Io [Letter to the Neges and C durier. do COUMIA, February 12.-It is very th early ins the politcal year, but already all the chances of the candidates for the w Democratic nominations for State oices and for Congress .are under dis-A cttsslon, and there is in the field at goodly array of Carolinians who will ronsent to serve the State and their to country if they are required to do so. fo In other words, In the political par st hi ucc lance of the dav1 ''They are in the ae hands of their ti ends." - The probabilities are that there will w be no opposition whatever to the re- sI nomination of Governor Thompson. t A nutuber of articles on the subject t have appeared in the county news- o papers, but nowhere has there been cc any suggestion of opposing the renomi- ci llation of the present Governor, who t:as given general satisfaction by the courtesy, intelligence and the un wavering fidelity with which Ie has disdharged the duties of his important office. The single objection made to " hin Is that of the Abbeville Press and P Banner, which does not want any e man as Governor who is an enthusiast N on the subject of popular education. ti There Is little feeling of this sort in the h, State and what is treated by the Press ft and Banner as an objection is, in the " eyes of most people, a strong recom inendation. If it were not, the Gov- " ernor's opinions on the subject would not be an objection to him for the rca son that the Governor has no power cc whatever In the matter. The State I Constitution makes it obligatory to support the public schools, and it Is " (le Legislature which has control of the subject, except so far as the CotI- of stitution prescribes the Ininimnut tax that shall be levied. It had been hint- ca ed that Governor Thompson might be- 0f come a candidate for Congress this h year, but there is the best authority t for saying that under no circumstances will he accept the nomination for Con- cc gres, and that he will consider it a high honor if he shall be remioninated and re-elected as Governor. pa There will be considerable stir in w, three of the Democratic Congressional' hi Districts this summer. It is no secret th that Congressman John it. Eviis, of A the Fourth District, is in bad health de and lie will not be a cttdldate for re'- 11 election. The State has no J etter rep- s1 resentative in Congress than', Colonel A Evins, and his inability to serve the it State any longer will be a serious pub- te lie loss. There is no doubt that he has th won the respect and confidence of the hi Riepublicans as well as Democrats as c san able and a hard working tmember of ht Congress. lie is now serving his ft" tierim and would probablv have tb been re'lirinated If ho could have . h been a candtiii 'T'here are several th condidates in pros1 't.
