When Gov. Manning retired from
office last Tuesday South Carolina
lost one of the best governors she
has had since the close of the civil
war. Gov. Manning has disappoint-
ed his enemies and surprised his
friends. His administration has been
one of activity and accomplishments.
He went into office under circum-
stances that would have handicapped
the efforts of most men, but he took
up his duties as the state chief ex-
ecutive with an earneStness and de-
termination that not only astonished
his critics but won the unbound ad-
miration of his friends and support
ers. Many permanent reforms that
have already proved of great value
to the state, were inaugurated under
the Manning administration. He has
been the governor of the whole peo-
pie, and his efforts and energies have
been directed toward the uplifting of
the masses and the industrial ad-
vancement of the commonwealth. AS
a war governor he has measured up
fully to the expectations not only of
his home people. but of the nation as
a whole and he leaves behind him a
record that will add lustre to South
Cardinals name when the solemn
history of the world war is written.

Before the end of 1919 three mil
lion men who gave up jobs to
make the world safe for democracy
must find vocations in civil life. To
distribute these men over the nation
and provide employment for them
without disturbing labor conditions
is huge task which has been un-
dertaken by the government through
the Employment Service Bureau"
The returning soldiers are not asking
for charity-what they 'Jant is work
The task of demoblizing this vast
army of men is almost as great as
the task of mobilizing them. In many
respects it is more serious in its con-
sequences. The public must come to
the aid of the government. Men re-
turning from the service must be Civ
en- the preference. They are entitled
to that much consideration from the
men who did not go. They are entitl-
ed to the best the country is able to
give them. Begin now to plan some
way to provide employment for the
boy that you know will soon be home
1t is a great task the nation has cut
out for itself, and every man IS ex-
pected to do his part.

What IS lie matter with Dillon
lighting plant? The lights are so dim
that it is difficult for one to read
without the aid of an oil lamp. Many
households are using the old style
oil lamp at the evening meal. The
public has kicked until it is sired and
now it is beginning to ridicule. One
local wag says he has to strike
match to see how 10 turn out his
lights at night. Another says he is
going to open a store for the sale OF
optical goods and make fortune.
The streets are in darkness and those
who venture out at night must have
flash light or lantern. Dillon cannot
continue to put up with such service.
If the plant has seen its best days
the citizens should get together and
do something. The Herald has al
WAYS advocated the transmission line.
We do not DelleVe tne loWu Will Se1
a satisfactory service until it con-
meets up with some power company
whose business is to give the pub
lie the service it wants. We have had
opportunities in the past to connect
up with such companies and if it is
not too late negotiations should be
opened up again. If the companies
nave no more power to sell the next
best thing to do is to improve the
municipal plant. Something will have
to be done and the sooner it is done
the better for the town and its cit
liens.

The main object of our trip to
Lumberton was to make a call on
Rev. Baxter McLendon, who is con-
Quoting a meeting there. Because
of the weather, the big tent the
evangelist uses at other places
would be uncomfortable, and for the
purposes of this meeting'he is using
great brick warehouse, capable of
seating not less than five or six
thousand people. We dropped in on
an afternoon meeting when the con-
gregation was below 1000; but the
people in 'ttendance said that the
crowds at night meetings filled
the build to capacity, and that
the interest was very great. There
were all kinds of people in attend.
ance, including the wealthiest and
most representative people Of the
town and surrounding country as
well as many Croatans, among them
no doubt, descendants Of the Low
ries.
But getting back to Henry Berry
Lowrie. Senator McLaurin told me
why he was never captured. He kill
ed himself accidentally. 1t was on
February 20, 1872. The gang had
raided Lumberton the night before
and carried away the sheriff's safe,
containing $4,000 in cash. They
made their way down to the house
of Tom Lowrie, near Scuffletown,
and began fixing their firearms in
preparation for a pursuing party.
While Henry Berry was preparing
to draw charge from his shotgun
the weapon slipped in his hand in
such manner that the hammer
struck against the sill of corncrib.
The load was discharged and the
load took off good part of Henry
Berry's head. The surviving mem
bers of the gang buried the body un-
der the corncrib for the night and
later carried it off into the swamp
! for permanent burial. 1t was not
until years afterward that the facts
of the occurrance were made known.
the members Of the gang having
held their tongues in the meantime
to keep anybody from being able to
claim the $4,000 reward offered by
the state.
Along the whole fifty miles be-
tween Bennettsville and Lumberton,
there is now only one suitable place
for holdup. with good chance for
getaway. This Is at that same
old Barnes's bridge. The bridge
crosses the Little Pee Dee river in
the midst Of dense swamp at the
only crossing place for a good many
miles in either direction. 1t is said
that the Lowrie gang used to kill
travellers at the bridge, weight their
bodies down with stones and throw
them into the river never to be seen
again.
Bennettsville has suffered terri
bly, from the influenza. did not get

close relative. And in passing
Through the town of Tatum to the
east of Benrettsville, where there
were half dozen stores, 1 was told
that the proprietor Of each and er-
cry store had died of influenza.
On Christmas afternoon l walked
out with Senator McLaurin to the
Bennettsville cemeteries, two OF
them close together -one known as
the old cemetery and the other as
the Mccall cemetery. The latter
started as a kind Of. land speculation
enterprise. There were many new
made graves in both cemeteries,
plenty of evidences Of the ravages Of
the influenza.
In negro cemetery behind the
"Old" cemetery, we ran across a
rather peculiar sight - that OF the
new made grave of an adult negro,
covered with bottles, pill boxes, band
ages, etc. Sticking at the head Of the
grave was castor oil bottle that had
originally held a quart. The neck
of the bottle had been stuck in the
grave and the remaining oil had sat
urated the earth. There was cost
ly hypodermic needle, pneumonia
cure" different kinds Of pills, and
various other things Of like nature.
Inquiry developed that there had
been stories to the effect that the ne
gro wife had allowed the husband to
die of neglect and these token had
been placed on the grave as eviden-
ces Of the attention the deceased had
received.
Senator McLaurin is still beliey-
er in better prices for cotton. He
+ has the greater part of three crops
on hand, and he is not inclined to
sell until the price gets at least to
somewhere in the neighborhood OF
forty cents, which he believes will
! be realized before the next crop is
gathered. At the same time, how
ever, he believes that the days of cot
ton growing in Marlboro are fast
reaching their end. He thinks that
the boil weevil will be getting in its
work to the windup soon, and be-
cause of that belief, he is doing all
he can to induce the people to give
more attention to tobacco raising.
He and his son. Thomas McLaurin,
have recently secured quantities OF
tobacco seed that they are distribu-
ting along with instructions as to
planting, cultivation and curing. etc..
and are trying to get the farmers to
go in for the raising Of million
pounds Of tobacco so they can at
once have q home market. They
used a page advertisement in The
Pee Dee Advocate not long ago in
the promotion of their propaganda
and they are neglecting no opportun'
ity to push the work directly with
individuals, By means Of argument
and persuasion.

''Who is responsible for the poor
: railroad service the public is get
ting?" is the question one hears on
every hand. Is. government control
failure or is there a systematic eff
fort on the part of the railroads to
disgust the public with government
ownership? These are questions that
will have to be answered sooner or
later. The public is long-suffering,
but once the public is aroused it will
be hard to quiet until the blame is
placed where it properly belongs.
The public was willing to put up with
anything while the war was on, but
the war is over, and now the public
is demanding service. Somebody is
responsible and somebody is to
blame. The United States mail SER
vice is one Of the best business organ
isations in the world. 1t gives better
service than any organization in Am
erica. 1t Is owned and controlled by
the government. So perfect is the pos
tai system that if a letter going even
a short distance is routed the wrong
way the matter is reported to head
QuarteEs and the employee RESPONSE
Bile for the mistake receives a calling
down from the government. But
trains continue to run late. freight
is lost or delayed in transit, legiti-
mate claims remain unpaid for
nsonths and still nobody is held re-
sponsible. Employees themselves are
indifferent or profess absolute ig-
norance as to matters of ordinary de-
tail, and the public finds it extreme
ly difficult to obtain the information
to which it is entitled. These are only
a few Of the troubles and annoyances
the public is having to put up with
at the present time. But the public
is getting impatient. 1t is beginning
to ask questions and one OF the ques-
tioas Is, Who Is responsible for this
state of affairs!" II it is the rail
roads themselves the public wants
to know it; if it is the government the
public wants to know it. The public
Is entitled to this information, and
if conditions do not improve the pub
lilo is going to find out who is re-
sponsible for the hardships and in
conyeniences it is forced to submit
to In exchange for the hard-earned
dollars it is paying in increased pas
senger and freight tariffs.
