"WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER IS. 1901.
Tbe vote received by Lexington's
brainy and gallant young champion
for Congressman from the Seventh
!.i - ? iVn nnnnfioo wtlifth
1/ibtrict in ilic uiui.4 wvuuvtvw -?...?
compose the District, is indeed flatter
ing and very encouraging as it indicates
that the voters in them ap
preciate the justness of Lexington's
claims and that they are libera!
and patriotic enough to accord her
that for which she is so earnestly
contending?the election of Mr }
Lever, her standard bearer, to Congress.
The warm support given Mr.
Lever by the people of his native
county, by whom his private and
public record is fully knowD, is a
strong and unassailable endorsement.
nf thftf. record and an eloquent
expression of the esteem and confidence
which his home folk have in
him. No other candidate in the first J
primary received near so large a majority
in his home county as Mr.
Lever did iu his and we wish to emphasize
this fact because, having entrusted
her banner into bis keeping,
the people upheld him in his struggle
with such strength and enthusi
asm as to inspire confidence in ins i
ability and devotion to ibe interests
of the people to uphold and maintain
tbe honor and integrity of the district
so that in tbe second primary,
having no longer a candidate of their
own to support, they will roll up big
majorities for Mr. Lever.
While Lexington did well in the
first primary she can and must do
better in tbe second. The time has
come when, for the honor of grand
old Lexington, it is tbe bounden duty
of every vot^r to not only go to the
polls and vote for Lever on the 24th
but to pull off his coat, go to work at
once and shake the bushes to get out
the full vote of the county. Out of
a voting population of over 3,000 only
2,068 voted in the la6t primary. Where
are the other voters ? They must be
induced to go to the polls on the 24th
and vote for Lever. If the people of
Lexington will but do their duty
they will be honored by having a son
of the county represent the District
in the halls of Congress.
Keplying to Mr. Brantly's card
published elsewhere in this issue,
we desire to state that Mr. Lever is
away from home and cannot be
reached to receive his answer in
time for publication in this issue.
The friends of Mr. .Lever indignantly
deny that he is circulating any such
report as claimed but some of his
friends are probably doing so, having
good grounds for so doing in the
statements made by Mr. Brantley
himself. Ia his card published in
the State of St ptember lthh, he
says: "I was willing to pay it ['be
assessment] if the other candidates
paid, and I requested, him, [Mr.
Wiggins] my friend, to pay my as
sessmeut for me if necessary and
draw on me for the amount," and
theD, after tending his check, if it whs
conditionally, he went into a caucus
with the other candidates without
stating that he had offered to pay the
assessment. He now says: '*! have
never paid or offered to pay the
Berkeley county assessment." There
is a direcet contradiction in the t wo
statements. One or the other must
be wrong. It is a self evident fact
that his friend Mr. Harmon of Berkley
considered that the assessment
had been paid as he so stated in his
card published in The Echo and
Press. The card of Mr. Harmon
published in this issue doe3 not state
that there was no offer of the check
before the agreement net to pay
was reached, but simpiy that he was
"mistaken as to the sending of the
cheek." The conclusion is, therefore,
that he did offer to pa y the assessment
and nothing is to be gain by
denying the fact.
Mr. Lever is on his way to Congress
with his baggage checked
through and therefore cannot stop to
contradict anything that Mr. Brantley
might say.
The Board of County Commission
ers of Richland county have been
putting steel bridges across the various
creeks in that county as fast as
the steel was received. They have
just completed a bridge with a span
of eighty-five feet across Hampton
creek on the Bluff road.
Senator McLaurin is working in
the interest of the South Carolina
and West Indian Exposition. He
has secured the cooperation of nearly
all the important government officials
at Washington.
.It is reported that J. P. Morgan,
' ? ' ' " ? i. J
me King 01 toe irusas ?uu iuc muoi
skillful manipulator of finances of his
day, has succeeded in purchasing
large coal fields in West Virginia.
Collector of Internal Revenue, E.
A. Webster, died at his home in
Orangeburg on September 17th,
after haviDg been ill several months.
The Seaboard Air Line will appeal
to the Supreme Court from the decision
of Judge Gary in the Sidney
park case.
To the Voters of Lexington.
In the short time we had to canvass
the county I found it impossible
to visit many of my friends and fellow-citizens,
much to my regret;
therefore the generous support given
me in the first primary is all the
more gratefully acknowledged and
appreciated and makes me approach
the second primary relying confidently
upon the righteous judgment
and decision of the voters of dear old
Lexington. The people always do
what is right, and it is becoming in
those who seek representative positions
to humbly bow to their decree.
I have been the off horse to the Democratic
band-wagon for lo these many
years and 1 want to try the lead J
awhile, but if you think best to leave [
me where I am I will continue to j
pull as faithfully in the future as I
have in the past. Tnanking you for
all past favors and asking your continued
confidence and support, I re- j
main, your humble servant,
J. L. Shuler.
FIGURES TELL THE STORY. <
i
1213 Is Lever's Great Majority in His
Own County Over Ail Competitors.
Brantley's Suprisingly Small
Vote in His County. Only 1
240 Majority! 1
The race for Congress has narrowed
down to two men?L ;ver and \
Brantley. Judge Buchanan, Smith ,
and How* 11, i ll patriotic and able i
men having failed to get in the second ,
race and the fight is now between
two young men who are ambi-ious
and bright. Let us lock at. ihem
from a comparative point < f view:
la point of intelligence Lever is in
every respfct equal if rot the superior
of Brantley; in point of education
Lever's equals Brantley's if it does
not surpass it; in point of scudious .
ness and attentiveDess to politics ai.d
in point of knowledge of the great ,
issues Lever does not have a superior
in the District in point of ago there
is practically iio diffi-renc(; i?J poi:?t
of legislative experience Lever's
equals Brantley's; in point of Congressional
experience, the very work
to be done, Lever has five year* while
Brantley has Done at all. This is ,
important to the District?experiei.ce
in the work is what the people are
wantiDg and can get by voting for
Lever. His close affiliation with Dr.
Stokes for five yean-; the fact that
for five months ho had entire
charge of nearly all the Congressional
work, and practically all cf it fur
eighteen moDthe?his knowledge of
that work which was Itfo unfinished
in the departments, the fact
that he was relied upon to do
all the departmental work, puts him
in a position to know more about the
woik left undone tbau 31r. jbrsntiey
caD possibly know, for this reason the
people wi.l support bitn; in point of ;
popularity at home where men are i
known. Lever is by far the more
popular mau as is shown by the j
majority each received in his home <
county. Tak* Lever's county and his
m?j ?iity leaches 1,213, while Mr. j
Biantley's majority in his own county i
is only 240, these are figures which
will put people to thinking. The
question naturally arises "Why is |
Brantley so very weak in his own
county."
Orangeburg has had the place for
eighteen years, and it does rtem the
tiuie has come when there should be I
a change and some other county <
given a chance. 1
L^xingtou has never had it, and i
we feel nnr.fid^nl thnf. Tif-vpr will win. i
bin own county will give him at least I
2000 majority ia the next election. i
He has never done any mud BliDg- ]
iDg, has made a straight, honerable
race upon his own merits and not
upo.i the demerits of his opponents.
His rt cord is clean his -ability unquestioned
and his devotion to the
people undoubted.
Lot every man turn out on the 24th,
and roll up an overwhelming maj irity
for Lever.

Mr. Brantley Explains. (
I learn with surprise that Mr. ]
Lever and his friends are stiil endeavoring
to use against ine in th*- t
? - ? o o
campaign for co*>?re?<% a disfor*ed
version of lbe Berkeley county assessment
incident.
As my statement of fhh matter
seems Dot to have been entirely understood
in-the District, I vneh to
restate emphatically that I b?ve
never paid or r ff?red to pav the l>?rke f
ley County assessment When fiibt t
notified by the county commi?t? ?>, I ?
wrote Mr. Wiggins," secretary of tbe ]
committee, that I was willing to pay (
if necessary, but suggested that tb^ t
assessment was rvccssive and that it J
would be more equitable to divide i
o mr.-ri rr t li c> r>a n/^i t *.? ! I A #-Y r r??i bA r if
the election and I would b9 willing
to pay my share. This letter was
written before the at>jeement was
reached by the candidal*s that no (
assessment would be paid subsequent- ,
ly I refused to pay any part of the
assessment.
On the 7th day of September I
received a telegram notifying me of J
the issuance of Major Howell's cir- f
cular bassed on the card of Mr. Harmon
in The Echo and Press. My i
opponent, Mr. A. Frank Lever was in J
my office in Orangeburg on that day,
and I discussed the matter fully with ]
him, making to him substantially the
same statement and explanation of | \
the matter as in this card. Mr. Lever !
said he was satisfied with my denial
and would correct the story wherever
he heard it in his county. Major
Howell based his action on a publish- )
ed statement, at that time undenied '
and which had it been true would 1
have justified his course. In continu- 3
ing the story Mr. Lever had no such ]
? "? f IT J
excuse. 1 Lave today iorwaruea a j :
copy of this caid to Mr. Lever in I J
order that be may Lave lull opportu | ^
nity to reply thereto before the pri- <r
mary if he cares to do so. Iain inclin- ?
ed to tbiuk, however, lhat the matter 1
will ecd here. If Mr. Lever has forgotten
his conveisation with me, and
is now unsatisfied with my emphatic ;
statement, the following correspond- j
*nce will.show bow the mailer stands
and will set it at re~t.

Doar Si.-: I have your letter of the

in The E .:ho and Press and
sigued by me in which you 6fated
tnai there is a mistake as to the
coirectue&s of the statement as to
sending a check for $40 00. I have
u quired into the matter, and I find
upon investigation, hat, there was a
misunderstanding between the eec
retary Mr. C M. Wiggins ai d myself
in a convention relative to assessments,
and that you did not send
check as I had thought, and further
that jou have not paid anything
to * aids assessments in this county.
I am sorry thi3 mistake occurred and
J take pleasure in correcting same
and give you permission to u-e this
letter in any way you deem proper,
in justice to yourself.

To the People of Lexington:
Let me express to you the approbation
I and my friends feel for the
splendid support given me on last
ruesday.
Lexington did herself proud. I
feel that she voted for me because
she felt that she was voting for herself.
It was her first chance for a
Congressman and she took advant>era
nf it and crnvp liprsf-lf a larop ma
o-; ? o
joiity. My majority at home was
>ver 1200 while my opponent's maorityat
his homo was only 240.
i'hey have had it eighteen years and
Irawn $00,000. L?t f.hem give Lexngton
a chance at it for once in her
listcry.
I want lo ask every man who eees
his to go to work and get every
?oter to turu out on Tuesday next,
M'b of this month. Don't let any- j
hing except sickness or death keep !
rou at home. Your county is calling |
iou and I feel sure you will respond, j
jet everything be laid aside and all j
oin in the fight being made for j
;rand old L' xington. Turn out and 1
jet your f.iends to do likewise. We
;re very much encouraged and if Lexngton
will just turnout we will win.
Your servant,
A. F. Lever.
