To the Democratic Voters: I beg leave to withdraw my announcement as a candidate for the legislature. The announcement was made on the persuasion of friends and without mature consideration on my part, and while I have no cause to complain at the encouragement I have received, I have arrived at the conclusion that I am not fitted by experience or training to assume the responsibilities of this important position at this time. Although I have reason to believe that I would get a great niau> vui?? possibly enough to secure my election ?I am now persuaded that my duty to my fellow citizens and myself, requires that I relieve the situation of such embarrassment as might be caused by my candidacy, in order that the voters may have the least possible difficulty in selecting as their representatives the best material in sight. Thanking my friends for the many kind expressions they have made to me and in my behalf, I am, Very respectfully, C. P. Lowrance. ; Announcements.

VIIIIIIVMV w. ...... ion County To the Voters of South Carolina In Indorsement of the Candidacy of W. Boyd Evans For Railroad Commissioner. His grandfather, one of Nature's noblemen: his father, a gallant Confederate soldier, and he a worthy son. To the Voters of South Carolina: No public question of recent years has elicited more common interest in South Carolina, and, indeed, in the whole country, than that of the regulation and restriction of great corporations and combinations within the bound of the law. Of these great corporations none have so close a connection with our great material welfare and interests as the railroads, for upon them depend our intercourse and commerce with the outer world. They are the very fiber of our material growth and development as a State and a people. By the maintenance of just and equitable laws between our people and the railroads meir puuill' scuanw van creatures of the law be rendered most serviceable to the State as a whole, and assist in the progressive march which the state has begun, and at the same time yield the best returns to those who own their stocks. In the light of these principles our State has enacted laws providing for a Railroad Commission, composed of representative men, to be elected from her people, whose duty it is to regulate and adjust the passenger and freight rates of the respective roads within the State with justice and impartiality, assuring to the people equal rights to all and special privileges to none. That the spirit of this law may be fulfilled it is expedient and necessary that this commission, in whose hands lies more of our material welfare and prosperity than any other department of our government, should be composed hot only of men of the highest integrity, but of education, experience and tried business capacity: men who by profession and training are able to cope with the finest business and legal talent that money can buy. Realizing the necessity and utility of a most vigorous administration of the affairs of this Commission, and its establishment upon a stable business basis, and, that these great ends can only be obtained by maintaining the highest standard in the personnel of its members, we, the undersigned citizens of Marion county, present for your attention the name of Mr. W. Boyd Evans, a man hailing from our midst, and whom we believe possesses those high attributes which qualify him to meet the obligations of the office to which he aspires with the greatest efficiency and honor. He is full of energy, progressive in his ideas and aggressive in advancing them; a Mason, | a Pythian and Odd Fellow, he is in i close touch and sympathy with all that tends toward the development of his fellow man and native State. We feel that a word settine out what manner of man he is and what class of men , he sprung from will not be amiss. In a recent history of Marlon coun- ( ty, written by the Honorable W. W. , Sellers, Esq., he has this to say of W. ' Boyd Evans's grandfather, Nathan Evans, and his father, William Baker Evans: "Nathan Evans was one of Nature's noblemen; had great, good sense, was energetic and upright in every respect; always lent his ear to a tale of suffering; had a kind and sympathetic heart, and would help his neighbor in dis- ' tress, if it was in his power, often to : his own injury; he injured himself and . family by becoming surety for others. He lived on his splendid farm, which he managed to keep, till his death; he was a very popular man, yet he never aspired to the honors of office but once, and then not of his own motion, but being urged by his numerous friends he became a candidate for Representative in the State Legislature in 1858, and though the contest was heated, he was triumphantly elected at the head of the ticket, and served a term in the House. Faithful to his trust, he retired from public life in the full confidence of his people? he loved his home and family too well; pursuits of home life were more congenial to his nature. "William Baker Evans, W. Boyd Evans's father, was a captain in the war, a true and valiant soldier. In one of the battles of Virginia (Cold Harbor) he was badly wounded, shot through one of his lungs?which at the time was thought to be mortal, but to every one's surprise he recovered. After recovery he returned to his command and continued there to the surrender of Johnson's army, 26th April, 1865. Captain Evans is a very worthy citizen, a man of good morals, and a good man in his family?in short, he is a high-toned gentleman; he is a , father." W. Boyd Evans is the son of this , gallant Confederate soldier. He is essentially a self-made man, for his i father lacking the means to bear the | rt' V? I r? oaIlorro tlnn ViO CAj;rnoco wt 1110 vvncgc VUUVHUVMI ?V met those expenses himself, unaided by dint of hard work and untiring perseverance. While still at college, Mr. Evans was elected, against sharp competition, to fill the position of Secretary of the Judiciary Committee of the Constitutional convention of 1895, and in that position exhibited such marked ability as to attract the attention of William K. Ellerbe, who afterwards becoming Governor of the State, appointed him as his Private Secretary. Mr. E"ans held this responsible position with the utmost satisfaction to his chief, and during the last desperate illness of Governor Ellerbe, covering the greater part of a year, the duties and responsibilities of that high office devolved almost entirely upon his shoulders, and he acquitted himself with ability and dignity. During the performance of these arduous duties, however, he found time to enter upon and complete the study of law at the South Carolina , College, and has since the expiration ' of his term practiced his profession in J Columbia. After the return of our regiments from the war with Spain, Mr. Evans, 1 discovering that these soldiers could, under the national laws, claim further awards for their services, entered claims with the War Department in ' Washington for back pay to South Carolina soiaiers, coneciea anu lurncu over to them upwards of twenty thou- 1 sand dollars, which, but for his sagacity and energy, would have been lost to those brave fellows. For a period of nearly ten years, Mr. Evans has been connected, in one capacity or another, with the legisla- 1 tive department of our government, , acting as secretary to the various committees of the two Houses. His residence in Columbia, the headquarters of the Railroad Commission, ( renders Mr. Evans a peculiarly fitting ] choice for the position to which he ] aspires, inasmuch as it would give the j Commission a resident member at ( headquarters, thus keeping the office always accessible to those having bus iness before it. In the light of the facts and reasons enumerated above, we have no hesitation in recommending, and do recommend gladly, the candidacy of Mr. W. 1 Boyd Evans. William M.
