The Cpunty Democratic Executive
committee met at the court house last
Thursday for the purpose of canvassing
the votes cast at the second primary
election. As there were no candidates
to run over for the county
oflices in this county, very little interest
was shown in the tabulation.
It is the first time in many years
that Horry County has not had to
hold a second primary election in order
to fill all of the 'offices.
W Commander Sellers of Gallivants
Ferry was in Conway last Thursday
for the first time in the past twenty
years. It is stated that Mr. Sellers
lives within twelve miles of Conway,
and he has been in good health and
able all of the time to attend to his
regular work. His reason for staying
away from the county seat for all
that length of time would be hard to
explain, and Mr. Sellers has not undertaken
to do so himself, so far as
we know.
Although the Legislature of this
State has passed a law making it a
criminal offense to pass a check and
obtain something of value for it, the
check being drawn 011 a bank where
the drawer has no funds at the time toj
meet it, still there are many who Der-1
sists in violating the law openly and
seemingly without regard for the law I
on the statute books. In nearly every
newspaper you pick up is found instances
of this violation of the law,
and there is quite a lot of it that happens
locally that never appears in the
newspapers at all.
TK? "farmer's best plan for next "
year is to raise plenty of meat and
<grain. It will be worth its weight in j
gold over in Europe, while there
would be no demand for cotton.
Miss Virginia Gasque, of Mullins. ^
S. C., who has been spending some
time at Myrtle Beach, and near Horry
passed through Conway last week on (
her way home. .
Conditions across the water are bad
in relation to food supplies nd will get |
worse as the war goes on. War tends
to prevent the shipment of wheat
from surplus European countries tc
those which need imports?for example?from
Russia to France, and a
famine in France would seem inevi
table.
The office of Magistrate W^H Chest
nut has issued fourteen warrants
against violators of the whiskey laws
during the past two or three weeks,
and these warrants were placed in the (
hands of the sheriff for service. A
number of them had already been
bound over to the court of general
sessions last Monday. This all shows
that the authorities have it in for the
blind tigers in various parts of the
county, and they will no doubt be put
out of business by the campaign the
authorities are waging against them.
A letter received from Sumter M.
Johnson of Garnier's, Fla., last Sat^day
states that Mr. Johnson, who is
one of Horry's Pee Dee boys, is still
among the land of the living, doing I
well on the Gulf of Mexico, and eating |
plenty of iish in that semi-tropical
j country. Mr. Johnson is a brother of ^
Messrs. J. Monroe Johnson and Italy 1
W. Johnson of this county. He has I
| many friends who will be glad to 1
know that he is doing well in his ad- I
opted State. *
There will he no bread famine in the
United States this year. The largest
wheat crop in history has just been ;
harvested, and according to the Unit- j
ed States Department of Agriculture j
the total production is about 911.000,000
bushels. Horry farmers wc
hope will he able to buy their share
of this immense crop, but as to the '
price they will have to pay owing tc
the conditions brought about by the
war, is more than we can say. It isfeareel
that the price will be high
Still there neeel be no fear of a breae
famine here or anywhere else in this
country.
