eally the entire day in the Federal
court in the trial of T. NJ. Angle. pres
ident of the Dry Fork Distillins Com

On the government.
The Stevenson Distilling Company
began operations at Dry Fork IN pc
cember. 1906. and had license 10 cor
duct both wholesale and retail ilquor

rbis company did an enormous mail

Dur,np the investigation here last
tal, fthe Dry Fork Company Mr.
stevenson appeared before the federai
grand jury and was lnaue 10 ,u'n
over to the government the accounts
and records of the company Whlch ne
headed. These accounts. including the
stnhs of the checks he drew during
the period of operation, were miro
duced to-day.
Nr stevenson was questioned at con-
siderable length by District Attorney
Thomas Lee Moore, regarding me
checks he issued in favor of the Dry
Fork Company, which were recorded
in the check book as payment for mer-
chandise. He explained that in the
majority, II not practically all, of the
cases. the term merchandise was used
for whskey. Counsel for the defense
objected TO the introduction of the
stubs OF checks. The objections were
overruled and the testimony and
statements of Mr. Stevenson provision
ally admitted.
1t is expected that this point will be
argued at more length laNcr on during
the trial According to the claims
made by the government authorities
the records OF the Stevenson Distilling
Company show the purchase and the
payment for 10000 or more gallons OF
whiskey from the Dry Fork Company.
The books of the Dry Fork Company,
1t is alleged. do not show the sale OF
a large quantity of this whiskey
Late this afternoon r. II. Witt. agent

Senator and former member of the
Democratic State Central Committee,
in letter to John Whitehead, dele
gate to the Democratic State Convcn-
ton from Norfolk. comes out strongly
in favor Of the abolition OF the state
primary system. DR.. Barnes urges Mr.
Whitehead to uphold Judge n. T. w.
Dukes hands in his fight on tho pri.
mary at the coming Democratic State
Convention.
DR.. Barnes says in part: "As a
scheme to prevent manipulation anu
corruption, as was claimed by those
who foisted 1t OH the Democratic par
ty, 1t has been n stupendous and ridt-
culous failure. l will not say it was
conceived in sin, but I will say it has
worked iniquity. 1t stirs up strife and
engenders feuds which are never heal
ed, ard thus tears the party into
pieces"
DR.. Barnes says the people, espo-
cially the farmers, are tired of the
primary system, and arc wishing for
return to the old days. when mass
meetings and conventions were held,
which always wound up in love feasts.
Mr.. Whitehead, in discussing the pri-
mary system. says IL the plan is main-
tanned by the Roanoke convention, he
does not know how the party will
meet and declare itself on the rising
temperance or prohibition issue, now
sweeping over the State. He points
out that candidate may be nomik
mated, who may commit the party to
prohibition. when the party itself is
not in favor OF prohibition.
