We deeply regret the spirit exhib-
tied by the Orangeburg papers re-
Gently, especially the Times and Dem
5ocrat. Those people are our neigh
bors and friends, and we regret that
they should have attempted to defeat
the new county wanted in the St.
Matthews section. by attempting to
.belittle Bamberg. Their remarks
have been totally free from any SEM
blance of fairness, but rather there
has been an attempt all along to dis
tort facts to the discredit Of our
county. We have no objection to
criticism, but we mustprotestagainst
such unfair treatment. Publish any
thing that is true, that's all right,
but to make unjust and untrue state
ments does not show the spirit which
should exist, especially among people
of adjoining counties. Their refer
ences to this county were entirely
gratuitous, anyway. Wewere taking
no hand in the new county fight, in
fact we rather symyathized with
Orangeburg, for she is going to lose
the best part of the county.

The Orangeburg Times and Dem
ocrat says the Herald confirms its
statement exactly in regard to the
condition of the crossing of the Edisto
river near Branchville, because
we stated that lumber was on the
ground to renew the bridges. Not
SO fast, please. The bridges were not
in the condition our friend would
have the public believe. Bamberg
county does not wait for her bridges
tobreakdown,a ,aswasthe casewith the
Orangeburg bridges, but she renews
them in time. That is the reason
new lumber was put there to rebuild
them before they got in bad fix. The
engine broke through on the Orange
burg side, and while there is no feel
mg of satisfaction to us in placing
the Times and Democrat in such an
unenviable position, it has only itself
to thank. Get your facts right next
time before you blow off your mouth
and you'll avoid making yourself so
ridiculous.

she was a frayed, spineless, shapeless

once on the sealing grounds, which in
the gulf lie between latitude 42-4S
north, work on the thin Ice must be
done quickly, and pelts must be gath
cred by many hands. -
At 1 o'clock the sealer was headed
out Of the harbor for the open sea. 1t
was a beautiful day, but the waters
were jammed with ice. 1t was fight
from the start, three miles Of steady
bucking, crunching, grinding, full stop;
then a rush full speed ahead, crash;
another ships length gained. ),
1t was 8 o'clock when the Leopard
steamed into open water. AS she
rounded tn" cape the heavens, which
all afternoon had been Of clearest blue
and after sunset studded with stars,
suddenly became black. The wind be-
gan to moan from the southeast, and
inside of fifteen minutes half gale,
accompanied by binding snow, was
assailing the coast bitterly. =.
Captain Bartlett's problem was this:
He had to take his boat down the coast
until Cape Race had been cleared,
when he could head northwest, taking
bis vessel past Cape Breton and st.
Pierre Miquelon, finally entering the
gulf. He held the Leopard about elev-
en- miles offshore. He would have
given a great deal had he dared to take
his vessel still farther out to sea, BE-
cause the wind, which had been hold
ing from the southeast, had hauled
dead east and was thus blowing direct:
" on shore and with full hurricane
force by this time-9 O'Clock. Outside
the slob ice through which the ship
was sailing the gale was lashing the
ocean into fury. .
Hour after hour passed. 1t was the
blackest night Captain Bartlett ever
knew. Fifty fathoms ahead there was
nothing to see-nothing but a black
void against which the bullet rush OF
snow produced the vaguest impress
sion Of movement. Outside the line OF
slob ice the terrific seas could be heard
battling among themselves In elemental
riot. Even the weighted waters
through which the Leopard plowed her
way rose out of the dark In many q
long swell, lifting the vessel toward
heavens that could not be seen, drop
ping her into depths from which there
seemed no escape. But up and out OF
them steamed the Leopard, trembling
and going on and on into the gloom.
Midnight came and passed. Captain
Bartlett had long known that the yes
sci was making in all the time on that
dreaded tangent line, but now the fact
began to thrill through the ship like q
clammy breeze. The master was not
really worried, because he thought that
| the leeward drift would not set al
naught the Roadway down the coast

that Cape Race bell. So did every one
The sealers huddled in whispering
groups on the deck, looking inQuiringly
at an officer or sailor as he hurried
past, but venturing no questions.
Where was that bell? It was time
that the notes began to drift to them
through the secondary lapses into 81
lence which sometimes characterize
high winds. Captain Bartlett and his
mate, William Wilcox, were on the
bridge and every minute that passed

OUR ORANdEBURd FRIENDS.

= = OUR OkANOEbUku FklENDS.
The Orangeburg Patriot wants the
Herald editor to keep still while he is
putting a quietus on the new county
promoters of St. Matthews. Although
our friends across the Edisto have
not dealt fairly In their references to
Bamberg county, we are perfectly
willing to keep quiet if they will let
us alone. But they must expect to
get the shortcomings Of Orangeburg
county exposed when they hit Barn-
berg.
Orangeburg is a fine county, but it
is not doing near as well as it should
in the.matter of taxation. Taxes are
too high there for the amount of tax
able property. If Bamberg had such
a rich territory, we'd hardly have a
one mill levy. If the dispensary is
kept here, next year we will have no
county levy at all anyway, but poor
Orangeburg cannot say as much. We
understand that county isnow in debt,
while Bamberg has a surplus Of near
" $4,000. The Patriot says this sur
plus would not much more than pay
for good breakfast for their coun-
ty chain gangs, and we guess this is
true, for it certainly seems that the
finances over there are not in as good
shape as they might be. Possibly ex-
travagance and bad management is
the reason why Orangeburg makes
such a poor financial showing as COM
pared with Bamberg.
But the Patriot might as we'll bow
to the inevitable. The people of St.
Matthews are entitled to new coun-
ty, and they going to get it no doubt.
The wonder is that this county has
not been created long ago. So let
them go in peace and good will. All
the rawlings of you Orangeburg
newspaper men will amount to moth
ing, and if the new county is as well
managed as Bamberg, the taxpayers
will pay less than in Orangeburg.

Bit there was dubious ring to these

clouds. From the bridge but a few
feet of water could be seen over the

ed on. Every one felt as man must
feel who walks blindfolded over an
acre strewn with pitfalls. Aside from
the occasional call of the lookouts there
was absolute silence. Captain Bartlett
looked at his watch. One-thirty o'clock.
And then before he could replace the
timepiece it came-a loud. rending
grinding crash and then lifting and
uuivering which told the master that
the swell had lifted the vessel clear Of
the hidden reef.
"All hands on deck! Loose the top
sailr' These two commands hurtled
from the bridge in rapid succession,
while as the chief officer headed the
craft dead for shore the signal full
speed ahead sounded down in the en-
CINE room. The sealer bounded for.
ward ten yards. Then a crash and
then another. A sinister swell lifted
her high and then let her down. An
other one lifted her and dropped her
on the stony fangs' below. Still anoth'
er swell raised the vessel, and this
time she fell back on her starboard
beam.
There was little excitement, accord.
ing to Captain Bartlett. The men just
clung to whatever was handy and
waited for orders. The launching OF
boats in that pastelike ice which
smothered the waters was out Of the
question, and 80 the captain ordered
the sealers to take their pokers and
"prizes' and spear planks and make
a bridge. But bridge to where? The
darkness was suffocating, so to speak
| The men seemed shut in narrow vac.

There came a pause in the wind, a
sudden lift in the storm, and Captain
Bartlett amidships saw through the
gloom the outlines Of wreck, grim
and ghostlike, dead ahead, not fifty
yards away. He looked again and the1
recognized the wreck Of the steamship
