THURSDAY. APR. 28. 1910.
Our Memorial Edition,
We expect to publish next
week?our nexi regular issue,
31ay 5?a Memorial Day Edition.
The object of this issue is to
help to arouse , enthusiasm and
interest in the monument unveiling
that is to take place here
on May 10, under the auspices
of the Williamsburg Chapter of
the Daughters of the Confederacy.
There is still due several hundred
dollars on the monument,
$ we understand, and every dollar
of this should lie in hand before
May 10, the day for the\.unveiling
exercises.
Our. Memorial Day issue will
contain from. twelve to sixteen
pages, according to the encouragement
we 1 receive from the
imhlie. Several Daves of this will
r ?
be reading matter especially
adapted to Memorial Daj-, pr< fusely
illustrated with appropriate
cuts.
We are publishing this issue
under the auspices of the U D
C chapter and for ^11 the extra
advertising received for the issue
at our regular rates, we will
donate one-fourth to the monument
fund. Moreover, we expect
this edition to run to 2,500
copies,' which will give us nearly
one thousand extra papers. These
we will furnish the Daughters of
- the Confederacy at three cents a
copy?the actual cost of produc
tion, as we figure it?and they
may have the profit on every
copy they sell at five cents each.

S.M.
Orders for these papers may l>o
sent to this office and due credit
will l>e given to the monument
fund.
We are making this proposi
tion to try to aid a worthy
cause. There Is no money in it
for us; in fact, we shall be glad
to come out even, the extra expense
considered. If the people
of Williamsburg are willing . toi
help the noble women who have
made such splendid efforts to
make this monument a reality,
here is the opportunity to aid
them and at the'-same time get 1
full value for every dollar spent. '
Every sul>scriber' to The Record
ought to l>e willing to spend five
cents for one extra Copy of the
p iper to send to some friend
and there .will be hundreds of
manure ?nu sjiuuiu muiii ii iur*
as a memento'of the occasion.
Our solicitor will see the business
men who are not already
our advertisers and we hope to
h ve a liberal response. RemeniUt
this is not a Kingstree affair?the
honor of Williamsburg
county is at stake. We must all
pull together and make the unveiling
of the monument to our
Confederate soldiers a success.
The Democratic party in Beaufort
has split, the press despatches
report. Probably of all the counties
in the State Beaufort can least
afford a split in the ranks of the
party.
We are publishing from week
to week a series of articles fur- ,
nished us by the director of Clem- ;
son College experiment station. 1
We hope that these articles will
h*' helnful to our farmer friends.
""1 1
They take up a great deal of our (
space, hut we are glad to utilize ]
it in that way if any benefit re- ;
suits. The paper belongs to our
readers and it is always orir desire
to conduct it according to the j (
wishes of a majority of them, i
We would like very much to.;
have an expression from some of
11
our intelligent farmer readers asj
|
to whether the articles are of
practical value.
It is to l)e hoped that the
reports of the disastrous effects
of the freeze over the South are
exaggerated. After the smoke of
the battle is cleared away it j
)
usually happens that not near
so many men are killed as were
at first reported, and probably
the reporters and newspaper cor-,
respondents over the country, in}
their excess of zeal for news and 1
sensation have over-stated the!
facts. At any rate, conditions j
locally are by no means disheartening
and it is to J>e hoped

We congratulate our enterprising
contemporary, the Charleston Evening
Post, on its latest forward
movement. The Post is a splendid
newspaper?there is no better after
noon paper published anywhere ir
the State?but heretofore, owing tc
the fact that it did not reach jriany
points outside of Charleston until
the day after publication, its circu
* > '
lation has been almost entirely
confined to that city. Now, however,
The Post gets out a 2:30 p it
edition which reaches Kingstree
about 6 o'clock, so that now we get
the news the day that it happens.
With this distinct advantage over
other newspapers, Ibe Post ought
to be able to build up a fine circulation
through this section.
THE OIL MILL SITUATION.
?7?'.
' ?h?; '
Deal Pending to Sell Local Planl
?Matter Still In Embryo.
There have been various rumors
about town for the past week or twc
relative to a deal pending betweer
the South1" Atlantic Oil Company and
certain parties in Darlington, which,
if effected, will result in the local
mill changing hands and being remodeled
under new management.
While this is a consummation devoutly
to be hoped, as it would be a
material advantage to the town for
the oil mill to resume operation under
favoring conditions, yet we have
it on the best authority that the
whole affair is as yet merely under
consideration and by no means a
certainty. We have been advised of
the pending deal for some time buf
deemed it premature to give the
matter publicity while in an embryctoto

Our readers may rest assured that
when this or any other matter affecting
the interest of Kingstree becomes
an assured fact no time will
be lost in giving it publicity through
Ihe medium of this newspaper.

The firm of Knight, Yancey & Co.
T Alabama cotton merchants, failed
;
last week for $6,000,000, Fraud
11 being charged, an investigation is
1 pending.
Like Charles, Louisiana, a town
of 25,000 inhabitants, was almost
swept out of existence by fire
1 Saturday. Several hufidred buildings
were destroyed causing a loss of
over $3,000,000.
At Atlanta, Ga., Saturday night,
W H Bryson and S T Brown, conductor
and motorman, respectively,
on a suburban street car, were shot
1 down by three negro highwaymen,
! the object being robbery. Con
ductor Bryson was robbed of $35.
Brown the motorman, is dead and
. Bryson is not expected to live. The
latter 1s a native of Laurens county.
Tom Cason, an industrious negro,
was found dead in the woods near
Greenv$e last Friday. A gun-shot
wound in the stomach told th^ story
of how the man met his death.
t This is the second mysterious killing
that has occurred within a week
. in the same vicinity. A feud
, among certain negro families is
t said to be the cause.
A*$200,000 hotel is soon to be
built to replace the recently burned
I Spartan Inn, and Greenville is to
. have a new hostelry containing 150
rooms.
The whites of Coleman, Texas,
. have risen up in arms to drive
out the negro population. With
clubs and stones hundreds attacked
the negroes driving them out with
i threats of death.
Freezing weather over the South
i i3 reported to have done great damf
age. Millions of acres of cotton
' are destroyed and seed for replant!
ing is scarce. In the upper part of
this /State, Georgia, Alabama and
Mississippi heavy frosts, snow and
freezing weather prevailed several
days last week.
President Taft has appointed
Charles E Hughes, Governor of New
York, associate Justice of the United
States to succeed the late Justice
David J Brewer.
5 or 6 doses "666" will cure any
case of Chills and Fever. Price 25c.
