( WalteHbor , July 1'.J.?The shooting ' < 01 Dr. J. H.

The speak-;> ers thrilled the audience wita state- j j ments in favor of strict law enforce- J < l ment and at :ew meetings have such , j declarations been more warmly re-! ! ceived. A respectful hearing was ; given all candidates by 40 citizens of < Clletou county, aiui only once did j < th?? audience become party to a dfts. j ] tussion. This was when A. W. Jones I and James A. Summersett, candidates j ; l'or comptroller general, engaged in; ( a contest o1.' sharp epigrams of a per- J) sonal nature. A hand primary was r taken in which Mr. Jones was winner. ! 1 From the point of view of applause j i Mendel L. Smith, candidate :or gov- ( ernor. wen the day. The audience, i on the whole, lowever. was undemon- t strative, but took interest in all 1 statements concerning the race for i the United States senate.

Bethea, candidate for ^ lieutenant governor, spoke feelingly ^ of the sj.oting :ray in Columbia in which Dr. Mcintosh was wounded. t From this he developed a strong at- . tack on the disregard for law. '.Mr. l Bethea was given two bouquets. William M. Hanier also spoke of , the s. ooting of Dr. Mcintosh, giving ? the information that the wound was s not serious. J. A.

He referred in this matter " to t'.e cases ih Saluda and Edgefield f counties. In answer to other charges 1 of James Summersett, he asked his opponent what he had to do with the c pardon board and the pardoning of ; more than "900 buck niggers." He took a hand primary and many hands ' went up in bis favor, as against only 1 a few for his oppcnentfl He was given a bouquet. James A. Summersett in rebuttal charged that Mr. Jones had held the j * office too long. He said that an'J equalization b-ard of five as recom- i mended by Mr. Jones would do a - ly 1 with local representation in the mat- * ter of taxation.^ At this point Mr. .Tones objected and the audience enjoyed the sharp answers and replies of the rival candidates.
