I he Lexington Dispatch ???? c G. M. HARMAN. Editor and Publisher. 1 LEXINGTON. S. C.. r WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 1901. \ MATTER OF RIGHT AND JUSTICE. J Because for the first time io the r history of the county LexiDgton hss g seen fit to put forward one of he) ^ brightest aDd most intelligent soDf- j as a candidal* f -r ibeseat iu Congress g made vacant by the untimely deatl f of Dr. J Wm Stoke?, some of the 1 otber candidates lor mis posuioi j have raited the cry if sectionalism ? and are endeavoring to weaken Mr. Lever's chances# of receiving the nom ination. ( Now, prithee, on what grounds ( must Lexington press the claims oi < her favorite son ? All the candidate* | are men of ability, the nomination oi , either one of them would not affi.ct j the material interests of the District; , on National issues there is a rematk- ] nmnrn lllflm nnf OVOr. I auto UUBUIUIllJ UUIJUq ruvui) <4W V , upon a siDgle one of the great ( National issues wbich are now eu gagiDg tbe public attention do they ' dffer. Tbe hrst one who speaks j announces bis platform and tbeotber ( four cbime in with the refrain o! ( "me too", hence there can be no ( choice of men or measures and there is nothing left for tbe voter to make his choice between them but the , claims of tbe county from which thcandidate came cf having the honor of naming the candidate. We notice, theiefore, that out Sumter coniemporaiy is urging tb* nomination of Mr. E. D Smith, solely on the ground that be is a sot of Sumter. The Patriot is making the same claim aDd upon identically the fame ground for Mr Brantley, namely, that he is an Orangeburg man and should, for this reason receive the support of the county. The Press and Standard is urgiDg the voters of Colleton to turn out aDd vote for Major Howell on no otbei consideration tbau that be is a Colleton man, then where is the iinpro 4 priety or the sectionalism in Mr 1 Lever8 claim for suppoifc on the 1 ornnnd that he is a Lexinedonian ? ' ? ^ Lexington's claim to name the 1 candidate for this position at this ( particular time is so plainly appear ant that it caDnot help but be 1 recognized and appreciated. A1 1 though the only county in the Die ( trict having had all along a large Democratic majority she has failed 1 to press her claims and has given the ' fall measure of her strength to a * candidate named by another county ' This was not. because she had no son 1 who was fitted by education, expe- ' rience and moral worth to worthily discbarge the duties of a Congress ' man, but from the fact that the en- 1 vironments were such that the most 1 perfect harmony in the ranks of the 1 Democracy were absolutely essential 1 to success. The times were such that A * t V-k rt t 4l\ A m Aof AA n ' 'I an UMTPWIJ tu?l bUC Uliuuct V/AU Hon was necessary to maintain white supremacy; and evpn the faintest ' shadow of disaffection could not be tolerated without b-ung dangerous to 1 I he interest of the Congressman in holding his seat in a Republican j house at. Washington. F?>r these reasons Lexington patriotically ( waived her right for the time being j and permitted'the otber coupties of j the District to Darae the candidate, . hence we find that Charleston, of , J which Berkeley and portions of Dorchester were parts, sent O'Connor and Brawley; OraDgeburg selected Dib ( ble, and Izlnr, and Stoker; Sumter, wbich was then in another District, conferred the honor upon John S j Richardson; and as to C >Heton and that portioD of Richland within the ( District, while Dot having one of their sons to represent t.hem, enj ryed that j protection that Charleston and the otber counties received by Lexing- J ( ton's large Democratic vote which , was the ody bulwaik that stood be { tween tbem and negro domination j Now Lexington feels that she can consistently and appropriately ask the other counties to give ber that j support which is nectary to have ( Mr. Lever elected to Congress. Mr Lever possesses all the ability necessary to make a useful and efficient v k. Representative. His experience is wide, bis perseverance indomitable { and his energy tireless. Id asking support for Mr. Lever we are codJB ( ? -detfFtbat not one of the other candi ? dates can possibly r< fleet more credit ( upon the District than will the can ( didate from Lexington YouDg and ? ambitious with his life's history yet \ to write he will bring all the gifts 1 bestowed upon him by a generous " nature to bear to make the pages of <t that history glisten and sparkle with t honorable transactions and measures ( tending toward the peace, happiness 1 and well being of his constituency as c regards their temporal and moral i conditions in life. 1 The probability is that the Septein 1 ber term of court will consume four j weeks, just what we expected when I the June term was postponed. The c dockets of both courts are heavy, r almost in a state of congestion. 1 Judge R C. Watts will preside. i The Match Trust is not afraid of strikes. The more the merrier. 8 As an evidence of the standing if Mr. Lever at his own home and nnoug bis own people, we meD^im he interesting fact that in the priaary election last year Spiiog Hill, lis home box, gave him 82 votes ont if 90 for a Representative, and Peak, vhich is within a few miles of the jlace where he was born and reared, jave him 80 votes oat of 98, and the vhole county the largest vote evei jiven a candidate. These figures (peak el quently of the great esteenj tad confidence this deseivedly pcpu ar young man occupies among the DeoDle who know his moral charactei - I ind intellectual ability best. Iu the matter of the Neal pardor: jovernor McSwceney has yielded *> ihe wishes of thousands of South Carolinians who have either signed a petition asking for bis pardon or who would have willingly done so aad an opportunity been given. Ii will be remembered that Colonel Seal was convicted upon a legal technicality for failing to turn over > i 3 J. L.:_ .??? money in ms lisnu so uib buwccoui within the time prescribed by law. The trial was a most remaik-ible one n that it developed into a clear case )f persecution on the part of the prosecution. The action of the Gov 3rnor has been p'mott universally rem mended? the Attorney General md the Columbia State being the -wo most prominent exceptions.

The Campaign Meetings Resumed. On Wednesday the campaigners ipptared at Summit much refreshed n body aDd mind aDd more de ermined to come off conquerors iu he battle of ballots for a seat in the ower house of the General Assembly >f the State. The business interest of Summit 8 at a stand still, but little in the mercantile line beiDg done. Lumber, irossties and naval stores are its backbone and mam stays, and at . * . /v? .1 ! ?? Limes tiie tramc in tnese commodities ire quite lively. The place is eligibly situated, having good roads ind a good back country to support it and it is a very desirable location for a man with capital and enterprise back of him. It is notrd for its boalthfulness, being the highest point between Columbia and Augusta as its name indicates. The people of the surrounding country are thrifty and God loving. There was only a small audience at tbis place. Mr. Paul H. Craps was called to the chair and introduced Mr. T. C. Sturkie. He covered the same ground already reported, md bis speech was given close attention. He was followed by Mr. John Bell Towill in a happy little talk in which he reiterated his position on questions of interest, and it was well received. Dr. J. L. Shuler was the last candidate to be introduced and be entertained his audience with his inimitable wit and humor and put his hearers in a better condition to jnjoy the barbecued dinner which was mnounced as being ready at the conclusion of the Doctor's BDcech. After dinner Dr. W. H. Tiininer a^u of Batesburg, was called for and responded in a well time speech. He explained the workings of the various Jepartments of the State government ind said that the people need look 'or no reduction of taxes as the State government was being run a3 co jomically as it possibly could be without impairing its efficiency. lie ?aid that Clemson College received ts revenues from the Morrill fund, ind the experimental fund, appropriated by the National government for specific purposes aDd from the tag ;ax on fertilizers. He told many >ther interesting facts in connection with the intricate workings of the stale onverninent. He said that he attended the meeting with no inten,ion of making a speech, his sole purpose beiDg to form the accjuaintance >f and mingle with the people of his dopted county among whom he had ;ast bis lot for weal or woe. This mded the entertainment for the day ind the people returned to their lomes much edified by what had heen told them. Friday found the candidate aggregation at Chapin prepared to instruct he neonle on economic ouestions. 3bapin is a thriving and progressive ittle town, which has often been sailed the Pearl of Dutch Fork. It s delightfully situated on the Coumbia, Newberry and Laurens rail oad, about 20 miles from Columbia. We were pleased to notice that its >eople believe in improving the place )y enlarging its store houses, its iwellings and its streets. Her busi- . less men are men of push and thev teep things humming around them n a way that gives the place a lively md pleasing appearance. Mr. S. J. Clark acted as the pre- i iding officer and wielded the gavel J as one familiar with its use. The three candidates for the Legidature were present. They spoke in order as named, Dr. Shuler, Mr. Sturkie and Mr. Towill. Each of the speak ers went ( ver about the same ground that they covered at the previous meetings and nothing new wbs brought out except Dr. Sbuler, w] o opposed the proposed Soldier^ Home and said that the old veterans should be allowed to enjoy their small pit tance around tbe fireside of loved ones where tender hands could administer to the waDts of declining ige and brighten the few remaining days of their pilgrimage on earth iD tbe presence of tho^e for whom they bore the brunt of battle. He favored a bjard of pardons which would re lieve the Governor of much responsibility. Mr. Slurkie also opposed tbe Soldier's Home. Tbe meeting at ]>mo was only moderately attended aDd our old friend, Mr. J. W. Dreher, presided. The distinguishing mark of thimppfinnr was the close attention with which they followed each speaker which was very encouraging to the candidates and they roso to the demands of the occasion and waxed more eloquent as they proceeded. They stated the platform on which they were standing and explained each plank in that platfoim. Each candidate made friends at thesemett ings and wore grestly encouraged by the results of their speaking. Irrao is quite a lively little place and is on the upgrade to success. Considerable business is carried on in the lumber and wood interest. The Dext and last meeting will be at Brookland on the night of Sept. 7tb, and on the 10th of that month the election will take place when every voter is expected to go to the polls and cast his vote for Lever for Congress and his choice of the candidates for the Legislature.

Five men are dead, one is dyiDg, and two a1? serioDsly hurt by reason of an accident on the new Gongaree bridge being built by the Southern railroad. From what could be learned this morning the fearful accident was the result of nobody's fault, but was just one of those things that are liable to occur at almost anytime in such enterprises. Reports in the city today greatly exaggerated the accident, though it was bad enough under any circumstances. The dead men are not Columbians, but that detracts nothing from the horror of the result. Two bridge girders about seventy feet long, and weighing about fourteen tons each, fell from the Southern railroad trestle leading over the Cougaree about 9 o'clock this morniDg, and as a result four men are dead, one is dying and two are seiiously hurt. The dead men are: Casselberry, white; Alston, Tobias and Reese, colored. "Sam," a colored man from Anderson, is dying from injuries re- j ceived; David Styles, colored, had his leg and both arras broken, and Henry Coleman, also colored, was struck in the head and seriously hurt. Just how the accident occurred no one will ever be able to tell, but a bridge builder gave the following as the most plausible explanation. The t L?U fJUUCia ?U!C IJl l^tDU UU Cfltu DiUC of the track and held in place by blocks and hemp rope. The rain Saturday afternoon caused the rope to slip some. This morning the work on the bridge caused one girder to lose its balance and fall over against the other, with the above result. Coleman and Styles, who were the only ones who went down and still live, tell how the rest were killed Casselberry, the white man, was struck by the first beam and was instantly killed. Alston and Tobias were hit by the timber and, also, instantly killed. Reese was carried with the beam and is still held.under the water by it. The negro Sam, from Anderson, (the last name could not be learned) was struck in the back by flying tim- J 1 _ CI J 1 . .1 1 Ders, as were oty:es ana uoieman. Every effort will be made to recover * the body of lieese as soon as the other j beam is taken from the track. The track and trestle are not dam- I aged any and trains will be run in this afternoon. Coroner Green went down as soon as be heard of the accident, but it is j thought the inquest will be held by I the Lexington coroner. The man reported as dying was ; later in the afternoon reported as j dead. This will make the list of dead five men. Asthma Cure Free!
