KD1TOK GOB8 TO JAIL
K?(?h Heavy I^IkI Suit Fur Denunciation
of Sheriff
St. George, April 16.?Charged with
criminal libel in publishing alleged
false statements about O. M. Limebouse,
sheriff of Dorchester couirty
J ml other persons connected with the
heriff's office, W. B. Tarkington, editor
of the Dorchester Kagle, a weekly
newspaper published here, was released
in bail of $1,000 late tonight.
He was arrested yesterday.
The editor is to appear at the next
term of the court of'general sessions
for Dorchester county. The warrant
was sworn out by Sheriff Limehouse,
who today said he would also bring
a civil suit, asking damages of $60,000
agumst the persons responsible
for the charges printed in the Kagle.
Tarkington, through the columns
of his paper, had criticized Sheriff
Limehouse. The editorial upqn which
the warrant was based appeared in
yesterday's issue of the paper, concerned
the disposition of a seized
still.
Sheriff Limehouse states that the
still is now in th<* jail, that it has
been the^e ever since the raid.
Sheriff Limehouse is serving his
fourth four-year term as sheriff of
Dorchester county and is well-known
throughout the state.
Tarkington came to St. George
about two years ago (as a printer in
the office of M. P. Felder, who was
then editor of the Kagle. A short
time thereafter Felder disposed of
the paper and Tarkington's name appeared
at the head of the editorial
page as editor, although, it is said,
according to the records in the office
of the clerk of court, he is not the
owner. He is said to have come originally
from North Carolina.
