the fact that it is vigorous enemy OF

devour quantities of them, and this Is

The Wisdom of Experience.

Mr.. j. Frank Ashe of McConnells-
Vile, was quoted in The Enquirer the
other day, as saying that if he had
known twenty years G what burr
clover would do as a soil remover, and
had the wisdom to look into the flu
ture. by this time he would be indie
~pendently rich. or words to that eff

No one need take our word for it,
for if those who do not know the fact
already, will take the trouble to go
down into the McConnellsville u
thy. see for themselves and inquire of
the neighbors they will find that Mr..
Ashe is one of the most thOrough-go-
ing farmers in the county; that he
lives at home. mostly on the products
Of his own farm. and that ne is in good
shape financially also.
We have o n out of our way TO
mention the facts above stated, only
to emphasize the point we desire to
make. which is this: The boys of to-
day. as a rule. have no more foresight
than Mr.. AShe had twenty years ago.
The fathers Of these boys, however,
have travelled over the same road that
MIR. Ash" has travelled, some with bet
ter and some with poorer success.
Let the father impress upon the boys
the full significance Of what MIR. Ashe
has said.
There are thousands of acres OF
land in York county, in many cases in
Guiding whole farms, that are poor
and unproduc:ive. If the owners OF
these lands continue to treat them in
the future as they have been treating
them in the past, they will be as poor

now as they are at h present time.

Now comes whole lot of complaint
from the politically ambitious against
the South Carolina congressional del
egation for rushing the Western dis
trict law through, with the appoint
ments made on top Of it. The COM
plant is that the delegation should
have left the whole thing open for a
while at least until the people" could
be heard from. The thing is funny,
in a way. In the first place we do
not think there was much need for
any Western district, except to pro-
vide for a new set of Federal court
officers. And in the second place, we
think the principal interest as to who
gets these offices, lies with the indi-
viduals who have aspirations in that
direction rather than with the people.
While we have not sufficiently init
mate acquaintance with Hon. Joseph
T. Johnson to warrant us in being
particularly emphatic in our estimate
of him, we have an impression that
llC 10 dpouI 90 INV "a f"'
Carolina has in congress, and is about
as we'll fitted to fill this new position
as any of the rest of the aspirants.
But with it all it is a fact that a Fed
eral judgeship is about as juicy a
plum as Federal politics affords, the
supreme bench coming first, the cir
cult bench second and the district
bench next. Few lawyers have n
higher ambition along this line. The
congressional delegation knew very
we'll that if the thing had been left
open only for a week or two, there
would have been a flood of applicants
for the position. and the fight they
would have made would have endan-
gered the political structure Of the
whole Western district. The giving Of
the plum to Mr.. johnson takes care
of thai gentleman for life, and con-
fines the resulting row mainly to those
who are after his seat in congress.

pect: some would say nice things about
a big real estate deal; some would
brag about a newly launched life in
surance company, and some would ex-
plot the virtues of a particular kind
Of liver pill and the like; but we VEN
find many editors Of experience and
capacity who will fill their papers
with any old thing that may be sub
mitted by anybody without first hav-
ing assured themselves as to exactly
what they are doing. Now, Of course,
such stuff as might be handed In by
DR.. Hayne to the Columbia papers.
might have a certain news value II for
no other reason, because of his official
position as chairman Of the state
board of health; but we venture that
he has gotten very little stuff into
either of these papers that they would
have assumed editorial responsibility
for without his name attached. And
if the doctor will think a bit over his
allegation Of l~aziness, we will ask him
this: Does he think it Is an editors
business to sit down and act as amen
uensis for him? He Is supposed to
know what he wants, and surely the
reporter is not expected to think with
the doctors mind. If the doctor has
something he wants to say In the
shape of an interview, instead OF
through a signed article, which Is the
honest way, now does he expect to get
it in shape unless he shapes it up
himself? But II the doctor will look
a little deeper into the thing he Will
probably find that he has a very su-
perficial view Of the function OF a
newspaper or the manner In which a
we'll edited newspaper Is run. He
might find some newspapers that are
willing to give publicity to any old
thing hat might be handed to them,
regardless Of the fact that the same
matter may have been handled time
and again before, and regardless OF
its timeliness or fitness in the edi-
tors estimation: but we do not think
he will find a great many who put so
light an estimate on their duty and re-
sponsibility.

THE Demand for Character Teach
ing in the Schools" was the subject Of
an address delivered to the teachers
by w. w. Lewis, Esq, Of Yorkville.
The speaker said that every teacher
should remember that his or her work
involved a duty to the state and the
patron as we'll as the child. A school
teachers work involved not only the
principle Of merely exacting from the
pupil a clear understanding Of the
studies but the principle Of inspiring
each student with the duty which each
man owes to his fellow, in pursuing his
own particular course In life.
The highest aim in life, said the
speaker, Is not to acquire wealth or
prestige, but to aid humanity. The
boys who wished to adopt the calling
Of a lawyer, doctor or that Of any 9TH
er profession, should be impressed by
his teacher with the fact that he Is to
enter that particular profession with
the idea Of giving benefit to suffering
humanity. The duty Of the doctor Is
to go about relieving the physical ills,
the highest principle Of the legal pro-
fession Is to promote justice between
man and man.. The teachers profess
sion. he said, ranks next to that Of a
minister and by the ipstilling Of char
acter teaching along with the instruc-
tion in various branches Of study,
teachers are doing their full duty to
the state as well as the parent and
child.
Following MI. Lewis's address, ad-
journment was taken for lunch, which
was served the teachers in the hall OF
the building, The afternoon session
was taken up with discussions Of the
various branches Of the school work
by the teachers themselves.

- That Greenwood Rogers will be
electrocuted for the part he played at
Stomp Springs when the late Geo. F.
Young was foully murdered, and his
body burned almost beyond reception
now almost seems certain, says a
Laurens dispatch Of Saturday. An
order has been received at the clerk
of courts office here from the supreme
court to the effect thai Rogers Is to be
re-sentenced at the approaching term
Of court. 1t will be remembered that
Rogers was first tried for murder, the
jury finding him guilty with a recon-
mendation to mercy, ~whereupon he
was given a life sentence. Mr.. Dudly
Young, son of the late Mr.. Geo. F.
Young, afterwards swore out a war
rant against Rogers for arson. For
his he was neX tried, convicted and
sentenced to death. At this second
trial, Mr.. A. G. Hart, a young attor-
ney of Laurens. was appointed by the
court to defend Rogers. The attorney
took the position that Rogers could not
be tried for arson until he had served
his sentence for murder and that fur
thermore, he could not be tried and
convicted again for virtually the same
~offense. The presiding judge. how
ever, overruled the attorney with a
request that he carry it to the supreme
court, which he did The case was
argued by Mr.. Hart and Solicitor
Cooper a few weeks ago and the order,
which was a result Of the decision, has
been Sent here as stated above. 1t Is
probable that Rogers will be re-sen-
fenced mex week. The other two
negroes who were connected with this
terrible tragedy are now serving life
sentences in the p~enitentiary. Ac-
cording to the testimony Of one Of
these. Greenwood Rogers was the ring
leader.

For DAY

DR.. James A. Hayne, secretary Of
the state board of health, delivered an
address in Yorkville last Friday night
in compliance with a. previously ex-
tended request, on the general sub
ject Of municipal sanitation, and with
the especial object Of helping to give
additional impetus to a generally con-
templated cleanup campaign.
The audience was rather small, in
GLIDING only about twenty-five people,
but those present seemed to be very
much in earnest, and the speaker
took care to treat his subject in as
comprehensive detail as II there had
been a great houseful Of people to
hear him.
The main purpose Of the state board
Of health, he said, and Of the various
municipal boards Of health, was to
safeguard the rights Of the many
against the impositions Of the few;
to eradicate as far as possible all
sources Of disease; to arrest, restrict
and prevent contagion, and do for the
people that which they could not do
themselves in the absence of specific
responsibility, backed by intelligent
authority.
BY way Of illustrating what he
meant, DR.. Hayne said that there were
many individuals who made no hesita-
ton in the maintenance Of ~nuisances
in disregard Of the inconvenience, dis
o1.fo-+ o~l lo-oar chat rpi0hf onNrfIn
to their neighbors. Fol instance.
there were butchers, who II not look
ed after, would persist in selling un-
wholesome beef and the like, and the
bakers, If MOI kept under supervision
would become careless about the
cleanliness and quality Of their bread.
1t was so with the produce dealers,
and along down the line Of various
tradesmen, who might consider their
own immediate profit as Of more con-
Germ than the public health.
DR.. Hayne spoke at length about the
fly and the mosquito as the most pro-
life communications of disease, and
told how to get rid Of them by break
ing up their breeding places. The fly,
he said, Matched its eggs principally
in manure heaps, horse stables, barn
lots, trash piles, and the like, and the
mosquito depended upon stagnant wa
ter pools, such as are to be found In
excavations Of various kinds, i'm
properly drained bitches, empty cans,
bottles and other receptacles which
will hold water and which are care
lessly left to lie around loose.
The speaker told of cleanup cam
paigns that had been ~inaugurated and
successfully carried through in vari-
Gus towns and he felt sure that all
that was necessary for the Inaugural
ton Of such a campaign in Yorkville.
was to awaken the people to a full
realization Of its importance.
At the close Of DR.. Haynes address
a committee was chosen to ~inaugurate
a campaign for municipal cleanliness
and to arouse especial interest In the
holding Of a cleanup day on Thurs
day, April /. The committee was
composed as follows: G.. H. O'Leary,
chairman; Miss Rose Lindsay, from
ward /; Miss Carrie Cartwright, from
ward 2; Mrs. Thos. w. Speck, from
ward 8; Mrs. S. c. Ashe, from ward 4;
Mrs. W. G. White. from ward S, Mrs.
C. w. Carroll, from ward 6.
