Sensational Charges of Bribery
fa Reeent Election.
Dillon, April 9:?The news that
the conditions which existed in'the
N primary election here had reached
the Attorney General has created a
sensation in Dillon. There are many
speculations as to whether the Attorney
General will investigate and
if he does what the result will be.
There are some who believe that
an investigation would lead to convictions,
while others think that it
would be a fruitless effort.
There are many who assert that
they know of irregularities which
could fce proved beyond a doubt and
that the evidence would not be
hard to obtain. This has reference
to the fraudulent use of whiskey,
money, beer and alcohol.
This, the arguments produced indicate,
would apply to some of the
officers elected and to some of the
candidates defeated. All the candidates
who were in the field had
. many enthusiastic friends and when
it came to the last primary there
can be littte question but that extreme
measures were used by both
candidates and friends to elect their
choice.
To say that this kind of work met
with the approval of the people
would create a wrong impression.
It is deplored by many citizens who
believe that an election so full of
corrupt practices will never again
be tolerated in Dillon.
Charges have been made that
within 50 yards of the Dillon poring
place there was liquor, and aj
plenty of it, and that it was used
by political aspirants in getting
votes.
It is charged again that money
was niaced in the hands of certain
individuals with the understanding
that certain precincts .were to be
carried for certain parties. The
election as a whole is looked upon
by many of Dillon's best citizens
as a shame and disgrace.
It is alleged that one individual
received as much as $400 for his
services at one precinct. It is alleged
that certain politicians offered
definite sums to individuals provided
that they carried certain precincts.
* There is one member of the court
house commission whose conduct in
the last primary election is now
J \ being investigated. The charge is
that - he accepted bribes from certain
aspirants for office for his vote
and influence. The commission prefers
at present withholding the
name, notwithstanding it is being
generally talked.
In the case above named there
has been no final action, as the case
is in the hands of a committee who
will make a report at the next
meeting.
TRUCK GROWERS ASK RELIEF.
Want Express Rates on Strawberries
Reduced at Once.
The State Bureau, 12 Post Building,
Washington, April 8:?Following
the suggestion of the secretary
to the interstate commerce commission,
the Lake City truck growers'
representatives have now made
a special request of the Atlantic
Uoast Line company and of the
Southern Express company to make
an immediate reduction in the r$tes
on truck and on strawberries, without
the thirty days' notice which is
allowed by law. The complaint filed
with the interstate commission was
to-day forwarded to Traffic Manager
Brand at Wilmington and Mr Loop,
vice president of the express com
VT
pany, at ^natianoojja. uu unci uc,
who represents the Lake City district
in Congress, got up a letter
which. after being signed by all the
South Carolina delegation in Congress,
was sent to-day to these officials.
It is represented that if the
rates and regulations should be
changed with the usual thirty days'
notice it would be too late to affect.
this year's crop, which is now already
on the market. What the
truck growers want is an immediate
change.

The sum of $205,486.38 represents
the amount received this year for
the fertilizer tags. The total amount
received for last year was $202,741.31.
This indicates that the farmers
of the State are using more fertilr er
or that the companies expe<t
larger sales than in previous yearr.
There is a tax of 25 cents on every
tnn nf fprtilizer sold. It is expected
that 1,000,000 tons will be sold before
the end of the year.
Why does Great Britian buy \
its oatmeal of us?
Certainly it seem* like carrying
I coals to Newcastle to speak of exporting
oatmeal to Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds of thousands of cases of
Quaker Oats to Great Britian and
Europe.
The reason is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods of
manufacture so that he might get that
desirable foreign trade. *.
How well he has succeeded yrould
be seen at a glance at the export reports
on Quaker Oats. This brand is
without a rival; is packed in regular
packages, and in hermetically sealed
tins for hot climates. 51
