No Checks Cashed at Postoffice.
Postmaster Knight requests it stated
that hereafter he will be unable
to cash checks at the postoffice. He
states that it is strictly against the
> rules of the department to cash
checks with postoffice funds, and that
he has been checked against for ac
ft/-' commodating persons in this way. He
states that he wants to accomodate
people in every way possible, but
that to ask for checks to be cashed
at the postoffice is the same as asking
that the postoffice laws be violated.
Although the postmaster is
personally responsible for any checks
that may be cashed as an accomodation,
the department says that it
must not be done, as nothing but the
hard cash counts with Uncle Sam,
and the department does not even
allow the postmaster the privilege
* /
of cashing checks on his own responsibility
out of postoffice funds.
Checks cannot be accepted for stamps
or money orders.

NEW PARCEL POST RATES.
Fourth-Class Matter Cannot Be Registered,
But May Be Insured.
Following is the order of the postmaster
general, dated August 20,
1 1915, amending the postal laws and
regulations, now effective at the Bamberg
postoffice:
Effective September 1, 1915, para
graph 2, section 4SS, postal laws and
regulations, is amended as.follows:
Fourth-class parcels shall not be
registered, but may be insured
against loss in an amount equivalent
to the actual value, not to exceed $5
in any one case, on payment of a fee
of 3 cents; not to exceed $25, on
payment of a fee of 5 cents; not to
exceed $50, on payment of a fee of
10 cents; not to exceed $100, on payment
of a fee of 25 cents, in addition
to the postage, both to be pre-paid
by stamps affixed; but indemnity
will not be allowed on loss of
such mail addressed to the Philippine
Islands, unless the loss occurred
in the postal service or the United
States.
This amendment provides that the
following indemnity will be paid for
loss of insured parcels mailed on and
after September 1, 1915.
Covered by a 3-cent fee, value up
to $5.
Covered by a 5-cent fee, value up
to $25.
Covered by a 10-cent fee, value up
to $oU.
Covered by a 25-cent fee, value up
to $100.
Your particular attention is directed
to the 3-cent fee for parcels which,
in the event of loss, tne sender desires
no more than $5 indemnity.
Your attention is ateo directed to
the fact that effective September 1,
1915, the postal laws and regulations
are amended by the insertion
of a new section reading as follows:
Section 458 1-2. . On and after
September 1, 1915, the postmaster
at the mailing office may, on payment
of one cent, give the sender of an
ordinary parcel of fourth-class mail ,
a receipt therefor. A postage stamp
to cover the charge for the receipt
shall be affixed thereto. The name
and address of the addressee shall
be written in the receipt by the sender.
The purpose of this receipt is to <
protect senders of fourth-class parcels,
when desired, a record evidenc- i
ing their mailing, for which a fee of
one cent is charged. Their issuance
does not insure in any way against
loss of the parcel while in the mails
and no receipt is obtained from the
addressee upon delivery. Patrons 1
desiring to avail themselves of either '
of the latter facilities are advised to
insure their parcels.
Changes in Telephone Office.
Last week the operators in the central
office of the Southern Bell, Telephone
and Telegraph company were '
changed. Miss Mae Hair was trans- (
ferred from Bamberg to the local
room in Columbia; Miss Hair is re- 1
lieved by Mrs. Kinsey. Miss Ethel '
Pollard resigned, and was relieved by
Miss Mary Benson, of Columbia. :
Lineman Woodman resigned from his '
position, and was relieved by Mr. 1
Hair. On account of the increase in
the company's business here, it was
found necessary to provide an additional
operator, and Miss Leone Bamberg
has this position.
Negro Killed at Olar.
. 1
J. P. Odom was shot and killed on
Monday on the Morris place, neai
Olar, by William Draper, both negroes.
An inquest was held by the
coroner, the jury returning a verdict
that Odom had met death at the
hands of Draper. It appears from 1
the evidence that Draper and his
wife were quarreling, and that Vonnis
Odom, wife of J. P. Odom, at
tempted to part them, in the capacity
of a peacemaker. Draper is alleged
to have struck Vonnis, whereupon
her husband, the slain man, interfered
and demanded to know why
Draper struck his wife. Draper then
shot Odom, according to the evidence
of two witnesses, the only ones
sworn. ' The testimony of Vonnis
Odom, the principal witness, is as
follows:
" William Draper and his wife were
in a fuss. He went in the house and
got Pearly (Draper's wife) and he
.was beating her, and I went out to
try to part them. I didn't say a
harm word to either of them, and
William hit me on the side of the
head. When he hit me, J. P. Odom,
my husband, asked him if he come
in my yard and hit me. William said
nothing, and he asked him again, and
William said 'What is it to you it
I hit her?' When he said that, J. P.
walked out and William Draper shot
him. He shot him with a rifle."
Dr. Robert Black performed tbeautopsy,
and found that the dead
man had been shot with a .22 calibre
( rifle, and that the wound so made
caused the death of Odom.

The various teachers were in their
' x 1, 1 J! ?
places, ana me pupns ana teacneis
entered heartily into the work.
A public meeting was held, in the

Prohibition Election Tuesday.
iT ???
The prohibition referendum election
will be held next Tueday. The
question to be voted on is whether
or not the existing dispensary counties
shall continue the sale of alcoholic
beverages or discontinue the
sale. The election will in no way affect
the existing dry counties. If a
majority of the voters vote to close
yie dispensaries, the law provided
that the dispensaries will have until
January 1, 1916, to dispose of stocks
on hand, and wind up their business.
The polls will open in this bounty
at 7 o'clock in the forenoon, and remain
open until 4 o'clock, p. m.,
when the polls will be closed, the
managers will proceed to count and
canvass the votes, and declares the
result.
The managers for the county are
printed in the notice of election to
be found in another column of The
Herald this week. The managers for
the Bamberg box are Messrs. H. N.
Folk, R. S. Simmons, and G.XA. Rice.
The qualifications for voting in
this election are the same that prevail
at November general elections:
Residence in the State two years, in
the county one year, in the polling
precinct in which the elector offers
to vote four months, and the payment
six months before the election
of any poll tax then due and payable.
None save those holding registration
certificates are permitted to
cast a ballot.
It is generally predicted that the
vote polled will be very light. Very
little interest had been manifested in
this county by either side up until a
few weeks ago, when the prohibition
forces held a meeting and organized
at the court house and outlined a
county compaign in the interest of^
prohibition. So far as is known no'
campaigning or publicity of any kind
has been put forward by those opposed
to prohibition in Bamberg county.
The prohibitionists claim the vote of
the county will be largely against the
continued sale of whiskey.
Cotton Experiments.
The News and Courier has received
from Mr. A. W. Brabham, of Olar,
S. C., samples of cotton showing the
results which Mr. Brabham has obtained
through his experiments in
growing colored cotton. In four
years Mr. Brabham has succeeded in
changing white cotton into cream,
cream cotton into a grayish green,
the grayish green into a yellowish
green and the yellowish green into

Mr. Brabham hopes that next year or
the year following at latest he will
be able to produce biacfc cotton.?

Prohibition Meeting Held.
Tuesday an enthusiastic meeting in
the interest of prohibition was held
at Denmark. The meeting was attended
by a fairly representative aggregation
of men and women, and. to
quote one of the "prohis" present,
"prohibition carried the day." The
meeting was presided over by Mr.
Thomas Black, chairman of the prohibition
convention. Addresses were
made against rum by Rev. C. E.
Burts, D. D., of Columbia, Rev. H.
Grady Hardin, of Denmark, and Rev.
E. O. Watson, of Bamberg. The address
of Dr. Burts, who was the principal
speaker of the day, is described
as being one of the best yet heard in
the prohibition campaign.
I ast week a large and enthusiastic
crowd attended the prohibition meeting
at Ehrhardt. Hon. T. G. McLeod,
of Florence, was the principal
speaker, and his stirring appeal was]
listened to with much interest, and
is said to have had great affect upon
the audience. Addresses were also
made by H. M. Graham, Esq., and S.
G. Mayfield, Esq. A picnic dinner
was served on the ground.
The meeting at Colston was held
yesterday, Wednesday. The last
meeting of the dry campaign will be
held at Bamberg tomorrow, Thursday,
at which it is proposed to have
a grand rally in the interest of prohibition.
The meeting at Bamberg
is expected to be attended by a large
crowd. Several speakers will make
addresses.
Colombia Boosters Visit Bamberg.
Monday 171 Columbia boosters
visited Bamberg on a special train,
carrying forward the "Carolina first"
propaganda, and stimulating tne gettogether
spirit. The boosters were
met at the station here by a committee
of citizens and given a warm welcome
to the city. The crowd adjourned
from the train to the court
house, where an open air public meeting
was held, short speeches were
made, and everybody made to feel
that South Carolina was only a big
family and that we shoud all pull together
for the good of our State.
The booster trip was made under
the auspices of the Columbia chamber
of commerce. Two- trips had
been made by auto. The special
train conveying the genial party of
Columbia and Carolina boosters
made stops at Blackville, Denmark,
Bamberg, Branchville and Orangeburg.
The school children marched down,
and augmented the crowd' to greet the
boosters. At the court house steps,
Dr. J. B. Black presided, and introduced
Hon. B. D. Carter to welcome
the visitors. Mr. Carter extended a
royal and warm welcome to the city,
and extended an invitation to any
of the boosters to make Bamberg
^ ^ l- - l ? - J iU .
their home, un Denan 01 uie uuwsiers,
short and stirring talks were
made by Messrs. Lillard, Otis, and
LaCoste Evans, who exploited the
trade and business of Columbia, and
invited the people of the county to
visit the capitaUcity and spend their
money there for things which .could
not be bought in Bamberg. The
boosters had with them a band that
furnished music for the occasion, and
circular matter and advertising
novelties were distributed.

THE OUTLOOK.
By the Observer.
I read the other day a clipping taken
from a Chicago newspaper, the
Chicago Tribune, in which it gave a
a most scathing denunciation against
the whole South. The anger of the
Tribune seems to have been wrought
up over the lynching of Leo M.
Frank, the famous Georgia prisoner.
Now I would not condone the lynch
ing of Frank, or any of the alleged
persecutions against him, for I think
it was a horrible affair; but I believe
most staunchly that the lynching of
this man came as a result of such outside
interference as this Chicago
newspaper seeks to hand the South.
To begin with, the Frank case was
taken up by the Northern newspapers,
and Frank was held up as a
martyr?which was the veriest rot.
Frank was duly tried and convicted
under our courts, and this trial was
upheld as legal and fair by every
court in the land. In spite of all
this, however, the Northern papers
\
continued to hand out scathing denunciations
of our courts and citizens.
The people of the South resent
such interference, and this no
doubt led to the lynching of this
man.
All this talk about Frank being
convicted and finally lynched because
he was a Jew is about the biggest rot
I ever heard of. Why everybody
knows that the Jews are good folks.
Some of the best friends I ever had
were Jews, and the fact that Frank
was a Jew, if it had any b.earing at
all, which is not probable, no doubt
contributed a doubt as to his guilt,
and all the doubt that perhaps has
ever been felt wras influenced by his
nationality.
That was a goodly crowd of goodly
men who came down from Columbia
Monday. I think everybody enjoyed
the visit of the Columbia boosters,
and fel? after they left that the ties
between Columbia and Bamberg were
closer. South Carolina is a big fami
ly, and we feel proud of the advance-1
ment and attainments of any city or
county in it. We all feel proud of
Columbia, and, as Bert Carter said,"
Columbia is the best town in the,'State
outside of Bamberg. And it is
a mighty good idea to "get-together" |
once in a while. I think that the,
merchants and citizens should spend.
their money in Columb^?that is if :
they can't spend it for what they:
want in Bamberg. Columbia is a,1
fine place, and is growing rapidly, j
and everybody should feel proud of
the State's capital.
But before you send your money j
to Columbia, Charleston, Augusta, or,
any other place, be sure that youj
can't buy what you want in Bamberg.
The slogan of the Columbia boosters:
is "Carolina first," and that is good, j
very good. But for Bamberg, ourj
slogan should be "Bamberg first"
-_J -lt " nun in. I
ana men v^tti univx uiou. wux .u .
terests lie in this city. We must all,
or at least the most of us, must make
our living here.
There is entirely too much money
sent out of Bamberg for things that
can be had here. It is a habit with
some people to send away for their
supplies of every kind. They think
because a salesman comes around
representing a "foreign" house, that
the goods must be better, and cheaper,
when frequently it is the other
way around. You can always remember
that a salesman has big expenses,
and somebody must pay these
expenses. Who pays? Does the
| manufacturer pay out of his profits,
or do the buyers pay the expenses
in the price they pay for the goods?
J - If a person in Bamberg puts his
money into a store, or any other kind
I of business, and makes it a credit to
I th? town, is it not right to patronize
that person? We all feel a pride in
our town. If you don't feel a pride
in it, then the town could very well
get along without you. Well, if you
do feel a pride in things that go toward
making the town a better place
to live in, then you should certainly
help along any enterprise or store
that supplies your wants and needs.
So when you want to buy the next
time, visit every place in Bamberg
where you will be likely to find what
you want, and buy here. You are
due that much to Bamberg, if you
ever expect it to attain importance.

Hustling Town is Denmark.
Announcing the Columbia booster
trip, the Sunday State had this to ^
say of Denmark: ?
Denmark is a town of about 1,250
inhabitants, situated at the intersection
of the South's three greatest
trunk lines?Seaboard, Atlantic Coast
t _ _ _ r* a. ^ i i
L.me ana fcouinern raii\%a\s?01 j
miles from Columbia, 56 miles from ^
Augusta, 81 miles from Charleston
and 91 miles from Savannah. Denmark
has unexcelled railway facilities.
Eighteen passenger trains ar- g
rive and depart from this place daily. 1
Among the enterprises of which
Denmark boasts are: The Citizens' *
Exchange bank, Bank of Denmark, i
Denmark Oil & Fertilizer Co., Den- ]
mark ginnery, electric light plant
with all night service, ice factfljf
(owned by the Carolina Public Ser- JT
vice company, of Columbia), Coca
Cola bottling plant. Edisto Iron
works, with foundry, two wragon v
shops, two garages and 30 hardware,
grocery, dry goods, millinery and
drug 6tores. The Denmark high j
school was built in 1908 at a cost A
of $15,000, and is one of the most 9
complete and finely equipped buildings
of its kind in this portion of the
State. The Voorhees Industrial
school with over 300 boarding students
is situated near here.
Three religious denominations are
represented in Denmark, the Metho- 4 ^
dist and Baptist churches being sit- ,
uated on Beech avenue and the Pres- .
byterian at the corner of Maple avenue
and Fourth street.
Electric lights were installed dur- j
ing the administration of Mayor J. 1
Wesley Crum, Jr., and a movement is
now on foot to vote on the issue of
bond6 for waterworks and sewerage. ^
Denmark has an unlimited amount
of brick and tile clays awaiting de- |
velopment. That buildings con\
structed of this material will stand
the test of time is proved by struc- \
tures built of local brick which have
been standing 60 years. Denmark .Tg
has a fertile back country with great,
cotton possibilities. c 1

One of, the earliest locomotives
operated on lines now making up the ^
Southern railway, and indeed one of
the first operated ih the United , ,>
States, was the "Cincinnati/' one of
three locomotives designed for the
South Carolina Railroad company, gjjj
now the Southern from Augusta to <
Charleston, in October, 1835, by Horatio
Allen and built by "Tayleur of ^
England" as the builder was modestly
styled on the original print which
is now in the achives of Southern ^
Railway company.
The "Cincinnati" was constructed
at the Vulcan foundry, Warrington,
its serial number being 20. The only
dimensions of the ".Cincinnati"
given on the print are the following: *
Cylinders 10 by 16 inches, drivers
64 inches, track gauge 60 inches? *
so that it was at least wider than
present day Southern railway locomotives,
if diminutive by compari- *
son in other respects.
The two counterparts of the "Cincinnati"
were named the "Kentucky" ,
and the "Allen," thjb last supposedly ^
in honor of their designer. The \
names, "Cincinnati" and "Kentucky,"
are significant of the purpose
of the projectors of the South Carolina
railroad to build a railroad from 1 ?
Charleston to the Ohio river. This
plan, of which Robert Y. Hayne was
the leading exponent, was carried .
out many years later by the Southern ^
railway and the "Carolina Special,"
a high class modern passenger train *
between Charleston and Cincinnati,
is running every day over the same
line on which the "Cincinnati," the
"Kentucky" and the "Al^n" saw
service in 1835. . 1
