The editor of the Advertiser at
tended the initial meetings of the
county campaign and took notes
in detail of all the speeches ex
p?cting to" reproduce each ODO at
some length, but finds it impossi
ble to compass, in a limited space,
two' county meetings and a Btate
campaign meeting (34 speeches in
all). Therefore, contrary to our
wishes and purpose, we can only
report the county meetiugB briefly
and in a general way, omitting,
entirely an account of the state
campaign meeting that was held
at Edgefield on Monday.
COUNTY CAMPAIGN.
Promises, Principles, Platforms
?Politics Prevail-Admirable
Addresses-Faul t l ess
Feasts. *
.-.-The county campaign has opeu
ed:and is being waged earnestly,
% vigorously-yet upon a high, dig
nified plane. The first volley in
t?iB war of words "was fired on
Thursday last, when under the
sttfrdy *aks hard by Gi'gal church
brainy sons of Edgefield discussed
the affairs of state. .
/?f the two initial meetings-at
Gilgal and"Red Hill-are fitting
types of the five.subsequent meet
ings the campaign of 1904 will be
a: remarkable one, approaching
more nearly the ideal than has any
other during the past decade.. The
" audiences were composed of manj
% laiiiea.and a number of intelligent
voters wno listened patiently abc

J^^e^sBTies ne rein-below men
tioned. The tw^Liater gentl&mei
referred with pardonable prid? t<
their Bervice and records as law
makers, and the) former, being i
political debutant, stated that hi
had no public record but if electee
? tb the state senate would make om
of which he and his constituency
would be proud.
The aspirants for legislativ?
honors, Hon. J. W. DeVore, S. M
Smith, Esq., Mr. J. B. Strother
Mi. A. G. Broadwater, B. E. Nich
sbn, Esq., and Mr, S. T. Williams
addressed the audience in tnt
order named. Mr. DeVore ga vt
an account of his stewardship and
with force and ability pressed hit
claims for re-election, and the
other gentlemen gave, in an ex
ceedingly creditable manner, theil
views upon certain issues that are
being discussed generally over the
state.
So nearly identical are the plat
forms and so nearly do the views
o?? all tho candidates coincide
(?andidates for Senate and House)
that we do not give their positions
separately upon the several ques
tions.
All agree that more money
should be appropriated for the
common, schools in which the
children of the masses can receive
ah English education. This is
right but we deplore the fact that
some of the candidates (all of
whose names'we do not remember)
while not avowedly antagonistic
to the state colleges are disposed
to somewhat prejudice the minds
of people against them. South
Carolina should do more for the
common schools but not less for
hor colleges, which do honor to
her name and should be the pride
of her people.
All favor increased pensions for
the Confederate veterans, also
. agree that the law should be
amended so there would be a more
equitable distribution of the pen
sion fund3.
All advocate an amendment to
the constitution giving the magis
trates greater jurisdiction, there
by reducing very materially the
court expenses.
All ba\e espoused the cause of
good roads, expressing the belief
that the present system will in a
few years accomplish the desired
results.- Not one declared himself
in^favor of taxation for road pur
poses.
Were it left to the law makers
from Edgefield the state farms
would be dumped into the Cou
garee river, if no purchaser could
H. found, and the convicts put
upon the public highways. So
mote it be. We wish that all of
these gentlemen-the trio for the
Senate and the sextette for the
House-could be elected.
And these selfsame gentlemen
should b? sent en masse to Colum
3?a to kill the amendment tu the
Brice bili (which taxes a county
Por ibo privilege of voting out a
dispensary) for they all declare it
to be most iniquitous.
While it is now up to the voters
to decid? whether we shall have
bi-enniat sessions' of the legisla
ture or not, all. of the ' candidates
exprepsed themselves in favor of
the change, except. Mr. Strother
and Mr. DeVore. The latter voted
to submit it to the people but,
personally, questions the wisdom
of bi-ennial sessions.
The orators of the day were iu
excellent spiritB an.d must have
experienced an inward "tickle as
they pictured themselves address
ing the President, of the Senate
or Speaker of the House instead of
an Edgefield audience.
The only candidate for solicitor
at Gilgal was Geo. Bell Timmer
m?n, Enq., who made a. short but
very appropriate speech. At Rei
Hill letters were read from Capt.
N. G Evans andS. McG.Simkins
expressing regrets on account of
their enforced absence.
The earae^caudidates for senate
aud House (except Mr. Broad
water, who was at the encamp
ment iu Columbia) who address
ed the audience at Gilgal spoke
at Red Hill, delivering about the
same speeches. Mr. C. E. Quarles
presided over the Red Hill meet
ing with becoming dignity.
It was mutually agreed by ihe
candidates for Superintendent of
Education, Messrs. W. A. Byrd
aud W. D. Hollaud, that they
would not speak at Gilgal or
Trent?u,the respective homes of
these gentlemen, but both made
appropriate speeches at Red Hill.
Cold Spring:
DEAR ADVERTISER: On last
Friday as the heavy morning
coluds began to break away and
the sun began to shine, the peo
ple began to pour in at Red Hill
to attend the great barbecue and
hear the candidates speak. There
were about three hundred present
All were in a good humor anc
seemed to want to make each olhei
have a good time. The candidatef
for the state senate, legislature aud
superintendent of education made
speeches. The candidates for .hf
senate and legislature spoke ot
tho issues of the day. I believt
they all declared themselves ii
favor of the Brice bill. They al
spoke of trusts, tariff, income tax
and educa'ion. They all dil
well, and were well received b
the people who heard them.
The candidates were prosent i
great numbers,, shaking baud
with their many friends..

Archy told the dueky GUB about
his stealing his melons Gus die
not intend co have his good name

so he whipped out his pistol and
swore that he would shoot Archy's
head off. Archy took to his heels
and made hie way to judge Bell,
had a warrant sworn out for Gus.
So Gus is now in the Edgefield
