Registration Story.

Registration figures tell the story
locally. Only about one-third Of the
vote was registered. and the Repub-
leans fcl on about 100 more than
the Democrats In the registration.
The Democratic conncilmanic and
aldermanic tickets were elected by
majorltles ranging from 81 to 1l5.
The school board candidates ran be-
hind their ticket. allowing three Re-
pu1l,rans: Hubbard in the Third;
Wanner IN the Fourth and Koib in
the Fifth TO got through by major
tiles Of i9. as and 81, respectively.
Had the Republicans get out any
thing Hike their registered votes in
some precincts. where they fell down
for some reason. they would have
elected all but one OF the school
trustees and would have elected one
or two councilmen: but since the
Democrats fell down the same way
in one or two precincts. II is six OF
one and half a dozen OF the other.
Suffice IL TO say there was little
interest In the election. and the
Democratic ticket, carried but a
small proportion OF its registered
vote, losing neaHy 500 from the
registration.
The result maintains a Republican
majority CT two in the school board
four Republicans holding over. The
makeup Of the board after January

this convention from Newberry county
and brief sketch Of them without
hunting up reference books. If any

gentlemen, The Herald aud News

EDWARD REGINALD HIPP.
4 Tribute.

On the oath of June, 1910, Edward
Reginald Hipp laid aside the staff of
his earthly pilgrimage in obedience
to the summons of him who giveth his
beloved rest and sleep. For about II
years he had been a member of the
Church of the Redeemer, and during
most of this time one of it's deacons.
When the new house of worship was
erected, he was a member of the build
ing committee and his intelligent zeal
and liberality contributed largely to
the success of the enterprise. AS citi-
zen he was public spirited and patrio-
tic; as husband and father he mingl-
ed frmness with kindness and affec-
tion; as a member of the church he
was loyal and faithful, and his con-
gregation, as we'll as the college and
other institutions of the church, found
in him a free, liberal and cheerful
giver He was a strong, true, useful,
good man; and his loss is keenly felt
by the community and the church. In
life and in the hour of death he was
sustained by unfaltering trust.
Therefore be it resolved by the
church council of the Church of the
Redeemer:
1. That We are deeply sensible of
the great loss that we have suffered
