Read the advertisements in The
jp^ Herald. The merchants who advertise
with us have bargains to offer
you. Mention the fact that you saw
their ad. in The Herald when buyill}
ing. It will help you as well as us.
For the first time in its history
, The Herald appears as a sixteen page
v paper, and we wish to thank the
!?;," business men of Bamberg who by
??|j?; their patronage made such a paper
jjT'possible. Now let our readers show
|fc: their appreciation of the liberality of
g||? these merchants by patronizing our
BSasP advertisers. We would issue a paper
I of this size every week if our advertising
patronage would warrant
it. We'll give a column of reading
matter for every column of advertising,
or if this proportion did not
quite hold good, that is, if we could
not get fifty per cent, of our space
filled with edvertising, we would
print a sixteen page paper anyway.
rAll we want is a reasonable amount
of ads. You can always be assured!
that there will be plenty of reading
matter in The Herald.

LYNCHING IN ARKANSAS.
Alleged Assailant of Woman Hanged
to Telegraph Pole.
Forrest City, Ark., Oct 16.?Nathan
Lacey, a negro, who it is charged,
attacked Mrs. Thomas Cox at her
home, near Forrest City, yesterday,
was taken from the local prison tonight
by a mob and lynched.
Lacey was captured by a posse
early to-day and imprisoned at Forrest
City. To-night a mob of several
hundred formed and, armed with
sledge hammers and crowbars, battered
their way to the negro's cell.
Lacey was dragged into the open
and with a rope about his neck
marched to an old brickyard site, a
mile from the city, where he was
hanged to a telegraph pole. His body
was left hanging.
Plot Against President's Life?
San Francisco, Oct. 1.6.?A report
received here to-day by officials of
the Southern Pacific Railway Company,
from a section foreman of the
road at Naples, CaL, gave details of
the discovery of 36 sticks of dynamite
under the pairtan -Viaduct, 20 miles
north of Santa Barbara, several hours
before President Taft's special train
passed over the bridge, en route to
Los Angeles, this morning.
The dynamite was found after the
I mo +/?Vimor? onprnirpd in a revolver bat
TV C* V**QV?q V w - -
tie with two men, who escaped. The
dynamite was discovered at 2 o'clock
this morning. The president's train
passed over the bridge at 5:15.
The night watchman saw two men
on the bridge shortly before 2
o'clock. They were at the end of the
bridge and ran when told to halt.
The watchman hurried after them,
firing several shots, which were returned.
After the pair had escaped the
watchman returned to the bridge and
began an investigation. Nearly off
the span, lodged on one of the posts
of the viaduct, were 36 stacks of
dynamite with a ten-foot fuse attached
to one of the sticks. He left
the find untouched, going to Santa
SDcll Lkli d auu J-LVJUIJ iAAfo viuv>&ia.
Sheriff Wines, of Santa- Barbara
county, went immediately to the
bridge, with several deputies and removed
the dynamite. A search for
the men is on.
Running Too Fast.
"The fall season is here when our
main business street is generally
crowded with people from the country
selling cotton, buying goods, and
attending to other business, and we
most respectfully submit to city
council, without - any intention of
trying to run the town, that the ,
speed limit for automobiles on the
business street be strictly enforced.
The speed at which machines are run
at present is entirely too fast, and
the , lives of x our country friends
should be protected. People will not
want to come to Bamberg to trade
if they are in danger of being run
over by automobiles every time they
cross the street."
The above is from The Bamberg
Herald. We suggest to The Herald
that he get the mayor of Bamberg to
hand out fines to,the speed fiends
just as the mayor of Greenwood
does, and it will not be a great while
before there will be safe and sane
running. There is not anything 1
rlike it. Talk and newspaper articles
do not touch the tender spot like a
lick at the pocket book does. It
brings them down every time.?
Greenwood Journal.
I Bankrupt Through Graft.
i
Te most remarkable position into ,
which a city has ever fallen is that of <
the city of Lawrence, Mass. This manufacturing
city, with a population of
86,000, finds itself bankrupt; its late
mayor, fire marshal and one alderman
are in jail; the mayor's secretary
has pleaded guilty of bribery, *
and several other city officials are
under indictment for bribery or for
stealing from the city.
With the city in this predicament,
its leading citizens have joined in a
petition to the legislature to give it a
commission government of five persons,
to be selected by the legislature
and to exercise all of the pow- ,
ers of municipal government until a
new charter can be'adopted.
It is altogether probable that Law- i
rence has as large a percentage of 1
honest people as any other American
city. But evidently the honest citi- |
zens of the town were entirely neglectful
of their civic duties. No city i
could pass entirely under the control
of a gang of reckless plunderers un-!
less this was the case. The appeal
of its people to the legislature to
save the city from th^ consequences
of their neglect of civic duties will
probably have to be met. It is a confession
that the people of the city
are incapable of conducting their own
municipal affairs.?Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
Hon. James F. Byrnes was the
guest of honor at a barbecue at Fair i
Pond school house on Friday, and his
appetite was, they say, eloquent of
the excellence of the feast.?Barnwell
