TlLLMAN'S OLD ROLE.

The senior Senator's manifesto failed
to manifest anything great, new or sig
nifcant. There is nothing great in it for
it lacks anything helpful or beneficial to
his State or people; there is nothing new
for it shows Tillman in characteristic
attitude; and it is significant only that it
signifies that the passion Of the people
will be appealed to rather than calm
opinion and reason; the prejudice rather
than the pride will be famed, and the at
tempt to arrange and array friend against
friend, brother against brother is being
and will be made by the Senator who
knows no higher law than that OF the
political dabbler who assassinates con-
science to appease appetite.
Will our people consent? We hope,
we believe, we feel sure they will not.

HOW'S THIS

Let every one interested talk Bamberg.
There are several real handsome resi-.

bank, making two such institutions here;
electric light plant system of newest type;
proposed trolley line to Ehrhardt and
surrounding country; new business
houses, and new inhabitants moving here,
and the steady demand for houses. How's
all this for signs of prosperity? We have
a chance to grow and increase in every

THAT DEPOT MATTER.

The editor of The Herald is in receipt
of a personal letter from Maj. Jno. H.
Earle, a member Of the railroad commits
sion. in reference to our editorial last
week as to a new freight depot here.
Mai. Earle says: II think you have
possibly unintentionally done me an in
Jury in your editorial of recent date" He
goes on to remind US of his having been
in Bamberg on the 4th day of January in
regard to this same depot matter, and of
having talked with US on the street con-
cerning the depot and also as to short
train from Augusta to Bamberg. He is
correct. We saw him here and discussed
these matters with him,land yet we can
not see where this does any good. 1t is
now April 1st, and yet three months ago
the commission had this matter in hand,
and nothing has been done up to this
writing. Maj. Earle also says that he has
seen Superintendent Heether personally
several times since his visit here concern
ing this depot, and he can assure US that
.sthe commission has.the matter up and
are pushing it." Well, if they don't push
it little faster we'll all be old and gray
headed before We get the new depot
It is not our desire to pose as a fault
finder and critic of the railroad commits.
sion, for we know the body is often un-
Justly criticised, but We must say that, to
take the statement of one of the board,
it shows most dilatory state of affairs.
The depot was burned on the night of
October 18th, and his report on the stu
alton here was filed January 4th, 1906.
The superintendent of the railroad was
written to on January 5th, and yet three
months later no depot is in sight. That's
postponing 'em some.
Mai. Earle also states: "When you
realize that we have possibly one hun
dred complaints concerning depots over
the State, you will understand why we
cannot have them all built at once" We
must confess that we cannot understand
that statement, nor can we understand
also why it should take six months to
get ready to build new depot.
"A great deal has been said in times
mast as to the uselessness of the railroad
commission. Bamberg's citizens are now
prepared to give ample testimony along
this line, for, mind you, the commission

Railroad Commission Replies.

The last mail before we went to press
brought US the following letter from the
Railroad Commission. Read Commits
siouer Earle's letter and compare it with
this one. No comment is necessary:
Columbia, S. c., March 3Oth, 1906.
Mr.. A. w. Knight, Bamberg, s. G..
Dear Sir:
Referring to your editorial of the 29th
of March addressed to the Railroad Com
mission of South Carolina, under mark
ed cover:
This matter has never been taken up
officially with the Board. Commissioner
Earle brought the matter to the attention
of the Board, and they Immediately COM
municated with Superintendent Heether,
asking him when said depot would be
rebuilt. Our Commissioner Caughman
made personal inspection of the situa-
alton at Bamberg. At that time he
found that there was disagreement be.
tween the Superintendent and the citi.
zens as to the location of this depot.
They (the Commission) were afterwards
unoflcially informed that this disagree,
ment had been settled, and that the depot
would be rebuilt.
We desire to state emphatically, that
the Commission have not neglected their
interests in the Bamberg situation, and
our correspondence is witness to that
effect. We have had so many persistent
petitions for depots that require our per-
sonal investigation, so much of our time
has been taken up with the freight con.
gestion in many parts of the State. that
for the time, we may have lost sight of
Bamberg; still we had no official COM
munication from your citizena. We will
now see after the wants of your citizens
and have attention given the same.
In justice to the Board, we think you
should give this communication the same
prominence given your editorial.
By order of the Board.
J. H. WHARTON,
Chairman.

From Commissioner Earle.

Columbia, S. c., March Goth, 1905.
Mr.. A. W. Knight, Bamberg, S. c.
Dear Mr.. Knight
Think you have possibly unintention-
ally done me an injury in your editorial
of recent date as to the freight depot at
Bamberg.
On January 4th, 1905, met you on the
street in Bamberg and talked with you
concerning the depot and also concerning
short train to Augusta. If any one
should take the trouble they could easily
find my report on both matters on file in
the Office of the R. R. Commission (No.
80, date 1.406). On this report Superin-
tendent Heether was Immediately written
Il 5-06) and acknowledged receipt of our
communication on 1905 explaining why
the short train could not be extended etc.
have seen Superintendent Heether per-
sonally several times since concerning
this depot, and I can assure you that this
Commission has the matter up and are
pushing it. When you realize that We
have possibly one hundred complaints
concerning depots over the State, you
will understand why We cannot have
them all built at once. have inspected
the situation at Bamberg, understand it
thoroughly, and I think our Board un-
derstands conditions there as well as do.
Mr.. Caughman has also visited Bamberg
concerning this depot. Col. Wharton has
not done so as he was called to another
place. Yours very truly,
JNo. 81. EARLE,
Commissioner.
