GOVERNOR McSWEENEY NOT A CANDIDATE, TO RferlRK FitiM 'UlI.I(' OFFIcE AND ATNI'.N1) TO PItVA TK 1)UrlE. Ba 1,nn4U His Uuty We-ll to H State, WnS Party and to Hiuself-To Retire With Regretg on the Part of Him Many Friends. Columbia Special to News arid Courier, 16th. Gov. McSweenoy has finally de cided that he will not be a candidate for any office in the approaching primary. He has now nearly filled his two terms in the executive chair and feels that he has done his full duty to his State, his party and him self. It may' be added that Gov. McSweeney does not avoid entering the primary from any fear of defeat, because he has been assured that his friends would take care of him; but that is neither here nor there, and of course it would have had to be tested at the primary whether he could have won or not. It may be re marked incidentally that Gov. Mc Sweeney has never yet offered him self for any public office in this State and been defeated. It may be mentioned that a large part of the success of Gov. Mc Sweeney's administration has been due to his obsolute confidence in and co-operation with the people of the State through their representatives. He has not ignored connty delega tions, as has been so often done b,y previous governors, but, on the con trary, he took the people into his confidence and counsel through the country delegations. And auother source of the Governor's success, probably the most marked, has been his successful business training. When he went into- the office of Governor he took with him his strict and orthodox business ideas, and whatever went' into his office was disposed of with the utmost dispatch and publicity. His administration, therefore, was exceedingly satisfactory to the busi ness interests of the State, especially as he undertook no radical measures, but was satisfied to encourage the momentum of prosperity that he found in South Carolina, and he has the very great pleasure of knowing that at no period in the history of Sout.h parolmna has there been greater industrial development than during the nearly four years of his admin istration, and it is a source of great gratification to him to know that the wave of industrial prosperity and progress is now higher than it has ever been in South Carolina and that he is told by many business people that this has been largely due to his conservative administration and to his fostering the era of good will and good feeling on the part of all of the people. When Governer McSweeney was asked about his not being a candi date he replied: "I have been asked a good many times in the past few months what I intended to do politically. A great many of my friends have showed a very kind interest in my future and seemed anxious to know what I in tended to do. I have invariably re plied that I had not fully determined my plans and, therefore, could give them no definite answer. Many of my friends in different parts of the State have urged me to become a candidate for re election to the office of governor. I appreciate more than I can say their kindly interest and voluntary ffers of support and especially their commendation of my course as G3ov. rnor. During my term of officee I have endeavored to discharge my :dties faithfully and conscientiously, ad my purpose has always been so to act in all matters presented to me that I would feel right about what ever action I might take. Any man in public office, especially in the po sition of Governor, may expect to hve his actions criticised. There are always those who find fault, and I have never objected to honest,legiti ate andl fair criticisms. I have given to the press every official act, wheth er it was the granting of a pardon or a commutatinn or the refusal of one; whether it was the issuing of a pro elamation of any kind or the appoint met1t of an official, for I have held that the people were entitled to know what was being done by their ser vants. I have had no secrets, but my official acts to have been an open book to the peopbe, whose servant I am and to them I arT always ready to render account. "In regard to the race for Gov ernor, while I have been elected to one full term, I served nineteen months of Governor Ellerbe's term, and, while it is not forbidden by the Coristitution, yet I realize that it is an unwritten law that one man shall not have more than two terms, which I have practically had. Therefore I have decided not to enter the race for re-election as Governor." Governor, it has been intimated that yon would probably be acandi date for the United States Senate to sncceed Senator McLaurin." "My friends in different sections of the State have been kind enough to urge me to make that race and, while I am not unmindful of their consideration and appreciate their good will, I have decided to retire and give my time to my private in terests, which of necessity, have been sorely neglected and need my atten tion. I shall continue to take a lively interest in public affairs and shall at all times stand ready to con tribute what I can, as a private cit izen, to the apbnilding and progress of the State I love and whose people have honored me." This decision on the part of Gov ernor McSweeney will no doubt give a good deal of satisfaction to some of the candidates. DR. WO )DWARD Is- RETIRED. No Longer President of South Carolina College. Columbia, June 12.-The board of trustees of the South Carolina Col lege, after having been in session almost continnously for two days, ad journed this afternoon about 3 o'clock. As a result of the deliberations Dr. F. C. Woodward has been retired as president of the institution by a' unanimous vote, it is said. For some time the matter has been developing it seemingly being im possible for Dr. Woodward and the faculty to get along without friction and there being considerable friction between the president and the stu dent body. It was brought before the board at this annual meeting, and after putting certain questions to members of the faculty, the board determined that Dr. Woodward's usefulness as president had ended and proceeded to retire him. Noth ing in the records of the meeting re feets in any way upon Dr. Wood ward's character. Prof. Ben Sloan has been request ed to act as chairman of the faculty discharging the duties of the presi dent until the board casts about and at a later meeting, to be called, elects a president.

I was told by one of the visitors to the exposition at Charleston that they saw the exhibits of that institution. It showed to the people what the deaf and the blind can do.
