* NEW COUNTY SEAT.
*
A chance remark of a Bamberg
citizen made W day or two since, per-
hapf explains the reasons why some
of fhe citizen# of - Bamberg county
wian to annex Warren and Broxton
r
townships. This remark reveals
so the of the wheels within wheels
and explains volumes. This gentle
man in discussing the annexation of
this portion of Colleton to Bamberg
stated that a similar movement was
on foot to annex a portion of Barn
well county (tver next to Denmark in
order that the new Bamberg county
would then be large enough to make
two counties witff a countv seat at
< Dentnark and one at Ehrhardt.
*
’•Bamberg,” this gentleman said,
“is iot jn the proper jJace for a
° y t *
county seat—it is too far to one edge
of the county.”
So this is the game, is it? Does
this explain the interest of some of
the promoters of the annexation?
Are the people of Colleton’s town
ships to be made eatspaws to pull
Ehrhardt’s.and Denmark'* chestnuts
out of the fire? We believe there ia
^ t' «■ x
too touch Anglo-Saxon blood up
there* ^o aHow It. We do not think
there is a man in either of these
townshipawho will not resent the
efforts being mad* to entice him
awgy from his native county. And
we were surprised at the activity of
tome:of the promoters from Bam-
berjjr eounty, but we are beginning
to aiee at through a glass darkly, and
^yre trust the reign of«(K)night and
the cohorts of (K)night. will
away when the sun of truth

As to good rands—does anyone
for a moment betiere that Bamberg
ia going to concentrate all of that
tremendous balance in the treasury,
her chain gang and road working
forces, in ueyrly acquired territory?
Warren and Broxton would hare to
pay in several years taxes before
they would be entitled to any con
sideration. It costs to transfer
records, etc and this would have to
be repaid before there would be any
funds available for the "adopted
children.’’ * But," says someone
"we have been promised thus and
so." v Oh, yes, you have been prom
ised, but have you stopped to think
how little able the promisers are to
carry out their promises. The easi
est thing in the world to make, and
to break, is .a promise. It is one
thing for a ’’hot air artist," who
wants a thing to promise, and an-
- .*•
other to fulfill, and sometimes it is
a long stretch between the promise
and the fulfillment.
Think of Mr. Brabham’* unsolicted

THINK OF THESE
”1 want to go to Bamberg county
where I can have stock law and good
roads,” said a citiren of Warren
township. This Aeems to be the
moving sentiment on the part of
many of the supporters of the an-
■exation idea in this township. They
seem to think they will set both the
day the annexation is made, should
it bq made. Never were those w ho
think this' laboring under a greater
delusion. Have they any gr»od rea-
son to suppose that Bamberg county
will make this section a stock law
section? IVrhaps Bamberg would
■A* . ■ — 1
conclude not to interfere with exist
ing law. Then again, suppose Bam
berg were to declare this territory
to be under the operation of the
general stock law, would that give
*
the people of the entire section what
they want? Would not the line bo-
* tween stock law and exemption be
• lengthened? Would not more peo
ple, therefore, have the unpleasant
experience of "living under two

MONEY TO CUT. .
The Press and Standard had a
novel experience one day last week,
and the first experience of the kind
in the county, -• It was cutting thou
sands of dollars in' currency on the
paper cutter. The matter came
aboyt in this wise. The First Nation
al Bank of Walterboro issues its own
currency, which is printed in Wash
ington by thto government. This is
sent out in sheets t>f four bills which
have to be cut apart and this is how
The Prere and Standard came to
have this novel experience. It h
none the lew a novel thing for Colle
ton County to be using home-made
money. The law gives national
banks the privilegs of issuing cur
rency to the amount of thmr capita)
stock. So there are now several
thousand doHars of Colleton County
money in circulation. And yet some
of our people wish to go to Bamberg
County where they cannot make
money.
OTHER CIRCUS ROBBERIES.
It has developed that there were
others robberies perpetrated circus
day besides that f rom the Misses Mc-
Teer mentioned in last week’s paper.
The home of Hon. Jas. E. Peuri
foy was entered and two savings
banks, belonging to his children
were broken into and robbed, and a
valuable gold bracelet, which had
just been presented to Mrs Peurifoy
by Mr, Peurifoy, was also taken.
The home of M rs. E. O. B. Gibbs
was also broken into and some
money, two rings, one of which was
a much prized diamond ring, and a
S old locket, belonging to Miss Sadie
Bryan, were stolen.
There seems to he little doubt that
the perpetrator of \hese robberies
was a follower of the circus, though
there are those who seems to think
that it is the work of local talent.
