Spi? ||fnii& mi jeM." Entered at the Postofiice at Serc-1 a Wrry, S. C~ as 2?d class matter. j n t. H. AULL* EDITOR. j it Tuesday, July 16, 1918. j o REGISTER, t o The books for the registration of j , voters for the primary election !)? j v August have been in the hands of the \.h 1 democratic clubs now for several, ^ weeks, and the voters have been' y warned that if they want-to vote theyj must place their names on the club! j. roll of their clubs. We have been j. running a notice to this effect now j c for several weeks, and the notice in-J dicates as a rule where the book may oe ound. if you want to vote in tne v primary it is imperative that your j ^ name be on the roll of your club. and a you must put it there yourself. Don't j r forget this and attend to it at once, j ^ And it must be placed there bv the . ^ ]ast Tuesday in this month. Xot after ^ that time, and you will have no ex-: cuse because you have been put or.; notice. If you will look in this paper ^ you will find where the registration book for vour club mav be found \ n l o. immi ! a We. publish at the request of the J tl citizens ot uaurens tne resolutions, endorsing the candidacy of Mr. X. B.; i< Dial for the sena.te. And the report! is taken from Mr. Dial's home paper.; and a synopsis of the many eloquent; c. tributes to the high standing and j a strong character and fine work of Mr. j ^ Dial is also printed. j g We have known Mr. Dial for a good , s many years and have always been j " fond of him. He is really a vei^- ^ clever and genial gentleman and t< IrtVAc a erxv? ctnrv ! ac Mr. Dial was a candidate for the J "w senate six years ago, and has been in , tl the present race for about six weeks, | c or something like that. The thought i c. that occurs to us at this time is, why j did not these neighbors and friends j b find ^out all about SMr. Dial before this ' tc moment, and pay tribute to his sterl- I d: ing qualities and his abilities before,! ai when Mr. Tillman was in the race, tl1 this year and .six years ago. Won- j d< der if -thev have just awaked to the! ai realization of the aibility and stron? | w character of their fellow citizen, or ! ar if it never occurred to them ibefore; t?* this moment that it would be a goodj M *4 .* thin? for them to do. We say this in J ov no unTvind spirit -toward Mr. Dial. J ?t beanse we bear none, and further-'pi . i more we like to see a man's neign- co bors and county stand <bv him when th . he is seeking preferment, and not be Jo aiwavs knocking and kicking him. Tt ar *as been c^r invariable rule. Ws | ad r-?r> imagine but in one con- j vc dition where it would -be otherwise j r,? w.th us even now, but the question ; li< is, xvhy did not these gO">a citizens ?r this thins: Ions: aso Whv wait to this moment. If -Mr. Tillman lia<! "j. lived would they have given this en- jf thusiastie endorsement, and if they, B] would why did they wait? And wasn't j us Mr. Dial just as 2'ood and bis: and j it strong then as he is now? "Wonder. 01 if this thought ever occurred to Mr. I re . Dial. It is the right spirit for one's j h< -neshbors and fellow county men to j of ctanri ihv him. and we lilre to see it, j el and' we Ii"ke to see the thine done I tie when the man is alive and when he j needs the help of his fellowmen. Somehow 'Newberry has never i pi stood by its county men as it should or "have. Just why we do not know, fa The Herald and News and its editor p< has the record of always doing so w "Even when the personal relations fo were not of the friendliest, we have TV stood by our men. A gentleman of j est this old town told us on one occasion, cii ^'hen we are discussing the question, st that the reason was we had too manv A; K+n.+ nnmnTi <rtr? fhrtco TuTm 1 TY>fl T>P.fll Tit zslaicdiiicu* uivcv " ? w ? ~ . ,j . thev vt^tp, orif? whori o^*5 of them had ! i:i a chance of a position of State or na- j a] tionwide importance that the others . would figfat him. because they felt hi-; J ac success would lessen theirs in the j future.

Don't forget it. either. MoLanrin is worried because h ays that the "press of the State'" a whole has accepted the "proof "hich he claims to have given as t lease deserting the party, but thi ame "press" has endeavored t smudge" and pass over the "proof rhich he claims to have submitted a :> Cooper.

This "press of the State ) which he alludes is onl>T like th rowning man grabbing at straw= id will take hold of anything if i links that it can be used to th< ?triment of some political advers y, and this "press" does not car: ho it smears with the MaLaurin dir id regardless of any semblance o nth. It is unfortunate, but true cLaurin stands condemned 'by hi" m words and confessions as a mar t.erlv destitute of the first princies of honor, and of course no one uld be expected to believe anything at he says.

You know, even .so old and famous ; a place in Newberry county as King's t'^eek church, and as long as I have; ? ! lived in Xewberrv. T had never been j to the old cemetery until last Sunday j i when I went to attend the burial of, * M. A. Renwick, through the kind- i L iss of Congressman Dominick. The church is now on the road to j ^ Whitmire, Appalachian highway, and ] the cemetery is on the road to Braz- , z"eman's bridge, just in the rear of the Dr. Kennerly place, now the home j of 'Mr. C. K.v Baker. The church j building once stood on what is now j ^ a part of the cemetery loj. j ( This is probably the oldest of | t chuhch organizations in the county,' r and the cemetery Qertainlv the old-! est connected with a church in the j conntv. There are graves there; r ! hearing date as tar back as 17*1. ana t -1 tbf> headstones are made of roolr! \ gathered in the fields near by, ami j a the inscriptions are cut in ? crud3;'7 manner ihough still legible.

David Glenn says that thev- acknowledged "it was better to endure some evils than enrm ntrr the horrors of a revolution": but that ye? it was better still "to endure all the protracted miseries of a revolutionary struggle, than to fail to e::j y liberty of person, property and cop science." That same spirit cfc.ira?tsrizos their descendants to tin-: d::v. an.-l th^y are willing t > light for erty of person. property and cons'ien^, not only for themselves, but that the peoples of all the world may enjoy these blessings. ?o? These people came over in 17tf3 to 77". They brought their pastor with them, the 'Rev. John Renwiek. His <on. the Rev, John Renwiek, was born en the boat at sea in 1770. and it is stited that the first celebration of the j? Lord's Supper to these Christians was in Patrick Carmichael's barn near what is now known as Boyd's ^rops'nsr, between Newberry an:! Prosperity, and it is further stated in the history that the two RenwicK* oreache^s were descended from th^ *ame family as the He v. -Tames Renwick. the last martyr of Scotland, who suffered February 1>>, 1688. And Dr. Renwick whose funeral we attended was a descendant of thes*? same. ?o? This cemetery is the last resting olnr-e of rhe Browns, and Caldwells, MoMcrris. Calmes, as well as iRencvicks and Glenns and Mars'and many whose name is now extinct in the ' onntv. but who were prominent in the life of the good old days. ?o? * Dr. Thomas C.

I am :*oing :o make another pilgrimage to this ity of the dead when I will have time o study some of the inscriptions on he tombs and thus learn something nore of the history of the county. Strange to say there is no slab narking the tcmb of either Mroseph Caldwell or Dr. Thomas B. Cennerlv that I could find, though T im sure both these prominent citiens are buried here.
