RECORD moved that in case of with
drawal the third highest candidate
be allo ed to enter the second race
if he so desired. In its wisdom the
committee differed with us and the
motion was lost. Now it comes to
pass that State Chairman Willie
Jones, the highest authority on the
subject, has ruled that in the clrcun :
stances above cited the third highest
candidate is entitled 20 enter the
second race, which is the point we
contended for and entirely justitie>
our position.
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1904-09-08
Our Position Justified.

We have always maintained and
still contend that when two candl-
dates, fall short of a majority vote
and are placed in the second pri-
mary, if one withdraws then the
next highest man should be allowed
to make the second race. TO declare
the third man Ineligible means
practically declaring the election of
a candidate when he has actually
failed to receive majority of the
votes cast. To our mind this is not
in accord with the essence of Demo-
cracy whose shibboleth is, "equal
rights to all and special privileges to
none"
The question referred to arose at
the last meeting of the executive
committee and the editor Of The
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1904-09-08

of profit above the cost Of manufact
ure. The passage of this measure
would be a direct benefit in dollars
and cents to every bread winner IN
the United States.
The free delivery of mail to every
rural settlement brings the co untry
people in direct touch with the pep
pie of the towns and cities, thereby
enhancing the value Of country
real estate and offering better
educational advantages to both par
ent and child. Closer association
means the harmonizing of ideas
| which will rebound to the benefit OF
town and county alike.
1t Is measures, Mr. Editor, as vel
as men that should influence us ii
the selection of our congressman
| next Tuesday, and am sure that Mr.
Ellcrbe's platform will appeal to
those who have life's burden to beal
the masses. This is not written in
a partisan spirit or with :he hope OF
detracting from the merits of othel
candidates for the office; the Demo
cratic principles embodied in Mr.
Ellerbe's platform appeal to me as
citizen and voter who has the welfare
of his country at heart and l feel i
my duty to present them to to tn
voters Of Williamsburg county,

An Unfortunate Blunder.

However unintentional the egreg-
ious blunder whereby the county
executive committee was misled into
declaring the election Of Mr. Epps
over Mr. Cooper as county super'n-
tendent of education, when, as a
matter of fact, our corrected tabular
statement shows that the latter. re-
ceived majority of sixty eight votes,
it brings home to us in a forclble
manner the lax methods that are per-
united in the conduct of our primary
elections, and We sincerely hope that
the lesson taught in this instance
will be productive of good in future,
causing the adoption of measures
looking to better and more business
like system of tabulating and sum-
ming up the election returns so as to
preclude the possibility of repeating
this unfortunate error.
In tabulating the vote two tally
sheets should be kept, oneof which
would be a check to the other, and
the total vote of every candidate
could beverifed by comparison. 1t
is a tedious and thankless task to
keep these taIly-sheets, and we think
that those assigned to the work ought
to receive some remuneration for their
services.
While on this subject We NAV be
pardoned for saying that the rules
governing the primary ought to be
more-rigidly enforced. 1t is plainly
provided that each voter be required
to swear that hei is eligible and that
he has not previously voted, yet we
know that at some precincts III the
recent primary this provision was
disregarded. There are reports of
other irregularities, which if allowed
to pass UNDECIDED, will tend to dis
rupt the solid phalanx of the party.
In "a friendly contest between
white men of the same political
faith the purity of the ballot should
be jealously safe-guarded and the
utmost care exercised to give every
candidate credit for every vote he re-
ceiyes at the polls.

date Of his leaving the church and
the city. Mr.. Jacobsen is now in Lam
singburg N. ", and occasionally visits
the church. He was succeeded by
Rev. ]. V. Steenstrup, who remained
here for nearly two years, leaving in
June 1900. During his pastorate the
church prospcred and a good per
centagc Of the debt was paid off,
the membership also increased consid-
erably. He isnow in Denmark. Mr..
Steenstrup was Immediately succeeded
by Rev. Johannes +. Christensen,
who is the present. pastor.
During the four years that Mr..
Christensen has been here, a wonder
full growth in every direction has tax
en- place. The amount Of the debt on
the church is rapidly diminishing, in
about inverse ratio to the growth OF
the congregation in other respects.
The membership of the church is now
10 and it is still growing, more rap
idly then ever.
There are about ESQ scholars in
the Sunday-school, and the figures
from all the other departments of the
church, including a thrifty and En-
thuslastlc Ladies' Aid and Young

ment that the church is now on a firm

than ever before, with every promise
of even more rapid growth in the
future.
