Dillon, S. C., July 85, 1918. The next big strike the Germans make will be for Berlin. a t The German offensives have be- f come quite inoffensive. | D American casualties are becoming b larger every day. The bigger they q Set the more we hate the Kaiser and n the more determined we get to strike v his system of slaughter and autoc- a racy. b h A German writer says the Ameri- | can soldiers don't know what they | __ -ore fighting for. That will make them all the more determined to get to Berlin so they can find out. Even at the risk of admitting that tbe Americans were in the fight the Germans could not resist the temptation to add another little lie about the size of the American casualty list. The difference between democracy and autocracy may be seen in the fact that out Col. Roosevelt's three sons one has been killed and the other to wounded, while not a single one he Kaiser's six sons has received tch. Autocracy can be counted ? ^ *a\ro />irp nf thp nrpoimis ??on ic ? hides of itvpffspring while the pleluan dt>?s tTC fighting. With one failing to attend on account of urgent "put)'0 duties" and the other refusing to a'tend because he fears assassination we are i^mind-, f , 'V ed of that old proverb in bcriptaTe j which refers to a certain good man ! who gave a big dinner and sent his i man servants out into the by ways' and hedges, etc. ' The Local Exemption Eoard is going to enforce the "work or fight"; order in Dillon county and every man , who is not doing a full week's work will be sent to the army. The rule applies to white and black, rich or poor, r.nd if you haven't got a job you had better get one before your name is handed over to the Board. The day of the loafer and idler is1 over in Dillon county. Some of the candidates are mighty; sensitive or else they regard the sentiments expressed by Cole L. Blease at the Pomaria and Filbert meetings as unworthy of a true and loyal American. When faced with the charge at the Florence meeting that he was not a loyal American Mr. i Blease showed his temper and left the hall in a huffy, even refusing toj speak after he had been introduced' by the chairman. At the Greenville; meeting Mr. Richards "rose up in his wrath" and with doubled fists threatened to smite Lieut.-Gov. Bethea "to the earth" if he dared insinuate that he (Richards) was not a loyal American because Mr. Be thea asked him if he endorsed (hej sentiments expressed by Blease at; the Pomaria and Filbert meetings, j And again at the Florence meeting; when Mr. Pollock asked Mr. Peeples if he would endorse the anti-war utterances of Mr. Blease or if he would vote for Mr. Blease, Mr. Peeples refused to answer and left the campaign. Surely, those must have been terrible words u c 1 by Mr. Blease at the Pomarla and Filbert meeting*, t when his former friend* and support- 1 era are ready to fight at the mere ^ suggestion that such sentiments ? might be entertained by them. If c Blease were a wanly man, if he would make good his oft repeated c boast, "I stand by my friends!" be g would come out and say, "I am re- 1 sponsible for those fatal words! I b am the man who uttered them at the c Pomaria and Filbert meetings! I J did it in the heat of passion or I did it because I thought it was the ^ight thing to do. If 1 have made a mistake I don't want my friends to suffer ~ for it." But instead he refuses to attend the campaign meetings, he will not face his accusers; he hasn't the courage to come out and shoul- ? der the responsibility. On the other hand It appears that he is endeavororing to divert public attention by dividing the responsibility between v bis friends. But Richards and Peeples refuse to share the responsibility with Blease. When asked if they endorsed Blease's utterances at Pom- F aria and Filbert one leaves the campaign' in a "huffy" while the other iffers to resent the insult with a ^ blow of his fist. Can you blame them when Blease himself is afraid to face lis accusers? Now, Mr. Voter, what ire you going to do about it? If rou vote for Blease you endorse his: mpatriotic utterances at the Pom-' ~ iria and Filbert meetings. You put c rourself on record as endorsing the rery thing which Mr. Richards, the icknowledped Blease candidate for governor, offered to resent as an inmlt. Can you afford it? i? One Way to Help.
