Later that night, three hos s from lireer were robbed of a truek and beaten on the ( amp road, har.ier that evening, a negro was severely slashed in a tight, another negro was earved near 1'aris that same evening, and before morning a third in a tight at Live Points. That same strenuous Saturday night there was a shooting scrape on the Anderson road with no casualties and an automobile thief was caught soon after he stole the car. While chasing an automobile thief two detectives tar. their own car into a telephone poie and brought down three poles, entangling them in the wires. Several men wanted elsewhere were arrested by the police and held for officers in other cities. The recount by the executive committee of tlreenwood county of all the votes cast there for representative at the first primary resulted in changes from what had been declared in the first eafivass of votes. The committee rescinded its previous action in declaring Robert E. MoCaslan, T. Frank McOord and W. J. Moore nominated and issued anothe.declaration nominating McCaslan, Moore and F. F.. Wells. Moore and Wells were tied at 3.450 votes and MsCord was only six votes behind them, but behind the flag. A motion for a second primary was overwhelmingly defeated. Wells had never been a candidate before, and the other two elected were members of the last ~ house. A Muzzled Press Favors Criminals Columbia, Sept.

LIGHTS ON BUGGIES I There is a law on the statute hooks that requires all vehicles operating *)n the state's highways to be provided with lights at night. That this lavs is pot generally being enforced or observed is readily seen by the number of accidents in which a Venn it without lights is involved. In Marion, several nights ago, an aged couple were riding in a buggy in reminiscent solitude. "A car looms, out of the darkness," says the Maridq .Star, then, continues The - ..?r. "another from the rear who imbed b> the oncoming light can: -ee the oik nintiig vehicle in ^>eween. A cram! A t ry!
