Mr. Settle began by saying : that sucn meetings as this are needed to burnish up the enthusiasm of the vot ers. "This government," he 'declar ed, "is one In whicii the machinery is worked by the political parties." He said he had no 'sympathy with the man who would sit in the cltib room. or anywliere, and drink over his mint julip, would say great things but would not put his shoulder . to the wheel of his individual party ma chine and affiliate with the party that expresses his views. He declared he had always been a republican, haJ done no more strenuous work than during tiiat campaign against that demagogic-democratic doctrine of ne gro rule. With the crowd yelling, he cried out, "What does the demo cratic party stand for, anyway?" "No living man knows, God only knows, and He will not tell it."

He said Butler had once made the state democratic exec utive committee under the leadership of Manly bow before him, and, of course, they are now afraid of him. Several newspaper clippings were read by Mr. Settle in support of Mar ion Butler. Mr. Willis G. Brlggs interrupted the speaker to say he had always been a republican.

KILLED HIMSELF (By Leased Wire to The Times) Ridgeway, Va., Aug. fi A sensa tion has been created in this section of the state over the report of Pri vate Detective Joseph Funk, who has been engaged in working out the as sassination case in which Mayor H. A. Bouseman was blown to his death by dynamite. The detective's report to the Ridgeway town council is that Bouseman caused his own . death when he endeavored to injure him self with dynamite, in order to col lect accident insurance- policies to the amount of $6,000 and thus save himself and family from financial ruin, which. It has been discovered since the tragody, he was facing. Detective Funk followed innum erable clews, to find a cold trail at the end, and his report has been ac cepted by the council and by the majority of people in the community. This was especially true when the financial condition of Bouseman was learned. He owed $2,500 and to meet this had only $70 to his credit at the bank, and no other resounds. . Peculiar and despondent actions of Bouseman previous to tne explosion are also recalled. The detective believes that Bouse man held the stick of dynamite be- . tween his feet or lower legs while he ignited the fuse with his burninlg u cigar, as he lay on the lawn. .. A pa per bag found wrapped about some dynamite In bushes near the mayor' home Tuesday,, following the explos ion, was identified as one he got at A " store the day of his death. . . ; . ' - iiinnernr
