The governor himself iinorde i the lirsi. ; when iu gave practically hi* entire j time to a discussion f the parole of ! 1-* 4 ...1 , .... . /vll .1 AI* I I\. -A. fllv . . V\ !1U U u5 tuunv-ttu .\Ji ; assault upon his l<>-yiar-o!d adopted daughter. Thong: the governor con-: sinned 30 o. his allotted o-"? minutes i in reading letters and other manu- J scripts on which the parole was based, he said tins was neither an explanation nor an ap-logy. Xor was it, he said, to be considered as a reply to anything that had been said on the stump by opponents, though this .iv v ? i ? n r*i case was me nign ngm in me ureeu- j wood meeting last Saturday. He did this, he said, in answer to certain reports that had been circulated in Abbeville county, and if it had not been for this, he would not have come to Abbeville today. The governor said that Richey, f^/\n orl> + art V* i n r\ 11 no ti* o o All t L.1UU5II pai UlCU, ?> ao v^*w on a $5,000 bond, and that be could ( be reincarcerated at any time, and would be when ins health so improved that it would not impose a burden on the State to keep him in the peni- ^ tentiary. . Answers Charge. , Mr. Jennings added another feature ] when he read editorial comment from the Yorkville Enquirer to the effect \ that Messrs. Jennings and Pollock had t entered the campaign according to a ] carefully prearranged plan to help i Senator Smith and that the selfish ] motive behind it was "probably j money?expenses paid fr<.m some ] other source, and a good bonus in 1 addition." The speaker said that if < + Vi r\ rt-rjo r\ rrantlAmon Vl ^ n'AlllH i luc ctucuvi v? cio a. 5cru.i4vjuiciii i-it, nuuiu j furnish the proof as to the prearrangement or retract it with the same publicity. Mr. Jennings declared tbat otherwise the writer would show himself a liar. The charge about money he den:unced bitterly. The mayor cff Sumter offered to withdraw from the race, and in ?d dition to subscribe $5,000 to the deaf ] and dumb institute at Cedar Springs 2 if the editor will furnish proof of his assertion. . Mr. Pollock, in raking through the , "records"' again today, mentioned an- ; ether member of the governor's staff. | This latest discovery, according to the ( Cheraw candidate, is the son of the man who owned the Kingstree paper t on which James L. Sims of Orangeburg, as a young man, set type. It was for this work that the governor ( so strenuously objected to Mr. Sims' appointment as United States mar- | ( shal, and over which he has gnashed | ( his teeth on many stumps in the | ^ present campaign. j . The speaker today called for the j i first hand primary. After subjecting . the governor's record to a severe grilling, he asked that all those who < indorsed that record to show their hands. The speaker said about 15 shot up. When asked that all t'r.ose W t W who did n:t approve to raise their hands, there was a general flutterW ing of hats and waving o;' arms while c V the grove behind the court house Wf echoed with applause. ? Appause for Smith. . Senator Smith was the first speaker, 1 and was well received and generously ( applauded. He made today his usual c speech in defense of his record, with- 1 out any apology for working five and ; cne-'half years in the interests of the 1 farmers. There were many bursts of 1 spontaneous applause in response to ( his appropriate jokes. When he had ^ concluded he was presented with the 1 unique gift of the campaign, which 1 was a last year's cotton stalk of rank \ growth, with all bolls open, and n:>ne 1 i picked, and with the long staple locks ' ' hanging low from the burrs. There was much applause when this ' was passed up to the stage. Senator Smith began by saying that there had been some comment that I "Cotton" Smith, "Boll Weevil" Smith < and "Cyclone" Smith had done noth- < ing. If he hadn't he said, he was < thankful that 'he was there when the doing was done. He then read the < letter from Senator Smith of Geor- ; 1 gia to the Greenville Piedmont, dis- < ^ claiming any credit .f-cr the Smith,cot- 1 ton bill, whom tie governor had said i was the author. "Senator Smith in- : troduced the original bill," the letter ran, "and if any one has given me xhe lion's share of the credit (for amending and supporting the bill on i the floor of the senate), T regret It. j < To:> much credit can not he given i' your own Senator F 1 \ Smith." mm i Ho tnpn dis'-a.ssed a measure now in : li. committee eonlVivnce. w ic-Ii v?lun L i-eecmes law wirhin the x; : w days, will compel coit-m d-.i'crs u >;? iv>?r t!ii' sa.ne uraiu of <;>:! ?n a e ni raet> < :?

T.. rate of interest to be paid is ! o . -1 per cent., the lowest, lie said, j at w::ich the State had ever been ! i able to borr w funds. By this decreased rate his vetoes of the appropriation bills, he said, had become an economic advantage. ^.s soon as the governor had fin- j ished speaking he left the stage, but I only a scattering few trailed after, j As the chief executive stepped down - "? urii. j mere were repealed cans: oiay aiiu take your medicine, governor." This was answered by: "He can't afford it," which drew much applause. Wl:en k was remarked that few were retiring with the governor to the hotel some one called out: "I bet all those came over from Anderson." Mr. Jennings said t'liat Senator Smith had brought about what he had done for the price of c:tton so miic'i and had talked about it so much that he actually believed that tie had*done these things. "But you ire entitled to 'have some one in the senate who has more than one idea," tie added. In discussing the governor's atti;ude towards the Charleston situation " ;ie mayor of Sumter said that he did J not expect to change one blind tiger ^ ir race track gambler's v:te, but that ^ le did expect to open the eyes o. the people to the fact that t'.iis class of ( people are trying to deceive them into 3 relieving that tnev represent the ( 2ause of the people. 'Mr. Jennings ' made sport of the governor's claims ' < :hat he would turn out the negro mail ' :-lerks when he got to Washington. "He can not do this," the speaker ?xplained, "until he has repealed the jivil service laws, and all the sena- 1 ::rs in the South can't do that." The mly way, he said, these negroes could je deprived of these jobs would be :o repeal the 14th and 15th amendments, thus depriving negroes of citisffnshin rishts. '"Which is the most harmful,'' he asked, "a few mail clerks passing :hrough the State on trains and earn- ] ng an honest living or 900 convicts .urned loose in your community, ( criminals of every conceivable type?" ' Mr. Jennings drew a laugh from 5 ;he audience when he reminded them 1 hat the governor has repeatediy said * ;hat he 'had nothing to explain yet :*ame to Abbeville and consumed his ' entire time explaining one case. In iiscrediting the idea of Ricney's brok- ' ?n health, the speaker said: "Charles . r. Morse, in the federal prison in At:n rendering a patriotic service to the ivas nearly dead. Now he is in the \*orth still robbing tne people." Mr. Pollock, henceforth, will hold ilmost a uniaue n'aoe in South lCaro- i lina politics. The candidate from 2heraw today came to the defense of' :he newspapers of the State and delounced as cheap demagoguery the ittempt to create prejudice thriugh ittacks on the newsappers. The speaker said: "I am tired of :he cheap political demagoguery that las sought to array class against .iass. I am disgusted with the abuse >: the newspapers and the newspaper nen. A free press is essential to j 'ree government, and my experience J s that the newspaper mon?the editors and the -reporters?are as fine a ^lass of our citizenship as any we aave in the State. It is through the > lewspapers that the people are In- ' ?ormed of what is going on. They j :urn on the white light of truth, and j t nnlv thp Hpnia?n?ri]p that wishes I lis real self kept "rom the view of j :he people. It is cnly he who abuses ind villifies the newspapers.
