ESTABLISHKI) APRIL. 1891.
Thursday, June 28, 1917.
We don't like to make excuses, but
it is a mere statement of fact to say
that we are still working under ex-j
treme difficulty in The Herald office. j
The cement contractor, Mr. Nichols,
completed his work all right, and The
Herald now has a fine concrete floor,
but we are pretty badly crippled.
Our office, being modern!}* equipped,
is supplied with individual motors.
We have six of them. Two )f them
refuse to "go:" one press is broken
so badly that it will pprobablv have
to be replaced by a new one: another
press is "charged" so strongly with
electricity that it is not safe to operate
it, and it is impossible to operate
the linotype at night (unless the operator
is thoroughly "insulated") because
this machine, while operated j
by city current, is also charged up.
But we hope to have everything
straightened out soon, and we will J
get down to regular work once more.
Everybody admires a game loser.
The following letter appeared in the
Charleston American a few days ago,
over the signature of "John Richardson,"
who pleases to style himself an
"old time Bleaseite." The letter is
addressed to "Cole L. Blease, Esq.,
chairman, Columbia, S. C.:"
Dear Sir:?I am a "reformer." You
have been our "standard bearer," but
I must say I am greatly surprised at
your protesting Governor Manning's
appointments for selective committee.
When you were governor of South
Carolina, your "slogan" was "none
need apply for office or appointment
except he be a Bleaseite." Yon stated
time and again on stump and in papers
that "only Bleaseites would be
recognized and "d " those who
opposed you.
Now the shoe is on the other foot
and you are raising h because
Governor Manning has appointed his
friends and only a few Bleaseites.
"Small favors thankfully received."
I am ashamed of you, "Coley." I am
*with you, and for God's sake be a
man. Don't whine?you can't always
be the "boss." I am afraid
Brother Grace is leading you into
treacherous paths. We made the
fight?we lost?so take your licking
like a man and wait till you "catch
'em" right.
The Aiken Journal and Review in
its last issue contained an item of
news that is likely to be misleading.
It is headed "Aiken County Leads
the State," and states that the Aiken
recruiting office has won the blue ribbon
for securing the largest number
of recruits. It may be true, and
doubtless is, that the Aiken recruiting
office has secured the largest proportionate
number of recruits, but the
recruits must not have come from
Aiken county, for, according to a
statement given out by the government
for enlistments during the period
of April 1 to June 13, Aiken
county recruits numbered 17 out of
an allotment of 84. Bamberg coun
ty recruits numbered 15 out of an
allotment of 3S?thus leading Aiken
county by long odds. In fact, Bamberg
county outnumbered all counties
in the Aiken sub-district, in
which Bamberg county is placed, as
the following figures will show:
Required Obtained
Barnwell 68 6
Bamberg 38 15
Edgefield 56 3
Orangeburg 112 10
Aiken S4 17
Saluda 42 7
The Aiken recruiting office may
lead the State, but Aiken county does
not, according to the official figures.
The Height of Precaution.
"I never saw a man so afraid oi
catching cold as Tompkins is."
"Is he, really?"
"I should say so. Why I've heard
that whenever he takes a bath he
stops up all the holes in the sponge
for fear of draught."?Chicago Herald.
