Or. r Feb 8 Union county of Union an generally regarded at being largely responsible for the trend of areata, While admitting that Tba Journal's story Is aooarate in tba main, McLeod insists that be bad no Intention of accusing Cochran or any member of tbe committee of venality. '"Cochran did not even bint that he had any intention to try to bribe anybody," said McLeod. "He is an honorable man with a reputation aboTe suspicion, nor do I ' think any member of tie committee or of tbe bouse would aooepl a bribe. Tbe statement in effect made 'to me by Cochran Was that tbe people of Union bad raised 91,000 and could raise $16,00 If necessary in order to work the bill through tbe house. I , took it that the money wonld be expended legitimately; as expenses for the lob byists, and bardly as bribe money." McLeod admits telling tba oommit tee that if a favorable report was made on the bill be would call for a com mittee investigation Mas to 1 whether or not part of this money had been used for the purposes ol bribery." He qualifies Ibis admission by saying that be would have done so, if after tbe re port of the committee be bad learned thafout-siders had favored tbe bill."
