"The entire transactions as brought

plains Course.
Spartan burg, July i".?Senator
Howard B. Carlisle, chairman of the
dispensary Investtg itlng c? mmlttee of
the legislature, said today tli it the
committee would meet In Columbia
probably Thursday to continue the
Investigation,
Samuel J. Nichols, the attorney of
this city, mentioned in the testlmon>
of the Burns detective, E. S. Reed,
at Augusta Saturday as having agreed
to secure from Qov. Blease for $15,
000 a pardon for Janus Johnson alias
ii\\.< I?? Cord, tin- convicted safeblower,
will go before the committee Phurs?
day and reply to the testimony, This
was agreed upon by Messrs, NichoW
and Carlisle.
The committee will also endeavor
Thursday to have on hand the Char?
leston men, who were mentioned at
previous meetings as having knowl?
edge of the collection of graft iron.
The Charleston blind tigers by Ben?
jamin Stothart, chief constable. The
committee has been unable, up u> this
tine, to have ai] the witnesses wanted
appear. Mr. Nichols declined to com?
ment on tin testimony Involving him
other than to say that much of .t
was false. lie said he preferred l.o*
to gay anything until Thursday, when
his statement would b< math under,
oath and become a part of the rec?
ord.
c. r. s n,-. the attorney mentioned
having collaborated with Mr. Nichols
iii t'n ?fioit to secure a pardon for
Johnson, had expected to issue a state
ment, I Ut it was not forthcoming to?
night.
.Mr Carlisle would not express an
opinion aa to the guilt or Innocence
of those accus? d by the witnesses or
in the documentary evidence taken at
Augusta. He said the com mitte? hol
not decided whether to hold another
hearing in Augusta or whether to take
any more testimony from Thomas B.
Pelder and the Burns detectives. When
asked why the committee had admit- j
i.'il evidence not hearing directly on
the dispensary situation, for the speci?
fic Investigation of which the commit- !
let- was appointed, Mr. Carlisle said
that in Mich case it was permissible
under tin- law to investigate collat
teral matters which might tend to
show the character of the persons un?
der Investigation,
This rule was laid down In the im?
peachment of Warren Hastings, gov?
ernor general of India, more than 100
years ago. Such evidence was admis?
sible, Mr. Carlisle pointed out. he
cause it Was difficult to get either the
giver of a bribe or the recipient there?
of to admit II and it was sometimes
necessary to prove guilt to show that
the atmosphere enveloping a man whs
such as to make it probable that lie
would accept a bribe.
it the man is accused of the specific
murder it is not permitted to Intro?
duce testimony that he committed
another murder, but if he is accused
of receiving stolen goods it is allowed
und. r the law to show that on some
prev ious occasion he received 3t n?_?n
goods. On the same principle, since
Gov, Blease has> been accused of a -
cepting briber in connection with the
affairs of the dispensary, evidence
that he accepted bribes for pardon*
way admissible.
.Mr. Carlisle further pointed out
th.it Gov, Blease bin.self had Invl'ed
the closest scrutiny of all his acts,
Mr. Curlisb drew attention how? ?*r,
to the fact that the committee ha l
barred all the evidence whl?*h Mr,
Pelder sought to introduce in regard
t<. tho governor's private life.

Dear BUI: Well 1 am hero in XVa York enjoying my vacation,
where 1 thought I would never be able to take one. Xou see I
really have io many living expenses that i never got n chance to
lay aside a "trip fund." However, last fall, a friend of mine in
Bumter told me that he had taken a trip the summer before; by
saving a small amount each week from his "Incidentals/' and de
positing these amount! in the People's Bank. You know they pay
4 per cent ihterest, and your money's there "in b lump*' at the
end of the year. I'd advise yon to try it. Your;' Henry.
