McLeod. po Attorney General Lyon and James E. ul Ellerbe. the enthusiastic reception pa given Charles A. Smith in his hompm county, and the bestowal of bouquets pr on three candidates who have hitherto m: not been thus favored, Blease, Mahotn wj and Duvall. 0. C. Scarborough was loudly applauded and prove4 the f co vorite among the candidates,for rail co road commissioner. tw After the Lyon-Evans incident the di: remainder of the meeting was ratber pe tame and apparently of no great in- St terest to the people. When the can- to didates for goverrior spoke the audi-: an eace had thinned out perceptibly. All I the candidates except Hampton were'; In present. su The sturdy Florentines heard Johnw T. Duncan "for his cause," but abso lutely refused to applaud him. One sti might easily have heard a pin drop wl when the candidate from Columbia op .4 concluded. Duncan agrees with Mr. lie Daniel about the wickedness of the pl( State capital, and is glad to find him- th( self "in such good company." St BIleise Issues Challenge. dii Mayor Blease wants a- debate be- m; tween himself and the editor of the tb Columbia State, or at least with the fig author of an editorial squib in Satur- pe day's issue of that paper. In refer- Sc ence to that utterance Mr. Blease a said: < d so "I notice in the editorial columin cc of the State newspaper of this day. of 'We shall in a day or two have some- sy thing to say in regard to the candi- r dacy of Candidate Blease that will not pe be regarded as indorsement.' - ar "I believe that the people of South is Carolina are in favor of fair play, and wi I now request and invite the man who a1 wrote that article to come on the ros- Sc trum at Columbia at the State cam paign meeting next Saturday, August ,h 6, and have his 'something to say in sa regard to the candidacy of Candidate wg Blease' to my face, where I can and en will have the opportunity to make re-1e ply; and if he declines this, then I I demand that he name a time and g place where he will agree to meet me no face to face and make his state- ab ments." Se Following this Mr.oBlease made a th strong plea for economy in the b State's affairs, particularly in the: of higher educational institutions. He c says Furman, Wofford, Erskine and Of Newberry are running on one-third im *the money given the State institutions !and are sending out just as brainy men and accomplishing just as much M good. -H Messrs. Hyatt and. Richards made ge their usual speeches, each receiving te: applause, being several times inter- chi rupted therewith. It was an obvious ra fact that there were some strong op State-wide prohibitionists in the audi ence, as well as local optionists; the latter, however, were in the majority. McLeod was easily the favorite, but as to who came out second best, it is: T debatable, all, except Duncan, being warmly applauded. E. W. Duvall, for lieutenant gover nor, made~ his best speech today, and was loudly cheered. Mr. Smith spoke m but a few moments. tri Col. W. W. Moore seemed to be the m favorite among the canldidates for ad- of jutant general. RI C. C. Featherstotne made a parti- A1 cularly strong speech today, on which be he drew fortfl considerable applaus .? In view of criticism regarding his 1o- in cal o ption advocacy two years ago. PC Mr. Featherstone made the following statement: ar Featherstonje arnd Local Option. Ti "I want to makze plain my position 1m; on the liquor question. I have advo- in cated prohibition all my life, and as in a means to an end until the State got El ready for absolute prohibton. I have un advocated local option. Co n h the local option interview of ra 1907. to which reference has been re- Wi peatedly made of late, I distinctly and emphatically made the statement that at what we ultimately wanted was prohi-- er bition for the entire State, and that I in only advocated local option as a Pt means to an end. I furthermore dis- Ie tinctly stated that when we had such fe an overwhelming majority- 'ini the en- Io tire Stat' as o0 in1sure its enforcCf- T not havn had in]U mn acondition of affairs when a majority of the people er in eh county in the State wVould fa':or 1)rohibition : nor do I think that T the l1ug:ig employed is.ss.i erf that cnstruction. If so, I w-a r such idea was intended to be yed. "Surely, no sane man could beli r example. that I expected to r State-wide prohibition until a -ity of the people in Charle, mld favor State-wide prohibitio oke of the State as a unit. and iguage, 'the entire State,' must nsidered in that connection. .About two years ago. in a sec :erview.
