When there were six good men
running for governor on the anti
Blease ticket, The Bamberg Herald
was not disposed to champion the
cause for any of them. Now that
there is but one anti-Blease candi-
date, we give Hon. Richard l. Man.
ming our unalloyed support. He is
a good man, one who is we'll fitted
to guide the ship of State through a
successful term as governor. It
would be a great misfortune now if
the friends of Manning, who is un-
questionably the choice of the major
ity Of voters in South Carolina.
should fail to go to the polls and
vote for him--thereby allowing the
election of Richards to go by default.
Manning is elected if the people will
but go to the polls. Apathy is foe
of good government, and We hope
the sin of omission will not have
to be charged up to the Democrats
of South Carolina next Tuesday.

We would appreciate it, and so
would many people of Bamberg. es-
pecially the ladies, if city council
would keep the crowd of loafing
negroes away from the passenger
station at train time. On Sunday af-
ternoons especially there is always
a crowd of negroes at the station,
and they crowd around the train so
that it is very inconvenient to get
on and off. If council will keep peo-
pie away from the trains who have
no business there. especially up In
the narrow space between the station
and tracks they will be heartily
thanked we feel sure.

Professor John G. Clinkscales re-
ceived a most complimentary vote,
polling more than 10000. Mr.. Clink-
scales staked his race entirely on
compulsory education. 1t seems en-
tirely possible that under ordinary
conditions compulsory education
would have won by a large majority
in this election, as large number
did not vote for Mr.. Clinkscales be-
cause they did not believe him to be
the strongest man in the second pri-
mary on the anti-Blease side.

So far as we have been able tp
see there has been no disposition on
the part Of the opponents of the pres
ent administration to "crow" over
the victory. OF course the anti
Bleaseites feel jubilant over their
victory. The election seems to us
to have been entirely free from
fraud, and very few irregularities
have been reported; and the defeat
of Bleaseism was overwhelming. We
respect the opinions of those who do
not think as we do and have not the
least i'll feeling against them. So we
may as we'll get together now and
work for the good Of the State.

Bamberg county gave Senator
Smith a magnificent vote Tuesday.
In 1912\the governor received SIS
votes: in 1914 the governor received
372 votes. Thus it will be seen that
203 of the governors supporters in
this county voted against him this
year. In the redemption of South
Carolina Bamberg has done her part.

Of the passage door turning AS the

framed in the faint light that came
from the single burner In the corridor
the slender form of her husband, Dick

The. next instant he had stepped

clapped tight over the young mans

he held the torch still, he, like the
others, was in shadow.

Gopher Day at Judith Gap.

The business men and citizens of
Judith Gap, Montana, have instituted
a unique innovation in making up a
fund to pay bounty on all the gopher
tails that are brought in on a certain
day. One cent is paid for each tail.
The gophers are to be killed within
certain area around Judith Gap. This
territory, while not definite, is to be
within the area from which Judith
Gay secures it's business.
The first gopher day was held dur
ing June, 1918, at which time over ten
thousand gopher tails were brought in
and paid for. Those who had this in
charge were so well pleased with the
results that they decided to hold
similar affair this year. Over three
hundred dollars was subscribed for
the gopher day fund this year to pay
for gopher tails and prizes for athletic
contests that were put OH as an addi-
tional attraction for the day. The
gopher day this year was held Satur-
day, May 10th, and was largely at
tended
The boys and girls brought in a great
number of gopher trils, for which they
received a penny apiece. Some boys
brought in seven hundred and more;
others in numbers ranging from five
up. All received their money and
We're we'll pleased with their efforts.
At 30 in the afternoon the people
assembled at the bank building where
they met to listen to addresses by
leading citizens and farmers, all en-
phasizing the Importance of co-opera-
tion between town and country. And
this is evidently true in this locality
where business men and farmers are
learning to know each other better
both from business and social stand
point.
The money thus spent to encourage
the destruction of gophers was very
wisely used. AS result of this the
farmers in this territory will have
several thousand bushels mole of
grain this fall. 1t is hardly conceiva-
BILE how much damage 25 600 gophers
could dO. in a season, but it certainly
would be a large amount. IT other
towns would emulate Judith Gap, 60
pliers would soon be very rare.-Carl

turist.

Hail Insurance

In the great grain growing states
of the northwest hail insurance
has always been demanded by the
farmers. From the time the grain
is up and jointed until harvest, is
comparatively short period. The
outlook for splendid crop may be
most promising, and within a few
moments the entire seasons work
be destroyed by hail. Last year
hail storms were numerous and
severe. 1t is simply good business
policy to protect your growing
crops against loss by hail in the
same way that your buildings and
other property are protected. Our
policies are standard, and the in
surance takes effect at noon of the
day that the application reaches
the home office at Huron, So. Oak.
va The Globe insurance is
limited to $4,000 per section. Do
not wait until the storm has passed.
Make your application early. Our
losses are paid in cash. There
will be no delay. The Globe is a

all policies are as good as the best.
You will be we'll protected and
