Mr. Caughman Presents His Platform. To the Democratic Voters of Lexington County: On account of the very limited time given the candidates for county supervisor duriug the campaign, which has made it impossible to discuss issues and present our claims, I take this method of giving you an opportunity to learn of some of the things I stand for; and which, if elected, I shall endeavor to put into effect. First. I stand for an honest and economical administration of the county's affairs; and I shall strive at all times to run the government on the lowest possible basis consistent with good service. Second. I am in favor of operating a truck farm on tho county's plantation at the poor house. Instead of raising cotton I believe in growing Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, turnips, ? ^ /\nnrnn??i An /-v ? li Pa f a K a aiiu. onc uiuci ucvvdoaiius kj L JHC IU nsed on tlie chaingang to feed the convicts and stock. In this way I am satisfied that hundreds of dollars could be saved the taxpayers every year, and the expenses cut down to an appreciable degree. Third. To further economize I am in favor of disposing of the saddlehorse and milch cow on the chaingang, and am unalterably opposed to raiging large numbers of hogs on the chaingang at the present high prices of feed stuffs?at at the expense of the general taxpayers. I firmly believe that if yon elect me yoar supervisor I will be able to cut the expenses of the chaingang almost one-half. Fourth. I am in favor of keeping up the roads by contract after the chaingang has put them in proper condition. This is the only way, in my opinion, that the roads can be kept up at a nominal cost. Fifth. I am in favor of giving each township in the county?whether that township be in the rich and thickly settled Dutch Fork or the remotest part of the sand hills?its prorata share of the chaingang's work, as the law provides. I can promise nothing more than to see that the law in this particular i9 carried out to the letter. Sixth. I wish to correct a wrong impression which has gone out among the people of the county to the effect that in holding the position of county j commissioner I have been signing the < many "extravagant claims" that have ; been paid off. As a matter of fact, a j J commissioner has absolutely nothing to do with signing claims, and during the four years I have been on the board I have not signed a single claim. In conclusion, I wish to thank the good people of Lexington county for j the confidence they have always reposed in me in the past. My public and private life is before you, it is an open book; and if yon see fit to elect me your supervisor on next Tuesday, I assure you that I will give you the best service of which my experience, my head and my heart are capable. Very respectfully, James Caughman. August 20, 1912. A Card My business and home affairs have been such that I have not been able to canvass the county thoroughly as I intended and would like to say to my friends and supporters that I will appreciate their support and influence in my behalf and if elected I guarantee to give entire satisfaction to one and all of Lexington county. Geo. A. Shealy. August 17th, 1912. Barbecue at Hilton, S. C. I will furnish a first class Barbecue with refreshments at Hilton, S. C. on the 24th of August, 1912. The candidates will be there and Gov. Blease and Judge Jones will be present on that day, the public is cordially invited to com e. John H.

C. V lif WW. Corni Dry Goo A NICE For Lexington* Dispatch Serious sickness in my family has prevented me from attending the regular appointments of the Executive Committee. For this reason I have been unable to meet many of the people. It was with great reluctance that I consented to enter the race for the legislature, I wa9 importuned by many good people in many different places in the county, but not until my own home people said I mu9t offer, did I yield. The probability now is that I will not get out any more before the people. Generally, however, the people know my competency, but I am sorry that I have not been able to meet the people and giye them a chance to ask me about the issues before U3. I staDd today a9 I have for 25 years, the exponent of economy. ][ have practiced iii my home life, advocated in all public places, and shall endeavor to do so in the 9tate, if the people decide I shall go to the house. Being very grateful to all my friends, and assuring them that, though not neglecting my present duties, I shall use my best endeavor to represent the people of my county, if elected. I leave the election in your hands, having confidence that the people will do what is best. Again thanking you sincerely, E. L. Lybrand. Subscribe to The Dispatch.
