Contest will be closed for the set.-)
ond count for leadership in one of
the most interestiung events which
has been pulled off in* Walter boro,
la this contest the candidate who has
made the greatest-gain Since the first
count of a month ago wrill receive S15
In gold as a prize. No matter what
your standing may ha\w been at th*
conclusion of the first count, if you
make a greater fain over that count
than any other candidate >ou will
win the 815. For instance, if you
had but 35 votes in the count made
March Cth, and you made a larger
gain than the leader, you will get
the money. If you make a gain of
15.000 or 20.000 or 25.000. and the
leader in the first count makes a ga n
of only one less than you. you will
have the $15 cinched for yourself.
So get busy and bring in all the
votes possible between now- and Fri
day March 28th.
A little ezeytlon and hustling
among the contestants is what is re
quired to win. and the one who is
the- most active and who uses the
best judgment and business sense in
her capvass is the one who will land
the prize. It wilPcome wfthout the
expenditure of a penny to the one
who captures the p’-lre^ bn* e>rn''!
hustling will be the prize of success
Are you going to win it. Or are you
going to take a vacation and let the
other girl beat you to it; And proba
bly by a ffw votes at that?
Whatever number of votes you
may have in the second count w 1!
be placed to your credit in the final
count which will be made in March
but if you make the greatest zain
now you will land the $15 w-hi<h is
offieced as a special prize at the coupt
on Monday, March 28th. And all
the votes cast during the eiitir** con
test will determine who is to N get
the piano—these s pec .a 1 •taunts cut
ting no figure in the grand final
round up. There is nobody so far
ahead, according to the first court,
bfit what a little hustling on th*
part of the other oontestants would
place them right up among the lead
ers. New subscribers are what count
the most in this contest, because for
every new subscriber brought m. the
person bringing it .n is entitled to

The Press and Standard:
I desire to call the attention o‘
the people of Walterboro to the coi -
which exist tt the Cemetery,
llacjvteoplc have made' complaint
that ffokers which arc placed on the
graves of the dead are removed.
Such a condition should not exist
and something should be done to'cor-
rect the practice of people who have
no sense of propriety and less of
honesty taking flowers which are
placed on the graves of the dead by
those n;ho hold their memory dea-.
On two occasions, within the last few
days. 1 have placed flower* on the
grave o’ one dear to me. and have
gone bai k later to find that some
vandal has taken them away. Only
by human hands could these have
been removed. If wind had blown
them away, they could have been
found sorhewhere within the lot.
It sewn* to me that the lot owners
there should unite and provide for a
keeper. The cemetery is one of the
most beautiful places in this locality,
but it needs some one there to take
constant care of it. I think that it
would be entirely practical to pro
vide such a keeper, and I am sure
that i' every lot owner would contri
bute fifty (er.ts a month, the money
so ra?s*<! would provide a keeper who
could give to the cemetery all of the
time that ir required. I am willing
to act as collector if the people think
that such an undertking is practical.
Ortainlc something should !>“ done
to take better care of the city of the
dead, and I am will.ng to do my
share with this object in view.

STATEMENT FROM GEO. F. von KOLNTTZ, CANDIDATE FOR
CONGRESS.
I am a candidate for Congress from the First
Congressional District to fill the vacancy occa
sioned by the death of my lamented friend, Hon.
George S. Legare.
The period of time before the election is short,
and it is a physical impossibility tor me to ap
proach each voter in the district as I should like to
do. explain to him my hopes and plans for the en
hancement of all that pertains to the Counties
composing our district. *
EXPERIENCE.
I have had a large 'legislative experience—
having been a member of Legislature in 1890 for
tour years, a member of the Constitutional Con
vention in 1895, 'State Senator 1902 and again a
member of the House of Representatives in 1907. a
I believe that this experience, coupled with a prac
tice of 23 years at the Bar, fits me to discharge the
duties of the office if I am elected.
\ FARMING.
Since 1894 I have been * actively engaged in
planting on a comparatively large scale, and I
think that I feel and realize the neqds and require
ments of the agricultural interests of our dis
trict. \
DRAINAGE.
Our section of the State is particular fertile, a
large portion being covered with swamp land.
The Government has expended enormous sums
of money to irrigate the arid lands of the West;
mv effort will be to endeavor to divert some of
w
that money to drain the lands of our district. The
health and prosperity of our district is dependent
in no small degree ui>on the removal of the stag
nant waters which breed disease and lessen the
value of our property. As a member of the Sani
tary and Drainage Commission of Charleston ’
County, which has had charge of this work, I am
well acquainted by practical experience with the
benefits which have accrued to that portion of
Charleston County in wl^ich^ve have been able to
operate.
ROADS. ,
Of primal importance to the man who lives
away from the city is the subject of ROADS. The
ability to haul and move the products of the
farms with ease and quickness adds much to the
value of the land and the income of the individual.
National aid should be this subject.
ORGANIZED LABOR.
Tre right of the working man to combine for
his own benefit is one of the cardinal planks in the
platform of the Democratic party. I condemn
government by injunction and I hold thac no in-
junotion should be issued in a case where there is
conflict between organized labor and the employ
er. unless such injunction would have been issued
under the strict rules governing The use of this
high and extraordinary remedy in the case be
tween the individuals. 1
The rr.aiftttiXiar.ee and extension of the Navy \ ard at ( htrrles-
ton and the advancement of ail that may aid in the dev^pment df
her commercial prosperity and prestige is close to my heart, and
if elected I shall bend my even* effort to further the good work
which has been so ably done by my departed friend.
IN CONCLUSION.
I solicit your vote—My character and integrity is a matter of
public knowledge, and it would be improper for me to do more than
advert to them. ■, . ' , . A ^
I believe that I can be of service to the district to the party if
sent to the National Halb of Legislation, and I bespeak your
kind consideration, vote and support.
Very respectfully,
GEORGE F. von KOLNITZ.
