r. A. HUNsINeER PARoLEp

Governor Blease has paroled r. A.
Hunsinger, Of York county. The re-
cord in the case as furnished by the
Columbia correspondent of The En-
quirer Is as follows:
Huntsinger r. A., (white), con-
victed before Magistrate r. A. Craw-
ford, at Guthriesville on August 28,
1913, Of being drunk and disorderly
in a public place and carrying unlaw-
full pistol, and sentenced to pay fine
Of $4,000 or to serve thirty days upon
the public works of York county.
Hon. Thos. F. McDow, former men,
ber of the house Of representatives
from York county, in writing Of this
case stated:
"Yorkville, s. c., Nov. 8, 1918.
Governor Cole L. Blease, Columbia,
Dear sir: Last summer five or six
employees of the York cotton mill
were arrested for being drunk and
disorderly. Among the number was
one r. A. Huntsinger, who has only
one leg. All Of them were tried be-
fore a magistrate and were repre-
sented by me. The jury acquitted
four or five of them and convicted
Huntsinger and another man named
Quinn. The magistrate imposed a
fine Of $1,000 upon Quinn which he
paid. The jury recommended Hunt
singer to the extreme mercy Of the
court, but, notwithstanding their re-
commentator, the magistrate impos-
ed a fine of $4,000. The offence
charged was a very simple one, and
while there was testimony which, If
believed, would warrant the conviction
on the charge Of being disorderly;
certainly he was no more disorderly
than men in higher walk Of life
are every day in the towns and cities
of South Carolina, and for which
they are never in any way molested.
"I know that 1t Is a very trivial
matter to bother the governor Of
South Carolina with, but this poor
fellow has a hard way Of making his
living"
In another letter dated November
10th, 1913, Mr.. McDow states.
Il will say. governor, that 1 have
no personal interest in this case so
far as compensation is concerned, as
I have made no charge against this
man, and will make none. and 1 ap-
peal to you simply because l am Of
the opinion that the fine Is excessive,
and for the reason that I believe that
you will be glad to lend this poor fell
low helping hand In this matter"
In view of the circumstances sur
rounding this case, and facts set

Of any of them when 1t come
to singing political dope, has been
trying his hand on Chas. A. Smith
and John G. Richards. He printed a
letter in the Columbia Record in which
he quoted alleged gossip to the effect
cret understandings with the Blease
following as the result of which they
were to give their quiet influence for
Governor Blease for the senate as
against E. D. Smith in return for a
suspension of the activity Of Govern
or Blease's supporters against them.
The scheme on it's face is what Is
known as a smoker" the object being
to make Smith and Richards declare
themselves for or against Blease, or
E. D. Smith. The article was copied
in the Orangeburg Times and Demo-
crat, and other papers, and in due
course became news" not so much
on account of its original significance
as on account of the interest people be-
gan to take in it. Governor Blease and
Mr.. Richards being old players at the
game, have not allowed their hands
to be forced in any such way; but
Lieutenant Governor Smith is not
quite so thick skinned. Mr.. Leon M.
Green the Columbia correspondent of
the Charlotte Observer, on yesterday
sent that paper statement from Mr..
Smith denying the report, adding that
he is tied to no mans coat tails; but
seeks the support of every voter, re-
gardless of past or present applica-
tions. The whole thing is funny-this
game of politics.

A dispatch from Columbia to the
Charlotte observer the other day rep
resented Spartanburg people as warm
ing up over the prospective candidacy
Of Senator McLaurin, especially after

Tillman. The Columbia dispatch was
met by a Spartanburg dispatch which
admitted certain amount Of interest;
but claimed that the Columbia dis
patch was based mainly on dispatch
from Spartanburg to Mr.. McLaurin
signed MANY citizens Of Spartan
burg" or something like that. Both
dispatches savored Of political dope"
but nevertheless it is fact since Nc
Laurin announced his withdrawal, the
demand for him is more outspoken
than 1t was before.

Horse Traders at BIaeksburg.
There was big crowd Of horse trad
ers at Blacksburg, last Monday and
quite lot Of trading stock; but for
some reason there was not great
deal of business. The sporting blood
seemed to be absent, according to one
of the men who went from. Yorkville
with some stock, "and then suppose"
he continued, "the unusually disagree
able day had something to do with it.
It was fearfully cold"
Selling Without License.
During last spring and summer
agents canvassed Bullock's Creek
township and sold to number Of peo-
pie, including renters and croppers,
medicine chests, taking therefore
chattel mortgages to doubly secure
the long prices charged. On Wednes-
day when a collection agent came
around after the money and started to
clean up a poor negro for the debt,
the negro appealed to Mr.. Jos. M.
Sims at Sharon. Mr.. Sims made in
quiry at the clerks office and finding
that the agent had not paid the 500
license required for peddling such
stuff, oave advice that resulted in the
fellows arrest. He was afterward re-
leased on promise Of settlement; but
the chattel mortgages have not yet
been foreclosed.
Did Not Quite Make II.
Fort Mill Times: An unknown white
man, who claimed Yorkville as his
home, a few days ago all but succeed
ed in disposing Of two bales Of cotton
belonging to Mrs. e. M. Ardrey OF this
city. A tenant on Mrs. Ardrey's plan
tation east of Fort Mill had unloaded
the cotton near the cotton platform
one afternoon and, without telling any
of the cotton men to whom the two
bales belonged, returned to his home
in the country. The following morn
ing a white man Of middle age appear
ed at the platform, had the cotton
sampled, and offered 1t for sale. The
cotton was Of low grade and he was
offered only 13 cents for 1t, but very
readily accepted the price. When ques-
toned by Mr.. ]. F. Lee as to where
the cotton was ginned, the mans home
and why he had brought the cotton all
the way from Yorkyille to Fort Mill,
the stranger showed signs OF uneasl-
ness which caused Mr.. Lee to suspect
that there was something wrong about
the deal. The man claimed that a
number of Fort Mill people were ac-
uuainted with him and said that ne
would get someone to identity MIN.
The local police were requested 10 IN
yestigate the affair and, although a
thorough search Of the town was mace
the stranger could not be located.

ed, rushed in after: the Intelligencer
with a very much exaggerated notion
Of it's earning capacity and paid long
price for it. Our understanding as to
the price paid was between $4,000
and $4,000; but this is not authentic.
But the character and policy of the
Intelligencer began to change rapidly
after the change of ownership. and
many Of the people who were entire
iy satisfied with Mr.. Cheshire's man
agement are not 50 well pleased with
new conditions. Mr.. Cheshire says his
old friends are demanding that he get
into the field again. He refers In an
interview to statement to the effect
that condition of the sale was that
he get out of the Anderson county
newspaper field and remain. out. AS
to this Mr.. Cheshire says that the In

him; but to his wife and he does not
feel bound in the matter.

The effort to force the administra-
tion currency bill through the senate
by way Of the Democratic caucus, at
tempted last Wednesday, has been
abandoned. The understanding is that
Senators Reed and O'Gorman who
were inclined to be recalcitrant, have
come back to alignment with Sena-
tors Pomerane, Shaforth and Hollis,
but Senator Hitchcock declares he will
never surrender. Senator owen who
has charge for the Democrats, says
that a report will be framed within
the next five or six days setting forth
the administration idea apd that those
who differ will submit supplementary
reports. There now seems to be almost
no reason for expecting that any cur
rency legislation can be gotten through
by December 1.

Local History in Review.

In pursuance of plan that has long
been under consideration we are print
ing today the first installment Of re-
view Of news in early issues Of the
Enquirer, and we take pleasure in
promising more to follow.
Although the installment referred to
may be taken as a pretty fair sample
Of what Is to be expected, because of
the nature Of the undertaking and
the fact that editorial time and OPP
as a controlling element in the pre-
paration of the matter, we are not dis
posed to make any specific promises.
That the files of The Enquirer con-
stitute a veritable mine Of local his
tory, and embody record Of the hopes,
ambitions, trials, disappointments and
achievements Of the people of York
county and the state generally, is a
fact so self evident as to be apparent
even to the most commonplace mind (;
but at the same time we recognize
that a summary Of this record that
would do the subject anything like
justice is an undertaking calling for
more labor and greater ability than
we are able to supply.
Even in the preparation Of the few
notes we have printed today, we are
conscious of the omission of scores OF
things that would be as interesting
and as important as anything we have
included; but for that reason we do
not want to try to create the impress
sion that we are making anything like
a thorough job of it.
The principal purpose we have in
view Is to note local events and occur
rences Of the past that seem calculat-
ed to be Of interest to people of the
present generation, and some of which
may furnish hints and suggestions to
possible future instances. 1t will be
our purpose to mention as many old
time names as possible, especially
those that were the most prominent in
connection with the life Of the town
and county. There will be mention OF
different business and professional
people who have figured, public meet
ings, political and otherwise, marri-
ages, deaths, political controversies
weather phenomena, celebrated court
cases and also from time to time mat
ters Of contemporary interest In the
affairs Of the state, nation and world.
OF course 1t Is understood that 1t is
only in rare cases that it will be prac-
ticable to reproduce articles in full,
and in most instances, the review will
be confined to a brief statement of
bare facts; but as rule comment will
be confined to necessary explanation.
We are not now willing to promise
that this summarized review of the
old papers will follow in consecutive
installments for reasons already made
nlain; but we do promise to do the
best we can, and to make the under
taking as interesting and as valuable
as possible.
