taa haa don* the work ha haa done in
trying to break up thia form of crime.
He state* be haa worked in aia differ
ent count!** trying to tel) the people
what it take* to suppress liquor traffic.
He argea Johnston county people to
put an end to blockading. His views
are stated In the following latter
which he haa had published in the
Smilh/lald Herald :
“I wish to lay something In behalf
of our good friend J. Ali Wall, who
gave hi* life trying to uphold the
moral* of our county. Now let every
body atop and think for Just ana mo
ment who is reinonaible for his mur*
der, the bkickaders, or tho public. I
wish to toy it’* tho public who to re
sponsible (or such • high-herded
crime. Whet happened last summer
ia that section? Wasn’t on* Charlie
Sterling murdered end BO ose pun
ished for tho crime? Charlie Stal
ling was supposed to bo an informer
oa tbs bloc leaders. Then was tho
time the public Mould hart risen up
and put all its might in suppressing
tho guilty partlss who did this murder.
Tho person who informs on the block
ed*™ is runing more risk than any one
else. An officer has got more pro
tection than an ordinary person
When he goes out raiding stills be uau
sityhas several men with Urn.
There isn't any one wbo regrets
the kflltng of our Deputy Sheriff Walt
any more than myself, but MU-.the
killing of ooa good man will be the
meing ef lives of others ia many
ways. I have bean trying to suppress
blockading and blind tigering for ever
five years. No one baa fully coene to
my aid yet. I have not only put in
■I tins, but have spent my own
money as wall.
It to thought by a good many people
that I am getting god pay. But tbs
kind of pay I have been getting is a
coming ovary now then. But I am
man enough to take it and most any
thing elan they want to put on me.
“T have this much to my, tf the pub
