TRUCK SMASHES AGAINST CURBS A smash on Main street caused some interest and attracted a crowd at the corner of Main street and Third avenue last Friday afternoon, when a truck which was bom# driven by Snow Bellamy struck one of the front wheels against the curbing was crushed and flattened and the machine went down to -the ground very near to the turnpost in the center of the street. The truck was loaded with bricks at the time. The attention of the driver was attracted to another cairn possibly by some person standing at the corner and this probably contributed to the accident. The drivei ?a4d that there was another car nearby on the railroad tracks and that af Ihe looked back at the other driver 01 some person on this other car, the fcteerinir gear became locked so thai tie could not turn the machine in tim< to keep it out of the sidewalk. There was another man riding oi the truck with the load of bricks, bul neither this man or the driver goi tiurt in the accident.

Thus far 20 counties have been v isited, leaving 17 yet to be reached. The candidates will go to Camden. i')t lior i111 !f a lvn .1 1 w ? ? w-'-nvo w uc VH'U llll.s WLT'K re: Lancaster, York, Fairfield, Chester and Union. A rest period of eight days v. iU follow, after which the party will move into the Piedmont, openin,l>; in Newberry August 17 and concluding the canvass in Spartanburg August 25. The first primary will take place the following Tuesday, August 29. Considerable interest attached to the meeting here. Utterances of John T. Duncan are bitterly resented in Clarendon. Several partisan voters directly in front of the stage ordered Mr. Duncan to sit down and to hvish as he was introduced. Mr. Duncan followed Cole L. Blease, who got a noisy reception. Between 200 and 300 persons left with the former governor, who was the second of the gubernatorial candidates heard. Candidates for congress in the First district also spoke here. W. Turner Logan, incumbent is being opposed by I. S. Hutto of Dorchester and J. I?. Morrison of McClcllanville. and the contest is spirited. Lines of cleavage are apparently being closely drawn between the rural vote and close adherents of the Gr,ace-Logan faction in Charleston. Mr. Hutto branded Mr. Logan as a disloyalist. He pointed to the Charleston American as "a seditious sheet." Mi'. Logan was a director and stockholder. Excited partisans whooped themselves hoarse in urging! that lie continue to "pour it in." Mr. Logan said the enrollment in Charleston was above 12,000 and that the avalanche of votes would bury Mr. Hutto so deep that grass would be growing1 in the Dorchester county candidate's woodyard before Mr. Hutto could dig out. Mr. Morrison said that he and Mr. Hutto were driving the incumbent so hard that John P. Grace had been making the district itinerary with the candidates and speaking for Mr. Loiran after the candidates had been heard. Replying to Mr. Logan's statement that his two opponents were not qualified for the office the McClellanviUe candidate said Mr. Logan was not fit for the place. He warned the people to be on . their guard. There were large bond issues being floated in Charleston. "Somebody's handling the monev and there may be an attempt made to buy the election." Mr. Morrison said he thought the enfranchisement of the women would prove a godsend to the state in that their votes would guarantee honest elections. J. J. Cantey of Summerton, Clarendon county, spoke with the gubernator?.il candidates. Mr. Cantey said , ihe visiting candidates were entitled . to everything the Clarendon people could give except the office of governor. Clarendon had been the mother of a number of governors. He , declined to surrender his right and de. termination to be governor. The state for many years had been ridden with scalawags, demagogues and stale politicians who rattled their dry bones periodically and he would be a new political force in the state. One of his opponents had spoken of him 11 * 1 ? - ! us a oaoy candidate. He might he that, but lie was not a demagogue nor was he a stale politician. There were demagogues who attempted to array the people against the preachers and the teachers, the lawyers and the doctors. The people could not get ^ along without these, and that politician who so tried to betray the peo; pie was a dangerous man and "ought I to he electrocuted without due process of tew." There was much shouting when Cole L. Blease was introduced. The former governor said there were more ; tax executions pending in the state to> day than ever before. This was not , brought about by Blease but by those ; who had been in control of the gov eminent the last seven and one-half years. He had warned the people that if they elected "a certain crowd" s the state would become bankrupt. r Not only were the people nearl> ^ GOODY! 1 L i I m i II rNEA^rv.

I Ful J A I THE gORRY HERALD, CO bankrupt, but there was more lawless ness than 'ever before: more murdei more theft and general violation o the prohibition law. An appropriu tion had been made to enforce th prohibition law. This was expende "on irresponsible fellows called con stables." but who were active in poli tics. When raids were made the I ciuor seized was of good qualitj nothing was said about it and the li quor disappeared. He could nc prove, he said, that some of the cor stables seized liquor and took it t Columbia and sold it. John T. Duncan followed .and mc some pointed opposition from :> voters when he began to speak. Tl.i soon subsided, however, and the usiu shafts were thrown with accurate am which brought much applause. M Duncan said lie did not believe soli respecting Bleaseites would ir.a'o "cheek and jowl with negroes" an help put down white sunremacy i I Soulh Carolina and land themselves i the Republican party. The speakc each day challenges the formei g<>\ ernor to deny that he had receivc Republican money to split the Denu cratic party in South Carolina. 1 he will deny this, Mr. Duncan says li will face Mr. Blease with forme Bleaseites as witnesses. Rcdiice Appropriations. George K. Laney crave much f his time to the items in the genen appropriation bill. The charge ha been made that the amount had boo doubled since 1914. Back then onl $7ri.000 was appropriated for the con j mon schools, while last year the fit ure was a million and ;\ quarter. Tli State hospital had to be largely r< built, because tubercular patients an all had to be put in the same quarter No man would say economize by tal< ing either of these items out. Fui ther, the amount for Confederate vol er.ans had been made $(500,00 0 las year, while back in 1914 only a snia figure was provided. That was ai other item which no one would cu Mr. Laney also reminded that tli general appropriation bill this ye; had been reduced half a millioi while taxes from new sources woul further cut the appropriation bill li around $2,000,000, making the stal levy about seven mills, while in 191 it was six mills. Thomas G. McLeod also gave muc consideration to the tax questio pointing out that the burden in Cla endon county is largely local. Of tl taxes paid in his county, he said, ? per cent is expended within the com ty, while only 18 per cent goes f< state purposes. Burden Largely Local. The people could economize i practically any figure they might d term inc. They could vote off tl special levies for their schools, shou they determine to do so. They cou discontinue their road building1 pr grams, but he did not believe the would do either of these. By contim ing i!>e program of tax reform*4?egi by the general assembly last year, would be possible to restrict the le^ on real estate and personal proper for county purposes, and to provi* all state taxes by indirect metho( such as the gasoline tax, income ta inheritance tax and corporation cense tax. Few farmers weye touch by these. He favored a luxury 11\ where a man need not help pay a t; unless lie feels inclined. Mr. McLeod said the subject sought to impress was that the pc pie must think in the terms of t times in which they arc living. T people are living in the backwash the war when it seemed the fore of evil had been tin ned loose. Ti spect for law must be taught in t home, and the proper atmosphe there would be reflected in the ve diets of juries and the sentences courts. The crime wave would th be stopped by a chief executive w would sustain these verdicts. NOTICE OF DISCHARGE Notice is hereby given that the u dersigned administrator of the peiso al estate of G. C.

Will Jordan, of the Home wood s neighborhood was arrested last Saturday and placed under bond upon charges of disturbing a religious con' gregation and disorderly conduct. The law provides a severe penalty for the statutory offense of disturbing a congregation at a church, or other place of worship. The story goes back to Sunday, July 23rd, when the offense was coni mitted. On that day Jordan went to ' Maple church in an intoxicated condition and proceeded to paint things - very red according to the stories com: ing into Conway and told by those who saw the affair. Fighting and ' j the use of profane language went on J J to such an extent that a messenger was sent to Conway for V. D. Johnson, of the rural police force. ; When I he policeman got there the man had left the church and inquiry at his house failed to find him. It is ' said that he had sobered up to some extent and was hiding in the con*, field. The policeman could not find 1 Jordan and had to leave without his \ man. Instead of Jordan the policeman got a quantity of plum juice which was handed over to the officer for confiscation. Jordan was not ar} rested until last Saturday, about a * week after the disturbance at the church. Failing to find the defendant, Will Jordan, on Sunday, July 23, the ^ policeman went to the home of Harrison Johnson about two and a half or possibly three miles from Maple church and there found a gallon of ^ blackberry cordial and nine gallons of plum juice in a high state of fermentation. The officer says that this is the same kind of strong'drirk that he ^ found at Jordan's home. Tin > big lot of wine and cider was confiscated and f made .a load for the policeman's au. tomobile. The barn was used as a ^ wine cellar in this instance. - ? I CAPTURES STILL, ARRESTS THREE r G V. D. Johnson, of the rural police force made a raid on whiskey stillers _ last Saturday, in Conway township, t across Kingston Lake. He took a still which had about a quart of white lightning in the pipes, showing that ?it had only recently been in operation. The still was located near the r home of W. J. Prince. h After the taking of the still three j_ charged with the violation of the prohibition laws: W. J. Prince, Olen 0 Anderson, and another defendant s named Bryant. It is said that ('l Prince has since admitted that he owned this stilf.
