Shortage in School Taxes.

1t is a deplorable fact that the
taxes for tne support of the city
schools of Newberry amounted to
$770.5O less this year than last year.
But it is true in spite of the fact that
the enrolment was 81 greater than
the previous year.
s. ortage on the three mill consti-
tutional tax was $331.28; On four mill
special tax $372.72; on polls S44; on
dogs $3.50.
Are property values shrinking? Are
men and dogs emigrating? Really are
there only 35 dogs and '623 men in
Newberry subject to capitation tax?

Oh, we'd love each other better,
II We only understood.

l notice by the papers that Gov.
Slaton of Georgia had to call out the
militia to protect his country home
against the mob who had undertaken
to enter. 1t seems that ne had lot
of barbed wire fence put around the
premises to make tie entrance more
dangerous. All because he had COM
muted the sentence of Leo Frank. |
don't know anything about the Frank
case except what l read In ule news
papers but somehow l feel that Gov.
Slaton did the right thing i'll COM
muting the sentence. And l admire
the backbone of the man for doing
it in the face of t-e mob If Frank
is guilty he should die. If he is not
guilty he should be free. But with the
excitement that still exists it would
be scarcely possible for him to have
had fair trial. If there is doubt as
to his guilt he should have the bene-
fit of that doubt. That is what our
criminal laws say. Maybe after the
excitement passes the truth will come
out. But l am not referring to this
matter to discuss the guilt or the in
nocence of Frank, but to ask if our
civilization is a failure. What does
it all mean If We understood the
motives that actuated the governor
We mig-t understand But just think
of a mob going to the home OF the
chief executive of a great State and
threatening violence because he exer-
cised his constitutional right in grant
ing a communication to one convicted Of
crime. Then talk about our boasted
civilization. l have no doubt there
will be those who will be ready to
say that the governor made money
out of mis- communication in this case.
Now, I don't know Gov. Slaton but
do not believe anything of the kind.
If We could judge all deeds by mo-
tives it would be so much better.
Sometimes the motive is evil but be-
lieve that it is many more time pure
and sincere. But, well, 1 believe that
there are so many laws and so many
that are violated because they are
foolish laws, that there is growing up
in this country general disregard for
law. Even in our courts and during
my own brief recollection somehow
l do not believe that there is that
general regard for law and consti-
tuted authority that once prevailed in
! this country The tendency seems to
be toward the mob, if the jury and the
court do not agree to the popular
clamor And yet, I must believe the
people as whole are growing better.
At any rate We may all hope so, and
| if each one will contribute his or her
part there will be no question b1at
the world will grow better very rap
idly.

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?

The Herald and News has received
the following letter which We gladly
grint and would like to ask what it
means or rather what the resolution
means.
Seneca, S. c., June 21,- 1915.
The Herald and News, Newberry, S. c..
Dear Sir: At the last annual meet
ng of the South Carolina Medical as
sociation the following resolution was
adopted:
believing it is the duty of the news
paper to protect honest advertising
and protect readers from fraudulent
and deceptive advertising, the Medical
association Of South Carolina resolved
that it would request every newspaper
n the State of South Carolina to ac-
sept no medical advertising which is
;.ntagonistic to the public welfare, or
which is undeniably fraudulent or
deceptive"
The South Carolina Medical asso-
ciation would greatly appreciate any
such action on your part
Yours truly,
E, A. Hines,
Secretary Of the S. c.. Medical Associa-
.tion.
we know that the newspapers of
South Carolina are honest and try to
do the right thing. We do not believe
shat any newspaper in South Caro-
lima would accept knowingly any
fraudulent and deceptive adyertis-
ing" whether it be medical or other
wise. How is the newspaper to know
that the medical advertising is an
7agonistic to the public welfare" or
that it sis undeniably fraudulent or
deceptive"
# this refers to patent medicine ad-
Eertising our opinion is that practical
" all of the patent medicine is moth
ing but dope of some kind. Good
people buy it and take it because the
advertising describes the case so we'll,
end then there are good people who
give recommendations of the wonder
ful things this medicine has done for
them. We believe it was the dope all
the time that made the patient feel
setter. But why not stop the drug
cists from handling and selling? Why
Jrive your stakes at the little news
zapers? VINO is to be the censor and
determine which is fraudulent and
e.,eceptive" and which is "antagonistic
20 the public welfare?'
Maybe the use of the patent medicin
IS due to the ability of the vendors to
.,dYertise. But the Medical association
u hould specify what it means by
medical advertising which is antag-
9nistic to the public welfare" and what
y "undeniably fraudulent and decep-
we" Otherwise the insinuation is
nat the newspapers are knowingly

If We Only Understood.

Could we but draw the curtain
That surrounds each others lives,
See the naked heart and spirit,
Know what spur the action gives,
Often we should find it clearer,
Purer than we judge we should
We would love each other better,
If we only understood.
Could we judge all deeds by motives,
See the good and bad within,
Often we would love the SINNER,
All the while we loathed the sin.
Could we know the powers working
To o'erthrow integrity,
We would judge each others errors
With more patient charity.
If we knew the cares and trials
Knew the effort all in VAIN,
All toe bitter disappointment,
Understood the loss and pain.
Would the grim external roughness
Seem, l wonder, just the same?
Would we help Where now we hinder
Would we pity where we blame?
All, we judge each other harshly,
Knowing not life's hidden force;
Knowing not the fount of action
Is less turbulent at it's source;
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains Of good

All OF US at times are too harsh in

most persuaded that We don't some

am absolutely certain now that l
am dreamer, and l am so proud OF
it, and especially when you can live
long enough to see some Of your
dreams realized. A dreamer IS one
of those fellows who is always ahead
OF the times in which he lives, but
some of the great dreamerS of the
world have lived to see the realiza-
ton of t. cir dreams, and l believe
l am going to be in that class. Now,
l hear some one say, we'll, that fei-
low sure has his nerve with him and
doesn't mind talking about himself.
Well. so be it. What l am trying 10
lead up tC is that for many years
in fact from the beginning of this
column-my constant song has been
building a park for Newberry. The
park is coming. The land has been
secured and work has commenced. OF
course, the land has not been pur-
chased, but just so sure as the park
is opened for one year it will never
be closed. And now here comes the
Observer and tells about that sign that
stood across the street in front Of the
Office being taken down and then goes
On to say: "And now, having set the
example, the Observer is going to in
augurate crusade against overhead
signs across the sideWalk-one OF t1e
signs of an antiquated town. It is a
wonder the Civic association hasn't
been after these signs before now"
Well, bless your dear life, The Idler
called attention to these overhead
signs many years ago and said about
the same thing as to their being the
sign of an antiquated town. That was
one of our dreams and if it too should
come to pass we will be glad. We are
glad that the Observer is going to
wage crusade against them. L am
sorry I did not get my articles and
pat t2em in such form that they could
be used for ready reference, because
could quote from them and demon
strate that 1 had a dream like this OF
which 1 am now writing. There is
one thing about the dreamer. he is al
ways in good humor and never is
jealous or envious. These things are
foreign to his nature and so what he
dreams comes to pass he doesn't care
who takes the credit for it. Yes, let
the overhead signs go and the quicker
the better.
