"THE PROMINENT FARMER." "

For the benefit of the Abbeville
Press and Banner we desire to say
in Justice to the Newberry farmer,
who gave out the interview in Colum-
bia for the Record, that we have no
idea he intended it for publication,
but was just talking to the governor
and his secretary, as you say, to help
them "keep their courage up" We
do rot know who the man from New.
berry people do not like to make any
betty people do not like to make any
one feel bad. It sounded too good to
the ears of the governor and the sec.
retary however and so they gave it to
the reporter. We do not speak with
authority, but somehow, we just feel
that is the way it all happened. In
our opinion it was just intended for
the ears of the governor to make him
feel good, end with no intention OF
doing any one harm. No doubt next
time this prominent Newberry farm
er will he little more careful. Let
'em feel good awhile.-Newberry

week in his Office. We criticise no
particular man for this state of af-
fairs. The same is true all over the
state so far as we know. ... p.
The convicts of the county should
be put in one squad and one fore
man and one set of guards should
take care of them, or else, we should
give them away as Christmas pres
ent to some unsuspecting county.
The enormous expenses Of this pet
institution should be lowered, espe-
cially since the county has been re-
duced in size.
We have entirely too many magis-
trates in the county and too many
constables. One magistrate at Cal
houn Falls. one at Lowndesville, one
at Due West, and one at Abbeville
are all that are necessary. Offices
should be abolished. We need a
not to be filled by political workers
however deserving, and where these
offices have been created without suf.
ficient necessity therefor, and where
the necessity no longer exists, they
should be abolished. We need q
few legislators, who are willing to
rectify mistakes regardless OF
whether they will be reelected OF
not. In fact man should not be
sent to the legislature if he wants
the office. The public should de.
mand service of him, and nobody
should take the candidates word for
it that he is running because great
many people want him in the Office.
In other ways the expenses of the
county may be greatly reduced, and
the public may be better served by
expending the public money for the
benefit OF the public and not for per-
petuating useless Offices.
The people in the rural sections of
the county who want good roads, and
who are entitled to them, and who
will gain by having them, should get
behind the good-roads movement in
this county and ask the delegation to
be elected to do something when
they are elected.
Shall we sleep on?

THE OVATION.

We had overlooked the statement
IN the newspapers of the great ova-
ton the governor received at the
Jones school picnic. But we notice
from the Laurens paper that it was
not SUCH an ovation after all for Mr..
Manning. Only the other day we had
s letter from Laurens man in which
he says:
'T never heard more exaggerated
account of a picnic in my life. 1t was
really a very small affair and Man
ming must have been pretty hard up
for somewhere to speak, or else he
wouldn't have been making that
sparsely settled section. The crowd
was small-much smaller than what
was actually expected, and smaller
than in previous years. You saw what
they had to say about that ovation,

Grating the Linotype, and our new

The Press and Banner invites its

A BEAM AND A MOTE.

The Columbia Record is crying
because some bad papers are saying
things about Governor Manning. II
asserts that none of the Governors
friends are saying anything against
Mr.. Cooper.
How about the statement that
Cooper will receive $1,000 votes in
the State? .
How about the publication Of that
rs news item? .ht
How about the statement that
Cooper would get no votes in. the
Jones section where he was "born
and bred?" And the publication
thereof? :, ..f.
How about the attempt to make
the people believe the race is be-
tween Manning and Blease?

THE COST OF WAR.

Prices in printing supplies of all
kinds are soaring. Newspaper stock
is now selling for four cents per
pound. It formerly sold for two
and one half cents. The finer grades
of paper are much higher, and it is
impossible to get some of the colors
in any kind of paper. The average
advance is raised one hundred per
cent.
For these reasons parties are being
compelled to pay more for station.
