There are two newspapers in Newberry, both eminently respectable. The Herald and News is a supporter of former Governor 1 (lease and the Observer is an opponent of Governor lip ase. Kvery newspaper man in the state knows l>oth of these papers, and every newspaper man regards them as fair and honorable in their conduct toward all men. their speeches. loiter he ponded with the infractions ones refrain from disorders. He was" there to maintain order. Also -he was closer to Ills brother. Cole I*. Hleiisc, than they were and stood between his brother and the speakers if any false statements were to be uttered. A number of police were stationed about in the court room and Sheriff I Tease and his deputies kept within a f:-w yards of the speukc*rs throughout the meeting. Soon after the Chap[m-11 incident. Mayor Wright was sent for and rushed to the court room. The whale situation was fraught with |kis iibilities (Kiinful to contemplate and many of Newberry's best citizens wen Incensed over the incident. Referring to the same matter the Newberry Herald and News, friendly to Hlease, in its issue of last Friday. Iiad the following "We are surprised at the tenor of the re|?ort sent to the State and tinNews ami Courier by Mr. Irby Koon. It and the headlines in both papers do the |Mople of Newberry an injustice. We have attended many campaign meetings in Newberry for I lie |??st thirty years, and back in the days when there were lively times, iind a word- or an overt act might have resulted in bloodshed, hut there ivas nothing in the meeting on Wednesday to justify such headlines as 'Itov narrowly averted at Newberry." ind near bloodshed and all that sort. It wan one of the most decorous and i orderly political meetings we have . ever attended, especially when the tension was the least strong. "When Mr. Chappell asked and Mr. l oHock answered the ques^Wl as to the loyalty of Rle.ase and those who wouhl vote for him, Mr.Chapt>ell added that, "You are a coward to make utch statements elsewhere, and then not do it in Newberry." and started >ver the railing, but when Chairman lilease requested him to take his scat ; Mr. Chappell sat down. And when the >ther Pollock incident took place Mr. Chappell was going out of the court room and met Mr. Pollock, who *poke, calling Chapt>ell by name and xtemling his hand, and it was then that Chappell cursed him and refused to shake his hand. Mr. Eugene Blease requested Mr. Chappell to not have xny trouble and he again went on. Mr. Chappell says that he did hot have my knife in his hand or on his per- ' son." The Observer, opposed to Blea.se. in Its issue of the same day as the Hertld and News has the following account of the same incident: "County Chairman Blease in open ins: the meeting pleaded for a fair and ittentive hearing for all the candtiates. and introduced the speakers in the following order: For the short term. W. 1*. Pollock and Christie Ben?t: for the long term, Mr. Rice and N\ B. Dial. "The speeches were all confine.* to issues and to the record of cx-Gover- : nor Rlease, and were void of objectionable personalities. "The Observer representative attended the meeting, not for the purpose of reporting the speeches, for it would be impossible to publish all that was said, but for the purpose of noting anything that would be of unusual interest to the people. "This writer had a seat in the gallery in the front of the courthouse and could see all over the audience, hut could not see behind the judge's stand.

Koon's version of an incident at the Newberry meeting jus published in the Columbia State was as follows: Newberry. Aug. 7.?The tensest situation of the entire senatorial campaign developed in Newlnrrry today when the shedding of blood was narrowly averted. Throughout the meeting the atmosphere was surcharged with excitement which a single rash word or act would have caused to Hare up into bloody wrath. One of the strained circumstances got to such a pitch that John Henry Chappell. ardent supporter of Cole L. I dense, attempted to get at I'ollock with a IKM'ket knife after I'ollock had concluded his speech and was getting a breath of fresh air in the rear door of the court room. The Chapped incident had its inception near the conclusion of Mr. Pollock's speech. Mr. Chnp|>cll asked the speaker if he had said the sup |NJI lt'17* til * Ult* I t.

This did not .satisfy Mr. ('happcU, who said something about Mr. Pollock*being too much of a coward to say so iind started towards Mr. I'ollock, who made an effort to answer, but only got so far as to say, "Now look here, my friends." when he was admonished that his time was up. Sheriff Cannon (J. Please and others forced Mr. Chapped back Into his seat. While James Francis It Ice wan speaking Mr. Pollock and a number of others were standing at the rear of tiie court room. Mr. Chapiiell came hark through the rear room with a large knife in his hand and when lie caine on Pollock began to give vent to his wrath by cursing. Sheriff Please and others pulled liliu away before the knife could be brought into play. Cbap|H-ll was also said to have been on his way to the hotel where the candidates were stopping as they were taking their departure for I-uurens on the l o'clock train. Candidates had been forewarned of pros|M-etive danger at the Newberry meeting just as threatening letters have been received, relative to pending meetings in the Piedmont. Harry If.
