MR. BLEASES THANKS TO PEOPLE OF STATE FINANCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL AFFAIRS XOST DIPORTANT. 4 Promises If Elected to be GoTernor of All the People-Warning Against b False Charges. To -hc D,mocratic Voters of South! Carolina: The votes you gave me in the first ' primary 'were sufficient to place me I in the second race for the office of c governor. I can not express to you in c words how deeply grateful I am to you for this evidence of confidence in me. My friends in every county in the' State have been very active in my be- i half, and I believe they feel as I do, that the fight I am making is not sim ply to elect me governor of South Carolina, but that it is a battle for the people and their rights. I have expressed myself clearly all over the State on all of the issues of t interest to the people, and have en deavored in this campaign, to make financial and educational questions the principal matters for discussion. s I stand for an economical and busi ness like administration of the govern ment of the State, and will always favor saving the money of the tax payers where ever it can be done without detriment to the progress of South Carolina. The most important e question, as I conceive it, before the c people of South Carolina, is for the State so to conduct her business af- t fairs that the tax payers may not be constantly drained in order to enrich t] any special Interests. e I feel that my long experience as a a lawyer, my services as attorney for G the city of Newberry, my admiilstra- 0 tion as mayor of that town, the in- r formation that I have gained as a 1l member of th-1 house of repreenta- c tives for six years, and of the State senate for four yeai 3, and as president f pro tem. of that bod". for two years, c my services on +hi State PemTocratic 0 executive committee for 12 years, the F success that I t-&e had n the man- G agement of my ow, affaii3, and the I knowledge that I h:t of the peop e tj and conditi-as in every county of e South Carolina, will enable me to per- I form the duties of the high office of P governor, to the best interests of the C people at large. I have made a clean, honorable,t straightforward campaign, making noS fight on any man, but seeking election on my own merits and record. I have had no special interests backing me,t but have had to depend entirely upon the principles for which I stood, the people who favored those principles, and the support of my personal t: friends. I expect to continue my .T campaign as I have conducted it so c far, without appeals to prejudice, i 'without seeking to disparage any man i b who has opposed me. The returns 'I * from the first primary show that IjV have carried my home town and1 county over all my competitors by a t> splendid majority. I have led in the r counties of Lexington, Saluda, Union is * and Fairfield, which adjoin my home , county. In the county of Laurens, s where my opponent, Hon. C. C. n Featherstone resides, I have also led. t I was the leader in almost half of the e counties of the State. - I take this method to warn the peo-p pIe against unfounded charges and false statements which may be made .between. elections, when there is no ~opportunity to reply, and when these I -charges, if true, would have been mnade during the progress of the cam :paign. I believe that I will win in de s c *ond election, but I realize that in or der to do so, I must have the help of jt: the people, and that my friends must 13 be active in my behalf. I am sure C that this they will do, as evidenced by their loyalty heretofore. If elected,I will be the governor of the whole peo ple. I will stand for the best inter C ests of South Carolina, strive to hive enforced fairly and impartially her laws, and do all in my power to pro mote the moral and educational wel fare of her citizenship. t Cole. L. Blease. Newberry, S. C., Sept. 2, 1910. - - The Secret. The Idler. You ask me why I love you, What virtues you possess Which most appeals; your youth Your truth, or just your loveliness? t And I will tell you true, my dear, I I love you just because you're queer! Not all your beauty nor your youth. f Nor aught that you possess, Appeals to me endearingly As just your foolishness; Ah, yes, my dear, you're dear to me Because you seem so queer to me! The world is full of lovely maids, Whom all acknowledge fair, And maidens who are quite as true For whom I do not care; I love yn dear, and this is true, D)VhES 31.\h Bli P.A L. ake Over (ireeniville Car Line and the Lighting Plant-The Price About $500,000. Charlotte, Sept. 4.-The Duke inter sts, acting in conjunction with the romoters of the Greenville, Spartan urg and Anderson Railway Co., the reat South Carolina interurban cor oration, nave just purchased from the unerican Pipe company. of Philadel ihia the property of the Greenville 'raction company, and the Greenville |lectric Light & Power Co., which in luded the street car and lighting fa- I ilities of Greenville. While nothing definite is known as o the consideration of the deal, it is aid to be something in the neighbor ood of $500,000. The Greenville Traction company acludes the street car system of -reenville which owns 14 miles of rackage and a fine plant from start to nish. The Greenville Gas, Electric .ight and Power Co., carries with it le lighting facilities of the city. Recently the Southern Power com any organized a local concern to do ome lighting business in Greenville. t is presumed that hereafter this con ern will have exclusive control of the >cal business. Greenville Reassured. The appended is the dispatch which [r. W. S. Lee, vice president and gen ral manager of the Southern Power ompany, wired Mayor Marshall of -reenville, yesterday confirming the 7ansfer: "Our interests have today purchased ie Greenville railway and light prop rties. We wish to advise you of this nd assure you and the citizens of reenville that as soon as we perfect ur organization we will have our rep esentatives call on you with the end 1 view of securing all interests con erned to the best possible advantage." According to the advices received om Greenville last night there was mnsiderable rejoicing over the change f ownership. While the American ipe company has been popular in reenville, its owners have been too r away for any sympathetic rela onship. On the: other hand the Souti rn Power company is extremely popu Lr in the Mountain city. It is the irpose of the promoters of the reenville, Spartanburg & Anderson ~ailway company, which already owns e fine Anderson traction system, to ake Greenville the centre of the uth Carolina interurban -system just it plans to make Charlotte the cen e of the North Carolina and even ially thee entire interurban system. Charlotte the Centre. Mr. Lee h2s been in New York for e past week in conference with Mr. B. Duke and other Southern Power >mpany promoters. He is expected me tomorrow, accompanied possibly y Mr. Duke and one or two others. 'he centre of operations in the future rill be in Charlotte. The acquirement of the Greenville action interests by the Greenville, partanburg & Anderson Railway Co. said to have been assential to the Telfare of the interurban, the local ituation being such as to make this ore or less imperative. And then the action interests of Greenville belong to a Northern corporation which as willing to dispose of it at a fair rice. "UP AGAINST IT."
