Thursday, June 29, 1922. J
Bigham has given notice of appeal .
to the supreme court. Nobody can ]
blame him. Anybody would save his ^
neck just as long as possible. In the ,
meantime however, justice is being
delayed according to the Florence .
jury that convicted him. Many .
months have elapsed since the mur- <
der of the whole family, and now j.
many more months' will elapse be- ?
fore the deaths of these people will j
be avenged?if ever. ,

The loan of $30,000,000 to the co- ]
operative tobacco marketing associa- ]
tion assures the okeh of the United ^
States government. The war finance i
corporation has certainly approved of ]
the operation of this marketing agen- 1
cy through this mammoth loan. The i
loan will put the association on a '
solid foundation, and if it does not <
i succeed it will not be because of lack <
of backing. The marketing asso- <
ciation has accomplished wonders in ]
Kentucky and Virginia, and with the 1
backing of the war finance corpora- <
tion it should do equally as well in ]
South Carolina. The producers of j
tobacco may well expect great results '
from the operation of the association
this year; and growers will do well {
to support the maketing association
in every way that it is possible for
them to.

In all of the cruelties of the Germans
during the world war we cannot
remember an instance that was
more cruel than the murder of fortyodd
workmen in the coal mines in ,
J
Illinois last week. We read that
(
the non-union workmen surrendered^
v, according to one of the injured, before
a single man was hurt by the
bullets of the mob; that the surrendered
men were tied together in
bunches, then made to run and were
shot down as they tried to escape; '
.V ' V, \ . - ?
that as one would be shot down and
drag his fellows with him, the* bunch
would be shot while they were /down.
* 1
Others were burned when the mine ^
was fired. If this had happened in
J South Carolina it would have been a ^
terrible thing?a lynching, but in
Illinois it is a union disturbance. To ]
add insult to injury, the grand jury
% can\ot locate, it says, any guilty parties,
except a mine superintendent, 1
who was killed himself. ,

\
There are some 150,000 newly en- ,
* l.!i. ,
irancniseu wiiine wumcu ?uicio m <
South Carolina, and if these w.omen i
can be induced to participate in the
\ primary elections this year there is ]
no telling what they might accomp- i
lish. The Herald clearly believes it 1
to be the duty of the women to vote,
/ and they are reminded of the fact i
that in order to cast their ballots on 1
August 29 it will be necessary that i
they enroll their names on the Democratic
club lists. The identity and 1
indifference of the women will oper- 1
ate to keep many of them away from 1
the polls, but it should not so operate.
There are evils existing in South <
Carolina and all over the land that '<
we are absolutely certain the women 1
have it in their hands to correct at
the ballot box, and as good citizens t
it is not only their privilege but their i
duty to vote for officers who will cor- f
rect them. The Democratic club rolls
will close on July 27th. .
j
Tobacco ought to be one of Bamberg
county's most important crops.
It has been clearly demonstrated that 1
this county can produce as fine tobacco
as can be grown in South Caro- ]
lina. Some folks who ought to knowr ]
say that our tobacco^ is superior to
that produced in some sections of this
state. This bein? true, the county is
Entitled to make of the tobacco grow-,
' ing industry an important business.
The Herald is convinced that the
greatest factor that should contribute
toward the success of the industry
\ here has been the organization of tne
cooperative marketing system of selling
this product. If this county can
produce millions of pounds of tobacco,
by putting the selling of the product
on a business basis the county
ought to realize a fine profit on the
investment. That this is well-nigh
impossible through the haphazard
methods of selling heretofore pursued
has been as clearly demonstrated
as the fact that this county can
produce tobacco. We are not pre*
pared to say that it will not be well
for the operation of independent
warehouses to be continued, but we
believe that tihe interests of the tobac
co growers will be enhanced if a
large majority of growers enter the
association. The first year or two
ought to determine whether it will
be best for all growers to sell in the
association.

A Negro liero.
He was a seventeen-year-^ld negro
dov. Probably he had little or no e
education, no instruction as to what
t
qualities have made human deeds e
?reat, sometimes sublime. He was
aear a small lake on Farr's farm t
ibout four miles of Greenville when
lie saw a little white child on the c
nnint nf drowning. The negro lad g
hid not know how to swim. It might u
have ?een expected, then, that he
would not himself attempt a rescue, y
but the God who made him had implanted
in his heart the will to serve I
another human being in distress. So d
be plunged into the water and managed
to keep the white child's head
above the water until help arrived.
Succor came too late for the negro,
y
lowever. Another he saved, but himv
self he could not save. His own.
humanity cost him his life, which he (.
sacrificed in a noble act of sublime
s
iaeroism. He thought not of himself, j
aut of others. "Greater love hath no
nan than this." He died that a little
white child might live. His splendid

The Piedmont would like to see a /
suitable monument erected over the t
?rave of this poor boy, who, in the =
supreme and final moments of his S
life, chose to be written 0own as one
vho loved his fellowmen, who to the
;all of humanity answered so prompt- ^
[y and so fully, "Here am I." True 6
in this are the lines of Tennyson: ii
'Love took up the harp of Life, and 0
smote .
On all the chords with might;
Smote the chord of Self, that, tremb- a

Passed in music out of sight."

A big hearty American Indian askd
a farmer to give him work.
JtJut you inciians always get ur- i

'*1 never get tired. I'm not like

So the farmer set him to work. On
oming round to see how he was progressing,
he found the Indian asleep
mder a tree.
"Hi* you," he said. "I thought
ou never got tired. Wake up!"
"I don't never get tired," said the
ndian. yawning. "but I should if I
