THE ASHEV1LLE TIMES OFFICER DESTROYS THREE STILLS J. A. Galloway Finds Three Plants and 3,300 Gallons of Beer. HAS FOOT RACE. The men who wounded Deputy Col lector J. A. Galloway on last Thanks giving day. causing him to lose the sight of one eye, have by no means reduced the capacity of that officer for destroying blockade stills; for since last Saturday this raider has cut to pieces three largo plants for the manufacture of illicit drinks and poured out 3,800 gallons of beer that was ready to be boiled for distilla tion. Mr. Galloway made his first find In Pickens county, 8. C, discovering nn outfit of IB gallons capacity. : Re turning to his home county.
