“POLITICAL HISTORY.”
In an effort “to keep the record
Htraiffht,” The Bamberg Herald
cites some interesting election fig
ures under the above caption in last
week’s issue. The article was in re
sponse to a claim made by “some
people that Blease has carried Bam
berg County in several of his ^ces.*’
It appears from the record that the
ex-Govemor dij get a majority ?>f
38 in that county in 1910, when he
was elected over Featherstone. In
all of his other campaigns from
1900 down to date, Bamberg w?nt
“agin ’im,” at times by a majority )f
nearly 4 to 1.
It is also interesting to note i n
this connection that while Mr. Blease
has been a candidate for State office
continuously since 1910, with the ex
ception of 1904 and 1920, a total of
nine campaigns, he has been success
ful only twice. His try-out again
this year makes the sixth time he has
run fo r Governor. In addition, he
has offered twice for lieutenant gov
ernor and twice for the United States
Senate.
It might he remarked in passing
that Mr. Blease's candidacy ; n
Barnwell County has not fared
much better the past than it did
in Bamberg County

WHY THE TERM -DOUGHiOr?
NOTH * Til t RBOmift*
UNITED STATE* DUTOICT
COt’HT
The hot weather anj lark of ea-
thustasm on the part of the voter*
is causing some of the candtdatss
for State offices to m<evtio«i the wis
dom of “carrying on” with the bi
ennial cirrus. The people as a whole
are too busy making a living to
get wrought up over the appeals of
the seekers after public pap. We
hope, however, that they are giving
serious thought to the matter and
that good men will he selected to
steer the %hip of state for the next
two years. The almost total lack
of factionalism so far observed leads
one to believe that ihe voters of
South Carolina are fast returning to
a safe and sane attitude toward
politics.
A man who is in position to know
claims that California grows more
lemons than any other state except
the state of matrimony.
When a town boasts these days that
its jail is empty it b> merely handing
a left-handed compliment to its police
force.
If “brevity is the soul of wit,”
prese.it day styles in women’s wear
should be a scream.
SHERIFF MAKES RAIDS
Sheriff C. K. Sanders made two
raids Tuesday, capturing a 30-gallon
capacity still near Ray’s Crossing
and destroying about 100 gallons of
beer on Hungry Hill Branch, from
which the still had been moved.
) ■ ^v.
Sheriff Sanders requests all citizens
having information as to location of
stills to report the matter to him.
Their names will not be disclosed and
everything possible will be done to
apprehend the violator* of the pro
hibition law.
