To The Editor of The Dillon Herald: Please allow me the privilege of expressing through your paper to the people of Dillon county and to the prospective candidates for the office of the Senate my sincere appreciation of their unselfish act, previously taken by these prospective candidates, in announcing their desire to stand aside in favor of me and in announcing their desire that I be a candidate for the office. I am addressing this to the people as well ?s the candidates for the reason that I regard these gentlemen as representative men and that I am lead to believe that their action would be acceptable to the people. I have never had any political ambition, always having been content to remain a private citizen and to give my energies to the ordinary duties of life and to work for the upbuilding of my community and county to the best of my ability without any hope of reward, other than the good iwil) and friendship of my fellowman and the satisfaction of feeling that I have tried to make my life worth something to my country. I repeat that I have never had any political ambition. I realize, that this is a time when our country is passing through the greatest crisis of its history. It is a time when no man has a right to call his property hiB own, to claim any individual rights or even to claim his life as his own but everyone should be willing to sacrifice not only his property but even his life for the cause of his country, and to stand ready to 'o battle for this great democracy of ours at whatever place he is best fitted. Each and everyone of us must take his place in the battle line. Yniino man 1 ? * ** e u.vu iiu/mijaii]' vuu mentally fit should take their places in the front line trenches and fight where men in the full bloom of their manhood fight. Those who have families to take care of should work every hour at some productive calling and see that the -soldiers are kept supplied with every necessity so that we will not loose this war on account of a failure to back them up. It is necessary that those who are able shall put their hand to the plow, the rake and the hoe and raise food for our allies and army and those who are too old or unfitted for any of these things should give their support to the government in any and evory way that it is possible for hem to aid. Now then if the people of Dillon county think that it my duty to do so, and that I am fited for it, and the proper representative to go from this county to the Senate and that I can serve them in this capacity better than any other way, and if they feel that they should have one in this honorable position who feels for every boy in France or on his way there, as a father feels toward his son, then I am willing to answer the call to arms us 1 have no right to consider my own private wishes or desires when my country has need of me, for I am willing to give every ounce of my strength to my country. Allow me again to express my heartfelt appreciation of the spirit that has prompted the action that lues been taken by the prospective candidates, but 1 desire to say, however, that the action taken by the prospective candidates does not of course bar anv one from niakinir the race if he so desires. Just because they have so expressed themselves is no reason why anyone should feel any hesitation in offering himself, as what they did was only an expression of what they thought best and the honor of this office is in the gift of the people. Respectfully, J. H. DAVID. L_0 "FIGHT OK WORK." Gcii. t'rowder's Order Becomes Operative July t. Columbia, June 17.?"Every man in the draft must do effective work or fight," is the statement of Provost Marshal General Crowder. The work or fight order will become operative on July 1. The State Council of Defense has been called upon by the council of national defense at Washington to assist in the enforcement of this order, at least to the extent of working in cooperation with the local draft boards throughout this state. The local draft boards have or will have full instruction prior to Juy. These boards are responsible for the enforcement of this new order, but the local draft boards are very busy and will be busy probably throughout the summer months. The boards must have assistance. The State Council of Defense is herefore calling on the county council. for special duty, asking ihat throut.'i the cou. ty councils the attention of the local draft boards i throughout the State !. <? directed to jail men in no-essential occupations. This is an opportunity for real service of a nature that will not only ! assist the government but which will ai ine same ume neip 10 retain men in useful and essential occupations I for their work at home for a longer period of time, putting into the army ! instead men who are not so employed but who, for one reason or another, have not been so classified as to be subject to call for army service at this time. o Sign the pledge and buy all the War Savings Stamps you can.
