i he Lexington Dispatch ; tf. M. HAUMAN. Editor and Publisher. I LEXINGTON. S. C., ( WEDNESDAY. JULY 24. 1001. < LEXINGTON CALLS FOR LEVER. ! Tomorrow the Slate Democratic i Executive Committee meets to fix i the date of and arrauge for a pri t.A nominate a candi 1X1 Oi J VtWk?\/u WW ~ d-te for a Representative in Con- j gress from tbe Seventh District to , succeed the late Dr. Stokes. , Tne time, therefore, is propitious , for Lexington to put forward her ( claims to name the candidate for this position and to urge one of her sons , to champion her cause and carry her , banner to success. Since the troublous days of ?76 up A~ n'oaonk fim? Tjeviiifflon. on I U VUC ^/AV-OVMV 0 , account of her overwhelming Dem- , ocratic majority, has been tacked od to the tail end of a doubtful District in order to make it safely Demo cratic beyond peradventure. On the proposition of expediency, she has heretofore willingly surrendered her ambition to see one of her sons in the balls of Congress and consented to allow the candidate to come from another county and patiently awaited her turn when one of her sons would - * .t t be called upon to fill tms nonoraoie position. She nobly supported the brilliant statesman and eloquent orator, M. P. O'Connor, and largely to her fidelity and patriotism is the District due the honor cf having been j represented by such a distinguished i Carolinian. ! After the death of this lamented j public servant, Orangeburg pressed her claims for the position and named a worthy son in the person of that ; great commonor and astute coun- i selor, the Hon. Samuel Dibble. Lex- | A ingtou again, for the sake of har- ; nioDy and expediency, did not press ber claims and gave the candidate I from Orangeburg her enthusiastic ! support, and continued to do so until I his voluntary retirement. - 1 Once again when the District was 1 threaten* d by negro domiuitioD, Lex I ington rallied to the support of 1 Charleston's distinguished candidate, < IVI j >r, now Judge, W. H. Brawley, i when both justice and equity made < this the logical county from which the < candidate should have been selected. I Again Orangeburg put forward I another candidate to succeed Mr. | Brawley aDd with Lexington's vote | and influence that profound jurist I and honored son of Orangeburg, < Hon. James F. Izlar, was called upon \ to assume the duties of the lv?pre- < sentativo from the District. The political revolution of 1800, brought new men, new conditions, l and new measures before the people, < the one for preferment and the others i for adjudication Orangeburg again ] put forward the lamented Stokes, and 1 Lexington, true to her traditions and her past record gave him her support, and continued to do so up to the time 1 of his death. i Lexington's time has now arrived j when she intends to press her claims, ( and she can conscientiously and consistently appeal to Orangeburg and the other counties which compose , the district to come to the support of , her brilliant young son, who, in point , * * v ? J) of intelligence, stateemansnip smi ability is the inferior of none. ( From the trend of public opinion, i we gather that the Democracy of Lexington county almost unanimously j look to the Hon. A. Frank Lever to carry her banner to victory, and the people call upon him, in the name of the "grand old Commonwealth"? ] "the State of Lexington"?to lay , aside his personal preferences and rtspond to her demand. I In calling upon Mr. L?ver to make i the race as Lexington's choice, it is prcper to give a biitf outline of the history of this brilliant and remark- ] able young man. He is twenty seven i vears of ace, but this fact should by no I means be placed to bis disadvantage | as there are many notable instances < in history of young men in politics, , who have shed lustre on the State and added glory and honor to its name. Among these we recall the names of Calhoun at the age of 20; Clay, Speaker of the House, at 27: Kandolph at 21: Ciisp at 24: and today there are a large number of members of Congress under .'10 years who are ably and tfliciently serving their constituency. Indeed, public sentiment is favorable toward selecting young men for Congress, and, again, what Mr. Lever lacks in years j he more tban makes up in experience | and ability. He was born and raised upon the ' i"n tKia AAlinft Ortfl J til Hi Ui USD iaiuct iu iun WUU?J | attended the public schools of his community between harvesting and planting times. He developed an j aptitude for knowledge and informa- j tion far beyond what would be ! 1 -expected from one of his tender age, i ' and as he grew older his thirst after ; 1 higher attainments grew with him 1 and he decided to prepare himself ( for college. He entered Newberry ( College and graduated in 1895, with 1 first honors, winning his laurels from ' the largest class that, up to that ] time, graduated from that inatitu- j 1 tiou. In 1394 he was awarded the medal for oratory over eighteen competitors. Since his graduation he has been I i close student of economics and ; saving had exceptional opporiuni j :ies to read after the best and most i conservative authorities on these ; subjects, which so vitally I'ffect the nterest of the people, be took ad- I rantage of them and today there is ; qo better informed young man in the j State on National questions than Mr. Lever. In 1857 he was appointed Secre- j tary to Dr. Stokes aod accceptably served in this capacity UDtil the ! death of the latter. During his en cumbency he won the confidence and esteem of Dr. Stokes by his fidelity, bis never flagging industry and close attention to his duties, the prompt and intelligent discharge of which greatly assisted the Doctor in carry- j ing out his measures tending toward | the convenience and interest of his constituency, and became a personal and intimate friend of the now dead statesman. i He giaduated in law at the University of Georgetown, and in 1899 he stood the Bar examination before the Supreme Court of the State and was admitted to practice, but has never practiced, and it is Dot likely that he ever will as his taste, inclination and early training all lead him to follow the avocation of his ancestors, and during the intervals between the sessions of CoDgress, "he followed the plow.'' In 1900 he was elected to the State Legislature by the largest vote ever jriven a candidate in the history of the county, and his record has ever been consistent with his promises made on the stump. Such is the brief life's history of Mr. Lever and now, you, Frank Lever, the people of Lexington call upon you to do battle for her, so get thee up, gird your loins, buckle on four armour and go forth to conquer. Being tbouroughly familiar with the plans, purposes and work of Dr. Stokes ho is pre-eminently qualified to pick up the threads which have been broken and carry on that work without delay and without friction to a successful completion. Being brainy, progressive and persevering, clinging to tbat which he undertakes with a wonderful tanacity, he is fully equipped in every respect to worthily discharge the duties of Representative with credit to himself and honor Lo the District, and we can assure the voters of the Seventh District tbat they cannot possibly bestow their suffrage upon a more deserving, competent and worthy candidate should he barken to the call of his couutv, and enter the race. The State Summer School for teachers has just closed a very successful term at Spartanburg. The sessions were held in Converse College, and the attendance reached 625 teachers The work of the school was very satisfactory and the result will be profitable to those who attended in the management of the schools over which they may preside, and in this respect, at least, much good was accomplished. Texas has heen relieved of the long drmioht bv fine rains. The rain i8 O sufficient, it is reported, to save the cotton crop. By proclamation of Gov. Dockery of Missouri, last Sunday was ob served as a day of fasting and prayer to Almighty God, that the drought iu that State might be broken. Mrs. Kruger, the wife of President Kruger of the South African Republic died on the 21st instant, after a short illness. The long separation from her husband, combined with the death of her favorite daughter, and broken in spirit. It is said that the post office de partwent is now selfsustaining, its revenues exceeding its expenditures by a neat sum. If this is the case a reduction in postage, or an extension jf the rural free delivery, is now in order. fiSSS pn B iiN CUBAi I where it is hot all the year round g Scott's Emulsion!
