LIVELY SENSATIONAL
MEET AT BAMBERG
SO>1!: KX( I I} MKNT KXTI:( I i!!)
BI T NOTHING HAITIANS.
(iovern<?r Tears lp Teietrrani Handed
Him by Oumty Chairman.
Bamberg, June -7.?The I'nited j
State senatorial campaign meeting
here today partook in s mie slight de-:
gree to the boisterous nature of the j
gubernatorial campaign meeting o:'
two years ago. That was the "rough" j
day of the entire campaign that year
It was on the morning succeeding the
Spartanburg dictaphone episode, and
the language of one of the candidates ,
in referring to the alleged revelations
was so nauseating that ladies were
compelled to leave the grounds. At;
no other places visited this campaign
have the lines of partisan cleavage j
been so definitely drawn. Other voters j
have not been so emphatic in their j
preference of candidates. At no other
place were the candidates more lib-1
erally applauded. At no place have
. more questions been fired at the I
speakers, nor the parrying and thrust-1
ing and the acid replies been more
appreciated or returned with more
deadly effect.
Tears Up Telegram.
When the governor was introduced \
today he was asked by H. C. Folk*
the county chariman, to answer ^
telegram sent during the recent ses-j
sion of the State legislature, asking
why the governor was not supporting
Mr. Folk for master, when Mr. Folk j
was the Democratic primary nominee,!
but had sont another name to the
senate for confirmation. The chairman
also propuunde an additional question:
"Is a man who violates his
oath at the ballot box a fit person to
send to the United States senate?"
The governor totally ignored the i
latter question and taking the telegram,
tore ii into shreds, spat upon
j J c* w Thai

governor then said: "If that dirty!
coward who made the threat against;
me in the drug store is in the au- j
dience, now is the time for him to do ?'
i
his work." There was no movement i
in the audience, nor any response. '
Gev. Blease asserted that some one
in a nearby drug stores had said: "I ;
"want to hear Gov. Blease today, as it |
will be the last speech he ^vill ever ;
make." There was no response and j
the governor again said if the coward 1
were there it was the proper time to
-carry out the threat.
Governor Guarded.
The governor had come to Bamberj
berg prepared for trouble, as four
State detectives were close 'by at all
times, closely guarding the governor j
against any possible attack. A depu- j
ty sheriff from Newberry was also in I
the party.
Approximately 1,000 voters heard j
the candidates. The meeting was
held in a grove near the Southern
depot, with H. C. Folk, who has been j
county chairman since the county was i
organized, presiding. Prayer was of- I
fered by the Rev. w. H. HodgeS. The j
speeches were limited to 3o minutes.
( alls For Order.
In introducing the first speakers
today, the chairman reminded the audience
of the meeting two years ago
"which was heralded to the world as
a disgrace to South Carolina.'' The
disturbances then he said were "led by
and indulged in by henchmen of certain
candidates brought here for that
purpose:' Mr. Folk then read a set
of resolutions recently adopted at the
Bamberg county convention whicri I
would require all speakers to em- j
ploy language that would not be of-1
fensive to the women who happened
to attend. These same resolutions
also provided adequate police ppwe**
to enable the chairman to quell any
disturbance.
Mr. Jennings was the advance
guard of the speaking brigade today.
When introduced he was met with I
X I
cheers for Blease, with counter cheering
tor both him and Senator Smith.
When he launched into an animated
defense of the new primary rules
again there were hurrahs for the
speaker and the governor. One in the
audience told the mayor of -Sumter
that he would not be elected to the
United States senate. "I'm not worrying
about that," Mr. Jennings, replied,
and the crowd applauded the
speaker with a marked degree of enthusiasm.
At this juncture the question was
asKea, vvny was h mipuseu niai we
should write our names in full when
v;e register." The speaker drew a
prolonged round of applause when he
said: "There are so many people with
tho same initials, but \\ho nave to-!
tally different names when wrtten out ;
in fnl:. that t is arrangement was ab- !
solutely n eessary to prevent another '

HUM am 1 uun.1 u . * aim, ,
back from the crowd. Senator Smith's j
record. Mr. .Jennings claimed, was j
only "cotton."
"Oh, n some one answered, "that .
won't go."
"It consists main I v in a few resolu*
tions offered in congress,'" the speak
er went on. "to investigate Hayne !
and others to prevent gambling in c</.~
ton futures."
This criticism was keenly relished, i
and calls o:' "That's right," and "Tell i
it to them, Jennings," followed in
rapid succession.
Xothing the speaker said about the
governor elicited more applause than
when he said: "The governor says |
he's proud of his record. Then he j
should at least be proud of me, for I
expect to help him to exhibit that
record on every stump in South Carolina."'
When Mr. Jennings was decrying
the idea of petitions signed
by the juries, somebody said the i
"jurymen have just found out that
they are mistaken." The speaker's
reply was, "Then all these 14,000
jurymen must have been awfully ignorant."
This was followed by mucfl j
.. i
cheering, and a Blease adherent, sit->
ting on the edge ck' the platform, kept i
repeating, "Go it, Jennings; if I don't'
vote for Blease I'll vote for you."
JMr. Pollock urged the voters, when
the time for making a selection came,
not to measure him around the waist,
Vint irnnnH fho hathanrl TTP nlsf)
reminded Bamberg citizens that he
had behind him no political machine.
"I have done nothing for you/' he
continued. "I have neither appointed
1
any of you to office, nor have I granted
any of vjti pardons.'' He only
asked for the votes of the ugly men.
"Then you'll sure be elected," some
one answered.
"Yes, and I'll get your vote," tke
speaker called back.
"What are you going to do witn
Blease," another asked.
"I'll get to that presently,'' Mr. Pollock
shot back, and someone in another
part of the crowd volunteered
the information, "Nothing. I can answer
toat.''
The speaker then discussed the
Walterboro speech of the governor,
and pronounced some practices of the
governor when paralleled with the
principles as set forth in this speech
as "the most monumental of jokes."
The two to which he gave particular
attention were the enforcement of the
law in conformity with the verdict oi'
the 'courts of the law and trial by
jury.
Honor Roll Rouses Mirth.
Xo stunt that any candidate has
"?^!i 11 ,-iri nW' /lnviSio- tlio namiwion Vis<a
\J u iXUU \JIL UUilll5
created more genuine merriment
than the reading of Mr. Pollock's,
"honor roll" of "furriners,'' taken
from certain club lists in Charleston.
The speaker's pronunciation of these
rhythmical liames, in a strictly polished
stacatto nasal strain, has not yet
failed to convulse any audience on
whic it has been tried. When tbia
had been read today, the speaker asked:
"Do you want those people, who
can't speak a word of English, and
who are voted by corrupt politicians
as dumb driven cattle, to govern
South Carolina?"
When the chorus of "Nos" had
died down, he further asked: "Do you
want to be lined up with Vincent
Chicco, Jim Sottile, the Italian Dago
and king of blind tigers, on the governor's
staff? If you don't they are
the ones with whom the governor has
sided/'
Senator Smith said that his oppo-1
nents had been trying to divorce him j
ana ".vuss omiuu, my uia sweetheart."
'They've been trying to create
family trouble/' he continued.
"They can't divide us. We will remain
:i.i"- parable until we are clothed
in purple and fine .men." The senator
t:.em' quoted scripture to the ef-I
fppt ih-.-.t il.p I.or,? f. hasrenerh t^mi? !
w^om Ho lovetli. ''Ti'.eu ;e certain1* j
must love me," he went on. "For a
time I thought that I'd have ont> >ne
lawyer to chase me in South Carolina.
Lc and behold, I now have three.
Some of you -vill understand '.v.iy 11 is
sj devilish rard to get scmet'iing

among iLo 9fj ntors in Washington.

to have hit, ?< >*. Tbey can talk on
either side equally well, and tnen split
the difference."
Senator Smith explained to Bamberg
citizens how they could take
iir papers on real estate or agricultural
products to a me'iiber bank and J

was the reply.
Senator Smith dismissed t^e accusation
t'nat Hoke Smith of Georgia
was the anth r of one of the Smith
bills by sa> ing that "the Georgia senator
had no more to do with introducing
that bill than he had to do
with the nebular hypothesis or the
plan of salvation."
Same Old Story.
(The governor again today took Sen
ator Smith to task on the subject of
"Haskellism" when he said the senator
tried to defeat Ben Tillman. He
also taxed the senator with voting,
while a member of the State legislature,
against a separate coach law.
He said that Senator Smith did not
favor a resolution, offered at the Hal-!
timore c mention by a Western delegate.
to repeal the 14th amendment
of the constitution of the I'nited
States. He referred to the lynching
of a negro in Bamberg r .inty for
attacking 'a white girl and added:
"Yet some of you here today are hollering
for a man who voted to pay
$2,000 to any negro's family that was
lynched. That man is Senator Smith."
Gov. Blease again paid his respects
| to the State convention and the new
primary rules then formulated. These,
he said, were concocted in the Jefferson
hotel, Columbia. The delegates,
he said, did not act like Democrats
I
with Democrats, neither as if in convention,
but rather in caucus behind
closed doors. Referring to his pardons,
he said that he had pardoned
four already this week and would
pardon another when he got to Columbia
tonight.
i The governor at Bamberg todaysaid
that the State's correspondent
I had misunderstood him at the Barnj
well meeting in reporting that he had
| said "Senator Smith is a Republican."

Aiter Four Years of Discouraging
Conditions, Mrs. Bnllock Gave
Up in Despair. Husband
Came to Rescue.
Catron, Ky.?In an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: "I suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
[his time, I could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all. At times, I would have severe pains
in my left side.
The doctor was called in, and his treatment
relieved me for a while, but I was
soon cor.Mned to my bed again. After
that, nothing seemed to do me any good.
I had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman's tonic, and I commenced
taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was- helping me I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing my work."
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don't give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman's tonic. It nas helpea
more than a million women, in its 50
years of wonderful success, and should
surely help you, too.. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for yeans. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will recommend
it. Begin taking Cardui today.
