co City has been to the effect that
Luis Cabrera, Mexican minister OF
finance, would head the Mexican
membership of the commission.
Gen. Carranza's reply is not ex-
pected for several days and |oftlclals
here do not believe the commission
can begin sessions for two weeks at
least. The State department will in
sist that the meeting place be with
in the United States as the question
is not one of mediation.
The proposal to widen the scope
of subjects to be discussed by the
commission is viewed in administra=
ton circles as an extremely impor-
tant aspect of the situation.
Mr.. Arredondo issued today a sum-
mary of his advices from Mexico
City, saying that 10000 Carranza
troops were closing in upon Villa and
his followers in Southern Chihuahua
and that destruction of the bandit
command was certain. 1t is the first
official Mexican admission that Villa
still is, alive.

CROP CONDITIONS BAD.
Distress Reported Among Farmers OF
Williamsburg County.

Kingstree, July 29.-On account
of the continued downpours the crop
situation in this section grows worse
from day to day. Since the first of
July, 1927 inches of rain has fallen,
more than the average fall for six
months. Fields are ankle deep un-
der water in many localities and
where this condition does not pre-
vail the soil is so wet and boggy that
it is impossible to walk over it and
weeds and grass are taking the cot
ton that was left in the fields after
the recent severe wind and rain
storm. When it is not raining the
sun is so hot that farmers fear their
chances for any part of cotton crop
are practically gone.
Already considerable distress is
felt among share croppers and some
farmers who depend upon the lien
merchants to furnish them from year
to year. With prospects VI crop
gone the lien merchants refuse to
supply them further, as a result
many are having a hard time in get
ting the necessaries of life.
A representative of the federal
government was in Kingstree this
week to look over the situation with
view to furnishing government aid.
During this officials visit here he
was taken to the stores of the two
largest lien merchants to hear the
tales of woe hourly come to the
proprietors along with solicitations
for a little meal, meat, rice or grits.
Senator E. c. Epps has been in COM

WHEN TROOPS WILL MOVE.
Palmetto Regiments Go to Border as
Soon as They are Ready.

Columbia, July Pin reply to a
letter written recently to the war de-
partment, asking that the modified
units of the National Guard of South
Carolina be sent to the border at the
earliest possible moment, Governor
Manning today received the follow
ing letter from Newton D. Baker,
secretary of war:
"Hon. Richard I. Manning, COVER
nor of South Carolina, Columbia, S.
C.
"My Dear Governor Manning:
take pleasure in acknowledging your
personal letter of the 18th inst, on
the subject of the readiness of your
troops to go to the border, and their
great desire to see service there. In
reply thereto, I want to express ap-
probation of the spirit animating the
South Carolina troops, together with
the hope that their desire and your
own may be speedily realized. On a
recommendation from Gen. Funston,
commanding the Southern depart
ment, and in order to relieve that de-
partment as far as possible of the
work of completing the equipment OF
the troops of the several States, or
ders were issued July Is, 1916, to de-
partment commanders, by whom the
movement of troops to the border is
regulated, to hold all organizations
until they are completely equipped
and ready in every respect to move
l take it, then, that as soon as youl
State troops are completely ready
both as to strength and equipment
the commanding general of the East
ern department, who will be notified
by the mastering officer on duty ii
your State, will promptly issue or
ders for their movement.
with expressions of esteem anC
high regard, I remain
Every sincerely yours,

''Secretary of War;

; The campaign meeting in Bamberg
last Thursday was quiet and orderly.
Every candidate received respect
full and attentive hearing. There was
no evidence of rancor or bitterness
or factionalism. The candidates pre-
sented their claims in dignified and
gentlemanly manner, and with one
or two exceptions, there were no per-
sonalities INDUCED in. The people
of the State are tired of the old man
ner of campaigning, and they will
not stand for it any longer. The peo-
pie of the State can thank the news
papers largely for the manner in
which the meetings are held this
year. The demand for clean cam
paign or no campaign at all resulted
in better campaign.

munication with Representative
Ragsdale relative to government aid,
and since Representative Lever is al
so working for similar aid it is like
ly that assistance from this source
will be provided. Garden truck of
no kind is obtainable here now and
citizens are forced to use canned or
dried vegetables.
Yesterday was clear and hot, but
about three o'clock this morning an
other downpour of rain came and be-
tween that hour and daylight 2.62
inches fell. Black river rose 8 inches
during the night and is now IA 1-2
feet high.
All trains, fortunately, are now
running on the main line of the A.
G.. L. and mails are coming in regu-
larly, a condition that saves the peo-
pie of the community from spirit
of pitiable depression, such as exist
ed here the first part of the week
when train and mail service were
practically cut off.

Governor Manning is not popular
with a certain element of people in
South Carolina. Enforcing the law
does not set well with those who
have little or no respect for the law.
This is evidenced in the following
editorial paragraph from the Spar
tanburg Journal:
There were two classes in the
crowd that heard the candidates for
governor speak in Charleston day be-
fore yesterday. One cheered for
Governor Manning when he stated
that he had tried to enforce all of
the laws all over the State. The
other cheered another candidate for
governor vociferously when he said
that he wouldn't cram down the
throats of any people law they
didn't want. The latter is presumed
to have had reference to the prohibi-
tion law.
With which side are you going to
line up?

Common houseflies, it is said, do
lot toward spreading the infection of
infantile paralysis. Every house in
Bamberg county should be screened
against flies and mosquitoes. Mos
quitoes bring malaria and typhoid
and flies spread all manner of dis
ease. 1t has been clearly demonstrate
ed that flies breed in filth-and the
filth need not necessarily be on your
own premises; the filth of your next
door neighbor would answer just as
we'll for breeding places for flies as
your own. Indeed, unclean premises
should not be allowed in town at all.
We have known of towns where the
boards of health would clean up
premises where the owners would not
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1916-08-03

and the costs were taxed against the
property. Speaking of cleaning up
premises, the mayor of Newberry car
ried an advertisement in the papers
there as follows:
After the heavy rains of the past
few weeks, it is very important that
all pre- misses be cleaned thoroughly,
and l appeal to all citizens to have
this work done at once.
Extra carts will be provided to
haul the refuse away. Don't delay!
1t is equally as important in BAN
berg to clean up after the rains as it
is in Newberry. Let every citizen
attend to it at once, and see that the
grounds around his home are clean
ed of all refuse and garbage. We
feel sure that the city council will
provide extra teams to haul the re-
fuse away from town.

South Carolina can receive S71,-
8O7 next year from the federal gov
ernment for good roads. This is con-
ditioned upon the State appropriate
ing a like sum. Within the next few
years there will be available for good
roads all over the country from the
government about $75,000,000, as a
result of the passage of the good
roads bill by congress recently. This
measure received the unstinted sup
port of Congressman Byrnes, and the
Washington newspaper correspond
ents give him large share of credit
for it's passage by congress, all of
which he deserves.

Mr.. Robert A. Cooper gave an un-
qualified endorsement last Thursday
in Bamberg to the administration of
Governor Manning. In answering
the questions propounded by the gov
ernor as to what Mr.. Cooper would
have done in regard to the various
administration measures and official
acts of Mr.. Manning, Mr.. Cooper ad-
mitted that he would likely have act
ed the same as did Governor Man
ming. He differed with the governor
only on minor matters; and in one
difference, at least, we believe that
the people would stand squarely with
the governor-that of supplementing
the salary of the superintendent OF
the State Hospital for the Insane out
of his own pocket. In the light OF
Mr.. Cooper's admission that he would
have acted the same as Manning, the
question of why Cooper is in the race
is an interesting one. Is it MI.
Cooper's desire to promote the best
interests of the State, or is it mere
ly a personal ambition of his to be-
come governor? This is no time to
talk of gratifying personal ambition.
A man running for this reason alone
is not a big enough mapfor COVER
nor-certainly not for several years
yet. If Mr.. Cooper would have done
the same during the past eighteen
months as Manning, his friends may
reasonably suppose that he will do
the same during the next two years,
if he is elected. Then, what reason
is there for his election? The peo-
pie of the State know that Manning
has made a good, conscientious gov
ernor. Mr.. DesChamps says he has
been the best governor in many
years; Mr.. Cooper admits, to all pur-
poses, that Manning has been a gov
ernor as he would have been. Man
ming has been weighed and found
not wanting; Cooper is untried. Why
take chances?
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1916-08-03
We have heard of few people who

We have heard of few people who
are opposed to Governor Manning
because of the present insurance
muddle. We fail to see wherein the
blame, if any blame there be, should
be applied to the governor. 1t is a
conspicuous fact that not one of the
opponents of Governor Manning has
attacked the governors actions re-
garding the insurance law. If the
governors actions in this regard
were pregnable, his opponents would
not be so magnanimous as to over
look the fact.

GET RID OF HUMORS
Hoods Sarsapariiia Is the Medicine
to Take-Makes Pure Blood.

Dry, moist, scaly letter, pimples,
boils. and other eruptions come from
humors which may be either Inherited
or acquired through detective diSes-
ton and assimilation.
To treat these eruptions with dry
ing medicines is dangerous.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the old reliable
IN edicine. helps the system to dis
charge the humors, and improves the
digestion and assimilation.
Get Hoods Sarsaparilla from your
druggist. 1t may be confidently relied
upon to do It's work. It purifies the
blood tones the stomach, and builds
up the whole system. 1t goes to the
roots Of diseases. and its beneficial re-
suits are permanent. 1t sets things to
rights In the system. Remember to
ask for Hoods Sarsaparilla, because
nothing else acts like it and nothing
else can take it's place.

bluntly. Every man, woman and

AS the throng arose, Scoville closed
his eyes and for ten minutes prayed
for God to come down to Keokuk,

After he had closed his prayer, the
revivalist had the crowd sit down and
waded into it with his sermon. He
declared against cigarettes, calling
them "beastly. shrinking snipes, as
serted that while there might be a
lot. Of things worse than smoking
cigars" he knew "a lot Of men who
can't afford It," and took several tor
rid shots at Christian Science.

to take care of my little pains and

my heart"

added, "go down here some Saturday

another of the revivalists assertions.

How II Would Look.

Scoville painted word picture OF
Keokus as 1t would look to the naked
eye II "all these old boozers would cut

spending every dime for liquor would
