H. W. ERASER BANK EXAMINER. 1
Georgetown Banker Named to Succeed
Rhame?Blease's Further Action
Makes Situation Complicated.
Columbia, April 8.?Hugh Wilson
Fraser. cashier of the People's bank,
of Georgetown, was today appointed
State bank examiner by Governor
Blease. to succeed B. J. Rhame, whom
the governor removed. Mr. Fraser
will qualify and enter upon the du-1
ties of his office at once. He arrived j
from Georgetown this morning and
was appointed by the governor just
before the latter caught the train for ;
Gaffney, where he goes to attend the
meeting of th e Red Men today and i
tomorrow. Mr. Fraser returned this!
afternoon to Georgetown, where he
will attend to his personal business j
and will then return here before assuming
the duties of the office.
tor l ouns IU i/rviuc 5 j
It will probably be necessary for!
the courts to decide just who is bank!
examiner now, for Mr. Rhame has refused
to recognize the right of the |
governor to remove him and has re- j
tained Mr. W. F. Stevenson to defend
his rights in the courts. Meanwhile
Mr. Rhame is holding 0:1 to the office:
of bank examiner and it was stated;
* " - " - -1 ^ - T- _ J J ?f~/l ;
tilts morning uiut ue iia,u ueyai icu uu i
a tour of examining the banks; this!
same informant stated that it was
understood that Mr. Rhame was only
going to go to such banks that he knew j
were friendly. In other words, if this
information is correct, Mr. Rhame is !
going to leave it up to the governor's i
appointee to make ihe first move which
will throw the matter into the courts, j
^pvpmi of Testiner.
Th?re are several ways Mr. Fraser:
can test the matter. He can attest
tone matter by a writ of certiorari in
the courts, or by mandamusing the
State treasurer to pay his warrants as
the legal bank examiner, or if he
.
should go to make examination or a
bank and the bank would refuse to
let him, he could bring action in the |
courts to compel the bank to recognize
him as the legal examiner. Thus, it
will be seen that there are several
methods by which Mr. Fraser could i
proceed, but he stated this morning:
that he had not decided which course
,J Ua V><->c- rmalifiprl 9, nrl

been commissioned. His bond for $15,000
has been properly executed.
Salaries and Assistants.
The bank examiner draws a salary
of $3,000 and is allowed expenses j
while on the road. In addition he has j
two assistants, one at a salary of $1,800
and the other at a salary of $1,500. j
The present assistants are T. C. Dunkin
and J. K. Dixon. Mr. Rhame was j
commissioned by Governor Ansel on
o December 21, 1910, to fill out the unex- j
I
"pired term of Mr. Giles L. Wilson, who
had accepted a position as national
bank examiner. The present term ex-;
i
pires March S, 1914, and whoever the
" courts decidc is the legal examiner
will serve out this term.
Meanwhile, speculation is rife and ,
the matter will likely be decided soon :
by the courts. Governor Blease has i
declared that he would employ coun- j
i
sel to defend the legality of his appointee's
right to the office. Mr. Fraser
is a close relative of Associate Justice
T. B. Fraser, of the supreme court,
and comes of a prominent Georgetown
family.
COMMITTEE UPHOLDS AINSWOKTH
Taft and Stimson Arraigned in Reportj
to House?Result of Recent Investigation.
. ?
Washington, April 9.?President1
Taft and Secretary Stimson are se-:
verely arraigned in a sensational report
on the Ainsworth case, presented j
to th" house today by the military af- j
fairs committee.
Secretary Stimson is charged with i
paving committed a "great and irreparable
wrong" and "a flagrant misuse
of official authority," which, last Feb- ;
ruary, he suspended Gen. Ainsworth j
from his duties as adjutant general of
the army and charged him with insubordination.
That the president and j
Secretary Stinson prejudiced the case, I
that the accusations against the geni
Koeo,i nrw~m nrpindice. and i
?rai uactu ,
that the secretary of war has an "erroneous
idea" of his relation to congress
are some of the other conclusions
reached b\; a majority of the
committee, of which Representative
Hay, of Virginia, is chairman.
Ainsvrorth Allowed to Retire.
After Gen. Ainsworth's relief from
duty, and when a court-martial seemed
probable, the president permittee
in, retire from the army because 01
1X11X1 tv x V- V-- ?
his long service. The report follows
an investigation of Gen. Ainswortli's
relief from duty, set afoot by a resolution
by Representative Watkins, of
Louisiana.
Cri:ieising the relief of Gen. Ains-worih,
the report declares the "worst
feature of it was- that this officer of
long ,-nd distinguished service had no
tribunal to which he could appeal with
the hope of justice or fair treatment."
Charges Declared Not Justified.
The majority of the committee conclude
that Gen. Ainsworth had beea
r\ i 11 Q T 1 fl fVl t h ] pi -
?111.11, J WL i I ^ avi ? "ivu j -??
! ter of suspension from Secretary Stimson
and "that the charges had origin
I in a determination to drive Gen. Ainsworth
from active service and have
nothing to support them but that baie
assertion coupled with misrepresentation
and suppression of the truth."
rrt1 ^ m o "t? a +
1 He report lueu gutTa UII w oa; iuai
it is incredible of belief that Secretary :
Stimson believed Gen. Aainsworth
guilty of the charges and adds:
The Real Reason?
"Some other reason must have actuated
the secretary of war, and thfvt
reason is not hard to find. Your committee
being familiar with all the
phases of the legislative features in
the army appropriation bill, can readilv
account for this violent assault cn
Gen. Ainsworth."
It is pointed out that Gen. Ainsworth
favored the five-year enlistment plan
in the army bill, which was opposed j
by other officers of the general staff,
and that Secretary Stimson's letter of j
suspension 01 tne general was sewi un
the day that this feature of the bill'
was being discussed in the house.
.
Stimson Scored Again.
Secretary Stimson's comment to the j
house when he sent the papers in the i
case, to the effect that his action "was
not to be construed as a recognition of
the authority of the house or any of
its committees to require of the chief
executive a statement of reasons for|
his official action" is severely criti-;
cised.
Gen. Ainsworth's" stand upon a certain
letter to the secretary of war,
upon which much of the charges was
based, is defended. *

ONTARIO'S PASSENGERS RESCUED.

Assistance Prevents Terrible
Sea Tragedy.
Boston, April 8.?A group of tired,
hungry passengers of the Merchants' j
and Miners' steamer Ontario, which;
was driven ashore, burning, on Montauk
Point, Long Island, early today,
arrived here late today, from New
London, Conn., where they \^ere landed
by a tug. Most of them were with-1
out Daggage. soiu^ nau uiesscu su
hurriedly in the extreme excitement
that they had scarcely sufficient
clothing.
When the Ontario was run ashore j
she carried. thirty-two passengers,
twenty-two first and second cabin, and
ten Italians in the steerage. All but
two of the passengers were brought
to Boston. Despite their trying ex!
nerience they took the situation
philosophically.
"Unavoidable Misfortune."
i "It was an unavoilable misfortune,"
said one, while others said they believed
no one was to blame. There
was no panic, except among the steerI
age passengers, who, not understandjing
English, could not be calmed and
; directed. They were forced by the
ship's crew into the saloon. Some of
j the.11 insisted 011 running on deck and
; few tried to climb the masts, thinking
(he shin was going to sink.

we all got a little excited, but who

The Heroes.
"If there were any heroes on that
boat they were Ingalls, the plucky
wireless operator, and Chief Engineer
Disney. Both of them stuck to their
posts until their duty was done and
j they were mostly responsible for our
j safety."
That the fire started before the ship
left Baltimore was the opinion ex1
pressed by D. C. Cannon, one of the
passengers. Cannon declares he saw
stevedores, who were stowing the cotton,
smoking, and it is his theory that
a smouldering match or cigarette
1 started a blaze before the steamer left
port.

er Fails.
Everybody who has ever taken
calomel knows what a strong drug
it is. Calomel spurs the tired liver
as if it were a tired horse, and while
the liver works harder for a lictle
while, it is soon weaker than ever.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a vegetable
tonic that gently induces the most
sluggish liver to work. Taking it is
followed by no bad after-effects. No
restriction of habit or diet necessary.
For either children or grown people.
W. G. Mayes sells a large bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone for fifty cents
and guarantees it to be a perfect substitute
for calomel and will give you
your money back if it disappoints you.

Scriptural Evidences That Are Astonishing?No
One Can Afford to Be
Without the Knowledge.
W'e do our friends a valuable service
when we call their attention to the
j valuable book entitled, "THE TIMB

many Scriptural evidences to prove
where we are on the stream of time.
"Men's hearts are failing them for
1 f??r" and manv of the leading think
ers are proposing remedies to better
conditions. The Scriptures assure us
that man's extremity will be God's
opportunity, and this book holds out
; an anchor to those who fear the ware
of unrest now spreading over the
world. '
The honest heart confesses that it is
at a loss for an explanation of transpiring
events. While we refer to this

i many realize that we are rase approaching
a crisis which is wrapped in
