MASKED PARTY,
WHITE ROBES
Seize Boy and Girl in Anderson
County and Warn
Them
Anderson. ? Robert W. Sullivan,
prominent youn^r business man of this
city, and Miss Ruby Floyd were
taken from an automobile in front of
the young woman's home one ni^ht
last week by masked and white robed
men and after being driven three or
four miles in the country were warned
not to be seen together in public
again.
The two were brought back within
a few blocks of the young woman's
home and put out about 45 minutes
later.
Reports were current that a whipping
had been administered to Mr.
Sullivan, but he denied that he had
been thus dealt with. He told police
that he had been warned not to be
seen in company with the young woman
again.
About 10 o'clock two cars tilled with
masked men drove up behind the car
of Mr. Sullivan in front of the home
of Mrs. Ada Floyd, the young woman's
mother, on east Benson street.
One group of men seized Mr. Sullivan
while the others took Miss Floyd in
charge and the two cars were then
driven rapidly away. Mr. Sullivan
and Miss Floyd say they were taken
three or four miles into the country,
where the warning was given.
Anderson. ? Robert W. Sullivan,
secretary of the Orr Cotton Mills, and
Miss Ruby Floyd were kidnaped from
an automobile in front of the young
woman's home l/ite one night last
week by a band of masked men who
"gave them a lecture," as they described
it. *
The man was warned not to be seen
in Miss Floyd's company again, he
told police, but lie denied reports that
had readied (hem that he had been
beaten. Me and .Miss Floyd .and the
latter's mother, Mrs. Ada Floytl, informed
the police that the men were
dressed in regalia resembling that of
the Ku Klux Klan, and. Miss Floyd
asserted she was positive one of the
men was a negro. The couple said
they thought they would l?e unable to
identify any of their abductors.
Sullivan, who is about 81 ye.ars of
ago and in addition to this business
connection is secretary-treasurer of
the South Carolina Cotton Manufacturers'
Association, was recently taken
in custody at the home of Miss
Floyd, but no charges were A
charge of "di.^ordt rly conduct" was
made .against her, however, as a result
of remarks attributed *?> Jjer in
a conversation with a neighbor who
had complained to the police! She is
about 18 years old.
The masked band came up in two
automobiles and four men put Sullivan
in one machine v'r.iie three took
Miss Floyd in '.he other and rapidly
left town. Police >vero informed by
Mrs. Floyd, but the only clue they
had until the couple, returned was the
marks of struggle around the cars.

**************************
Washington. ? Masquerading as
Schedule 11 in the proposed Fordne.vMcCumber
tariff bill is a familiar
creature of the wool trust. It was
known as Schedule K in the PavneAldrich
tariff of 100!) and it led an
outraged public to strew its Republican
sponsors 011 the political ashheap.
It was exposed then as a virtual license
to plunder at will. It is back
again in the Fordney-McCumber tariff
with a new name, but with all its old
evils, including an indirect tax on
American consumers at the rate of
$310,000,000 a year.
Repuo 'can leaders, with automatic
fidelity to precedent, have arranged
this schedule exactly .according to the
specifications laid down by the wool
trust. Hut they are not trying to concoal
their apprehensions over this resurrected
monstrosity, with its wollremembered
boomerang effects. Neither
are they undertaking to defend it.
!t is conceded to be the product of
the powerful wool interests, designed
to reward thorn at the expense of the
public.

of the making and meaning of

Tariff Hoard Surrendered.
The Tariff Commission is theoretically
an impartial hoard of tariff exi?<M
t--. In the making of the FoiyjnevMcCumher
wool tariff it surrendered
completely to the domination of the
supeiilohbyists for the wool manufacturers'
vast combination. The resultant
Schedule 11 is the most flagrant j
example of dictation in the whole
Fordnev-McCumber series of awards i

leader of the farm bloc and former
president of the National Woo!

h'ame for the reincarnation of Schedule

that followed exposure of th.e socalled
33 cents a pound duty on

rates to he put into the FordneyMcCumber

DEMOCRATS ARE
URGED TO SIGN
Encourage the Writing of Own
Names on Democratic
Club Rolls
To Club Secretaries and Enrollment
Committees:
The Democratic club roll books for
the county opened on the first Tuesday
in June and will remain open for
the enrollment of voters until the last
Tuesday in July (July 25). All of
the'books have been sent out and in
many places the committees charged
with supervision of the books are actively
at work.
There is a natural tendency among
voters to put off enrolling until the
last week, which always causes confusion
and oftimes means that many
voters are denied the privilege of
voting because of their failure to enroll
their names. Please give ample
notice of the location of the books
and try to get as- full and early an
c% 11 o ? ? no nAooil\ln
V III \'l I I IV I I V Uil JIVOOIUIC.
Women will also enroll this year.
The impression has gone out that a
woman must have a registration certificate
as a prerequisite to her enrolling
on the club book, but this is
a mistake. The only requirement is
that he or she "shall be 21 years of
age, or shall become so before the succeeding
general election and be a
white Democrat. Shall be a citizen
of the United States and of this state;
has resided in the state two years, in
the county six months prior to the
succeeding general election and in tho
club district HO days prior to the first
primary."
Another matter and of greatest importance:
Assist the illiterate voter.
Don't discourage enrollment because
an applicant cannot write his or her
name. They have as much right on 1
the books as the rest of us, but encourage
them to write their name
even if it takes a half hour. Many ::
one will ask you to write for their
because they write n poor lvmd. but
by a personal enrollment you will assist
in the campaign of the illiteracy !
commission of the state for a "cross-j
markless" club roll.
Women should sign their given
names, prefixed by "Mrs." or "M:
