Winnsboro is one of the few towns of any importance in South Carolina in which a camp of "'Sous of Confederate Veterans*' has not been organized. This order, though $ till in its infancy, has already become quite strong, and it is destined to do an inestimable amount of good. Tha object of the organization is primarily to secure and preserve impoitant rcc >rds baaring on the history of the late war, and their efforts will eventually result in the compilation of a valuable historical work. Thfi main- additional bene fits t) be derived from an organiz ition of this character will readily surest themselves. A camp should be organ'zed *t once, and Winnsboro should place herself on record as being in thorough accord with the spirit of the movement. We have no doubt that this sugg-stion will be received favorably by j those members of the younger generation who can claim tbe honorable distinction of being sous of veterans. The News and Herald wculd like to have the opinion of some of the veterans themselves on this subject. We feel nwc, however, that they all realize the necessity for, and tbe manifold advantages of such an organi-! zation as tin "Sons of Confederate! Veterans." \ la the Folic? Court.

The captain of tho Winnsboro team has made ever7 effort y to arrange another game wiili Batcsburg, but without success, a.ud it is pretty safe to say that the.;e two teams will net mont- mi the (lioniiirrl acrain tlrfi vpflf. A day or two ago the manager of the Batesbtirg learn said in a letter to the captain of the local team that a game could t>2 played provided the Winnsboro boys would consent to go to Batesburg again, and run '.he riek of having to pay their own expenses. He said that the gate receipts would be given to Winnsboro, but (he probabilities are that the amount taken in at the gate would uot be sufficient to defray the expense of transportation and board for ten men. Id case of rain there would be no gate receipts, and Winasb^ro would of course, be 1 in the hole" for the entire ost of the trip. The captain of the local team, very nmmntlr In nftll sider such au entbing proposition, but offered to guarantee all or the expense? of the Batcsburg team if tbey would consent to play a game on these grounds. Considering the fact that the I'atesbnrgers are under obligations to play here, it was thought that this liberal offer would be accepted as a nf ziAni'.n n<itoo]inr?y h Air off*". | uian^i yi wuicvi ww n v . v 7 I refused to come, and assigned no satisfactory reasons for their tefu:al.

Mr. Editor: Please do the Confederate veterans of Fairfield County the kindness to publish the following for tbeir information and Hu'dauce ju the formation of camps: 1. Section 3, Article VI, of the gen - -i- - - /*_ 11 erai constitution, reaas us iuiiuws;i A per capita fax of 10 cems for each | activc: member in good standing in | such camp and not enumerated in any other camp must be paid annually, 2. Section 2 under Article VII of the constitution of the South Carolina Division, U. C. V., reads as follows: In addition to fees due the general federation there shall be paid annually to the adjutant general of the division for the general expenses of .his division, to be turned over to the quartermaster general for disbursement, a per capita of tive corns for each active member in camp not enumerated in attv other camp. The above dues, making 15 cen:s per member in each camp annually, must be sent to Jas. G. Holmes, adjutant general and chief of staff, U. C. V., Charleston, S. C. This seems not to have been done by the newly organized camps, hence the delay in the organization of our regiment. No camp is recognized and enrolled until the membership dues are paid, bonce there are only two camps enrolled in Fairfield County to date, to wit, Camp Rion and Camp Raines. Let the other camps forward their dues s.s above, together with a roll of their officers and members. Every veteran who can go is invited to attend the division reunion at Greenville, S. C., on the 25th inst., whether a member oc a camp or not. Reduced rates are offered by the railway com: panics', to all alike, whether delegates or not, and any eamp can send up its dues to this convention with its roll and be enrolled there. If yon do this you caa elect one delegate tor every twenty niemberp, or if your cimp has not twenty members you can send two delegates and two alternates to represent your camp, provided yo i send your roll aud 15 cents per member.
