Wahertjoro, ^uvi'. 4v~*A general
muss meeting uf ajl eifcwens of the
county has been called to me<rt at the
court house on Monday, August 10,
fVlix'k, noon, for the purpose
of taking some action relative to the
of a.nsriA ing L/it- fish and
K a ii?i- of the county. A rail .signed by
numi i ?m- citizen* has In-en issued,
and there will doubtless be a large
crowd present to discuss ways and
means to furnish protection for the
fish and game of the county. Pvaul
Sanders of Hitter 'had numerous pe
titions prepared to secure signers
calling for this meeting. Hv has
found great interest in the pwposed
protection, and is assured that there
will be a large number of .interested
citizen* present to discuss the matter.
Some of the petitions are not in, but
those returned indicate the interest
of the people.
llhe following is the vail issued:
- "This call is addressed to every
man and woman .in Colleton county
who is interested in the enforcement
of the law, the suppression of law
lessness and the preservation from
destruction of 'the fish and game in
our county. If the present condi
tions are permitted to last for a short
time longer our fish and game will
be a thing of the past and we will
learn, but too late what a priceless
heritage it was. That we should sit
with folded hands and permit this
wilful and wanton destruction to con
tinue is impossible to understand.
The laws passed by the General As
sembly for the protection and pre
servation of our "fish and game aae
being openly and flagrantly violated
in every stream and in every com
munity from one end of the county
to the other. . Fiish that escape the
net are either dynamited or taken at
night with the gig by lain fern light.
So widespread and persistent has be
come this practice, and the fish in
our streams is depleted to such an
extent that it is now. almost impos
sible for the law abiding fisherman
to secure enough to make a meal for
himself and his family.
' With reference to gaTtie private
property has become a public com
mon and every provision of the crim
inal law on the subject i-s being
openly . flaunted with very little, if
any effort, at concealment.' The
whole year has become an open sea
son and the darkness of the nig<ht
the favorite time for the slaughter.
"The improved highways and the
automobiles have, done mucb to hast
en the crisis. It is now an easy mat
ter t*>, reach our famed fishing terri
tory from any point in the state or
nearby points in adjoining states
within a few hours. o Advantage is
being taken of this quick and easy
method of transportation and the
public highways are teeming with
parties equipped with every device
for the violation of the law and the
rapid destruction of t(he fish and
game. *
"Realizing: that the conditions are
alarming and conscious of the neces
sity for immecbiate action, we are,
urgently requesting that every man
and woman in Colleton county who
is earnestly desirous of seeing the
laws enforced and our fish and game
preserved from utter and wanton de
struction meet us. at the courthouse
at Walter'boro, Monday, the 10th day
of August, 1925, at 12 o'clock, noon,
for the purpose of taking such action
as may be deemed necessary.'
The Rush To Florida
The l ush to Florida is not a lan i j
settlement proposition, but a land J
trading speculation. Not one out of !
ten thousand of the buyers of Florida I
land expect to settle on the land or j
?attempt to make a living by cultivat
ing it. They hope to sell it At., a
profit to some other speculator and
thus make some easy money in a
hurry. There is much rfidney circu- j
lating in Florida ? millions of it ? but
it was not made in Florida, and when
the land trading fever subsides much
of the profit's (that shrewd and suc
cessful traders fvave gathered from
bhe less shrewd will be salted down
in stocks, bonds and' steady Income
"producing enterprises in other sec
tiorra. The ultimate owners of much
of the Florida land that is being gob
bled up at fancy prices will find them
selves possessed of permanent in
vestments that will not pay carrying
chargos. Florida is a fine field now
?for traders, and those who know how J
and also know when to cash in and
quit wall live on easy street here- !
after. ? Sumter Item.

THEY WILL MAKE HOOZE
Development of Hogback Mountain
Will Not Drive Out Moonshiner*
(ireertvilh?, Auj{. 5. ? "It makes no
difference \\<hat they do up on old
Hogback; they may build their roads,
their club houses, their golf courses
and thqir residential sections; they
may make a summer resort out of it,
they may make it a playground for
the city folks, but there are some
people up there who'll make liquor no
matter what comes or w'hat goes,"
This was the substance of a state
ment made this morning by Alex
ander Pitman, a real son of the "dark
corner," who with his son, Holland,
are held in the county under the
death sentence, they ?having been con
victed of the muvder of State Con
stable J. H. Howard on January 1,
1924.
News that has come down from
the majestic heights of old Hogback
and neighboring mountains, to the
effect that R. C. Rrtnick, an eastern
real estate man has bought upwards
of 14,000 acres of mountain land em
bracing Hogback ai%l otlher moun
tains, and that he is building a mam
moth resort development in these
hills, is more than interesting to Alex
and Holl Pitman, who have not seen
thei beloved mountains and valleys
for more than a year.
To both it seems inconceivable that
the mountains could be anything
more than they have been for eaons
and aeons of years ? any more than
they were when tihey (the Pitmans)
roamed that country footloose and
free with scarcely a care to trouble
their minds.
But now comes to them news that
the narrow, snakelike winding roads
are being rebuilt into automobile
highways over which the "city folks"
with their 80-horsepower sixes, eights
and twelves can whiz by leaving a
trail of dust as they ascend the
heights.
"Aw they're not doing all that up
oil old Hogback," chimed in Holland
this morning, as he, his father aad
a reporter were discussing the devel
opment. "They're not doing any
thing but building a few little log
shacks ? I call them pole . houses."
The "pole shacks" Holland was
speaking of is a log club house, which
in the future, no doubt, will be the
center of social activity on the (Lizzy
heights of the plateau which extends
heaven ward 3,228 feet above sea
level.
Charged with the task of building
a road to the top 'of old Hogback
were three Greenville engineers, Dan
Huillick, W. D. Neves and R. E. Dal
ton. They have effected the difficult
! engineering task of building a road
' from Tryon, N. C, to Hogback, a
distance of seven miles.
All this is highly interesting to
Alex Pitman, but he finds it very
difficult to believe. He explained
very carefully that no matter what
comes or what went there were men
in those mountains who were going
to make liquor.
"Of course -"they're going to make
it, " he said. "Why, theye're making
it today and ?thfey'H be making it
tomorrow."
It .will be remembered that it was
right in the shadow of Hogback that
j the "Pitman Murder Case" arose. On
the morning of January 31, when
Constable Howard ran in to "flush"
some moonshiners at work, he was
killed, shot four or five times. The
I Pitmans were accused. They were
convicted, but they still protest their
i innocence.
One hundred ami one homicides
took place in South Carolina during
the first six months of the present
year, as compared with 81 during the
corresponding period for 1924, as re
ported by the South Carolina Bureau
of Vital Statistics. For the Mttie
i period 34 persons committed suicide
in the state, 32 suicides occurring
daring <tbe fifcvt six months of last
year.
Money
If you are wrong and thv other fvl

j wh<? Wish to justify their unwilling*

"dollar chasers." As a term of re
proach, the expression hats a miser
able .225.
bet it be said to the everlasting
glory of Americans th^t they are dol
lar chasers. Chasing dollars keeps
them close to the band wagon in th?
march of civilization.
The mare isn't the only thing that
money makes go. It makes ignorance
go -and superstition, and dirt, and
disease, and crime.
Kind a section of America in which
an idea regarded with suspicion
??-where men work long hours for
small wages, where there is a little
salu for books, and demagogues play
on passions and line their pockets
from the public treasury ? and you
have found a section that hasn't yet
developed the art of dollar chasing.
To get money U the first business
of those who would advance civili
zation. It isn't a sordid business, any
more than /the building of Universi
ties is a sordid business. It is h
noble business, for all progress de
pends upon it.
When men get money, they begin |
to have a little leisure. With leisure
and full pockets, they begin to invite ;
their souls. They get n bath and a !
manicure; they buy a book; they |
learn good table manners; they learn
to scorn ignoble things and filthy
things; they begin to cultivate a taste
for talk that does not concern itself
with personalities, and to enjoy an
exchange of ideas.
America is cleaner and more at
tractively attired and broader-minded
today than it was fifty years ago
because it has more money. It leads
civilization because its pockets are
full.
You can't train men to become gods

"Oh, how I did suffer from indi

five years. I had just gotten in
such a wretched state of health I
didn't know what to do. The gas
pains in my chest and around my]
heart were so terrible 1 just feit
like 1 would smother. And nights
1 had such fearful pains in my side
ami chest I couldn't sleep. 1 tried
so many treatments without results
that I was alarmed over my con
dition.
"But, oh, what a blessing- four
bottles of this wonderful Karnak
has been to me. 1 began improv
ing from the very start, and now
all that awful gas and indigestion
has entirely gone. The pains have
disappeared from my side ana
chest and I eat iust whatever I
want and as much as I want now
without it hurting me one moment
afterward. And nights I simply
sleep like a child.
"It just seems almost like a
miracle that four bottles of Kar
nak could have done what It has
for me. I can never praise it
enough and I want to help every
person I can find out about this
wonderful medicine."
