The most horrible tragedy that ever occnrred in Colleton connty was that in which J. W. Irnegan wiped oat hie, whole family last Tuesday night. There is no question about the man beipg ■crazy, but it seems to us that somebody is to blame frr allowing this man to rnu at large for so long a time. We are informed that be had been trying to burn his house and kill his wife- and o children for several weeks before the awlul tes.it last Tuesday night, it is also stated that this matter was known to Ms neighbors. If these re port* are true, the neighbors were very derelict in their duty in allowing this man to run at large. — - £*- The vagrants are still in tow n.. They .have quit doing nothing but have gone to robbing houses. W^tMu the tsst w'«ek we are informed that several houses in •f town have been entered with the pur pose of robbing, and it is most probable that the robbers belong to the class who are loafing around town with no visible means of support. Las. week wc callml attention to this matter, but as yet we *iave seen no steps la!:mi to get rid of ^his worthless class. Wc hope that the policemen and the town authorities will •akq up thir matter at once. K." ’ We have been requested to publish the law providing for an election on the .-dock law ; in ‘.his county. This law will be found in next week’s issue. Every person interested should read the Act carefully and should make up his mind and vote for what he thinks is best for the interest of the county. Conditions have changed and are still changing in this county. Many sections have been built up and thiokly settled, the timber in a great many motions have been cut down, and it is claimed by a great °knany people that the conaty should have a general stock law. There are others who do not believe that the con ditions are ripe for snob a change. The ■ray to get at what the people warn on tteseatgect is by a ballot. 'The election will behsld on a day to *be designated by the oounty •npervisor. We hope the will appoint theday of the GIVE EVERY HAN A SQUARE DEAL The campaign fer Colleton County o will begin within a lew week# and we hope that the candidates for the senate and the house will make this a cam paign of education and enlightenment. There is a great opportunity for the patriotic educators of this county and we hope that our candidates will im prove this opportunity. There should be no personalities, no mad slinging, no acrimony; bat the campaign shook! be pitched nnon a high plane and the issues of the day should be discussed in a dignified and coorteons manner. There should be no factionalism or partisan- sbitt, each man should be allowed to run up' n his own merits and every man should t$ given a square deal. We believe that we will have such a campaign We believe that the people are sick and tired of factionalism and that they will vote for the men hisst qualified to fill the various positions without regard to who supports him or who doesn’t. We believe that every - man will run on his own merits and oot hope to enter any office by swinging to the coat tail of anybody else. We also believe that onr candidates will conduct a clean campaign, and that the year IPOfi will witness a peaceful, quiet, entertaining and educative cam paign this summer.
