RETURNS MURDER CHARGE.
w. A. Blackwell Claims Self-Defense.
B. B. Glover Killed.
turers Record

Spartanburg, July 2S--W. A.
Blackwell was held by the coroner's
Jury this morning for the murder of
B. B. Glover last night. The shooting
occurred at the home Of Mr.. Glover
on the Howard Gap road, Just out Of
the city limits. From the testimony
of Mrs. Glover, who was the only
eyewitness examined by the coroner's
jury, Blackwell, who married Mr..
Glover's sister, went to the house yes
terday between IL and l o'clock in
drunken condition and size put him
to bed. Last night at bed time she
went to bed herself in another room.
Her husband was away. After she
had been asleep for some time she
heard her husband at the door and
got up and let him in, telling him
that Blackwell was in the other room
and not to bother him as he was
drunk.
Mrs. Glover testified that her hus-
band came in and started into the
room where Blackwell was in bed
and as he got to the door she saw
Blackwell get up and flash pistol.
She saw the pistol and told him not
to shoot but just then he shot, and
her husband fell in the doorway.
She went for physician.
Blackwell claims that he was at
tackled by Mr.. Glover and shot in
self-defense.
Mr.. Glover was shot in the leg
when officers of the law raided
distillery in the lower part of the
county two years ago, and as con-
sequence one leg was about two inch
es shorter than the other. When the
officers searched the house last night
they found a small distillery such as
is sometimes used on the cookstove,
they said.

APPEAL BY JEFFORDS.
Solicitor Served With Papers by
Attorney.

Columbia, July 22.-Solicitor A.
F. Spigner has been served with pa
pers in the appeal of Frank NJ. JET
ford, the Columbia young man under
sentence of death for the murder of
J. G.. Annette. Ira y. Harrison, who
was convicted along with Jeffords
and sentenced to die in the electric
chair, has also given notice of inten-
tion to appeal from the verdict of
the lower court. Harrison has ten
more days in which to perfect his
appeal, under a new order by Circuit
Judge W. H. Townsend.
There are eleven exceptions cited
by Jeffords's attorney as reasons for
the appeal for new trial. The pc
tition sets out that the motion for
separate trial for Jeffords was over
ruled. Certain testimony, the petit
tion says, was incompetent; that the
public mind was infamed against
Jeffords, as he was put to trial with
Harrison very short time after the
alleged murder had been committed,
was also alleged.

one of the officers at last, for his
patience had given out. you'll get

The youthful rider of the stub
born horse looked at his officer des-
pairingly.

IN CIVILIZED AMERICA,

But Not Below Mason and Dixon

The following extract is from the
Associated Press account of the mine
riots at Herrin, Illinois:
stOut in a road near the mine, six
men, tied together and all wounded
by bullets and blows, lay in a scorch-
ing sun, while hundreds Of men and
women laughed at their pleas for
water.
Zone of the men, his face bloody
and his shoulder shot away, appar-
emily was within a few minutes OF
death.
Please boys, give me drink he
moaned.
"A laugh from the hundreds of
spectators was the only reply.
sThe correspondent rushed to a
house for water and when he return
ed he was faced by sword and
quickly drawn pistols and told to
keep away.
ssWhen the man begged again for
water, for Gods sake young Wo-
man with a baby in her arms placed
her foot on the mangled body and
said:
"sI'll see you in hell before you get
any water
s'The men apparently had been
dragged down rock road behind an
automobile. Their clothes were torn
and pieces of gravel were inbedded
in their mangled flesh.
"A miner told the Associated Press
correspondent that he had seen Il
bodies thrown into pond with rocks
around their necks, Thursday. About
20 imported miners are missing.

Republicans Seek
Big Registration

WASHINGTON, July 23.-When it
"leaked out here day or two ago
that southern Republicans were ac-
lively on the move to pile up rec
ord-breaking registration this year
in the November elections, those
who are active to see that the great
banner of Democracy shall not be
soiled in the south, got next to the
situation. The result is that few
of the Democratic sleuths have got
ten into the inner realms of the
G. o. P. wigwam and the "cat is
now out of the bag" Here is the real
reason for this eleventh hour activ-
ity on the part of the southern Re-
publicans, as reported to Washing
ton.
The rule adopted just after the last
Republican National Convention by
the National COMMITTEE allotted but
one delegate to each congressional
district hereafter. That district
must not only show an organization
but must also register not less than
$500 votes for Republican elector
or for a Repu blican candidate for
congress in the preceding election.
No district will be entitled to an
additional delegate unless it cast at
least 10000 votes in the last preced-
ing election or actually elected
Republican representative. Under
this new plan ten southern states
that sent 167 delegates to the No.
tional convention of 1920 will send
but IA to the one to be held in
1924, unless they very much acceler-
ate their movements in the south
and make better showing hereafter
than they have previously done. 1t
is noticeable that South Carolina,
where there seems to besa revival of
the policy of building up white
Republican party, will have but four
delegates instead of II, clear loss
of seven delegates. This is where
Joe Tolbert, the titular "boss" of
the South Carolina G. o. P. will get
the axe and lose power and infu-
ence hereafter in not being able to
parade a long string of delegates
to the National conventions, unless
he can make better showing this
fall.
By the same token Mississippi
would have four delegates instead
of 12, Georgia would lose dele
gates. It is understood that these
reductions are favored by President
Harding, who is anxious to attract
men of standing and substance to the
Republican party of the south.
The new plan is a compromise,
but undoubtedly it looks toward a
"white mans party" The Republican
danger is that in trying to concili-
ate the Republican whites it may
stir resentment among the northern
negroes.
It will thus be seen that the mig
ger in the wood pile has politically
speaking, been smoked out of his
abode, but the result is enough to
warn the white Democratic voters in
the south of the peril that confronts
them unless they take advantage of
the opportunities. they are given to
prepare for the ballot. Men and wo-
men alike should enroll for their |
primaries and see that they secure |
their registration certificates for the
general elections.
