Yesterday was labor day, but those who
are waging the shrievalty fight did not
therefore desist from their tolls. Two of
Rev S. f. Pearson strongest supporters
were about the town In the heat of the
afternoon distributing little colored slips
of paper bearing this inscription:
ENFORCEMENT VS.. MULTIPLICATION
All voters in Cumberland County in
favor of faithful and vigorous enforce
ment of the laws, including the Proh1bl-
tory law should work ana vote for Rev.
Samuel f. Pearson fer Sheriff, the Peo-
pie S Candidate.
At Mr.. Pearson's headquarters some
thing of a sensation was caused by a Wis
it from Mr.. Levi GreenIeaf, chairman OF
the Democratic city committee, who was
supposed to be the bearer of some sort OF
proposition. Whether this was SO or
not Will probably remain one of the mys-
teries, for Mr.. Pearson is reported to have
delivered to him a vigorous grafton
which did not allow the Democrat to get

When asked later about the interview,
all Mr.. Pearson would say WAS: II re-
buked him.
