York Times, relating to the shooting
of Sheriff Chain of Logan county bv
William Petry in Charleston abou,
three years ago. Mr.. Mcintosh says:
The facts are that Chain had become
surety on the bond of a negro held on
charge OF an offense in Logan county.
The negro did not appear for trial and
Chain, his surety, hal to pay. The
negro was connected with the United
Mine Workers of America. Learning
that the negro was in Charleston
Chain procured a court process and
went to Charleston for him. AT
charleston he traced the negro 10 the
headquarters of the United Mine Work
erS.
The court process was placed in the
hands OF the sheriff of Kanawha county,
who had jurisdiction, and together
they went to the mine workers head
quarters to arrest him.
While on that mission, Petry shot
Chain, giving no warning of his in
tended act. Chain was not armed. so
that the statement made by the CORE
spondent is entirely untrue. Chain
was not sheriff of Logan county at that
time, but was deputy county clerk.
He accompanied the sheriff of Kanaw-
ha county TO the union Headquarters
solely for the purpose of identifying
the fugitive.
Colonel Jackson Arnold, in command
OF the State police force on duty in
Charles ToYn, was called away TO an
other section of the State last week.
and while he was absent his men man
aged to stir up a considerable amount
OF trouble. Lieutenant Mack Lilly was
left In charge, and he himself got in
a mlX-up with the Charles Town po-
lice and was landed in Jail Chief of
Police James Smith was dispensing a
crowd Saturday night that had gather
ed because of some trifing distur-
Dances on the street. Lieutenant Lillv.
who was not in uniform, resisted the
oficer and cusSed him out, and being
unknown to Chief Smith, was thereup
on arrested and hustled to Jail. There
was more or less of misunderstanding
concerning the matter, and few
Charles Town folks got very much ex-
cited, apparently. The trouble was A.
nally smoothed out and town and State
offcers got together and forgot the un-
pleasantness.
The State police have not been pop-
ular with certain class because of
tneir activity against bootleggers and
moonshiners, who anticipated rich
harvest during the trials. There are
suspicious, on the other hand, that all
the moonshine that has been seized
mas not been emptied in the cutters.

High School Carries.

The proposition authorizing the board
OF education OF Shepherdstown district
to establish a high school in Shep.
herdstown carried by a large majority
last Saturday, the vote standing 23o
Tor and 81 against. In Shepherdstown
the vote stood 2l0 for, 43 against: at
Moler's, l3 for, p against; at Duff
fields, 16 for, 26 against We think
that the voters have acted very sensi-
bly, in approving this project, for there
is no other reasonable way Of meeting
the problem under the State law and
the rulings of the State Board of Ed.
ucation. The women of this place evinc-
ed an active interest in the election.
and as usual were on the right side
An important question now to be
considered will be the acquiring of a
high school building This is mat
ter that will require careful consider
atinon. So far as We can see. there
is no need of anv great expenditure
for this purpose, for even il we have
to erect new building for the high
school it does not need TO be a large
one, for at the most it would not have
to house more than three or four
grades. Our board of education, we
are confident, will be careful in this
matter, and We suggest that it and the
people OF the community cooperate
harmonlously in working out the prob
lem.

We Lose a Good Man.

John r. Hill. who has been a loyal
and efficient employee of the Register
Office for the past five years, has sew
cred his connection with this Office and
gone to Morgantown. w. Va, where he
has secured position with the Daily
New Dominion. We are sorry to have
him 90, for he is not only an expert
linotype operator and a good machinist,
but his faithful service and unfailing
fairness and industry had gained for
him the regard and good will of his en-
ployer and his associates. His desire
far a larger field Of usefulness and
greater opportunity caused him 10
strike out for himself and cut loose
home ties, so we parted company with
mutual reluctance. We hope that Mr.
Hill may prosper in his new location.

Ku Klux Klan For Shepherdstown

DR.. J. II. Hawkins, organizer Of the
Ku Klux Klan, delivered an address
in the fremen's hall last Friday night
in which he set forth the principles OF
the order. No patriotic person should
find fault with the things for which the
order stands, as he outlined them-the
sanctity of the home and the protec-
tion of womanhood; the preservation
OF white supremacy; the observance
OF law; the separation Of church and
state; and the betterment Of our
schools. DR.. Hawkins stated that the
organization now has a million men,
bers, including cabinet members, Gov
ernors Of States, and other prominent
pand influential citizens, and that il is
growing in every section Of our country
north, south, east and west. Ii is un.
derstood that chapter Of the Klar

Doc PaytOn Swings OFF.

Doc Payton, the negro or Hindu who
was convicted Of assaulting little
girl in Martinsburg last July, and who
escaped capture until a couple of
months ago, was hanged in the State
Penitentiary at Moundsville last Thurs
day afternoon. He was led to the
scaffold at $50, dropped through the
trap at 5.34, and nine minutes later
was pronounced dead. Payton main
tanned his innocence to the last, but
before his execution he requested that
no questions be asked him on the
scaffold. This was construed by some as
a fear that he might break down and
confess. The man showed little or no
emotion as the time for his execution
drew near, and went to the scaffold
without faltering. Payton had told
Chaplain Grant much about his pre-
vious life. He said he had been in all
of the principal countries Of the world,
performing in sideshow act with a
circus. His relatives had tried hard to
get reprieve for him, but Governor
Morgan refused to interfere.

To Cleveland, Where He Ties Up
Traffic While Cleaning Salesroom

Joseph Donovan OF Boston, enjoys
the distinction Of having attracted
probably the largest and most distin-
guished crowd that ever gathered to
watch a man wield a broom. 1t was so
great, in fact that It tied up traffic
IN the city OF Cleveland Tor an hour.
In sweeping the Cleveland salesroom
floor, Mr.. Donovan, who is the Stude-
baker dealer in Boaton, carried out one
OF the novel stipulations of sales
contest which his forces had arranged
with the Studebaker sales organiza-
ton in Cleveland. It was agreed that
the loser journey to the city OF the
winner armed with a mammoth broom
and that he rEt only perform the
sweeping act but also play the role Of
host a. dinner to the victorious sales
forces.
Among the prominent Clevelanders

quarters in South Bend those in atten-
dance included F. s. Fish, chairman of
the board; A. r. Erskine. president.
and II. A. Biggs, vice. president, who
acted as POSTMASTER.
Mr.. Donovan's arrival in Cleveland
was marked by dramatic incidents. AS
he stepped off the Pullman, with a
great broom over his shoulder. he was
given a welcome by the Studebaker
band and members of the Cleveland
retail organization. Headed by the
band, the car carrying the winners
and losers of the contest, and 20 other
Studebaker cars with appropriate ban
ners as well as brooms front and

dinner. Speakers included Mayor
Kohler, and Messrs. Fish, Erskine,
Goff. Murnane and Donovan. In his
talk. Mr.. Golf emphasized the fact
that while the public and the bankers
of the country are recognizing the mo-
tor car as the method OF modern
transportation, and that it is making
for a better citizenship by improving
the public health through getting peo-
pie out in the open. The Cleveland
organization presented silver loving
cup to Mr.. Murnane and Mr.. Donovan.
Mr.. Biggs, in behalf of the Studebaker
Corporation. presented Mr.. Murnane
with a beautiful watch in recognition
of the months record.
Promptly at o'clock the following
morning the parade formed in front
Of the Cleveland hotel. Headed by
the band, and with 80 cars in line, the
procession made for the Studebal1er
salesroom, where Mr.. Donovan pulled
OFF his coat, rolled up his sleeves and
gave the floor real sweeping.

known launch which was trying to
get through without lights. They were
ordered to stop, but disregarding the
order the launch was steered in anoth-
er direction and put under full speed.
Officer Stearns whipped out his re-
volver and fired two shots across the
fleeing launchs bow, but she kept go
ing. Shortly after he fired five other
shots with the same result.
BY being able to go in shallow
water the fleeing boat put the gov
eminent cutter to a disadvantage and,
finally, after the chase led out into the
gulf, the booze runner outdistanced
the Penrose.
The cutter is not provided with a
mounted gun, for if she was there
might have been a different story to
tell Whatever the unknown craft had
as cargo, it was evidently contraband.
The other party in charge of Chief
Cobb encountered several launches
during the night but no liquor was
found. although they spent the entire
night at and around East Pass. They
got back TO Pensacola at 10 o'clock
yesterday morning.
