In South Carolina, the piajority of the voters have been accustomed to passing up Hie November election for the reason that not ip many years has there been any serious opposition to the nominees of the Demo cratic primaries and a large turnout of the voters has not thus been necessary. rv This year the situation mayJbe entirety different. There ore strange forces ht work and there appears a possibility that there may be effected a coalition of some elements in the state which will not bode good for the majority of the people of this state. The only hope for the state lies in a practically solid front on the part of th4 majority of the people of the state. If some elements of this majority form a coalition with a united minority, the situation in this state coiild be drastil “ “ not on guard.$ Atk -seek any sort of coalition for personal gain. The Chronicle feels that tilt situation is so serious that every dtisen of K«r*hdw county should get * registration certificate and be prepared to do his or her part in the November flection. ’JR-s better to be safe than sorry.< Get yoiir regis tration certificate at once and take core of JPIJmW ■AFVAluJJrg vIJ changed are alwa Ernest Nutting f; bd H F.
