Brief Items of Interest Throughout
the Town and County.
The county campaign meeting was
held yesterday at Denmark. 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

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.

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.

"FACTIONALISM" IN *76. Rol

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

crowd was present at the court house a h

chairman, Dr. J. B. Black. Congress- i
man Byrnes was greeted with hearty nie(
applause when he was presented. He iast
stated that he wished to discuss mat- ?
ters of national interest, but realizing cj1?
that some of the voters wished to ?
know what he had done in regard to and
local affairs he detailed his efforts for Reg
the district along lines of improve- dement
of the inland waterways, a re- dur
survey of the South Edisto- river, pub- jn \
lie buildings, rural routes, soil sur- 01veys
and other matters of this kind.
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. Both candidates were given to
closest attention. tho
