High Tax Keeps Capital
Out of South Carolina

A concrete example of the alleged
over-taxation ofandlegislationa of against
corporations in this state is present
ed in a letter received recently by
J. T. O'Neal, real estate and develop
ment agent of this city, from the
treasurer and manager of the Haw-
thorn Spinning Mills, Inc, of Glover,
S. C.. {
Announcement was recently made
that the Hawthorn Mills, Inc, was
contemplating the location of several
new cotton spinning plants, and i'm
mediately Mr.. O'NeaI took the matter
up with this concern in the hope of
securing the location of a mill in
Bamberg. The following reply was
received by Mr.. O'Neal from NJ. L.
Smith, treasurer and manager Of the
Hawthorn Mills, Inc:
"Your letter of May 9th addressed
to our president, Mr.. Thos. McCon-
nell, of Northampton, Mass, has been
handed to me for attention.
eve already have quite good 'siz-
ed plant here and while our proposed
new mill will be separate corpora
ton, as a matter of fact it is the
same people who own the Hawthorn
Mills.
"I happen to be a native South
Carolinian, having been in the cot
ton spinning business now for thirty
twoyears and knowall about not only
the locations in South Carolina, but
also the political conditions in this
state and the attitude of our legisla-
ture towards corporations, and l tell
you frankly another legislature like
our. last one will forever kill any fu-
ture hopes for the state in the way
of bringing in capital for develop
ment of our natural resources. am
a landowner as we'll as stockholder
in this and other corporations, and
do know that we are not receiving
a square deal in the way of taxes, and
have little zeal in asking outsiders
to invest their money in South Caro-
lima.
This new corporation is not as
big as represented in the papers, and
is not being built with the expecta-
tions of any large returns, but
through other reasons which make
it necessary to have larger output
and doubt if the new plant will ever
pay dividend.'
Mr.. O'Neal is interested in the
matter only as a citizen of Bamberg
desiring to bring in new capital for
the DEVELOPMENT of the city and the
resources of the county, and he says
that it is extremely difficult to inter-
est capital in any kind of propo-
sitionn to locate factories in South
Carolina under the conditions lmpos-
ed by legislatures of recent years.

ak Commission tol
be Here June 10th

Early yesterday afternoon Repre-
sentative J. Carl Kearse received a
telephone message from J. P. Der
ham, member of the South Carolina
tax commission, to the effect that the
commission had decided to come to
Bamberg to investigate local condi-
tions in order that the commission
may determine whether or not to re-
scind it's recent action increasing the
assessment of farm lands in this
county from $3.50 to s640 per acre.
Mr.. Derham stated that the COM
mission will be here on Friday, June
18th, and meeting of taxpayers has
been called for that date at 10 O'Clock
in the morning. The commission will
meet with the taxpayers and discuss
the matter of the increase of assess
ments.
Every landowner in the county who
has any interest in the matter of hav-
ing the order rescinded is invited and
urged to attend this meeting. The
commission appears to have an open
mind, and every farm owner will have
the opportunity of airing his griev-
ance before the only persons in this
state who are in position of authority
in regard to land assessments.

Report of visit to the Bambers
county Jail, made May 10, 1922, by
Asst. Secretary H. G. Brearley:
One of the pressing needs OF the
Bamberg county Jail is the screening
of the windows to keep out flies and
MOSQUITOES. Such an improvement
has been under consideration and
should be made before warmer
weather increases the number Of in
sect pests.
The general condition Of the jail
is satisfactory. The prisoners quar-
ters were neat and clean and the food
supplied is far above the average. The
spirit of the management is also
commendable.
For the further improvement OF
this Jail it is recommended that the
whites and negroes be separated as
far as possible, and that the ho1
water tank on the kitchen stove be
connected with the prisoners quar-.
ters in such a way that the inmates
can get a bath without having tc
heat water on the stove.

Brickle's S Garage
Damaged BY Fire

Fire early Thursday morning came
very near destroying the automobile
garage and repair shop of J. B.
Brickle on Main street, 1t appeared
once that the building and perhaps
the adjoining buildings would be a
complete loss, but the fire department
finally conquered the blaze, and the
extent of the damage was about $500
injury to the inside of the garage and
damage to the extent of about $3.50
to cars and other stock in the shop.
The fire started from a gasoline
engine about seven o'clock in the
morning. E. F. Free, who is en-
ployed at the garage started the en-
gine to fiji the air tanks when he
opened the shop Thursday morning.
In cranking the engine it "back
fred" setting fire to pile of old
tires stacked in a corner near the
engine. The tires blazed up quickly,
but the blaze was apparently put out
by the use of hand extinguishers, only
to blaze up again, and as the con-
tents of the extinguishers had been
used, the fire gained rapid headway.
In the meantime the fire whistle
sounded, and the fire department
turned on the water.
By this time smoke had so filed the
entire building that it was impossible
for anyone to stay in the garage.
Previous to this time, however, Mr..
Brickle and his assistants had sue
ceeded in getting most of the cars
out of the burning building. Two
new cars and several old ones were
inside the building though, through
out the fire, and were more or less
damaged.
The damage consisted of burning
much of the roof, which was covered
with rubber roofing material, and
damage to the roof framework. Mr..
Brickle carried insurance enough to
cover the damage, it is thought.

End of Contest
is Drawing Nea,

Every mail is bringing in replies to
the "Bee-Hive" picture contest; has
your answer been among them? Only
thirteen days remain in which you
may mail your answers to the picture
puzzle. Do not make the mistake
of waiting too late, as the contest
positively ends at the time specified,
June goth. All answers mailed after
that date cannot be considered.
A lot of people are getting lot of
entertainment out Of the picture puz-
zle. 1t is something new and novel.
Outside of the big cities, The Herald
has the distinction of being the first
establishment in South Carolina to
inaugurate such contest. They have
proved immensely popular in the
large cities. The Herald believed if
it afforded amusement and entertain
ment for the people of the larger
cities, a picture contest ought to
prove popular in Bamberg county.
Nothing is too good for the readers
of The, Herald. We do not put any
class of people on earth ahead of The
Herald readers.
Don't forget the rules. Some folks
have a tendency to want to look over
the picture, write down the answers
in their own way and fire them in.
But that is not the best plan. Read
the rules first. Understand the prop
osition. If you do not, although you
may send in an excellent list, it may
be impossible to consider your list
because of some overlooked rule. You
may readily understand that with
hundreds Of answer lists, it is abso-
lutely necessary to have some simple
governing rules. We have made
these rules so simple that they may
be followed by anyone.
For instance, no compound words
may be used. If you note an OBJ
iect, such as beehive, you must de-
termine if it is one word, two words,
or compound word. That is easy
by referring to standard dictionary.
If it is compound word or two
words, it cannot be correctly used.
In addition to affording you some
entertainment, the picture contest
will brush up your vocabulary Won
derfully. After June 20 there will
be some hundreds of persons in Bam-
berg county who know more about
the words of the language beginning
with "B" than ever before in their
lives.
And there are the prizes. We have
not said much about the prizes, be-
cause we think the prizes are the
smallest considerable in the contest.
Of course, a check for $50 will come
in handy for most persons, and the'
other cash prizes will be just as ac-
ceptable, we have no doubt.

Report on Bamberg
County Jail and Gang

Report of visit to the Bambers
county chain gang, made May 49,
1922, by Assistant Secretary H. c.
Brearley:
The Bamberg county chain gang
is in practically the same condition
it was last year when it was ranked
above the average for the camps OF
the state. Foreman Morris plans to
improve the equipment in the neal
future by building portable shelter
under which the cooking can be
done.
At the time. of this\visit the fore
man and two of the prisoners were
sick and unable to work, yet no ply
sician had been called, probably due
to the difficulty in reaching the camp,
Several other men had been suffering
with some malady that indicates that
either the water supply or the sanl'
tary arrangements Of the camp are
unsatisfactory.
In general the condition of the
camp was good, the disposal of the
sewerage being greatly improved
since the last visit by representa-
tive of the board of public welfare
The GANG still has no stove for cook
ing, but makes use of pots and and
open fire protected by a piece OF
sheet iron.
