?bePamfcergSNralb ESTABLISHED APRIL, 1891. Thursday, May 2, 1918. It is generally agreed that there has been no election year in many moons in which so little interest has been manifested in politics up to this time. We take this to be a good omen. The people have other things to thing about. We take it to mean, also, that flabbergast politicians will not have much opportunity to make an impression this year. Ana tnis win ue guuu, iuu. o6? "lis ne passeront pas." That is a French sentence everybody ought to memorize and ever keep in mind. It means "They shall not pass!" It was first used at the battle of the Marne, and the Germans did not pass. When world democracy is established, it should be borne in mind that it was largely through the passing of this sentence from French mouth to mouth when it appeared that ho power on earth at that time could keep the Germans out of Paris. But they did liot pass. ^ i>> ? v We hope the State Democratic convention will vote this year to do . away with the county-to-county canvass. It failed of passage two years ago, but it is $o be hoped that the fight will he renewed. This is no time to go into hysterics over politics. These biennial farces do little but arouse petty jealousies and factional feeling, from which the State is now completely free. We should like to see the time when men may J? ?1.?. "Ti/1 vntn n-itVinut ro. gu IU Lilt? PUHO a JLI U ? VCV MAHiVUW 4 V gard to faction, and the doing away ' with the county-to-county canvass will be a step nearer this desired state of affairs. i i ? Of course all this war finance is , is beyond the average American. We simply cannot comprehend the magnitude of it. This is all the more reason why we should subscribe to bonds and buy stamps to the limit. Don't stop with buying one bond or \ a thousand dollars worth, if you can get hold of more money. The big' ness of the thing may be realized from the statement that the $200,0005 (or thereabouts) subscribed in bonds in this county will run the whole war just 12 minutes. That , is all that is expected of Bamberg! in this loan drive, to run the war just 12 minutes. And, if we can double our allotment, we can make the government a present of funds enough to run it 12 minutes longer. If every county would do this, financial matters would not worry Washington. ITie liberty bond campaign is now drawing to a close. There remain but a few days in which work can bp done. Every committee, and each v individial member of the committees, is nrced to do their verv best during the refining few days. Bamberg county is already oversubcribed. Let's double the allotment, if possible. There.is plenty of money in Bamberg county, and there is no better investment in the world than government bonds. When bonds become valueless, nothing else will be ^ worth while. The county has already done fine, and the people are to be congratulated. It is one of the first counties in the State to go over the top. Now that we are over the top, let's make the charge that spells ' victory. The farther the advance we make in the liberty loan the farther the boys can go after they have , gone over the top. Let's not stop until they are completely to Berlin. Both Guilty. ? An Irishman who had only been here for a few days was invited to take an automobile ride with a friend. They were going through a country road uf high speed, when a traffic noliceman on the lookout for speeders gave chase on his motorcycle. He caught up with them and announced : "You're pinched for speeding." "Pinched for speeding?" repeated the Irishman. "Begorra, wasn't yer going as fast as us yourself?"? Yohkers Gazette. m f > ? Two per cent, of the enlisted personnel of the divisions and detached units of the regular army, national guard and national army, excepting the coast artillery and various staff corps, will be designated to attend the fourth series of officers' training schools, which will open May 15. Admission. has also been granted to some men who have had at least one year's military training under army officers at educational institutions which have earned government recognition. Millions of dollars, it is estimated by revenue officials, will be added to the government funds in penalties as a round-up of income tax delinquents by the bureau of internal revenue. j REMEtlBERy SBM)ff-?SglSS? nONM??4SS TUESM* WUMSM~%i?Z I FOOD m win mPi THE IMUIII'# WAK 1 SUNDAY" ONX MEAT jfT' WHEATLESS Jsjlp USX NO EREAIX CRACKEIOS. 11111 ftuM IASWC as.

NOT AN ISOLATED CASE Many Similar Cases in Bamberg and Vicinity. This Bamberg woman's story given here is not an isolated case by any means; week after week, year after year, our neighbors are telling similar good news. Mrs. C. E. Simmons. New Bridge St., Bamberg, says: "Several years ago my kidneys were in poor, weak and unhealthy condition for a long time. I suffered awfully. My back hurt me so badly that I would sometimes have to press my hands upon it to ease tihe pain. The action ot mv kidnevs wasn't right and my hands and ankles often swelled. 1 always felt tired out, depressed and miserable and a-ched all over my body. This is the way I was suffering when I started using Doan's Kidney Pills. I got them from Macks Drug Store and they brought me relief from the start. In a short while, they rid me of all this trouble. Every time I hear anyone complain of their kidneys -now 1 advise them to use Doan's Kidney Pills." Price 60c, at all dealers.
