Die Lexington Dispatch G. M. HARMAN. Editor and Publisher. I EXINGTON. S. C.. WEDNESDAY. AUGUST Si. 1901. Campaign Meeting at Leesville. The last Congressional meeting appointed ft r Lexington couDtv by the State Democratic Executive Committee was held at Lepsville last Fridav A little spirit was injected into this meeting and the dull monofonv, which has heretofore characterized tbe=e meetings broken by four of the fivp candidates jumping on candidate Lev*r for asserting that tbo race w,ir not alone for bis benefit but was Lexington county's fight as well. This, they claimed, was sec tioDalism and was establishing a bad precedent and one that was to be deplored. Leesville, the beautiful little town where the meeting was held, is a live and progressive place and here refinement, intelligence and culture of a high order is maintained and encouraged by her hospitable and gene rous denizens It is Doted for its j healthy and salubrious climate and ! water; its charming and aocomplishred women; the patriotic devotion to State and county of her sons; the push and energy of her business mer; its wide and shady streets; the deep religious and moral tone which per vades tbe place and tbe peace ana tne law abiding and peace loviog reputation of the people. Leesville has made wonderful strides aloDg the road of progress since last we were there and our heart was filled to overflowing with pride and admiration in noticeing the many evidences of material and permanent prosperty, which were to be seen in all directions. Tbe town i? fast putting on the appearances of city life and is doing a largo volume of business annually The opening *? ? ? 1 i 1 a 1! ol tfie .Lee estste, wdkd nereioiore until recently, has not been on the market to settlers and improvement, has contributed in a large measure to the upbuilding of the town and the day is not so for in the distance when Batesburg and Leesville, the twin sisters will meet, embrace and kiss each other making a city of no mean dimensions and one that will be an honor and a blessing to Lexington county. These people take a lively and patriotic interest in political meetings when they arecoDduct ed on a high toned and elevated plane and as the campaign which has just closed in this countv was such an one ber people turned out about 300 strong, manv of whom were ladies; to hear National issues discussed and expounded by the fathers of Democracy as interpreted bv the candidates and to be instructed and educated on I be economics which are now engaging the attention and agila'ing the public mind all over thi?? broad and glorious land of ourR which has been symbolized in soDg and story as the borne of the brave and the land of the free. Plantain A. P. West, the most patrotic son of that patriotic place was made chairman of the meeting and provided with that charming grace and ease, and with the utmost W impartiality and fairness, which have ever characterized all bis public and ^ private pets. The meeting itself was an ideal one, conspicious for the total absence of unseemly and boisterous conduct which have too often been the predominant, elements of similar meetings held elsewhere in the past and the people of Leesville can take a just pride in having set such a worthy and commendable example for other localities to follow. Hon. A. Frank Lever, Lexiugton'a gifted pon, was the first candidate to be introduced to the audi-nco Mr. Lever was in good form and voice ... - and he vigorously attacked the Republican policies Ho claimed that as it was not alone his fight for Lexington's interest and Lexington's honor, therefore it was the duty of every citizen to stand shoulder to shoulder with him and give him their warm aDd undivided support at the polls. He gave an account of his stewardship and had stood by all his promises and did all he could while he was a member oJ too ijegismiure for those he represented and if tbey would seDd him to CoDgress be would there do all that he could for the betterment of the condition of his constituency. He. related his connection with Dr. Stokes and contended that this practical familiarity with the aims and purposes of the dead Congressman better fitted him for the duties of a Congressman. All the candidates were capable and competent men aDd the interests of the District would not suffer no mat- j ter who was nominated and if he was the one to be left at home be would leave the campaign with that same good feeling toward them all with which he entered it His speech wa8 received with liberal applause. Hon. Thomas F. Brantley, of Orangeburg, the next speaker, opened hi9 remarks by condemning Mr. Lever's claim that he represented Lexington county's claims aud said that such a conteuicn was narrow; that he did not claim to represent his county alone, but entire 7th District. He had been in one of the departments at Washington, but had lost bis position on account of taking the canvass for Bryan and free silver X?STfer being forewarned by Mr. Carlisle that such would be the result if he weDt to West Virginia aDd made j speeches. His speech upon the ' whole was very good aud was well received by his friends there. Judge Buchanan followed in a straight forward account of his posi- I tioD. He gave an account of himself as a legislator, as the Attorney General aDd as a Judge. He had betn instrumental in the adoption of some important measures tending toward the betterment of the white people. He also referred to Mr. Lever's claim to the support of Lexington. If thi3 was to be a battle between the n/Minfiofl flift canvuKH mi/rht as well be brought to a clos-c aud everything ; be turned over to Mr. Brantley, because his was the largest county numerically. He then discussed National issues arid arraigned the Bo- , publican party for fostering trusts . and monopolies and ably upheld the time honored principles of the party. His speech was an able oDe and he made friends there. At tbe , conclusion of the Judge's speech : dinner was announced and the peo-1 pie went to the tables to supply the wants cf the inner n ao. r Aftf r dinner Maj jt Howell, of C >1leton, wa* presented to the audience. He gave a bri.f outline of his services to the D mncretic party since * the troublous and d-ingeroua dns of " i the "Red Shirts" up to the pre.<-ent j ' time He had betn the County j Chairman of the Democratic party ; 1 of Colleton county ever since 1870. ! 1 He then turned his attention to the discussion of National issues, occupjing the same position a3 thai; stated at the opening meeting at Sumter. He opposed the ship sub I sidy bill, a R}ttem of protective fcmff, expansion and imperialism ?s practiced by. McKiuiey's administration. He favortd tho free rural mail 1 delivery and should he be sent to 1 Congress it would find in him a warm friend and a zealous supporte;; be favored the government digging tho Nicaraguan canal and claimed that it ' - ~ - n ? j it. would be of vast oeneni 10 tot South in building up and maintain- 1 ing her commercial interests, it would also be the means of developing the ports of the South. He then closed amid applause. The last speaker was Mr. E. D. Smith, of Sumter, who opened by cluiming that he was the only farmer among the candidates?the Judge could go back on the bench and draw his salan; Mr. Brantley could lesume his lucrative practice; that Major Howell was a fine lawyer of the Colleton bar, and enjoyed a large practice his little friend Lever 1 could go back to bis home in the ' Dutch Fork and ei j )y the sweets ot 1 private life; while he, if he weie de- 1 feated, wouid have to go to the poor house. He gave the country north j of the Mason and Dixon line hail Columbia, happy land. He then ! dwcussed National issues. His position on these questions has already been stated in these columns. His speech was interspered with wit and humor and his laughable acacdotes took well with the crowd. He perhaps leceived more applause than | any of the other candidates. The Palmetto State Brass Band j furnished the music for the occasion | and it was good mueie too, which was enjoyed by all. i Toe exercises of the day were brought to a close by short addresses from Mr. John Bell Towill and T. C- , Stuikie, Esq, candidates for the j House of Kepresentativee. Dr. Shuler, the other candidate, was not present.
