THE CRISIS AT OUR COLLEGE.

It is to be hoped that the people OF
Newberry will rally to Newberry COL
lege, and help the present campaign
for new endowment to successful Is
sue The college is no. going to have
such a chance again in many years.
There never was a time when the slo-
gan, do it now," was so applicable.
The college must have fifty thousand
dollars by June 1, to get twenty-five
thousand cash from Mr.. Carnegie. The
most of this amount is already in
hand. If Newberry will pledge ten
thousand dollars the fund is assured.
Surely the people of this town will not
let the present opportunity slip.
This is public matter, a matter OF
great civic pride and importance. Not
only will it pay the community fnan-
cially in building the Greater New
berry, but it will pay it in finer re-
turns of added prestige and moral in
fuence-returns that are not measur-
able in terms of dollars and cents.
We understand that the terms are
exceedingly liberal, allowing the per-
son of small means, as we'll as the
person of wealth, to take some part.
AS President Harms explained yester-
day in his address at the Lutheran
church, subscription of any amount,
payable in convenient 'instalments in
four years, will serve to make this Ell
fort successful. Every young man in
Newberry, every business man, every
citizen of whatever income, can afford
to do share.
The time has come to act quickly in
this matter, to insure the raising OF
this fund of seventy-fYe thousand fol-
our college.

Georgia primaries last week. in which
the following occurs:
Not less than one hundred thousand
dollars have been spent in Georgia for
Underwood to debauch the electorate
of the State in favor of Underwood.
Gov Wilson's friends had no campaign
fund"
That is a fierce arraignment of the
electorate of Georgia; but it doesn't
ring true On the face of it. In the first
place, Wilson had enough money left,
after wandering about all over the
country, to take a trip through Geor-
gia. We don't suppose the railroads
carried him free; if they did, that
amounts to the railroads putting up
an election fund. We have not been
under the impression, since he ap-
piled fof a pension, that Wilson him.
self was unduly rich.
II the next place, we have faith in
the electorate of the South, and we
refuse to believe that Georgia, or
Florida, either, for that matter, can be
bought and her free white citizecs
voted like sheep.
We have reached a pretty pass in
the South if a hundred thousand dol
lars can buy an election in Georgia.
and debauch the Georgia electorate.
The trouble with the Wilsoniacs is
that Underwood is making too great
gains in the race for the Democratic
nomination, to suit them.
"Plunderbund"-a word recently
made famous by a Georgia colonel,
one Fielder! "Plunderbund''--a word
applied by the Wilsoniacs to any Will
son opposition!
"Plunderbund"-a wori hurled in
discriminatory by those who give pub
lication to charge that the electorate
Of Georgia has been ,lebaucned with
pitiful hundred thousand dollars:
Are the people going TO stand for
such tactics?
Are the people going to be whipped
into line by fear that if they vote as
their conscience dictates, fanatical
newspapers will class them as de-
bauched?
Here's hoping Mr.. Underwood Nigh
ty well.
