Piedmont Sessions.
Pickens Special to Columbia Stal
July 17.?Despite the threatenc
rain this morning practically 1.50
Pickens county voters came out l
hear the quartette "of United Stat?
senatorial candidates here toda;
Each r?jco'.ved an attoat've arid n
spectful hearing. There was none ?
the boisterous interruption that hi
^ characterized the major portion <
the campaign meetings in the Pie<
mont.
This county was carried by Go
Please two years ago by a majoril
of 962 It is a striking coincident
that Senator Smith's majority s
years ago was also 962. Senatt
Smith had a large following in tr
audience today and was warmly ai
plauded at the conclusion of h
speech. The general opinion, ho\
ever, was that Governor Blease
friouds were in the majority.
The meeting was held out in tl
grove near the court house, with (
F. Norri8, the county chairman, pr
siding. Several times during tl
speaking a drizzling rain threatens
to interrup. Once, when Senati
Smith was speakihg, the downpoi
was so heavy that Charley Lyoi
sheriff of Abbeville county, held a
umberella over the speaker so thi
lie might proceed.
FLOWERS FOR TWO.
Both Senator Smith and the go
^ .nor were favorites. In the diatrtbi
tion of flowers each received a bea<
tiful box from "friends in Picket
county." Senator Smith said 1
would press the leaves in memory <
"the three who thought they alt
ran." Senator Smith was also pr
sented with another small bale of ci
ton and Gov. Blease got a broa<
brimmed pannma hat.
W. P. Pollock was the first speaki
today. In answer to Senator Smith
accusation that the man fromCherr.
was a "razorback," this Candida
aaid that Senator Smith
"razorback" six years ago, though t
had since gained 50 pounds.
The whole United States sQpate I
said cotTfd not raise the price of co
ton, much less one senator fro
South Carolina The senator's mldd
name is Durant and Mr Pollock eal
that Senator Smith had been 'a-ran
Ing and a-ranting and a-ranting' tl
past six years, and that was all.
When it was pointed out that tl
governor had turned out more tha
900 negro convicts the answer can
back: "He did that so we could ki
' * them." Mr. Pollock spoke of the tr
of colonels on the governor's staff j
4'a sweet bunch,'' these being J. ]
Gibson of the Republican ticket n<
xoneiy, Riawin Hlrsch, the son of tt
owner and editor of the Republics
paper on which James L. Sims hi
typo, and James Sottile, "the Charli
ton blind tiger king."
The speaker paid a tribute to tt
Working man and said that ho hin
self had earned by hard labor all thi
he had, often peddling "sweet pot;
toes at 50 cents a bushel." Th
speaker got much applause when 1
sat down.
WAS THERE BEFORE.
Senator Smith reminded the Picl
ens audience that he hud addresse
them six years ago at the conolusk
of organizing the farmer's movemei
which was n few years of the hari
^ est work he had ever been called Uj
on to perform, he said. The farme:
then, he said had determined to hai
& share In the wealth of the worU
thoy had determines that if th<
had to go without clothing the cottc
brokers, too, should become aa "nal
ed as Jaybirds."
When the work was undertaken 1
-said, he was met on every hand 1
men who said the farmers would m
stick. He had found that a dolli
bill, from an Increased price of co
top, was the most effective stickle
plaster in existence. The stickli
power of money, he said, would ofU
stick the beat looking girl in tl
community up beside the ugliest ma
It..sometimes binds, be p^de*}, t
hop est man to a dishonest Job. "8
years have paired and we are stl
strioklng," the' senater added.
Each day the senator is remind*
that he Is a man with one Idea. T
day he said ho would not be-po u
kind as to pray that his opponents 1
given one original idea, lest th<
should die of apoplexy. His platfor
might be too small for "any mai
. to stand on, as the Cheraw Candida
had charged, but he had not sei
. "any men" trying to stand on tfc
to* mm
THtt I
platform; 'only pieces,' he explained,
When introduced thr: governor
Jsaid that he was glad Senator Smith j
got the small bale of cotton, as that
and the votes of a few "soreheads" '
would be all that he would get.
DENIES TWO STORIES. ( *
At the outset, he wanted to answer
two reports current In Pickens coun- j
ty. One was that a man had boen |
asked to pay $5 to be allowed to see ^
R | his wife, who happened to be an ln-j| jjlld
mate of the Hospital for the Insane.
?* According to the report, this demand
was made by the governor. The gov
ernor said that the man who had Kl
been circulating the report had con-,
fessed that he had done the ch'ef | SCt'tl
id executive an injury and that this .
11) man was in the audience to verify the IjUIII
o governor's statement. I j ^
The other was that a man named
I
Lawrence under a 30-year sentence I free
y for the unmentionable crime, had i
e- been pardoned. This was also unture j sil)l<
)f 1 the governor said as the negro by the
is same name pardoned was under a Iv
| sentence for assualt and battery,
j Another angle of attack was taken i JUKI
on the primary rules again today. t
The governor said that in the general
election the governor appoints the t.llO
ty 1 commissioners and these in turn ap.e
point the managers. According to the
x new primary rules the executive
)r committee appoints the managers of
i(> I tho primary anil the governor 3ald 1
that it would be seen to that all these 1
js were anti-Dlese men.
v The only reason, he explained that
, not been maoe the same as for the
y
general election was that the governor
appoints the supervisors of registration
and that the members of the
J' State convention knew that he would PIHM
0.
have kept the books of registration
10 u
j [open during the months of July and
1 August, so that eve,ry white man in I . TV
>r the State . could - register. BJ ?
ir He warned' the voters that, if an I ill
n> anti-Blease man should be elected I
111 governor, the requirements in the I
it I
primary would be made the same as
those in the general election, within
the next two years. *-1

ii- 1 TALKS OF THE RECORD. m
I iki
u-| L. D. Jennings was the last speakis
; er and devoted the major portion of
le his time to a discussion of the goV- fort,
at ernor's record. \
io This speaker got one of the most til 1(1
e- attentive hearings given during the
at ; campaign, because of the tactful.
d- broad-minded and reasonable man- Hlftti
j ner in which he appealed to his auar
| dlence. i Sto\

a "You can always tell where thje
?e governor stands," the speaker added, 1 1111(1
'but I don't agree with him as to his
10 ' ideas of government." Mv

1 "What will be the result of this; hO' g

111 years?" the speaker asked. VOU
8t 1 "Is a man's life safe now? Is your
8S ! property safe? Is a woman's virtue I
protected under the present system?'
ie These were some of the questions j
Q" ! which the speaker put to his hearers.
In defending the new primary
