Columbia, 'larch 6.-rhe attentioi
of Governor Manning was called to at
editorial in a recent issue of the Ab
beville Preps and Banner on "Law nu(
Order," in which this stateient oc
curred: "Some week 'ago a negr(
man was taken in the open day fron
his home in this county by a parti
of white ineln, wh'ose names are in tih
possesion of thb solicitor of the 811
circuit, and severely whipped anc

what they are going to do about it
referring to their statements last sim.
nier In the campaign that they werr
for law and order, and now calls IIp
on -both the governo' and solicitor' tc
prove that they are for law enforce

Governor lanning said the matte
referred to had been called to his at
tention 'in a conversation with a citi
zen, or by an oilicer. le asks fore aill
davits on which to proceed, but hias
been unable to get any. The governor
said he could not, of course, answei
for what Solicitor Cooper is (oing; but
he and Slicitor cooper have conferred
on thitmatter and 'he believes tile So
licitor is doing his duty in it.
Governor Maiinning Is giving the
minutest attention to alleged lawless
ness in eev y locality which comes tin
(lo his nofice, either ofilcially or oth
erwise. lie recently wrote to Solicitor
Glunter regarding the killing of a no

Iiaimberg coifnty. Phe coroner's in
(juest failed to hold any one for J)hc
offense, bt there Is reason to believe
that Solicitor hinter will have the
matter thoroughly looked Into.
A complaint reached the Governor
from Damberg-county that one Jeff .1.
Hughes, <who was convicted in 1906 o!
wife beating, aind seitenced to the
peinientiary, and who was paroled by
Governor Ansel on tile con(litiOl that
if lie ever be.Convicted of beating his
wivfe again lie be recoimiitted to serve
the remainder of his sentence, was
again beatinag hi is wife and raising
trouble genieraly. The governor
proplll)tly looked into the matter and
fouind that the onIly condition of file
parole being "if he ever be again con
victed of beating its wife" lie go ha< k
to the penitentiary, lie could (10 ilotl
ing, for there is no informalion that
the main hils ever been indictedh again.
It might be wb'll to note that the comn
plant against Hughes was not made
by his wife.
IEvery conmplaint of illicit 'whiskey
selling is given instaiit attention by
the governor and lie has wreitten a
special letter to every sheriff to stamp
out the "blind tigers". One complaint
of "blind1( tiger" actIvities r'eachied the

Ing on in his territory as well as other

Tho ins'tances in which- the governoti
Ia acted promptly on complaint,
which have come to him about "blind
tigers" are numerous for lie has acted
vigorously in every one. He 1s de
terinined to pitu this tundesirable class
of citizens out of business, and the
earnest way in which lie- has ' gone
about this matter has produced effec
Live results. in reply.to a letter from
Sheriff Ackerman, of Colleton county,
in which the 'sheiIff reported his ac
tivity in suppressing "blind tigers" the
governor said: "I hope that you will
soon have this traffic broken Ii)."
Several sh'eriffs have made reports
every few days as to the results of
their efforts to suppress 'illicit whiskey
dealing. In a letter to Shtielif Thomas
of Cherokee couity, the governor said
"Keep up your work; the very fact
that th-. sheriff is alive and active will
help scare out the illibit dealers."
Now that tlie matter at Fair Play, in
Oconeo county, has been ended it can
be stated that that situabion gave tle
governor hours of serious considera
tion and lie did all lie could in the
matter, and his efforts resulted in se
curing a great deal of the evlidence
that was presented at the trial. Of
course the' governor has nothing to do
with- the verdigt of the jury nor is le
criticising that verdict, but he did his
duty by using all the machinery at his
command to gc't at the facts and the
evidence, and to bring the guilty par
ties to justice.
Replying to a letter from Mayor 1H
L. Spears, of TAndrum, regarding the
blind tiger situiationi in h141s town, -the
governor said: "I aim of course, very
desirouis of helping you wipe this
illegal traflic out, but at the same time
I am very much opposed to hiring
detectives for t'his work unless it is
proven beyond the shadow of a doubt
that the local oflicers cannot or will
not. enforce the law.'
Proper efforts on the part of the lo
cal authorities to e)force the laws is
Insisted on by Governor Manning, and
lie will assist, them in every way pos
sible, and with every agency at his
hands. Ile would'rather, much rather,
that the local ofilcers enforce the laws
and lie is dqing everything lie can tc
get them to do so, but it Is his inten'
tion if thle local ofllicers will not do
their duty- to take such steps as lie
may deem proper to see that the laws
ar properly enforced.
TPhe governor is devoting much at
teintion to the sittiation in .Columh
and Charleston. As to the latter city
the illness of Mayor Grace necessi
tated a delay in the governor's further
plans, for -he is waiting until .the mayor
can recover from an operation for ap
pendlcitis and will 'then take uiip the
matter with him further on enforcing
'the laws in thh City by the Sea. Tfhec
governor has already held con ferences
with Mayor Griflithi and~ Chief Richard-I
son of Colum'hia, and will co-oper'ate
with, thlese officers in every effort
whlich' they make for the enforcement
of laws against illicit 'whiskey selling,
gambling or any forms of violation of
laws that might lie going' on in thie
Capital Oity'.
