TWO SMITHS; TWO KILLS
Our attention has been called to the
fact that there In gome confusion a?
to the author of of the Sin it h-Lever
bill and we have been asked to ex
plain it. This really bore? uh, an it
lias been explained by Senator .Smith
and by Mr. I .ever until we thought
that everybody understood it. Sena
tor Hoke Smith of Georgia, has been
quoted in an Atlunlu paper an stating
with feeling ttiat Senator IS. 1). Smith
bad absolutely not hing to do with
the Smith-Lever bill. So far uh we.
know, this Ik absolutely correct, and
wo do not know that Senator K. I).
Smith's friends have been claiming
it. If they have, the/ are wrong.
The bill in which Senator E. D.
Smith was so deeply Interested, and
in which Mr. Lever look a strong hand
in the house, wan of an entirely differ
ent nature.
The "Smith-Lever" bill, hb it was
culled, was a bill tu provide for the
extension work of the agricultural
colleges of the country. Neither Sen
ator Hokc Smith of Georgia, nor
Congressman Lever of this state, de
serve any special credit for originat
ing it, for it wus un old bill, that bus
been introduced In every congress for
the past ten or fifteen years. Mr. Le
ver introduced u hill of this kind in
the last congress, which passed the
house, and Senator Page of Vermont,
Introduced a ?imilur bill, which pass
ed the senate. The two houses of
Congress could not agree on u com
prenne on the two bills and so the
measure died. In the present con
grena Mr. Lever got the help of Sena
tor Hoke Smith of Qeorgla, and be
tween them they got the measure
through. Hence, it is known un the
"Smith-Lever" bill, although neither
of them originated the main Idea em
bodied in the bill.
But the (E. D.) "Smith-Lever" bill
to regulate the dealing in cotton fu
tures, was Introduced by Senator E.
D. Smith of South Carolina. He se
cured the paBBage of his bill through
the Senate, and it has passed the
house, after some amendments, and,
we understand will become a law in
the modified form. ThiB is the bill
Introduced by Senator B. D. Smith of
South Carolina and rightly and prop
erly known as "the Smith Cotton
Bill," and not the "Smith-Lever" bill.
There are two bills entirely differ
ent and separate, and both of the Sen
ators Smith helped each other out with
their bills. If the friends of Senator
B. D. Smith have been claiming for
him the. "Smith-Lever'1 bill, they were
in error, for It was the other bill In
which he was interested.
We are Informed that- Senator
Smith has been working on the bill
for a long time, and caused a con
gressional Inquiry before the bill was
Introduced. After it was introduced,
Mr. Lever amended It in tbo house,
after conference with tbe department
of agriculture. But each Senator
Smith had a bill.
A GOOD BEGINNING
The. county campaign opened pleas
antly at Honea Path yesterday. The
number of candidates offering for po
gtfts-trt tv>olroa tlw> motto** r\f r*i%K j i/*
Bpeaking almost unwleldly. The can
didates for the legislature and for the
state senate have too little time in
which to state their views on ques
tions of the day.
The campaign itinerary waa origi
nally devised some 20 yea?s ago,
as a "campaign of education" In order
to advise the people as to the condit
ion of affaira in the government and
also to discuss progressive and re
form measures. But with so many
to present their personal appeals it is
Indeed a dlrhcu.lt matter to get broad
views before the public.
True, there are some who are con
tent not to know any more than for
whom a candidate "stands" with ref
erence to the so-called higher offlcofl.
This disposition does not appear to
be general and we believe that the
people of the county as a whole aro
going to inquire for efficiency and
capability as well a? for political
standing.
We believe in give and take. We
believe that there are good men in
all walks of life, In all political align
ments, and wo are not prepared to ac
cept any poor candidate or to reject
any good man because of some "issue"
which may appear relevant for the
moment, but In later years may prpve
to have been an error.
v.'? ?bVq s great .county. We &!!
love love its history; love Its position
in agriculture and In commerce/ and
In education and church affairs. Let
every man In selecting candidates for
all offices try to get the men who will
discharge all duties faithfully, as well
as wisely, and give to the men who
are elected our cordial rVupport In the
discharge of their duties. We hope
and believe that the campaign will
continue as pleasant as It has com
menced.

A (.(KMI MOVE
We wish io commend the furnier?
of Anderson county who have called
a mauti meeting al Hie court house
Monday to iIIkcumh the mailer of fi
nancing Hie crop. This meeting here
i? preliminary to sending delegates
to the convention in Washington.
There will he <|iiite a large party
from Anderson, for the Pullman that
was to he operated out of here has
already had every berth taken, we are
informed.
The meeting of the farmers was
suggested through this paper several
days ago, and we wish to add that it
lias the approval of the Chamber of
Commerce, as Jas. I), ilaminctt, chair
man, so expressed himself to this pa
per before leaving the city for a few
days rest in the mountains.
The meeting in Washington Is
fraught with much importance, and
we believe it will result In much good.
We have never feared the ultimate
outcome of this proposition, for as we
pointed out some days ago the in
crease In trade between this country
and the South American republics is
sure to 1?? so marked as to overcome
any temporary set back. The only
thing which confronts us now is to
hold the situation together until the
present feeling of timidity and ner
vousness wears off.
We hear that a great many mer
chants in South Carolina will be In
the eastern markets on the day of
the democratic primary.

MR. POLLOCK ALLEGES THAT
DARLINGTON MAN DID
THIS
A BIG CROWD
Attended the Meeting at Darling
ton Yesterday?Smith Goes
To Washington
Special to The Intelligencer.
Darlington, August H.Approximately
?"f? voters heard the senatorial can
didates here today. Darlington people
say that two-thirds of the crowd was
unti'administration. There were about
801) Mease followers, some from other
counties.
The meeting was feaured by the
charge by W. P. Pollock that "Josh
Kirvln held a mortgage on a Darling
ton county plantation in remunera
tion for recently invoking the gover
nor's mercy for A. G. Tedder, convict
ed of manslaughter and sentenced io
life imprisonment. Klrvin is a candi
date for the state legislature and the
charge was made in Darlington today
that tills local candidate had been
promised the privilege of distributing
slate patronage. The governor had
commuted the life sentence to 20 years
on the cliaingang before the pardon.
Senator Smith departed from his
customary speech for a moment today
to make Iiis first plea of the campaign
for the cotton mill vote. A group of
mill operatives were attempting to'
heckle and confuse the speaker.
Turning directly to these, Senator
Smith said he would work for them as
faithfully as he had for the farmers
if the milt workers would take him
into their confidence. He emphasized
this by assuring' them that he would
make no promise that he would not
keep.
In the morning a petition had been
presented to Governor Blease asking
that he call an extra session /of the
legislature to formulate some plan of
concentrated effort to counteract the
demaralized condition of tUer cotton
markets incident to the war crisis In
Europe. The governor explained that
this extra session would be called only
on the condition that the members
agree in advance to pass a "stay law"
which would not admit of the fore-]
closure of chattel mortgages.
L. D. Jennings, who spoke -, first, I
came to the defense of newspaper!
men by saying that the governor's
campangn was built largely,.on.abuse|
of the newspapers and-the newspape.'
reporters. This speaker isaid that he|
didn't know anything of the newspa
pers' reports of previous campaigns.
He did know, though, ho added, that
the reporters in this campaign were
giving accurate accounts of the meet
ings and had not at any time told lies
on any man. Mr. .Jennings explained
that the newspapers were educating
the people, as to the chief executive's
record, much to the- despair of^the
governor. He and Mr. Pollock, the
speaker explained, had held up the
governor's record from day to day and
tha Dfnvarnnp ?lS.d HOt yet t?d t!?9 torn
erlty to call them liars.
Senator Smith leaves tonight for|
Washington to formulate plans in ad
vance for the cotton congress. He |
today read a telegram from the assist
ant secretary of the treasury assuring
the senator that this official would
j meet with the senator tomorrow
morning in conference to go over the
financial situation.

wished to rest. The whole house was
thrown open, every one felt we are

After dinner each child received :
