lection. The package is sent on to the
addressee and the latter when the
postmaster hands him the package,
fills in receipt which is practically
an application for a money order. and
hands the postman the money due on
the parcel. The postman takes the
money as the money order application

The adoption Of the C. o. d. system

The Newberry Observer is persist
emily harping on the practice of news
papers in taking transportation from
the railroad companies in exchange for
advertising. We have not had any
thing to say on the subject heretofore; (;
but we are going to say this. We have
been, and are giving railroad advertis-
ing in exchange for transportation, and
we see no moral wrong in it. We feel,
however, and in fact we know, that the
railroad people get very much the best
of the bargain, and that from a busi-
ness standpoint, we as we'll as other
papers that follow this arrangement,
are pursuing a very poor policy. The
newspaper people should charge the
railroad people regular prices for ad-
vertising space and pay the railroads
regular prices of transportation. That
would be more satisfactory and better
business all round. But there is no just
blame to attach against the railroads in
this matter. If newspapers are getting
the worst of this arrangement as they
certainly are, they have only them
selves to blame.

the same a feeder and auxiliary Of the
regular army establishment. The
principal means employed of course,
was a large annual appropriation to be
divided among the states In proportion
to the strength and efficiency of the
militia in each state. The probable
outcome of such step was foreseen at
the time, and many of the states were
reluctant to adopt the Dick law, on the
ground that it would almost certainly
the state militia, and eventually under
mine the principle Of state sovereign
ty. It will be remembered that In this
state the Charleston News and Courier
opposed the adoption Of the Dick law
as vigorously as 1t knew how and
clearly predicted some of the things
that have recently come to pass It
was pointed out at the time that while
the Federal government did not In
terms assume authority over the mill
tia, it would in time through control OF
the purse strings, have things its own
way, and eventually the independence
and sovereignty Of the states In the
matter would come to be forgotten
The current incident involves this issue
exactly. OF course 1t is not claimed
that the national government has au-
thority to muster out company OF
the South Carolina national guard;
but there is no question Of the fact
that the war department whenever it
sees proper, can withhold the states
apportionment on the ground that Its
militia does not come up to required
standards. That is what has just been
attempted. and If the thing had been
carried through without the row which
has been developed, there would have
been established a precedent that
would have been a powerful factor In
future developments. So far as living
up to the Dick law at present Is con-
cerned, 1t is not being done by South
Carolina or any other state; but in this
as in other states, the regulations are
growing stricter and stricter, and there
is every reason to believe that even
tually the so-called national guard Of
the states will be absorbed into the
regular army.

WAR IN. THE BALKANS
Fighting Has Been Renewed All Along
the Line.

London, July 3.-The condition of
affairs in the Balkan rupture Is extra
ordinary. The twenty-four hours which
the Bulgarian government accorded to
Greece and Servia to cease operations
have expired. During the same period
Bulgaria undertook to abstain from
hostilities in order to give Russia time
to intervene in favor Of peace. But
hostilities are being carried on by both
sides, apparently with the fierceness
characteristic of the Balkan soldiers;
and no declaration Of war has yet been
made. The respective diplomatic rep
resentatives are still at their posts.
There is now only the faintest hope
that Russia or the powers will be able
to prevent the struggle which Is to de-
eide whether or not Bulgaria shall be
predominant In the Balkan confedera-
tion. '
War is to be declared by Servia
against Bulgaria at Uskup for which
place King Peter and Premier Pash-
itch departed from Belgrade this morn
ing. according to the Exchange Tele-
graph company. The proclamation will
state that Servia has been provoked by
Bulgaria to declare war.
A new complication arose today In
the decision of Roumania to mobilize
her army. What role Roumania will
play is quite unknown, but she Is gen.
orally expected to follow her tradition
al policy Of waiting on events, in read
mess to take advantage wherever 1t
may be obtained with the least risk
and trouble. Roumania's mobilization
causes uneasiness in Austria where 1t
is regarded as a defeat for Austrian
diplomacy.
Little news has come to hand today
Of the military operations in Macedonia
and owing to the fact that Bulgaria, as
In the former campaigns, Is very reti-
cent concerning her military move
ments and because the reports from
the Servian and Greek side are clearly
exaggerated, 1t Is exceedingly difficult
to form any estimate Of the actual po-
sition Of affairs.
l. Is believed from the disposition Of
her troops, that Bulgaria has carefully
prepared a plan to place some Of her
forces between the Greeks and Servi-
ans and prevent their junction and it
Is reported that Bulgarians are now
executing a great fianking movement
in the direction Of Egri Palanka.
The Belgrade government issued no
reports from the theatre Of war today,
but, according to a dispatch from Pre-
mier Pashitch to the Servian legation
at LOnuoH, tuc oeifidii loSSSS LII the
first three days fighting were 5000
killed and wounded. This included the
great battle at Ovtchepolye. The Ser
vians captured 1000 prisoners and
300 guns from the Bulgarians, whose
casualties exceeded the Servian. Sixty
of the prisoners were officers.
That very heavy fighting occurred is
confirmed by the arrival of 1000
wounded at Belgrade.
Official reports issued at Athens
claim the capture Of Guevgheli and
Kilkish after severe fighting and heavy
losses. 1t is added that Bulgarian
prisoners declare that the Bulgarians
are preparinp to attack Saloniki

A rehearsal of Pickett's charge on
Bloody Angle at Gettysburg, was the
great feature of the 50th anniversary
celebration at Gettysburg yesterday
About $50 Virginia survivors repre-
sented the Confederates, and about as
many Federals stood at the angle to
receive them. By reason of the age OF
the soldiers, the nature of the ground
ETC., the charge was slow and painful;
but when the angle was finally reach
ed, blue and gray fell on each others
necks and wept. There was handshak-
ing, cheers and speechmaking, and the
remarkable incident is declared to tru-
ly typify the final disappearance Of all
the rancor and hatred that was engen-
dered by reason of the war.
