And this reminds me that happened
to see an almost near collision on one
of these narrow streets some time ago
between wagon and an automobile
a real automobile as they say-but il
so happened tat botl were going
rather slow and the tongue of the Wag
On just missed by a few inches going
through the bowels of the youthful
auto chauefer Well, that reminds me
of another thing 1 heard some time
ago, and that is that the city council
was thinking about passing some sort
of vehicle ordinance which would re-
quire all vehicles to keep to the right.
If in this particular case that rule
Lad been adhered to there would noG
have been any danger. But one of the
vehicles was on the right side of the
street and tne otter was on the lett,
and going in opposite directions. What
is needed is a regulation in this city
that will require all vehicles to keep
to the right and not to stop their We
hicles except when on the right side
Of tie street in the direction they arc
headed Yes, know some one will be
narrow for any such regulation, but
to my mind-that is, taking it for
granted that 1 have any mind, which
may be rank presumption-but any
way, it seems to me there is nothing
in such objection, but that fact onlE
makes it tie more imperative for some
such regulation. And tIlen the ordi-
! nance which forbids the parking or
the standing of vehicles and automo-
biles On certain streets and squares
should be more rigidly enforced Any
one who mas observed at all will know
that many times on crowded Satur-
days particularly, when our friends
from the country are -ere, the auto
pleasure drivers take great pleasure
in driving around through the narrow
steets and stopping their cars in
them. Well. I reckon it is none ot
my business, and what + nave here
written is simply for the general wei
fare and of no sort of personal inter-
est to me- And to show you that
Lave tried to be careful of what
say 1 have just been reading a beau
tiful little sentiment on that subject,
and for the benefit of us all I am going
to quote the beautiful lines and with
them I an going to close:

CLEANUP WEK.

The city council and the Civic assc-
citation Lave designated next week as
cleanup week for the city, and the
council has stated on what days the
cart would call in the various wards.
This is very important matter and
should not be necessary for the coun-
Gil or any one else to call attention
to it, There should be enough civic
pride in every citizen to cause Tim to
keep his premises clean, and if there
is not purely selfish spirit should
cause each individual to keep his prem
ises clean on account of the value of
such action as a health preserver. We
could nave a clean city by little Co
operation on the part of all tie citi-
zens of the community.

News, of Newberry, and the Yorkville
Enquirer are constantly giving him. II
he did not have some newspaper bark
ing at MIN life would be entirely too
sweet and mfortable.-Sumter Her
aid.
Tie foregoing is clipped from the
Pee Dee Advocate, under tie heading
''Blease Papers Are After Him" We
had failed to notice it in the Sumter
Herald, and We were just a little sur
prised that the Pee Dee Advocate, for
which we had some little respect,
should print such thing, without
pointing out its absurdity, instead Of
putting itself on level with the SUM-
ter Herald. If any of the readers OF
the Enquirer have detected any effort
to poke Governor Manning, it would
be interesting to have them at least
point out the dates of the issue Of the
paper in which the "pokings" appeared.
However, about the best and surest
way We can think of by which these
contemporaries can relieve themselves
of grave suspicion of uncalled for men
dacity, is to get Governor Manning
himself to put tie stamp of approVa!
on the Heralds paragraph, and COM
prehensive reason therefor-Yorkville
Enquirer.
The Herald and News agrees entire
~ With the Enquirer. We have had 10
"pokes" at Gov. Manning. To be sure,
as We have before remarked, we Lave
not agreed with Gov. Manning in al
that he has done, and we nave not re-
Trained from saying so, but we have
always done it in a dignifed and re-
spectful manner. AS We said once be-
fore, it would be we'll sometimes to
have man delivered from his friends.
We would like to see a comprehensive
reason for some of the things said by
the Sumter Herald, but that would be
impossible.

Gov. Manning has appointed a SUI
perintendent of the State Hospital for
the Insane from Maryland. He is to
take charge on the 10th of May. In
order to receive commission from tie
governor for any position some one
has raised tie question that the per-
son must be a citizen Of the State and
a qualified elector. The appointee CT
Gov. Manning is citizen of another
State. 1t seems to US that We have
some sort of faint recollection Of a
considerable noise being made about a
speech made by a governor of South
Carolina at a certain Richmond meet
ing about the constitution and what
to do with it when it stood in tle
way of what he wanted to do. o.
course, things have changed now and
it will be entirely all right to pay no
attention to the constitution when it
stands in the way of what is desired
to be done.
This question OF being an elector
in order to receive a commission from
the governor for a position came up
some years ago On the appointment of a
stenographer of on of the circuits
of this State The judge, who desired
to make the appointment, and the b1er
Gov. Hayward, took the position that
the appointment could not be made be-
cause the party was not an electoc,
being under twenty years Of age,
though entirely competent otherwise
to fill the position.
1t does seem to us that@there might
be found in South Carolina some ply
sician VINO is competent to fill this po-
sition and who has the patriotism to
take it. Of course, it should be re-
moved from politics and We suppose it
will now be removed
In the interest OF the taxpayers Of
the State, We hope something will IN
tervene to prevent the expenditure Of
half million dollars on the present
buildings in Columbia, as recommend
ed by DR.. Herring, Gov. Manning's ex-
pert. The State has already spent a
quarter million at State Park, and ii
any money is to be spent it should be
on that development, so that the in
stitution might be speedily removed
to the country.

No doubt every one has seen that
doggerel that was going the sounds Of
the press some time ago about tie man
who had few nails and an old tin
can and he put them together and
called it a Ford, and the - thing
ran, or words to that effect. never
could quote poetry or anything else.
But it ran something like that. Well
Talking 1t Over in tie Augusta
C2ronicle had pretty good thing on
the Ford which 1 feel sure will be
appreciated by at least some of Que
people, and 1 think it is pretty clever
and l am going to quote it for their
benft:
The meanest jab at Ford automo-
biles, discarded for months, is on dit

that this is such terrible jab. There

county of Newberry.

1t is stated that the State board OF
education had hopeless deadlock on
the Newberry county superintendent
of education, and when it was impas-
sible to decide they unanimously elect
ed Prof. Derrick. Why not submit the
matter to the people of Newberry
county and let the people decide Some
times We have thought that the peo-
pie exercised very bad judgment, but
We have always bowed gracefully to
their will, and under our form OF gov
ernment the people have a right to
say w2o they want to fill the Variols
positions. But some one will say that
would put the Office in politics. Well,
under the laws the people will have
a right to decide who they want two
years from now, and why not let them
have chance now. Of course, there
was no politics in the State board hav-
ing deadlock.

We notice that one of the papers
states that Prof Derrick was elected
superintendent of education of New
berry county to succeed &c. D. Brown,
deceased" Now that is too bad and
that news gatherer should be ashamed
of himself. MIR Brown is not deceased,
but is promoted to much better job.

FRIDAY, APRIL 9, 1915.

The State board of education at its
meeting in Columbia on Tuesday
elected Prof. S. J. Derrick, of New
berry college, county superintendent ci
education to succeed Mr.. C. D. Brown
and at TIE same meeting elected him
member of the county board OF edu-
cation for Newberry county. He is
eminently qualified to fill both posi-
tions with credit to himself and the

That reminds me of something
have been wanting to say for long
time, but somehow l just could not
work it in to suit me. 1t is this:
notice at several of the street cross
ings a sign which reads something
like this: Speed limit four miles
t hour" Now, was just wondering &
if that was joke, or if council really
meant what it said when the sign was
promulgated. There is not one car il
forty tnat pays any attention worth
speaking about to the sign. 1t may
Lave been put up as street ornament
like some of these old-fashion country
style signs Of the merchants which
stretch their arms-or their beauty
to the breeze across the streets No
modern or live and progressive and
up-to-date city has any such signs
across the sidewalks But to HE back
to the subject, provided I had one, ard
it is tbs: If the city is going to have
rule to slow down at crossings it
should be enforced or the signs should
be taken down as cumbering the air,
and certainly they are not beauty
spots.
The city has been moderately free
from automobile accidents and that
may lull us into an innocuous deus
suetude, or something like that. what
ever it is. But some of these days We
are going to Lave terrible accident
and then the public conscience will be
aroused, and let me tell you, it would
be little better to take small dose
of prevention than whole barrel of
cure. I am not knocking or kicking
but just stating a plain and unvarn-
is1ed truth.
