t List of Naval Losses During First

their cargoes, in many instances very

To the Democratic Voters of South
Carolina:
It would be impossible for any man
to express the feelings of deep gratitude
which 1 feel for the support given
me by my fellow-citizens in my race
for Railroad Commissioner. I would
like very much to go back over the
State and see personally all of the
people, but I am a poor man. and
this is impossible. Therefore, I have
to content myself by begging my
friends to stand by me in the second
race.
I am still an advocate of a flat twocent
rate for travel on all railroads In
this State. My opponent. Mr. Shealy,
is opposed to this rate. I am reliably
- * norfoln
Inrormea xnai ihkh umvimg ui
railroads are very active in Mr. Shealy's
behalf. I am for the people and
for their best interests, and I am depending
upon them for my election.
If I am elected I promise to be fair
and impartial in all my dealings between
the corporations and the people.
I have no money with which to
buy votes or with which to hire people
to run around and work for me in
attempting to influence votes or buy
votes, and if I were worth a million
dollars I would not spend one cent of
it to try to corrupt a single white
voter of South Carolina. I believe
that I will be elected, because the peoI
pie of South Carolina are with me.
I again thank my friends and those
who sp-norted me, and respectfully
solicit the votes of all my fellow-eitiJzens.
C. D. Fortner.
To the Voters of York County.
I desire to express my thanks to the
many who have given me the support
of their suffrage in the Democratic
primary in which of twelve candidates
for the Legislature. I ran second, lack*
*" * inn On the*
fng oniy vines ui ?
first ballot. Further, I wish again to
invite the support of the voters, promising
that, if elected, I will give them
honest and faithful service to the best
of my ability.
I have based my campaign on no
man's weakness and no man's mistakes:
I have spoken unkindly of no
other candidate for the office, nor do
I intend to: I have sought the office of
representative from York County in
what seemed to me a manly way, offering
myself as one willing to give
his best service and properly to esteem
the honor of standing for the
citizenship of York.
Fort Mill?my home town?has seen
fit to endorse my candidacy by giving
me nearly 90 per cent of its total vote.
Fort Mill always has stood back
and, almost isolated as it is from the
rest of the county, has willingly supported
for county offices men from
other sections of the county. Returning
this courtesy, the rest of the county
usually has accorded support to one
Fort Mill candidate for the legislature.
While I make this suggestion in appealing
for your support, I wish it understood
that if elected, as I expect to
be. my voice and vote in the House of
Representatives will not be raised for
one section against another?I pledge
myself to regard all parts of York
County as equally deserving of the
best that can be obtained, and to cast
every vote and make every speech for
the good of the people, whose servants
all public officials must be.
The time between the two primaries
is short, and a personal canvass is impossible.
Let these, my expressed
pledges and pleas, take the place of
face to face conversation: let them
have the effect of my very strongest
personal assurances.
1 appeal to my friends not to assume
r will hp nominated in the second
primary anyway, but to be sure to go
to the polls and support me on election
day.
for your past support I thank you:
I ask for your support in the second
primary upon the grounds set out.
Yours very truly,
\V. R. Bradford.

GOV. BLEASE ON MR. MANNING.
Record of the Sumter Man Always
Opposed to Reform.
Sharon, S. C.. Aug. 31, 1914.
Editor Yorkville Enquirer:
Please print the enclosed letter that
has been received by a Reformer of
this vicinity from Governor Blease, and
which explains itself fully.
Reformers.
Columbia, S. C., Aug. 29. 1914.
My dear Friend:
The second race for governor, as you
see, is between Richards and Manning.
The election of Manning means
the overthrow of the rights of the laboring
people of this state. Manning's
grandfather was governor, and his
father was governor, and he comes directly
from the "aristocracy," as they
term themselves. His votes in the
House of Representatives and in the
Senate, when he was there as a Representative
from Sumter county, were
always against the interests of the laboring
people, and his election to the
Governorship means the loss of everything
that the laboring man has worked
for since 1S90 in the politics of this
State, and it will take years for them
to recover and get justice and their
rights if they sit down now and allow
Manning to be Governor. I beg you,
not for myself, but for the people whom
I represent, to get busy and do everything
within your power to elect Major
R<?hnrH? C.nvorrnr. All I can do Is to
ben the people not to make the mistake
of electing Manning, and I am begging
you.
Manning voted in 1902, as Senator,
when a bill was introduced to prohibit
trusts, against the bill and for the
trusts. See Senate Journal, 1902, pages
462 and 472. At the same session, when
the railroad relief bill for employees
was offered, he voted to kill the bill
and against the interests of the employees.
See Journal, pages 262, 276
and ai>4. By voting to kill this bill he
voted to prevent the family of the
railroad employee who was killed by
negligence of the railroad, or its servants,
from recovering any damages
from the railroad corporation. At the
same session, when the State was endeavoring
to repeal the charter of the
Virginia-Carolina Chemical company,
a trust throttling, or attempting to
throttle, the farmers of South Carolina,
and which Attorney General Bellinger
and his assistants were fighting with
all their power, Mr. Manning voted
agi inst the bill to suspend this corporation.
and against the interests of the
farmers and laboring people. See
Journal, 1902, page 260. In the session
of 1900, Journal, page 206, you will see
wlu-re Mr. Manning voted against the
child labor bill and against the interest
of the cotton mill employees. In
1906. as Senator, he voted against the
bill to prevent strikes and lockouts,
which was introduced to meet emergencies
and to help the cotton mill employees,
thus voting against the laboring
man and in favor of the corporation.
He also voted against the bill for
ten hours in cotton mills. You will
find that in session of House
Journal, page 1st!. Also in the Senate
Journal of 1900, page 366, he voted
against separate coaches for the two
races, thus voting for white ladies to
be thrown in the same conches with
negro men.
It will thus be seen that this man,
veto. i? now the uresident of a bank in
Sumter, and a director in many other
large corporations in this State, on every
occasion, as Senator and Representative,
voted against the interests
of th?* laboring man and for the corporations,
and he is today the candidate
for the corporations and their officers
and attorneys, and is receiving
their unanimous and solid backing.
In addition to this, he was in the
Sheppard convention, which met in
March, 1 s;?2, as a delegate from Sumter
county, which convention denounced
Men Tillman's administration in
these words: "We pledge ourselves to
the most rigid economy in the administration
of tlie government, made more
than necessary by the misfortunes of
the people and the impending deliciency
in our treasury, resulting from
the unwise management of the present
administration." At another place, in
speaking of the then Governor M. it.
I Tillman, their platform said: "We submit
that the course of the head of our
[ present administration, both before
and since his election, has been unwise
and unjust"?and this platform
goes on?it is too long for me to quote
It all to you?in denouncing Tillman
and the Reform movement in no uncertain
language, and calliilg upon the
people to rally around their standard
carried by John C. Sheppard, of Edgetield,
to down the "despot" Tillman
and his friends.
Now, Mr. Manning claims to be a
friend of the farmer and the laboring
people. If so, why was he in this convention
denouncing Tillman and the
farmers' movement in such terms as I
have quoted to you, and as can easily
be verified by the records?
Mr. Manning, when he was Senator
from Sumter county in 190?, voted to
compel all parents or guardians to
send their children or wards to school
?a bill known as the compulsory education
bill, introduced by Senator
Raysor of Orangeburg. Mr. Brice, the
Senator from York, moved to kill the
bill. Mr. Manning voted "No", thus
voting for compulsory education. Now
he says he favors local option compulsory
education. Yet, twelve years ago,
when they were very much less ready
then than they are now, he did not vote
for local option compulsory education,
nor did he vote to leave It to the people
whether they wanted it or not, but '
he voted to force it on them. Another
artful change in this corporation candidate's
political life.
He is most assuredly subject to j
change, for he was one of the state
must hitter and active
opponents when a member of the senate,
but after going to Washington
and holding a conference with Senator ,
Tillman, he came back to the Senate, !
and all at once became the great champion
of the corrupt (?) dispensary,
falling on his knees and hollering, in
order to become governor, "I am now '
a friend of the State dispensary, I am
now a friend of Ben Tillman, whom I
have denounced publicly and privately,
I am now a disciple of Tillmanism,
and an upholder of the dispensary,"
concluding with those beautiful lines,
"I now consecrate my all to thee,
Ben Tillman and the State dispensa- '
ree."
When Mr. Manning was a member
of the House of Representatives in
1893, a bill was introduced to change
the legal rate of interest in this State
by reducing it, which was a bill in favor
of the money borrower, the poor
man. When a motion was made to
kill the bill, Mr. Manning voted to kill
it, and against reducing the rate of In.
?s_ v v,mnuiMHnng?he
leresi 111 ueiiaii ui ino vvi rv.
being a corporation director and a corporation
president?by refusing to vote
to reduce the rate of interest, which
would have been of great assistance to
the poor people?those who have to
borrow money. This will be found on
page 334 of the House Journal of 1893.
Mr. Manning and some of his friends
argue with great force that we should
stand by the nominees of the Democratic
party. This is correct, but when
Mr. Manning makes this argument, he
should remember that he himself did
not do so when he was such a bitter
enemy and opponent of one B. R. Tillman,
whom he has since learned to
love. In 1894 Governor Tillman and
Senator M. C. Butler were candidates
for the U. S. Senate. The election was
to be held by the General Assembly, as
there was no primary at that time for
U. S. Senator. But it was clearly and
distinctly understood that whichever
of these gentlemen received the majority
of the votes in this primary was
to be the U. S. Senator, and that State
Senators and Representatives were
morally bound to support the nominee.
However, we find fifteen members of
the General Assembly elected that year
in the same primary that Tillman beat
Butler in, violating their obligations
to the Democratic party and refusing
to vote ror tsen 1 miimii, u>c
cratic nominee for the Senate, and
among these fifteen was one Richard
I. Manning, then a member of the
House from Sumter county. He refused
to support B. R. Tillman, the nominee
of the party, and got up on the
floor of the Legislature and seconded
in a beautiful speech the nomination of
General Butler, who had been defeated,
and when the roll was called, voted for
Butler against the Democratic nominee,
"old Ben Tillman," as he was familiarly
called by the farmer boys.
See Journal. 1894, page 263.
This is the man who is today claiming
the vote of the laboring people and
saying that he is their friend. As I
- ?- ' I T
said 10 you in me uckiiiiiius, * opian
not for myself. My political ambition
was to be Governor. I have been and
I am Governor, but I do not want to
be succeeded by a man who I know
will be oppressive upon my friends and
the people of this State, and who will
be a friend of the corporations and the
money interests, as has been evidenced
by every vote that he has cast as a
member of the House and of the Senate,
and who is today their paid servant
as a corporation officer and a
corporation stockholder.
Vote as you please. I have sounded
the warning.
May God's richest blessings rest upon
the people whose interests I represent.
Very respectfully.

DEMOCRATS OF
SOUTH CAROLINA:
It is your duty to go to the polls on September the :
8th and vote in the Second Primary. So far only a partial
victory has been gained. The election of a Governor is
the people's fight; he is in the State all the time; he can be
reached by the humblest man; he is the Governor, but the
servant of every man in the State. Mr. Manning will be
* ' ? :e rte\ in tho nnllc and vote 4
elected uovernur 11 mc jjcu^ic gv w ?? ?. |?w ??
on September 8.
There will be many eleventh hour falsehoods spread
and from past experience the voters of this State should
know that these below-the-belt ought not to be believed.
Make up your minds now to vote for good government.
There will be attempts to cloud the issue, but the
people cannot be fooled. DON'T STOP WORKING FOR
LAW AND ORDER AND GOOD GOVERNMENT UNTIL
THE LAST VOTE IS COUNTED.
The farmers of the State are going to stand to Mr.
Manning, a farmer himself, who knows the A. B. C. of
farm conditions, and who has been foremost in bettering
rural conditions. He is working now to help in the fight
roiiovp fhp rorron situation and he has already done
much to help the planters of his State at other times.
