ESTABLISHED APRIL, 1891.
Thursday, October 18, 1917.
Speaking of food conservation, il
all those parasites traveling around
as fortune tellers and such "professions"
were put to work and made
to earn an honest living, it would
help along a little.
******
That was a handsome act of Mr.
S. G. Mayfield at the meeting Tuesday,
when he offered a motion for a
vote of confidence to Congressman
Byrnes for his course in congress
with reference to the war with Germany.
The resolution shows to the
world that Bamberg people are
squarely behind the president and
congress in the present crisis, and is
a further expression of their loyalty
and patriotism.
******
There is no doubt in our mind that
a majority of the people of the State
not only desire but demand that Senator
Tillman return to the United
States senate next year. This is 110
time to talk about a change. Even
scores of citizens who have the best
interests of the State at heart, and
who are not old-time followers of
Tillman, realize that during the present
crisis it would not do to put a
new man into harness. The senator
has served the State for 24 years,
and has thus gained an influence in
the senate that the State cannot af
ford to lose at this time. There is
also logic in the statement that an
active man should make the race.
This Senator Tillman may be unable
to do, and if it is a fact next year
that the senator is not physically
strong enough to wage an aggressive
campaign, why not some one make
the canvass for him? This has been
don? before, when it was considered
necessary. If the State's interests
demand the return of Senator Tillman,
there are men in the State who
have the ability to do the campaigning
and who should be patriotic and!
public-spirited enough to do it.
******
Farmers are now receiving war'
prices for their cotton. It is nothing
less than their duty to invest a portion
of their war profits in Liberty
bonds. The farmers are more pros-i
.perous than anybody else in the!
South, and their prosperity is a di-|
rect result of the war. It is to be;
borne in mind that they are not giv-j
ing the government a cent by buying!
bonds; rather they are making an!
excellent investment paying four per
cent, interest. It is a splendid way to
lay aside some savings, and at the
same time help to win the war. Money j
is the great factor in the present
war. The several million Allied troops!
fighting in the trenches cannot be sus- j
tained except by the expenditure of j
millions of dollars in supplying am-;
munition and equipment. The^prob-i
able reason for the present great offensive,
which has been pushed with
so much success, is American money
subscribed during the last Liberty
loan. Heretofore it has not been
possible for the Allies to launch an
offensive and keep it up for the lack
of ammunition. The entrance Of
America "with her millions has enabled
the British and French to get
plenty of munitions, we can reau
the result in the papers every day.
Every dollar invested in bonds hastens;
the end of the war.

Whistler, the famous artist, once
invited Mark Twain to visit his studio
to see a new painting he was!
just finishing. The humorist examined
the canvas for some time in silence,
then said, "I'd do away with
that cloud if I were you," and extended
his hand carelessly toward one
corner of the picture as though about
'to smudge out a cloud effect. Whistler
cried out nervously: "Gad, sir,
be careful! Don't you see the paint
is still wet!"
"Oh, that doesn't matter," said
Mark, "I've got my gloves on."?Jack

Horse Still Has His Part in War.
We go forward on foot into a region
where the only vehicles are .the
l^Ticr nf artillery caissons, oblong
AVAA? aamvm V.. ? ? - _
steel boxes filled with shell, which
are horse drawn, and the water carts
which are horse drawn also. For
the horse still lias his part in war?
a bold one as it ever was. As he can
pass over rough ground he goes into
ares where no motor vehicle except
the armored motor cars called "tanks"
may go. In the machinery of killing
he is still man's friend. He brings
a touch of life other than human
into that dead world.?Collier's.
On Conspiracy Charge.
New York, October 15.?A man
who gave his name as William J.
Dunbar was arrested here tonight
by the police charged with conspiracy
to obtain information against the
United States through enlistment in
the army and navy. He was turned
over to the federal authorities.
\ KG ROES AT THE CAMPS.
A Sen*ible Appeal to All the People
, of the South.
Today the negro selectmen will begin
reporting at Camp Gordon to
prepare themselves for service in uniform
under the American flag.
They are coming exclusively from
points in the South?they are our
own Southern negroes, born and reared
among us, and essentially a part
of the man-power of the South. They
are the "cotton-picking" negroes; the
descendants of those faithful slavefolk,
who, during the civil war, gave
to the world an unparalleled demonstration
of loyalty by faithfully guardind
and ministering to the needs of
the dependent women, children and
mon tvhiio tiip ranahlp manhood
Viu liXVU ?> -
of the Confederacy was away on the
battlefields.
Actuated by the atrocious riots of
colored regulars at Brownsville, Texas,
some years ago, and at Auburn,
Texas, only recently, there has been
some expressions of misgivings about
the wisdom of assigning of negro selected
men for training in any Southern
cantonment.
! However, if officered as the recruits
will be, by men of tact, firmness, reason
and executive ability, there need
be no apprehension of trouble at
Camp Gordon, nor in Atlanta, if the
civilian population, in its demeanor
toward the colored men in uniform, is
governed only by the spirit of patriotism
and common sense.

people, in the service and out of it,
are fully imbued with the fact that
their race is on trial before the nation
today as never before in its freedom;
and that its happiness in the future
hinges in no small measure upon the
,record it shall make during the period
of national stress in the face of
a foreign enemy. And there is plenty
of evidence going to show that the
negroes are fully cognizant of this,
and that there is a deep-seated determination
among them to make
that record a good and creditable one.
As to the white civilians on the
street, they will do well not to lose
sight of the fact that every colored
man in khaki is filling a place that
otherwise a white man would have to
fill; that he is prepared to face dangers
that otherwise a white man
would have to face, and that many
of them, perhaps, will lose their lives
on battlefields?lives as sweet to
them as the white man's life is to
u:
mm.
The negro in the service is, like the
white man in the same service, in it
j because his country needs and has
called him there; and in entering it
j he is under the same honorable obligation
to do and to die, if necessary,
for his flag and his country's honor.
And if these things are taken into
J full consideration, and the proper
[ spirit of tolerance and the proper
decorum is manifested by both whites
| and negroes, each race deporting itself
according to the principles of
reason, justice and moderation, Camp
Gordon will turn out a complement
| of as fine colored troops as ever stood
I in uniform, and of which the South
and the entire nation will be proud.
And it will have been done without
a ripple of racial discord.?Atlanta

Health Restored by Yitona After All
Other Medicines Failed:?Feels
Young Again.
"I am the happiest man in
Columbia today and I want to tell
the public it's all because of what
this Vitona has done for me," said
John Wesley Gay. Mr. Gay lives at
2229 Laurel street and is a wellknown
coach carpenter for the Southern
Railway.
1 "I have never spent money to
better advantage in my life than when
I bought Vitona," he continued, "for
it overcame troubles that had been
pulling me down for the past three
or four years. I had serious kidney
trouble which brought on rheumatism
and I had an awful time of
it. My stomach was also in bad
condition. I had no appetite, was
nervous and couldn't sleep well. I
had pains in my side, shoulders and
neck, and my condition became so
bad it was all i couia ao to stay on
my job. I tried all kinds of Medicines
and was under treatment of
doctors, but nothing seemed to reach
my case and I kept getting worse.
"I heard about Vitona and decided
to try it, but had very little faith in
it doing me any good. I began to
feel an improvement before half the
bottle was finished and I now feel
like a different man. The rheumatism
has dis appeared, the pains have left
my sides and neck and I feel like I
did when a young man. My stomach
is in good condition and my kidneys
no longer bother me. I'm not nervous
like I was, my sleep is sound
and restful and my appetite is good.
Vitona is the finest thing of its kind
I've ever seen and I am more than
delighted with the results. I think
everybody suffering with kidney trouble
should know of this wonderful
remedy."
' Vitona is now sold at Mack's Drug
Store, Bamberg; also Peoples Pharmacy
at Denmark, and J. H. Roberts,
at Ehrhardt.
