Norfolk, Va., Aug. 13.?Senator MoLaurin of South Carolina passed through Norfolk today with his wife and child en route to the Pan-American exposition. He talked with1" several of the ; Democratic leaders here for the State convention which will discuss the general primary plan fer election of senators. To the Associated Press representative be made the following statement: ' For many years the campaigns in South Carolina have been in the nature of personal abuse between candidates. The present campaign is the first one in which an issue is at stake. My series of speeches which were begun last April have started the people to thinking and they have become aroused. Senator Tillman has answered my arguments by heaping personal abuse upon me. He threatened to go out among the mill operatives and arouse them against the mill owners if I continued urging the expansion policy and the carrying of American products in American bottoms. Expansion is not imperialism; the first a business question, the other a matter of politics. It is foolishness for anybody to claim that a man cannot believe in ship subsidy, the carryingef American exports in American bottoms and expansion without being a Republican. I am going into the primaries in South Carolina next fall and I expect to defeat Senator Tillman."
