e. C.. Campbell Given
2 Years For Biaamy.

Eugene O. Campbell, self-confessed
bigamist Of Columbia, 8. O., was SEN
fenced Monday, in criminal court, by
Judge Frank B. Gary, to serve two
years at such labor as he is able to
perform. Judge Gary stated in pass.
ing sentence on Campbell that he took
into consideration the physical condi-
tion of the defendant and telling him
that by entering plea of guilt he had
acted wisely. Campbell broke down
and tears flowed freely as he was
being sentenced.
The Campbell case is familiar to
the public. On February 8, 1913, he
married Miss Emma Small, daughter
of D. M. Small, while he had lawful
wife and children living, residents of
Columbia, where Miss Small also re-
sided. After marrying Miss Small
who was only about Is years old,
they went to Atlanta, where Camp.
bell was arrested and brought back to
Columbia.

Dispensary Petitions All In.

The advocates of the dispensary in
this county on Saturday filed petitions
with the county supervisor, asking for
an election on the proposition of re-
establishing the dispensary in Lexing-
ton county.
It is claimed that upwards of two
thousand names are on the list. Su-
pervisor Corley will, however, make
a thorough examination of the petitions
before ordering the election, and it
will be several weeks, he says, before
he can possibly make any announce
ment. If the petitions are legal, and
it is found that the requisite number
has asked for the election the super.
visor will act favorably; on the other
hand. if it is found that the petitions
do not come up to the requirements
of the law, the supervisor will refuse
to order an election. "This is too i'm
portant a matter to pass over without
careful consideration" said ::Supervi-
sor Oorley yesterday, land I am going
to look into the matter carefully before
I make decision"
