1 J|te ||ecaiD hb0 ||ei3&. Entered at tlie Postoffice at Sew-j kerry, S. Cn as 3nd class matter. E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Friday, May 3, 191S. In seme communities they have formed the "limit club" in the purchase of thrift stamps. The largest V.r?1/};ncr or>v rvnp nprsnn is Dermitted V4.V/ r . ^ ^ to have is $1,000 which cost $SS2. That means the stamp will be worth the one thousand dollars at maturity. Why not form a "limit club" in Newberry. The drive for the sale of thrift stamps is going to begin in earnest now. Newberry has been pretty low down in the list of counties in the sale of the thrift stamp but j she is coming to the top. ?Buy Anotiier isona.? Mr. E. W. Robertson, the chairman of the Liberty loan sale for the State, phoned to us one day when we were trying to get a cut of the honor fla?r, that he would do his blankest to send it, and we did get it as a loan, but somehow he seems to forget that oro crtmp communities in New (11^1 c u< WW..V. ~ berry that were among the first to win the honor flag after it was announced. In several statements that we have seen from him in the newspapers giving the names of hamlets towns and cities that had won the t,AT,n'< Mr. Robertson seems to auaui- _ haye a note of every one except the ones located in Newberry, and we know that he has had the information about Chappells and Whitmire for we told him when he was going to do his "blankest to send us that cut. Hero Newberry is about double the allotment and the .State chairman does not even know it, and we only 40 miles away, while he hears irom every other pla"e in the State, wiiat's the matter?. Does the eonnty chairman fail to tell him. or is it the purpose not to mention what Newberry is doing? ?Btiy Another Bond.? Cooperation and pulling together with a single purpose should be the watchword now for all the people. No time now for the vaunting of lit) tie prejudices or small jealousies. ?Buy Another Bond.? Buy another bond and match Presi-1 dent Wilson. That is the slogan no\j: j If you have bought all you think you j can then' buy another and' deny yourself something else. It will not be near as much sacrifice for you as the "boys who are going over ana tnos3 who are there are making for you. Buy another bond. ?Buy Another Bond.? We notice that John L. McLaurin has again decided to be a candidate lor governor. He has been petitioned to run for the senate and for the governorship but has decided to take the* governorship. , ?Buy Another Bond.? The announcement of Mr. Lever for the United States senate means that either Lover or Tillman one or the other will be retired to private life. Both can not be elected. We are not in touch with the political pulse and do not know anything about the situation. The Herald and News is and always has been a friend of Mr. Lever and we had taken the position that if he wanted to serve his country best at this time that his place was in the congress wheje he now is, and since reading the letttr of Speaker Clark declining the appointment of Senator from his state to succeed Senator Stone, we are more convinced that the position was right. - The State is now sure to lose two important committee chairmanships unless Mr. Tillman should be elected. But Mr. Lever did not ask us to come into his conference and we guess he knows what he is doing. Of course if Mr.^-Lever should be defeated Mr. Wilson will take care of him and if Mr. Tillman should be dc leaieu ne win retire iu ins xreiiiu.'i farm where he says he wants to go. We understand that some of Mr. Tillman's strong supporters from this neck of the woods attended the Lever conference in 'Columbia, but then political friendships do r^t count for ' much with some politicians, they only f lookout for themselves and whenever it suits thein to turn loose they let go. And some of these were never known to be very strong for Lever. But politics is a strange sort of fellow and you can never tell where it is going to turn up or down. ?Buy Another Bond.?

Mr. Lever last night authorized the ' following statement: "I am a candidate for the United j States senate for. the term be<rinnin? i March 4, 1919. "In my opinion, the people of the State are entitled to have the position of the national administration touching the world situation present j ed from every stump in the State and j in terms which no man can misunderstand.

The most far reaching problems of an economic and social j character must necessarily arise dur ing this period of readjustment, the chief of which will be to hold the nation solidly for representative gov- ! ernment as opposed to a government built tipon the theory of socialism. In j the solution of these problems South , Carolina must continue.to have in the i i senate one whose Americanism and ! loyalty to the principles of Democracy as explified in the teachings of Woodrow Wilson, have been tested and proved to be 100 per cent. pure. because of all the States in the Union South Carolina is the most typically American.
