claimed that party policy can make

does appear from the foregoing that

A LIVELY SCRAP
BETWEEN CANDIDATES.
GARY AND PATTERSON
AT LAURENS.
A Hand Primary by Senator Till
man Showed That the Crowd
Favored the Dispensary.
From Greenville News

Laurens, S. c., Aug. 4.-Messrs
Gary and Patterson shook their
fingers in each others faces for
halt \ minute and ended in q
brief but lively "mix up" to vuat
appeared the intense enjoyment
OF 600 Laurens voters and 50
ladies, the latter occupying
choice seats Immediately in front
of the stand.
Mr., Patterson has been daily
reading newspaper clippings
which tended to make the impress
sion that Mr.. Gary favored local
option as to high license in his
Charleston speech. and the infer
ence from his stump suggestion
was that Dir. Gary has tackled
since leaving Charleston. Gary
resents the imputation that he
took such a position in Charles
ton.
Gary was the last of the puber
material speakers this afternoon
and instantly launched into a
vigorous reply to Patterson's re
marks. He related his version of
the Charleston incident and
limited that Patterson knowingly
misrepI esented him.
Patterson rose, faced his man
and remarked that he would ex.
plain.
Gary said he wished no expla-
nation and Patterson said that
all the candidates would bear out
his statement.
Meanwhile the men were fac.
ing and their fingers were point
ing be.igerently.
Gary inquired:
"Do you deny what l say is
trueg"
Patterso II do deny it,"
Gary remarked that Patterson
told an untruth, but probably did
not use the term liar"
Patterson's right shot out with
a develish upper incline, and
Gary's response was instantane-
ons.
There was a clinch and jabbing
and punching, while the ladies'
contemplated fainting
1t all looked like a Punch and
Judy show.
Lieut.. Col. James Tlllman,
Chairman Smith, Sheriff McCrea-
ry and others quickly untangled
the scrappers and held them far
apart.
Men were standing up yelling
melodiously.
A Laurens cop arrived and ex-
tracted 'plunks" from each of
the disorderlies'
Gary exhibited an inch cut of
the left cheek bone, and Patter.
son has a small shamrock en-.
graved on his upper lip.
After the meeting both gentle
men shook hands, and the hatch
ct was buried. They express great
regret for the occurrence.
Senator Tillman spoke last,
late in the afternoon. He repeat
ed that there was an alliance or
concert of action between the
barkeepers and the ministers and
took hand primary, which
showed nearly the whole audience
in favor of the dispeDsary. OF
course there were many who did
not vote, but the great majority
lifted their hand.
Hoyt was interrogated, but re.
sponded well and made a good
impression.
McSweeney had the best recep-
ton.
