LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
Mr. Mulherln Makes Statement on
O’Dowd Case
To the Editor of The Herald.
Sir:—ln your issue last evening, in a
report of the O’Dowd case in the superior
court, the article stated that Messrs.
O’Dowd were seeking to be repossessed
of that portion of their warehouse that
the cty had condemned, or, to be paid a
price which was satisfactory to them.
1 wish to correct the impression which
that statement conveys to the public and
to say that Messrs. O’Dowd have stead
fastly refused to sell a portion of their
warehouse, and they will never do so,
unless finally forced by the courts.
The city has condemned practically 40
per cent of their warehouse, and deliv
ered it over to the C. & W. C.. R. R., and
Messrs. O’Dowd are left with only part
of a warehouse, which is entirely insuf
ficient for their business.
1 wish to make it plain that Messrs.
O’Dowd have refused from the beginning
of this fight, to consider any price for a
portion of their warehouse, and neither
the city nor the Railroad Co. can buy
part of it.
Messrs. O’Dowd are now answering an
Injunction proceeding before Judge Ham
mond. and I am averse to discussing in
public print, cases which are pending in
court, but as there seems to be a great
deal of interest in this case, I might ex
plain why Messrs. O’Dowd are required
to answer the temporary injunction
which Judge Hammond recently issued
against them. When the supreme court
recently decided that the city’s act in
taking this O’Dowd property was illegal,
it said in effect, that the Railroad Co.
were trespassers, and that the property
belonged to the O’Dowds.
Then when notice was given the Rail
road Co. that they must vacate the
premises, the city, through the city at
tcVney, asked for an injunction restrain
ing the o'Dowds from interfering with
the ra'lrond, and the facts alleged in
that petition for injunction, as sworn to
by M yor Hayne. set out, that the Rail
road Co. had built railroad tracks on this
O’Dowd property, and had the public to
serve, and that the O’Dowds had acqui
esced in the building of the freight depot
on the property.
Now that was certainly a remarkable
petition for the city of Augusta to pre
sent in an application for injunction, but
a still more remarkable document was
filed with the court, in this same cause,
when the C. & W. C. R. R., petitioned
the court to be made parties, and set up
that they have an equity In the property,
by reason of the fact that they had made
improvements on this property, which
improvements were not only made with
the consent of Messrs. O’Dowd, but that
if they had known that the O’Dowds ob
jected, that they would not have made
these improvements, in other words,
that they would not have built their de-
on the O’Dowd land. T am Just
stating these few facts without any at
tempt to aVgue the question at all, be
cause the matter is now before the
court, and I will conclude this statement,
by simply saving that the Railroad Co.
has not placed any tracks on the O’Dowd
land, and the O’Dowds not onlv did not
consent to the railroad taking their land
and building thereon, but that they put
up a protest and fought as long as they
could, even to the point where they
might have been in contempt of court
against the city or the Railroad Co. tak
ing any prfrt of their property, under the
Act which the supreme court decided was
unconstitutional.
Very truly.

13 AND ONE-HALF POUND
CANTELOUPE SHOWN
THE HERALD
Pleasant dream* of the noon lunch
were inatllled In th e minds of several
reporters at The Herald office this
morning when a oanteloupe weighing
13 4 pounds was exhibited. The melon
was simply magnificent In appear
ance (probably the same on the In
side, but this cannot be vouched for,
as the lady would not allow It to be
tasted, as the seeds are to be saved*.
This contaloupe was grown on th i
« farm of Mr. William James, near Bath,
Oa. It was stated that it was a com
mon occurrence for melons of ten and
eleven pound* to he grown but that!
In this instance the record has been
broken.

SMALL 111,
WILHALLA, S.C.
Walhalla, S. C.— With an undemon
strative crowd, numbering not over
500, and a rather tired quartet of can
didates, the senatorial campaign meet
ing here Thursday was a pretty tamo
affair, in glaring contrast to that of
two years ago, when at least twice as
many voters heard Governor Blease
and Judge Jones speak and when the
enthusiasm of the rival factions ran
high. Each speaker received some ap
plause Thursday, but there was appa
rently no favorite.
The candidates had not fully recov
ered from their exertions at the big
meeting in Anderson Wednesday and
neither was in his usual form, the
meeting being without special feature.
Governor Blease carried this (Oconeej
county in 1912 by more than 400.
Lambasting a Corpse.”
W. P. Pollock said he was exhausted
from his efforts in Anderson, where
he undertook “to dig a hole, put Cole
in it and cover him up," that his con
science hurt him, because he realized,
that in attacking the governor’s record
he was "lambasting a corpse.”
Pollock paid his daily respects to
Senator Smith’s record. The speaker
declared the greatest issue in South
Carolina is whether or not decenry,
law and order shall prevail. He de
clared he was running to elect himself
to the senate and nobody else.
“Smith thinks I’m the man he’s got
to beat,” he said. He was sorry the
governor would not sit on the stand
and hear his record discussed; that
not until the campaign opened did ho
know the governor “was feather
legged.” and that the governor knew’
his record was so bad that he couldn’t
hear it and keep his face, but "turns
turkey and runs away."
Pollock again referred to conditions
in Charleston, also to the appointment
of Gibson and Hirsch on the govern
or's staff.
Senator Smith Replies.
After poking a little fun at Pollock,
Senator Smith replied to Governor
Blease’s often repeated charges that
he (Smith) had voted against the
“Jim Crow bill,” had voted to give
$2,000 to the family of a man lynched,
and that he was a member of the Has
kell convention. He cited the journal
of the house to show that he voted
for separate coaches; and the consti
tution of 1895, which contained the $2,-
000 antl-lynchlng provision. He read
an affidavit from C. P. Moorer of St.
George, hich stated that he was In that
town the night of the Haskell con
vention.
The senator said he was not apolo
gizing, hut wanted the record properly
given; that, anyway, all these things
antedated the beginning of his work
for the farmers.
He challenged his opponents who
said he had nothing to do with raising
the price of cotton, to say that they
would not at least try to put up the
price If they go to the senate.
The senator was presented with a
miniature hale of cotton, which he de
clared to be “the emblem of the
South’s prosperity."
Governor Blease denounced two men
whom he called "camp followers," say
ing they pretended to he taking sub
scriptions for newspapers, but were
going around telling lies, trying to
make the people believe that he
(Blease) was losing ground.
The governor also bitterly attacked
Augusta Had Lead of Three Runs in the
Fourth Inning Yesterday Over Albany
and Then it Rained
Old Jupiter Pluviuß took pity on the (
Albany Babies yesterday afternoon,
'or some unknown reason, and pro
ceeded to "drown out” tho game in
the fourth inning. Of course August
had the lead, having scored three runs
to tne Babies naught.
Up until this Inning Winchell had
the Albany outfit at his mercy, not a 1
single hit being recorded off his de- i
livery, and as things looked It would ;
have been easy picking for the Com- !
backs.
Just as the locals had settled down |
and had started to playing winning
ball, and with the determination of
winning the pennant, why of course,
the rain began to Tall—but we should
"kablbble,” the race could not be a
closer one.

A FAVORITE IN AUGUSTA.
Mr. Paul Gilmore In his famous
play, "The Mummy and the Humming
Bird,’’ the always popular and well
known society comedy drama, will
come to the Bijou Monday, Tuesday
and Wednesday.
A fond and loving husband permtia
himself to be seduced by the fascinat
ing pursuits of science into neglecting
his loving and lovely young wife—a
a charming but unscrupulous Italian
who spends his leisure making love to
the spurned lady and an organ-grind
er, also from the sunny land of music
■and macaroni, who is camping on the
trail of his above mentioned country
man with the pleasing purpose of
sticking a knife between his ribs for
tils sins; are the chief characters of
the play. , G-)
The play is English and lords and
ladies abound while British butlers
and footmen give a flattering air of
luxury to the ensemble. The dialogue
is bright and witty, all the humor In
the piece being in its lines, the action
being tensely tragic without the re
lief of a single comedy situation. This
fact makes the piece ail the strong
er, however, ami the audience is held
enchanted throughout every act in
breathless expectation of the de
nouncement which is cleverly kept in
abeyance by the stagecraft of the au
thor, until the very end. That the
ending is a happy one and brings the
complete reconciliation of the couple,
goes without saying.
Mr. Paul Gilmore will he seen In his
great part of Lord Humley, "The
Mummy,” supported by a company of
well known artists, Including Miss
Mabel Scott, Miss Dorltt Kelton, and
an all-star cast.
Kir Chas. Wyndham originally pro
duced this play ten years ago In Ixm
don and it has been played continu
ously ever since. Mr. Paul Gilmore’s
revival of the play has been a wonder
ful success.
MAKE PLANS 10 MOVE
SOLDIERS’ BAGGAGE
At a conference this morning be
tween officers of the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association and Major
Abram Levy, arrangements were made
for the handling of certain baggage
of the soldiers coming to camp next
Tuesday.

six regulars from Florida will arrive
over the Atlantic Coast Line with
full army equipment, and at 4:45 that
afternoon the baggage for Companies
H, I, K, L, M, and headquarters, from
Kavannah will get here. The street
railway will assist in moving the bag
gage to the Monte Kano Riding on the
Hill and four large auto trucks will
be used to convey It from there to the
camp site at Aumond.
Messrs. Walker and McCullum of
the Coast Lino were present at the
meeting.
