SOUTHERN POWER co. HERE.
Unloading Material at Mollohon Mill.
Big Concern Has Reached
NeWberTy.

The Southern Power company-one
of the biggest corporations in the
United states-which will furnish
power to a number of manufacturing
enterprises in this and other States
is unloading its towers at the Mollo-
hon mill preparatory to bringing its
line into Newberry. The line comes
here by way of Union and Whltmlre,
and will go from Newberry to Green
wood, and other cities in the upper
part of the State.
The Mollohon mills some time ago
made a. contract with this company to
furnish power for the mill. The New
berry mills also has contrac for
power for part of it's machinery.

THE CIVIC ASSOCIATION.
Meeting Held on Wednesday After.
nOon-Matters OF Importance in
Civic Improvement.

The Civic association held its reg
ular monthly meeting on Wednesday
afternoon in the rooms of the chan ber
Of commerce. A tlunlber of matters
pertaining to the civic improvement of
the city were discussed by the men,
bers present. A great many sugges-
tons were made us to improvements
that ought to he looked after pertain
ing particularly to the cleanliness and
healthfulness of ~he city, and 1t is
very probable that some of these sug-
gestions will be put in shape and a
communication and request sent to city
council to have them done.
Attention was called to the fact that
the trash ordinance had not been en-
forced as it should be.
Mr.. E. H. Aull was present by invl-
tation to discuss the park proposition
with the association. The plan outlin-
ed for the establishment Of this park
was submitted, and a resolution was
adopted endorsing; the plan and pledg-
ing the hearty and enthusiastic CO.
operation of the association and its
members individually to the plan as
proposed.
The association has, in cooperation
with the trustees of Rosemont ceme-
terry, made some improvements ca the
pavilion in the cemetery, and it is de-
sired to make other improvements
during the spring.
The association has not the member
ship that it should have, and neither
has it the cooperation of the citizens
of the community that it should have.
There should be at least a membership,
of five or six hundred active workers,
and with little effort on the part of
each and by united effort great things
could be accomp lished for NeWberry.

Big Nayies Needed.

Ambassador David Jayne Hill deliv-
cred the inaugural lecture of his
course under the James S. Carpenter
Foundation, in Earl Hill, Columbia
University, before an audience which
taxed the capacity of the auditorium.
He spoke of 1.-THE State as an Embodi-
ment of Law" declaring in the course
of his address that executive arma-
ment is tending "to excite universal
suspicion, create unnece ssary alarm,
and produce a situation which is arti-
fetal, unreasonable, and extremely
dangerous"
The speaker, however. said he did
not favor complete disarmament, be-
cause navies are effectual for the pro-
lection of life and property, and fol
the maintenance of order in turbul'
ent parts of the world. the world to-
day is in a condition of polite interna-
tional anarchy, he added. Some fifty
or sixty potentates, said DR.. Hill, as
sert the right to start war at the1I
sweet pleasure"
Speaking of the change in sentiment
toward government DR.. Hill said
1.-The state can no longer speak OF
act irresponsibly in the name of the
Deity, or clothe itself in the garb OF
superhuman attributes or divine supre-
macy"
1t was recalled in this connection
that Emperor William recently reaf-
firmed his belief in the divine right OF
kings to govern.
I'VE must first of all recognize the
fact" continued DIR. Hill, that over
very much of the earth's surface, on
all the continents, and in the greater
groups of islands, the state is firmly
established; and jural law, with it's
accessories of physical protection even
now prevails. Not only so, but by the
combined efforts of civilized nations
piracy has been driven from the seas
and the advance of trade and colon
ization, supported by governmental
safeguards, has left only a few geo.
graphical areas where it is not safe for
civilized man to penetrate.
This achievement has been render
ed possible by the effective arming of
responsible public powers, and espe-
ciaIly by the mobility afforded to the
means of exercising their superiority
through the development of modern
navfes.
Regarded from this point of view,
the immense advantages secured by
the ability to protect life and property
terests in regions where the state has
no established authority fully justify
a great interest in power upon the sea.
When intended as an effectual means
for the maintenance of order in tur-
bulent portions of the earth, or as a
necessary instrument for the defense
of exposed territories, no reasonable
man can object to the augmentation of
the power of the state in this direction.
When needed for these purposes a
powerful navy is the most trustworthy
auxiliary of law and New
York Times.

A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER.

Not SO many years ago in Kansas it
would have been deemed an act of po-
litical anarchy or a piece of aFFant
political treachery if any appointing
power in the state had had the temerity
to go beyond the confines of the COM
monwealth for any kind of a man to
fill any kind of a state Office, or posi-
ton. All appointments to state posi-
tons were looked upon as righteous
spoils by the representatives of the
party in power Nor was it unusual
under these conditions for a man to
be appointed to an important public
position who was almost wholly I'M
fitted for it either through ability or
experience. The appointing power was
merely paying a political debt.
Yet the other day the state railroad
commissioners gave the best job at
their disposal to a man who is a
stranger to Kansas. Mr.. Carl L. Witt,
railroad engineer of much experience
and who has more recently been en-
ployed by the South Dakota railroad
commission, was appointed by the rail-
road commissioners to take charge of
the important and onerous task of
making a physical valuation of the rail-
road properties in the state. His salary
is to be $4,000 a year. one of the larg-
est salaries paid to any of its public
servants by Kansas.
Has there been any protests about
this appointment? Has there been any
wailing and crashing of teeth among
the political allies of the appointing
power because one of their number was
not remembered with this patronage?
Not a single whisper along this line
has been heard. And what a healthy
change of conditions this bespeaks?
Efficiency is becoming the watchword
of the day in the administration of pub
| lie affairs as we'll as all others. The
| best man that can be found for an i'm
| portant public position is the one who
| gets it, 1t doesn't matter either If
he isn't a native son. Timbuetoo may
have been his former home. If he's
the man for the job, that is all that
counts.
OF course this practice has not be-
| come very general as yet. But a good
start has been made. 1t wasn't so long
ago that Topeka imported a city engi-
neer from another locality in the state,
and little if any protesting was heard.
This custom has prevailed, however, in
European states and cities for many,
many years. Experts in their line of
state and municipal administration
have been sought out for places in
state and municipal governments re-

Tied Dog to Hot stove.

Next time Joseph Carman has a dog
to care for he won't tie the animal to
the stove in the railway station in Yer
non, N. J., where he is master. He
did that the other night. and the sta
ton was nearly burned down.
Carman got the dog with baggage
he had to handle in hurry. He had
to tie up the creature, and saw no
place but the stove, so doggie was
moored to the furnace.
When Carman was out on the plat
form along came the village dog. The
baggage room door was open and he
peered in. There was a rustic, a growl,
tug, and a crash of overturned stove
and falling stovepipe. Smoke poured
from the doorway, and with it a great
assortment of howls and gFowls.
Carman got the dog free from the
stove, then put out the blaze, then set
up the stove. and then-well, the way
that dog yelped as he fed down the
track showed Carman' shoe was heavy
