itralB anil Mess, to Balcrcd at the Postoffice at New Uttr* i, S. C., as 2nd class matter. E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Friday, June 8, 1917. a uuiuusuTiua. We receiveda few days ago a let ter from Dr. E. E. Stuck which we are going to take the liberty of printing, "because it will then set the matter exactly right. Our statement was cor rect,-but it did not give all the facts, or the facts in detail, and was, there fore, misleadin| without any intention on our part to mislead. It wos a little strange that he should receive a no tice that his examination had resulted in his rejection for the training cam? as written on the applicaton that was returned to him, and that then the next day or so it should appear in the paper that he had been accepted, but our statement would be construed as meaning that ihe reconsideration was due to the fact that he had sent the papers to Congressman Lever, which it seems was not the fact. It is our purpose always co state the facts, and ?iC?Ci tv liliesiOCKl CHUU uy UUCVl BWIO ment or inference, and, therefore, we take pleasure in making this correc tinn T"Vt* Qtn/>V'o lotfar fnlIna'a ViVWl.

"My Dear Mr. Aull: I noticed in j your editorial in last issue of The Her-1 aid and News a statement regarding nay attending the training camp. 1 would like to make facts plain con cerning this. I remember telling you tbat I had received notice of not be ing accepted. This was on the 9th or 10th. I think though it was Thurs day morning of the 10th. I also men tioned that for my personal satisfac tion I wanted to know why I was not accepted, if physical unfit or what cause, and I was going to send, and #id send, a letter to Congressman Lev er Friday morning, asking him if he would investigate, but on Saturday \\r j ? ?

I afterwards received a rep] from Mr. Lever, after reaching camp saying he had no power to push the matter or something to that effect.

When I wrote what I did aboul ^ Chesterfield county and the farms 1 had seen and how much pleasure il gave me to have seen some of these . farms and the fine roads, I did nol ; Know mat mere was any citizen c i ; Newberry who had come from thai I good county. I am also pleased tc j know that at least one reader of The . Herald and News did no "skip" thai personal letter. And then I have heard , of some others who read it and liked what I said about some other things in it. It is always a pleasure to know ' that what you write meets approval. : A letter is published in this issue 1 from Mr. J. J. Davis who runs a farm ' in this county and who came -here | from Chesterfield. I am pleased tc ' print his letter. In addition to the i pleasure it gives that he is pleased with what I said about his formei county, I wanted an excuse to sa> another word, which I intended to saj ; but overlooked in the other article j And that is that there is some fin< I small grain in that county this year and I think the best oats that I hav? seen, and then ther? is an abundanc< l VR RIS d a notification from the hon mually per $1000 will he req follows: ilready in force, remittance t< hen premium is issued.

There are those who seem to think that it is treason to have an i opinion of your own, and that it is 4 ! disloyalty not to agree with everything! ; that is done or said by those who hap pen to be in authority. What we need i now is cooperation and not to quar 1 rel with those of our own people! who happen not to agree with U3, on every little minor detail. Just as you say, "some of the fel , lows who preach war every hour of the day" are no more loyal than som?i ' i i who do not make so much noise abo^t: I i j what we ought to do and what we j j should say. When we hear these fel- j ! lows talkin so loud we can not help i recalling what Mr. Kitchin said in his| speech against this country declaring a' | state of war: "It requires neither mor al or physical CDurage to declare war ! for some one else to fight."
