To the Citizens Of West vEginihs
Greeting. ..s<1'tf sESif
The highest purpose of all good
American citizens ought to be. the
con >ervation Of the liberties guaran-
teed by the organic law OF our Re-
public. IT Is self evident that ma
tton can be no greater than the
standard of its citizenship, and tho
greatest patriot OF this day is he
who labors to keep inviolate the con-
stitutiona' guarantees Of free speech,
free press and lawful assemblags.
The best citizen is he who raisss
his voice in behalf Of the downtrod-
dem and oppressed, and who en-
dearors through economic and politi-
cal effort to develop a better man.
hood, a nobler womanhood and a
happier .chilhood-the, greatest as
sets Of & great nation, It is
matter Of extreme regret to all think
ing and patriotic citizens that most
unhappy. state OF affairs exists in bur
! beioved State, rising indeed to an
actual ard alarming, state of warfare
growing out Of the strike of the coal
! REiners H. the counties Of Fayette
h'td Kanawha. We believe that there
is urg:n need for action by our
! [ e"islature in the shape of just and
we'll considered laws respecting the
relations u: employers and employees
The consideration of such legislation
heretofore has been prevented by
' nowerfu1 non-nartisan lobby, which
is the invisible government, - and
which has been able to defeat all such
legislation. This non-partisan lob
NV has exercised it's sinister power
so effectually and so viciously that
-nracticelly all community Of interest
between employer and employe has
heen destroyed. 1t is evident that
there can never be industrial peace
in West Virginia until there is indus
trial justice. The power to make
laws must be shifted from this in
visible, sinister government to the
visible anC rightful government, or
dained By the neople.
Therefore, We hereby issue this

The College Lyceum.

The patrons of the college lyceum
have series of splendid entertain
ments ahead of them. The attractions
this year will be very hish-class and
satisfactory in every way. Each one
is an event, and the college is paying
high prices for each company and
lecturer to come to Newberry, because
it believes the Newberry people want
the best and will support series of
real artists in the business. One OF
the numbers, for instance, will be Ern-
est Gamble, the great baritone, and
his concert company Prof. Frank w.
Chapman has been appointed to man
age the lyceum course this year.

BETTER FORM BOOKKEEPING
Supplement to Mines Arithmetic May
Be Secured Free OF Charge-Cali
At Book Store.

The following letter from State
superintendent of education to the
county superintendent and teachers
will be of interest to many of the
readers of The Herald and News. 1t
is published in full for their infor-
nation.
To the County Superintendents,
Teachers, Trustees and Patrons of
the Free Public Schools. Gentle
men:
Recognizing the need of better farm
bookkeeping, and more accurate meth
DDS of calculating gains and losses
among the great mass of our people,
the State board of education has au-
thorized the enclosed farm supple
ment to the arithmetic adopted for
use in the free public schools. The
problems are especially adapted to
industrial conditions in South Caro-
lima. They have been carefully Sc
lected and classified in the hope Of
interesting every rural teacher, trus-
tee and patron.
The pamphlet will be distributed
free to all pupils possessing Mines
Arithmetic, Book No. 2. The new adi-
ton of this book will contain the sup
plement, but purchaser Should b.
careful to secure the pamphlet, which
will be furnished free by every local
text book depository.
A supplement will also be added to
Ritchie's Human Physiology, giving
full and correct information concern
ing the work of the State board of
health A copy of this pamphlet is
also sent for your information, and
all teachers are urged to call at the
local text book depository for suf-
fcient number to meet the needs OF
their pupils. Since the 1911 edition
of the physiology could not contain
this material, pupils already possess
ing this book will be given the sup
plement free of cost.
If local dealers are unable to supply
both these pamphlets upon request,
kindly notify me at once.
Yours respectfully,
J. E. Swearingen,
State Supt. of Education.

A Curiosity.

If you never saw duck that looked
like a sweet potato you can see a
sweet potato that looks like duck
at the beef market of E. L. Rodelsper-
ger.
1t was sold to Mr.. Rodelsperger
among some other potatoes by Mr..
d. A. Rivers. The formation is a near
perfect figure of duck without feet.
The potato in the window resembles
a duck in sitting posture and is
altogether a remarkable freak in the
vegetable kingdom. Looking at the
almost correct imitation of body,
neck, head, etc., the growth is puz-
zling as to how it should have happen-
ed to appear in just that shape. 1t is
up to the scientists to explain this
curiosity.

NEWBERRY COLLEGE OPENING.
The Fifty-Seyenth Session Will Be-
gin Thursday Morning, Septem-
Der 19.

The opening of the ffty-seventh
session of Newberry college will take
place next Thursday morning, Sep
tember 19, at S.45 o'clock. The session
bids fair to be the banner year in
point of attendance. The college au-
thorities have rented large dwelling
near the campus, which will be used
as dormitory for the accommoda-
ton of students who applied too late
for rooms in S1neltzer hall and the
Annex. More counties and States will
be represented in the next years at
tendance than ever before. The col
lege has grown rapidly in the esti-
nation of the people everywhere,
largely because of the wonderful rec
ord attained last year in literary and
athletic contests, and the stand which
Newberry men have taken in the va
rious universities.
Next Tuesday and Wednesday the
faculty will entertain candidates for
examination who will come to the
college to- work off conditions or seek
entrance to the freshman class. The
schedule of examinations will be post
ed Monday in Holland hall. The IA
Guilty meets today (Friday) at 5 o'clock
to take up the preliminaries of the
session.
The Newberry tech will have a
large attendance this year. Mr.. H. N.
Pye has been elected to assist Prof.
Chapman in this department. Mr.. Pye
! is a graduate of Georgia Tech, Allan
ia, and will prove a valuable addition
| to the teaching force at Newberry.
The gymnasium will be in charge of
Mr.. J. Bachman Smeltzer, of the class
of ~. Attendance at the gymnasium
will be compulsory and there is no
doubt this forward step in athletics
will mean much for the students of
the college. Nearly all OF the cham
pion varsity team of last year will
return and several likely candidates
for the team will join the college next
week. Basket ball and tennis will
have strong contestants for the honors
of next season.
The college buildings have been put
in good condition for the opening, and
everything is ready for the arrival of
the students. The Y. M. c. A. will
have committees here on Monday to
meet ali trains and help the new boys
get located in their new quarters.

Through TOrtures of Damned.

In introducing Governor Blease,
John V. Wallace, of Charleston, said
that during the last three months the
governor had gone through the tor
tures of the damned and had won. Re-
gardless, he said, of what John Gary
Evans or w. F. Stevenson might do,
Cole. L. Blease was going to be COVER
nor for the next two years. Mr. Wal
lace said that nearly two years ago,
after having been injured iby his shot
gun, he put the gun away and had not
taken it out of it's place since; but
that he knew where to find 1t at any
time and that if the time came when
an attempt would be made to cheat
Governor Blease out of the election,
he would be the captain of a company
to go to Columbia and defend the Gov
ernor and to keep him in the office
that was his.
Governor Blease opened his speech
with the story of the Cleveland Con-
vention of the Red Men, where he had
extended an invitation to the Great
Council to come here and where invi-
tations had also been extended to
