The Newberry people behaved beautifully
on campaign day. It was what j
we expected them to do. j

Be sure to get your name properly f
on the club roll or you will not be j j
allowed to vote in the primary. The i ?
time for enrolling expires on July 28. j
Use the split log drag wherever you
can and whenever you have the time. ?,
iThere are some good roads in the r
county that could be kept good by the j t
proper use of the split log drag. .! ^
is simple and inexpensive in its use. ' j
T:.e time for enrolling will expire i f]
on the 28th of this month. Remem-1
ber that if you want to vote in the ?
prmary your name must be on tiie : a
club roll, and it must be your full ; \
name. Hunt up the secretary of t
your club and see that your name is j t
prcperly on the club roll. e
P
Senator Smith left the Greenwood
meeting to go around by Clinton to i
look at some of the nail stricken dis- i
tricts with a view, as he said, of see- \ r
ing i: he could get some government j e
aid for the sufferers. There are some i -v
in this county who would be glad to j 2
get aid. It is hardly probable that the j
government can or would give aid in t
cases of this kind. <
I
The people of "South Carolina should \ r
come to the aid of those gentlemen j r
who arc making an effort to have the j ^
StaU represented at the Panama ex- ^
position in California next year. A j ^
small amount from all the interests i 5
12
will not fall heavily on any one. The ' r
question is not so much whether the I f
State should be represented but j a
whether or not it can afford not to be t
represented. With all the other States L
represented it will look a little queer (
for South Carolina not to- be in the (
picture. (
;
TWO MEETINGS.
j I
We attended the campaign meetings j .
at Newberrv and Greenwood on Fri- ,
day and Saturday respectively of last
week. It was said tiiat these two were
the largest in attendance that have 1
yet been held. The meeting at Green- 1
wood was at least a third larger in
number than the one at-Newberry, if *
]
there were two thousand people at
the Newberry meeting there were easi- (
lv three thousand at Greenwood. At
both places the crowds were orderly j 1
and upon the whole attentive to the , ]
speakers. |'
!]
! 1
Of course no two men will see a
meeting just the same. Our judgment 1
is always more or less biased by our
prejudices, our likes and dislikes. We
| ?
believe that all will admit, however, j'
i 1
that the meeting at Newberry was !
largely a Blease meeting, and we mean 1
by that that the effort to discount |
Blease in his home county was ?. fail- j
are, and that the sentiment in favor j
of Blease 'for the senate largely pre- j
dominated at the meeting. Certainly, j'
we feel sure t'.iat those who got up !
the scheme will admit that their effort j
to boost Smith -with the bale o: cor-'
i
trm nnri makp a rli<?nlnv was a riisrrm] !
failure. So mucli so that the gentle- j
:nan who drove the wagon out re- J
turned all alone by one of the back
streets. The scheme had been planned
for several days, and the evident purpose
was to make a big display in fav-!
or of Smith, so that it mig'.it be used 1
l
;n other parts of the State to the hurt
of Blease. We have often wondered
why it was that -some people in New- i
berry would fight Blease so bitterly, j
Of course, some of them will tell ycu j
that he is not their "style." We have
wondered if some of the others they
have tried to put in high places were
'heir "stvle.M We have about come
;
*o the conclusion that a great deal of j
the opposition to nim in his home i
. ounty comes from envy and jealousy, j
instead of being proud that one o: |
their citizens has riser. Irom the '
i
!
nimble walks of li.'e to t::e highest
>osition in the gift of the people and
rying to encourage 'him, they seem
o take pleasure in throwing every
tumbling blocks possible in
lis way. tsuL in rnt iace
)f that opposition he will car y
Newberry county in his present
ight and will receive the endorsement
)i the people of South Carolina. Surey
he must have received some votes
ipsidps those that t'be ODDOsition are
*
jleased to term "the lawless element"
or if he lias not it is a terrible arraignment
to make of the people of
5out.i Carolina to charge that a maority
belong to that class.
* * *
Then we hear a good deal about
the mill vote" and many times it is
/-> in n cnourincr ^nf wqv
X tU LV/ XAX CL ov^ ^ vi " uj
>y the speakers and the newspapers.
Ye have observed one thing and that
s that every election year there are
l number of th^se who are seeking ofice
that get very affectionate and lovng
to this "mill vote" and you will
ind them sending :or the mill people
md going to see them and in every
vay trying to get that v te. In fact

* *
To get back to the Newberry meetng
we admit to great disappointment
n Mr. Jennings. From what he had
ead in the newspapers we had reach
id the conclusion that he, at least,
vas a good speaker and something of
in orator. We had never seen Mr.
(ennings before, and did not have
be pleasure of an introduction on this
jccasion, but we listened to what
ie termed his speech. There was
lotting to his speech and we were
lot favorably impressed with trne apjearance
of the man. As to Pollock
ve have known him for a good many
ears. He can make a good speech
Liid is a right clever fellow, 'but no
nan can do his best when he sets out
irst, last, and all the time, simply to
ibuse his onponent. We are sumrised
Rat he would permit himself to be
Jsed in this manner. Of course, neit'liir
he nor Jennings expects to be
elected, but the scheme is to 'have them
lo the abusing and have Smi > get the
rotes. A very patriotic position to
:ake, but one that will in no sense
nure to their benefit.
*
They claim to be showing up
TTTl ~ _ ' ^
oicaac ?> re<;uiu. way every scu^ui
f
joy in South Carolina knows all'they
ire telling, and has known it all along,
'or there has been no secret about -.hat
"ecord. Everything that Blease ha*s
lone that it was thought would be
:o his injury has been heralded to
;he world, and these young gentlenen
are only referring to such things
is they deem may be used to his hurt.
Blease is doing the proper thing to
rvo \r r* A f f f " a, /> r* /3 ?*> a a
[/?.? JUW CL ItCU HL/ll IJ lllCiil, CliiU WC 'livyjjti
le will continue the same policy as to
what these men have to sey. They
ire worried just a little because they
are not noticed, and the Record in particular,
among the newspapers, seems
to think that it is doing a great deal
of barm to Blease because he does
not answer them. Well, really there
is nothing to answer. To be sure you
can find something in the record ol
any man that you can criticize legitimately,
and things t'nat you don't
agree with and do not endorse, bu1
mis thing of wholesale denunciator
end the hope of defeating any on(
simply by abusing him the people wy
not stand for it.
* * *
We also attended the meeting a
Greenwood on Saturday and as al
ready stated the attendance was mucl
larger than in Newberry and it wa:
not all the "mill element" either
though there were a good many mil
people present, but t'here were farmer
ther e?or .many miles around. It shouli
be stated as to Newberry that ther
w cre not a great many mill peopl<
at the Newberry meeting for the rea
son that all three cf the mills wer
running just as usual during ' th
speaking. At Greenwood, if you coul
judge :he sentiment of the crowd b;
the applause given each speaker am
the attention given an?l the way i]
which they pressed to the front t
?
| hear t'h^ speaker, Blease had a <lei
cided majority of those at the meeting
on Saturday. We would say that
some five of six hundred left the
grounds when Blease finished his
speech. Of course Smith had finished
aiso. vonservauve men ai-u muse wuu
are not supporters of Blease estimated
the Greenwood meeting about equally
divided between Blease and those who
oppose him. And t'be majority of the
i crowd were farmers.
Judge Jones had a majority of
about 150 in Greenwood county two
years ago in the race for governor. Of
course no one can tell what will be the
i outcome of a primary election. Many
] things may happen to change the
whole trend. We have her given our
impressions as the situation occurs to
! us. We do not claim to know any
i
1 m jre about it than any one else.
j
* * ?
We found a very strong
j
Dominick sentiment in Greeni
( wood for congress. In fact.
I thougn tbere is a candidate from
i Greenwood, the sentiment seemed to
i be that Dominick would carry t'rie
county by a majority in the first primary
and some seemed to think there
j would be no second primary.

Dr. W. A. H.lives Dead.
About the loth or' May, 1864, I
. ?
1 thought it was necessary to use a
j stick on the head of a nurse in the
! Delain hospital. Charlottes-ville, Va.
During the excitement a young man
came to my bunk and asked what was
the trouble. I explained to him how
the nurse had treated me. so he had
the nurse sent o the front and he took
! charge cC me. By his pleading with
j the doctors for me, my leg was put in
! a wire splint and swung from the bed
and with the kind attention of Dr.
Hawes 1 recovered. Three years ago
1 visited Dr. iiawes at <jnariottesviue.
He showed to rae a great deal of kindness
and now he has passed to the
i great beyond. I loved him like an eldj
er brother.
W. G. Peterson.
I The following account of the death
of Dr. Hawes is taken from the Charlottesville
Daily Progress of July 6:
This community suffered a loss in
| the death of D. Waliker Aylett
j fiawes wmc.i occurreu saiuruay
! morning.
I Though born near Hawesville,
1 Ky., in 1840, Dr. Hawes was of
I Virginia ancestry, the son of Aylett
I and Mary Hawes of King William
; county, and his qualities were those
' which our State is glad to claim as
! typical.
T'oo highminded and genuine tc
' be anything but unassuming, Dr
Hawes moved in the community as
skilful physician, generous friend
' and rievotp.ri husband and father.
i Leaving the university as one of the
Southern Guard, Dr. Hawes later became
lieutenant in the well known
King William Artillery company. Ir
1862 he became a member of Campan.v
{ H, of 9th Va. Cavalry and continued
! until the close or the war. He was
(j seriously wounded in the battle oi
Brandy Station and also below Petersi
burg. While recovering from the lat1J
ter wound. Dr. Hawes was an in'
mate of the hospital at Charlottesville
| and during this period pursued ?
. | course ctf: lectures at tne university 01
j Virginia, graduating in 1866 with thf
, degree cf doctor of medicine. After ar
I !
; iniership at the C'harity Hospital b<
> i practiced in King William county un
i ' til 1ST1, when he removed to Xev
i i York city. Here he engaged in genera
!
p ! practice until 1905, when he removet
with his family to Char!ottesvill<
' ! where they have since resided. Ii
