The king of Denmark has promised
to be present at the Copenhagen city
hall Aug. 3 to receive on behalf of
Denmark from the Danish-American
committee the national park which has
been purchased in Jutland at the in
stance of the committee of which DR..
Henius is president. This park en-
braces some 300 acres of typical, pic
turesque Jutland moorland. Under
modern developments this open moor
country is fast disappearing, so the
purchase was particularly timely. A
cantata, specially written and com
posed for this occasion, will be sung
end DR.. Henius will deliver an address.
Dr. Henius is well known In Chicago,
where he Is one of the leading Danes
on the West Side, and has taken a
great deal Of interest in Danish-Amer-
lean culture In general in this country.
On the evening OF Aug. 8 at Copen-
hagen the corporation of Copenhagen
will entertain the distinguished Amer
lean visitors and there will be a grand
fete. The members of the committee
will afterwards proceed to Rabild, the
name Of the park, where on Aug. 8 the
festivities will be continued and the
prince of Denmark will par
ticipate.

From Copenhagen m a dispatch
denying the truth of the report that
the Danish West Indies are to be sold
to the United States. This rumor has
been current for some time. but the
Politiken, q leading daily paper Of
Copenhagen, denies this. It is stated
furthermore that a political faction in
Denmark desired that the islands be
sold to the United States, inasmuch
as they did not bring Denmark any
economic results. Yet since 1t. was
decided to improve st. Thomas harbor
there has been a decided change of
sentiment In Denmark and the popular
belief now is that the government will
under no circumstance surrender its
tight and suzerainty over the West
Indies. On the other hand there are
reports to the eject that Danish syn
cicates are planning extensive indus
trial projects on the islands.

DO THEY KNOW?

Senator Strait, who stood by the
Bleatoes is from Ira B. Jones coun-
ty of Lancaster. Maybe there's a
reason as C. w. Post would say
Anderson Daily Mail.
We heard the senator say not so long
ago that the Bleatoes would certainly
carry Lancaster county in the pri-
maries the coming summer, We do
not know whether he knew what he
was talking about or not.-Newberry
Herald and News.
There are some people, too, Brother
Aull, who are talking it that the COVER
nor will not carry Newberry county
this summer. We do not know wheth-
er they knew what they were talking
about or not-Greenville Piedmont.
We are not surprised that people
are talking it" We wouldlsay, how
ever, that Brother Aull does not know
what Newberry county will do the
coming summer, and has made no ef-
fort to find out. If we we're to ex-
press an opinion, however, it would
be that there will be very few
changes in this county. You must re-
member, also, that all three Of the
candidates for governor are from New
berry, and no doubt will claim New
berry for their own this summer.

NOTICE OF ELECTION.

WHEREAS, one-third of the resi-

the resident free-holders of the age OF
twenty-one years, Of Utopia School
District, No. 10, of NeWberry County,
State of South Carolina, have filed a
petition with the County Board OF
Education of Newberry County, South
Carolina, petitioning and requesting
that an election be held in the said
School District on the question Of re-
pealing one mill of the special annual
tax of two mills heretofore voted, le-
wed, and collected On the property 10
Gated in the said School District.

en-, but that is the way they see it.
We believe it is fact that great
many of those in the legislature now
will not go back even if they stand
for reelection, but it will not be SO
much an issue of Blease as an issue
of fair play and a sq&are deal. The
people of South Carolina believe in
giving the devil his dues and unless
We are mistaken they will be found
doing it. We do not endorse by a
long ways all that Blease has said
and done, but we do believe in a
square deal and fair play, and that
Blease has not had from the press OF
the State nor from the present legis-
lature.

Columbia is agitating the question OF
a rest room for the ladies from the
town and country. There is nothing
so valuable to a town as good and
comfortable rest room. 1t is a con-
venience and comfort.
Newberry has the best arrangement
for a convenient and commodious rest
room of any city we know. The old
court house building should be used
exclusively for public purposes. The
entire lower floor should be turned
into a public library and rest room
and the upstairs should be used as a
public hall for county conventions,
meetings of the farmers and other
public gatherings, and the rooms
should not be rented at all to private
parties. Then provision should be
made for the proper care of the rooms
and building. Such a convenient and
comfortable building can not be Sc
cured in any other part of the city.
To tear the building down would be a
waste of property that would cost
thousands of dollars to replace. Why
not every one unite on making this
an ideal place for public purposes? 1t
can be done if the proper authorities
will take the matter U hand.
The grounds around the building
should be parked and the rest of the
public square paved and we would
then have one Of the prettiest public
squares in the State, and one of the
most convenient and comfortable rest
rooms and Libraries anywhere and a
property that would be the pride of
the city and county. And at the same
time it would be a great cmofort and
convenience to our lady friends from
the county.

Under the head OF "Bleaslsm" the
News and Courier carries the follow
ing double-leaded editorial:
Protest is made against the disposi-
ton already evidenced in more than
one county of South Carolina to bring
out next summer Blease and anti
Blease tickets; but why should any
one object to this being done? What
else, indeed, is there for Governor
Blease and his friends to do? His
dictatorship has been fouted by every
department Of the State government,
save one, which does not shine by
contrast, and in the general assembly
his yetoes have been overriden by
wholesale, his lawless preachments
have met with sharp and dignided re-
buke and the most extraordinary
measures have been deemed neces-
sary for the protection Of legislation
from his ruthless hand.
"The issue is clearly drawn and it is
the issue of Bleasism. If the governor
believes that he can be reelected why
should he not endeavor to have elected
with him State officers who will do his
bidding and legislature which will
answer to his every whim? What 9TH
er possible course is there before him?
His present position must be intoler-
able. He surely would not wish to
perpetuate it for another two years. -
AS we see it, and as we believe a
majority of the people see it, it is not
an issue of "Bleasism,' but an issue of
fair play and square deal, and that
is going to be the issue above all
others in the coming campaign. The
friends of the governor have not made
the issue of Blease anc anti-Blease
tickets for the legislature, but the
thing has been suggested by those
who are fighting Blease, and fighting
him whether fairly or unfairly, and
taking everything that may be twisted
against him and printing it in black
type while hiding anything that might
be considered as favorable to him.

THE IDLER.

y
I noticed in a paper that 1 was
reading the other day where a man
committed suicide Or died from the ef-
fects of drinking too much water. Just
think of that. I think we better ask
our legislature to pass bill prohibit
ing the drinking of water. 1t might
be possible it seems to me for man
to be killed from eating a Charleston
waffle, or one Of those square meals
in the city of Columbia, but who would
ever have dreamed that a man could
kill himself by drinking water. J. eX-
pect that water had not been analyzed
and possibly it contained some sort of
modern germ, or had bacteria in it Of
some kind I say that a man might
be intemperate in the use of a Char
lesion waffle or a Columbia square
meal, but the idea of being Incorporate
in the use of water-the very idea is
preposterous to my mind. I reckon it
is true after all that we may be intem-
perate in the use of other things be-
sides beer and kindred beverages.
The following from Frank Stanton
in the Atlanta Constitution is very
good and I want to pass it on. I reck-
on he won't object:
The Doubtful Predicament.

This reminds me of a paragraph l
read in book the other day. 1t was
speaking about the duties of the edi-
tor of a daily paper. 1t applies to
newspaper writer's VINO try to do some
thing. Here it is, read it: Deeper
than the grind of the routine detail,
was the constant opposition and ad-
verse criticism to which his newspap-
er, like every other one, was inces-
sanity subjected. 1t has long been a
trite observation that no reader of
any newspaper is so humble as not
to be outspokenly confident that he
could run that paper great deal bet
ter than those who actually are run
ming it. Every outstanding man who
pays a cent for daily journal con-
siders that he buys the right to abuse
it, nay incurs the manly duty of abus-
ing it. Every editor knows that the
highest praise he can expect is silence.
If his readers are pleased with his re-
marks, they nobly refrain from COM
ment. But if they disagree with one
jot or little of his high speed disserta-
tions, he must be prepared to have
quarts of ink squirbed at him forth
with" And so it goes. We take de-
light in faultfinding but never think
a word of commentator worth while.
I don't mind criticism, if it be honest
criticism that comes from difference
of views and opinions. But 1 despise
this little carping gossip which can
come only from little minds and
dwarfed souls. I don't want every one
to agree with me. I don't like to be
too unanimous. But lets do something.

The editor sends me word that an

number of ladies had told this old lady
that they were tired of reading my
sermons, and that they wanted me to
do something to help them, the ladies,
they could hear the preachers preach
on Sunday. Well, now that is some
thing, isn't it? And I have been so
proud of my sermons, too, and really
thought everybody else was looking
for them with eagerness and would be
disappointed when they didn't come.
