The Greenville Piedmont truly
says: eff Folk were his bitterest po-
litical enemy, he (the governor) was
bound to appoint him Master of Bam-
berg county, just as those who voted
for Jones in the primary were bound
to vote for the governor in the gen.
eral election" The above express
sion was used by the Greenville pa
per in long and logical editorial on
the incident at the campaign meet
ing here. The editor of this newspa-
per and Mr.. Folk both kept their
oaths and supported the nominees
of the party in the general election.
Is a man who violates his oath to
support the nominees of the party
from whom he asks support entitled
to run as a candidate in Demo
cratic primary? Or to hold Office
under a Democratic administration ?
These are the questions the Demo
Gratis of Bamberg county must answer
by their votes.

We are surprised to see the Tol-
lowing insinuation or charge made
bv the Yorkville Enquirer, a paper
which rather prides itself we think on
being fair and just: But Jennings
and Pollock are not in this thing
(the Senatorial race) without mo-
tive. There is no need for anybody to
deceive themselves on that score.
As to Just what the selfish interest
behind the motive of these two poll
ticians is, we do not know. Possibly
it is money-expenses paid from
some source, and a good bonus in
addition" This sort of talk is un-
worthy of a newspaper with the En-
ouirer's record. If it has any proof
that the charge is true it should
give it, but we really think, after
consideration, that the Enquirer will
agree with US that it is neither just
nor fair to be making such an in
sinuation in the manner it did. II
YOU want to charge that Jennings
and Pollock are making the race for
money, come out and say so. Make
the charge direct.

We are delighted to see that our
city council and the county super
visor have adopted the idea of per-
manent work On the streets and
roads. This is the right idea. II
this method had been followed for
the past fifteen years we would now
have some fine streets and sidewalks
in Bamberg and many miles of first
class roads throughout the county
We trust the policy of permanent i'm
provements will be continued, fol
this is true economy. Possibly man!
people will not realize right now that
that it is best, but they will in re"
years.

it to his master, Edward Morris. an

Bob is the handsome setter own

We had all arrangements made to
attend the meeting of the State Press
Association at Chick Springs this
week, but sickness in our force made
it imperative that we stay at home
and work. However, it is just as

of certain happenings, and it is not
likely that we will ever attend anoth-
er meeting of newspaper men.

Candidly, we regret for a campaign
year to come around. We hear so
much talking of politics that it gets
rather tiresome at times. Then, too,
the speeches of the politicians GER
tainly make US tired. We really wish
that personalities could and would
be left out of political debates.

This thing of interrupting speak

This thing of interrupting speak
ers at campaign meetings should be
stopped. These men have paid their
assessments and are entitled to the
privilege of making their plea to the
voters. If any man does not want
to hear them he should stay away.
But, after all, the responsibility rests
upon the presiding officers. II they
would do their duty and have some
of these fellows who insist ON inter-
rupting and attempting to howl down
the speakers, the practice would
stop. 1t is true there are two pollti-
cal factions in this State, but each
side should have fair show.
