Shopping is going on at a lively rate, and all our merchants appear to be doing a good business. See the ad. of D. A. Kinard & Co. ' \ in this issue. The law firm of Messrs. Hendersons have established a branch office at Bamberg, in charge of Mr. Edward Henry Henderson, a son of Mr. E. P. Henderson and a young man of high standing.?Aiken Recorder. The county board of commissioners held a regular quarterly meeting here last Monday, but about the only business transacted was the approving of claims and granting a few applications to be placed on the pauper list. Guaranteed hosiery, "The Black Cat,"^t W. D. Rhoad's. Last Monday was the first Monday in the month and salesday, but there were no public sales and there was not a large crowd around the court house. A good many people from the country were in town shopping, however. Mr. D. M. Eaves, depot agent, has made a requisition for an electric clock to be placed in the depot, and it will be installed in a short time. |sfv This will be a great convenience to our people, as'it furnishes correct time. See the ad. of A. W. Reckling & Son in this issue. They will be at ! Olar Thursday, Friday and Saturday, October 15th, 16th, and 17th.

The new shades in clothing?the elephant and rich olives?at W. D. Rhoad's. It is dry and dusty in Bamberg now. Rain is much needed. Very little rain has fallen in this county since cotton began to open, and as a consequence the class of cotton put on the market here has been away above the average. Very few bad bales of cotton have been offered on this market. Lowney's, Baker's, and Nelson's - Cocoa, fresh shipment just in, at Ki-, nard's. The Barnwell Baptist Association X ; will convene at Springtown church on Tuesday, October 22nd. All delegates who will attend and who are coming by rail, are asked to notify S. W. Sanr'V difer at Bamberg or D. H. Rice at Govan, in order that conveyances may be provided to convey them to 4 the homes^ assigned.

It has a picture of William Jennings Bryan k . on the front and the words: "I gave my dollar; did you?" If you have contributed your dollar to the campaign fund, conie in and get one, or come in and contribute a dollar and let us pin a button on you. If you deal with us you don't have to ask from time to time about your account. You know, and in your absence it can't grow, g* D. A. KINARD & CO. The new teaching force at the graded school have gotten down to work, and work, and everything is , working smoothly. Mr. Allen has gotten affairs well in hand, and will carry the school forward to greater success, we feel sure. The enrollment is increasing daily, and there are a good number of students in the commercial department. The wisdom of establishing this department has been clearly shown. A penny pass book was in keeping with the times when fires were lighted with flint and punk. The McCas^ key accounting system and the electric heater are of this age. D. A. KINARD & CO. Number of farmers are storing their cotton in the warehouse of the Bamberg cotton mills, as they do not care to sell at present prices. The warehouse is full, and others would store if there was room. This is a strong argument for a public warehouse here, one built for the purpose of storing the cotton of the public. The cotton mill has its warehouse for its own cotton, and often has not the room for all the cotton offered for storage from others parties. Let's build the warehouse. i New Advertisements.

Day Current Soon. At last the generator, which is to supply The Bamberg Herald with electricity in the day time, has been shipped. It was shipped from the factory on September 23rd, and we hope it will arrive in a few days. Then we will be in better shape to take care of our constantly growing business and to work to much better advantage. We have certainly had a hard time of it during the past few months, much of this extra work being caused by our having to run our linotype and presses at night. Our force has worked the job presses by hand during the day and then run them a good part of the night by power. All the force from the editor J ?? hoon hariiv overworked. UUWLlf ULd ? ^ uvvii ?, - . _ _ but we look for easier sailing as soon as we can get the generator installed. Campaign Funds. A. W. Knight, Decania Dowling and Jno. H. Cope have been appointed as a committee by Col. Wilie Jones, State chairman of the Democratic party, to solicit funds in this county for the expenses of the National Democratic campaign. The election is only a few weeks away, and whatever is done should be done quickly. Those who wish to contribute will please hand the amount they wish to give to either one of these gentlemen. We also have a list at The Bamberg Herald office. The chances for Democratic success were never brighter, but money is needed for expenses. The Democrats do not get large contributions from the trusts, as the Republican do, but must depend on the people. Hand in your contribution,' however small Every little helps. The Cotton Market. Cotton sold in Bamberg to-day (Tuesday) for 9% cents the pound. The receipts for the past week were about one thousand bales. I want every lady or girl needing a cloak to see my line before buying.

Kilgus, Bamberg, S. C. Dear Sir: If you should hake bread that people like better than any other, and at less cost by the day, you'd have a pretty-good business, wouldn't you? We have just such a business as that in paint; a gallon goes further than any other gallon of paint in the country?that's bread at less cost by the day; but the difference isn't so small as it is in bread. And a job wears longer?that's bread at less +V.A Pannlo Viatp tn UUSL U r i,uc j tai . vv|/>v paint; it costs money to paint; and they hate the fuss. They like our bread by the year. If your bread is better than anybody-else's, and costs less too, you've got a good trade; for people do like good bread; and people like money. It doesn't take long to find-out; give 'em time. But you can't make better-thanany-body-else's bread for half the usual price for a breakfast can you? Devoe is just such paint as that. The price by the gallon or loaf is no matter. Count by the day week month year lifetime. Devoe is the bread. We hope yours is as good. Yours truly 24 F W DEVOE & CO. P. S. J. A. Hunter sells our paint. Social News.
