Wbt Jjfomkrg lieralb ESTABLISHED APRIL, 1891. Published Weekly at Bamberg, S. C. Entered as second-class matter April 1891y under Act of March 3, 1879. $2.00 PER YEAR. Volume 29. No. 30. Thursday, July 22,1920. That fellow, Franklin Roosevelt, is a man we admire. His typb of man means something to this country. Much as we disliked some of the things about President Roosevelt, he hod many qualities that, appealed to the full-blooded American, and his kinsman, Frailklin, possesses many of the same characteristics, without . the bombast of his greater cousin. If Franklin D. Roosevelt is not the president of the United States some day we miss our guess. It is not a credit to Bamberg that only 63 voters of the town were sufficiently interested to vote in the bond 'election Thursday. There are sevy eral hundred voters in Bamberg, and only 63 thought enough about spending $40,000 to even go to the court * house and express themselves about it. If there had been some hot politics the voters would have swarmed to the polls, but when it is a matter of home affairs, there is no interest. In mattery that mean nothing to the town, but in which there is much talk, the people have laid aside their duties for a day to take a part in politics, but in this matter, wherein town .improvements and taxation are involved, the people have not the time nor the inclination to take a few minutes of their .time f . to even express themselves. * Have you yet placed your name on the Democratic rolls? If not, do so at once. Next Tuesday is the last day on which you can enroll. Write your name in full, and don't fail to ^ do the writing yourself. It has come 1J A- * * ^ f/vllrri r\ TO OUT 3U611UUI1 mill man v icnno ai& . in th'e habit of telling the clerk to "go ahead and write it, it is all right/' Thus it is registered that you can't write your name, and this is reflection on yourself and your county and state. No matter how poorly you write, do your own writing. There are not a great many good penmen in the country, and you are not by ^purself if you can't write good. But don't forget to enroll, whether you can write or not. You are part of ^the Democratic party, andi as such it is your duty to enroll and to vote. TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER. ry ? . Some of the suffrage leaders of the country are making quite a spectacle of themselves in their efforts to induce the wily thirty-sixth state to - come across with ratification of woman suffrage. The women must have one more state, and they must have it quick, if they are to vote in the November elections. But when the thirty-fifth state was reached and secured, a snag projected, and the snag persists. It appears that some fine political work will have to be done to get that one state that is now needed so badly. . The women?the suffrage women, we mean?have about exhausted their resources in the effort to get the thirty-sixth state to ratify. They have threatened, cajoled, argued witn ana practically offers to bribe the Dem ocratic and Republican parties. The - two great parties, their eyes hungrily viewing, the 17,000,0^0 women voters in the country, are doing their "darndest" to cop the credit for the women voting next fall. But the matter hangs. Republican Vermont refuses to be made a tool of, and Democratic Tennessee hangs back. In the display that is being made by the women who are waging the fight, the vote of the women is cheapened in the eyes of right thinking . folks. They openly offer the vote of the women to the party that can get that thirty-sixth state. Issues and men count for nothing. The privilege to vote?secured in any manner ?is all that is wanted. If the efforts of the suffrage leaders are successful in cajoling one or the other of the big parties in railroading the ratification, it certainly appears that it will ? have been by the abrogation of principle and for the sole purpose of obtaining votes. We do not think these women represent the sentiment of the women of this country. We would hate to think so. The proposition as repre sen fed is t-hat the 17;000,000 votes of the women of America are to go to the highest bidder. Naturally, being a Democrat, we would like to see the Democratic candidates get these vot^s, if they can be had honorably,. but the price is too high. There are some things of more value to the ' Democratic party even than electing its ticket. We admire the stand of the governor of Vermont in refusing to surrender himself, his state and his principles, and we would like to see the governor of Tennessee do the same thing.
