Work Going Forward.

Work on the railroad from BAN
berg to Ehrhardt is getting on fine.
There is large force of hands at
work, and the grading is finished
about seven miles below town. The
right of way is cut out for good
distance ahead, and most of the worst
grading has been finished. If the
present rate keeps up, the grading
force will be in Ehrhardt in few
weeks. There is also a large force
engaged in cutting cross ties, and in
fact the work is being pushed all
along the line. Estimates have al
ready been made by contractors on
the trestle work, and these contracts
will be let at an early date. The
company in charge of the construc'
ton wants to finish the road as soon
as possible, and they are taking ad'
vantage of the recent dry weather tc
work out the worst places on the line

Some mighty good work is being
done in Bamberg this week in the
matter of claying the principal
streets of the city. A number OF cltl-
zens are furnishing their wagons and
drivers for couple of days and the
city is having the clay dug and the
wagons loaded. In this way the cost
does not come heavy on any one, and
vet at the same time the town and It's
citizens are being greatly benefited.
1T is the incest display of what a
body of public-sprited citizens work
ing together can accomplish that we
have seen in some time, and we are
glad our people are waking up along
the line of pulling together. This
spirit will make Bamberg the pest
town anywhere. Everybody came in
to the plan with enthusiasm, and the
work of the committee was made a
pleasure by the hearty response OF
all our citizens.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1911-08-03

The cooperation shown by our
citizens, as we'll as their public spirit,
in the matter Of claying the streets,
is the best indication we have seen
in some time for the growth OF Bam-
berg. Not a man refused his aid and
cooperation, but all willingly and
gladly contributed teams and drivers
for this purpose, and those who could
not furnish teams were only too glad
to contribute money in aid OF the
undertaking. This is the sort of splr-
1T we need to make Bamberg grow.
This movement shows what can be
done by cooperation. While the work
would be expensive if undertaken by
the city alone, still, under the plan
being carried out, no one will feel
the small amount contributed. Let
us pursue this same, idea in all pub
lie matters. The get-together and
pull-together-spirit is what we need
and we are gratified that our citizens
are pursuing the policy.

DEATH SENTENCE FOR BOY.
Young Mexican Convicted Six Days
After Staying Girl.

Pecos, Tex, July 29.-Lon Mar
tinez, the Mexican youth, was con-
victed at 2 o'clock this afternoon by
a Jury on the charge of numbering
Miss Emma Brown, at Saragosso, last
Saturday. The death penalty was as
sessed. A crowd attended the trial
and hundreds shook hands with
Judge Isaacs for his prompt work.
When Martinez attacked the girl,
she fought desperately. He stabbed
her several times and fed. A posse
was secured and captured him within
a few hours. Feeling reached that
pitch that the authorities asked for
State rangers to prevent lynching.
Mexicans at Ell Paso, aroused by
the threats of vengeance upon the
young man, engaged an attorney to
defend him. Counsel endeavored to
show his client was but 16 years of
age and hence not subject for CAPT.
tai punishment under the laws of
Texas. Evidence was introduced to
show him to be over 18 years old.
But six days elapsed between the
commission of the crime and the con-
viction.

May Lynch Negro.

Brinkley, Ark, July 29.-Hun'
dreds of citizens are securing the
country for a negro, Will Hunt, alias
Six Shooter, who shot and killed j. j.
Baker, a rotary engineer in the en-
ploy of the Robe-Blake Tobacco com

is feared a lynching will be inevitable

The negro entered the grounds OF
the company without warning, and
when Baker asked him to leave, it is
said the black drew his revolver and
emptied the contents into the body OF
the white man, death resulting in
stantly.
Immediately after the news of the
killing spread bloodhounds were sent
for from Forrest City and Memphis,
and posses were at once formed to
hunt the negro down.
