When the present auditor was TAX

sor, after assuring him in my pres

duty to have the matter pleasantly
and agreeably adjusted, asked him if

offices belong to the people and the

MILEAGE BILL KILLED.
It Was Amended Out Of Shape and
Then Killed.

Columbia, February 23.-The SEN
ate reversed itself on the railroad
rate bill tonight, and after adopting
the Weston amendment killed the en-
tire bill. This leaves the mileage and
rate question as formerly. Senator
Rogers moved to strike out the enact
ing words Of the bill, and this was
carried by viva 7oce vote: The bill
has been discussed two days.
When the railroad rate bill came
up for discussion Senator Weston
proposed an amendment as follows:
"Add another section as follows:
'Any railroad company operating
or owning railroad in this State may
offer for sale at a price or rate not
to exceed two cents a mile inter-
changeable mileage books, which
shall not be good for transportation
except when exchanged for ticket:
Provided, There is ticket office open
at the station where the passenger
boards the train.'
Senator Weston explained this
amendment. stating that he had been
informed that if the bill passes the
interchangeable mileage books would
be taken off sale.
Senator Crosson made a straight,
matter-of-fact talk in support OF
striking ont the enacting words Of
the bill. He stated that the travel
ling public now has 20 per cent in
ducement to buy the interchangeable
mileage book. He thought the drum
mers are now given privileges, such
as carrying 200 pounds Of baggage.
He has investigated the matter care
fully and has found that since the
ticket auditors have been put Oh the
receipts have increased II 1-2 per
cent. also that the roads in this State
lost 100000 in the August floods.
He had voted for the bill, but saw
his mistake and would vote for kill

In conclusion I will say that while
in all probability my motives have
been questioned and my actions criti-
cised, that I have not asked that my
personal preference as to the occu-
pany of either office should be consid-
cred, neitherhave I refused to be NOV

tend to do so, but in view Of what has
already been done, I am free to say
(if it was in my province to do sol
that it would be presumption on my
part to assume the responsibility of
saying what office shall be occupied
by the probate judge and if possible
litigation should be avoided.

W. G. T. U. Affairs in Capital.

Mrs. Armor has come and gone. She
spoke twelve times, going into the
different sections Of the city, winning
hosts of friends and hundreds of con-
verts to prohibition for the District
Of Columbia. At every service men
and women assured US that they were
with us in the fight for clean city.
, The interest kept gaining, and at the
last service, held Sunday evening,
January 81, at the National Theater,
the building was filled with an audi
enee largely composed Of men. They
sang again and again, "Washington's
going dry" at last standing and way
ing handkerchiefs and ~clapping hands
to show their interest. Mrs. Armo-
never spoke better than at that SER
vice, and when she made an appeal
for funds to carry forward the work,
1925 was raised, making in all during
the series of meetings nearly $4,000.
Two hundred and fifty names were
secured for new members, and the
presidents of local unions are seek
ing these newcomers, bringing them
RIGHT into the unions and thus crown
ing the work with blessed results. We
feel that new and great impetus has
come to the work from the visit Of
Mrs. Armor. and pray Gods blessing
to go with her.
Mrs. Armor will be in South Caro-
lima in April and we expect results.

Christmas time, advertising "good
old" whishey, with prizes of razorS,

orders. The government fraud order
is based on the fact that the liquor
sold is not real whiskey, but cheap
imitation, and the business therefore
a fraud. It is said that similar action
will be taken against other mail order
whiskey houses.

HELP YOUR TOWN.

"A town whose citizens have no
public spirit Is on the way to the
cemetery.
1.-THE citizen who will do nothing to
help his town is helping to dig its
grave.
"The citizen who growls about his
town being The worst ever, Is as
sisting in its burial.
1.-THE business man who will not
advertise is driving the hearse.
"The citizen who is a chrome
grumbler and always pulling back IN
every public enterprise is throwing
bouquets on the grave.
"The citizen who knocks and
howls hard times breaches the fun
eral Sermon.'
These are very true statements. we
wonder if Newberry has any citizen
who comes under any one of the above
descriptions. If so he is trying to
act in one or the other capacities at
the obsequies of the t.vn.
!. If the town is good enough for you
to live in and make money IN you
should have good word for it on
every occasion and lend your efforts
to those who are trying to make 1t
better and more desirable to live IN
and make money in. You should de-
sire to see every one succeed and you
should help him along. His success
will make yours easier.
If YOU cannot do this then you
should pack your grip and move on.
II admire the man who is always BAL
ing hay;
Who is smiling through his galWays
every day;
Not the cheap, shoddy grin of the fel-
low who's all in,
But the smile Of those who win IN the
fray. =.
There's too much of vain repinlng Iii
the land;
And I weary Of the whining, grunt-
ing band;
And I love the CHEEKY chap who en-
counters any hap
With the smiles that overlap-who
has sand.
And 7 don't believe your growing,
or your yelps,
Or your kicking or your howl1ng ever
helps;
For the thoroughbreds are still when
the fight is going i'll,
And the howls that split the air come
