The last meeting of the campaign will be held in Bamberg. Mr. O. J. Zeigler, of Bamberg, has been* awarded a scholarship to Clemson college from Bamberg county, - there being but one vacancy. The examination was held at the court bouse on July 10, and Mr. Zeigler ororotro nf tho *pv luauc Lntr c*?v v-v ww. eral applicants. A meeting of the county Democratic executive committee has been called by County Chairman Folk for Friday, for the purpose of arranging for the holding of the primaries, the first of which will be held on August 25, and the second one, if necessary, two \ weeks later. At the meeting of the committee managers of election will be appointed, and other arrangements will be made. The Democratic club rolls wlil be revised at the meeting of the executive committee tomorrow. If there are any names improperly enrolled they will be taken, off, and if afiyone has made application for enrollment and was refused, they will be enrolled if otherwise qualified. So far only two names have been found on the rolls in duplicate, and it is thought this was simply an error. ENROLLMENT 1914. ? ???? Slight Increase is Shown Over Vote i s of 1912 for the County. The enrollment of voters for the Democratic primaries shows an increase over the vote in 1912 of 105. The enrollment lists have been received by the secretary from the clubs in the county, showing the to: tal enrollment to be 1,429 for the entire -county. In 1912 there were 1,324 votes cast. The enrollment for the various clubs in the county is as follows: Bamberg 364 Clear Pond 20 Colston 59 j Denmark 2.17 Edisto ' 73 Ehrhardt 205 Govan 64 Hightower's Mill 45 Hunter's Chapel 58 Kearse 76 Lees 29 Midway 39 Olar .: 162 Total -1,429 j Representing Carlisle. Head Master J. C. Guilds returned Wednesday morning from a twelveday trip in the interest of the Carlisle School. During this trip he did work in the counties of Calhoun, Richland, Fairfield, Kershaw, Sumter, and Clarendon, and reports that the prospects of Carlisle receiving a goodly representation from these counties are bright. There were twenty-two counties represented last year and the school is to'ing each year to enlarge the circle of its patronage and influence. Mr. Guilds says that while crops are backward in some sections, the crop condition generally is very good. Tobacco is the money crop in a good deal of this territory and the farmers are quite blue at present because of the European war's effect upon the market. The tobacco crop is splendid and prices were good up to a few days ago. Mr. Guilds travels by automobile. He left his machine at Lynchburg and will return after a few days and spend a couple of weeks in tne fee uee section. New Advertisements. G. Frank Bamberg?To the Farmers.

Rol cho Found Necessary Then to Redeem me' State?Why Not Now? reti to i n To the editor of The Bamberg Herald; At the county campaign ^* meeting held at Olar on the 29th. teei Car inst., there was a request made in the form of a petition signed by about T)or seventy-five voters, askng whether the candidates would announce themselves in favor of or against the pres- res< ent administration. Of course it was pan optional with a candidate, nor could it have been otherwise, whether he announced himself for or against the administration. The majority of the qpe candidates were reticent in the mat+ nf AAnreQ Vi nnrnnco nf tV>p \SL VVU1 OC HiC ~ VMV ^ paper was to invite a candidate to 1 state his position, so that those making a way for factionalism, could b?\ vote against the administration. The Kl.n petition was gotten up by the anti- ^aK Blease faction. I hold that it is far " better to enter into factionalism by an element of the citizenship, and if a?d ed possible, in this manner try to eliminate the effect and influence of the p s < Blease administration. I voice the sentiment of factionalism by the 0 S anti-Bleaseites. It is true that "fac- ^ tionalism" is proverbial1 with a republican form of government, and it rv y is more often better to fight against erai this -inclination, and reactions like these often discourage revolution. utec The failure in the execution of the ' law in South Carolina has already ! had a demoralizing effect upon our rela people, and the tiend is towards an- , kee archism, as illustrated in the attempt . ine to assassinate Dr. Mcintosh. , lau< It must not be forgotten that fac- ty ] tional lines were drawn in this State ? in '76, when we went through the mal reconstruction period. The negro con was placed on an equal footing with wor the white man upon his emancipa- or- t tlon, and it took men with fearless- ^ ness, and yet with greater degree of cajj prudence, to wrench the vote from wej him who was not fitted to exercise c it, and the peril of which threatened the peace and harmony of people who ^ have ruled, and shall continue to era] rule by the help of God Almighty. and WILLIE HAY, JR. the Govan, S.

A good sized gin crowd was present at the court house a h at 11 o'clock, when the meeting was Cha called to ordet; by the acting bounty jn , chairman, Dr. J. B. Black.

He explained the operations of the c federal bureau of markets. g. ( men Turning to national \mauers ts., he reviewed his efforts on the Pujo Cot money trust committee and told of Ma; his part in the preparation of the cur- S. < rency bill, referring especially to the pan provision extending time on agricul- Cof tural paper to six months. A fine Infi tribute was paid by this candidate to line Woodrow Wilson, whom the speaker ter, declared to be the greatest president Trc since the davs of Thomas Jefferson, line Mr. Bvrnes told of the income tax Coi amendment and of his work in cans- .Mil ing the supporters of various good mei road measures to unite on one bill, 2."?t which he said has passed the house lan and is now pending in the senate. mei After .Mr. Mixson had addressed 1 the voters, in a five minute reply Mr. Zei Byrnes made vigorous answer to sen some of the claims made by Mr. Mix- sec son.
