Now is your opportunity. There is
no time when the system is so much in
need of good medicine, like Hoods

susceptible to the benefits to be de-

TURNED EN- Down.
Aldermen Take No Action in Regard
to the Haynes CIausen Fran
chise Ordinance.
NO BONDS HAD BEEN FILED
For This Reason the Council Refused to
Give the Ordinance the Second
Reading Monday Night.

Messrs. Patrick Haynes and Gustav
C1ausen, the two Chicago men who
have been spending their money in
Kenosha for the past few weeks with
the hope of securing franchise for an
electric railway through Kenosha,
were beautifully turned down by the
Mayor and a majority of the City
Council at their meeting Monday
evening and the Council refused to al
low any action to be taken on the fran
chise or to allow the promoters to say
anything in their own defence.
The matter of the ordinance did not
come up until late in the evening, and
as soon as it was seen that the ordi-
nance was the next order of business
an effort to adjourn was made, but it
was lost after call for the ayes and
nays. Aid. Curtis then urged that the
ordinance be given its second reading,
but it was evident that there some
people on the Council who were not
ready to pass the ordinance and the
suggestion to have it read for the last
time was not well received. 1t was
urged against the ordinance that the
promoters had not filed any bond to
cover the cost of the rebate to the peo-
pie on Main and Market streets, and
for this reason, according to resolu-
tion from the last meeting, the ordi-
nance could not come before the
Council. But it was evident that there
were stronger reasons than this one
among the opponents to the franchise,
for during the evening a report was
circulated that the Chicago men had
been making friends with the Alder
men and certain ones who had been
counted on to vote against the ordi-
nance had announced themselves in
favor of the franchise. Aid. Schend
urged that the ordinance take the regu-
lar course and receive its second read
ing, but he was how1ed down in the
cries made by the opposition to adj
iourn. Schend asked that C1ausen be
allowed to speak in regard to the bond
business and the Chicago man strobe
from the seats of the spectators toward
the sacred railing of the Council
chamber. 1t was to no use, the Oppo-
sition were not in mood to waste
time with arguing and the motion to
adjourn was put and carried before the
promoter could open his mouth.
1t is probable that the action of the
| Council will mark the death of the
Haynes-C1ausen ordinance and there
now remains little hope of its passage.
| The active opposition of the Mayor to
the franchise has caused quite a num-
Der of the Aldermen to rally to his
support, and even in the event of the
passage of the ordinance there could be
little hope of its becoming a law over
the veto of the Mayor.
Mr.. C1ausen was seen after the
meeting of the Council, but he seemed
to be Disguised with the turn the af-
fair had taken and had nothing to say
for publication.

Probate BrunSOn Missing.

Probate Judge Henry H. Brunson, OF
Orangeburg, left that town in myS-
terious manner on Sunday morning, the
25th of March. For several days after
his departure vague rumors were atioat
as to the cause of his leaving, and finally
Clerk of Court Salley wrote the governor
of the affair. Governor McSwecney I'M
mediatclv wired him to take charge OF
the office and make an immediate nves-
tiration of it's affairs. Mr. Brunson's
bondSmen employed attorneys, and their
investigation of his ACCOUNTS show short
age of $1,000, but the investigation as yet
is only partial.
Mr.. Brunson left town on the Coast
Line train going toward Augusta, but 1t
is said a letter has since been received
from him from another direction, IN
which he said he would probably never
return to Orangeburg, and his family
know little if anything of his present
whereabouts.
Mr.. Brunson was one of the brightest
Young lawyers at the Orangeburg bar,
and his future looked bright. The news
of his flight and shortage came as great
surprise to all who knew him. 1t is said
that his generosity caused his downfall,
he not being able to say no to any call Tor
financial assistance, and that some or the
money is loaned to parties IN Orange
burg, but it is not known definitely to
whom.
His bond is a strong one, sufficient to
easily pay the shortage without embar-
RAISING any of the bOndsmen.

Mr.. Weekly Vindicated.

For some time there has been some frlc'
ton over the position of magistrate at
Ulmer, and, although Mr.. N. W. Weekly
had been nominated for the position,
eroundless charges were made against
him, and he was not allowed to take
charge of the Office. Governor McSweeney
has disposed of the matter by appointing
Mr.. Weekly, and, from the facts before
US, we think he did exactly right. We
clip the following from The State OF last
Friday, which shows the governors posi-
ton:
yesterday Governor McSweeney set
tied the matter that worried his predeces'
sor and has worried him no little. He ap'
pointed N. W. Weekly magistrate at Ul'
mer. ~ wv
I'm the last primary election N: w
Weekly cot the nomination over the in
cumbent, S. E. Ulmer, for the position
Ulmer's term had not expired and it was
determined that he should hold on until
his term did expire-this month. In the
meantime Weekly was appointed by Gov
ernor Ellerbe, who discovered this condl
tion and later revoked the commission
After Governor McSweeney came into
office Ulmer was elected intendant and II
was held that he thereby vacated the Office
of magistrate; then he was reappolnted
Sometime ago charges were preferred
before Magistrate Ulmer against Weekly
He was charged with stealing mule
Then the Barnwell delegation suggested
that the governor suspend the appoint
ment until these charges be disposed OF
Magistrate Ulmcr meanwhile holding
over until the appointment of his success,
sor. The prosecution was pushed and
Magistrate Ray heard the case. He dis
missed it.
"Then the governor asked the delega
tion for Recommendation in the matter
The delegation took the view that 1t was
best to let the matter stand in statu quo
until the next primary.
I'm the meantime Solicitor Townsend
wrote the governor that there are NJ
charges in his hands against Mr.. Weekly
and that Magistrate Ray had dismissed
the case already brought in his court; that
the prosecution was not brought by th'
man who is alleged to have lost the mule
but by Mr.. Brant. He also made
some other statements as to the case II
his letter which will not be made public
for the present.
"Governor McSweeney yesterday said
In view of the fact that this charge ha:
been dismissed, I think that Weekly, a:
the regular primary nominee, should re
ceive the place for which he was named
by the people, and I have therefore ap
| pointed him."

In a conversation last Monday with
Supervisor Kearse as to the bad condition
of the Cannon's bridge road, he said that
while the chain gang had put in six weeks
work on this thoroughfare last summer,
it would be impossible to put the road in
tirst-class condition without bridging at
least two of the lahes, and the county
could not now afford this expense. He
also stated that he had ordered the over
seer to have the road worked, and hoped
some work would be done soon. The Su-
pervisor is trying to work all the roads
in the county, and naturally can work
only the worst places in order to get
around He is trying to distribute the
work equally, and is badly hampered by
the smallness of the chain gang force
In this connection it is well to say that
we can't have good roads unless we pay
for them, and Bamberg ought to have a
property road tax and abolish the present
"overseer" system. Until this is done
while there maybe great improvement in
our highways, We will not have first,
class thoroughfares.

PLAY Ball.

q A well attended meeting was held at
the town hall last Monday evening to
devise ways and means to give Bamberg
a tirst-class base ball team and park this
year, G. Moye Dickinson was called to
the chair, and an organization was effect
ed by the election of Col. Jno. F. Folk as
manager of the team; w. P. Riley, cap
tain and G. Moye Dickinson, secretary
and treasurer.
Subscriptions were called for, and $6S
was quickly subscribed by those present.
G. Move Dickinson, E. L. Price, and w.
D. Rhoad were appointed as finance
committee, and these gentlemen will call
on our citizens for subscriptions to the
team.
1t is purposed to use the new race track
as base ball park, and the grounds will
be fenced and a grand stand erected. 1t
goes without saying that we have fine
material for a team here, and the gentle
men in charge propose to have tlrst-class
ball played here this season. TO this end
they ask the financial aid of all our
citizens.
