A FINE MEETING.

The men WHO run church synods
and associations could learn some
very yalauble lessons by attending the
sessions OF the woman's convention
meeting in our city at this time. We
were permitted to sit in the business
session for a little while one day.
That is, we went in and they didn't
put US out. For a body as large as
it is it was the most orderly meeting
We ever saw. The presiding officer
is gem as presiding officer. Every
thing moves like clock work and there
is perfect order IF you whisper to
your neigabor you are reminded quiet
ly that it must stop. Just how she
manages it is a mystery, but she
does. And she presides without CIV
ing the impression that she is in
authority If she could control the
members of the legislature like she
controls these women she would make
an ideal speaker of the house. And
you must remember that the court
house was filled to its capacity dur
ing all the sessions.
The papers read and tie talks made
at the evening sessions were far
above ordinary.
We are glad tne convention came
here and that these good women have
sojourned with us for few days. 1t
will do the town good. 1t has given
the men and the women of the com
munity something else than the low
price of cotton and the war and tie
hard times to talk about and to think
about. Their presence and their meet
ings will nave a good influence upon
the entire town and will Enger long
with many of our people after these
good women are gone. Besides they
are doing a good and a great work
for tie people of their State. We
hope their coming may be as helpful
to t. EN- as it has been to US. 1t has
been real pleasure to 3ave them
with US.
1t is inc meeting.

Friday, November. 1S, 1914.

What fine time it has been this
week to drag the roads. 1t would have
cost so little and would have been
worth so much that we wonder more
split log drags were not on the roads.
Just a little spent on the use of old
Mr.. S. L. Drag on the road between
Newberry and Prosperity would have
put that road in fine condition. And
yet we would not. 1t is a pity it is
true, and yet no one has done any
thing at all on this road. When will
we realize what We could do and now
little it would cost If we would only
cooperate and have a little public
spirit.

If Dolpa Jones issues the warrant
and says il is just claim the chances
are that it is. Sam Carter may be
right in refusing to pay the warrant
for the expenses of the warehouse
commissioner but we would bet on
Dolph Jones being right. He mas been
there a long time and the chances
are hundred to one that any claim
for which ne issues a warrant is JUS
tied by the law. 1t would have been
better for the extraordinary session
to have provided in it's appropriation
bill for the expenditure of the $4,000
which is carried in the warehouse bill,
but when Dolph Jnoes and the attor-
ney general say the warrant is prop
erly drawn we think Sam Carter
would be justified in paying it. We
believe this warehouse bill will be a
help to the farmer and we regret to
see it obstructed in its incipiency.

NOT POPULAR But TRUE.

It may not be the popular thing TO
say, but We believe it SO strong that
we cannot refrain from saying, that
we believe that the best thing for the
farmer and for the merchant and for
the banker is for the farmer, if ne
owes any money, to sell some cotton
at seven and a quarter cents and
pay something on his debts and thus
put the merchant and the banker in
a position help the farmer another
year,
Besides, if cotton should go to nine
or ten cents within y months it will
not pay the man wno owns it and
owes money to hold it even if he can
store it in a warehouse and borrow
On it. Until he pays lis interest and
bis insurance and warehouse charges
seven and a quarter cents now will
be more than nine or ten cents u
months from now And besides, and
further than that and greatest of all,
the @armer will not be worried about
that little debt that {he owes to get
rid of which will be worth more to
nim t>an an increase in price OF from
one to two cents the pound Pay all
you can and then go to work another
year to make something to eat and
you will not owe the merchant for the
rations that you ate to make the crop.
That is tie way it occurs to us, and
We are practicing as far as We are
able, what we are preaching. Debt
worry will shorten your life faster than

RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION
1t is a inc meeting.

We regret that some very ugly err
rors have crept into the paper re-
Gently, but they have been unavoid-
able We hope to get on the job again
in good saape very soon. The editor
;aad hoped that he would be able to
be relie1ed of the details of the office,
but since the war and the low price
of cotton he las to get back on the
job and will have everything in good
running order very soon. Of the fam
lily staff there are only two of Us left
the old man and the kid, and We are
getting things in fairly good shape,

anything we know of. But if you Aave
done all you could and the best you
can the angels could do no more. Prof
it by past experiences. Get on a cash
basis, and if you have reverses take
them like a man, and determine to
come out Of the fire better and a
stronger man than you were before.
We know it is hard to plant cotton
expecting to get from ten to 10 cents
the pound and then have to sell it for
seven and a quarter, and if you had
made your own provisions at home
and not gone on a credit to make the
cotton, you could then sit back and
say, this cotton cost me ten cents the
pound and l must have II cents tne
pound, or l will hold it, l don't have
to sell it," but if you owe Mr.. Mer-
chant or Mr.. Banker for the supplies
and the money to make it he has some
rigat of property in it also, and his
right should have some consideration,
or he will go broke too, and. then
what will we do.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1914-11-13

This sort OF talk may not be pop
ular but it is true. The farmer who
keeps his corn crib and smoke 4ouSe
in some merchants store or in tie
vaults of some bank is always brc:io,
it matters little w at The price CT cct-
ton may be. You know that is true.
If you don't believe it, before you
condemn what is 2ere written just
stop morent and look around
among your eighbors and take an
inventory of the all cotton farmer and
tie farmer who lives at home and if
you are ihonest in your inventory you
will be forced to conclude that what
is mere written is the good old gospel
truth. We just as we'll get down to
hard tacks and meet the issue square
ly and if we do business viii Ii, en-
up and money will get in circulation
and we will not know that there is
war or that there is an thing wrong,
but if we sit down and whine and
complain, the whole thing will go to,
the demnition bow vows and it won't

he long going. We are too great a
neople to contemplate for one moment
any SUCH situation. This is a time
when we must be men. 1t is not a
time for swadding clothes.
AS we said in tne beginning it may
not be popular TO say this but we
believe so strongly that it is true that
we just can't help saying it and now
that it is said we feel better and Il
YOU don't act on it there is no fault
OF ours. DO, as YOU please, but It IS
not a good business proposition to
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1914-11-13

and we have determined to give the
people of Newberry the very best
paper they have ever had, and we will
do so. In fact, we are doing so now
without any idea of attempting to
make comparisons or disparage any
efforts that may nave been put forth
in the past. Il. your subscription is
expiring, renew and keep up with the
local happenings. It has always been
our idea that a local county paper
should first be local paper and give
the happenings of the town and coun-
ty and what general news it could
print We have been here long time
and nel, er felt more like hard work
and tie capacity to perform it than
We do now. We know that We lave
been abused and misrepresented and
many times by people for wnom We
have done the most, but that does not
molest us in the least. We feel that
We have done what we could for the
advancement of the community and
will continue to do so to the end No
doubt We have been dealt with more
kindly than We deserve, and in many
respects the people of the community
have been good to us, all of which we
appreciate. The Herald and News mas
been here a long time-much longer
than the present editor, and will be
here when he has gone to his reward.
We have the files of the paper bound
back among the fifties.
Now what we want to say is t2at
tbs is time when you should keep
up your subscription. The price is
the same while everything else has
increased We charge the same as
when the paper was only published
once a week and when labor was
fifty per cent less than it is today.
II your time has expired renew. The
circulation man does not know any
one. When your time is out your
name goes off, it makes no difference
who you are, unless you ask us to
continue .or brief period which we
will gladly do provided t2at brief
period is really brief. When we ran
a credit system we ran a credit sys-
tenn. Now We are running cash sys-
TEN and it is cash to every one alike.
We have on our books some ten to
Is thousand dollars Eor subscriptions
alone, due by people who live or have
lived in Newherry and from whom we
do not hope to realize a cent. If we
had that it would put us on easy
street, but we are not complaining
about it. 1t was our fault, and we
heard a speaker say once that the
hardest fall he ever received was
when he looked back at the rock over
witch he had just stumbled-he fell
over bigger one in front he didn't
see because he was looking back. We
try to keep our eyes to the front
and to have faith in our fellowman,
but when it comes to subscription to
the paper tnat faith is based on the
cash in advance. We have said a great
deal more than we intended. Renew
your subscription promptly and keep
up with the procession. Amen!

Aershot, .Dinant and Numar, declared
he was going back to Germany to tell
his compatriots the state in which
he found these cities, which, he said,
were 4 disgrace. -,
Herr Etebknecht, who is now, the
war correspondent of the Berlin So
cialist newspaper, Vorwaertz, has
held: number of conferences with
the leading Belgian Socialists in his
tour of Belgium.
DR.. Liebknecht said the German

DR.. Liebknecht said German public
opinion had been excited over the
atrocities alleged to have been perpe-

proofs of German brutality and van

of his countrymen were inexcusable.
He expressed the hope that. the
German nation would soon know the
truth.
