FIppLERs' CONVENTION.

AS there was good reason to antici-
pate, there was large crowd OF people
at the Fiddlers' convention held In
the High school building at Hickory
Grove last Saturday night. They were
from the town, and from the surround
ing country for many miles around,
and the occasion was in every respect,
from the standpoint Of pleasure and
satisfaction, as well as door receipts,
a big success.
The crowd, considerably more than
hundred having gathered, the enter
tainment commenced at $50, and was
kept up in a continuous round OF fun
and frolic until 10.15, when everybody.
thoroughly pleased with the entire
programme, the things that were down
and the things that were not, dis
persed to their homes feeling that they
had gotten the worth Of their money
twice over and ready for another ex-
perience of the same kind when some
future occasion shall present.
There were fourteen contestants for
the various prizes offered as follows:
Fiddlers: Messrs. w. J. Blackwell,
C. S. Westmoreland, H. B. Mcdaniel,
John Ross, Alfred Davis, A. F. Plex-
leo, Morgan Horton, J. ]. J. Robinson.
Banjoists: Messrs. ]. T. Harmon.
James Porter, John Kennedy.
Dancers: Messrs. Vernon Temple
ton, Morgan Horton, j. T. Harman.
The fiddlers were first on the boards,
then the banjoists and then the dan
GERS, each following the other In quick
succession, the programme changing
from fiddler to dancer, from dancer
to banjoist and from banjoist back to
fiddler. All acquitted themselves
handsomely, and they, especially the
fddlers, furnished some startling sur
prises, and the audience, more par
ticularly the younger generation, 10
whom such things are not as common
as to the generation that has gone be-
fore.
The judges were Revs. Justice and
Kerr and Mr.. LatimOre. They listened
carefully and at the conclusion OF the
performance weighed intelligently the
merits of each contestant. There was.
in the Judgment Of the committee a
tie for the first prize between two of
the contestants, Messrs. Robinson and
Davis, and these were required to go
on the stand again and each play an
other piece to settle the tie. The tie
was decided in favor Of Mr.. Robinson
and the honors were announced as
follows:
Best fiddler. J. ]. Robinson,$ $500.
Second Best fiddler-Alfred Davis,
5000.
Best dancer-Morgan Horton. $500.
Best banjoist-John Kennedy, $500.
After the awarding Of the prizes,
the Hickory Grove Cornet band gave
delightful musical concert that add
ed still more to the pleasure of the
occasion.
The door receipts amounted to more
than $50, and were entirely satisfac-
tory to the promoters and manage
ment Of the entertainment.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1911-03-21

South Carolina has suffered much in
the past and is still suffering from
disregard of the law. There is a pre-
vailing If not predominant senti-
ment, that the individual citizen
should consider what he wants to do
rather than what it is right for him to
do. We would not like to undertake
to place the blame for this state of
affairs other than to attribute 1t to
the inherent perverseness of human
nature; but we will say that in gen.
eral way the lawyers-or rather
class of lawyers-are largely RESPONSE
BILE. The fundamental principle upon
which the legal attorneyship was es-
tablshed as a recognized institution
of modern civilization, was that the
lawyer would stand only for that
which is right. Theoretically, he was
supposed to contend not to win; but
to vindicate the law. The idea could
go so far as to contemplate that If he
knew the law and the facts to be
against him, he should acquiesce even
though he could prevail. There are
lawyers who live up to that principle,
and there is no higher type of man to
be found. But that Is not the rule.
The rule, rather is to get there, no
matter how, but get there. This in
fiuence is not without effect on all who
come in contact with it, and there has
developed a widespread sentiment that
laws are not to be obeyed; but rather
evaded, and the man who is most sue
cessful in the practice of evasion is es-
teemed by many as the smartest.
There are those who will take it as
old fogyism; but it is a fact never
theless, that without law and order
the strict observance of laws-there
can be no security to life or property
and no guarantee of the right to pur-
sue happiness. The man who really
stands for law and order is Of the
highest and best type, and the man
who would subvert the laws of the
land belongs to a dangerous class. AL
though not so recognized, violation of
any law is really an offense against
the entire public, and if the public
would protect itself to the fullest, it
would recognize and act on this fact.
