In the up try countie?, where the meetings been held so far, he has many friends will give him strong support. few days ago the press dispatches aimed the news that "a great battle" been fought between the Japanese Russian forces around Port Arthur hat the Japs lost 30,000 men. Each report of the battle diminishes the >er killed and we seriously doubt if lattle has been fought at all, but "a great battle is imminent." . Last week 50,000 western meat packers p' went out on a strike, and so far there is |>?o prospect of an early settlement of the | ' Mme. The price of meat has already advanced, and if the strike continues, the United States will experience a general . ? famina Thio fnrriishes an Jlimil Aflll liUV? JIUW HV1.4.V Ilir? object lesson to the farmers, and it is to pv be hoped that they will profit by it and Bp| n raise more meat at home. BI', The manner in which the daily newsH' papers are chronicling events and hapBptpenings at Jndge Parker's home is little H p ahort of disgusting. Just think of the ? sorrowful statement that "Judge Parker's ?- bay crop has been damaged by the frec ; ^^joent rains," yet we saw this item in J Tuesday's dailies. What in thunder do f the voters care about Judge Parker's hay v ji?erop? What we are interested in is his opinion on the questions before the peoM' Pie. And yet all the reporters can tell us % v^fs about his hay crop. For the sake of harmony they should cut his hay or at ?; B-; least "cut it put" of their reports. Hhebs w? wifih that we could imbue every |||- body in Bamberg with the spirit of the fe hustling, progressive and thriving city of BP ^1"0D- T1108? people pull together and Ik work as one man for the upbuilding of |jb their town. They exemplify the name of their town in all their actions, when the good of the city or its enterprises are at Epp^ltake. There is no decrying the efforts i|V'' of others, but a general desire to see the ife/ town grow and prosper, and everything ' tending to that most desirable end has G&the hearty support and encouragement of Bfe every citizen. They believe in Union, H?jfrinTh Union, work for Union, and the ipirit they exhibit and the work they do I worthy of emulation by every citizen f every South Carolina town. Let's have ome of it in Bamberg. We publish with a great deal of pleasre the article of Mrs. Virginia D. Young i reply to the editorial paragraph in this kper last week in reference to Dr. Mary Talker. Mrs. Young is our good friend, id we are rather glad that the mistake as made, for it gives her a chance to irrect it and defend the women sufagists from the charge of "mannish?8." However, we must put that miske on "the boys." Ordinarily we acpt responsibility for all that The Herald ys and does, but in this matter we must ead not guilty. We were away from >me last week and the article was writEl during our absence. We make this planation for the reason that the writer >uld not discuss Dr. Mary Walker in y event, no matter if she wears pants none at all. We agree with our good friend, Mrs. >ung, in her admiration for tidy houseepers, women who can sew and em?if'v > broider beautifully, make jellies, pre$ }'' serves, take care of the babies, etc. We ?? believe most men do. In fact, there is, in lp our opinion, no grander creation of God than a good woman. We love the women, anyway, believing that no assemjgt: blage of men is complete without their |fc - presence. However, looking after the affairs of a home is not a woman's right jlV only but a woman's duty, just as much | V. as it is a man's duty to be the bread winv ner of the family. If the women sufkKf fragists make this idea a plank in their -1 C.-II V *? I platform, wny we uiieenuii/ suuauiuc tv that part of their contention at least. r But there, there; we didn't mean to start ' a discussion of the question. We only wanted to say how much we loved the women, God bless 'em. Man without her would be a dull stolid thing, with none % of the arts and graces that make him now v so dear to the women's hearts. It is stated that one of the jurors in the Youmans murder trial at Manning last waek prayed to the Lord for guidance in rendering a verdict and that he was convinced that the prisoner was not guilty. He should have had his Bible handy and read the passage which declares that "whoso sheddeth man's blood by man shall his blood be shed." * * * MAYFIELD FOR CONGRESS. Senator S. G. May field, Bamberg's favorite public servant, issues this week his formal announcement for congress. This is merely a matter of form, as our people knew from this paper that he was already in the race, his pledge having been filed -T? lirn /I/\ nrrtnnco to some weeiks agv. ??c uvu discuss Senator Mayfield's public record at this time', for all our people are familiar with it. Then, too, they have hardly forgotten the matters touched on by us in the campaign for the unexpired term, only a few weeks ago. The almost unanimous vote given him by Bamberg county in that race is proof positive of the place he holds in the esteem of Bamberg's voters, and it is also phenomenal in the face of the fact that he has been in public life so long. No man can remain long in the position of State Senator without offending some people, provided he has a backbone. Mayfield has a backbone, and he never straddles an issue but meets it squarely. There is no queslion in the mind of the writer but that he will be nominated for congress in the first primary, although there are three in the race. Mayfield is an able man and will make a representative in congress that the whole district can be proud of. His great energy and his qualifications for the < -- . - ?:.u position wui enaDie mm 10 wieiu mmju influence in Washington and he "will obtain results for his people. We do not mean to reflect on any of the other Senators, but Mayfield has succeeded in having passed more legislation that is of real benefit to the people of South Carolina than all the balance of the Senate put together. His bill providing for turning over the dispensary profits to towns and counties is one of the best laws ever enacted, and saves thousands of dollars to the taxpayers of the State. This act alone entitles him to the support of the voters of this district. That he will make equally as fine record in congress we have no doubt, and we as earnestly believe his election is assured. We have nothing against the other gentlemen in the race, but Mayfield is the ablest man and will 1 make the best representative. That is why this newspaper supports him and desires his election. , CHAMBERLAIN'S COLIC, CHOLERA AND DIARRHCEA REMEDY.

Britton. -j THE CHRISTIAN churches at Constantinople, Turkey, and Yokahoma, Japan, have long used the Longman & Martinez paints for painting their churches. Liberal contributions of L. & M. Paint will be given ior such purpose wherever a church is located. F. M. Scofield, Harris Springs, S. C., writes, "I painted our old homestead with L. & M. twenty-six ? ? ? ?

Va., writes, "Painted Frankenburg Block with L. & M. shows better than any buildings here have ever done; stands out as though varnished, and actual cost of paint was less than $1.20 per gallon. Wears and covers like gold." These celebrated paints are sold by Bamberg Pharmacy, Bamberg; J. G. Wannamaker Mfg. Co., Orangeburg. Bishop W. A. Candler was once advocating a more liberal loosing of purse strings and told his audience that several years ago he sent an article to a paper in which he said: "We pray too loud and work too little." The compositor consciously or unconsciously, perpetrated a little joke, or when the article appeared it read : "We bray too loud and work too little." "I let it go at that," said the bishop, "The fact is, I believe the printer was right and I never ventured to correct him." PILES UPON TOP OF PILES of people have the piles, and DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve cures them. There are different kinds of piles, but if you get the genuine witch hazel salve made by E. C. DeWitt & Co., Chicago, cure is certain. H. A. Tisdale, Summerton, S. C., says, "I had piles 20 years and DeWitt's Salve cured me after everything else failed." Dr. Hoover. Woodmen Lose. The Woodmen of the World have lost their celebrated suit brought against them by a citizen of Yorkville, who claims that he was injured in the initiation. The supreme court to-day handed down a decision affirming the finding of the lower court, which awarded him $1,000. The case attracted attention all over the country and was of particular interest to all secret organizations, as some of the initiation used was brought out in { the trial. The suit was brought by 8. M. Mitchell, who claimed that while joining the order a goat was used that injured him permanently. The Woodmen, through Jos. W. Leech, who was an officer in the order, attempted to show that he had not been injured to the extent set forth in the complaint, but the. jury returned a verdict for $1,000, and the supreme court, to whom the case was taken on the admission of testimony, affirmed the lower court.?Columbia Record, 14th. One Lady's Recommendation Sold Fifty Boxes of Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets.
