The candidates for county offices
wound up the campaign here last
Saturday. All of the candidates were
present, and the friends of some
from nearly all sections of the county.
The people began to arrive in
town early for this, the last speaking
of the county campaign. The speeches
delivered by the candidates were
the same in substance as those delivered
at the other meetings around
the county. Nothing of any unusual
interest developed. The debate between
Messrs. Buck and Stanley, by
far the most interesting in the campaign,
created the most interest.
After Saturday's meeting everybody
at once got interested in the
approaching election which would
would come off on Tuesday of this
week.
The tale of the results of the campaign
is told elsewhere in these
columns.
RETAIL GROCERYMAN
MAKES ASSIGNMENT
Mr. J. J. Seale, who has been conducting
a grocery store in Conway,
found it impossible to meet the demands
against him, and last week
made an assignment for the benefit
of creditors. A number of small accounts
credited out in the business
and which he could not collect from
the parties owing him, appear ta be
the main causa of his failure.

MADE FINE SPEECH i
FAVORING MANNING
At the end of the county campaign
neeting last Saturday afternoon (
lere, after the county candidates had i
Addressed the voters, Hon. R. B. (
"Scarborough delivered an eloquent t
md most telling speech in favor of \
j^Belection of Richard I. Manning }
^Pthe second term as Governor of i
;his State. He began his address by i
saying that the issue in the Gover- ]
lor's face was Manning or Blease. ;
He brought forth the facts showing
Jijs was so. He spoke for more
than an hour.
In the course of his address he
paid a glowing tribute to Hon. Jeremiah
Smith who presided over the
meeting. He then praised the administration
of Governor Manning in
eloquent terms, and defended the
course taken by the Governor in relation
to the State hospital for the '
insane. He spoke here from actual
knowledge gained as one of the regents
of that institution, and he told
of the great work that is being done
there by Dr. Fred Williams, the new
superintendent. He stated that Dr.
Williams is a specialist who has no
equal in the country. He said that
Richard I. Manning is fearless and
upright and stands for law and order
and is no friend of the blind tigers,
reviewed the charges made against
Gov. Manning and answered them to
the satisfaction of all present. That
Governor Manning came nearer be
i ? ?i
nig a uve, reai governor or all
the people than any man that had
held the office in 20 years.

FIRE AT ALLSBROOK
DOES GREAT DAMAGE
Mr. J. R. Allsbrook, one night the
first of this week, lost his cotton gin
and the building in which it was contained,
by fire which it is said must
have caught from a spark thrown out
by the late train passing along the
railroad tracks nearby.
The engine and boiler which furnished
the power to run the machinl
ery was not destroyed as these were
in a separate building far enough
away to make them safe.
The damage was about three thousand
dollars, and it is not known
here whether there was any insurance
on the property or not.
o
G. VV. Collins, one of our prosperous
farmers called in Conway one day
last week.
There was sharp competition in
some of the townships for the place
of township supervisor.
A. M. Rabon, E. M. Booth, J. M.
Sellers, C A. Anderson, J. F. Gore,
J. M. Singleton, were all noted as being
here on business last Saturday.

GERMANS IN CAPTURED
I HLNunto Ant oLAlK
This is the Charge Made in
Berlin Against the
French.
Berlin, Aug. 20>.?The charge that
the French have an organized force
whose duty it is to exterminate alt
the Germans found in captured
trenches is made in a statement issued
today by the Overseas News
Agency, as follows:
"The French some time ago introduced
a new fighting system which is
the most cowardly and flagrant violation
of the laws of war developed
up to this time. Coincident reports
confirm the fact, not known until
now, that within companies special
detachments have been formed with
express orders to remain behind in
captured trenches and exterminate
ail Germans yet alive. These troops
are called "nettoyeurs" (cleaners or
sweepers). Their equipment is not the
rifle, cartridges and bayonet of other
soldiers, but the revolver, knife and
hand grenade.
"When the French storming column
succeeds in crossing a trench the
nettoyeurs enter and start the work
or cleaning me trenenes ot all the
living. Hand grenades are thrown in
the dugouts, where there are often
wounded men. Those who escape from
the hand grenades are killed by revolver
and knife when they attempt
to come out. This terrible slaughter
is continued from man to man. Every
man, whether wounded or not, whether
armed or not, is mercilessly stabbed
or shot."
o
A. T. Hucks visited rnnmnw m
business last week.

L. F. Shannon was here last week.
Germany's sugar production this
year will exceed that of 1915, according
to statistics now available* bT
about 300*000 tons.
