rumors of panic, sickness and

The sea it roared,

Columbia Water & Light Company

Reservoir and Filtration, Plant
Clean, Jury Says.
fridays Daily Herald. J

Found guilty of the charge of fur
nishing impure water to the inhabi-
tants of the city of Columbia" by a
jury in county criminal court Thurs
day afternoon, a fine of $4,000 was
assessed against the Columbia Water
& Light Company, j. s. Robinson man
ager,
The trial of this case consumed a
greater part of Thursday, quite num-
Der Of witnesses testifying. The pros
ecution was conducted by County At
torney Hugh Todd Shelton and Attor-
ney General Looney B. White. The
prosecutions principal witness was
Dr. Robert Pillow, Jr., city health of
ticer. Mayor w. O. Cherry and DR..
VOORHEES, were also witnesses.
The burden of the states proof was
that through the negligence of the
Water & Light Company to keep the
city reservoir and the filtration plants
of the city clean, the health of the en-
tire population of Columbia was en-
dangered
The defense was ably conducted by
Fleming & Fleming, who brought out
the fact that owing to excessive rains
in the spring, and the fact that the
smoke stack of the pumping station
was blown down, the defendant com
pany had been unable to clean the fl
tration plant and reservoir.
A motion was entered for a new
trial. The present grand jury return
ed eight true bills against the Water
& Light Company.

the candidates who were being run"
against him, saying that in their coun-
ties he had also been endorsed. The
governor then went into an exhaus-
tive discussion OF the question of taxa
ton, declaring that the credit OF the
state required the remedy that had
been applied. He denied that there
would be any substantial increase in
the taxes of any honest taxpayer as
the result of the assessment Law.
On the stage with Governor Roberts
were several of the most distinguish
ed citizens of the county and num-
Der of x-Confederates. Among those
ON the stage were Congressman Lem.
uel P. Padgett, who was greeted with
applause; General Harvey H. Hannah,
who was also acclaimed by the crowd;
Col. William o. Witherspoon, Col. Jas.
C. VOORHEES,, Thomas H. Williams,
Tom Hall, of Culleoka, Charles v.
Hull, w J. Webster and NJ E. Allen,
and number of others.
Music was furnished by the Column
bia band at the front entrance and
also inside during the time that the
crowd was gathering. 1t was appar-
ent from the applause that the COVER
nor spoke to a sympathetic audience,
and it was plainly evident that the
great majority of the opponents of the
administration were absent from the
meeting although few dropped In to
look over the crowd and size things
up.
The governors speech followed the
lines Of those that have been deliver
ed at other places in the campaign.
Governor Roberts voice Is suffering
very much from the strain of three or
four speeches a day and he was husky.
ne also gave evidence OF the strain
under which he has labored, but he
drove home the points of his speech
with power and force. His explana-
ton of the tax law was clear and un-
questionably convinced many who
were In doubt on this point.

REPUBLICANS NOT 7'a
UNITED IN COUNTY
ONE FORMER LEADER HAS AN
NouNcED THAT HE WILL SUP
PORT GOV. ROBERTS.

All is not harmonious in the ranks
of the republicans of this county. One
well known republican, former party
leader, has announced that he will
not support the republican nominee
for governor this year, no matter who
he may be, but expects to do all that
he can for the reelection OF Gov. Rob
erts. While the democrats are hav-
ing their own troubles it is APPARENT
from this that the republicans are not
united either, but that some Of them
at least are going to vote in Novem-
Der for Governor Roberts.
