1t was here that he introduced the
name Of Colonel A. A. Richardson also.
Mr.. McLaurin said that Mr.. Coopcrs
entrance into the 1916 campaign came
near causing the defeat of Governor
Manning and that it was the main
cause Of much Of the present cXecn>
tiVc's unpopularity. He also stated that
Mr.. Coopcr'S entrance into the race
prompted Governor Manning to give

Port Former Governor for any Oiiice.

Mccormick, July 5.--Robcrt A..
Cooper, candidate for governor at the
State campaign meeting here today
stamped as "unqualifedly false" any
assertion or suggestion that he would
support Cole il. Bleasc for any Of
ilcc. The statement of Mir Cooper
followed the speech Of John j. Nc

have always understood that Mr..
Coopcr's campaign manager had some
kind of an understanding With Colonel
Alfred Richardson about how the

During his reply Mr. Cooper ask
ed Colonel Richardson, candidate
Tor railroad commissioner, who was
present "if any person representing
me stated TO him on my authority,
that the Cooper vote would go to
B'casc in second primary between
Blcasc and Manning"
II am sorry to be drawn into the
controversy about any race except
my own" replied Mr. Richardson,
"and | have nothing to do with any
race except my own, since my name
IL mentioned here Is what happened:
Mr.. r. f. Otis told me that, in his
opinion, II there were second pri-
mary between Blease and Manning,
he believed the majority of the Coo

not tell me that Mr.. Cooper authoriz-

the United States patent office In the
case Of Anheuser-Busch Brewing as
ISOLATION VS.. Fred Miller Brewing

In February. 1917. Fred Miller

Office for registration of its trade mark

opposed the application on the ground
that the trade mark 'Vivo" was an in
reference with their trade mark
'.Bevo'' used in connection with a
similar beverage. The Fred Miller
Brewing company proved to the salts
faction Of the United States patent
office that it had used the said. trade
mark since the year 1905, while the
Anheuser-Busch Brewing association
did not commence the use of its trade
mark "Bevo'' until h yea 1908, and
the United States patent Office has now
decided that in view Of the prior use
by the Fred Miller Brewing, company

else that the parole board be either

has exercised the utmost p%recaution

II doubt the wisdom of having two

between that one board should be
able to handle all the business. Inas-
much al a pardon cannot be granted
