THEY OUGHT TO BE HUNG
SAYS SAM NICHOLS OF NATIONS
TRAITORS.
Congressman Stands Square to the
COlOrS.-ThOSe Who Go About
Criticising Are Traitors.

Union, Aug. 1S.-Speaking at pa
triotic mass meeting today Represen-
tative Samuel J. Nichols, member of
the House committee on military af-
fairs, said that traitor is the appro-
pirate word to apply to those who are
going about the country criticising
the governments war policy, and that
the people who are doing this ought
to be hung.
"Those who consider the war in
the abstract" he said, cor that it is
not associated with the nations full
purpose to maintain American rights,
are not with u.s.
This was Union county's second pa
triotic meeting and parade and the
outpouring of the people of the coun-
ty was all that could be desired. The
meeting was held in the city park and
was presided over by the Hon. L. j.
Browning, chairman Of the county de-
fense committee, by whom the meet
ing was called The speakers were
David R. Coker, chairman of the State
defense committee; DR.. H. \. Sny-
der, of Wofford college, and the Hon.
Sam J. Nichols, representative in
congress for the fourth district, who
spoke in the order named.
Mr.. Coker delivered an excellent
address and made most favorable
impression. DR.. Snyder's address was
the best that has been delivered here
since the beginning of the war. He
indicted the German government and
people for lack of international honor,
for inhumanity and for ruthless dis
regard for the rights of others. In
words of great earnestness and elo-
quence he drove home to his hearers
that this country is engaged in war
for the protection of human rights
the world over. 1t is speech that
should be delivered throughout the
length and breadth of the land provid-
ed DR.. Snyder himself could deliver
it.
Mr.. Nichols gave~an account of the
proceedings in congress during the
days Immediately preceding the dec
laration that a state of war existed
between this country and Germany,
told of the patient efforts of the Pres
dent to keep this nation out of war,
and declared that those who were 60
ing about the country criticising the
administration for declaring war were
traitors and ought to be hung.
This statement on the part of Mr..
Nichols, whose former adherence to
the Blease faction is we'll known, IS
regarded as very significant and caus-
ed much favorable comment. His
manly stand and declaration had
great weight and brought hearty ap-
plause from his hearers.

local examination board for army
service at Elloree from Branchville,
making the trip in automobiles.
The people of Branchville are inter-
ested in the location of the new roads
to be constructed under the State
highway law. Branchvile by it's ia
vorable location originally planned to
have roads crossing from Charleston
to Augusta, and from Columbia
to Savannah. An effort is being made
to change the natural location of
these roads. The people of Bamberg
want the road from Columbia to
Savannah to pass through their town
and also want road from Augusta to
Charleston to pass through the
territory, south of Branchville for
advantag geous commercial facilities
for Bamberg. 1t seems that one road
has been settled and that is one that
passes Orangeburg to Charleston via
Branchville.
The first bale of cotton ginned in
this section of the State was ginned
here Wednesday by Peter Byrd for
Frank E. Dukes. Other farmers are
getting out cotton for the market in
a few days.
The prospects for bountiful har-
vest through this section of the State
seems good. More fruit and vegeta-
bles have been canned than ever be-
fore. Everybody is looking out for
something to eat this winter. Gardens
have been given considerable more
attention than former years.

TO; HURRY LIBERTY MOTORS
Industry Being Organized to Turn
Them out in! Quantities.


Washington, Sept. l4.-Further
details of the Liberty motor, as re-
vealed by Secretary Baker, make It
appears that American engineers IN
designing an entirely satisfactory
power plant for battle, airplanes
have solved one of the chief problems
of the War Department.
Locked in the room of Washing
ton hotel for days at stretch, two
of the country's most eminent mec.-
hanical authorities, with the assist
ance of a score or more of consulting
engineers, finally evolved an engine
that possesses the !, prescribed re-:
ouisites of power, speed, servicea-
bility, minimum weight and adaPta-
bility to rapid production. The model
which has proved its value in numer-
ous severe tests, combines the most
valuable features of the European
machines.
Secretary Baker announced that
the o'.or had been found by expert
engineers and army officers to be sc
satisfactory that the work OF or
ganizing industry for manufacture
already had begun and that deliveries
soon might be expected.

and went home. 1t was also stated
that his sister had prepared his
breakfast this morning, so he would
have no excuse for remaining away
from the plant. When asked if he
had anything to say in his defense,
Jackson said he had intended to
obev the order of the court, but was
taken sick soon after leaving the
station house. The young white man
who had been arraigned first said ne
