"The public servant who fails his en-

Congressman George NJ. Young of
North Dakota, says:
"A public servant Is valuable in pro-

No Carnival This Week.

Last week it was advertised that
the Nashville Amusement company,
carnival concern, would exhibit in
Bamberg this week. But the show
did not materialize. There is State
law, so it is said by those who ought
to know, fixing a license fee of 500
per day'on all shows that exhibit un-
der tent or tents. 1t appears that
there has not been any enforcement
of this law-or perhaps it has only
recently gone into effect-but Sheriff
Ray stated that it was his intention
to collect the license should the car
nival pitch it's tents upon Bamberg
county soil. Some of the carnival
people came to town Sunday, but the
shows failed to arrive, the intentions
of the sheriff evidently reaching the
ears of the owners before starting
for this burg. It is understood that
carnival was prevented from ex-
hibiting at Denmark week or two
ago on account of the prohibitive Ii
cenSe.

The matter of securing signatures
to petitions calling for an election on
the question of voting bonds for a
system of sewerage and waterworks
for Bamberg has been revived. Prof.
J. G.. Guilds has volunteered his ef-
forts to getting signers to the peti-
tions, and is meeting with considera-
bic success. The matter was agitated
in Bamberg some months ago, but,
for some reason, the matter was not
pushed at that time. The petitions
call for an election to be held. at
which it is proposed to vote bonds
in a sufficient amount to install a
modern system of sewerage in the
city and also a system of waterworks
to cover the city. It is now hoped
to push the matter and secure the
election at an early date There ap-
pears to be little doubt that these
improvements will come.
