FOUR HOLES NOTES. Correspondent Writes of the Roads, Crops, Personals, Etc.. As there is so much being said about good roads, I will say a little too. We can hardly appreciate the ease ayd comfort in traveling over a good road. I am in favor of roads, I am heartily in favor of good roads but I do not think there should be any discrimination, I agree with someone on the western side of che county, that there is too much time spent building ideal auto roads for the rich, for only the wealthy can own one. While people who do not live on or near such roads, has to contend with mud and holes near axle deep. I do think that the roads over which our faithful mail carriers have vo travel every day should be properly cared for. They serve the peopie, and not the fav ored few e-hould get a share of the benefits of good road*. Not more than three or four miles from Or angebugr a public road was started and worked a few miles !and work on said road was stopped, This was done some 18 or 20 months ago, If that road was finished it would be a great convenience to a great many people in going to Orangeburg. Well what can we do? We can remem ber this in the next primary. Cotton has improved some during the few days of sunchine that we .had some ten days ago, but what will be the result of the July Gale is yet to be seen. A very interesting meeting is in progress at the Cameron Baptist Church. Rev. G. E. Davis, pastor of the Baptist Church in Orange burg, is doing the preaching, and he is certainly doing some fine work. Miss Nettie Stroman spent last week in Cameron with her sister, Mrs. A. J. Amaker. A series of meetings is being held this week at Whltehouse Methodist Church. We hope the weather will be favorable. Miss Lottie Stoudamire spent a few days last week in Cameron with relatives. X. Y. Z. ENJOYED THE CRUISE. One of the Motor Boats Broke Her Propeller. The Charleston Evening Post says three of the four Orangeburg motor boats arrived in Charleston on Saturday night, tying up at the Carolina Yacht Club w.harf. The fourth boat had broken her propell er on a log, and wa sleft at High Hill Landing, on the Edisto river. The trip had been pleasantly made in spite of the rainy weather, and the members of the party were all in good health and spirits when the boats tied up at the pier. The eighteen-foot launch Eva, owned by W. L. Glover and M. E. Matthews first reached the pier. Iu this launch were: R- H. Jennings, Julius Ahrens. M. Matthews and Robert S. Kelly, of Charleston, who went up to Orangeburg to make the trip to Charleston. The Sprite, own ed bo O. W. Spahr and H. O. Daw son and James C. Pairey, whose boat suffered the damage to her pro peller, made the trip on this boat The third launch brought William :.McC. Walter, W. L. Glover and two cooks. Down the Edisto, through Dowho river and sound* Wadmalaw, New Cut, Church Fiats! Stono river,. Wap poo Cut into the Ashley was the route which the boats came. With a plentiful supply of good t.hings, a complete camping outfit, cooking utensils, etc., the' pleasure of the party was complete. The boats left Orangeburg on Tuesday, and every night the party left the craft and tied up on the banks of the river for a good night's .jest. The party will leave here probably Tuesday for Orangeburg. The trip back to Orangeburg will be again made by easy stages, and the yachts men will get the full pleasure of their trip. While here the" members of the party have cards to the yacht club house, and their stay is being made pleasant. CALHOUN COUNTY CAMPAIG.V Candidates Make Opening Speeches at Sanuy Run.

Tho public is cordially invited to attend these meetings. CAMPAIGN MEETING HELD IN THE COURTHOUSE OX TUESDAY EVENING. A Large Crowd Present, and All the Candidates That Spoke Made Good Speeches. Tuesday night the candidates for the various county offices made their first appearance in the race this year. The most exciting and interesting .races are for the legislature and cotton weigher, in fact there is* no race for any other office. There were ten candidates pres ent for the legislature, w.hile one sent a letter regretting his inabil ity to be present. Each of them were allowed fifteen minutes in which Lo explain their views. At exactly 8.30 ? o'clock Chairman B. H. Moss called the meeting to order. There was pot a very big crowd present when the first, speaker began, .but by the end of his time the house was well filled, and for the remainder of the meeting there was a large crowd present." The first speaker was Mr. John S. Bowman, candidate for the legisla ture, who began his talk by thank ing the voters heartily for their past support. He said education was the vital question, and that there were two things wrong with most of the country schools; first the terms are too short, and second t.he buildings are too poor. The last legislature passed a law enabling weak schools not having a term over 100 days to lengthen their term. To enable the schools to have better buildings he introduced a bill carrying. $20,000, from which fund schools of Orange' burg County have already secured nearly $2,000. He also said that drainage was another important mat ter and strongly urged that steps be taken in this matter. The second speaker was Mr. J. Rutledge Connor, of the Berkeley annex. He/felt privileged to address the citizens of Orangeburg county, he said, and a year ago did not think he would do so. He said he ran by the wish of his home folks. He ..sta,ted..Jbte .had no^pjatform_ as that institution .had been con?nu?hy abused, but he was hot afraid to state his position on any question. He promised to do his best if elect ed. . The next speaker, Mr. W. Clem .Griffith, said he always .loved a, man who could ,'get up. after , a fall and make- the race again. " He favors higher education, better schools and better colleges. . He'said there was no question about prohibition or lo cal option, the whole thing was whis key. . .He favors. local option: The law prohibiting the keeping of liquor . was making criminals of "50 per cent of the citizens, he said. Each express office was a dispensary, he declared. (Mr. T. P. Horger next came' for ward. He thanked the voters for their past favors. No man believes more in education than he, and he supported every bill for the better ment of our educational conditions. He said if a man attended to his business in the legislature.he could do the people lots of good .by killing bad bills. He said although he vot ed for prohibition, that if a majority wanted liquor they should have it. Mr.' James F. Hutto wanted to go to the Legislature to repeal certain laws?the fish law and some others. He is not in favor of increasing the allowance for the schools and col leges. He says there are some laws that make criminals out of ninety per cent of the citizens. Mr. A. J. Hydrick spoke next. lie was glad that Orangeburg was the place of the candidates initial speeches and made a' few remarks on the advantages of the city man over the farmers. He had long been puzzled over which was the greater evil?whiskey under control of the law,, or prohibition not enforced. He thinks prohibition would be better entorceli under local option. He said that if a majority of the peo ple of this county voted for a prohi bition governor he would vote for state-wide prohibition, but on the other hand, if they did not vote for a statewide prohibition Governor he would not. He said he didn't have any apology to make for referring this question to the will of the peo ple in this manner, for, he said, "its good Democracy to represent the will of the people." He said the report is going around that he tried to pass another lein law when the last one was killed. He pronounced this as false. ,Mr. D. H. Marchant, Jr., next ad dressed the meeting. He believes he can represent the people with ability, and if they think so asks for their consideration. He said the leading question was whiskey, and although he regretted its introduc tion into the campaign his position was local self-government. If a ma jority in this county do not favor prohibition he will fight It. Dr. H. A. Odom sent a letter ex pressing his regret that he was un able to attend, but that he was the only doctor in his town at present and could not leave his patients. Will serve no section of the county but the whole county. Mr. Miles O'Riley next spoke. He wishes to be elected now or never ?s this is his last time. La6f year he said the other candidates copied his speeches and ideas but this year he would not allow it. He said he was told by one man that if he did not mention the whiskey question lie would be elected, but he replied. * I would rather go home to my wife and babies carrying my honor and manhood with me than be your rep resentative by sacrificing my convic tions during a period of weakness." He read letters and figures to show that prohibition does prohibit. Mr. Bascom A. Shuler next spoke. He did the best he could for the STRONG FACULTY: The Orangeburg College Bids Fair for a Good Session. Prof. W. S. Peterson announces that he has for the coming year the best faculty that he has ever had. There have been employed fourteen teachers, among them being Prof. S. R. Mellichamp, who will teach Eng lish, Grammar and Rhetoric. Prof. Mellichamp is known all over South Carolina as one of the best feach ers in the- State. He has had many years sucoessful experience, and there are many men and women ov er the state when he has taught in days gone by. He will be a very valuable acquisition to the teaching force of the school, and it is to be I congratulated on securing his ser I vices. Prof. Edwin G. W.hite will be at the head of the Music Department. He is no stranger in this city, having been connected with the School as .'Music Director eight years. Prof. White left Orangeburg seven years ago, and has since been engaged in teaching in prominent schools in Georgia -and North Carolina. Mrs. White is a very fine musician also, and will have charge of the depart ments of Voice and Violin. In addi tion to these," a very fine assistant teacher of piano h.is been engaged. Prof. Peterson expects by far the largest attendance the coming year that he Has ever had. The people throughout the county are just now beginning to appreciate the value of the school, and each year the patron age from Orangeburg County in creases. The graduates of the school have been very successful in the various lines of endeavor and espec ially as teachers, numbers of them having positions with the high and graded schools of the State. Eveiy graduate of the school is employed. The school nelieves in thoroughness, and that success depends on doing the comm a things of life uncom monly well. Each year it is equip ping a great many young people for success. Campaign Schedule. The county campaign this year is a hard one and has been so arranged as to give the candidates a week be tween the speaking to rest up and Jook after their farms.

Will work for nro hibition unless the county votes against it. Thanked the voters for their past support. Mr. W. J. Zeigler was the next speaker. He said he read his speech las he was a farmer and no speaker. If elected he said he would work for good roads and the best inter ests of the county. Favors prohibi tion personally, but wants to let the people decide the whiskey ques tion. Judge Robt. E. Copes, who is of fering himself for re-election made a few remarks and we think that be favors traveling the political road alone. County Treasurer A. D. Fair, who is unopposed 7or reelection said it was a great pleasure to see that -he had pleased the' people. County Auditor Mc.Ylichael, who is also unopposed, offered a suggestion for the consideration of the voteis in Orangeburg. He desires to pro vide for the settlement of the bonds issued for the building of the H. G. Sheridan public school the same way as has been done with the bonds of the Seller's Avenue School, which he was pleased to state could be paid at once if the holders present ed them. Magistrate C. P. Brunson, who al so belongs to the lucky quartette, spoke very briefly. He thanked the voters for their votes, and especially for not running. The candidates for Cotton Weigh er then addressed the meeting. The first speaker was Mr. E. T. Edwins, who believes he can fill the office with ability and impartially. He was followed by Mr. Z. E. Gramling, who is offering himself for re-elec*ion. He thanked the vot ers for giving him the office and wished to say that he "liked it re markably well." He said he was not perfect, and any errors were of the head not of the heart. Mr. M. K. Jeffords opened his speech with a joke relative to how he felt in addressing an audience for the first time. He said the town didn't offer any inducemenls for farmers to bring their cotton to Orangeburg, and that a shed should be built lor them to hitch thei: horses to. Mr. John C. Kennerly next spoki. He says he does his best, but if the voters do not think he is com potent to elect one that is. Mr. A. W. Stroman wishes to be elected so that he can make a re cord of which his fellow citizens will be proud. He will serve with entire satisfaction to all concerned, he said. Mr. Jas. L. Weeks then spoke. Ho said he had never neard such elo quence from the candidates for cot ton weigher, that some of them ought to run for the legislature. Will do his best if elected. This was the last speech and was concluded about 10.45. Several times during the meeting the speak ers and audience were annoyed by loud talking and other disorders, but the meeting was on the whole comparatively quiet.

Its aim is to meet once a year to bring before the schools and the church all valuable methods of Sunday School growth and develop ment.
