The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson, S.C.) 1914-1917, 1914-08-14

house. of which Fred II. Dominick was
one, submitted a report in which 1t
was recommended that the harmless
little bill be stricken out and have the
following bill substituted In lieu
thereof: - bill TO authorize and m
power the board Of directors of the
State Dispensary to gran. permits
the establishment and operation for
the sale Of beer ty retail Or otherwise
in cities OF over 10000 population,
etc" Section two of this monstrosity
reads as follows: THAT said permits
be continued and be of force for
term OF four years unless revoked for
cause by the state board Of directors
and the holders thereof shall have the
power to manufacture. bottle and sell,
by retail or otherwise now provided
by law"
This bill raised such Juror that
the members Of the free conference
committee felt II necessary to sign
the statement to be found on page 68O
and 6Sl Of the Houst Journal Of 1902
in which they stated that they signed
this free conference report. when
brought to us by Mr.. Dominick of said
committee, with the understanding
that 1t was to correct n defect or sup
ply an omission in law. which was
passed by the last session of the legis-
lature." This explanation was given
| by Messrs. Hough, Dougless. Tatum
and Butler. who all stated that they
did not read the report but took Mr..
Dominick's word for 1t. 1t appears
from the record that the offense was
SO grave that a concurrent resolution
was introduced which stated "that
the report OF the committee on free
conference on said bill was signed
der misapprehension, induced by
Misrepresentation made to them by
lone Of the conferces on the part of
| the house Of representatives" and
committee war appointed to- inquire
! into and investigate, t'It when tho
people Of Ncwbcrry got through with
Mr.. D0minick and left him out of the
next legislature 1t showed splainly
enough that they had investigated and
| inquired into the situation sufficient
for their purpose. Surely the people Of
this district do not want 1t to go on
! record in Washington that or account
Of the misrepresentation. of q repre-
sentative from this proud old state It
would be necessary to have a joint in
vestigat:on by the senate and house
of representatives.
The question for the people of this
district is, do VIC want Aiken with his
miEinterpretation OF democratic prin-
ciples to suit himself and the steel
corporation and his lacy Of harmony
with Wilson and Bryan?.Do we want
Dominick whose record SLOWS that he
was better friend IN 1902 to the cit
iznns OF Columbia and Charleston, who
wanted to manufacture ard. soil beer,
then to the people in. .NeWBnrry; coun-
ty and who when opportunity came to
help the mill people; voted !. against
them? Or do we want Evancy who has
made Of himself what hesis today.
! who has stood ut Tho froefrcnt of
progress in his community and coun-
; ty, who has studied the Issues before
tlleYAmericau .eongress AID Ihastered
them, and who Will s,beshy Tsprcsentn-
tive of the plain honest sreoi1le Of the
third congressional district II he liz
elected. t !,
The question must be answered hy
the voters of this district on the 25th
i day OF August and i. await their YER
dict in perfect confidence that the
peoples judgment will be in favor of
me and I pledge you in advance that
/ all OF my time and talents. shall be
give tho the advancement and true
representation of my reople.
