The Newspaper.

Running a newspaper is a
hard job. The editor and man
ayers path is strewn with
thorns. He has to stay on the
job early and late, he has to
take abuse for saying what he
does say, and gets abused for
what he doesn't. He stands up
for the home folks first, last and
all the time and they in turn
cuss him out. The subscribers
to his paper abuse the paper
and do not pay for it. The local
merchant says the paper is no
account, and he won't spend a
dollar for advertising-and you
can't run good paper on hot
air and cold potatoes. If the
home office bids 35c higher on
a job than the out-of-town fell
low does-the job goes out of
town.
When you are born the local
paper announces the fact to the
world, your prosperity, your
success, your virtue and good
deeds are heralded in the local
sheet, and your vices and
wrong-doings are overlooked
by it; when you die your virtues
are enumerated and you are
praised, and the editor sends
you on your way to your long
home with a good recommends
tion from the old home town
for all of which he gets a
meagre existence and an unpaid
subscription list sprinkled with
a few promises of advertise
ments which he never received
yet somebody must perform
the disagreeable task, for it's a
mighty poor town that hasn't q
newspaper and if the paper were
to die a natural death from
want of support every fellow ir
town would wake up and make
contribution to get another
one going. Don't let the paper
die, support it now !-KershaW
Era.

SPARTANBURG ADOPTS
NEW CITY GOVERNMENT

Vote is Nearly Two to One
Same FactiOnal Lines Drawn
as Appeared in Gubernatorial
Election.
Spartanburg Special to The
Charleston News and Courier.
Feb. II: BY vote of 496 to
29O, the electors of Spartan
burg yesterday adopted the.
commission form of govern
ment as provided by an act of
the general assembly passed
last year. The same factional
lines were drawn in the cleo
tion as appeared in the guber-
material primary last summer.
The precincts which gave Gov
ernor Blease a majority were
overwhelmingly against the
commission plan, and those
which were carried by Judge
Jones were just as strongly in
favor of the plan. The four
cotton mill precincts opposed
the commission plan.
The city, under the commits
sion plan, will be governed by
mayor and four councilmen-
at-large, who will serve four
years, save that the two coun-
cilmen receiving the smallest
vote at the election shall serve
only two years. Two council
men shall be elected every two
years thereafter. An amend
ment to the act pending in the
legislature reduces the number
of councilmen from four to two.

carnegie Free Library.
Gatfney Special to Columbia
State, Feb. 13: In an election
held here yesterday two i'm
portant questions were dispos-
ed of, both in the affirmative.
The question of a school bond
issue of 100000 for the pur-
pose of improving the two pres
ent schools, the Cherokee ave-
nue. school and the central
school, passed by a good ma
iority. This vote also carries
with it provision for the pay
ing off of past indebtedness and
the constructing and equipping
of a new school. The measures
provide for $4,000 for the pay
ing off of past Indebtedness,
$4,000 for improvements at the
two old schools and $4,000 for
the erection of a new school.
The vote was in the affirmative
by good majority.
The election on the question
of voting one-half mill tax on
real and personal property in
Gaffney for the maintenance of
the Carnegie free library also
passed by good majority.
This provides that if Mr.. Car
negie should not make the gift
for Gaffney that the tax levy
will not be in force.

GRIEF and PRIDE
THRILL ENGLAND

THRILL ENGLAND
Country Mourns Sons Lost i'm
the Antarctic-NatiOn Will
Care For Those Dependent
on Victims of the Cruel
Southern Cold.
London, Feb. 13.-Grief and
pride over the simple narrative
of courage, endurance and sac
rifice given in Capt. Robert F.
Scott's farewell message to the
world are close competitors for
dominance in the feelings of
the British public today.
"1t is a white and not a black
mourning we wear for these
gallant souls, who have done
and dared so greatly" was the
comment of cabinet minister
today. The closing words of
Captain Scott's epic were:
Had we lived | should have
had a tale to tell of the hardi-
hood, the endurance and the
courage of my companions
which would have stirred the
heart of every Englishman.
These rough notes and our dead
bodies must tell the tale. But
surely, surely, a great and rich
country like ours will see that
those who are dependent upon
us are properly provided for"
These words have had an
electric effect. Steps are on
foot to respond to his appeal to
the nation by assuring COM
Portable future for those de-
pendent upon the men who,
while awaiting certain death,
could still write that they did
not regret their journey.
Captain Scott's interest in
the welfare of his men was en-
phasized by practically the last
business transacted in New
Zealand. This was the sale of
his story.
He declined to make any pri-
vate profit from the transaction
and decided that the total re-
ceipts should go to increase the
financial reward of the men who
had undertaken to share with
him the dangers of the Antarc-
tic region.
1t was therefore arranged
that all funds realized from the
story of the adventure should
| be distributed to the members
of the crew as a surprise bonus
on their return to England.
Mrs. Scott is assured of a
good pension from the British
government.
A memorial service for Cap
tain Scott and his companions
S to be held in st. Pauls cathe-
dral Friday.
Flags in all parts of London
are flying at halfmast today.
The tragedy Of Captain
Scott's Antarctic expedition
was referred to yesterday in the
house of commons by Premier
Asquith,
1--WE all at this moment are
under the deep impression
created by the reading Of the
last message to the world left
by Captain Scott" said the
premier.
"It is the message of a brave
enduring man in the face of g
most tragic death. His career
was one of self-sacrifice anC
devotion to the service of his
country. We can only say that
his last appeal will not fall or
deaf ears"
The committee of the British
Antarctic expedition will issue
a national appeal for fund tC
provide for the relatives of the
dead explorers.

Johnny Chuck was missed from his
old home on the Green Meadows. If he
had known how much he was missed he
certainly would have tried to go back
for at least a call on his old neighbors.
There had been great surprise when 1t
had been discovered that Jimmy Skunk
was living in .Johnnys old house. and at
first some of the little meadow people
were inclined to look at Jimmy wee bit
distrustfuily when he told how Johnny
Chuck had given away his house. But
when Johnny sent back word by the
Merry Little Breezes that it was true
they believed Jimmy Skunk and forgot
the unpleasant things that they had be-
gun to hint at about him. But they one
and all thought that Johnny Chuck must
be crazy Yes. sir. they thought that
johnny Chuck must be crazy. They were
sure OF it when the Merry Little Breezes
brought word of how Johnny had started
out to see the world.
But all were SO busy about their own
affairs in the beautiful bright springtime
that they couldn't spend much time won
dering about Johnny Chuck. They missed
him every time they passed his old house
and then forgot him; that Is most OF the
little meadow people did. Peter Rabbit
didn't Peter used to stop every day to
all the news. And now that Johnny
Chuck was no longer there Peter missed
him greatly. Jimmy Skunk was always
asleep or off somewhere. Besides. he
was such a traveller that he knew all
the news almost as soon as Peter himself.
The Merry Little Breezes told Peter
that Johnny Chuck was still on the Green
Meadows, hunting for ne whone, so
Peter made up his mind that just as soon
as Johnny got settled Peter would hunt
him up and call. You see he never
dreamed that Johnny would leave the
Green Meadows, and he thought that Of
course the Merry Little Breezes would
tell him just where Johnny Chuck's new
house was whenever II was built. But
there is where Peter made a. mistake.
The Merry Little Breezes are the frinds
of all the little meadow and forest people,
but they wouldn't be very long II they
told everything that they find out
Their merry tongues they guard full we'll
And things they shouldn't never tell;
For long ago they learned the way
To keep y secret night and dag.
And 50 when they found Johnny
