ESTABLISHED APRIL. 1891.
Thursday, June 13,1918.
During the war savings campaign,
people will be asked to sign pledges
to invest so much in war stamps, and
in addition will be asked to agree to
economize and save. If the spirit
of the war savings proposition is entered
into heartily, it will be the
greatest thing in the way of thrift the
world has even known.
It has been estimated/that up to a
few months ago the annual waste in
food in this country, if utilized,
would be enough to feed an army 01
twelve million men. The wastage
has been greatly decreased within the
past year, and yet there is still a
great waste. There should not be a
morsel of food wasted. The food
situation is already critical, and will
become worse as the war progresses.
i?i
A mighty lot of good gasoline is
being burned uselessly these days.
The day will no doubt come when
gasoline will be sold only for commercial
and industrial purposes, and
while it may deprive automobile
owners of some little pleasure, it will
doubtless be a blessing. Under the
present conditions, it would appear
to be little short of criminal to indiscriminately
use this necessary article
in a perfectly useless manner. Pleasure
rides can be dispensed with, and
probably will have to be.

The fourth drive in the German offensive
campaign begun in March is

_ UUW ill pi Ugl csa, auu iuo lutuui v?
forts of the enemy apparently met
with some success. The fact is not
to be lost sight of, however, that this
is a war of strategy. General Foch
has never given to the public the
slightest inkling of the allied plans,
hut the people may place their confidence
in the leaders on the front.
The gain or loss of territory means
neither victory for one nor defeat for
the other, and we must look at the
situation as a whole. Foch has shown
on occasion that it has been part of
the allied plans to give territory,
where the price exacted was sufficiently
heavy. However, there is no use
to minimize the seriousness of the
situation. It is serious, and will
probably remain serious for some
time to conje. The Germans will be
defeated, of course; that much was
settled more than a year ago. Even
y . though they capture Paris; even
though they envelop the whole of
France in their meshes of frighful- 1
ness, they will be defeated nevertheless.
But the nearer they get to
^ Paris, the longer the war will last.
On August 3rd, 1917, the Yorkville
fy:.- Enquirer, as reprinted by the Columbia
State, reported a former governor
of South Carolina, now a candidate
for United States senator, as
saying in a speech at Filbert, York
county: "They talk about a free
P America. I don't care what kind of
an America it is when I am dead and
gone. Neither does your hoy." On
June 3rd, 1918, the Charleston American
printed a speech made by the
same man a few days prior at Hudson's
Old Mill, Clarendon county, in
which he is reported as saying: "They
say I said there (at Filbert) we did
\
not care what kind of America we
had after we were dead and gone.
They, knew they lied when they said
it." The Yorkville Enquirer is a
newspaper of veracity. We do not
agree wit h its politics, but we do not
believe' it would misquote anybody.
The Enquirer is probably the most
influential newspaper in the State
which lends its support to the former
governor. The former governor made
a graVe blunder when he said he did
not care what kind of America we
have after he is dead and gone, but in
so saying he served the people of
the State in that he revealed to
everybody, his friends included, his
true character. He is now trying to
get out of it, and it appears that he
is willing to sacrifice one of his influential
supporters in the attempt.
What does the Enquirer have to say
about it? Does the Enquirer stand
for this kind of thing? If it does,
we are much surprised, knowing as
we dd the character of newspaper
the Enquirer is.

guns for instruction purposes have
been shipped to every National Guard

troops are in training. Heavy Brownings
for overseas training have been
shipped.
Light Browning rifles sufficient in
number to equip the machine-gun
units of more than four army divisions
have been manufactured, and
overseas shipment of one half has
begun. The other half of the output
goes to army divisions in this
country.

NOT AN ISOLATED CASE
Many Similar Cases in Bamberg and
Vicinity.
This Bamberg woman's story given
here is not an isolated case t>y 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 some-times
have to press my hands upon
ft to ease tihe pain. The action ol
my kidneys wasn't right and my
hands and ankles often, swelled, l
always felt tired oui, depressed and
miserable and aohed all over my
body. This is the way 1/ was suffering
when I started using Doan's
Kidney Pills. I got them from Mack's
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 I advise them to use
Doan's Kidney Pills."
