THAT NEWBERRY MEETING
John Henry chappclI Denounces Mis-.
representation.

TO the Editor of the News and cour-
icT:
The report OF your correspondent OF
the campaign mcotinw held ai New
berry on the 9TH. which appeared In
your issue of the Sth. was so unfair
to mo that ! feel II is right that
should make reply thereto. and hope
y0u will have enough fairness To pub
lish this statement. ] find that q num-
bcr of papers who did not have cor
rrsponG' n. at the meeting have ac-
ccptcd and published as true some Of
your correspondents statements. !
trust these ,apcrs viii also do me the
justice to publish this statement.
Your correspondent made the fol-
lowing statements: lst) John Henry
Chappcll. ardent supporter of Cole l..
Bleasc, attempted to get at Pollock
with pocket knife after Pollock had
concluded his speech and was getting
a breath of fresh air in the rear door
of the court room" t2nd) Mr.. Chap
pell came back through the rear room
with a large knife in his hand and
when he came on Pollock. began to
give vent to his wrath by cursing."
] desire to state that ! did not at
tempt to cut Nr. Pollock: did not
draw a knife: | did not even have
knife with me on the day OF the meet
ing.
The Herald and News OF this city,
in reporting the meeting did not make
the statement that ! drew or had n
knife. The Observer. also OF this city.
a paper which does not support Mr..
Blease. copied the report as sent in by
your correspondent. But this paper
did me the justice to publish in con-
nection Herewith this statement:
Chief Rodelsperger also requests us
to state that at no time did he see
any knife
Your correspondent was not present
when Mr.. Pollock and I were together.
so his statements as to my having had
q knife must have been reported to
him by some other person. had no
desire TO injure Mr.. Pollock. I did
not need knife on the occasion. Mr..
Pollock offered to speak TO me and TO
shake hands with me. I told him in
plain language that I did not care to
do so. John Henry Cha nneIj

,bev will trouble themselves to take
the proper steps.
There Is nothing difficult or mysteri-
ous about the steps TO be taken In
kdeed the common impression TO the
Contrary, voters who have not en-
roIl.d at all, may still be enrolled on
a showing to the judge that they
had good reason for not being enrolled.
The enrolled voter who can make
a, affidavit that he did not know or
understand the requirements Of en-
rnllment until after the books were
closed. or that he did not know how or
where to find the books, may be en-
rolled in the discretion Of the circuit
Judge.
IN right away. 1t should he looked IF
ter today, and 10y all means before
n,yt Saturday night: but 1t is not un-
derstood that even next Saturday will
he the final limit. The judge en- or
| der the addition Of names even on the
Jay of the election ii H. secs proper 10
| do so.
For the benefit of all, We are
throwing out this suggestion. Let any
white man in the county who IS cligi-
| hI, TO enrolment on Il Democratic
club: but who has failed or neglected
TO have himself enrolled. at once APP
Phi, to Chairman Marion for advice
lard instruction. and If the would-be
rs.er does not put the matter off too
Hong the probability is that Chairman
Marion will be able to Arrange Tor his
enrolment.
II is very well for every voter to un-
dcrstand, however. tina, he must him
s.If move in the matter. and not de-
ncnd on soinv one else. Chairman
Marion can help him il he tries to help
himself: but not otherwise.

Gen. Foch had proved his wOrthi-

He is fully great enough for the high

So cncoura ging has been MI tho war
news of tho past few weeks that there
is nothing at all surprising in the
growing spirit Of optimism among tho
people. There is no denying the fact
that the situation Is indeed fine COM
pared with.what wc had to 20 through
previous TO July Is. or moro properly
since July Is when Gen. Foch began
to convert tho German drive Of July II
into an Allied drive. Things indeed
look good now. During the past three
weeks the Allies have taken close to
900 square miles Of territory. and not
far from 1000 prisoners. Tho Ger
man lines Of communication have been
cut off down toward Montdidier and
the threats against Paris and against
the channel ports have been removed
for the present. While there is very
good reason to hopc that the Germans
are now on the run at least back to
the Hindcnburg line. let us not deceive
ourselves thinking that the war is
over. II is not over. not by good
deal The Germans have lots Of fight
i'm them yet. and il is going to take lots
Of hard work to drive them beyond
