Deputy Connected With
Distillery Asked to Resign.
Aiken, S. C., April 22. —Sheriff
Howard this morning demaned
the resignation of Deputy Sheriff
Thomas M. Butler, of North
Augusta, on the strength of what
he said was positive evidence of
that officer being in league with
the operating of the big moon
shine still captured Friday at Bo
gard’s Hill, over the Edgefield
line, near Aiken county.
State Officer E. L. Scott, ap
pointed by Governor Cooper and
several prohibition officers in
Augusta are also said to be in
volved in the hush money scan
dal. This information comes di
rect from Sheriff Howard, who,
however, at this time refuses to
give the source of his information,
stating it was.not Lowther, the
moonshiner arrested, who squeal
ed.
A big wholesale moonshine
making plant was seized Friday
afternoon just over the Edgefield
line, out of Aiken county. The
raid was made by Sheriff How
ard, of Aiken, who called State
Constable Ed Andrews to cross
the county line with him, thus
legalizing the raid. Six men
were at work around the still on
the swamp branch, when the
officers arrived. All, however,
dashed to safety, but the leader,
John Lowther, a white man, who
was arrested and turned over to
Prohibition Officer A. W. McArty
for the Edgefield authorities.
Twelve large vats holding 9,000
gallons of beer, one four-horse
power steam boiler, a flake stand,
five sacks of sugar, 50 feet of
copper worms and thirty gallons
of high grade 105 proof corn
whiskey were seized, and des
troyed. Part of the moonshine
plant was hauled to Aiken and
Edgefield courthouse as evidence.
The party in the raid consisted
of Officers Gary Anderson, Mus
co Samuels, Walter Sheppard,
Ed Andrews, Sheriff Howard
and Deputy Robinson. This is
the third big still caught near
the Bogard Hill section, one be
ing seized only Thursday. The
still captured Friday had a cap
acity, when in full tilt, of a gal
lon a minute and has supplied
liquor for fifty miles around.
