April 26th, la the day, the fourth Sat urday. Article 2 of the Constitution of the democratic party provides that tlie clubs shall n.-.-et on. the fourth Saturday tn April every election year to reorganize for the year's work. Gen. M. L.

Then again you remember how fear |rul this contest was waged from the same source by the element of the people, and yea, thise cowardly assas sins of character have attempted to decolv? the people outside of the State by continually yelling that it ?was Bleasc that was creating strife, ?that it was Blease that was carrying on a campaign of vituperation and abuser When they knew and all the ?people of South Carolina knew, and know now, that I was discussing is sues and doing all within my power to keep -down factional strife, and no : man can point to a speech 1 have ey? ,r.r SMM!<P rt'uiyM bruugut aoout, or (would bring about, faction against faction, class against ' class, labor aRainat,..capital or vice-versa. ; Thf.vigh all of it I sat and said nothing.

It stems, however, that already the clam or bas begun, and thal another cam paign 1c to waged bV a*? opponents, based uipoii falsehood and abuse.

That is the man with his associates, with his i mle pendent is in, ,with his record as a bolter and as aligning with. negroes against white ?people, who dares to criticize my De mocracy. j Bet?re becoming a regu?ar candi date for the United States senate, I, as 'all other candidates, will fa't? th*\ fol 1 lowing pledge provided by the Demo teratic party, of thc Stats: "Ac a candidate for thu oitlc ; of United States senatr.. in the Demo cratic primary el*".?ion, to bc held on the lust Tuesday in August, 1914; -I .hereby pledge> myself to abide th? re sults of such primary ard support the nominee thereof, and I declaro that I .am a democrat and that ? am not, nor I will I become the candidate of any ; faction, either privately or publicly I suggested? other than tho regular ?Democratic nomination.

If tb"j vote for me will he compared to the vote for Mr. Wilson, will be shown that my friends and I were more loyal to the Democratic nominees than the other side, because 'Mr. Wilson received more votes rn ?this Slute than i did, and most ?8* jsurcdly any fool will admit that Mis IBleasc men did not vote for Wilson and at thc same time neglect to vota Ifor illeasa.

And yet this dUty. mixed-breed editor, ia attempting, through the columns of his paper, to hold up to the people of this state that' I sm not in sympathy .ard ?'-cord with the National Democratic platform. ? I am not maning on Mr. Wilson's coat tails. I am not swinging on to tbs OubanB and roixid breeds and other ilaskellKes. negro D-.msltes and other allgnors of 18?0 and 1894 to be elected to the United States senate from South Carolina. I am not a member of thc ITaakeli convention. J stood out in the open and supported Tillman and ti? regular Democratic nominee*. I stood for the true Dem [pcratic principles then, RS I stand today and as I stand in ibis campaign', and I am willing to compare .records [with those who Me. today alternating criticise iHKfltfHflHUBNf? I I am B?rry, way felJow-citlxens, to have to refer to loase matters here today, but you see the trend that some rCOp.c mir utmii? .?an ino enort tbgt the.y are making, endeavoring to show 'ta?t I qhnulri -??* Kc. e?.w.?cJ JK united states senate because ci the fact thst I waa not a support?

Surely also *>ple.*a<n not forgotten tas ?im?n was senator, th President Cl? .>* ieerfeL Yet, nobody so far as 1 can remember, held Mr. Tillman up and said that be should ; be defeated because of thia, because. Mr. Tillman was standing by th Dem ocratic, platform and' the Democratic party, as be ?aw it. and Mr. .Cleveland was not, as Mf. Tillman saw it. So far as I am concerned, I am not swinging on to anybody's coat-tails. In 1890 I was a reformer, but 1 did not run on the coat-tails of any man. In fact. I had run for the Legislature in Newberry county tn 1888. and re ceived a majority of the votes cast. However, there were three who receiv ed a higher vote than myself ? anil as there were only three places tn tho Legislature, 1 had to wait until 1890, when I was elected by a handsome ma jority, -lu 1894, I declined aa a can didate for the Legislature, to pledge i myself to the tb m Governor B. R. ; Tillman or then Senator W. C. Butler, tor a seat in the United. States senate, . because I believed in running on .my. ?own merits and not upon the coat tails of any'man. I have <*ver refuted ! to do so. I recognize the political j bees, so tar as my actions in this world arc concerned, except the peo ple, whose servant I am, and to whom Ianswer, and to whom I answer for all my public acts. As to my persona) acts, as to my morality and my pri vate life, I believe that there is a God; I love Him, I honor Him, and to Him will 1 answer, and upon Him I depend for my health, my strength, my suc cess in this world, and for a re wv rd in the world to come. I do not propose , to make this campaign hanging upon (the coat-tails of any maa, but stand in*; firmly and squarely as a Demo crat-as a Jeffersonian Democrat. In this connection, 1 do not cure to refer to anything unpleasant, huir it should be remembered that Mr. [Bryan, the present Secretary of Stale I of the United States undert PrdeTJen* i Wilson, bolted the Democratic ticket ,in Nebraska in 1910 or 1911. Nolie or these papers tbst are now raising this howl are now accusing bim of 1K 1 in an independent or of not being a Democrat.
