KILLS
WARRENVILLE MAN

Aiken, July so. Cary +. Hatcher
well known citizen of Warrenville
and prominent figure in fraternal
o'ganizations in this state, was shot
by Policeman w. ID. Gregory at 10
O'Clock this morning and instantly,
Lllled as the result of an alteration
between the two concerning politics.
1T appears from the testimony at
the coroner's inquest that Hatche,
had left his home, which IS about one
mile from Warrenville, to deliver
milk at the home of j. NJ. Polatty and
was returning to the postoffice wher,
Gregory approached him. Hatcher at
the time was sitting on the steps of
the store next to the postoffice, whit
ting stick with his pocket knife.
Gregory approached Hatcher and
the two passed words which were not
heard by small group of witnesses
Hatcher threw the knife he was using
in the road. Gregory picked the knife
up and, witnesses testified, cursed
Hatcher with a vile cpithet whcreupon
Hatcher slapped his face after saw.
ing, "Throw your pistol away and
fight me fair"
After slapp;ng Gregory's face
Hatcher turned his back and had
taken six or seven steps when the
fatal shot was fired. The bali entered
the center Of the back, just below the
left shoulder blade and passing
through the body embedded itself in
the steps of the store. Death was al
most instantaneous. Gregory used d
.38 caliber revolver and fred only
once.
Hatcher was in his 33rd ycar and
was born and reared within three
miles of the place where the homicide
occurred. He was man of large
family connections. He was = proml-
nent Mason and was connected with
several of the leading lodges of the
county and state. He was member
of the Star lodge, A. F. NJ, of Gran.
iteville, Kadoshlyh chapter and the
Aiken council of Aiken, the Columbia
commandery No. 2, Knights Templars,
and Omar temple, Charleston.
Hatcher stool well in,the. commun,,
ity in which he lived. Az the time Of
his death he was farming near War
renville and also occupied in deep well
boring.
Gregory was employed by The War
renville Manufacturing company as n
mill constable. He had been in the
employ of the company for about
eight years.
The evidence which was given AT
the inquest, which was held shortly
after the shooting, was to tie effect
that the dispute arose over the clb
roll books being kept in the mill Of
flee. Hatcher, it is testified, said the
election of delegates from Warren
Vile district was not exactly accord
in" to law and Gregory replied with
culscS to the opposite.
Gregory, who, it was testified, was
under the influence of liquor ut the
time of the shooting, was held by the
coroner's jury for the killing. Ar
rested by Deputy Sheriff Harry Rob
inson he was rushed to the Aiken
county Jail Immediately after the
shooting since feeling over the kill
ing was running high. Gregory has
employed counsel. He does not deny
firing the fatal shot.
Funeral services will be held at
Graniteville on Monday afternoon at
$3.50 o'clock. Mr.. Hatcher will b"
turied with full Masonic honors, an,!
intermerft will be made in the Glan-

AT MEETING TO BE HELD TOMORROW

from all parts of the country today

sider President Harding's plan for
settlement of the railway strike and
hopes are expressed that the men will

York Or the shops crafts policy COM

Washington, July 81 k-Chairman

On the strike situation.
Chicago, July 80 (By the Associat-
ed Press).-Peace terms already have
been agreed to in the countrywide
railway strike and formal ratification
has been assured through President
Harding's efforts, it was asserted to-
night by man in close official touch
with the situation.
All that now remains before the
strike, which has cost the workers
upwards of $40,OOO,OOO in wages,
passes into history, it was asserted,
was formal Endorsement by the rail-
way executives meeting in New York
and the strike leaders who will con-
vene in Chicago at the same hour.
"The acceptance of President Hard
ing's proposal was foregone conclu-
sion before T. Dewitt Cuyler issued
the call for the meeting of the rail
executives in New York and Bert M.
Jewell, head of the shopmen, sum-
moned a similar meeting of union
chiefs for the same date" this man
who has been in closest touch with
the entire situation declared. q

KHAN CHIEF
ISSUE in RACE

Oklahoma City, July 31.-Ku Klux
klan issue today still held the center
of attention in tomorrow's primary

j. c. Walton, mayor of Oklahoma
City, R. H. Wilson, state superintend-
ent of public instruction, Thos. H.
Owen, former justice of the supreme

Oklahoma City, July 3O.-Sweeping
into the front rank as an issue in
the Oklahoma primary, August l, the
Ku Klux Klan held the spotlight to-
day as the last guns were being fired
in the three cornered race for Demo-
cratic nomination for governor be-
tween j. Walton, mayor of Oklahoma
City; R. H. Wilson, state superin-
tendent of public instruction, and
Thomas H. Owens, former justice of
the state supreme court.
Copies of model ticket, published
in papers of the state purporting to
have been drawn by the khan, were
distributed today at the doors of
every Protestant church in Oklahoma
City at the conclusion of morning
services. Wilson's name headed the
list and political observers pointed
out that he may be expected to re-
ceive virtually the solid backing of
the Ku Klux Klan, which claims
membership in this state of approx
imately 100000. On the other hand!
he is almost certain to be opposed by
all elements not in sympathy with
the Ku Klux Klan.
Whether this anti-klan vote would
swing to Walton or Owen, observers
declined to prophesy.

BLEASE REJOICED
AT COX'S DEFEAT
BY Hugh w. Roberts.

Washington, July 3O.-A copy OF
the Cole L. Blease letter to Josph w
Tolbert, Republican boss of South
Carolina, dated Columbia, S. c., May
21, 1921, was received here today.
In the letter Blease stands by Tol.
bert in his ambition to secure control
of Republican parsonage in South
Carolina, rejoices at the victory OF
Warren G. Harding over James NJ
Cox, Democrat, and over the down
all of "idealism"
The copy in full follows:
Yours of May 16, asking for certain
information, received. I will answer
you frankly.
AS to G. G. Campbell of Columbia
S. c., the common remark 1 hear
around here, and have heard parties
make from other parts of the state is /:
"Some people in South Carolina may
want to go into new party, but they
are not going in as followers of
Campbell, who is Yankee; for you
remember that it was the Northern
renegades and scalawags who took
the niger and used him that gave us
all of our troubles from 1865 to 1876.''
Therefore, you will see that his lead
ership will not 60 far in South Caro-
lima.
AS to j. l.. McLaurin, presume it
is unnecessary for me to make any
remarks. His record in the senate OF
the United States, the Archibold let
ters, his attempted deal of 1912, his
complete breakdown as a candidate
for governor in this state recently,
and his general political record, are
as well known to the people in Wash
,ington as they are to the people Of
South Carolina. It would be absolute
sly impossible for him to build up any
following in this state OF any consld-
cradle proportions.

they gotta give you your transport

night we went and hid and then got
our boss to tell the super that he'd
fired us. So here we are with our
money and our tickets back home"
GLOW much of stake you got

among the great majority of these
drifters. They are evidently so philo-
sophical that they are able to resist
the lure of labor except when job
