WOMEN NOT ALLOWED. I
Aiken Municipal Club Refuses to Let
the Pair Ones Cast Votes.
Aiken, Oct. 16.?Friends of equal
suffrage here are indignant over the
action of the Aiken municipal club
Tuesday night in voting down an
amendment which sought to admit
women voters to membership, this
action disqualifying these recently
enfranchised voters from participation
in the municipal primary of November
1. The club is made up of
white voters and accepts members
from any political party on its roll.
But when the amendment was offered
to the constitution which would
make white women eligible it is
charged that steam roller tactics and
gag rule prevented the matter coming
before the body for discussion. The
amendment was lost by a vote of 61
to 50.
AlKen win nave une muuiviyai pnmary
on November 1 and the second
one two weeks later. A number of
candidates have announced for mayor,
aldermen and commissioners of public
works. There are enough women
voters in Aiken, had the club admitted
them to membership, to have had
a considerable influence on the election
of officials.
There were a number of women
present at the meeting Tuesday night
and all resent the rejection they had
at the hands of the club's steering
forces. Although starting in a modest
way, it is said on good authority
that there is a municipal unrest just
at the present in Aiken which may
# break forth at any time with volcanic
fury.
STABS BROTHER IN HEART.
Sumter County Negro Claims He Acted
in Self Defence.
Sumter, Oct. 16.?A quarrel that
ended in a tragedy grew out of a dis
pute between two brothers, Elias and
James Singleton, about five miles out
of Sumter. The two brothers were
laborers. There was no eye witness
and only Elias remains to tell what
happened. From his tale it seemed
that the two were gathering hay when
they began to quarrel over the fact
that a horse belonging to Elias had
been found in the corn patch belonging
to James. Things had gone pretty
far when Elias expressed it as his
opinion that it made no difference if
the horse was in the corn patch considering
there was no corn there.
James then attacked him with a pitchfork
and Elias protected himself wit*
his knife. The knife sank deep in
the heart and the man was dead before
a physician arrived.
