Announces Candidacy and Indicates High Standard of Politics. Columbia, Sept. 26.-Richard I. Manning, of Sumter, has issued a statement calling upon the people of South Carolina to get together on a platform of principles, pleading for honest primary elections and for a business administration of the affairs of the State. Advocating strict enforcement of existing party rules as to the prima ries, Mr. Manning takes the stand that there should be just such amendments to the rules as will give every white man In the State, not dis qualified by constitutional or statu tory provisions, the right to vote, and will prevent any man from voting more than once in a primary. "No man with proper self-respect I and sense of right would want an of fice acquired by fraud," states Mr. Manning, "so that what I am plead ing for is honest elections, the result of such elections to be the expression of the will of the voters, Independent ly cast and honestly counted. "I shall certainly be a candidate in thc approaching primaries for Gover nor of South Carolina. "Unless it is forced upon me, I shall not recognize the existence of two factions in the Democratic party in this State. My own belief is that the people of the State aro tired of strife, and that the time has come when the interests of all our people will be advanced by getting together on a platform of principles, adminis tering the government along business lines, looking to the upbuilding of the educational, agricultural and com mercial development, of the State.

Mrs. Bucklew told a reporter she never had loved her husband, and that slie married him only because she could not get along with her stepmother, and thought Bucklew would provide her wp h a comforta ble home. Her stepmother made her feel as if her home was almost a prison, she said.
