The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1914-12-03

The chief commodity newspaper
has for sale is it's space. Yet news
paper is more often called upon to
give of it's commodity than any other
industry in existence. Take, for in
stance, the matter of helping the far
mer. Of course, helping the farmer
is a favorite topic with those seeking
notoriety, politicians and a few
others. They make big noise ev-
cry time they offer motion in some
so-called cotton meeting to help the
farmer" Well. perhaps that is all
good and we'll We hope so anyway.
But, to revert to the subject. The
newspapers of the country have given
column after column, page after
page, to making public every plan
conceived to benefit the farmer. This
space. had it been paid for. would
have been worth. we will venture to
estimate, more than the value OF all
cotton bought at ten cents pouHu.
And the newspapers did not make
any noise. This is saying a whole
lot to get at the core of the thing.
and that is if the readers of news
papers appreciate what the newspa-
pers have done, always do, and al
WAYS will do for them. they should
not rank the newspaper last in pay
ing their debts. And when you get
tired of your paper. don't go to the
postoffice and refuse to take it out
to escape paying just debt. Do
your paper the courtesy of writing
and asking that it be discontinued
and be sure to pay up before doing

Battle in Poland Rage> With Great
Intensity.-(;erman Reported to
Have Broken Russian Lines.

London, Dec. 1.-The battle in
! Northern Poland is being fought out
under the eyes OF the German EN-
peror, on one side, and the Russian
emperor. on the other. These two
monarchs left for the front today.
so that virtually the heads of all the
nations at war are with their troops.
The king of England is in France;
| the king of Belgium, as usual, is
spending all his time with his SOL
diers, while President Poincare, of
France. started today for another
visit to the northern battlefield.
Official news from Poland contin-
ues scanty, and, with both headquar-
ters claiming successes, it is impossl-
BILE to say how the battle is going.
Of it's. intensity, however. there can
| be no doubt.
The Germans, when they started
| for Warsaw, dashed full tilt into a
mass of Russian troops and forced
their way so far in that the Russians
| closed on them. This was taken in
Petrograd to mean that some of the
German divisions had been cut off
and that their surrender or annihila-
ton was inevitable.
Russian Line Broken.
1t appears, however, that. fighting
for their very lives and in the knowl-
edge that a great defeat would end
the German offensive and compel
them to fall back on their own from
tiers, the German troops broke
through the Russian lines at one
place and at another are holding
entertainments against all the Rus
sian attacks. Their ,flanks still are
being harassed by the Cossacks, but
seemingly the Russians are not in a
position to gain the sweeping victory
they had anticipated.
The losses, with the desperate
fighting that has been going on for
fortnight. must necessarily be very
heavy on both sides.
Against the Austro-German forces
in the south the Russians continue
to gain more decisive results. They
now hold all Austrian positions pro-
tecting the Carpathian passes and
are said to have arrived abreast of
Cracaw. while their captures for
three weeks number fifty thousand
men.
Lively Cannonade.
In the west, although the German
official report says there is nothing
to communicate, the French official
statement notes a lively cannonade
in Belgium and German activity
north of Arras. This may mean the
Germans have commenced, or are
about to commence, another attempt
to get through to the French ports.
Certainly there are important
changes in the dispositions of the
German troops.
Military men here disagree, some
believing the Germans will rest con-
tent with holding their positions un-
til the close of the battle in Poland,
where they need all the men they
can get, while others look for an i'm
mediate resumption of the battle in
Northern France and Flanders.
The Germans. too, according to
Dutch reports, are strongly fortify-
ing Zeebrugge and other Belgian
ports against a renewal of attacks
by the allied fleet. Fighting around
Ypress was due to the allies pushing
their lines forward.

Governor-elect Manning is quoted
as saying that there will be no race
track gambling after the new ad-
ministration goes into office. That
sounds good. 1t has been long
time since we have heard such things
uttered in South Carolina by the
head of the administration. Espec-
ially in view of the fact that prepara-
tions are being made for the usual
racing in Charleston, SO it is said.

WAIKIKI INN AGAIN.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: AS the Waikiki Inn has. for
some time, been in the public eye
not to say the public nostrils-it may
be of interest to the numerous credi.
tors-who are concerned in the exis-
tence of the license of the place-to
know CT the fist fight pulled off in the
bar of the joint on the evening of Mon
day last, and, also, of the approval of
Scully and the financial manager" of
the Inn, both of whom were eye-wit-
nesses of the mill. as was another
saloonkeeper, a town-house man; the
scrap was participated in by brewery
employee and a Waterfowl inspector,
the latter, being fully drunk, having
the worst of the encounter. -.
Why allow a man to be hours drunk
on the place? Why allow the fight?
Both the old manager and the recently
appointed one should have made some
efforts to stop the ARRAY, but, as jeff
is away they, 70 doubt, keenly enjoyed
the fight-on licensed premises!
The above is the truth; publish it.

THE DELEGATE TO CONGRESS

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: The delegate to congress is
undoubtedly the most important office
in the gift of the people of Hawaii;
and it Is not too much to say that in
the way this Office is filled NAV depend
the prosperity or ruin of this whole
territory. Therefore. too nue..
thought cannot be given to this sub.
ject. And as this will effect everyone,
rich and poor, it behooves everyone
to do what is right and what is best
for the whole people. il. ~. -
In this consideration no color-line
or sentiment of any kind should be
allowed to influence anyone, nor
should friendship or favoritism be per.
mitted to influence anyone; because
there is too much at stake. The man
best fitted to fill this office needs
many attributes and much knowledge
of the world. and of legislation and
of history, and many other things
but above all he must be alive to the
requirements of this territory and
deeply interested in them, and know
how best to enhance them-in word
he should be ION to his job" And
what is about as important. he should
be on the job at all times, or when,
ever congress is in session. In the

PEACE ON THE PACIFIC.

JingOsts west and east are COMPOUNDED and
repudiated by the combined assurances of ia
pan, Great Britain and the United States that
no friction exists between Japan and Uncle Sam
and that the peace of the Pacific is not to be
disturbed by Nipponese campaign against Ger
man possessions
II is significant that Japan's plans as TO bel
ligerency against Germany were communicated
to the United States through the British en-
bassy in Washington. The significance is that
quite evidently Japan and Great Britain are
working in close cooperation to subdue the Ger
man forces on the coast of Asia and Great Brit
aims guarantee for protection of American in
terests is added to that of Nippon.
Obviously American interests and the nice
balance of power on the Pacifietwould be seri
0usly imperlled were Japan to conduct war
Of conquest against German possessions in the
Pacific. The possibility of this, even though
remote, aroused some anxiety in Hawaii after
the publication yesterday morning of dispatches
stating that Japan might seize the German
Island possessions in this ocean. But almost
as soon as the rumor was born, Great Britain's
official statement on behalf of Japan killed it.
The present Japanese ministry may be rp-
earded as fundamentally friendly to the United
states The Yamamoto ministry, militarist in
makeup and particularly devoted to naval ex-
Dansion program, has been oyerthrown. With
its overthrow went much of the chip-On-the-

JUST ONE SAFE COURSE

Ii the rumOr is true that creditors who lately
took over Waikiki Inn intend to drop Manager
Scully and on the strength of this and promises
for future good conduct of the place ask the
license commissioners for special night privi-
leges, there is but one course for the commission
TO pursue and that is to refuse the extension of
these special privileges.
Waikiki Inn has a bad name and if half of
the charges against its conduct are true, the
bad name has been fully earned. Furthermore,
10 showing has been made or can be made for
allowing still further liberties of liquOr-sellng
1t the beach resort. Teh reports of the license
Inspector, the experience of the police depart
nent, the Investigations of grand juries, have
repeatedly and consistently shown that the
greatest danger from the booze business to the
roung people of Honolulu lies in the night-sell
ing privileges at a beach resort such as Waikiki
Inn. ..sH
In the name of decency, cannot enough booze
Ne sold at Waikiki Inn up to II 80 o'clock at
night?
The traffic after IL 80 o'clock, as Honolulu
people know from unfortunate experience, is apt
% be of the sort that wrecks homes and happi-
ness, ruins young girls and starts young men on
he path to shame and disgrace.
1t will be backward step, downward step,
Il the license commissioners add another to the
list of resorts where booze can be bought late
1t night-bought under such conditions that
proper surveillance is impossible.
Within the past few weeks the commission has
earned how difficult it is to see that the liquor
laws are properly administered. 1t has appar-
ntly been powerless to get at the bottom of the
allegations of law violation at this same Waikiki
Inn
Will the commission now allow another loop
lole-another opportunity and an easy one
or stretching the law a point or two so that a
ew more dollars can be made off the night
sraffic?
The license commissioners hold a justly-wen
equation for safeguarding the community in
administering the liquor laws. The rumor now
lying around in booze circles that Waikiki Inn
hortly is to be "opened up will, we believe
rom the past record Of the commission, be an
swered by an emphatic denial to the request for
light-privileges at a resort that deserves no spe
ial consideration.
