The fact that the letters from the South Carolina Democrats are written by bankers, mill men, lawyers and men of such like has. had a strong effect here. Blalock's friends said today that the ''signers represented nearly a million dollars worth-of influence. As usual both factions of the South Carolina Republicans are represented hero. Tolbort is on top for his is National Committeeman, and also State Chairman. But the Blalock forces are going after Tolbert hard and fast and evidently to break his' grip, on theparty organization. Tolbert. so his friends say, is not in the least disturbed. Some of the Tqjbort group claim they have beeii receiving an unfair deal from the hands of the newspapers in Blalock faction to support an ail-white ticket, but that the Blalock rirtrn ni?n Hon broke away and itself n(jpUUHLilll puiij Uliu v.I a get under your aijmlhistcation."

R. T.

The letters . universally, commended Blalock as. the man who could bring the Republican party into some sort of respectability. Your correspondent has excellent reason to believe that Major Blalock ^.found a sympathetic listener in Slemp. and that even Will Hays is swinging to. the view that the only hope of any success is "to make a clean up of the Sputh Carolina organization. Slomp will head a special committee to view conditions in the South, and which yvill visit Columbia, Charleston and Spartanburg.
