THE NEWS OF EXCELSIOR.
Thinks Farmers Mutual Should Pay
MIR. Chappell's Loss Sowing
Oats.

Excelsior, Nov. 18.-The farmers
in this section are busy sowing wheat.
If next year should be favorable to
grain there will be more bread made
in Newberry county than has been
for a number Of years. This is the
idea and the farmers ought to have
sowed wheat all the time. A large
acreage Of oats also has been sown.
Miss Annie Singley has been con-
fined to her room with fever, but
glad to say she is able to be up again.
Prof. Aumerle Singley, who is
teaching a fourishing school near
Chaplin spent Saturday and Sunday
with the home folks here.
The congregational meeting at
Bachman Chapel church Will be Sun
day afternoon at 2 o'clock. Each
member of the church is asked to be
there at that hour.
We spent Wednesday night in Sa-
luda county. Was glad to see the
farmers over there are sowing grain
like they are not afraid Of it. There
is lot of good land in Saluda coun-
ty that will make wheat, corn or cot
| ton.
Mr.. Editor, I have been a member
Of the Farmers Mutual for number
Of years and I heartily endorse Whai
has been said concerning Mr.. Chap
pell's loss by fire. If Mr.. Chappell :;
property destroyed by fire was IN
sured in the Farmers Mutual why
should the matter require any argu'
ment at all. The Association should
pay him his loss and that would be
the long and the short Of it.
Mr.. j. N. Schumpert has about

"Sigma,' who is member Of the
Farmers Mutual says it needs no ar
gumenlt to convince him that the
company should pay Mr.. Chappell' S
loss. That seems to be the unanl-
nous opinion Of the members Of the
company. It is certainly the equity
view whether it is law or not.

IMPORTANCE OF ORGANIZA

Ihere mas not Deen IuaI 1uttleSt Ill
our Chamber of Commerce on the
part Of the business men Of this
community, which such an organl-
cation deserves. In this particular,
however, Newherry is not unique, as
we find from reading our exchanges
that the same trouble exists IN a
number of other towns and cities.
We have so often spoken OF the
GOOD results that could be obtained
for the community by united effort OF
all the business interests, that we re-
fer 10 it again with some reluctance.
We cannot understand why the
merchants and other business inter
ests will not take more active part in
an organized effort TO build up the
community, when such an effort
would cost so little in time and mon
ey and result in such large dividends
not only indirectly but directly, to
their business interests. It takes
money for such an organization to
accomplish results. It takes united
effort and active interest on the part
of every beusiness man in the COM
munity, as well as money.
We notice from the Columbia Rec
ord that the same trouble exists in
the city Of Columbia, and that a
large number in proportion who do
take an interest in the Chamber of
Commerce, is composed Of others
than merchants, and if such an Or
ganization can accomplish direct ben
eft to any business interest in the
community, that business interest is
always represented in the merchants
Of the community.
We started out, however, to copy
two paragraphs from the Columbia
Record, and to commend them to our
citizens generally.
DR.. Mayer, as President Of the
Newberry Chamber Of Commerce
has been active and energetic, but he
has not had the cooperation of the
business men that he deserves.
The Record, in concluding a bust
ness talk to business men, along this
point, says:
"No business can operate without
capital. The Chamber of Commerce
has no capital. It has never had. It
IS without resources. It's fixed ex-
