Cotton Opening Fasfc^
One taking a ride through the
country around Bamberg is on every
hand confronted by fields of cotton
white unto harvest. The recent hot
weather has opened the fleecy staple
in a sw;ft manner, and the only obstacle
in the way of early marketing
of cotton is the shortage of labor.
Already exhorbitant prices are being
paid in some sections in an endeavor
to get hands to pick cotton.
Last week 11 bales were ginned
by the Cotton Oil Company, and quite
a few by the Farmers Gin Company.
These bales were sold on the local
market for around thirty cents the
pound. Within the next week or two
the gins will be running full time,
and turning out the baled product to
full capacity.
Within the past two weeks the
cotton crop has met with serious deterioration.
Several farmers have
given it as their opinion that the crop
has deteriorated at least twenty-five
per cent, from the hot drought. Up i
to three weeks ago this county had
prospects of the best crop in years,
?il-lw. AM ill AVI loof XTAO P
pussiuiy eveu ucuci mau iaot ;?<*?.
But the plant has "thrown off" fruit
rapidly as a result of the hot wave.
Refreshing showers have fallen in
many places throughout the county
this week, and this will doubtless
be of considerable benefit to cotton,
especially to the young crops.
^ <?> ^ Pliskin-Zimmerman.
Mr. Sam Zimmerman, of this city,
was married in Orangeburg on Tuesday,
August 13th, to Miss Anna Pliskin,
of that city. Invitations have
been issued to the after wedding reception
at the home of the bride, 22
Lowman street, Orangeburg, on next
Sunday evening. Mr. and Mrs. Zimmerman
will be at home in Bamberg
after August 25th.
Domestic Science Club.
\
The Domestic Science club met at
the Mayflower Inn Wednesday morning,
August 14th, at 10 o'clock with
a good attendance. Mrs. B. W.
Faust, the county home demonstration
agent, introduced Miss Laura
Bailey, of Winthrop college, one of
the assistant State agents. The subject
of the meeting was sugar subsitutes.
Miss Bailey talked on the
uses of honey, cane syrup, and corn
syrup in the place of sugar, and gave
instructions in the use of these. The
practical demonstration consisted in
the.making of honey cake, no sugar
being used. The ladies present showed
great interest in the demonstration,
and the cake was enjoyed by
all present.
Letter from Grimes Hutto.
Private Grimes Hutto, Oo. E.,
304th infantry, who is now overseas,
writes his brother, Mr. U. G. Hutto,
as follows:
"Dear Brother:?I am well and*
getting along fine as anybody can
and hope you and all the folks are
having good health and the best of
luck.
"You must write every chance

is at home, and also send me
William's address again, as I have
lost it, and don't know what it is.
Have you heard from him lately?
"If you can I wish" you would
get me a copy of The Herald and
send to me every no\y and then. I
suppose I would get it O. K. Hope
you got the suit case all right. Well,
I guess I will have to stop as there
is not much to write. Give my love
to all. Your devoted brother,
"GRIMES.
"P. S.?Give all the boys my best
regards."
Grimes's desire to read The Herald
has been granted, and as soon
as Uncle Sam can deliver it to hom
he will receive it regularly. By the
way, if you have a boy in France or
in camp, you will be doing him an
injustice if?you do not send him The
Herald regularly.. And 3 subscription
to The Herald will not cost you
more than the postage it takes for
you to mail it yourself.
AutomoMle Stolen.
Last Saturday night, or rather
early Sunday morning, some unknown
parties stole Mr. W. P.'Herndon's
automobile, which was parked
in front of his residence on New
Bridge street. All efforts to recover
the stolen car had been unavailing
no to yesterday morning. The car
had been put into trim for a trip
Sunday morning, and the thieves
happened to the best kind of luck.
l>r. .). M. Love, who resides next
door to Mr. Herndon's residence, also
had his car parked in front of his
home, right near Mr. Herndon's car.
Dr. Love was trying to beat the hot
wave by sleeping upon his front
porch, and during the night, about
1:30 o'clock, he saw some one who
had the appearance of being a negro
soldier, walking around his car.
Upon hearing some noise the party
^ ^ ^rtn/1 Tfc*? T ava cqtx' o n At Vior
illaut? UU, auu XSl . uu w Ctt ?? uuutuvi
party nearby. It is thought that
these same parties returned later
and secured Mr. Herndon's car.
Mr. Frank Folk, who resides at
Mr. Herndon's home, heard the car
when the engine was started, and
upon investigating saw the car leaving.
He immediately \|oke Dr. Love
and the two followed as quickly as
possible, but they never even came
in sight of the fleeing thieves. A
telephone message was sent- to
Orangeburg requesting the night policeman
at that place to intercept the
car when it reached Orangeburg, but
when Mr. Folk and Dr. Love reached
Orangeburg, they state that they
found the night policeman asleep,
and the thief had doubtless passed
in the mean time. Mr.' Folk continued
the trail, following it to St.
Matthews, where it was lost.'
It? is thought that two negro soldiers
from one of the training camps
stole the car perhaps in order to get
back to camp. Numerous incidents
of this kind have been reported *rom
other parts of the State.
Countv Campaien Closes.
The county campaign closed Tuesday,
when the last meeting od the
itinerary was held in the court house 1
in Bamberg. The meeting was attended
by about 100 voters, and perhaps
twenty-five ladies and children.
Each one of the candidates was given
a very respectful hearing, and the
meeting was uneventful.
Candidates for county commisioner
were the first to speak, and candidates
for the legislature spoke last.
Most of the candidates spent a good
portion of their time in discussing
the war and declaring * their attitude
toward it and the administration.
Nearly all the candidates were
well received and were liberally applauded.
Colored Soldier Killed in France.
The first colored soldier from
Barmberg county to give his life in the
cause of liberty on the battlefields
of France was Corporal Alonzo
Kearse, of Ehrhardt. Relatives of
Corporal Kearse received a telegram
from the war department on Saturday
advising them of the death of
of the colored soldier, and the casualty
list published Monday contained
his name among those killed in action.
Alonzo Kearse was a selectman
from this county, and he was drafted
into the army last February.
Soon thereafter he was included in a
oaInAnfirxrAnf + a crr\ trv
L/U IV 5V tv X
That he was an exemplary soldier is
sbown by the fact that he had been
promoted to corporal. No details
have; of course, been given concerning
his death other than that he was
killed in action.
This is the second Bamberg county
soldier to meet death ]n action
in France, the other bding Riley
G. Cope, a white volunteer from this
city.
d .A
Primary Election Next Tuesday.
The biennial primary election will
be held in this State on August 27th,
next Tuesday. Second and third primaries,
if necessary, are held two
and four weeks after the first primary.
In view of the fact that candidates
for State offices have injected
the issue of the war into the
campaign, there is more than ordinary
interest in the primary this
year.
Following our usual custom, The
Herald will be issued one day earlier
next week. The paper will be mailed
Wednesday morning, containing as
full returns as it is possible to secure.
You should receive your next
wefR's Herald one day earlier than
you usually do.
The Australian ballot system will
be employed this year for the first
time in this county. Five clubs are
affected by this law: Bamberg, EhrI
3 4. AK ? J T\ ^-1. K x
narui, wiar, uuvau aiiu ueuumrK. ai
each of these places only numbered
ballots will be given voters, and the
ballot must be voted in accordance
with the rules printed in the notice
of election which appears on another
page of this paper. All voters
and managers will do well to read
these rules carefully before going to
the polls next Tuesday.
County S. S. Convention. ]
The annual codnty Sunday-school 1
convention of Bamberg county will

They will address the convention j
Sunday morning and afternoon. i
All Sunday-schools in the county <
are invited to tfend their best workers i
to this convention. It is expected ?

Returns to Washington.
Congressman James F. Byrnes was
in the city Saturday., shaking hands
with his many friendsi here. Congressman
Byrnes stated that he was s
leaving the following day for Wash- t
ington to be present at the opening ?
of congress Monday morning. Con- c
gress recently has been holding re- E
cess sessions, and Mr. Byrnes took 3
advantage of the opportunity to ad- *
dress the voters of the district. However,
now that several matters of *
grave importance are up for consid- E
eration in the house, Mr. Byrnes con- ^
siders that his duty carries him to r
his post. The revenue bill and the 3
man-power measure are two of the ?
most important matters now before r
congress, and although the primary E
election is to be held next Tuesday, ^
Mr. Byrnes feels that he should leave E
his interests in the campaign to his
friends and return to his duties in 3
Washington. The life of a faithful r
congressman, such as Mr. Byrnes has E
proved himself, is arduous at its best, I
knd when a district gets a bood man 3
in the place it is well enough to let E
him stay there, as it is a well known *
fact that it requires many years to c
attain the position of prominence and E
influence that Congressman Byrnes ^
now possesses. Mr. Byrnes feels con- T
fident that he will be reelected on
the first ballot.
Death of Walter Richardson.
Mr. L. Walter Richardson, a promi- I
nent citizen of the Brier Creek sec- c
tion of the county, died at his home s
last Saturday afternoon, after an ill- ?
ness of several days. The remains i
were interred Sunday at Edisto. The r
deceased is survived by his widow, c
who was Miss Stokes before her mar- c
riage, and two children. Mr. Rich- t
ardson was 45 years old, and was a c
son of the late Mr. Tom Richadson. I
He was a good citizen, and claimed t
the respect and friendship of a large
circle of acquaintances.
LETTERS FROM DR. C. B. RAV.
Was in Recent Allied Drive.?Ground
Strewn With German Dead.
Following are excerpts from recent
letters from Dr. C. B. Ray, of
Dlar, to his family. Dr. Ray was in
the midst of the recent Allied drive,
and tells in a most interesting manner
some of the things he saw:
France, July 21.?We are still
leading a fairly contented existence
in this forest and I really enjoy living
in this deserted farm house.
With the exception of having been
under shell fire from the long range
?uns for 16 hours at one time and
tiaving a few bombs dropped from
airplanes too close our quarters for
any real comfort, it is exceedingly
juiet out here. We are out of communication
with civilization and
nail comes and goes by chance. Here
is a messenger with orders to be
ready to move at a certain hour on a
certain date, so I'll soon be on the
"oad to somewhere else. The Boche
ire still retreating and of course we
nust follow him.
July 22.?Up early ready to move.
The Boche still on th^ run and we
ire so happy over this advance.
We'll soon .be where the Huns were
i few hours ago. Seeing history in
ts making is an experience to be appreciated.
Here is the remainder of
i small town where severe fighting
;ook place. All that is left of it is a
leap of stone. Along the roadside
ire large numbers of unburied Gfernans.
The roads are barely passible
because there are great holes
nade by the big guns, and the woods
ilong the roadside are literally torn
:o pieces. We have arrired at what
ivas a town of twenty-five or thirty
:housand population. There are no
jivilians here and the town itself is
iestroyed. We entered this town 24
lours after the Boche left it. Folowing
a retreating army is a sensa:ion
too thrilling for description.
August 2.?Within a few days I
vill have been absent a whole year,
ind the prospects of returning soon
ire not at all brilliant just now.The
division to which I belong lias
)een in the line since February l,
tnd it is rumored we are soon to be
sent back for a much needed rest.
The men who bore the brunt of the
ecent advance, have bee^i face to
'ace with war in its real form, and it
s for them I would welcome a period
>f repose. The American soldiers
:an't be beat. They have the most
vonderful spirit and to hear them
;alk you would think they really eniov
the sport of killing the Huns.
The infantry and artillery by their
emarkable dash, bravery, courage
ind fighting qualities have won the
)raise and admiration of. such veterms
as the French, a record of which
hey should justly be proud. Don't
vorry about me, or think of me as
jeing in much danger or suffering
my hardships, for I am getting on
amously. Life in a magnificent
French chateau doesn't sound bad,
loes it? The Allies seem to have
he supremacy in the air in this secor
for very few German machines
some over, and those that do usually
tay. Just a few days ago two Bocae
nachines* were driven down quite
lear here. Love to all. CECIL. J
Tobacco Warehouse in Sight.
Application has been made to the
ecretary of State for a charter for
he Farmers Tobacco Warehouse of
iamberg, with a capital stock of $10,
00. The books of subscription are
iow open at C. R. Brabham's Sons,
ind it is hoped the full amount will
>e subscribed at once.
The planting of tobacco in Bam>erg
county is no longer an experiuent.
It has proved to be immense7
successful the first year, and prepaations
are being made to plant on
. much larger scale next season.
!ome of the leading planters here,
ealizing the imperative need of a
oarket in Bamberg for the local proluct,
have made the preliminary
ilans for the building of a warelouse.
It is quite certain that the
.creage next year will not only warant
the biulding of, a warehouse,
lut bids fair to make the concern a
irofitable investment. With a suit.ble
warehouse in Bamberg, the
narketing of the crop will be faciliated
in a much more profitable and
onvenient manner, and insure to the
lanters a more ready market than
?y having to ship to some distant
varehouse.
W. M. U. Auxiliary Meeting.
The W. M. U. Auxiliary of the
3a rn well association and all junior
>rganizations, will meet in annual
ession at Friendship Baptist church
leptember 3rd and 4th. All churches
n the association are urged to send
epresentatives, whether they have
>rganized societies or not. The work
>f the Southern Baptist women and
heir aims will be ably discussed by
>ur State officers and women of the
3arnwell association. Services will
>egin promptly at eleven o'clock.

| AT WORK OX MAX-POWER BILL.
!
[ Both Holies Hope to Pass the Meas,
ure this Week.
Washington, Aug. 20.?Both senate
and house will begin consideration
of the man-power bill, extending
the army draft age limits to 18
and 45 years, next Thursday under
plans completed late today, in a race
to complete the /legislation as soon
as possible.
With the bill ready for senate debate
Thursday, the house committee
late today closed its hearings and
virtually completed the measure.
The bill, according to the committee's
plans, will be reported to the
house tomorrow?with an amendment
to defer service of youths 18
and 19 ye" , of age until all others
are called?and discussed in the
house Thursday. An agreement with
Speaker Clark and Representative
Sims, of Tennessee, in charge of the
pending man-power bill, to give the
man-power measure right of way
Thursday, was secured today by
Chairman Dent, who believes the
draft bill can be passed in a single
day.
Passage this Week.
Passage of the bill in the house
Thursday and in the senate by Saturday
is planned by leaders.
Vigorous contests, however, are
expected in both branches. In the
senate sharp debate is expected on
the "work or fight" amendment,
while in the house a contest is brewing
over the committee's amendment
to defer calling boys of 18 and-19
years, a mandatory provision which
Secretary Baker, Gen. March, chief
of staff, and Provost Marshall General*
Crowder have vigorously oppbsed.
With both senate and house
committees pledged to lowering the
age minimum to 18 years, it appears
the age limits will be fixed i
as recommended by the war department.
Sentiment in Congress.
Sentiment in congress against calling
youths found expression today'
in the house committee's amendments.
After a stormy session, in
which Representative Kahn, of Cal
ifornia, led the fight, which he promised
to renew on the house floor, to
t A 4 ft V 1% a rv r) mm a ? a a > a
lciaiu lug auuixuistiitiiuu mtJitsuxe
provision giving the president discretion
to fix the order of calls*for
all men within the new draft limits,
the committee voted 9 to 7, to write
in an amendment offered by Representative
MoKenzie, of Illinois, Republican,
providing that all men 20
years and above shall be called before
those of 19 and 18 years, with
the 18-year-old youths to be called
last. The last amendment makes
mandatory what Secretary Baker has
indicated will be the policy of the ,
war department.
The McKenzie Amendment.
The McKenzie amendment reads:
"Provided, however, that registrants
of the age of 19 years and not
over 20 shall be designated as 'class
19' and shall be drafted subsequent ^
to registrants of the age of 20 and
over 20 years; and registrants of the
age of 18 years and not over 19
years shall be designated as 'class
18,' and shall be called for service
last; those registrants above the age
of 20 shail be called prior to those
in the classes hereby created."
Representative Kahn and those
joining with him in support of the
administration provisions vesting
authority in .the president to establish
the order of\ calls reserved the
right to oppose the McKenzie amendment
pfa the floor of the house and
expressed belief that the amendment
would be rejected. Chairman Dent
and others of the committee, who expressed
themselves as dissatisfied
with Secretary Baker's promise to
make regulations for a separate class
for 18-year-old boys and defer their
call as long as possible, however, are
confident the house will retain, the
amendment.
German Losses Are Heavy.
The proportion of the German loss- /'
es to those of the Allies since August
8 is greater than at any other
period of the war, it was announced
in London. It is said that the total
Allied casualties will not be as large,
as the number of Germans taken
prisoner.
