Aiken Committee Throws Out Patter-
sons Charges-ByrneS Has IS
Plurality.

The State.
Aiken, Sept. 16.-With all the votes
of the district in, with the contest in
Aiken and Hampton dismissed James
F. Byrnes, for two years solicitor IN
the Second circuit, is elected to con-
gress by the small plurality OF oS
votes. The contest was a warm one,
and the exact result of the primary
was not known until every co:iutg bad
made the official count.
After hearing the contest in Aiken
this morning. the executive committee
dismissed tie protest and declared the
result OF the election as nanvasS2d
yesterday, which gave Byrnes in this
county 2,153, and Patterson 1885, thus
ending one of the most remarkable
campaigns ever experienced in thls
district.
Protest Dismissed.
The committee met this morning al
10 o'clock to hear the evidence On the
charge made yesterday by counsel for
10. Patterson, as to fraud and bribery
at the Langley box.
The protestants put up only one wit
ness, V. D. Kelley, Of GloverEille, who
testified that he received two one
dollar bills for casting his vote for
Byrnes, Fallaw, Cleckly, Marchant and
Blease. He explained in detail who
gave it to him and under what circWr-
stances. declaring that he did It 50
that he could come up and tell about il.
The witness was not taken seriously,
and he provoked hearty laugh all
over the court room by his vivid recol'
lection of the incidents of election day.
His testimony was practically aEnull"
ed. so far as weight was concerned,
when he said in reply to a question
from Mr.. Byrnes' counsel, that he aad
not worked for three years and that
his mother supported him. He said
he was sick, though he looked very
hearty.
Witnesses Missing.
C.E. Sawyer, counsel for Patterson.
said that he could produce no more
witnesses. They had promised HIM to
come to Aiken to testify, he said.
Mr.. Sawyer, in his argument, made
the point that he did not care VINO
was elected congressman, but that he
wanted to see cleaner elections in this
county, and besought the committee to
begin a campaign of cleaner politics
by making an object lesson of this
county.
D. S. Henderson made clear and
impressive argument on behalf of Mr..
Byrnes, and Immediately after he was
seated motion to dismiss the pro-
test was made and carried unanl-
mously, as to the Langley, Graniteville
and Montmorenci boxes and the official
result was declared.
