Dissatisfaction Fen,

Floaler this time, and Dr. Hickman,
the only announced candidates left
out in the cold by his ersiwhile friends.
Ia view OF the fact that he had an.
nounced long age. andEiO opposing can
didale has presented himself, the
friends Of Hickman are freely express
ing injustice done him. He has al
ready gone TO some expense for an
nouncements etc His record is en-
tirelV consistent with the idea Of the
regular element Of the party. Why
be should be singled out for sacrifice
by them, is not at all clear, 10 his
friends. One of them said publicly
Justice is justice. aud Lawrence
County ought not 10 be deprived OF a
representative just because band Of
schemine politicians want to get rid Of
Hickman " Then what gives it greater
color Of unfairness is the fact that
they've taken care Of Boyd giving him
a second term, when bis record was in
exact accord with Hickman's. What
has Hickman dOne,tO be treated this
way?
The rotation agreement gives bOtt
Senator aud FlOater to Giles County

Cox Replies Hotlv
To Hooper'S Charges
Former Governor Denies Any
Attempt to COnspire Against
Hooper Administration

Bristol Tennu Sept ,2S. -Ex-GoV.
ernor John l. Cox today replied to
Governor HOOpsr's charge that as the
leader Of the democratic majority in
the late senate that he deliberately
entered into conspiracy 10 bankrupt
the state and thereby bring the Hooper
administration into disrepute, He
says that the charge is maliciOusly
false, and in lengthy statement sub
mils figures letters and records to sub.
siantiate bis contention He saws that
il there was conspiracy that Hooper's
official family was the conspirators as
the heads Of his departments got In.
creasss in salaries and in expense ac.
counts Of $S5,O00 which the governors
conference committee failed to cut out.
He says that the loaded bill originated
in the fusion house and that when il
came to the senate he was the first to
sound the alarm, declaring the bill to
be the most extravaeant ever presented
TO legislature, He says he voted
against the bill.
The former governor says that the
general appropriation bill introduced
by him in the senate as chairman of
the finance ways and means committee,
carried in total appropriations S2t9,-
600 less than the financial house bill
and 100000 less than this bill after
the Hooper conference committee, got
through with it,
Taking up Governor Hooper's charge
that the loaded bill would have incur.
red expenditure si,32O,0OO in excess
Of the states revenue, the statement
says; The Hooper conference commit.
tee cut out Of the appropriations the
sum Of S11S,45S OS, deducted this
sum from the sum Of $1,32O,0O0 and
the remainder is the sum of $1,211.-
54lt2 as the sum of the states default.
If Governor Hooper is correct, hence,
the governors claim to have saved the
state the sum of S1,320,000 is based
upon his conference committee having
cut out of the appropriation bills the
sum Of Si1S,458 08. Does moi this
claim, when the record facts are ap.
piled thereto, make Governor Hooper
appear ridiculous before the people oI

FENNELL JAILS
OLD OFFENDER

81 believe that with the arrest and
conviction of Lum Hin, Chinese re-
siding at Camp Number 2, we have
succeeded in putting a ban upon the
extensive and illicit sale of liquor at
this congested section of the city," de-
clared License Inspector Fennell this
morning following the session of po-
lice, court where the Chinese was as
sessed fines aggregating over two
hundred dollars.
According to testimony from Fen
nell and officers, they descended upon
Camp 2 on Vineyard street yesterday
and caught two men making pur.
chases of native wine, commonly
known in police parlance as ''dagC
red" :"".@r. .>.. 81:
One man is alleged to have secured
IA dozen bottles, while quantity OF
the wine was purchased by the sec
ond visitor. Officers Fennell, Belmont
and Akui placed the Chinese under
arrest and then conducted search
which resulted in many bottles of the
vintage being found in number OF
rooms throughout the camp. =.
In lieu OF the necessary funds with
which to liquidate the fines and court
costs, the defendant Chinese was COM
mitted to prison. 1t is expected that
he will serve some seven months un
til his score with the city and county
is satisfied. ..-.
Fennell is of the opinion that g
large share of the intemperance
brought. to light at the Vineyard street
camp was occasioned by the blind
piggery operated by this defendant.
He alleges that quantities of the wine
and liquor were stored in neighborine
rooms by the willy Chinese. The re-
suit was that with a succession of Wis
its to the camp by officers little or ne
discriminating evidence was discover
ed, until the successful raid made yes
terday. .....
