- Blease had some friends in Bamberg
last election, but sentiment has
undergone a decided change. You
hear no one in this community defending
him these days or commenting
on his course in any but terms
of disapproval. And he had such a
fine chance to make something of
himself if he but could have measured
up to it.
Yes, we intend to be present at
the State press association in Columbia
and hear the address of Governor
Woodrow Wilson, the next
president of the United States. And
we do hope that Knight, of Bamberg,
will be on that trip to New
York.?Chester Lantern.
Well, if you'll lend us tne money,
we might go.
There should be expression from
the candidates for municipal honors
as to their idea of town government.
We should have permanent
improvements as far as possible.
Main street should be paved with
vitified brick at least from the depot
to the corner at the furniture store,
and this will be a wise expenditure,
as we will spend more than the interest
in a few years doing temporary
work.
The town election is near at hand,
and we'd just like to see a good oldtime
mass meeting held, where every
voter could attend and express his
views as to how the town should be
run and who ought to be elected and
all that sort of thing. We need to
pay more attention to electihg our
town officials and more than all we
need to give these officials our sup-1
port and encouragement after they
are in office. It has become something
of a custom in Bamberg to
criticise and find fault with the way
01 managing our city aiiuu s, <uiu ao a. j
consequence our best men are backward
about accepting municipal honors,
where there is no pay, little
glory, and constant criticism. Let's
get out of that habit, and now is a
mighty good time. Let us pledge to
our city officials our earnest co-operation
and support in their work,
and if we must disagree with them
at times, don't do so in a nagging sort
of way. Our city government is of
much importance to every tax-payer.
The income of the city is now about
$15,000, and with no surplus on
hand, every dollar must be wisely
and economically expended. Good
business men are needed, and they
can be induced to serve if a lot of
senseless nagging is stopped.

People should ?remember that a
public official deserves no credit for
doing his duty. When he does this
he is only keeping faith with the
people who elected him. It is when
he does not live up to his promises
that he should be criticised, but he
has no praise coming to him when he
does that which he is sworn to do.
The Honorable Coleman Lightweight
Blease and the Hon. Thos.
Backout Felder appear to be a pair
of four flushers. Tbey were going to
tell some awful things on each other,
and the Hon. Lightweight was
also going to give out some letters
which would be just simply "awful"
for the attorney general, but so far
there is "nothing doing."
^
Maj. Andrew C. Dibble has been
elected Probate and Special Referee
for Orangeburg county over two opponents,
and (that county is to be
congratulated that it is to secure the
services of such an able and honest
public servant. Maj. Dibble is one
of the very best men Orangeburg affords,
and will make an ideal official.
His Bamberg friends are much pleased
over the result of the election.

The status of the case of John J.
Jones, who was sentenced to serve
ten years in the penitentiary for the
killing of Abe Pearlstine at Branchville,
is puzzling to many people.
Jones is in the penitentiary, but it
is stated that he has not commenced
to serve his sentence, and he has no
appeal before the Supreme Court, the
time for perfecting an appeal having
passed. If Jones is not a prisoner
in the penitentiary, what is he doing
there?
m m
We are afraid that Judge Geo. E.
Prince is too tender-hearted to he on
the hench and stand between the
corporations and the people. At the
Barnwell court 12 "good men and
true" returned a verdict against the
Southern Railway for $50,000 dam
ages for crippling an engineer for
life. Yet the judge was so tender
hearted that he reduced the verdict
by $20,000, so that the poor railroad
officials who travel around in their
private cars will have that much
more money to spend, while the rich
engineer, crippled for life, with possibly
a family to support and no way
to make a living, loses it. Was his
judgment better than that of twelve
men who had heard the evidence and
were sworn to render a true verdict?

lished in April, 1891, and is there
fore twenty years oia. i ne paper nas
had a checkered career. It was first
owned by a stock company, with
Henry S. Hartzog as editor. He resigned
after an experience of about
two years, and the paper was managed
by several persons during the
next few years, being finally bought
from the stock company by Mr. Otis
Brabham, who owned and edited it
until July, 1899, when it came under
the control of the present editor.
The paper was not founded originally
as a money-making enterprise,
but the business men of the town put
their money into it simply to boom
the town. Whether it was successful
or did much good as a boomer Cannot
be stated with accuracy, but certain it
is that it was not a money-maker, as
the original stockholders lost every
dollar they put into the company.
The paper has grown and prospered
some since those days, and its
equipment has Increased proportionately.
When we bought it the outfit
of printing material was hardly
worth $500, if so much, and to-day
the outfit could hardly be bought for
$12,000. It has gone from a Washington
hand press and type set by
hand to a Mergenthaler linotype machine,
which sets all the type for the
paper, and the finest sort of presses,
all! driven by electricity. Any sort
of printing can now be done in the
office, the business warranting the installation
only last summer of a fine
Miehle cylinder press for fine job and
book work. There is also a great
change in the quarters of the newspaper.
The first office was up-stairs in
the store of what is now the Bamberg
rurniuire & .tiara ware uuiuyaujr,
later in the up-stairs rooms now used
for the telephone exchange, then it
was moved down stairs to the small
store now occupied by the restaurant
of John Cameros, and from there it
was moved about three years ago to
its own building, built especially for
a printing office and book store.
Of what benefit the newspaper has
been to the town and county under
the present management we leave
for others to say As to the future,
we shall devote the same energy and
efforts to the best interests of Bamberg,
and our patrons can be assured
that the paper will develop just in
proportion to the business given it.
We have faith in the future of Bamberg,
and have shown that faith by
installing one of the very best equipped
printing plants in the State. It
seems only fair that it should be
supported by the business interests
of the town.

Attempting to Dictate.
Gov. Blease attempted to create a ,
sensation last Thursday by giving
out a statement condemning the action
of a committee from the board
of trustees of Winthrop college in
awarding the contract for plans for
the new building at Winthrop to a
Charlotte firm of architects. The
governor stated that he would en- ,
deavor to have the board of trustees
or the committee repudiate the contract,
and wanted to call a meeting
for that purpose last Monday, but
could not do so, as President Johnson
was out of the State. The committee .
who awarded the contract to the
Charlotte architects are of the opinion
that the governor has nothing to
do with the matter, and state they
1?+ +Vi?k />rmfront in nrvmneti tion with
l/UV VVUV* WW
architects from this State. The governor
bases his opposition on the
ground that there are competent
architects in this State who should
have been given the contract.

Coca Cola Wins Case.
Chattanooga, Tenn., April 6.?Tlie
case of the government against ,"40,
barrels and 20 kegs of coca cola,"
was decided in favor of the Atlanta Jf {/rp
beverage in the federal court here ^
this afternoon. In ruling on a motion
for pre-emptory instruction,
Judg^ Sanford held that caffeine Is- not
an added or deleterious ingredi- .
ent of the drink. He overruled the 'i-p
motion on points relating to the mis- ifeJsB
branding feature of the allegation, ~ '"Ss
hnt counsel for the government J?
moved to dismiss the case on these "J
points. A verdict-was returned in Y?|m
favor of the defence.
Federal counsel entered a motion
of appeal to the United States Cir- V^?J
cuit court, at Cincinnati.
The coca cola case has been one of :
the most important eve!" tried in the ; Mh
federal court in the South, and the ?
cost of the litigation has been enormous.
It is said $200,000 will not
cover the expenses. Both sides ^
have had experts from all sections .
of the country, the most eminent sci- .
mtists, principally chemists and physicians.
The government has spared ^jj
ao expense in the effort to prove its
contentions and the coca cola people vigj
tiave been equally liberal in securing *
