Judge Gaffney on Political Outlook.
Orangeburg Evening News.
Tn an interview this morning with
this eminent jurist, Judge Claude
Gafl'ney, of St. Matthews, he seemed
well pleased with the political outlook.
Speaking of the approaching
Democratic convention in Denver,
Colorado, he said that Bryan will be
nominated on the lirst ballot, but refused
to uive an opinion as to who
will be Bryan's running mate. When
asked as to Bryan's chances of election
in November, he was very em.

In State politics, tlie judge seemed
greatly interested and is a Please
man to the core, lie is a groat admirer
of Hlease's platform and
speaks of Ansel as a "dead gosling in
the political pit." Being a man of
strong convictions lifmself. the judge
cannot reconcile himself to what he
is pleased to call "Ansel's weathervane
views."
BLEASE DENIES BET STROY.
At Meeting at Edgefield he Labels
Report in Augusta Paper
False.
We take the following from the
report of the Edgefield correspondent,
to I he News and Courier:
The Hon. C. L. Blouse came next,
lie opened hv savin? that there were
some newspapers that would publish
anything, regardless of its truth, to
injure him. and read a statement
from the Augusta Chronicle to the effect
that he, Blease, had offered to
bet a thousand dollars to five hundred
that he would beat Ansel. He
said he was going 10 heat him, but
he was not such a fool as to bet on an
election in violation of the laws of
the Slate, lie repeated the views on
State issues expressed by him at previous
meetings. He reiterated his
well known position on the liquor
question, and said that (Jovernor Ansel
was anything to ??aTeh the popular
vote. In fact he understood that
a Greenville paper had once offered
a reward to any man who could tell
where I lie governor stood on any publie
question.
Mr. Rlease was well received, his
speech being punctuated with applause.
Also to Wellman.
That theory that the North Pole is
shifting ought to bitng comfort to
Peary. All he lids to do is to go
around to the other side and wait for
