The Marlboro democrat. [volume] (Bennettsville, S.C.) 1882-1908, 1908-02-07
BY PRECEPT AND EXAMPLE.

This year is campaign year and
everything from the President Of
the United States down to the
smallest Office holder is to be G.
lcctcd. Although the regular open
ing of the campaign is some months
off, still politics are on the move
and candidates are coming out of
the woods and announcing them
selves along with their platforms.
With us of Marlboro the cleo
ton Of the state officers and the
county officers arc the principal
things of interest. That the pres
ent Governor and almost the en-
tire set Of state officers will be re-
elected is well nigh forcgonc con
clusion. And that is all right.
They have made good records
and deserve another term.
One Of the principal things is
to vote for the best man. Maybe
the best man isn't as warm Il per
sonal friend Of yours as another
candidate but that should not be
an excuse for not voting for him.
Vote for tho best man every time
and YOU will be satisfied.
Ono suggestion we would offer,
when you vote for a man for Office
be certain mud sure that the mali
practices what lie breaches. Be
sure that We is himself a living
example for the principles for
which he asks election. And in
this don't be deceived by talk. BE
certain and then, if he is the best
man in the race, vote for him and
get all your friends to vote for
him and do all you can to get him
elected. lie will make a fine off
Ger no matter what the Office for
which he asks election. This is
the time to be thinking Of such
matters for election drawcth near
and it bchooves the citizens to be
up and doing.

LETS HAVE FIRE PROTEC-
TEON.

The destructive fire which visit
ed this place last Friday an ac-
count Of which appears in another
place in t h s columns-has
taught the need, indeed if any
moro lessons along that line
were needed, Of some means Of
fighting fire. We need fire protcc-
ton and our people should see to
it that they have fire protection.
The insurance companies will be
fighting shy Of us if we don't get
some means OF fighting a fire and
they would be justified in doing
SO. A property loss Of between
S15O,00O and 5000, 900, besides The
amount of suffering and other loss
which can't be valued by dollars
and.cents should make people take
cognizant Of the fact Of the lack
Of fire protection.

the "Kershaw Compulsory Educa-

Several members congratulated
me on my success. Who has not

before thcml This bill will put
an end to this-it does not pro
hibit a man taking a drink in the
smoker, or the dining car. or
closets etc.
The law works well in North
Carolina, a copy of the bill will be
posted in all passenger coaches in
South Carolina, and the penalty is
sufficient to prohibit this public
disregard and disrcspect of ladis
and gentlemen while travelling on
our railroad coaches. OF course,
no gentleman will publicly drink
in the presence Of ladies, and this
law is intended to force these
toughs and men destitute of re-
spcct for ladies to refrain from
their obnoxious habits and indul-
gcnccs while in the presence of
ladies'. | fesl sure that the bill
