back for a long time in building the

hills and valleys from Conway to the

over this hard and costly part of it
the work goes on faster since it is
now using the old roadbed between

TRUCK SMASHES

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

Wind up The Lower Half of The
State at Manning Last
Saturday
Manning?Candidates for state ofices
concluded their canvass in the
ower half of tlie state here, there
being between 700 and 800 voters
nesent.
Thus far 20 counties have been
v isited, leaving 17 yet to be reached.
The candidates will go to Camden.

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>

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.

M APLE CHURCH
IS DISTURBED
. 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.
All three men were placed under
" bond to answer to the charge before
