E. P. King, superintendent of the

quests The Herald to state that all

The Bamberg chapter, A. R. c.,
received yesterday sixty pounds of
khaki colored yarn. Everyone wish

The movement which has been ag-
itated for some time to change Co.
lumbia college from it's present To-
cation at Columbia to some town in
the Pee Dee section of the State,
probably Sumter, has been finally
and definitely killed by the college
authorities. We are glad to note
this, and are also glad that DR.. E. o.
Watson, of Bamberg, who is one of
the trustees, was very instrumental
in having the old college remain
where it is.
Mr.. w. G. Kirkland assumed the
duties of chief of Police of Bamberg
last Thursday, November 1st. Mr..
kirkland was chief of the local po-
lice force a number of years ago
and gave satisfactory service in that
capacity, but for the last few years
he has been in charge of one of the
chain gangs of the county. His
friends will be glad to welcome him
back to town and to-his old position.
Mr.. J. w. Jennings is no longer con-
nected with the city police force.

CONGRESSMAN BYRNES WRITES
MIR. TOOLE.
Hon. G. l.. Toole, Aiken, S. c..

! ; Hon. U. l.. IOOle, Alken, -. ". -5s5s@s
Dear Sir:-I have read your letter
in which you invite me to meet you
between now and December first In
order to discuss whether should or
should not be reelected to Congress.
The Democratic primary will not De
held until August 26, 1913, and q
man cannot file pledge as a candi-
date before May or June of next year.
Between now and then there may be
other gentlemen who desire to be-
come candidates for Congress- and.
should I meet you next week, know
! Of no reason I could assign for re-
fusing to meet the following week
some other gentleman who thinks he
will be a candidate next year.
| I believe at this period in our his
tory what time and energy the men
and women of this district can spare
from their personal business affairs
they are devoting to the advance
ment of the cause Of their country,
and they are little interested in the
personal political ambitions of men
who expect to be candidates tor once
next summer. They know that re-
gardlessl Of Joint discussion held now
by men who expect to be candidates,
that under the rules of the Democrat
|, ic party they will have inflicted upon
them next summer a joint discussion
by men who are candidates for Con-
gress. One such discussion in two
years is enough Therefore, at this.
time, ten months in advance Of the
primary election. I will not Join you,
either in joint discussion or in q.
newspaper controversy.
If, as you intimate, your invitation
is extended because you fear may
not be present at the meetings pro-.
vided for by the Democratic party
next summer, desire to say that l
have never failed to give to the peo-
ple an account of my stewardship,
and you can rely upon it that Will
be there. If you pay the entrance
fee and become candidate l shaH
be glad to discuss the matters re-,
ferred to by you,- point out the state
ments in your letter that are mis-
leading and those that are untrue
misleading and untrue, am satisfied,
because of lack of information, and
not from a desire to misstate them.
/ can also assure you that if any addi-
tional questions are then asked by
you or by others, shall answer them
and I may ask few on my own ac-
count. Respectfully, yours,
JAMES F. BYRNES.

SPEEDING ON THE HIGHWAYS.
MIR. Maytield Urges that Some Action
be Taken Against Recklessness.

The following letter addressed by
S. G. Mayfield, Esq, to Supervisor
Mcmillan has been handed to The
Herald for publication:
Mr.. L. P. Mcmillan, county su-
pervisor, Bamberg, S. C.
| My dear sir:-As one who travels
| the public highways of Bamberg and
who has the best interest of the trav-
cling public and his own safety and
that of his family at heart, am writ
ing you this letter to protest against
the reckless driving upon our public
| highways of automobilists.
"A few days ago the writer was
On the road to Denmark; two auto
| mobiles were coming toward him.
One was driven and occupied by a
lot of colored people, the other by a
/ half dozen white gentlemen. AS the
machine which the writer was in
| approached the one driven and occu-
pied by the colored people, the two
machines separated, going upon their
respective sides of the road, and each
| one was running at an ordinary rate
of speed, but the third machine oc-
cupied by the young white gentlemen
| cut in between the two machines at
a rate of speed that was terrific. Had
either of the machines that were
then passing swerved in the least,
there would have been a dangerous
collision and perhaps a dozen people
injured, perhaps killed.
THE speed limit allowed in the
county of Bamberg by the statute
law of the State is fifteen miles per
hour. Many of our people are run
ming at the rate of forty to fifty miles
and just as surely as 1t is continued
there will be accidents, injuries for
life to occupants of the automobiles
and perhaps death. Now, it is for
each family who is the owner of an
automobile to say whether or not
it wants the members of its families
injured or killed, or that members of
it's families should injure or kill 9TH
er people
Il think there should be at this
coming session of the legislature at
least one rural policeman, whose du-
ty it shall be to police the roads
against reckless driving of automo-
biles.
"The man who points loaded pis-
tol lat bystanders and fires at ran
dom, though he hits no one, is gull
ty Of an assault against each one to-
ward whom he pointed that loaded
gun, and if death ensues from the
shot the party is guilty of manslaugh-
ter. The person wro drives at terri
fic speed down the highways endan-
gering the life of all, commits an as
sault and can be punished therefor
by anyone who will prosecute. l
am writing this letter in order that
a check, if possible, may be placed
on the reckless speeding, and the
lives and rights of our people may be
safeguarded by enforcement of the
law. Very truly,
rs. G. MAYFIELD."
