Major Wylie's statement to The Iteocrd was by way of reply to the fonowlug artiole, which appeared Thurbday morning In the Columbia State and credited to the Yorkvtlle Enquirer: "Mr. Wylie, of the state ^oard o< dispensary directors, was on the C & N. W. train Wednesday morning, go leg toward Gastonla; and between Y irkvllle and C'ovi he said in the picenoe of Dr. J E Massev and Mr. F P. McCain, wno were going to Clo ver wlih the county osmpa ga party, that the stale dispensary has alwayi been corrupt and it Is as corrupt as It has ever been. He said tnat the siatt board is corrupt; but be Is only onr man agalnkt two and cannot help him self. Hb Ok ltd that reoentlv, over hit pjutesii, line oiuer two members of tin hi ard has purchased two thousand cases of so called case whiskey. Upon the arrival of the whiskey he, Wylie, insisted on having it analyzed. Tin analysis showed 2* per ocnt. of alcoho and the balance was various kinds oi ohemtcalp. Asa result of the analysis, and Mr. Wylie's threatening t< make a fuis, the 1 quor was sent back Dr. Massey aid Mi. McCain both repeated Mr. Wylie's statement to them in their speeches at Ulover." In commenting on the Er.qurlerS artlole the Columbia State said; "Tin above statement is col-firmed by ? Bpeoial to The State from Yorkville. whloh gives the same report of Di rector Wylie's conversation with Messrs. Massey and McCain. Thi State endeavored Wednesday to ob tain statements concerning the matter from Mr. Wylie and Messrs Massey and McCain. It was fcuud that Mr ] Wylie, whose home is in li'chburg, Chester oounty, is at Clcvel&nc Springs, N. C. A telegram was sent to him there asking him for a state meat by telegraph. Mo reply was re ceived, it being possible that Mr. Wylie was unable to reply Thursday night. Messrs. Massey and McCain were both away lrom home Wednes day in attendance upon the York county campaign meeting at some pcinl in the oeunty and neither of them could be reaohed Wednesday." Major Wylle contradicts The State kLd the Ecqulrer In what he says be low: "I was on the train on the day mentioned and in company with Dr. Massey and Mr. McCain, but the gentleman quoted by the Enquirer po'sl bly misunderstood me or aid not oatob my exact words. I "In diaousaing the dl?penrarv, Dr. j Massey said th&o he wanted 10 ko .p it oiet.ii arid with that idea be hud ( voted for me in the legislature. < ' I told him that 1 thought as long ] as tne whiskey houses kept putting ; off mean liquor on us, it wouli. be im- j possible to *eep down talk, and that j in my opinion county dispensaries . would be no better. I went oh,to say . further, than, my attention hsd been 1 called to th- quality of seme goods we c had bought, and l got some simpe-% r and carried them to Columbia myself; a intend! g to have them snal; zee; but t when 4- got to Columbia, 1 f< u id mat t Commissioner latum i ad already e given samples of these got ds to tut (l cnemlst to be analyzed; that ti e chem 1st had reported uufavrably upuu tnem e baying mat the goods were of lo* 11 grade in alcohol percentage and every u uicer way, and mat. the dispensary ti force had been in H rue ted by uiccouq- t mtssioner to return them, t "Mr. McCain then anked me how v mucn we were going to r'turu. 1 rc plied, 'Something Jike 2 000 gallon*, in cases and barrels.'

Uhe more the people of South Carolina see of Governor 1 ley ward the more they like him. lie is always level headed and acts with wisdom in all cases of emergency. I'his was amp y demonstrrted in hiselVortsto have the liend. Bob Davis, legally executed according to .aw rather than by a mob. Governor I ley ward could have sat in his cilice and ordered a regiment of troops to the scene to uphold the in .vies esty of the law, but he knew that this would precipitate a battle between the troops and the people who wanted to lynch the fiend, and he wisely refrained from ordering out troops, but took the train and went to the scene of the trouble himself and tried to persuade the outraged people to let , the law take its course, lie thought that if moral suasion culd not stop the mob that soldiers could not, and he was rifht. Had the crime of Davis been any other than the horrible ( 3ne it was, we feel sure that the ;rowd would have hee led the earnest pleading of our eloquent Governor md that there would have been no r ynching. But the crime of which Davis was guilty is the one crime /hat is punishable by death anywheie n this country as soon as the fiend an be caught. Uliat is why the mcb u efused to listen to Governor I ley ward ,nd grant his earnest plea that Davis ? >e turned over to the law and be put n Wnll.r , h u uviiui iv/kuiij. mm wus iill uie uov* "" rnor asked. He knew Davis dcservd death and he would be speedily trid and convicted and hung, but the 10b was determined that vengeance ould be visited on the head (f the y end then and there. The mob heard he Governor respectively and many of ,v hem no boubt regretted that his risoes could not be complied with.
