Henry Zeigler and Wilmot Jennings, in the Fork section of Orangeburg county, stole three bicy- g^ cles from Messrs. B. W. Simmons, H. C. Folk and Evelyn Sandifer, of this as city. Their employers learned of the theft and of the owners of the bicy- ^ cles and brought the negroes to the city Monday, together with the stolen wheels. They suggested to the owners that they administer corporal punishment to the negroes, instead of prosecuting them, as it would do more good, and at the same time, they would not lose their hands. They agreed to this, and the negroes g( were given a good flogging, after ^ which the employers returned to ^ their places with the negroes, considerably sore, but much wiser. Memorial Exercises.

W. D. Rowell, treasurer of th< county executive committee, madi his report showing the receipts an< expenditures for the last ten years with a nice balance in the treasury and the report was accepted. J. F. Carter oftered the followinj resolution, which was unanimousl; adopted: Whereas, Honorable J. A. Hunter a member of the House of Represen tatives from Bamberg county, is < candidate for the office of Lieutenan Governor of South Carolina, be it Resolved, That we, recognizing hi: fitness and qualification to fill thi high office to which he aspires, d< hereby endorse his candidacy for sai< office and commend him to the voter: of South Carolina. S. G. Mayfield offered the follow ing resolutions, which after some dis cussion, were adopted. All wer adopted unanimously^xcept the on in reference to the county-to-count campaign: Whereas, in this State all tru white men support the Democrati party, and: TT T V? n 1-\ x-v /J y\ ^ A*\ir\ i Ai ^viieieaa, me uiucicutc ul u^iuiui and policies advocated by the respec tive candidates for office should b given to the people from the hust ings by a canvas of the State ant each candidate presenting views oi the several subjects advocated b him, and, Whereas, it is essential for th unity of the Democratic party tha each voter should have an oppor tunity, with as little hindrance a possible to cast his vote for the can didate of his choice, and have tha vote counted once and only once, Now, therefore, we the Democrac of Bamberg county in convention as sembled, do declare: (a) That we favor a county-tc county canvass by the candidate seeking the suffrage of the electc rate of this State, and the presen tation by each candidate personall of his views upon public affairs t the voters in each county. (b) We favor the amendment o the constitution and by-laws of th Democratic party so as to allow eac vnter an nnnnrt.iinitv of castine hi ballot untramelled once .and onl once for his choice of the candidates and that said vote when so cast shal be honestly counted. (c) That the constitution and b> laws should be so amended as t protect the ballot box from "fraud and perjuries" committed by de signing and wicked men; and thai looking to this end, we believe tha the betting on candidates in primar elections produces more corruptio and fraud at the ballot boxes tha any other source. We, therefore, believe it would b a wise thing for the State conver tion to so amend its constitution an by-laws so as to constitute the Stat executive committee, with the chaii man thereof, as a board of publi prosecutors, whose duty it shall be t bring to justice parties who violat the primary election laws by th . I betting of sums of money and fraudulently voting, and that said committee should have sufficient funds ( at its disposal to enable it to pros^ ecute and bring justice all malefactors committing acts against the purity of the primary election laws, (d) We further declare: That in t the affairs of Bamberg county we ? demand an administration of all mat- < ters pertaining to the pubic business < of the county in an honest, economi- ^ cal manner. That should graft of any kind be < y detected or suspicioned against any ( q officer or tms couniy or person con- nected with the county affairs by any e party influencing or seeking to ini fluence or corrupt any officer in the y discharge of his duty, it shall be the duty of th? officers of this county to call the same to the attention of the grand jury in order that the same - may be investigated as provided by - law, D. P. Smith, of Ehrhardt, offered ^ the following resolution, which was g unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the Hon. E. D. Smith, United States Senator for s South Carolina, has filled that position for the past five years with dignity, fearlessness, efficiency, and honor; and being in touch with the agricultural and other interests of our State and in perfect harmony . with the present administration is ; thus enabled to render signal service to the State of South Carolina, / be it Resolved, That. the members of . the Bamberg County Democratic Convention do hereby endorse his candidacy for re-election and commend him to the voters of the whole State. J. F. Carter nominated H. C. - Folk for re-election as county chair man, a position he has filled with ability and fairness ever since the county was organized, this being his - tenth consecutive election, and die was unanimously elected. Mr. Folk thanked the convention in a short speech, declaring that he would have preferred the selection of some = > one else, but stated that he would do his duty in the future as he had in ^ - the past. The election of delegates to the = State convention was then gone into.i ? The following were nominated: J. A. Wiggins, Denmark; H. C. Folk, - Bamberg; J. A. Wyman, Bamberg; S. G. Mayfield, Denmark; Dr. J. H. Roberts, Ehrhardt, Dr. S. P. Reutz, 5 . Hunter's Chapel; W. T. Cave, Olar; 1 Dr. J. B. Black, Bamberg. Messrs. Mayfield and Black withdrew their c - names, and the six named were elect- I '<> ed without opposition, on motion the secretary casting the unanimous bal- e e lot of th$ Convention for them. < Dr. L. A. Hartzog nominated H. C. ^ e Folk as member of the State execu? tive committee, and he was unani e mously elected. ^ The convention then adjourned, - after a most harmonious session. f In discussing the resolutions offer- * ed by himself, Hon. S. G. Mayfield j e made a strong speech, in which he I e spoke of conditions in Bamberg in i regard to social clubs and declared ? !, tha these were only blind tigers. He c stated that he had written the gover- \ nor that the dispensary constable j g stationed here was not doing his y duty and that the club had been , closed as the result of his letter. t , He also stated that he was inform- s nrivato napti'oc pnnlfl hnv ' CU mat yilTUW UMA VAVW vy v.. V. ^ 1 ] t whiskey cheaper than the dispen- J sary, and that a test case had been * s made and it was so proven. He believ- " 5 ed some man in Bamberg county was j getting a rake-off on the whiskey : s purchased by the county board, but that he believed the board were J all honest men. He asked the mem- j bers of the convention to stand out i e for enforcement of the law; that = e while he was a prohibitionist and had = y voted against re-establishing the dispensary in Bamberg county, that ^ e as the system had been voted back T c into the county by the people, every = i good citizen should not sit by and - see blind tigers and demoralizing in- : e fluences exist in the community, even 3 if they did buy their supplies from < a the dispensary. That the convention < y was in hearty sympathy with his re- : marks was shown by the hearty ap l plause given him. When the nomination of idele- < s gates to the State convention took ~ place, H. M. Kennedy, of Govan, wanted every man to declare him- y self, as he said he was not going to vote for any Bleasite. He also < wanted the convention to endorse 1 s Smith for re-election, but the resolution offered by D. P. Smith had al" ready been adopted. ( y q There was no discussion of factional politics in the convention, but 1 f the sentiment was largely in favor of . ? Smith. In fact many people who s voted for the present governor y against Jones say publicly that they 1 >? will vote for Smith. It is not a matter of faction now; it is a ques- ; _ tion of who they believe can do the . o farmers the most good in Washings ton, and they believe E. D. Smith is that man. y On Their Honeymoon, n ] n Washington, May 4.?J. A. Hun- ; e ter, of Bamberg, who is a member of : the legislature and a candidate for , e lieutenant governor of South Caro - lina, was in Washington to-day with ; c his bride, formerly Miss Johns, of 0 Barnwell county. Their wedding trip < [e will include New York. < <. " XEGRO KILLED HIS WIPE. 1 Charlie Wright Shot Pearli? Wright Five Tiroes at Negro Church.
