The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1922-08-24

The Bamberg Herald has printed
no tess than twenty columns Of read
ing matter reporting the county cam
paign meetings. So far as we have
looked over our exchanges, not an
other weekly newspaper in South
Carolina has covered the county
meetings so fully. Practically every
important utterance of every candi-
date has been printed for the infor-
ton of the voters. Not a single
statement printed in these reports
has been questioned by any cand1-
date; therefore the readers of The
Herald have had the record of the
meetings to guide them in casting
their ballots. incidentally, The Her
aid would remind the people of Bam-
berg county that this newspaper
printed more news about the county
campaign than all other weekly
newspapers in the southern part OF
South Carolina combined. However,
The Herald deserves no special cred
it for that. 1t was nothing more than
we should have done, and nothing
more than the readers of The Herald
expected it to do.

At the state campaign meeting
Monday at Walhalla, each candidate
for governor was asked the ques-
hon: :''In the general election of
1920 did you vote for Cox for presi-
dent and the Democratic ticket?'
Five candidates, Messrs. Mcleod,
Duncan, Laney, Cantey, and Cole
man, answered in the Affirmative,
while one candidate, Mr.. Blease, ig-
nored the question entirely. This
was to have been expected. In 1919,
Mr.. Blease told an audience at Rock
Hill, as reported by the Charlotte
Observer, that he could not vote the
Democratic ticket Mr.. Blease has
never denied the correctness Of this
report. Again, in 1921, after the
1920 election had been held, Mr..
Blease wrote to Joe w. Tolbert, the
Republican boss Of the plunderbund
in South Carolina, declaring that he
was a Democrat of the Jeffersonian
variety who rejoiced over Harding's
election and the downfall of.ideal-
ism. The evidence appears to be all
in. Nobody but blind man could
persuade himself to believe that
Blease voted the Democratic ticket
in 1920.

Social Meeting of Fidelis Class.

What proved to be an enjoyable
affair was the social meeting Of the
Fidelis class, of the Bamberg Baptist
church, which was held at the home
of Mrs. o. B. Falls on Friday after
noon. The hostess is teacher and
takes great interest in her class. The
home was very tastefully decorated
for the occasion and the members
were received at the door by the Off
GERS of the class Several guessing
contests were engaged in which
proved to be highly entertaining as
we'll as instructive. After the vari-
Gus contests had been completed the
hostess served delicious refresh
ments. About 80 members of the
class were present.

The county candidates ought to be
complimented on the high-toned
campaign they have conducted this
year. There has not been the slight
est unpleasantness connected with
the campaign meetings, or outside of
them so far as we know. The voters
NAV make their choice of candidates
in a calm and clear manner, and
there is no reason why Bamberg coun-
ty should not have representative
men in Office.

1t is probable that ramie could be

soils along the streams in the vicinity

extremely doubtful whether the work

the uncertain methods for preparing
the fiber and the very uncertain mar

No ProM in Rdmle,
Says Specialist

Readers of The Herald will recall
that some weeks ago O. D. Faust, of
this city, took up with Congressman
James F. Byrnes the matter Of culti-
waiting ramie commercially in this
county. Mr.. Byrnes, in turn, referred
the matter to the department of agri-
culture. Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace wrote Mr.. Byrnes that the
department did not have any bulle-
uins on the subject of ramie culti-
vation, but that he had had prepared
an article on the subject by one of
the specialists of the bureau of
plant industry. Mr. Wallace says in
his letter to Mr.. Byrnes:
'sWhile the ramie plant has been
quite successfully grown at number
of points in the United States, it's
commercial production has not yet
developed successfully because of the
high cost of preparation of the fiber
for use.'
It will be noted in the memoran-
dunn of the specialist that the ramie
plant can probably be successfully
grown in portions of Bamberg coun-
ty, and it is possible that with the
further development of the process
of converting the plant into fiber the
growing of the ramie plant may be-
come a profitable industry, although
under present conditions it seems
likely there would be no profit in
growing ramie here. The memoran-
dunn prepared by the bureau Of plant
industry on the subject for Mr..
Faust's information follows:
