Richland Post Denounces Schemes of
Politicians
Columbia.-The Richland county
pont of the American Ixjgion wa* on
record Friday as opposing the use of
legion meetings by political cundidates
for campaign purposes and was
appealing to other South Carolina
posts to take a similar step.
In a resolution passed last night,
the Columbia legionnaires declared
they looked "with disfavor on such
candidates as may seem to be using
the American Ugion for selfish purposes"
and continued with this statement:
"That we call upon all local posts
in the state to adopt stringent rules
and regulations barring candidates
for political office, municipal, county,
state or naticpttri, who m iy already
have announced or who may l>e contemplating
entrance in political campaigns,
from discussion of issues affecting
directly or tending to encourage
their candidacy while attending
local, district or state meetings
of the American lA'gion."
The resolution said it "is reported
that there are certain candidates,
member- of American Legion posts in
South Carolina, and others, who are
busying themselves attending American
Legion Post, district, group and
state meetings in behalf of their candidacy."
Please To lie a Candidate
Rock Hill, S. May 17.?Senator
Cede L. Please, in a letter made public
here announces that be will 1m*
a candidate fo* re-nomination in the
August primary. He says:
"As to my candidacy, all I care to
-ay is that 1 will bo a candidate for
re-election, and from tin* many letters
which I am receiving and have
received from all over the .-.ate, not
only from many who have been my
friends and are still, but many
others who have never supported
me heretofore. I am satisfied that
I will }>o re-elected.
"I am very busy here and have
done very little talking about my
campaign and have given no interview
to anyone. I expect to stand
squarely on my record, of which I
am very, and I think justly proud."
In the 48 hours' ending last midnight
14,000 passengers left New
ork on 12 Atlantic liners for Europe.

. Dog Whips Wildcat
Winnsboro, S. C.?Allen Sniffen,
young white man of this place, tells
a thrilling story of a battle between
Nell, his bird dog, and a wild cat.
Young Sniffen had gone sniping in
the woods, his dog quite a distance
in the lead. Suddenly he heard
sounds of a commotion, and ran forward.
A wild cat had jumped on
Nell as she was passing a small tree.
The cat had landed on the dog's
back, but Nell shook her off by rolling.
Next she charged the cat j)efore
it had regained its equilibrium.
Sniffen said he would have shot the
? I
!
cat but he was afraid of hitting his '
bird dog.
He said the fi^'ht lasted at least
ten minutes, and that two or three
times the cat nearly clawed the dog's I
jugular, but finally Nell got a hold
on the cat's throat and it wasn't
long till the cat died. Sniffen verified
his story with the eat'3 carcass
and his dog's wound's.
Inspired by seeing a sister he had
not seen for 20 years, Charles Elgue
of Hamilton, Ohio, a paralytic for
more than a year, arose from his
chair and walked across the room.
