NOW ,two E. H. AULL, EDITOR. .,.Untered.at the Postoffice at New srry, S. C., as and class matter. Triday, June 29, 1906. TO RUN INDEPENDENT CAM PAIGN. Senator Tillman has issued an ad Wiress to his fellow citizens of South Carolina, which is printed inl another columi. le says that he will lnot join the state campaign for the reason that there is not time enough given to the speakors. le also insists that. the newspapers do not give sutficient re ports of what is said and upon the whole, he has abont reached the con clusion that our present state cam paign is a1 failure. le does Iot care to adiit this, and in doing so, shifts tle ilaimle to tle lewspapers. With some thirty canldidates we would be glad if Senator Tillma wVould explain how each one, on he in. givenl tle lime which he thinks is Iecessary and in which opinion le is coreet, to dfieluss issues, eoubl thlen get these speeches all delivered he tween sunll upl) and sull down. If each ('le would be -ivenl onlv thirtv milut es, it woJhM take someit tenl or. twelve houlrS, and wve art' sure that Senator. TillmIani for himuself would like to have at ltast one hour. -Jf the lewspapers were to report the speeches inl full each daIv. it would he a rehash of what was said the day before. As a maltter of fact. Seiator Till man is correel. Our state campaigns are failures so far as educatiing tle people and so fa'r as gettiig the ex pression of tihe sentiment of tle pet l.le oni anly particular issue is conce'ern ed.

But he(re is thle prediction and( in many' respets'f it is inot far of the When the pimaries are over it may Ibe interestinig fto talk abtout the fol. lowing prediction, based on a study otf the facts: Mir.

Ileyward and Tal hert were known gzenerallyv and lie was not. That race introduced him. B Iarring accidents, lie is ias'good as elected. People who want banigl-wvag Son seats wiill take dlue not ice. At presenit Mr. Cole. L. Blease is leading for second place. If Seniator Tillmnan joins in the campaign lie wvill quietly undertake to put a stop to this and throw his influence to Mr. H. I. Manning-not that lie likes M ~anning so, much ,but because lie M:;Niitnks Tufanning wvould prove a adtonger inan in the final heat.

We can't predict the r suilt. The race for railroad comniissioni is Wharton against the field wit Sullivan second. We hope Col. Tribble will be. eleete secretary of state. ~ We believe that J. Fraser Lyo will sweep the-state for attorney get eral, we believe in the people strong] mnough to take for granted that the will elect him overwhelmningly. H deserves election more than any ma that has run for any ofice in tli state in 20 years. In the cases of Tribble and Lyo the judgment of the Advertiser ma possi)ly be biased by its wishes-w do not know. In the other cases, wV wish some of outr "pridictions'' eleel (d and soeic defeated.
