Senator Pat c'soh had, al, utter.

day, and related TO that official his
version Of affairs in South Carolina,
but forgot to mention the story Of
the fox hunt near Columbia.

Patterson says murders and murder
GUS outrages are of almost daily oc-
currence. He knows that there have
teen no murders in South Carolina
due to disturbance between the races.
Murderous outrages arc not Of daily
or even monthly occurrence. The
only serious distui bance that has
taken place was confined solely to
radi""la and black men.
The sabre and rifle clubs are meIr
local organizations. They have no
onnection with each other. Not a
club we believe was organized until
after the incendiary speech Of Wal,
lace and tho riots which were com,
meuced by the blacks in Aiken and
other places. We have cn) doubt Pat.
terson will say that the riff, club re
Gently organized in Georgetown
means aggression on the part Of the
whites. x town composed Of fee
| hundred whites and taoenty -seuen lam
arcd blacks was kept in terror for
a week by drunken radicals, and
threats %ere freely made TO burn she
town. The whites were defeDceless.
They hive now organized rife club
for self defchsc. And this means
white aggression acoorling to Pat
terson md the rest of tie cowardly
crew.
