Witnesses.
Among the witnesses here to tes'
tify are Jno. T. Farley, who then rep
resented Fleischmann &. Co.; w. D.
Roy, head of the Belroy Distilline
company and secretary of the whis'
KEY trust, and Col. C. w. Dudley, OF
the United States Distilling company
Col. Dudley has been very much
in demand for couple of years, but
a stroke of paralysis has kept him
away. His presence here was quite
a surprise. In the hay-dey OF the
dispensary he was the representative
of the Live Oak Distilling company
and later he represented Clarke Bros
& Co., of Peoria, ILL.,, in their famous
transaction with the board now un
der Indictment.
The presence of these witnesse:
leads to the belief that they will tes
tifv as to the agreement of liquor
salesmen with dispensary officials te
have a regular scale of graft, as was
testified in Columbia year ago
Joe w. Wylie, of Chester, who ha:
turned States evidence, will agar
testify to receiving graft under the
scale agreed upon.

The Press and Standard speaks of
the expense of transferring records.
There was no expense of this charac-
ter when Bamberg county was cut
off from Barnwell, and there need
be none in this case. Our clerk OF
court has put in writing his agree
ment to record free of charge any pa
pers on record in Colleton for the
people in the territory to be cut of,
and there will be no need to spend a
whole lot of money to transfer dead
records, as was the case we under
stand when Dorchester county was
formed. This is a mere bugaboo on
the part of our contemporary. Our
friend is also harping on the question
of stock law and says he is now will
ing to give the people stock law. Why
this conversion at this late day?
Why didn't you give it to them be-
fore? But it is too late now, when
the people have made up their minds
to change, to hold them by promises
which should have been made long
ago. We have an idea that some
people around WATERFORD would be
willing to promise anything to War
rem township now, but it is too late

acterS not found easily IN tne every
day walks of life. After his pleasant
visit he seemed anxious to get back
home in response to mandates of the
ten little Grahams then anxiously
awaiting the fathers return home
that night. This correspondent had
the pleasure of reviewing one wing
of the little army of grace and beauty
one day last summer at their vener-
able grand-father's, DR.. N. F. Kirk
land, Sr., of the Buford's Bridge com
munity. It is an army of hope and
promise, indeed.
Meeting with Daniel o. Hunter
County Commissioner-elect Folk, and
"Bubber" Fender on the streets here
last Friday, was the renewal of an old
acquaintance engendered in puppy
hood days, and which ripened into
friendship as all grew older, the ties
of which it is hoped will last and
please memory till the quartette find
pleasant fields in which to dwell and
labor, not made with hands, eternal
in the Heavens.

The Press and Standard of last
week devotes good deal of attention
to the movement to annex a portion
of Warren township to Bamberg
county, and quotes Mr.. A. W.. Brab-
ham, of the Buford's Bridge section
of this county. Mr.. Brabham IN d
letter to our contemporary, states
that taxes in Bamberg are 400 per
cent. higher than in Barnwell or Col
Teton. He is simply mistaken. We
are willing to leave the matter to the
auditors of the three counties, and II
they say Mr.. Brabham is correct we
will donate any amount up to 500
to any charity he will name, provided
he will do the same if these gentle
men say he is wrong. We do not go
into details here, but these can be
easily arranged if the proposition
suits him.

Somebody has evidently been CIV
ing our Ehrhardt correspondent a
large fairy tale. No one that we
know of believes that any aspirant
for congress in 1912 issued the circu-
lar letter in the congressional cam
paign this summer. That circular
contained statements rejecting on C..
w. Garris and J. O. Patterson, so
many people conclude that it was is
sued to injure these candidates.
Events, or rather the lack of events
since the primary, are hard to under
stand. But we are still hoping to
hear that some efforts are being put
forth to run down the author, and in
the meantime we intend to keep the
matter fresh in the minds of the
people of the second district until
there is something done. The mat
ter went too far long ago to be drop
ped.

True Bill Against Blocks.

Chester, Nov. TN the circuit
court here this afternoon Attorney
General Lyon handed out an indict-
ment for conspiracy against the own
ers of the Richland Distilling COM
pany. The persons accused are l. w.
Bernheim, of Louisville, KY, Isaac
Block, of Cincinnati, Nicholas M.
Block, and Alexander Block, of Ma
con, Ga. 1t is alleged that these per-
sons entered into a conspiracy to de-
fraud the State of South Carolina in
the matter of selling whiskey through
a board consisting of Joe B. Wylie,
John Black and J. M. Rawlinson.
The specific amount named, in this
indictment is a check for $1,575 paid
to Joe B. Wylie in Chester.
The allegation is that the accused
violated the common law against con-
spiracy by violating specifically stat
ute 3S2 against giving rebates and
extra compensation. While these
persons are named individually as
malefactors, the agency through
which they reached the dispensary
directors was the Richland Disull-
ing company.
The witnesses summoned before
the grand jury in this case we're: w.
D. Roy, head of the Belroy Distill-
ing company; Henry Samuels, of
Chester, and Joe B. Wylie. The
grand jury, after examining these
witnesses briefly, brought in a true
BILL through J. NJ. Latham, foreman.
1t appears from this indictment
that Joe B. Wylie has material evil
dence of more than one transaction
in which he got graft in keeping with
the scale adopted by the liquor sales
men and dispensary officials when
the new board of which Wylie was a
member came into Office.
