J ASKED TO RESIGN *
* ?
**n***********************
Dr. F. C. Hickson, pastor of a Rap
i- . ? rm i r* i /?
ust, cnurcii in v^neroKee county tor a
number of years, was a candidate for
county superintendent of education,
in that county in the recent primaries
and lost. In former vears ho was vn
opposer of the policies of Cole L.
Blease, but in the recent contest between
Blease and McLeod in the second
race, he came out strongly for
Blease, advocated his election over
Mclveod, and went further than the
ordinary politician would have pone
in supporting him for the race.
Now the deacons of his church have
held a meeting and decided to ask for
his resignation on account of the activities
shown in behalf of Blease in
the primary. They have communicated
the result of their meeting to
Dr. Hickson and at last accounts it
was expected tlvit he would quietly
submit to the request.
This is in accord with our ideas of
just what should be done with him.
No Christian, knowinc Blease cou'd
consistently support him for office.
The Doctor must have known him for
he, was against Blease in former
times.
Now the same thing that has taken
place in regar dto this Baptist preacher
should take place in regard to the
"Rev. Baxter McLendon, though there
is more difficulty in respect to him for
the reason that he holds l\is meetings,
not in pulpits of the regularly constituted
churches, but within a tont
which he moves from place to place
over the country. It is said that he
rs a member of some Baptist church
somewhere. If this be true the deacons
should meet and turn him out.
In the case of McLendon, he should
be called down for two reasons. The
first one would be based on general
nrmpinlnc un/>V> oc. i.nni.n.,
!> nivii/ivo) oviv.ii rir* nic iru.^wil i ui iiiu
discharge of Hickson; that no preacher
of the Gospel could endorse Blease
Tor high office and remain consistent
with the principles of the Christian
religion. The second would be based
on the ground that he had circulated
statements by means of o circular letter
that were untrue.
Taking up the subject of the*circular
letter that McLendon mailed all
over this section of South Carolina
jwft before the second primary, we
think that the most absurd and ridi
culous statement that it contained
was that m reference to August Kohn
as being the boss of the ring in Columbia.
and as having everything to
do in the keeping of certain men in
office. It would appear to be impossible
that McLendon could believe
such a thing to ho true, much less put
it out to the world as a fact to be used
against McLeod.
It may be that McLendon will deny
that he was the author of the circular.
He has been late in publishing* any
such statement. He has been charger!
with writing* it. As mailed it carried
his signature. Unless lie denies it he
will have to be responsible for it.

Failure usually advertises itself

Unless you are going to attend to

GRAND JURY IS

(Continued from Page One)
entirely upon the magistrates. Certain
necessary action by the Board
of Trustees, The County Superintendent
of Education and the rural
policemen are necessary to a magistrate's
activity .11 carrying >ut
this law. It appears that none 01
these officers have regularly anj
consistently throughout the county
performed the acts necessary to v
full .execution of the law. We recommend
that the County Hoard of
Education, as the head of the county
school system and the County
Superintendent of Education as its
chief administration agent inform
the officers whose duty includes execution
of the Compulsory School
law, of just what they should do,
and require that their instructions
be promptly and efficiently carried
out. We refrain from presenting
any particular officers for neglect
of duty in this matter, in the expectation
that prompt steps will be
taken by the officers when their attention
is called to this petition.
5. At the suggestion of thr?
County Physician we desire here to
call attention to the law providing
for compulsory vaccination of schoo'
children. He reports that when parents
are informed, compliance with
the law is general, but that there is
a wide lack of information as to thh
necessary rule of community health.
We hope that our observations here
will enable the parents of the county
to cooperate more fully with th^
ounty's physician in this particular
provision for the benefit of the public
health.

members of the Grand Jury, we have
considered with a degree of care, the
new County Government Act, which
is lo go into effect January Isl
next. The conclusion of this body
has been, that the new act is by no
means an improvement over tlv
present plan of township Supervisoi
in effect and operation, but that it
will be ineffective as compared tc
the present plan, in the construction
and repair of roads and bridges. This
conclusion of the Grand Jury, constrains
us to recommend, that thi?
act be repealed at the next sittin;
>j the legislature.
7. Complaints have been made t<
the members of the Grand Jury,
that in some sections \of the county
road overseers and road hands have
been neglectnig the proper performance
of road duty. We call the attention
of the township supervisoi
of Little River township to the negligence
of overseers and road hands
on the road between Brookvillc and
Little River. This section is in bad
repair and has not been worked.
We also call attention to the samr
township supervisor, to the necessity
of constructing the Honevse:
Hooks bridge. Our information Is
!_ il - T-fc 1 A/*? rx i ?
mat me rost wince department will
open a mail route for this road as
soon as the bridge is built, and do so
without further petition. We also
call attention to the neglect of proper
road work on the 1'otatoe Her?
Ferry road hot ween Jordan's sa\v
mill and the Pee Dee road.
8. We recommend to the Legislature
Delegation of this county that
due and proper appropriation foi
the construction and repair of road?
and bridges of the county be carefully
considered, so that the work
of construction may go on, and so
that tho money invested by the county
in new roads will not be wasted I

by lack of repair and maintenance.
7. The report of the Grand Juries
have several %times called attention
to the shortage of Extreasurer W. L.
Bellamy. Our information is that no
action has yet been taken by the
proper authorities to collect this
shortage from the ex-treasurer, or
from his bondsmen. We earnestly
recommend that the Attorney General
of the State of South Carolina
as soon as convenient take such
steps as he may find necessary to
ascertain the amount of the shortage
due and to collect same. We
request that the Clerk of this Court
send a copy of this paragraph to the
State Attorney General.
10. Complaints have been transmitted
to this Jury by several of its
members and others, of many instances
of disorderly conduct, ami
inefficient and careless acts, and ot
negligence of duty by a number of
magistrates in this county. We understand
that such a general condi
tion exists as to make it necessary \
that some steps be taken to make the '
magistrates office in Horry County a .
better and more efficient instrument
to administer law and punish '
the violators thereof. We refrain
from presenting any individual, in
the hope that the magistrates themselves
will amend their ways, or the ]
other action will be t^fcen to protect *
the administration of law and the ^
public rights.
11. Complaint is made to the J
Grand Jury through members ami j
others that some of the rural police- *
men of the county are negligent li
preserving order in public places an ' j
in arresting persons drunk on thf
public highway, and that they laci 1
proper initative in supressing gener- *
al lawlessness, but wait for com
plaint to be made before they be
come active. The G?nd Jury doe.- 1
not now desire to make a specific *
presentment of neglect of duty.
12. Our attention is called to tlv> ,
fact that a vote upon the question of ,
having a County Court comes before
our electors at the General Election
in November. Our information as j
to the state of the court calendar
and the delay caused by their congestion
in having cases tried brings
us to the conclusion that the estab
lishment of a court as suggested
would be greatly beneficial to on * (
nnnnf o ?wJ 4-^v ^^^ 1 " - ? ? ?
?.uuiiv,? uuu hi itn jjcupit;; iinu wr r
therefore endorse such an establishment
and recommend to our electors
that they consider the undoubted ^
benefits of such a court when they
are called upon to vote upon tho j
question. I
13. The Solicitor has filed wit s
the Grand Jury the return of M. C. c
Butler ex-magistrate at Loris, to a ^
rule to show cause issued at tlvA r
Summer term of Court of Genera! t
sessions, pursuant to a recommends a
tion of the Grand Jury. We advise x
the Court that we do not conside
the return sufficient to discharge the r
rule. We recommend that eithe- e
the Clerk of Court, or Special Ref a
eree be appointed and directed -> t
investigate the conduct of the ma- t
gistrates office by Mr. Butler, and ^
the accounting for fines and cost" f
under the law and that such clerk
or referee have such power as the
court may be able to give, to summons
witnesses and require books
and papers.
