Those "Yes" Ballots.

AS an act of justice to Mr.. Olin
NJ. Dantzler. County Supervisor, we
publish card from him in which he
says: 81 desire to state most posi-
lively and emphatically that all tick
cts sent out by me assupervisor were
blank---only the questions being
printed" In justice to The Times
and Democrat We will state that
our authority for stating that Mr..
Dantzler, as supervisor, sent out
the yes ballots came from John
S. Bowman, Esq, Chairman of the
Board of County and State Election
Commissioners, who received the
ballots from Mr.. Dantzler and sent
them out with the boxes as he is re-
quired to do by law. We had
heard the matter talked about
on the streets but before writing
anything about it we went to Mr..
Bowman and asked him about
it. He informed us that Supervisor
Dantzler furnished him two pack
ages of ballots to be sent out with the
boxes and that the ballots in one
package had the word eyes" printed
on them in answer to the different
questions, and the ballots in the
other package had the answer to the
questions left blank. 1t will thus be
seen that if an injustice has been
done Mr.. Dantzler The Times and
Democrat is not responsible for it.

An Appreciated Compliment.

Brother Knight, editor of the
Bamberg Herald, in a recent issue
of his excellant paper pays The
Times ahd Democrat this appreciated
compliment in making a correction:
Brother Sims, of the Orangeburg
Times and Democrat, is right in say
ing his paper was the first weekly
in the State to install a linotype ma
chine. We had him confused with
the seni-weeklies when we wrote
the article, and for the time be-
ing had his paper down in
the semiweekly class. The Times
and Democrat no doubt has the best
newspaper outfit of any weekly in
the State. They have no job outfit.
But, really, Brother Sims prints
more matter in his weekly than
many of the semi-weeklies. For
several months he has been issuing
a seven-column twelve-page paper. !"
In this connection we take pleas
ure in saying that Brother Knight
publishes one of the neatest, and
brightest papers in the State and is
fully competent to judge Of the
merits of q newspaper. For this
reason we appreciate the above
compliment doubly.

Revised Election Figures.

We stated two weeks ago in our
election figures that the opponents
Of Calhoun County only needed 12O
votes to defeat the new county. This
would have been correct had these
votes been deducted from the new
county vote and added 20 the opposi-
ton vote, and this is where we made
the error. AS a matter of fact, the
opposition needed 181 more votes
than they got to defeat the new
county, or 81 more votes than we
stated was necessary. This would
have made the total vote 839 instead
of $50 as we stated. As 280 votes
is more than one-third of 839 that
number of votes would have defeat
ed the new county. Our attention
was called to this matter last week
by a gentleman who is an advocate
of Calhoun county but too late for
correction in last weeks paper as it
was printed some earlier than usual
on account of Christmas

Some Good Advice.

We commend the folliwing frim
the Branchville Journal to our young
men: young man what are you
doing for yourself, your town or
community? Are you among those
who take a social drink Of whiskey?
Are you among those who get drunk?
If so, you will profit by making a
resolution the first day of January,
1908, something like this: Begin
ming the first day of January, | will
not take drink of whiskey for
twelve months" We venture the
assertion that if you will make this
resolution and have backbone enough
to 20 one year and not take a drink,
it will not be necessary to make a
similar resolution in aJnuary, 1909.
The only safe way for man not to
make a drunkard is not to take the
first drink. The worst drunkard
alive today, began by taking social
drink with some friend. No gentle
man will get offended if you refuse
to take a social drink with him. A
drunkard is curse to his family,
his town or community. There is a
great demand for young men who
are energetic and sober.

Young Man Found Dead.

On Christmas Eve at half-past
eight o'clock as the Carolina Mid
land train was pulling into the main
line of the Southern Railway at
Batesburg the conductor found the
lifeless form of a man lying near the
track of the main line. Upon in
vestigating it proved to be the
body of Mr.. James Werts, of Lees
vile.
Mr.. Werts was a young married
man, who worked for the T. D. Cul-
lum Company at Batesburg, while
he lived at Leesville. 1t was his
custom to ride a wheel to and from
his work, the distance being two
miles.
There are several theories sugges-
ted. Some suspect foul play from
the fact that the young man was
apparently robbed, while others
thought that the pedal of his wheel
struck the end of a crosstie and
caused him to fall with such force
as to kill him, but from all circum-
stances it would seem that he was
struck by passing train.
When the crew of the train dis
covered him he had been dead for
some time. The deceased was a
hard working man and is survived by
a wife and two children. He was
a son of Mr.. Jesse W. Wertz of the
Elloree section and was held in high
esteem by large circle of friends.

ECLIPSE Of the Sun.

There will be eclipse Of the sun
tomorrow but the suns light will be
completely blotted out to only those
observers who are in the equatorial
regions Of the Pacific ocean. For
about four minutes the sun will be
completely hidden from those OBJ
servers. For observation there will
be several expeditions sent out to the
points which the eclipse will be to-
tai. No trace Of the eclipse Will be
visible in the United States except in
the middle part Of the country and
even at points within the slightly
visible region the moon will be seen
at sunset to encroach only on about
one-eighth of the suns disk.

or they must be set aside.
This same constitution provides for
the creation of new counties out OF
old ones under certain limitations,
and empowers the legislature to sup
ply the details for carrying this
provision into effect. Under this
power the legislature passed an act
regulating. the formation of new
counties. It is stated in this act that
all qualified electors living within
the boundaries of a proposed new
county shall be entitled to vote on
the question OF itsformation and that
they shall vote only at a voting pre-
cinct within the proposed new coun-
ty lines. The act also provides that
new county elections shall be held
under the provisions of the general
election law of the State, which pro-
vides for at least one voting precinct
in each township.
Under the provisions Of the con-
stitution and the act of the leglsla-
tnre there is but one way to form a
new county constitutionally. and
that is to take in the whole and not
a part of any township. Then every
qualified elector within the bounda-
ries of any proposed new county
would have a voting precinct at
which to vote. This, we believe, was
the intention of the legislature when
it passed the act in reference to the
formation of new co,Jlties. Other
wise it would have made some pro-
vision for those electors cut off in
fractional parts of townships as those
in the Calhoun County election were,
to vote.
1t is just as essential to carry out
the provision of the constitution in
referance to the rights of electors in
forming new counties as it is to car
ry out the provisions of the constitu-
tion in reference to the territory,
population and taxable values re-
quired to form a county. If the con-
stitutional provision in reference to
electors can be ignored why not the
others?
If township lines had been respect
ed in running out the proposed Cal
houn County lines every legal voter
in the proposed new county would
have had a voting precinct at which
to vote and there would have been no
voters disfrancnised. But this was
not done. Some of the townships
were cut in all sorts of shapes and
the voting precincts of large num-
Der OF qualified voters were lett out,
thus depriving them of the right to
vote. This was a voluntary act Of
the projectors Of the new county.
The shape of the proposed new coun-
ty would be much better than it is
now if the townships had been kept
in tact. Therefore, we are forced to
the conclusion that some of the town.
ships were butchered up as they are
for the express purpose of depriving
certain electors of their constitution
al right to vote on the formation of
the new county.
