CITY of Washington.

Washington, the capital of the
United States, was founded 1875 years
ago today, December 20, 1890. In
the early days of the republic con-
gress was engaged in a long and bit
ter wrangle to decide the location of
the capital, and for a time the con-
troversy threatened to wreck the in
fant government. At'lenth an agree
ment was reached, and a site favored
by George Washington, on the banks
of the Potomac, was selected. In
realizing the dream of Washington
much vexation was experienced be-
cause of the attitude Of the owners
of the land, most of whom were
Scotch, and had inherited the abili-
ty to drive a hard bargain. Most
stubborn of all was David Burns, a
tobacco planter and justice of the
peace, who insisted that he did not
want capital in his front yard.
Washington argued with him for
days, and Burns at last capitulated,
but he exacted a good price, and also
stipulated that his cottage should not
be disturbed. This little edifce
stood till few years ago.

With reluctance The Herald feels
compelled to discontinue exchanging
with a good many of the newspapers
of the State. The Herald is endeav-
oring to get through the period of
high prices without advancing its
subscription price. In order to do
this, every possible expense must be
pared down. 1t is pleasure to read
the exchanges. We are sorry that
our time does not permit us to read
every one\ of them carefully. The
fact that we cannot continue to ex-
change with all of them does not
mean that we do not enjoy their
visits, but we just can't afford it,
that's. ALL High prices are playing
havoc with newspapers, and we hope
that the time will soon come around
again when we can afford the expense
of sending every paper in the State
The Herald. In the mean time, we
shall have to content ourselves with
only getting those around us.

Warding Off Trouble.

He had reformed and was full of
zeal in the cause of temperance. He
was holding lecture in work

dience might interrupt he hired a
former prizeighter to- preserve or

contrasted home life With drunken

What do we want to ease our bur-

The many Bamberg readers of the
Columbia State learned with genuine
regret of the death of Robert E.
Gonzales, whose bright paragraphs
adorned the editorial page of the
State every day until he went to the
border with the South Carolina
national guard. Mr.. Gonzales was,
without a doubt, a gifted writer, and
was considered by many as being the
leading paragrapher in the country.

those objects in general terms. But
stated in general terms, they seen
the same on both sides. Never ye1
have the authoritative spokesmen o1
either side avowed the precise OBJ
jects which would, if attained, satisfy
them and their people that the wal

been left to conjecture what definite
results, what actual exchange Of
guarantees, what political or terri
torial changes or readjustments
what stage of military success even
would bring the war to an end.
1T may be that peace is nearer
than we know; that the terms which
the belligerents on the one side and
on the other would deem it necessary
to insist upon are not so irreconcila-
BILE as some have feared; that an in
