The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1922-11-02

An interesting question is just now
occupying the public mind in South
carolina, and it is whether the, circuit
and supreme court judges are to en-
force the law or the chief executive.
In our humble opinion, enforcement
of the laws of the state rests with the
executive department solely, this
power being conferred by the con-
stitution. However, we may be wrong,
as we are not lawyer; and just here
we will remark that the state would
be a blamed sight better off if there
were not so many lawyers in the gen
eral assembly.

Saws the Bamberg Herald:

says CuS bdluDGIS I1Gldlu.
The Columbia State, under the
heading, "Our Home Geography,
with the headnote, More of those lit
tle-known South Carolina place
names,' included Lemon (Bam-
berg).' Our friend fails to do us JUS
tice.\ There is no such place, or To-
cation in Bamberg county known as
Lemon Perhaps the State refers to
that magnificent lowland designated
unofficially, if not officially, as Lem
on Swamp But we won't stand for
it being dubbed Lemon. 1t is swamp
and we want the State to know it is
Just as fine a swamp as swamps grow,
and moreover, it is Lemon Swamp,
with capital So
The esteemed and sp1ightly Herald
will find that the Rand, McNally
Guide to South Carolina charges-or
credits-Lemon to Bamberg county
mail via Bamberg.
And, if we were a snapper-up OF
unconsidered trifles, we might add
that in Richland county is no news
paper yclept the Columbia State!-
The State.
Oh! Now we see. The State refers
to that supurb station oHthe B. E. &
w. railroad, and since the State pins
it's faith to Rand, McNally, perhaps, it
is not wholly blamable. The vener-
able Berry Benson, whose image
adorns the confederate monument in
Augusta, once corrected Webster's
dictionary, and was suitably reward
ed therefor, and while we are not ex-
pecting any reward, suitable or other
wise, it now becomes our painful but
necessary duty to correct the above
mentioned Rand, McNally. The
station indicated in the Rand, Nc
Nally map as Lemon" should be
Lemon Spur, and the archives of the
railroad will so show. And, paren-
thetically, we might add Lemon Spur
is just as fine spur asLemon Swamp
is a swamp. And-we accept the
rebuke of the last paragraph of the
esteemed State.

What does Bamberg need most
No doubt there are number of our
citizens who have their ideas on this
subject, and we would be delighted
if they would give our readers the
benefit of them. Write US a letter
telling US what you think Bamberg,
town and county, needs most just
now, and in this instance we will sus-
pend a standing rule of this news
paper. We will not publish your name
in case you do not want us to do so.
Let US have some ideas on the sub
iect.

The general election will be held
next Tuesday, and it is the duty of
every Democrat to go to the polls and
vote. True there is no Republican
candidate for congress in the second
district, but congress has been con-
sidering a reapportionment of the
representatives in congress, based on
the votes cast in a general election,
and this makes the matter of a full
vote next Tuesday an important mat
ter. The Herald hopes to see prac-
tically the same vote cast next Tues
day as there was in the Democratic
primary. Do not neglect this grave
duty.

Thursday, Nov. 2, 1922.

We have little doubt but that our
county and city officers will be especi-
ally vigilant during fair week, and
the blind tiger and boot-legger Will
not be permitted to ply his trade un-
molested and unafraid. This is i'm
portant and timely, for it is liquor
which causes trouble at such public
gatherings.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1922-11-02

The Democrats duty is as much to
vote next Tuesday as it was to vote in
the primary elections. The Herald re-
peatedly urged the Democrats to re-
,gister. and we now urge them to go
to the polls and vote. The Republl-
cans are going to cast every vote pos
sible Tuesday. If every Democrat in
the state would vote next Tuesday,
the Republican vote would be so in
fnitesimally small that there would
be no encouragement for Republican
candidates.

We have seen very little discus
sion in the press of the state as to the
idea of paying taxes on the INSTALL

that the city of Charleston has follow

good for the cities, why not for the
state and the smaller towns? We
