The friends in Bamberg and Bain-I

f the death of .Mr. Thomas H. Cren- i v
taw, which occurred near Black-1 y

eath it. Another car passing stop- d
ed a few moments afterward and t
ssisted in getting the man from un- h
er his machine. He was found to v
e in a serious condition, and injur- t
3 internally. He was carried to a s

Death of Former Denmark Man.
a
Sumter, July 9.?David D. Felder, 8
ho has been ill for the past two
eeks with typhoid fever, passed a
way Tuesday, July 6, at 4:40 p. m.,
t his residence on Dingle street. His
eath came as a shock to his many
lends in the city and throughout
le State. e
His remains were interred at the 0
;metery here at 6 o'clock Wednesay
afternoon. After the regular serice
by the Rev. Mr. Tolar and the Sl
ev. Mr. Guy at the grave, the W. O. *
J., of which order he was a faith- ?
ll member, took charge and paid
le camp honors to the deceased 0
rother.
Mr. Felder was born at Denmark 11
ay 28, 1892. Since leaving there "
3 lived for several years in Spartanarg,
but has made Sumter his home
>r the past three years. At the time
l his death he was in the employ of
ie Atlantic Coast Line as assistant
cket agent. He was married about ^
8 months ago to Miss Mae Cuttino,
' this city.
The deceased was the son of D. I. *
elder and Mrs. Ann E. M. Felder.
e is survived by his wife, Mae, the
lughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. P. Cut- j
no, of thi6 city; his mother, two
others and his sister, James I. Fel- OI
jr, W. H. Felder and Ainslee Fel- S(

Mr. Felder was a consistent mem;r
of Grace Baptist church.
The Sewerage Matter. ^
s<
The petition calling for an elec- 11
on on the question of issuing bonds B
)r sewerage is now being circulated B
mong the freeholders. It seems to be B
ie prevailing opinion that the mat;r
will have to be voted on separate- ei
from the waterworks bond matter. A
he petition for waterworks bonds to
le extent of $1 0,000 has been signed
y a sufficient number of freeholders
> secure the election, and a separate
edition has been drafted calling for a
a election for the issuance of $30.- jl
(10 in bonds for a sewerage system. Nv
his will necessitate two elections, or| 1(
ither two boxes at one election. As c:
tere appears to be a strong senti- w
ient in favor of both waterworks
ad sewerage, there is very little j
oubt that in the event the election '
called, both propositions will he
trried by a large majority.

Co. o2, just below Cordova, about t
ive miles from this place. Mr. Mack s
vas crossing the track through a *
leep cut about 5:15 o'clock this af- 11
ernoon, and it is supposed he ran I
lis motorcycle directly into the train. E
rhich was moving at a rapid rate in a
he direction or urangeDurg. il is <
upposed that .Mr. .Mack did not see s
he train in time to avoid it, and t

d man was placed aboard the train I
nd brought to this city, where he r
lied this evening about 7 o'clock. F
lis back was broken and he was F
iruised about the head. d

ge, a son of Mr. and Mrs. John W. I
lack, of Cordova. He was the rural t
etter carrier from Cordova, and was i a
ecretarv of the State Rural Letter s
'arriers' association, having been re- i
lected at the recent meeting in Flor- t
nee. He is survived by his wife,
. ho was Miss Mabelle Robinson, of
*nion, one child, and sisters and e
rothers as follows: Edward Mack, r
f Cordova: Jacob Mack, lieutenant a
.1 the United States army; Miss Ethel t
lack, of Cordova, and Mrs. Walter v
foing. of Columbia. The funeral v
rill be held at Cordova, upon tne ar- u

THE OUTLOOK.
|
By the Observer.
It looks as if the people of the;
own are going to have a chance to ,
ote on the sewerage question. I hope
hat it will he carried unanimously.
iut that is too much to hope for. i
Ve shall be satisfied if the sewerage
nd waterworks system is carried, ,
ven if but by two votes. Naturally
here will develop some opposition:
omebody will think this improve- ,
nent is not needed, and that it is noc
leeessary to go to this big expense. ,
t is always the case with big imirovements.
I am mighty sorry I
,m not a freeholder for I would like
o vote on this question, but the law
ays only those holding real propery
can vote on the question of isuing
bonds. But I must live in
iamberg, so no one ought to blame
ne or any other resident, however
ioor and lowly, for wanting this im
irovement. And if I can induce any
[oubtfu! freeholder to stick in a balot
in my stead, I shall surely do so.
have the interest of Bamberg at
leart. I want to see the town grow
,nd wax fat in prosperity. I don't
ee how it can do these things unless
t follows the example of the live
owns and cities.
The taxpayers, real estate taxpayrs,
have the responsibility in this
natter. I wonder how many of them
.re going to consider the benefits
hat will go to the average poor man.
iho, the law says, must not have a
oice in the matter because he does
tot own any property. Of course
he rich folks, the big property ownng
fellows, will have to foot the bill
.nd pay the money damages, but in
eturn their property will be entanced
in value, and the town they
tave their money invested in will
ake on new growth, the health of
he community will be bettered, ana i
he town made more desirable in
ivery way,
Mr. Editor, there has been so much
written about the war that I feel
ure you and your readers will think
t the height of presumption for a
mall atom like myself to venture to
tave anything to say about it. Well,
'11 not have anything to say about
he war, for I don't know anything
.bout it?that is not much. I know,
>r rather have good reason to beieve,
that Kaiser Bill, King Ed, and
he rest of the bunch even down to
he Gaekwar of Baroda, seem to be
rying to kill each other out. What
was going to say, however, is that
re will soon have a splendid opporunity
to do some mighty big busiless.
With all the rest of the world ,
t war, the United States is at peace,
md likely to remain so, despite the ,
alk of the jingoes. Every product
his country makes for years to come
rill be worth gold to the war-ridden
ountries. And we may all reason.bly
expect to share in this prosperi- t
y, for anything that prospers the <
rhole country will prosper every inlividual,
even if only a small bit. ,
I notice that the time-worn "poetical
pot is beginning to simmer"
s appearing so early as this. Notice
ne candidate is out for governor al- .
eady. Well, it looks as if we do not 1
inish up with one campaign before (
76 have to start on another. It is
pity we have so much politics in
ur country. Some times one is forcd
to the conclusion\that politics and
rar are somewhat similar. What
he one does in killing people, the
ther does in slinging mud and
plashing black things about. Someimes
I think that the time for men
unning on their merits is about
assed. The usual campaign consists
f one candidate telling the dear
oters why John Doe should not be
lected. Looks like the candidates
light let the people do their own
(linking; but then the muck-raker
rould be out of a job. They are
lected only by stirring the muddy
rater; in other words people vote
ar Richard Roe not so much because
Loe is a good man for the job, but
ecause Roe has succeeded in conincing
the people that John Doe is
ot a good one to vote for. Let the 1
eople rule.
An Empty Excuse. .
Corporal
Jenkins married and in (
!ue course his wife presented him
rith a son and heir, says the Pittsurg
Chronicle-Telegraph. His pals
11 flocked around to tender their
ongratulations and incidentally to
aste Bill's bitter beer.
Private Jones was on his way 1
hither when he met Sergeant Brown
eturning. "Where are you off to?"
sked the latter. <
"Oh, I'm just going to see Bill and !
,-ish him luck with that youngster
f his." was the answer. s
"Then you're too late,' said the 1
ergeant. solemnly.
"Wot!" exclaimed Private Jones, i
Surely it hasn't gone and died?" t
"No; worse than that. The youngter's
all right, but the blessed bar- i
el's empty!" was the grim response. <

The Mexican Situation. |>
Editor of The Herald:?I note ,
with interest an editorial in one of
our county papers of recent date entitled
"Digging Their Own Graves,",
in reference to the economic and n
moral status of the people of Mexico. c
The American press ought to speak t]
discreetly in passing judgment on the t;
situation in Mexico, because it is j-,
through the press that public senti- t(
ment is moulded more particularly. a
The American citizen, too, is a stu- c
dent, using the newspaper as one of n
the mediums for his information. c
The human mind acts and thinks n
generally according to its teaching, j.
This is due to the effect of sugges- q
tion. b
I do not agree with the writer that n
the Mexican people are digging their ^
graves. They might be, but out of p
chaotic conditions, perchance, will p
arise a people with a "new birth" j(
alike unto the glorious liberty en- a
joyed ny tue sous 01 .imenuiua g
wrought from the product of an op- t
pressed people by British dominion
and rule. We people here hear too t
much about Mexican peonage and il- v
literacy. From whose hands was c
woven the present fabric of Ameri- ^
can liberty and conservatism? I q
build here in my mind a product in r
the personality of our colonial days, c
and hold an ideal'wrought from the
poem entitled "The Closing Scene."
This poem surely must have been a j]
product of the colonial days. Such
was the personality of young America,
and it was under such circumstances
that the yoke was lifted from ^
the British crown.
To quote three verses of the poem:
"She had known sorrow. He had
2
walked with her,
Oft supped and broke with her the ^
ashen crust; t
Anft in the dead leaves still she heard ! ^
V ~ ------- j
the stir , (
Of his black mantle trailing in the "
dust.
I
"While her cheek was bright with i
summer bloom.
Her country summoned and she j
gave her all; t
And twice war bowed to her sable s
plume? t
Re-gave the swords to rust upon
the wall. c
"Re-gave the swords,?but not the 5
hand that drew,
And struck for liberty the dying *
blow;
Nor him who, to his sire and country *
true, '
Fell mid the rank6 of the invading
foe."
Not only does the hideous monster, h
ignorance, and rapine stork in Mexi- n
can territory, but the cruel and ty- t
rannous hand of the political dema- J
gogue coupled with monopolistic con- J
trol of Mexico's wealth. I picture an
awful plight for our own country in t
her effort to deal with Mexico. We 8
are looked to to pilot this country y
over the breakers, and looked to for t
its pacification, while we sit aside
and watch those European countries D
sweep into her wealth like dirty vul- h
tures leaving in their wake the trail
of oppression and want. d
It is lamentable that our country h
is not to be excluded from a hand by 1
monopoly on Mexico's producing ?
power. It would be only the discreet d
and honest economist who would go f
to Mexico and return with a true ac- n
count of her situation. C

When Joseph Brown, 4 years old, v

Toposed Board to Assist in Perfecting
Navy as Fighting Machine.
Washington, July 12.?Developtent
of Secretary Daniels' idea of
entralizing the inventive genius or
he country to assist in perfecting
he navy as a fighting machine has
inged on Thomas A. Edison's reply ,
o the request that he head a civilian
dvisory board. .Mr. Daniels had reeived
no word from Mr. Edison toight
and said that until the reply
ame he would have no announcelent
to make, although he was greats'
pleased at Mr. Edison's acceptance.
>ne of the first problems for the new
ureau will be that of improving the
avy's submarines and aeroplanes,
in imperative need of development
n these two branches of the service ,
3 recognized. There is now no Amercan-made
engine satisfactory for
.eroplane use nor have submarine "V
ngines or batteries been satisfacorily
perfected.
An important duty of the proposed
iureau of invention and development
dll be to scrutinize plans, which are
ontinually being received at the navy I .;/
lepartment from officers at sea. ' ' -i
'hese now are referred to the vaious
material bureaus, already overrowded
with routine work.
