Big Death Roll
on Railroads.

A total of 103, $3.50 persons have
been killed as trespassers on railroad
property in this country in the last
twenty-three years.
That is over SO per cent of all the
deaths on all railroads from all
causes in that length of time. 1t is
over thirty times as many as pas
sengers killed in accidents to trains.
which might have been prevented by
the adoption of such modern meth
DDS of prevention as steel cars, auto
matte stops and signals.
Notwithstanding these astounding
disclosures, both state and national
and railway commissions do very
little to minimize the slaughter of
trespassers, while constantly insist
ing on more rigid discipline for the
prevention of train accidents.
Railroads, in the meantime, con-
tlnue to expend their millions to-
ward the perfection of safe travel.
The Union Pacific alone paws out
$3OO.OOO annually merely to main
tain its automatic block signal sys-
tenn. the establishment of which has
involved millions.

OF the 1850 employees killed in
accidents to trains, the statistics
show that at least so per cent of
such fatalities are due to the victims

From these figures. which are COM
piled from official records kept, it APP
pears, then, that of the 1872, 542 per-
sons killed on trains or tracks in
three years, ITS, 800 91-2 per
cent came to their deaths through
their own fault or mischance, while
1882 or only 8.8 per cent, met
death in outright train accidents.
And in spite of such facts, the 8.8
per cent is invariably made more
conspicuous in the public eye,
through the channels of publicity
and the lawmakers and lawbrakers
than the 91.2 per cent.
The railroads, in other words, are
left unaided by law and public senti-
ment, and but for their own re
sources, powerless to prevent the
great majority of fatalities laid by a
ruthlessly unjust discrimination, at
their door.

RECALL AN IRRITAT0R.

The petition of recall for the
Mayor and a member of the coun-
Gil of Orangeburg, is creating con-
siderable feeling in the city on
the Edisto. The opposition to
the recall, charge the other side
with being sore, and the allega-
tlons in the petitions are with
out warrant, and altogether un'
justified. 1t is just the condi-
ton brought about in Orange.

wisdom of the recall provision IN
the commission form cf govern
ment; there is no end to the diff
fcultles likely to arise in a city
where there are two or more

DARING FREE ACTS.
permitting

Last Sunday the subject was taken
up and handled from the several pull
pits. Sunday night the service at the
Baptist church was converted into a
general mass meeting, and participated
in by members of the several churches,
as we'll as non. members. Charlton Du-
Rant Esq. was the principal speaker.
he discussed the liquor question thor
oughly, and his remarks met with the
approval of the entire congregation.
Rev. J. A. Ansley, Capt. D: J. Brad
ham, Mr.. a. S. Briggs, Mr.. F. G.
Thomas, and others also discussed the
matter forcibly, and made it clear that
the contemplated country club was not
desired, and would not be tolerated.
At the conclusion of the meeting the
following resolution was adopted unan-
imously.
Be it resolved, by the members OF the
several Christian churches, and citi-
zeps of Manning, assembled in Man
ming Baptist Church, that we put our
selves on record as being opposed to
the establishment of the Clarendon
Country Club, or any other place for
the sale or distribution OF alcoholic
LIQUOR, and pledge ourselves to support
all lawful efforts to prevent the same.

Tribute.

On the evening of December II, 1918
at $50 o'clock at his home near Man
ming. God must have said to His
Reapers-'Go to earth and pluck very
gently the spirit of Clifford A. Gibson
and bring it to me-" So peacefully
Gid his spirit leave him that the
watchers scarcely knew when the
change came. Clifford A. Gibson, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. L. r. Gibson was born
August %, 1888 and in early life he
ioined the Baptist church Of which he
remained member till his death.
His chief object seemed to be to help
the suffering and needy. II there was
one sick in the family or community,
very soon Clifford was there and with
a firm, gentle hand, soon calmed to
rest the suffering.
Truly Clifford was a faithful son,
brother and friend. He considered 90
sacrifice too great for his friend, and
relatives. He was only confoed to his
bed about a week, and never did we
know him to complain or become i'm
patient. On the day that he died he
said to his mother "please lay on my
bed with me for 1 can't stand it much
longer" and truly he lived as he died.
Truly useful life has gone out from
among US, and we too, must 90. He
was buried on December 10, 1913, near
Pinewood, in the prrseuce Of large
number Of friends aud relatives.
Dear as thou went and justly dear.
We would not weep for thee:
| One thought shall check the starting
tear,
1t that thou art free.

Dear Santa Claus:-The country chill
dren in South Carolina have been very
good during the past year. They have
attended school faithfully aad have
worked hard. Their fathers haye also
worked lndustriously and intelligently,
and Providence has smiled graciously
upon our State. They are all expect
ing a fine Christmas and many gifts
from Santa Claus.
The Rural School Supervisor has a
special request to make OF YOU. When
YOU are making up your gifts for the
bows and girls of the Palmetto State
do not forget some good reading suita'
BILE tothe children. The country chill
dren in our State have little access to
libraries, and many of them have IN
their homes few books which they can
read. We should especially like TO
have you bring them good paper
suited to the boys and girls. The writ
er formed his reading habits through
reading The Youths Companion which
came to him weekly as Christmas
present when he was boy. Please
send many of our boys and girls in
South Carolina 4 subscription TO this OF
some other paper which will be a week,
" reminder of your love for the chill
dren. If you will do this. we will
promise You brighter and better BOYS
and girls next year.

Good Clean Show.

The Krause Greater Shows are here,
and will open up this evening. This
is, from all the comments of the press
one of the cleanest shows on the road.
By some it is called the Sunday
School Carnival" We have talked to
gentlemen who have seen this show in
other towns and all of them speak of it
highly, and lay stress on the fact that
it does not permit any gambling or
other demoralizIng features. In the
Florence Times Mr.. \. H. Gasque
whom We know very we'll is quoted:
"Everything is conducted so differently
the shows are all clean and meritorious
every one is worth many times the
price of admission that is asked TO see
them, which is very unusual. the diff
ferent type Of con men, Erafters and
gamblers are made conspicuous by
their absence. There are no fresh
young girls carried with the show in
any capacity, all women connected

There Viii Be No Country CluD.

The proposed movement to establish
a Country Club; in the vicinity OF
Manning has aroused public sentiment
in opposition so strong that we doubt
very much if the projectors will at
tempt to carry out their purpose. 1t is
known that the law forbids the estab-
lishment Of an institution which per-
mits the storing of lntoxicants where
persons congregate to drink, such
places are declared nuisance, and
subject to severe penalties, not only So,
but where the public sentiment as man
ifested, is so much opposed,it would be
foolhardy for any man or set OF men to
attempt to defy it.
The projectors OF this club applied to
the Secretary of State for o charter to
establish club for social, literary, and
charitable purposes, with the privilege
of having amusements, and other tea
lures, but this does not allow features
which the law forbids, and as the stor.
ing of liquor is contrary to law, all
clubs, whether under the lockers or
otherwise are illegal, and will not be
permitted by the people OF this COM
munity.
There are many who favor the legal
sale of intoxicants who are as much op-
posed to the club scheme as are the
most ardent Prohibitionists, these will
heartily join in TO prevent the estab-
lishment of a lawless institution be-
cause, they regard such as worse than
an open barroom or a dispensary. To
belong to 'the club is more enticing
to the young than an open bar, because,
the bar is so condemned that the young,
out of regard for public sentiment, will
remain away, but with club which is
visited by the prominent: gives to the
young a certain amount of imaginary
prestige which they will crave to get
within its portals, and disaster results.
