war. The issue was clear cut. The
people were acquainted in no uncer-
tain or vague manner with what
Grace wrote in the Charleston Amer
lean, for the publication of which
that newspaper was barred from the
second-class mailing privilege and
was not reinstated until the postof-
flee department was assured of the
resignation of Grace as it's editor.
The fact that the Grace faction
took the election-and there seems
to be no reasonable doubt of it
does not greatly alter the situation.
If Mr.. Hyde had been declared the
nominee, he would have had a ma
jority of one vote as the first count
indicated, or a few more if he had
been given credit for the challenged
votes to which he was doubtless en-
titled.
That Charleston will suffer from
her folly we have no doubt. That she
should suffer is nothing more than
fulfilling the law of che that soweth
to the flesh shall of the flesh reap
corruption" It is matter for deep
regret that the good people of Char
lesion must suffer for the sins of the
other element, yet we are forced to
believe that $500 loyal and true cit
liens of Charleston should have ex-
erted more influence than they did in
the election.
Charleston has received a large
patronage from the rest of the State,
and within the past three or four
years Charleston has taken on a re-
markable growth. Whether it be so
or not, the rest of the State is labor
ing under the impression that condi-
tions are going to prevail under the
Grace administration which will make
the city undesirable in many respects,
and the people of that town may not

THE CHARLESTON ELECTION.

While it is quite evident that the
Grace faction in Charleston was de-
feated, and that certainly John P.
Grace did not receive majority of
the votes, the result of the primary
is deep and abiding disappoint-
ment to the people of South Carolina.
Never before in the history of Char
lesion has an issue been so clearly
and forcibly presented as in the pri-
mary for the selection of the Demo-
cratic nominee for mayor. Whatev-
er the people of Charleston think of
it, the rest of the State is compelled
to believe that very nearly a major

aid recently. Race antagonism, says
Mr.. Byrnes, over the country is due
to incendiary utterances of would-be
leaders of the race now being circu-
lated through the negro newspapers
and magazines, and goes on to add
that in the South where the negroes
are alleged to<be ill-treated the self
respecting element lis making rapid
progress accumulating money, buy
ing property and educating their chill
dren." That the negro newspaper is
doing the negro cause untold harm is
evidenced in every issue we have
seen. For example, an Orangeburg
negro paper uses such expressions as
when white people become civiliz-
ed," and so on, and advising the ne
gro ex-soldiers to keep in practice"
There is no use for the negroes to
preach better feeling between the
races So long as the negroes them
selves countenance things like this.

THE TOWN DEMANDS SEWERAGE.

THE TOWN DEMANDS SEWERAGE.
1t is absurd to attempt to convince
oneself that town can grow and
compete with other towns without a
sewerage system. A town without
Sewerage is about on parity with a
home having mud puddles in the front
yard. Now that Bamberg has already
taken on new life, there should be not
a moments let-up until the town has
a system of sewers. Sewers not only
are demanded for the health of the
community, but by the spirit of prog
ress.
1t is to be sincerely hoped that the
paving of Main street is only start
toward the accomplishment of the
many things demanded by Bamberg.
We do not belittle the paving of
the business street. 1t is the finest
thing yet done in Bamberg, but the
day sewerage system is completed
will mark the biggest advance the
city has ever accomplished.
1t is argued that the cost will be
too much. Regardless of cost the
town should have sewerage. A man
does not regard cost when the health
of his family demands improvements
on his premises. He. does not hes
itate to go into debt to save his fam
lily; does not even hesitate to mort
gage his home if necessary in order
to remedy unhealthy conditions. Then
why should any citizen Of Bamberg
object to paying a small amount of
extra taxes in order to better the
health of the entire town?
It is probably, in some respects,
unfortunate that septic tark was
ever installed in Bamberg. 1t has
been demonstrated here and else
where that a great many of these
tanks not only do not better the
health of a town, but likely actually
are menace. There are several, we
understand, in town which are en-
dangering the health of tbe city, and
which the board of health may fini it
necessary to condemn. We do rot
mean by this that many of the tanks
in town are not satisfactory, for those
properly constructed have never been
the source of trouble. Those citizens
possessing satisfactory tanks are like
ly to feel that inasmuch as they have
gone to the expense already Of pro-
viding their homes with sewerage,
they should not be called on for fur
ther burden for this purpose.
We feel sure, however, than on Sc
rious reflection, there are no citizens
of Bamberg who would deny to 9TH
ers the benefits of sewerage because
they already have it themselves. This
would be selfish attitude. Not a
man in Bamberg would see his neigh
Dor suffer from hunger because his
neighbor is in less fortunate circum-
stances than himself. And he would
not, directly, see him suffer in health
if a few dollars would prevent it.
Bamberg is a small town, and ev-
erybody in it are neighbors, so to
speak. Where there is one man fl
nancially able to provide his home
with sewerage independently, there
are probably 25 who cannot.
Now that the start has been made,
let's 90 the whole distance, provide
the entire town with sewerage, and
thereby take decided step forward.

it recently going elsewhere. The &C.

produce similar result, would not
be entirely unwelcome by the better
element of that city.

Specialist in Entomology from M. A.

ships and in every early sown field
large numbers of Hessian fly larva
were found. Some fields are SO bad
lily infested that it is almost imposs-
ible TO find plant without at least
one of the little larva Of the fly.
On the other hand, fields sown late,
after the 25th, Of September, show
at the present no fly at all, but with
out doubt will become infested next
spring when the adult fys emerge
from the infested fields.
The warm September which we had
caused the fly to lay eggs later than
usual, and plenty of the larva have
Matched while some of the older have
entered the flax seed stage and are
ready for winter. There is only one
hope for Michigan wheat crop now
as we are informed by Mr.. Hahn that
the presence of the fly is general
over the state and that is, that the
parasites which ordinarily keep the
| fly in subsection will appear and kill
off a large number of the lava be-
fore they can emerge next spring as
adults.
A great many wheat growers have
not liked to SOW their wheat as late
as September 25th, but the ones who
have done so this year have fields
free from fly and would have good
prospects for wheat if it were not
possible that their fields may become
infested from early sown fields next
spring. A field of wheat on the farm
of A. d. Robinson at Berlamont
which was planted September 9th,
was carefully examined for fly and
none found, while fields all around
which were sown before September
goth, are badly infested, with the
plants all turning yellow as the re-
suit of the work of from one to
twenty little Hessian fly larva in
each plant.
Since the above was written a large
number of wheat fields have been
visited and plants examined for fly
and in general early sown fields are
badly infested with fly, the medium
sown fields are not so badly infested
and the very late sown fields are
very free from fly.

LAMAR ELECTRIC PLANT.
Lamar Begins Preparations to Con
struct Lighting System.

The city council and the repre-
sentatives of the Interm0untain r..
L. & P. Co. have at last agreed to
disagree in part at least and the
city has published a call for bids
for furnishing machinery for the
new city plant. After several
months of negotiations without
getting together the company fin
ally made its best proposition
which was SO far off from the esti-
mates made by the city's engineers
especially as concerns the old ma
chinery that they were asked to
make new proposition for the
transmission lines and real estate
and keep the machinery them
selves.
They insist that they can use the
old machinery themselves in other
plants and place value about five
times what our Junk men can see
in it. 1t is therefore probable
that the old junk that has furnished
Lamar more lightless nights than
any other city in the United States
has had in the past two years, will
now be moved to some other town
unless the Society for the Protec-
tion OF Orphans and Innocents
steps in and interferes.
1t takes some time to secure
machinery now even after it is or
dered and the city has begun ad-
vertising for the necessary equip
ment at once and will make the
earliest possible delivery one of the
features OF the contract. The other
