ELMORE TELLS OF HIS FITNESS Addressed Voters Last Night, At Which Time He Pointed To His Record As Alderman A ld'Tiiia ii Kl mo rc in his address to the voters lat't night said: I understand that I am heing criti cised because I publicly announced myself in favor of law and order, be cause I annuunced that 1 would use my Influence to ree that all the laws aro enforced and not mei ely a part of them. I repeat the announcement: I be lieve in. a cli-an city and law-abiding community. When I am elected your mayor and an officer of the law this is what I will swear: "As mayor of Anderson I will equally, fairly und Im partially, to the host of my ability and shill, exercise the trust reposed in me and will use my best endeavors io preserve the peace and carry Into ef fect, according to law. tho purpose for which I have been elected. So help mc God." That is the rolcmn obligation I take, (hat is what I agree to tlo and ask for God's help to accomplish. Go you thing I shall keep that oath if I invoke the law against blind tigers and close my eyes to Illegal sales nf cigars and like things on the Sab bath day? Is that carrying out the purpose for which I shall be elected? Is "equally and impartially exer cising the trurt imposed in me" to have a poor devil arrcrtod for some misconduct on the streets and at thc same lime permitting a merchant to sell anything he pleases on thc Lord's day, when the law of your State, the luw of your city and the law of God Himself say it shall not he doue.' 1 ask you. the merchants of thia city, is it fair to you for'hie to permit your neighbors to sell cigars and soft drlnkr on Sunday and arrest you for selling sugar and clothe: ? Go you call this impartially enforcing the law? Gentlemen, this is light, and I would rather be right than mayor. In less degree but in principle, it ls the old attitude of Charleston, only worse bfcaure Charleston probably has no city ordinance against the things they openly do in defiance of State law. We are making a city for the fu ture as well us the present. You fa boys than you are about your selves. You arc more anxious about tbe kind of u city they must live in and labor In than about the kind of city you would like yourselves. Does it helps the boyr to be able to buy soft drinks;, cigars and cigarettes on Sun day against the law? Do you mean to tell mc that because some visitor to ?mr city on Sunday is occasionally de prived of a cigar or a coca-cola, that we must openly violate the law for him? Do you tell mc that a sensible, "lean man of character and intelli gence will shun a town merely be cause it requires him to buy his Sun day cigars on Saturday? No, the city that bases its prosper ity on law and morality will gain in character and happiness in two years what no city can ever gain from dls regk.d of law and loose standard of morality. Andersen now ha3 a splen did reputaUor as a city of fine morai Influences and I propose to do all in my power to guard her good name. Prend of His Record. I am very glad to find that every one of my opponents approves my re cord in the mutter of granting a fran chlr.e to the Southern Public Utilities company, but it reminds me of a man who, soon after tho civil war, was giving h i H friends a description Of the battle or Gettysburg. He pictured the great fight in an interesting manner until finally one follow on the out- | skirts of tho crowd spoke up and said: "And what company wore you In, John?" The speaker stopped sudden ly at the question and oacked off a lit tle from tho crowd and answered: "I wasn't thar, but Bill Jones told mo about lt." Needless' to say, John nar rowly escaped a lynching. Now, my friends, Ashmore, Payne and Godfrey no doubt would bav?- put up a good fight If they had beon there, but they weren't there'.' Like Bill Jones, I was "thar" and raw rome fighting and without intending to brag on myself, I want to say that it was 'some fight'. I needed Brothers Ashmore, Payne and Godfrey badly at times when my ammunition got low but I didn't re member that they gave me ammunition with which to fight aa my friend, the chairman of this meeting and others did during the tong struggle of about six months. I am glad to have their approval uow but their attitude re minds mc of thc man who locked the ctablo after the horse was gone. Their attitude also reminds me of a man who asks the people to reward him tor what the other follow did or tried to do. I only want to remind you that I stand upon servlcif actually rendered and not upon promises as to what -1 would have done If I had been in the other fellow's shoos. My records show that I opposed the orig inal proposal ot the Southern Public nullities Company for S 00-year fran chise. That I fought for tower rates ind got some reduction, but not what [ asked for. That I opposed-a mini mini rate of any amount whatever, and defeated tn that, tried to get lt down to )0 cents on water and ?6 cents on lights. My record shows that I spent ibout six months to defeat the 10-year proposition, to give the city the right Lo purchase and above all. my friends; ko permit, you to.say whether or not rou wanted the franchise glrcn by the city. He Accomplished Something. I want to drive this other truth l wo nt yoe to weigh lt well before you rote against me. What Und of a fran chise would bavo been granted the Southern Public Utilities Company if Alderman Elmore had not made his light? Would tba corr.nanv ?*ve bad i 40-year franchise ot' ? eO-year fran chise? . Would the city havo gained the right to purchase? Would the rates hare been Wwerod st all?

Illinois clone li?:- 237 delegates and other suffurgo atates are said to he well represented. Suffragists also assert that a poll of thc six members of tho resolutions committee, which can act on tho suffrage question, shows four in favor of the endorsement of suffrage. The resolutions committeo gained thc power to decide If suffrage shall come before the convention when the report of the committee on rules con signing all resolutions to the resolu tions committee wan adopted . today. The least the suffragists expect is that a minority report of tho resolutions committee wJU tbrow tho whole ques tion on thc floor. Considerable surprise was express ed when the report of tue committee on rules and regulations was adopted. Tho came rule adopted at San Fran cisco two years ago was criticised then as taking too much power from delegates. It placed the suffrage question at the mercy of six women. Tito fact that there was no negative voice raised to the adoption of tho re port went far to convince observes that the suffragists feel assured of some kind of endorsement In committee and the consequent opening of debate to delegates. Illinois delegates today adopted a resolution calling for "equal rights for both men and women" to be pre sented to tho convention. A report on membership by Mrs. Frank White, or .Valley City, N.
