WATERWORKS AGAIN.
We understand that there are a
few men?a very few, we are glad
to say?in Bamberg who are opposed
to increasing the bonded indebtedness
of the town in order to
establish an adequate system of
waterworks. We have not had the
pleasure nor the honor of conversing
with these gentlemen on the
subject, and consequently cannot
give their grounds of opposition,
but we would be very glad if they
would, through the columns of this
paper, give the people their reasons
for opposing such a necessary public
enterprise. We hope they will
do so, and our columns are hereby
opened to them.
We cannot see how any level
headed business man?a property
owner?can be in favor of letting
his property remain without fire
protection. There is not a property
owner in Bamberg who would not
save money in insurance rates if
waterworks were built. As we have
remarked before, the rate of insurance
in force here now is almost
prohibitive, and it is getting higher
as time goes on and fires increase.
It naturally follows that the companies
will withdraw from the town
if this thing keeps on. Insurance
companies are in business for the
money there is in it, and it is certain
that they are not going to lose
money by insuring property in Bamberg.
We are in favor of waterworks for
the sake of economy, if for no other
reason. There has been enough
property burned in this town in the
last few years to build a fine system
which would give us adequate
fire protection, to say nothing of
the convenience. Of course the establishment
of waterworks would
help the town in other ways?by attracting
a desirable population, etc.
?but we put it on the most sordid
ground: that of self-interest. No,
property owner's increase in taxes
would anything like equal his saving
on insurance. This touches
the pocket nerve?it would pay, and
pay each man directly. Let us
- v i i 1
stand m onr own lignu no longer,
lint let ns go to work at once, taking
the necessary steps to bring
about this much-to-be-desired result
We
firmly believe that our citizens
are in favor of bonding the town to
build waterworks, and we* believe
if an election was held to-morrow
cn the question of issuing bonds,
that a majority would roll up in
favor of bonds. We call upon our
city council to order an election.
Surely the people should be heard
on the subject, aud they should be
given the privilege of saying whether
they wish waterworks or not.
Gentlemen of the city council, give
us a chance to decide the question.

Dear Sir:?In a recent issue of

Disbnrrea.
The world is full of mystery and
the greatest mystery is man. Re- 1
cently someone has advanced the
theory that poets are to a degree in
sane. The theory, we think, would
lie with equal force against all men
of genius. For too often do we find
the possessor of rare gifts and talents
involved in damaging difficulties
or running off the right road of
rectitude into the bypaths of ruin
and disaster.
The recent irretrievable fall of G.
W. M.Williams, of Bamberg county,
furnishes a case in point. An able
lawyer, an accomplished orator, a
magnetic man, he won the admiration
of his fellows and acquired an
enviable popularity, Proud of his
attainments, his people honored him
more than once with a seat in the
T.ocriel atnro ar?/l of u fimo whpn t.n
OJVglOtMUUXV/ WJIU i?V M tlUlV < <i\ *? wv
i be a member of the General Assembly
of South Carolina was an
honor to be coveted. His talents
won him prominence and it does
seem should have saved him from
dishonor.
But he is down. The career be
gun in honor is ended in disaster.
The opportunities which were his of
making life a sublime success have
been lost and hope, the inspiration
of effort has vanished forever.
The beginning of the end with
Williams dates back several years.
His questionable practices first became
numerous in Barnwell county.
In one instaut he was brought before
the court and tried upon grave
charges, the result being that he was
adjudged guilty. He then went
to Florida and from that State to
Georgia, where he was convicted of
cheating and swindling and sentenced
to a term on the chaingang,
with the alternative of paying
a fine. He paid the fine and
then came back to South Carolina.
He continued to practice his profession,
having an office at Bamberg
and subsequent]^ at Denmark.
The Bamberg Bar Association,
being convinced of his unworthyness,
sometime ago instituted disbarment
proceedings against him. The case
was recently heard before Judge
Benet, by whom it is '-ordered, adjudged
and decreed"?
"That the respondent, Gilbert W.
M. Williams, some time attorney at
law, be stricken from the roll of attorneys
entitled to practice in the
circuit courts and probate courts of
the State of South Carolina, and,
that he be, and hereby is, forbidden
forever hereafter to practice as an
attorney or member of the bar in
said courts."?Press and Standard.
It seems that certain politicians
in Orangeburg county, who would
like to keep Tom Brantley out of
the race for Congress next year, are
making an effort under the rose to
have him sent to the State Legisla
ture. It would be an excellent way
to sidetrack Brantley if he would
only take the bait. We are satisfied
that he duly appreciates the great
interest which these friends of his
f take in trying to crown him with
legislative honors. Everything considered,
he developed in his canvass
of the district last year a surprisingly
strong following, and, oh, he
would make a most excellent Kepre
sentative in the Lower House of the
General Assembly of South Carolina.
How one's friends will multiply
among his enemies when he
proves himself capable and independent!
How anxious his newfound
friends are to serve him, especially
when their own selfish purposes
are advanced thereby.?Press

NAME THE LAWYER.
Grave Charges Against a Member of
the Walterboro Har.
Editor EM. II. DeCamp, of The
Ledger, a semi-weekly newspaper,
published at Gaffney, Cherokee
county, South Carolina, in last Saturday's
issue of his paper takes occasion
_to. give his opinion of lawyers
in general and a certain Walterboro
attorney in particular. We think,
in justice to the honest members of
the bar here, Editor DeCamp should
publish the name of the lawyer
against whom he prefers the charges.
i -1 _
Lne arncie is as ionuws;
G. W. M. Williams, a lawyer of Denmark,
S. C., and a prominent politician
and a member of the Legislature from
Barnwell county, has been disbarred, by a
decision of Judge Benet, from forever
hereafter practicing his profession in the
courts of South Carolina. The charge of
dishonesty in handling money for clients
was brought against him by the bar association
of which he was a member, and
the charge being sustained, the judge decided
as stated.
We hope this case is the forerunner of
other similar ones, or of a higher standard
of honesty among the lower class of lawyers.
We do not say that the profession of
the law does not contain as many hightoned
gentlemen in proportion to number
as other professions, but we do say
that it contains many unworthy men in
this State, who ought to be serving terms
in the penitentiary. The public little
knows how much money is stolen by
these sharks and deadbeats from confiding
and helpless clients. We have been
told that in the lower part of the State
the practice has been notoriously common,
and we have a personal experience
along that line, which would incline us
to believe the report is true.
onrn XI'A cpnt atl flppount

for sixty dollars to a lawyer at Walterboro
for collection, and we have never
been able since to hear a word directly
from him. After trying to reach him by
letter for perhaps a year, we wrote to the
man who owed the account to know if he
had ever paid the account. He replied
that he had paid our lawyer $47.50 of the
account and held his receipt for the
same. We then informed the lawyer of
the fact and threatened to prosecute him
if he did not make an immediate return,
bnt the threat did not move him. We
reported to the solicitor of the circuit arid
asked for advice as to how to proceed,
and were informed that \ye should have
to go to Colleton and swear out a warrant
against him before the solicitor could take
hold of the case. This implied further
that we should have to attend court at
Walterboro for two or three terms as
prosecuting witness at our own expense,
and after spending perhaps $150 in efforts
to get $47.50 and to get, the scoundrel
punished, be at last defeated on a legal
technicality, and suffer all the punishment
ourself.
We finally concluded, just as many
another wronged client concludes, that
we had better lose the account than to
spend three times a greater amount in
trying to recover it.
Yet the name of that lawyer stands on
the reference books as that of a reliable
attorney, who makes collections a specialty
and prompt returns a matter of conscience.
About the same time we sent another
account for sixty-five dollars to a wellknown
lawyer in another part of the
State, who assured us that he conld collect
it without any trouble. We kept after
him for about two years, and finally
received a check from him for $25, without
explanation or comment. This is the
last we have heard of him, though we
have repeatedly written and begged for a
final return. We suppose he has charged
us $40 for collecting the account of $65.
In 1895 we placed a considerable batch of
accounts in the hands of still another
lawyer in a different part of the State,
who made several partial returns and then
ceased to pay any attention to our requests
for a final settlement. For the
last two years we have not had a word
directly from him. Such conduct on the
part of lawyers unjustly Dnngs repruaca
upon the entire profession, and the men
who practice it ought to be discarded by
the profession as the bar association of
Bad well discarded Williams. They are
drawbacks and dead weights?a disgrace
to the profession and^to humanity.?JPress
and Standard.

up the honest members of the

now we are concerned to know what
they are going to do about it all.
