in your letter.
1 did lot know whether Bill had a
mother, wife, or daughter, as it
was not brought out in the evidence.
We had but the testimony of one
witness and that was Bob Broad
water, the SOL of Bill, who, being
sworn by the state said, in SUBJ
stance that Bill GBroadwater had
come home from town drinking and
was out in the road some distance
from his (Bob's) house making
some unnecessary fuss, and he went
out to quiet him. And when he
came up to where he was, Bill had
his knife open in his hand and Bob
took the, knife away from Bill and
went back to his (Bob's) home and
Bill went out to his (Bill's) home
and got his (BiE's) gun and came
