The inevitable has happened. Miss
Alice Robertson, the only -woman in
congress, has been defeated. Miss
Robertson is a game politician, and
if she had been a little more particular
in the selection of her party affiliation
doubtless she would have
remained in congress. But, unfortunately,
she cast her lot with the
Republicans, and this is a bad year
lor the G. O. P. A Democrat, IV. W;
Hastings, by name, will supercede
Miss Robertson next March fourth.
Bamberg, officially and unofficially,
invites everybody in the county and
surrounding counties, to visit this
city next week. The occasion is the
only free county fair in the world.
No admission is charged to this fair,
and if indications are correct, it will
be one of the finest little fairs held
in the state this year. There is more
interest on the part of the people
in this direction than last year, and
there has been a fine spirit of cooperation
on the part of the people.
Bamberg made a small beginning for
a county fair, but it is growing by
leaps and bounds. It is now firmly
established. It is worthy of a visit
next week, and we extend to each and
every one of you a most cordial in
vitation to come to the fair every
day and stay all day. Bring all the
family. There will be much to
amuse and entertain you. Forget you
ever heard of a boll weevil and make
it a week of enjoyment. Read the
programme on another page and
see for yourself what Bamberg offers
you next week.
Last week's election was one of
the greatest victories the Democratic
party has ever achieved. While the
Democratis have not recovered a
majority in either 'house, the extent
of the reaction of the country
for the G. O. P. may be imagined
when the Republicans have a majority
in the lower house of congress
now of 165 votes. The next
congress will see this majority reduced
to fifteen, which really means
no majority at all, for with the aid
of the progressive and insurgent Republicans,
the Democrats will virtually
have control of the 'house. At
least, the Republicans cannot hope
for a hold up of the country. This
decisive vote in the north and the
west came, too, without serious fight
on the part of the Democratic party,
and the extent of the victory was
never even imgained by the Democrats
themselves. The total campaign
funds of the Democratic party
was not even a decent fractional
part of that of the Republicans. The
election proves one thing most con
clusively: The Republican party has
made a mess of things since it was
entrusted with the administration ol

! this government?or rather the peo- j
pie so consider it. When one re-j
! fleets that such a state as Michigan, j
' rock-ribbed Republican to the core, j
has elected a Democratic senator,
the feeling of the voters may be
imagined. Perhaps the feature that
is most gratifying to southern people
' is that the south is Democratic once
more. The only Republican representatives
left are those who had no opposition.
And had the Democratic
t avalanche been surmised beforehand,
these would have also gone to the ,
, discard where they belong.
TOLBERT DRESSES UP.
Looks Very Dapper Without Neck
Tie.
Greenwood, Nov. 8.?A brilliant
i
new gold collar button graced the ,
J neck of Joseph Warren Tolbert, Re- '
publican national committeeman and
! pie dispenser, when he began his .
first full term of court here today as .
j United States marshal for the Wes- (
! tern district. The new marshal
' | dressed up for t'he occasion, but he ,
j scorned the necktie he has never
worn, and only compromised with ,
j convention by wearing a new gold ,
I collar button and a new collar button j
and a new linen collar.
Although the committeeman has
' attended national Republican conI
claves, various social functions in ,
Washington and his dined with the ^
j President he has never sacrificed his
I pride to the convention of neckties,
j Dressed in a natty gray suit, bril- j
| liantly polished shoes and lavender }
l striped shirt, Mr. Tolbert was as
I dapper as a collegian except for the (
j necktie when he strode into court .
I this morning.
; After a vigorous fight in the Seni
ate made by Senator Dial, Tolbert (
j was given a recess appointment as ^
1 marshal, to succeed C. J. Lyon, by <
| President Harding.

| The Road Hog.
j Yorkville Enquirer.
"Here,"' said an automobile driver
;it'his morning, "Is a description of a
1 road hog and I believe it will keep a J
lot of 'road pigs' in this neck of the
woods from becoming 'hogs' if they
' I were given the opportunity to read ;
: it:
j "What is a road hog? A road hog
is a driver of an automobile who uses
j both sides and the middle of the pub
'! lie highway in which to travel from!
' place to place. His manners are
bad and his regard for the rights of
' | others is poor. He is hard to fatten ;
' and would make a mighty poor qual- :
: j ity of pork, if he were sent out to the ;
! packing house. He lives and moves ;
! i and has his being the same as other
1 hogs, but he refuses to even grunt ,
i when you drive into a ditch and give
I him the entire road. He is a danger- ,
'ious animal for 'he is calculated to
jhurt someone or kill his fool self.
' But what's the use of talking about
iroad hogs? Why not elevate our
I minds with more desirable subjects
'' such as hookworm, small pox, 'flu'
'.cabbage snakes and boll weevils?"

SOLICITOR RUN DOWN BY CAR.
Automobile, Driven by I. Q. Connor,
Breaks Chester Attorney's Leg.
Chester, Nov. 7.?Solicitor J. K.
Henry of the Sixth judicial circuit
| was run down by an automobile on
the public square late today, his left
leg being broken just below the knee.
His leg is giving him considerable
pain tonight.
The car that struck him was driven
by I. Q. Connor and the fender is said
to have struck the solicitor, throwing
'him to the asphalt street, and as
he fell he was run over by the wheels
of the automobile, which was used
as a taxi. The affair was accidental,
it was said.
Solicitor Henry wa9 going across
the street diagonally and two automobiles
are said to 'have been approaching
when the accident occurred.
This is one of Chester's most congested
corners. Solicitor Henry is
one of the most popular solicitors in
South Carolina and has probably
served as long as solicitor as any solicitor
in America.
A Glance at 1924.
By Savoyard
A lot of folks who love the novel
in life'are busy running up and down
our glorious union in search of a Republican
statesman to succeed Warren
G. Harding in the White House.
It is doubtful if such man can be
discovered. If the G. O. P. elects
the president of the United States in
1924 the chances are ten to one that
his name will be Warren G. Hardin?.
If his present administration is successful
nobody can beat Mr. Harding
for the nomination of his party; if
the administration should prove a
failure then, and in that event, the
Republican nomination for president
in 1924 will be of small value.
R. B. Hayes was the only Republican
who ever held the office of president
of the United States wTlio was
not a candidate for a second term
and he would have been such candidate
had not the candidature been
both impossible and ridiculous owing
to the them manifest and now established
fraudulency of his title to the
chief Magistracy. All things considered
the administration of Hayes was
I romaricahlv successful. It was the
only administration of our history
that never had the aid of a party
majority in the national house of representatives
a single day of its existence,
and the second administration
of Grover Cleveland (1893-97)
was not more odious to the leaders of
the Democratic party then "barking
up a 16 to 1 tree there was nothing
in," than the Hayes administration
was odious to the leaders of the Republican
party who were then snarl,

ing and biting over the quarrel
whether Grant should have a third
term or Blaine a first term. Neither
Conkling, the champion of Grant, nor
Blaine who personally led his own
forces, was on speaking terms with
the White House, where R. B. Hayes
was the puppet of John Sherman, and
there is no denying that Sherman
gave the country an excellent administration,
removing as 'he die. the
bayonet from the South and resuming
as he did specie payments.

' 1SS1. Counting Hayes out of the
| bunch Chester A. Arthur was the only
, Republican president who was denied
! a nomination while in office, and the
event proved disastrous and is yet a
: warning. Blaine beat Arthur for the
nomination in 1884 and was defeated

j the unspeakable asshood that broke

and adhered to it till 1912. Grant, too,

tion to the hundreds of thousands of
! Democrats who refused to vote for
j Horace Greeley. Here is one of 40

in Kentucky was nearly 100,000.

that commonwealth was about 8,000,
and four years later Kentucky gave
Tilden nearly 60,000 majority, and in
the Greeley campaign the election returns
from Kentucky were typical of
the returns from all the other states
except in the cotton South, where the
bayonet cast the ballot.
Well, here is Republican authority
for it that Governor Miller of New
York is the greatest Republican living.
This is writ before November 7
and if he should be defeated for reelection
it takes him out of the account.
Right now "the woods is full"
of Republicans who want 'him named
for president in 1924. However, the
Harding administration may have as
much human nature as had Arthur's

to the Miller boom.
But t'here are others. If Gifford
Pinchot should sweep Pennsylvania
he will loom up for the Republican
nomination in 1924 notwithstanding
his commitment to Harding. Pinchot
. is worth watching. Then there is Bev"
eridge. As thi9 is writ he is running
for senator in congress; but if he %
lands that plum he is certain to put
his rod up to catch and corral the
presidential lightning. He will be too
old in 1 924, but Beveridge is willing.
Meanwhile La Follette is busy ,
fashioning the Progressive movement
of 1924 and there is no Roosevelt in

in 1912. There is promise that there
