Circuit spoke here today at the
court house at II o'clock. The audi

building. Half a dozen ladies' were
present. The county chairman, j. H
Moore being one of candidates fol-
solicitor the meeting was presided
over by Hon. VIM. P. Greene.
The meeting was without special
terest all the candidates passing
compliments and throwing bouquets
at each other and save for the scoring
by Mr.. Bradley Of Congressman
Dominick's record during the trou-
bulous days of 1917 just prior to en-
try of this country into the war and
during the months following, no at
tacks were made by the speakers on
the other candidates.
w. W. Bradley of this city and
candidate for congress was the first
speaker this morning anc made a pa
triotic speech declaring himself in
favor of the Federal Reserve Act,
the Farm Loan Act, and OF Wilson's
policies. Mr.. Bradley then discussed
the war and scored the record OF
Congressman Dominick for having
voted against the entry Of this coun-
try into war, the draft act, the press
censorship bill, and declared that if
it were possible Mr.. Dominick would
like to change that record. In con-
clusion Mr.. Bradley stated tnat DOM
mick was going about the district
saying that he was already sure of
reelection but that his cocksureness
was only the whistle of a scared boy
as he passed the country graveyard
and was expressed to keep his cour-
age up.
Fred H. Dominick, congressman
from this district seeking reelection
followed Mr.. Bradley and stated that
when he was elected four years ago
that the only promise he made was
to see that every Citizen o. his dis
trict was treated alike and that no
favoritism would be shown any in
dividual or set of individuals.
Mr.. Dominick stated that he stood
on his record and explained the pre-
vailing circumstances when ne cast
his vote on the important measures
cited by Mr.. Bradley. The congress
man stated that he was scored two
years ago on the same coun:s as Mr..
Bradley was fighting him on today
and that the people of the Third Dis
trict placed the stamp of their ap-
proval on his record by returning
him to congress with a gooc majority.

the veterans of the world war a bo-
nus of soms $500 or $500 and was

for able bodied veterans. In conclu-
sion Mr.. Dominick asked the voters
Of Abbeville county to give Bradley
some votes as he did not want Wide
: to feel too badly after the election.
| Candidates For Solicitor
The candidates for solicitor fol-
owed and Mr.. T. Frank McCord, m
attorney Of Greenwood was the
first Of the three speakers. Mr.. Nc
Cord said that he felt much at home
in Abbeville County as he was born
and reared two miles from Hodges
Just over the Abbeville line. Mr.
McCord made good speech and
outlined carefully and impressively
the qualifications necessary to in
sure a good solicitor. He. leaves
everything in the hands Of the citi-
zens to decide whether they think he
is the logical man for the place.
Senator Howard Moore Of Able
vile was the second speaker and
gave a resume Of the stewardship as
member of the legislature both in
he capacity Of representative and of
senator during the past ten years
he has served the people Of his
county. Senator Moore also made j
good speech and said the only prom
ise he ever made.in a political cam
paign and the only one, he ever ex-
pected to make is that he will do his
duty as his conscience guides him
and with all the ability with which
he is endowed. ID.
Solicitor H. S. Blackwell of Lau-
rens was the last >. speaker. Mr..
Blackwell stated that, he a native of
Abbeville county and that he has
brothers, a sister and a father still
citizens Of old Abbeville. The Soil
citor was very plain in his remarks
regarding the failure of the people
of this county to render information
regarding the so far unknown par
ties who were responsible for' the
horrible death of a negro, Mark
Smith, whose body was hacked to
pieces and thrown in the Savannah
river last summer. Mr.. Blackwell
stated that he had been unable to
bring any indictments in this. case
solely from a lack Of information as
to who committed the deed. He also
stated that there had been nine
homicides in Abbeville County since
January /, 1920. He stated that the
record of his services as solicitor is
immutable and will show that in 80
per cent, of the cases he has tried
in the Third Judicial District he has
secured convictions. Mr. Blackwell
also stated that this was the only
circuit in the state where the solici-
tor was being opposed for his Sec
ond term and that he thought if a
solicitor had made satisfactory re-
cord in his first term that the peo-
pie should reelect him to Office.

CONSTABLE GETS
40-GAL[0N STILL
FORTY GALLON COPPER STILL
IS CAPTURED BY CONSTABLE
HUcKABEE IN JEFF: BOW
MANS PASTURE. CONSTABLE
INFORMED OF LOCATION BY
EIGHT YEAR OLD JOE
TURNER.

Constable J. NJ. Huckabee OF
Lowndesville brought in to the
Sheriff this morning 40-gallon cop
per still which he captured yesser.
day afternoon on a small branch in
Jeff Bowman's pasture near Lown-
desville. None of the operators OF
the illicit contraption were found
about the still but two barrels Of
mash ready to run were destroyed
The worm was not found with the
boiler and it is presumed that the
moonshiners removed that part of
the distillery after making the run
of the night.
Little Joe Turner, Jr., lad of
eight, who father lives on Martin
Boles place deserves the reward for
the capture of this still. Yesterday
afternoon Joe appeared in Nance
and Mann's store at Lowndesville
and asked thee rowd in the store if
any of them was the sheriff. Joe ad-
dressed the question directly to a
man who was delivering truck
load of Coca-cola. The "dope" man
promptly denied any such honor.
Constable J. M. Huckabee happened
to be in the store and told the little
man that he was the sheriff and
asked him what his trouble was. Joe
replied that he could tell him where
there was still if he wanted it.
Mr.. Huckabee told Joe that was his
business 50 the lad stated that there
was big still in Jeff Bowman's
pasture.
Mr.. Huckabee asked Joe if he
was game enough to 60 with him
after it. The boy said he was. So the
constable and Joe got in an .automo-
bile and started for Bowman's pas
ture.
MIR. Huckabee said when Joe told
him where the still was that the ac-
tion of the crowd in Nance and
Mann's store was similar to the ac-
tion of a covey of partridges when
they are flushed. The telephone be-
gan to ring and several of the Gus
toners left off buying goods and
disappeared and most of the others
present suddenly remembered ur-
gent business elsewhere. The con-
stable states that he knew then
there would be no one about the
still when he got there.
AS he predicted when he and Joe
arrived at the location of the still
on a small branch in the pasture
everything was as silent as death.
But the still was there hid in the
brushwood with two barrels of mash
just right for run that night. Mr..
Huckabee says he never saw a
gamer boy than Joe Turner. While
the constable was busy overturning
the still, Joe was emptying mash in
the branch. After the still was dis
mantled the lad and the constable
lugged the heavy copper boiler half
a mile to where the automobile had
been left.
There is a reward Of ten dollars
offered by the department of in
ternal revenue for. anyone who in
forms revenue officer of the cor
rect location of a still and an addi-
tional reward of $40 for each con-
viction resulting from such infor-
nation. In this case, though, Mr..
Huckabee is a state constable and
not a revenue officer so the govern
ment will not pay any reward to
Joe. Mr.. Huckabee says he is going
to see that Joe gets ten dollars if
he has to pay it out of his pocket.

pioneers. Always a public spirited
man, he had been identified with every

He contributed generously toward
the founding fund of Washington

death. For a quarter of a century he
was a godly elder. During all the years
Of his pilgrimage he was never sick.
