Burial of Paupers.

Assistant City Secretary Cowen
a burial permit for a pauper woman
by the name of Guadalupe Alamon.
and. as the woman was very old and
had long been a familiar figure in
Brownsville, there had been some
opposition to the woman's being
given a regular pauper's funeral.
and that the city's practice Of bury
ing the remains of paupers in plain
pine boxes and conveying them TO
the cemetery in scavenger carts, had
been condemned. He had telephoned
Mr.. Hinkley, the undertaken, to find
out what it would cost to provide a
coffin and convey the body to the
cemetery in the hearse. Mr.. Hink-
ley offered 10 do so for SIS, the same
price that he charges the county for
pauper funerals. Mr.. COwen further
stated that several gentlemen had
informed him that, If the city would
not pay for the burial they would,
and that he had accordingly issued
the permit and authorized Mr.. Hink-
ley to do the work.
Alderman Cain was of the opin-
ion that the city should be able to
gives its poor as decent a burial as
the county. Alderman Blackshear
wanted to refer the matter to the
claims committee. DIR. Thorn how
ever, spoke of the folly of establish
ing a precedent and moved that the
city pay $500 of the amount, which
is lac more than the average cost OF
burial Of the poor. An ordinary city
pauper funeral costs 1886.
Election Officials.
o. G. Dancy appeared before h
council and stated that it was IL
legal for any person holding a
position of profit or trust" under

election official. Mr.. Dancy Salu
hat this made Mr.. Cowen, the clerk,
who has been appointed as an cleo

and also that Messers. Tiierina, in
spector of hides, and James M.

The Lyceum.

The Iyceum goers Of Newberry will
be entertained on Friday evening,
April -, by the Toronto Male quartet.
These celebrated singers are now
making their second tour Of the United
States, after two years Of phenomenal
success in their home city.
The sympathetic blending of voices
in ensemble, precision Of attack, and
brilliant forte effects produced, make
it equal, if not superior, of any quar-
tet now before the public.
The repertoire is varied and exten-
sive, including both classical and p5pu-
lar music, rendered in such a manner
as to please the most critical audience.
Scotch selections in costume and the
playing of the novelty instrument
marsharp, will add variety to the en-
tertainment.
This is a regular number Of the col
lege lyceuln course and all those hav-
ing season tickets are entitled to ad-
mittance. Those without the tickets
will be charged so cents admission.

DAMAGING ADMISSIONS.

Former Chief Justice Jones is ton
ing down his remarks little. Ac-
cording to the Greenville News report
of his speech at Fountain Inn on
Thursday, the ex-chief justice does
mot mean to say that every man who
voted for Governor Blease is an anar-
chist." Even if half of them were an
archists, South Carolina might put
Russia to shame along that line. But
it is something to have the minority
admit that not every one of the ma
jority of 1910 is an anarchist.
The former chief justice went fur
ther. He even went to the extent Of
saying he knows that there are lot
of good people throughout the State
who cast their ballots for him."
Shades of Gonzales! Is it possible
that it is admitted there was a single
decent citizen who voted for Blease in
1910!
1t is with much concern for Mr.
Jones that we await any further ad-
missions from him. 1t wouldn't take
many like that for him to admit him
self out of the favor Of those great,
good, glorious and pure people whose
hearts are panied that South Caro-
lima, not being subject to their every
beck and call, is bound straight for
that place of which Dante wrote.

1910!

Mr.. Carlisle, of the investigating
committee, brought out in the testi-
mony last week, and the newspapers
feature it, that Mr.. Dominick had a
pass, which he used on the c., N. &
L. railroad, and charged railroad fare
against the State. Mr.. Dominick did
not secure his pass on the railroad by
virtue of his position on the commits
sion, but for his service as local coun-
sci, and the State has no right to re-
ceive credit for railroad fare when
Mr. Dominick was using the pass, and
there is absolutely nothing in the init
nation that it was wrong to charge up
railroad fare. If Mr.. Dominick had re-
ceived the pass on account of his posi-
ton on the commission, then it would
have belonged to the State, and it
would have been wrong for him to
charge railroad fare when using it.
The State when paying the commit
tees to investigate should specify an
amount for expenses. This amount
should be large enough to cover actual
expe. ses, and then if a member Of the
committee should decide to walk to
the meeting and carry his lunch in a
knapsack, it would be his business, or
if he desired to spend twice the amount
Of the allowance, there would be no

The Spartanburg Journal very
thoughtlessly says that Hon. Cole. L,
Blease continues to give daily illus
trations of his eminent qualifications
to resume the practice of law at New
berry, S. C.-Greenville Piedmont.
Newberry, S. c., is a mighty good
place to practice law in, to furnish
governors, or for anything else. We
don't mean that people from Spartan
burg, S. c., or from Greenville, S. c.,
would be able to practice law here
without some additional special train
ing, but they might learn.
By the way, Newberry is furnishing
candidates for nearly every Office, and
We hereby place Doc. Cook, who
planted the Stars and Stripes on the
North pole, in nomination for the vice
presidency, on the Democratic and Re
publican tickets. We want him on
both, so as to eliminate every chance
of his defeat. Doc. Cook wasn't born
in Newberry, but he is Newberrian
by adoption.

The Greenville Piedmont suggests
that if fear of arrest is what keeps
Fielder away from South Carolina, the
committee might meet him and take
the testimony over in Augusta. The
idea is entirely practicable; but if fear
of arrest is one Of Mr.. Felder's reasons
for not coming to South Carolina, it
is not the only reason. The main rea-
son is that Mr.. Fielder has already got
ten all the money there was in it, and
that was absolutely and entirely all
that he wanted He cars no more
about the people of South Carolina or
their laws than he does about the FIJI
islanders, While it can hardly be SAID
that he got al he wanted, his interest
ceased when he realized that he had
gotten ali that he would likely De aHle
to get.-YorkvilIe Enquirer.
According to our way of thinking.

Mr.. H. x. Osborne, member of the
legislature from Spartanburg county,
was in Hendersonville, N. c., few
days ago and gave out statement in
regard to the political situation in
South Carolina. He, among other
things, says, that a person familiar
with the political situation can stand
on the street corner and point out the
respective followers Of Rlease or
Jones with few exceptions, there be-
ing a difference in the general appear
ance of the friends of the two aspirants
for the gubernatorial seat. There is a
middle ground of citizenship, he says,
for which the contest for office will be
waged.'' That statement is meant to
convey the idea that the Blease sup
porters belong to the rabble, while the
Jones supporters belong to the upper
ten," and is a pretty severe arraign-
ment of a majority of the citizenship
of South Carolina Mr.. Osborne is
himself a candidate for reelection to
the house from Spartanburg county.

The Mullins Messenger tells the
story of badly taught parrot which
perched itself upon pulpit during
service, and in the midst of the SER
mon, looking at the preacher and the

you! D-n you!" The preacher and
the congregation fed, but there was
an old woman on crutches who could
not get out. The parrot faced the
good old woman with continuation
of his sd-n you!," and the woman,
being unable to do anything else, rails
ed her crutch and said, Oh you
some, tool"
Mr.. Blease has said some things
which we have not approved of, and
do not approve of, but in reviewing
some of his harsh language, we might
think of how many times the "d-n
YOU was applied to him before he
got a chance.
