THURSDAY, APR. 29. 1910.
Our Memorial Edition.

We expect to publish next
week-our next regular issue,
May 5-a Memorial Day Edition.
The object of this issue is to
help to arouse enthusiasm and
interest in the monument un-
yelling that is to take place here
on May 10, under the auspices
of the Williamsburg Chapter Of
the Daughters of the Confederacy.
There is still due several hun
dred dollars on the monument,
we understand, and every dollar
oe this should I've in hand before
May 10, the day for they un-
yelling exercises.
Our Memorial Day issue will
contain from. twelve to sixteen
pages, according to the encour-
agement we receive from the
public. Several pages Of this will
be reading matter especially
adapted to Memorial Day, pre-
fusely illustrated with appropri-
ate cuts.
We are publishing this issue
under the auspices of the U D
c chapter and for 2ll the extra
advertising received for the issue
at our regular rates, we will
donate one-fourth to the monu-
ment fund. Moreover, we expect
this edition to run to 2,oOO
copies, which will give us nearly
one thousand extra papers. These
we will furnish the Daughters OF
the Confederacy at three cents a
copy-the actual cost of produc-
ton, as we figure it-and they
may have the profit on every
copy they sell at five cents EACH

that the worst of the freeze il
behind us.

We congratulate our eqtefprising
contemporary, the Charleston Even
ing Post, on it's latest forward
movement. The Post is a splendid
newspaper-there isno better after
noon paper published anywhere in
the State-but heretofore, owing to
the fact that it did not reach many
points outside of Charleston until
the day after publication, its circu-
lation has been almost entirely
confined to that city. Now, how
ever, The Post gets out a 2:3O p m
edition which reaches Kingstree
about 6 o'clock, so that now we get
the news the day that it happens.
With this distinct advantage over
other newspapers, The Post ought
to be able to build up a fine circu-
lation through this section.
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1910-04-28

Orders for these papers may be
sent to this Office and due credit
will be given to the monument
fund.
We are making this PROPOSE
'tion to try to aid a worthy
cause. There is no money in it
for us; in fact, we shall be glad
to come out even, the extra ex-
pense considered. If the people
of Williamsburg are willing TO
help the noble women who have
made such splendid efforts to
make this monument a reality,
here is the opportunity to aid
them and at the same time get
full value for every dollar spent.
Every subscriber to The Record
ought to be willing to spend five
cents for one extra copy of the
paper to send to. some friend
and there will be hundreds of
visitors who should want copy
as a memento of the occasion.
Our solicitor will see the bus
iness men who are not already
our advertisers and we hope to
h We a liberal response. Remem-
Der this is not a Kingstree at
fair-the honor of Williamsburg
county is at stake. We must all
pull together and make the un-
yelling Of the monument to our
Confederate soldiers a success.

THE OIL MILL SITUATION.
Deal Pending to Sell Local Plant
matter Still In Embryo.

There have been various rumors
about town for the past week or two
relative to a deal pending between
the South Atlantic Oil Company and
certain parties in Darlington, which,
if effected, will result in the local
mill changing hands and being re-
modelled under new management.
While this is a consummation de-
voutly to be hoped, as it would be a
material advantage to the town for
the oil mill to resume operation un-
der favoring conditions, yet we have
it on the best authority that the
whole affair is as yet merely under
consideration and by no means a
certainty. We have been advised of
the pending deal for some time but
deemed it premature to give the
matter publicity while in an embry-
onic state.
Our readers may rest assured that
when this or any other matter affect
ing the interest Of Kingstree be-
comes an assured fact no time will
be lost in giving itpublicity through
lhe medium of this newspaper.

The formality of electing a
United States Senator was gone
through yesterday by the General
Assembly of the State Of Louisiana.
Governor Sanders accepted the elec
tion and made an address accep--
ting the same. There was some
little opposition to having two
senators from one parish but things
had been So we'll arranged that
there was no difficulty and the OPP
position amounted to scarcely no.
thing.
There were resolutions intro
duced requiring that one va
cancy be filled by a primary
election, Or that if the Governor
wanted the position that he
should resign the governorship
at once. The matter as it now
stands is that Senator Sanders
elect will not resign until he
takes his seat in the Senate
which will be December next.
Lieut.. Governor Lam Fremont
will ascend to the chief execu-
tive's chair, while President of
the Senate, T. G. Barrett, will
be promoted to the Lieutenant
GoveInorship. Lam bremont's
fir ends wanted Sanders to re-
sign at once, but he could not
see it that way and after dick
ering with one another, the
Governor had his way as usual.

Senator Samuel Douglas Nc
Emery lives no more, he died at
his home in New Orleans last
Tuesday after a short illness,the
cause of his death being acute
indigestion. The venerable senator
had just returned from Washing
ton at the close of the session.
He was taken sick on the train
but felt sufficiently strong 70
ride from the train to his home
alone in his carriage. On his ar
rival home he was very weak and
medical assistance was secured,
he rallied but complications Set
in and his system was too weak
to survive the shock.
His remains were inferred on
last Thursday after a ceremony
at his home at which Rev. Father
Biever of the Jesuit's Church
delivered a eulogy., deceased be-
ing a Catholic. People from all
over the state as well as a COM
mittee from the Senate and a com
mittee from the State Senate
and House attended his funeral.
AMONG the honorary pail bearers
selected was Judge Taylor Beat
tie who represented Lafourche.
The deceased had served the pco
pie of his state in various capaci-
| ties from Governor to the Supreme
Court and from there to the Senate.
He served with distinction in
the Supreme Court and from
there to the Civil War. The
news of his death reached US too
late last week to make proper
mention of his death so we de-
I layed until this Week.
