Criticism Unjust.
There has been criticism OF the

observer seems to be unmerited. The
board has been faithful In Its work,
and 1t has followed out only the or
$ders given 1t from the provost mar
#shal and other war department OF
ficials. The board had no voice but
to follow orders. Some people VINO

Sor something like that. The board
mas been as just and fair as it is
possible to be. and its actions should
be commended rather than criticised.
Some misguided and narrow mind
ed folks have criticised the board be-
cause some people have been exempt
ed because OF physical defects. The
members OF the board have nothing
whatever to do with this feature
Three doctors made the physical
examinations, and where there were

sentatives from the office Of District
Attorney Swami, Of New York, who
brought heN many documents seized
in raid upon Near ) New York

Means, who is charged with the
murder Of Mrs. King, testified at the
inquest that Mrs. King accidentally

RED CROSS WORKERS NEEDED.
Local Officer Election October f.
More Comfort Bags to Be Filled.

The Red Cross Chapter Of Walhal-
In needs volunteers to fill more "com-
fort bags" for the soldier boys who
Will leave Walhalla on October Sd.
Those who are willing to take a bag
and put in the required things, can
get one by calling at the Red Cross
room at the Town Hall.
An election Of officers Of the Red
Cross will be held at the auditorium
on October 4th, Mt o'clock All
members Of the Red Cross are urged
to attend and vote. All subscribers
to the fund raised by r. r. Jaynes,
Esq, for the Red Cross are eligible
to vote.
At this meeting the bylaws Of the
American Red Cross will be read and
adopted for the Walhalla Chapter.
If there are any who are not NOM
bers Of the Red Cross, and desire to
become members, they can do so by
entering their names with the treas
urer, viii j. Schroeder, at the Bank
Of Walhalla, and paying the sum OF
one dollar. Every one Ia urged to
join, not only because the Red Cross
needs the dollar, but because we
want your name and your co-opera-
ton in the work.
1t has been mentioned to me that
there are some who have not joined
the Red Cross because they were not
asked. The invitation is extended to
all. WE ASK YOU NOW. Become a
member, and lend what aid you can
at the Red Cross work room, or at
your home, II more convenient. Every
little helps.
The Walhalla Red Cross Chapter
has recently shipped to the national
headquarters at Washington regu-
latfon consignment Of finished gar
ments. There have been many who
have gladly given their time to this
noble work, some sowing at the
rooms, others taking the work to-
their homes. These contributions
to the work are greatly appreciated
by both local and national 'headquar-
ters. Mrs. j. a. Steck,

Moving Men to CAMPS.

From general orders published yes
terday we CLEAN the following facts:
South Carolina's quota Of colored
drafted men is 10,081, and 26 per
cent of this number are called for Oc-
tober 3, or 2,61S men,, Of this num-
Der Oconee is called on to furnish
AZ, Pickens Al. Anderson II, Green
wood 80, Greenville 90. These COL
ored men must be ready to respond
to call on October 3, but they will be
sent to Camp Jackson as transporta-
ton facilities permit.
The same rule will apply to the
sending Of white men to make up de-
ficiencies, and it is the intention to
have at the camp before October 3
white men to make up all
deficiencies. Hereafter, unless other
wise specifically ordered, all drafted
fast as they are certified for service.
1t is possible that colored drafted
men from North Carolina and Flor
Ida will be taken to Camp Jackson
for training, in which case the first
call from these two States and South
Carolina would approximate 5000
colored men, North Cardinals 26 per
cent bringing 4,153, Florida's 1,645.

"Bad Nigger'' Killed In Georgia.

men and three negroes killed during
fight over card game.
Williams was shot by ]. w. Webb,
deputy attached to the solicitor
generals office, after he had fired at
the deputy with an automatic gun, Of
German manufacture, which he had
stored away In his back pocket. How
Williams got the gun, or where, is a
mystery.
The wife of Williams told Sheriff
McCurdy that the negro was dad
man" and that he had recently come
here from Jones county, where the
