DIR. Garfield interviewed.

In the course of an interview, DR..
H. S. Garfield, present incumbent and
republican candidate for renomina-
ton to the office Of Coroner. gave out
the following statement concerning
the duties of his office and his pros
poets for success at the primary elec-
ton to be held next Friday.
The Doctor is confident that he will
win the primary by very large mar
gin, basing this calculation upon the
facts that he has given his personal
time and study during his first term
| in office to the energetic and honest
performance of the duties thereof;
that there is a very general sentiment
throughout the county that the labors
peculiar to the coroners position can
be most economically and efficiently
discharged by a member of the med
| ical profession and 10 the well estaD-
lished precedent in his party that an
official who has made good in his
first term shall be returned again, II
he so desires.
! Discussing the functions of the cor
oners position the Doctor said that
the old view of it's insignificance had
given place to one much more in ac-
cordance with the facts. While not
clothed with the authority of a judi
cial body yet the coroner's court oc-
cupies a very important position In
our public life and when its members
are carelessly chosen Is capable OF
producing some very discreditable con-
sequences. The findings of a coro-
ner's court are a primary factor In
the guidance of public opinion and IT.
Investigations concern the character
and responsibility of individuals and
corporations and sometimes the per-
sonal liberty of those accused of neg
ligence or crime. The coroner's cour
often lays the foundation for lega
proceedings Of the most extensive ano
important character involving tn
fundamentals of equity and law ant
questions of large moral and financia
responsibility.
The rapid growth Of our tndustrie
such as our vast. machine operates
grain farms the increasing railroa'
mileage: our lumber, wool and girls
| mills: the automobile on our road
| and the steamboat on our rivers; tn
| public service corporations other thal
| the railroads: and the army whic
forever travels but pays no transpor
T, tation are all proportional factors i
an annually increasing number Of ac
cidental fatalities.
The powers and privileges of tn
coroner and his court are almoi
without limit. under the laws Of tn
state and the recent enactments d.
signed TO adjust questions Of comper
sation between employer and LAHORE
have made the coroner's work MOI
difficult without increasing his con
pensation. He must search dilligent
ly for the friends Of the namele
dead TO the end that the body be r.
stored to its relatives no matter no
lowly his apparent estate may ha'
fallen Some Of these are waywar
sons coming from homes OF honor al
even affluence

WHITE MAN KILLED.
Hit by Baseball Bat by Some I'm.
known Negro

Five Negroes-James Nesbitt,
Paul Mills, Mollie Mills and Joe Jack
son-charged with the murder OF
Manning Forester, a white man. at
Landrum, Saturday night, have been
arrested and lodged in the Spartan
burg county jail to await trial. The
testimony produced at the cororner's
inquest established the fact that For
ested received an injury to the head
by means of baseball bat In the
hands Of one of the accused, which
caused concussion Of the brain.
The difficulty, according to the tes-
timony in the case, arose in a res
taurant conducted at Landrum, by a
egro, Abe Mills. It appears that
lester, accompanied by friend,
!. lie Henderson, went into the ne
gro's restaurant Saturday night and
ordered fish and cocoa cola. In max
ing settlement for the order, the tes-
timony shows that the negro claimed
the white men had not made settle
ment in full, and fuss ensued.
While the proprietor Of the restau-
rant and the white men were in the
squabble, it is alleged that several
negroes came into the place and par
ticipated in the trouble. Other ne
groes, it stated, came to the scene Of
the trouble from the rear apartment
of the cafe.
In the general disorder which fol-
lowed the witnesses testified they
were unable to state who inflicted
the blow on the head of Forester
which caused his death. The greater
weight of the testimony, however,
tended to show that J.-mes Nesbitt
was the principle in the act. 1t is
alleged that the bat used was the
property of the negro, Joe Jackson,
who has been arrested in connection
with the case.

Norwood Explains Necessary Condi-

j. ". Norwood of Greenville, presi-
dent of the Norwood National bank
of that city. has advised that his offer
of a reward of $1,000 was for 'the
apprehension and conviction Of the
person or persons who instigated" the
"attempted assassination Of DR.. Nc

and conviction Of the person or per-
sons who attempted the deed.
1t was announced that Mr.. Nor

rest and conviction of the assailant
or assailants. He asks that this be
corrected. Following is the state
ment that was issued by Mr.. Nor
wood:
II personally offer a reward of
$4,000 for evidence resulting in the
conviction of the person or persons
who instigated the attempted assas-
sination Of DR.. James H Mcintosh OF
Columbia. I offer this in addition to
any other reward which may be Offer

confinement is rendering it more

dition will be improved SO long as

I can not understand why DR.. Nc
Intosh denies the genuineness Of his
signature, and especially since wait
ing from the date Of this certificate
up until July, 1914, and after the
death OF DR.. A. B Knowlton, when,
as matter OF fact, me certificates
have been on file during the entire
time, and the governor, in his state
ment OF paroles, pardons and COM
mutations, at the session Of the gen.
eraI assembly, in 1913, presented
said reasons to the Senate, and the
same are now q part Of the pern1a-
nent files Of the general assembly Of
1918.
My reasons for employing DR..
Knowlton and DR.. Mcintosh were be-
cause they were men we'll known
throughout the State, and had the
reputation of being physicians of
splendid ability and men Of high
character, and I felt that a certifi-
cate from them would have weight
as coming from men high In the med
icas profession.
I am thoroughly convinced that if
had the time and opportunity to
get together all Of my various papers
and memorandums In this matter
that could easily and clearly estab-
lish the fact that this Is the original
signature of Dr.. James H. Mcintosh.

President Harrison.
But every cent Of this was to
meet obligations incurred during the
acquisition period and so President
Finley had not a cent Of new capital
to do things>he desired. He did get
s31, 100000 new money from sur
plus income which he ploughed into
the property in the form of improve
ments. But he could not make great
improvements like giving adequate
terminals to the South. How often
I have heard him wish for money to
do this.
'tHe did start to furnish some ter
minals, for the collection of roads
President Spencer had bought was fit
to go into a museum. Until recent
year the railroads of the South have
been horribly inadequate because the
traffic would not support improve
ments
sMr. Finley was not able to do
much, but he started out to iron out
this collection Of railroads by build
ing terminal connections. AS soon as
he died I went out and borrowed
s10,0Oo,00e on the credit he had
made for the Southern to do some
of the things he had so wanted to do.
If President Spencer is to be known
as the maker of the Southern
President Finley is to be known as
the builder of it's credit and organi-
Zation.

TREATS FARMER ROUGH
THE GOVERNOR BAWLS OUT RE-
SPECTACLE FARMER.
When Oconee Iiller Says He Saved
Money Through Smiths Advice
Coro-,nor Hakoc Finn of Him

Governor Makes Fun of Him.
The following article was clipped
from the Farm and Factory, a news
paper published at Seneca:
Several different reports Of the
vehement conversation between Gov.
Blease and John T. Dyar at Walhal-
Ia last week have been heard here.
A representative Of this paper was
not present at the Walhalla meet
ing and Farm and Factory carried
no report Of this feature Of the cam
paign meeting. 1t is said by some
that Gov. Blease's bitter words to Mr..
Dyar were uncalled for, while others
approve Of Blease's attack.
"The Keowee Courier of this week,
has a lengthy write up Of the meet
ing and in reference to the Biease-
Dyar spat that papr has the follow
ing to say:
"'How many of you farmers got
any advance in price for your cotton
by holding it on E. D. Smiths ad-
vice." asked the governor.
"'I did, said John T. Dyar, one of
the most prosperous farmers of Oco-
nee, who resides in the Seneca-New-
berry section.
"'Yes, your clothes locke like you
have gotten a whole lot for your cot
tom came back from the governor.
"T got more by holding on his ad-
vice
YOU'RE nice looking something
to come up here and interrupt a gen.
tleman when he is speaking, aren't
you? What you want to do is to go
back home and learn some manners.
You look like you need to stand there
and hold to the back Of that chair.
You ought to get behind it for shame
at interrupting a gentleman"
Commenting editorially on the In
cident, the Courier says fuhtrer:
John r. Dyar, who lives near Sen
eca, is one Of the best farmers In
Oconee. He has made success OF
his business; he has worked for and
earned every dollar he owns. He is
what is known as self-made man,
and he has every reason to be proud
| of the job. Gov. Blease's taunts and
iabs at him last Thursday at Wal
halla were unjust and uncalled for,
The governor asked a simple Ques-
ton and Mr.. Dyar gave civil reply
What more could a gentleman want?
Yet Mr.. Dyar got unkind jabs and
taunts that were unjust to him and
to an Oconee audience. There are
hundreds Of farmers in Oconee de-
serving the highest praise for their
attainments, but we doubt If there is
any more deserving than DR.. Dyar.

After Shooting Mcintosh.

After Shooting Mcintosh.
1t has been learned that Mrs. J. ".
Marshall and her daughter, Miss Mary
Marshall, Of 1914 Bull street, Colum-
bia, saw a man leap the brick wall OF
the First Presbyterian church yard
near the gate on the Bull street side
a few moments after the shooting Of
DR. James H. Mcintosh Thursday and
run south along the sidewalk in the
shadow. Tsey last saw him as he
passed the home Of Dr.. William Wes-
ton on the southwest corner Of Lady
and Bull streets.
Mrs. Marshall and her daughter
said that they were awakened by pis-
tol shots and went to front windows
of their home, which is on the east
side of Bull street, directly opposite
the gate of the church yard wall.
They heard, they said, another shot
and a cry for help, and then few
minutes later, they could not say just
how many, as they were very nervous,
they saw the figure of man come
over the wall near the gate and run
along the sidewalk and disappear
down Bull street
Neither Mrs Marshall nor Miss
they said, could describe the
man. They said that they were very
much excited and that the street was
dark. At first, they said, they could
not tell the locality of ne firing or Of
the cry for help. They heard, they
said, persons stirring over at the Nc
Intoash home next door, on the north
east corner of Lady and Bull streets.
When they saw a man run out Of the
Mcintosh home and west down Lady
street they thought that the shooting
had occurred at the McIntoshes.

With billion and nearly three

and about s600,000,000 more Of coin

Tuesday night the United States had
no cause for alarm over the tremen-

York to war-clouded Europe.
Secretary McAdoo explained that
the country never was in a better
position to send some of its millions
abroad and declared there was moth

the election of any one candidate but
"Shall we again enthrone law and
order and make life, liberty and

Blease?"
Senator Smith said he had been
abused for giving all his time to the
farmers. He had given practically
every minute of his time to relieving
the unbearable conditions in the agri-
cultural districts in the South. for
which he had no apology to make.
Much, he reminded the audience,
was being said about factionalism.

iect," he explained, "is to work for
that class which is the foundation OF
all prosperity. I am not trying to
get so many laws on the statute
books" he added. What is needed
Is to keep some of those iniquitous
laws off, Ito stop that darned dog,
he explained.
There was something wrong, he
explained, when the South, which
furnishes the cotton for all the New
England mills and supplies the mar.
kets Of Europe as we'll, and then has
no money. It was this condition that
first led him to serious considera-
ton Of the banking laws, and which
resulted in his writing an amendment
to section IS, which allowed farmers
to borrow so per cent. Of its value on
real estate, and that would compe
banks to accept agricultural product:
