BLUE JOCKEYS AND
 NEGROES IN CLASH
Six Killed and Several Wounded fin Race Riot at Charleston
 Sunday Morning.

Charleston, g.. C., May 1.-Two bluejackets and four negroes wore re- rcrted to haze been killed and a large number wounded, eight severely, in race rict ,vEich broke out here late last nigh. and continued un;:l early Sunday Co-ning.
 The trout.e was said to have grown out of the snco.ing of sailor by a negro in downtown poolroom. In short while bluejackets from the naval training stattpr here and civilians joined in tie fight It was Sc 5eral hours before the rioting coull be quelled.
 For time the rioters practically had possession of the downtown busi- ness streets. A negro barber shop on King street was almost wrecked ana in several instances cars were stopp- ed by the trolley poles being down and negroes on the cars were beaten up. One negro was shot down as he was snatched off car.
 In Beaufain street two shooting galleries were raided by bluejackets, according to the police reports, and the small caliber repeating rifles were brought into play Police were almost powerless and white civilians, except those joining the sailors, scurred to safety.
 Bluejackets were rushed from the naval training camp to stop the riot and were armed at the police station with riot guns. They were soon join ed by the marines. In the meantime half dozen naval officers, running the risk of death from stray shots, had forced number of rioting sailors into 1 line and were establishing order at various places.
 All persons were ordered off the
 streets and under orders from Rear
 Admiral Benjamin c. Bryant, com mandant of the navy yard, the ma rines and bluejackets started to round Iup all other bluejackets and rush
 them to the navy yard and to the l training camp in motor trucks.

eu out into homes where nothing but trees stood before. All of them are occupied with an insistant demand for more and still more.
 Radiating in all directions through- out the county is system of well graded highways and hard surfaced bikes where so many streaks of red and black mud and sand radiated more or less. This is the beginning of the era of genuine road construction. A perfect network of gravel highways have been laid out One system alone,
 which is to be under course of con- struction this summer, will cost around one million dollars. Numerous others have been organized and will be built. The opponent of good roads is either not here now or is in such minority that he remains silent. Where he kicked on little three mill tax for road improvement we do not now bat an eye when we vote bonds for million dollar improvement. The farms throughout the county have been methods have been improv- ed and land values have advanced. Scores of our farmers have joined the income tax gang and ride in modern automobiles. When ten years ago our real estate men were going to other states to find so called suckers" to buy our lands, they are today selling some of this same land back to native farmers at prices ranging from $15O on down, selling these lands to people who grew up on the sand and have the money to pay, and if not, there is plenty of farm credit anxious to make the loan.
 It would be fitting to round of. this glance backward in referring to banks and finances generally. Ten years ago the combined deposits at this sea- son of the year would not exceed, we are sure, more than two or three hun dred thousand dollars, if 1t would ap- proach that figure. Money was scarce and hard to get and credits were bad. The old timer remembers how bad Marketing facilitines were far from good. We have 1t officially today that the combined bank deposits of the county will exceed million dollars in spite of the fact that the people of the county have invested in Liberty Bonds and War Saving Stamps total of between one-half and one million dollars. Many hundreds of thousands of these securities are in the hands of the people. Marketing facilities are better and improving. Prices are at the high tide. Wages are good and people are living better.
 With this foundation laid what should we be able to accomplish with in the next ten. the next five years? Should we not be able to go forward at much greater rate than was pos sible for us to have done during the last decade? The big war is over. We are at the doors of the greatest era civic. agricultural, religious and educational development in the history of the world. We have learned things; we should have gotten our bearings. The pioneering is over; 1t Is up to us to take up the task and drive on to a great and still greater future,

new POLICE Are
n OF APPROVED
BY CITY COUNCIL
Another Case of Commission.
ers Refusing to Grant Po-
lice Department Head a
Vote of Confidence.

The city council committee of the
whole yesterday declined to formally
approve a list of 81 new policemen
appointed by Police Commissioner
Ringer since the court house riot.
September %.
Il would like to have the council
approve this 1ist," said the police
commissioner.
II think that this list should be
gone over with fine-tooth comb, /"
recommended Acting Mayor Ure,
whereupon the commissioner voted
with the acting mayor, rather than
with the police commissioner.
1t was manifestly another case Of
the council refusing to grant Mr..
Ringer a vote of confidence. The
police commissioner conceded that
Maj. c. M. White, who is acting as
police inspector, temporarily, stated
that some of these new policemen
should be weeded out.
Commissioners Not Satisfied.
Mr.. Ringer added that his depart
ment had investigated each applicant
for the police department before the
appointment was made, but that ex-
PLANTATION did not satisfy the COM
missioners, who are going to make
some Investigations on their own
account. The list submitted by Mr..
Ringer was placed on file and the
men will merely serve as policemen
on six months probation. The
point was that the commissioners
were not willing at this time to ap-
prove the appointments of Mr..
Ringer.
Mr.. Ringer felt the situation
keenly. for of late he has been re-
ceiving the support of a working
majority of the council in at least
some propositions. A succession
of overt and indiscreet acts by po-
licemen, has caused the commission
ers to act. with more caution in
matters pertaining to the police de-
partment.

referred over for consideration yes

CLOSE TAB ON BOOZE LEAKS
Three and Half Million Gallons Are
Stored in Indiana Bonded Ware
houses.

Indianapolis. Ind, Aug. 16.-The
large amount of whisky stored in the
four government warehouses in In
diana, offers a problem for Peter J.
Kruger, collector OF internal revenue,
who is in charge of the consolidated
districts of the state.
Government bonded warehouses
contain approximately 100000 gall
Ions of whisky, which it is impossible
to transport by common carrier ex-
cept for medicinal, sacramento or ex-
perimental purposes in compliance
with the national prohibition law. and
as a consequence il cannot be shipped
to other states where possession of
liquor is illegal, nor can it be sold in
Indiana, according to the collector.
AS a result the government is COM
PEELED to keep watchmen at the ware
houses day and night and the distill-
ers also are compelled to help police
the warehouse and maintain a force of
inspectors to watch for leakage. as the
owner must pay the regular beverage
tax of s6.40 a gallon for all that is
lost The lost liquor is technically
considered to have been consumed.
