SENATORIAL CAMPAIGNERS <
Large Meetings at Pickens and Green- j
ville, Friday and Saturday.
There were from 1,500 to 2,000 peo- !
pie at the Pickens meeting last Friday,
and the newspaper estimates 01 me
crowd at the Greenville meeting on
Saturday, run from 3.500 to 6,000. ]
All the correspondents concede the 1
Pickens crowd to Governor Blease by :
an overwhelming majority. Senator i
Smith was presented with a miniature <
bale of cotton and a wreath of flow- 1
ers, and Governor Blease was present- 1
ed with a basket of flowers and a i
broad brim Panama hat. Messrs. Jen- I
nings and Pollock made their usual i
speeches very much tempered, and .
there were no sensational developments.
The Greenville meeting was anything
but orderly. Indeed, for a time
it looked as if there would be a bloody
riot: but the situation passed off without
developing anything more serious >
than a few bruises.
In his speech, Senator Smith said
that his bill to curb the Wall Street
gamblers had been agreed upon in f
conference and that all that remained
to make it a law was the signature of
the president. After the senator concluded,
Governor Blease called upon c
Congressman Lever, who was present,
to stand up and answer a question. He
asked the congressman as to the stat- i
us of the bill. Mr. Lever said tnai me
bill was still in conference. There
were cheers for Blease. Then Senator ?
Smith asked Mr. Lever if it were not .
a fact that the papers of the morning
had printed a dispatch to the effect
that the differences of the two houses
had been adjusted, and Mr. Lever answered
in the affirmative. Mr. Blease
commented upon the unreliability of
the papers. Afterward the Green- (
cille News wired the Associated Press, v
which wired back a statement to the ^
effect that the statement that there v
hud been an agreement was a mis- j
take; that an agreement would be
reached immediately after the return
of Congressman Lever to Washington.
During his speech. Governor Blease
was asked by Mr. J. W. Norwood,
president of the Norwood national
bank, said to have the second largest
capital of any bank in the state; '
"How about Dr. Mcintosh?" !
At Abbeville, Governor Blease had ,
put in a good deal of his time explaining
the matter of parole of Gus A
Ritchie. He had said that Drs.
Knowlton and Mcintosh had report- (
ed Ritchie as suffering from paraly
sis. Since then Dr. Mcintosh has been
quoted as saying in a signed statement 1
that in his opinion Ritchie was feign- >
Ing paralysis and he had so reported t
to the governor. Replying to Mr.
Norwood's question the governor said: ^
"When I get to Columbia. 1 expect 1
to request Dr. Mcintosh to take a seat ?
on the stand. I will answer that ques- <
tion then and not behind his back as
a coward like you." '
"You are a damned lying 1
shouted Mr. Norwood, as he placed his
right hand on his left breast under
his coat and rushed toward the gov- 1
ernor. Governor Blease stood still. 1
Sheriff Rector, the chief of police, t
deputies and members of the crowd ,
rushed to Norwood. There was a general
closing in from all sides. Sheriff "
Rector struck one or two of his depu- i
ties and others who were trying to (
hold him, and a good many blows
were struck; but finally quiet was re- '
stored, with Norwood being held by I
the officers. The governor went on ]
with his speech and when he conelud- (
ed left the stand, followed by a large ,
portion of the crowd.
Messrs. Jennings and Pollock made 1
about their usual speeches, and after |
they had concluded. Banker Norwood
took the stand and made a bitter 1
speech, saying among other things I
that when the Mclntoslies lived in i
Newberry they would not go into the
home of the Bleases and the Bleases
could not go into the home of the Mc- 1
Intoshes. Me said that if what Dr. i
Mcintosh says is true, then Blease is .
a dirty, infamous liar, and spent some .
limo (Ipnnnnrins the aovemor.

FINLEY AND STEVENSON
Congressional Candidates Spoke at
Lancaster Last Saturday.
Lancaster, July IS.?Today in the ;
court house before an attentive and <
apparently much interested audience 1
of about 300 men and a few ladies, '
D. E. Flnley and W. F. Stevenson, candidates
for congress from the Fifth
district, eloquently proclaimed their ,
peculiar fitness and qualifications for |
the high ottice to which they aspire, i
The meeting was called to order and [
presided over by County Chairman R.
S. Stewart, who took occasion at the
outset to congratulate the Lancaster
people upon the quiet and uniformly
good behavior which always characterize
political meetings at this place,
predicting for the two candidates of
today a good and respectful hearing,
which they had.
The candidate from Cheraw, Mr.
Stevenson, was introduced. He made
a splendid speech and was well received.
He told of his reasons and
purposes for entering the race for
congress; said he had practiced law
twenty-seven years in Chesterfield,
during which time he had often come
o,.nOw.? with Tjjncaster ueonle and
therefore did not feel among strangers
when at this place. He said that
some friend of his opponent's has just
recently circulated an erroneous report
against him to the effect that heat
one time had swindled Chesterfield
out of $40,000 in a railroad deal with ,
which he is alleged to have been connected.
This was stamped by the
speaker as the height of absurdity and
falsity, saying that he did not yet
know the origin of such a report, but
thinks that possibly his enemy who
caused this thing to gain circulation,
harks back to the time when the l^ancaster
and Chester railroad was originally
projected to Chesterfield, Chesterfield
land and money being invested.
when the facts in the case are that
when the project flunked, he it was
who was instrumental in getting the
hinds and money back to Chesterfield
and getting the affairs satisfactorily
adjusted.
He said his record was good at
home and everywhere els? fur this
he had labored. He said he had done
a great deal of work for South Carolina,
as the public records will show.
He invited inspection of his legislative
record and of his strenuous but
highly successful work in connection
with the rotten state dispensary winding-up
business, when he made, or
helped to make, numerous thieves and
rascals return to the state treasury
thousands of dollars taken in graft and
robbery. He opposed enormous expenditures
by congress for river and
harbor improvements and said that at
least when such appropriations were
made, like appropriations should lie
had for the making of good mads and
other improvements beneficial to till
the people. He thinks appropriations
for post roads should be made and
that I'nited States army engineers,
practically idle in time of peace,
should look after them and see to their
proper maintenance, lie scored Mr.
Finlcy for his vote on the Panama
canal tolls proposition and touched on
his record in congress for the past
sixteen years, greatly finding considerable
ground, as he thinks, for adverse
criticism.
Mr. Finley, being next introduced,
seemed glad of another opportunity,
after two years' absence, to tell of his
stewardship. He as well as his opponent
had a record in the state legislature
of which he is proud and invites
inspection. He told of his successful
work in congress in connection with
the rural delivery system and in promoting
efficiency along many other
legislative lines affecting the welfare
of the common people, for whose interest
and rights he works. During
his speech Mr. Finley paid the highest
possible tribute to NVoodrow Wilson
ind W. J. Bryan. He pronounced
Wilson decidedly the best and greatest
president since Thomas Jefferson.
He said the Democratic platform,
written by Mr. Bryan and adopted at
the Baltimore convention, was the
greatest platform ever brought before
the American people and that he was
jlearly conscientious and within line
r?f his conception of right when he
troted to sustain the clause in that
platform, relative to the canal tolls
iffair, believing that adherence to the
nlutform was of greater consequence
ind right than standing by the presllent.?Columbia
State.

Come to the Congressional cam>aign
meeting at Yorkville, July 23;
Fort Mill. July 23, at night: McConlellsville,
July 24, 11 o'clock, and he
vill tell you.
Mr. W. F. Stevenson, candidate for
ongress, was the person to have creat
for the completion of our State
louse. The advocates of the bill prodding
for that were beaten by the
tconomists in the house because it
vould increase taxes. He came forvard
with the proposition and let the
state borrow the money from the
sinking Fund Commission and repay
t at $15,000 a year. Build it and pay
'or it on the installment plan.
The News and Courier says, referring
to the apparent defeat of the
neasure, "But Mr. Stevenson came to
he rescue. He showed that the Sinkng
Fund had nearly $200,000 in bank
lrawing four per cent interest. Why
aot lend this amount to the State at
[he same rate and let the State treasury
refund it at the rate of $15,000 a
^ear. This would not increase the
levy of the State and would not hurt
the appropriations to the other causes,
rhe suggestion was adopted by both
houses," and the act passed in that
form and we got our State House com
pleted, which haci oeen sianuing nun
llnishod anil almost uninhabitable
from 1S64 to 1899.
So one seemed to think of the fact
that this could be done. Originality!
initiative! is the thing of first importince
in legislation. He seems to have
it, hence his name is linked with the
History of the State for 18 years.
Don't we need the same ability and
power in the highest degree in Washington?
Give it a trial. In the language
of the medical world, "take a

will last only two years.

The Pageland Incident.
Mr. Stevenson and Rev. J. W. Quick
Explain the Incident and What
Lead to It.
(Political Advertisement)
<>n the night of July 14, 1914, at
Pageland. S. C.. the candidates for
i 'ongress, \V. F. Stevenson and D. E.
Finley spoke. Mr. Stevenson opened
and Mr. Finley closed and Mr. Stevenson
exercised the right, assumed by
Mr. Finley at Chesterfield, of replying.
When he did so, Mr. Finley replied to
him and as he turned to sit down he
said to Mr. Stevenson. "You can't
throw olT on me." Mr. Stevenson said,
"How?" He had not made any personal
remarks to Mr. Finley and only
!? * ? ?... Vw. ucl.l .I??u.,r.wl
be an insinuation made by Mr. Finley
and had corrected Mr. Finley in reply
to questions addressed to him by Mr.
Finley. When Finley replied, "I will
just hurt you." Mr. Stevenson said,
"Hurt me, old man. hurt me?"
The chairman had announced the
meeting adjourned and as Mr. Stevenson
turned to pick up his papers Mr.
Finley hit him behind the right ear.
After Mr. Stevenson recovered from
the lick he approached Mr. Finley and
appeared about to engage in the dilliculty,
but he was pulled off the stand
by T. W. Itelk. stilted to him that he
wanted to prevent any difficulty.
The incident was entirely unexpected
and without any apparent cause, as
the debate was being conducted along
parliamentary lines and the apparent
heat of Mr. Finley was not understood
by Mr. Stevenson apparently or by the
audience.
\V. F. Stevenson.
To the best of my knowledge the
above is a correct statement, but I
don't know what Mr. Stevenson was
doing when Mr. Finley struck him.

Regarding the
Monument
The Monument is the sole product
of man which is expected to exist,
without change or repair, for all
time?beyond the memory that we
cherish in our hearts, which is only
as long as the span of life. It may
help to form a record, but it is erected
as a tribute of love to those who
have passed "to that bourne from
whence no traveler ever returns." As
such, let it be a thing of beauty, not
dark and somber, but bright and
cheerful; not typifying earthly sorrow,
but symbolizing undying love.
And as architecture is brought to us
from the past by the tombs of the
ancients, so let us pass on to those
in our steps, some worthy expression
of our conception of beauty.
