1,S0S,545 and in wounded 4,246,779.
Men to the number of of 100000
were under arms during the course of
the war, of whom about one in seven
was killed in battle.
The officers corps lost $4,000 men

The Herald has known for some
time past that under the reappor-
tionment act the county would lose
one of it's two representatives in the
house; we refrained from publication
5of the fact until it was enacted into
law. The law has been passed, and
s consequently the voters of Bamberg
county will vote this year and for
the next ten years for one representa-
I tive instead of two. The people of
the county, were not vitally interest
ed in the taking Of the census. 1t was
almost impossible to secure enumera-
tors to do the work. The Herald
urged that recount be secured at the
time of the announcement of the pre-
hminary figures, and a recount could
easily have been had if the proper
steps had been taken. We do not
know the exact deficiency of the
county, but we are advised that it was
mere handful. Nobody in the coun-
] ~ would mind losing a representa-
tive If it were shown beyond, Gues-
tion that the enumeration was accu-
rate. However, it is now too late.
Bamberg county is down at the foot
OF the list in the representation in
the house and will stay there for ten
years at least. ! 1t might serve one
good purpose, though, and that is
90 see that enumerators are furnish
ed for the next census.

Thursday, March 80, 1922.

When the state income tax law was
enacted, the legislature made a mis-
take in relying on the United States
government to help collect the taxes
sby furnishing information, and we
do not think it is the right principle
to rely on the federal government in
any purely state affairs. The nation
al government has intruded upon
state affairs enough without mixing
I'D the taxes. States rights are al
most a thing of the past anyway, and
the state government should not dc
anything to further concede to the
national government.

During the Argonne fighting vet

cover in a shell hole where replace

earth suddenly heaved up and SHOOK

antly:

General Parker and his aide were
travelling from one post to another
on inspection. The general noted
that the driver of the four-line team
seemed to know his mules well and
always addressed them by name.
"Get up dar, Tom! Frow yo'se'l
inter dat collar, Sam! Steady dar
Jim! Mahnd yo' step, General"
General Parker finally asked:
"How did you come to name that
mule General?'
"Well, sub, yo' see he does most OF
of de prancin' but mighty little of de
pullin'."

Verdict Against Town of Cope.

X. Myers was awarded verdict
last week in the Orangeburg civil
court against the town of Cope, fol
the value of parcel of land and
alleged damage thereto, the amount
awarded being $40. Mr.. Myers ask
ed for $500 and interest for about
ten years. The plaintiff alleged that
the property was never paid for by
the town although used as part OF a
ppublic highway, with a promise to
pay for it. A fence built into the
roadway some months ago brought
the matter to mead.

The four power treaty has been
ratified by the U. S. senate, and upon
ratification by the other powers con-
cerned, will become effective. Most
people are probably glad the treaty
has been ratified by the, United
States, the only doubtful nation con-
ceraed, inasmuch as the purpose of
the treaty is to outlaw war for a
while at least. While the people are
passiyely glad of the ratification, few
people really seem vitality concerned
about the matter at all, but mas
much as it is a step in the direction
of universal peace it should be graft
flying. We have always thought that
the people of the United States favor
any pact that will take war further
away, and we believe that the ma
jority of people would have preferred
to see this nation enter the league OF
nations for this reason. The league
of nations treaty was killed by the
United States senate, so far as Ameri-
ca was concerned, and the present
treaty is nothing more than an abbre-
Waited edition of the league of ma
tions covenant. We have an idea
that before many years are past this
nation will have entered into the
league as advocated by President Will
son. America ought to be in it. The
idea of "entangling foreign alliances
seems to have been entirely forgotten
anyway.

MOTOR CAR MAKERS ACT
TO CHECK AUTO THIEVES

Stolen car bulletins issued regularly
with car number. motor number and
owners names, Is one of the means
the manufacturer is taking to coop
crate with police bureaus throughout
the country and help owners recover
cars which have been stolen.
The plan Is used by Dodge Brothers,
Detroit, and indorsed by New York and
Detroit officials. Judge Fish Of the
Brooklyn traffic court describes it as
an excellent plan and one which
should increase the number of convic-
tions for motor car thefts.
A prominent police official states
that the cars which are stolen in De-
troit each year go not only to neigh
boring cities and farm communities,
but to points far removed. Cars which
are recovered in Detroit sometimes
have been brought there from the Pa
cific coast as we'll as from far-distant
eastern and southern cities.
A favorite scheme OF the shrewd
stolen car merchant Is to pass him.
self of as the representative of an
insurance company, in this. way ac-
counting plausibly for the low price
he is asking for the cars. The farmer
is considered good stolen car pros
pect, and II the stolen car broker finds
a fertile field for his wares in one
farm community, he may go back
again and again, dispostng OF his cars
Ia that vicinity. That ds why whole
deAts OF stolen cars arc sometimes
driven back to the cities by detec-
tives.

This is the keynote of the spring song.
1T should be evidence 20 the car
owners of the country that they must

whether it would be more practical to

FIFTY YEARS
RAILROAD TOWN

Fifty years ago, about this time of
the year or bit later, nineteen year
old boy walked out from Grand Rap
ids to the county line about five miles
east and accosted the engineer Of the
construction train which was working
just east Of the line. He introduced
himself as George Wood and told the
engineer, NJ. L. Poole, that he very
much desired to be the first person tc
ride into Wood County on a railroad
train.
Engineer Poole good-naturedly ac-
ceded to the request and told George
that he might stand on the pilot Of
the engine and thus be sure Of reaIiz-
ing his ambition Mr.. Wood says he
bobbed about on the pilot of that old
engine for an hour or more until the
rails had been laid into the county. 4
few days later, the road was built in
to the town, and it is the best recol-
lection of Mr.. Wood that it was on a
L Ilud. early III ~NON SIiIOCLg 4ot -, tH1l L
the first train pulled up to the Green
Bay depot. This line of railroad was
started on November 2, 1871 at Green
Bay, was then called the Green Bay
and Lake Pepin Railroad. The name
was later changed to the Green Bay
and Minnesota and later to the Green
Bay & Western.
That day, Mr.. Wood believes, the
school here was dismissed and the
school children joined the throng that
went down to see the first train run
into the city.
Before that time freight was hauled
