Eotered oft the poet office et Barnwell, 8. C., ee eecond-claei metier. .THURSDAY, AUGUST », 1984. Ruled Out of Order. In our opinion, the head of the Re publican party in South Carolina was out of order when he demanded that Republicans be allowed to participate in the liquor referendum to be held in connection with the Democratic primary election, and Ben T. Leppard, State chairman, was entirely right in ruling that only duly qualified Demo crats can vote in saij primary. The referendum is being held merely to ascertain what shall be the policy of the State Democratic party in refer ence to its future course on the liquor question an<j as a guide to the mem bers of the general assembly in the enactment of liquor legislation. It ■ . \ has no force of law, nor is the cost of the election being borne by the taxpayers of the State, funds raised by the Democratic organization through the assessment of candidates being used for that purpose of $260.00 for e^qpenses of organiza tion and other incidentals incurred in the establishment of the said copora- tion. FURTHER NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, That a meeting of the .sub scribers of the capital stock of the said corporation will be held at the hank building at Biackville, 8. at four o'clock p. m., on the 14th day of August, 1984, for the purpose of transacting such other business as may be necessary to complete the organiz*tipn, jdl of-which—will he certified to the Secretay of State; ^ T. 0.

The Republicans would have just as | P u b'‘ cat > on at 11 o’clock in much right to demand representation in a Democratic convention, with the privilege of helping to determine party policies, and why any attention was ever paid to their demands in the first place is beyond our comprehension. However, they would be entirely with in their rights in holding a liquor referendum of their own to determine whether or not the State G. 0. P. shall continue to be the exponents of the noble experiment. Relief Administration in S. C. The People-Sentinel knows practi gaily nothing of tbo morlto of B ' «*U. movement headed by Ben E. Adam's, of Columbia, to change the adminis tration of federal relief in South Carolina. No doubt, there have been abuses—we are not prepared to say. The distribution of such huge sums ss the government has appropriated coold not have been accomplished without causing dissatisfaction. In fad, a writer of the leading article in the current issue of The Saturday Evening Post, a periodical that has been a constant critic of the New Peal, says that while the FERA and Jhe agencies that preceded it have relieved actual want throughout the country they have alao bred universal discontent. According to this writer, neither those who have received “re lief” nor these who ere peying for it are satisfied. Without doubt, there are many on the payrolls who are not strictly en titled to be there and these should be weeded out at the earliest possible moment, whether they hold aministra- tive jobs or those requiring manual labor, and this applies to State and county adtninistratlone. The spirit behind President Roosevelt’s efforts to relieve the distress of the unem ployed U, too fine to be allowed to wreck on the rocks of selfish greed individuals. the forenoon, to show cause, if any they have, why the said Administra tion should not be granted.
