Along with others in this county, we rejoice over the defeat of Boyd Evans for Railroad Commissioner. * * * South Carolina's primary system needs purifying. The influencing of voters with money should be stopped. * * * Bamberg wheeled into line all right with a vote of 702 against 451. This, too, in spite of the verv hard work done. * * , * Heyward's home county did the handsome thing again last Tuesday. The figures this morning are : Hey ward 1,000; Talbert 37. Kk- . Vw" * * The election is all over, and we hope everybody is satisfied. At least, they ought to he, for every man's candidate could not be elected. * jfftv * * There is plenty of glory to go all around in the result of the primary. Let us all rejoice that some men and methods are politically dead. *** Let us remind Latimer, as a supporter of his when it came to a choice of Evans or Latimer, that a United State Senator has other anil more important duties than distributing seed and pamphlets. * * * Let us all accept the result of the primary in good faith and endeavor to hold up the hands of those who have been elected in order that they may give the people the best service of which the}' are capable. Don't sulk because your man didn't get elected. * * There is much food for thought in the result of the Senatorial contest. It is to be hoped the defeated candidates and _ other politicians will profit by it. Latiiuer and John Gary Evans led in the first primar\* because their views suited the people better. The voters are tired of out-of-date issues which have never benefited their State. STATE ELECTION NEWS. Heywaru for Governor and Latimer for Senator Seem to be Elected. We go to press this week on Wednesday, as it seems that most of the important contests are decided b}* the votes already accounted for. Nearly seventy thousand votes had been returned up to Wednesday morning, and the daily papers say the total will reach about eightyfive thousand. The vote stands as folXv . lows : U. S. SENATOR.

S. Senator; Heyward Governor; Sloan Lieutenant Governor; Frost Adjutant General; Caughman Railroad Commissiouer. The race for Secretary of State is close, with chances in favor of Ganti. The contest for Comptroller General is likewise close, with chances favoring Walker. These are the only two State contests about which there seems to be any doubt. I For congress in this district Bellinger ' and Croft are running almost neck and I neck. Possibly ten thousand votes will be polled in this race, and 7,904 have been reported, giving Bellinger a lead of 18 ! votes. Some people here think Croft is ( elected, but it is hard to say. There is not likely to be more than a small majority, no matter which man wins. * Aiken was elected to eonyress in the 1 third district, defeating Smith. 1 Von Kolnitz is elected State Senator from ] Charleston county by a small majority, defeating.I.

Editor Tiik Bamheru Herald: The relatives ami friends of Mr. Charley 1 Rent/, assembled at his home on the2fird\ of August to celebrate with him his oOth. 1 birthday.

He ruus a three- * horse farm or has it run. Ilis neighbor 1 said that he could clear Charley from sit- * ting in the shade of the trees that stood ? in the field, but he could not clear Charley * from lieing under them. Mr. Charley ] does not look to be over thirty or thirty- ] five years old. While he has been provid- 1 ing for his family, he has been taking 5 care of Charley. About one o'clock the 1 table was se twith the dainties of the day. ' I do not think any one could stand and * look upon the table and the gaiety of the crowd and say hard times and worse coming, but would be constrained to say we have seen the day of peace and plenty. ] After dinner Rev. Charley Walker pre- < seated Mr. Rent/, with a bible. The gift ; mav seem very small, but I think that is j a gift where much is contained in a little < (book.) May Mr. Rentz, instead of lieing : in the shade, remember that he is on the ( declining age; others soon will be. The next fifty years where will he be? 13.

Bamberg Pharmacy, A. C. Reynolds, Ehrhardt. Corset War in Roumania. The outbreak which threatens Roumania has been caused by the minister of public instruction forbidding girls in the liigher and secondary schools to wear corsets, and in case of refusal directing the forcible removal of the offending article. The future mothers of Roumania, remembering that the ancient Romans, from whom they claim indirect descent, wore a kind of stays (does not Martial make fun of fat women, and does not Ovid tell us that a big waist kills love?) and that the corset, with a short interval, has been worn ever since, are natural 1}' up in arms against the arbitrary decree. It is a case of war to the whalebone, and it is pretty safe to prophesy that the school girls will win. Stops the Cough ami Works off the Cold. Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablets cure a cold in one day.

On the morning of August 25,1902, just as the rosy blush of morni ng was speaking into existence the day, and the king of day was rising front ihe Eastern horizon, Hooding the earth with effluence and beauty, the gentle spirit of Ella Zeigler bade farewell to earthly scenes and went to be with her God. She was the third daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Danuelly and wife of Ephruim Zeigler. She was married December 25 1902, but a mysterious providence decreed her's should be a i a. . .1 i;r_ T ai a i very snort marrieu me. in ine paiuway of Epbraini this sweet girl walked wbile yet tbe llowers of youth bent their dewy iips to kiss their feet, and all the clouds of life's rosy morniug were turned into gold by the alchemy of youthful hope and youthful romance. Soon their souls were knit together in a friendship and love so strong that time, separation, and not ?ven death can sever.

H., by driving the trotting horse Jim Crow over a mile track in the excellent time of 2.33 1-4, breaking his previous record of 2-40. Miss Straw is probably the youngest girl who ever drove a horse on a track, for she is ouljr 13. She has been accustomed to horses since her childhood. Her father owns some very good horses and is proud of his daughter's skill, but her mother, who is a social leader in Concord, doesn't approve of the child's horsey tastes. Jim Crow is a spirited and powerful trotter belonging to City Marshal Locke, of Concord, who owns several animals in training. He and Carrie are great friends. One day when she asked permission to drive Jim Crow Locke hesitated and then said: "He pulls like a bull and he goes like the wind, but if you want to try him you may " She insisted on driving alone. Mr. Locke consented. On the road she met her father and challenged,him to a race, which she won. Locke was elated by her victory and taught her bow to drive a race horse and offered her the privilege of guiding Jim Crow over the Wanolancet track when he would speed against his record. There was a great crowd when Carrie was called out of the grandstand lo sit in the speeding wagon. She jogged the trotter around the track, and then, paced by one of the judges behind Joe D., he nodded for the word. Without a skip she guided Jim Crow around the track and in the stretch she urged him to his best without carrying him off his feet, making the last quarter in 37 seconds. A Boy's Wild Bide For Life.

Taylor, of New Albany, Bradford County, Pa. "I was taken suddenly with diarrhoea, and was about to give up the trip, when editor Ward, of the Laceyville Messenger, suggested that I take a dose ot Chamberlain s Colic, Cholera and diarrhoea Remedy. I purchased a bottle and took two doses, one before starting and one on the route. I made the trip successfully and never felt any ill effect. Again last summer I was almost completely run down with an attack of dysentery. I bought a bottle of I his same remedy and this time one dose cured me." Sold by Bamberg Pharmacy. The Milk Was Too Rich. On one of the great stock farms near Galesburg, Mich., a pretty little Jersey calf has come to an untimely end in a most unusual way. The beautiful little creature had been kept for some time and it was thought advisable to let it run about and amuse itself for an hour or two. After it had enjoyed an unusually hearty breakfast of rich Jersey milk it was turned loose. There was great kicking and running for a few minutes, and then suddenly the calf keeled over and died. When a veterinary sought to ascertain the cause of the valuable little animal's death he discovered that the violence of its gamboling had converted the milk into butter and death from indigestion had quickly ensued. It is also evident?and 110 autopsy is needed to develop that fact ?that they have some very able liars in the neighborhood of Galesburg, Mich. Bew are of the Knife.

Ransom, who is well known in the South on account of his conspicuous work in agricultural matters and his connection with the South Carolina department of agriculture, and now with the Southern Cotton Oil Company, as District Manager, at Atlanta, Ga., in writing about the influence of cotton seed products on the development of dairying in the South, says: "About 1850, a few wealthy and enterprising Southern planters imported some Devon cattle from England. These were turned loose in canebrakes with the native scrubs and allowed to roam over large areas of wooded country, picking up a precarious living on the scant pasturage afforded by the woods freshly burned over by the forest fires in the spring. Although widely scattered and a few in number, the prepotency of this breed was so great that in many sections the evidence of this infusion of good blood is still visible in the stock. "No well-to-do planter at that time considered that he had milch cows enough to supply the wants of his family unles he owned at least twenty-five or thirty head. These droves of halfwild and half-famished animals were located towards nightfall by the ringing of a bell hung around the neck of the leader. They were driven to the cow-pen, sometimes miles from where they were found in the woods, a spasmodic effort was made to extract milk from them, penned up over night, and a second attempt made upon them the next morning. The 'average yield' was about one quart per cow. "The idea of increasing this production by judicious feeding was not thought of. This was the rule, but of course there were notable exceptions. People who did not own unlimited acres of land, and who appreciated milk and butter, took better care of their cows, fed them regularly, and allowed them to pasture during the day on their neighbors' land. This pasturing was more to give them proper exercise, and keep them healthy than to afford them any means of subsistence. To such an extent had the cattle interests of South Carolina in 1880 depreciated that the repairs to the farm fence cost more than the value of the cattle in the State, and the probability is that the same was equally true of nearly all the Southern States." Then came the "No Fence Law," which compelled the owners to fence the cattle instead of the crops. This forced the farmers to own good milch cows, or none at all, as it became too expensive to feed poor stock. About this time, or perhaps a little earlier, appeared the "Jersey" on the scene, a breed of cattle as suited to the needs of those who were "too poor to own a cow, and too proud to milk a goat." But this beautiful little animal soon demonstrated that she was not a "quitter," and, furthermore, that she "filled a long felt want," and, with proper attention, gave rich returns on her cost and keep, and, like the Irishman's pig that he raised In the cabin with his children, she "paid the rent" as well as the freight. As compared with the Devon, she was smaller in statu* and gave less milk, but the proportion of cream to water in what she did give, far exceeded that of the Devon, the Durham, and Holstein, and she promptly became the prime favorite of small families and butter-makers. But she could not live without feed, and butter could not be produced profitably on corn meal, wheatbran, or cowpea diet, nor could it be produced at all on what the Jersey could pick up in the pastures. Nature, always lavish, but provident, hid away coal in the earth for ages, only to be uncovered when the world needed it most, pointed the way to the gold fields only when this precious metal was absolutely required for the world's commerce, and covered from sight the phosphate rock of the Carolinas until improvident man had destroyed the fertility of the fields, likewise she held back the material required to make dairying In the South possible and profitable, until condi tions were favorable for its use. The advent of the Jersey cow created a demand for a cheap and rich food, which the oil mills supplied with hulls and meal. In a list of fifty of the leading feed materials of the United States, the National Departm?pt of Agriculture ranks cotton seed meal first, in feeding value and places the value of cotton seed hulls for the same purpose above the best timothy hay. The use of these products has fully sustained the department's reports, and dairy farming is fast becoming an industry of importance, and this has been largely the result of the liberal policy of the Southern Cotton Oil Co. of the Carolinas and Georgia, which has headquarters at Columbia, S. C., Atlanta, Ga., Savannah, Ga. and Charlotte, N. C., Goldsboro, N. C., and Augusta, Ga. Around the large cities in the South, dairies are successfully operated, supplying the people with wholesome milk, and rich golden butter from cows fed on hulls and meal. The country mills have accomplished the same thing for the farms and small towns. Around the factory towns the small mills make dairying possible, and profitable, as the demand from the operatives is sufficient to consume all the milk and butter that can be produced, and the use of meal for fertilizing the land, which is sold reasonably by the Southern Cotton Oil Company, has greatly enlarged the area devoted to truck farming of all kinds. Without oil mill products dairying would be impossible in many sections of the South. The abundance, cheapness and convenience of the products has already developed the business to an interesting extent and it is only in its infancy, ana us growtn win increase rapidly each year with the steady improvement in the grade of milch cows. Oleomargarine contains about forty per cent, milk, and the compound is a wholesome product. The establishment of co-operative factories for its manufacture in the vicinity of oil mills where refined- oil can be had would give a tremendous Impetus to dairying in the South.
