The St?te. Bisbopville. Aug. 15.?Unexpected twists and turns in campaign issues broke .thick land fast in Bis-iojville today, which meeting beg?.n the final ten day lap of the county to county -four. Cole L. Blease, the first of the five candidates for governor to speak, switched much of his attach J relative to the State Hbspital for the Insane from Gov. Manning directly to C: Fred Williams; superintendent of that Institution. One letter'alleged to have been written by Dr. Williams was read, in which funds were asked or a patient's family that "continued' purchases of ' icies for a patienc ^ rr Blease char set!

Duncan interrupted the speaker long enough to ask if the original letter was in the possession of the ex-govemor. Mr. Blease said he could pro-1 di ce it. In his speech Mr. Duncan charged that it was a fabrication to f( ol the people and that it was the sa,me gag tried upon Dr. Babcock, superintendent of that institution, di ring the heated campaign of fo t ytars ago. A telegram, said to have been sent by Dr. Williams, also was read by ftfr. Blease. in which instructions were asked as to the dis position of the body of a dead patient, and the request made for sufficient deposit t? cover cost of transfer of the corpse. Mr. Blease also read a letter said to have been issued from Manning headquarters in Columbia in * 'hich the charge was made that R. A Cooper was without an i&sue, that he v H I TO COOK" I ection way.

Tlie only reference made to this by Gov. Manning was that it had bee i sent out by a friend of his and that he had not seen the letter. ! . Another high light fn today's meetinz was furnished by Albert S. Fant,, candidate for railroad commissioner, who came back to the stand long alter he had spoken to disclaim the charges that he was a Bleasite. 'Mr. Blfase read from an up country paper the alignment of the candidates. For the office of railroad commissioner Mr. Fant's name led all the rest of alleged Bleasites. "I desire to set myself right with the democracy of my " Mr. Fant said, "and I state here and now that my name is in the wrong category. I am an anti-Blease man." The statement by Mr. Pant drew prolonged applause and many came forward to commend him fo. | this statement asjie left the stand. The meeting today was largely at-] tended, the crowd being estimated by J many to be 1,400 or 1,500. Several hundred of these were said to have been from adjoining counties, which wos amply confirmed by the number of machines from Sumter, Darlington ! and Florence counties. Concerning the campaign letter IMr. Cooper said in his attack upon Gor. j Manning: "The charge iias. been - * ~T adroitly made mat I nave duaauvucu the principles for which. I stood two years ago. On every stump in this campaign I have iterated' and reiterated that I stood exactly v'here I stood then." That he was not a Bleasite, Mr. Cooper said, had been emphasized publicly on different occasions by Mr. Blease 'and: "I stated the same thing myse'if at Bamberg in the presence of Gov. Manning. This charge is intended to convey the im ? t oT-n afraid to take a pression uuai, JL OiU _ definite stand. I want to ask whether Gov. 'Manning has heretofore understood my position. If he "has.

Warnings Glrea. (Asheville, N. C., Aug. 14.?Daylight found the inhabitants of the Keowee ---* T-oii<5va in South Carolina UUU fCUCV,!* still awake anxiously awaiting the crest of the flood waters loosened last night by the breaking of the great dam iat Lake Toxaway, N. C. Warnings of the flood's approach were sent broadcast through Pickens, Walhalla, Oconee and Anderson counties, enab-i ling dwellers in the lowlands to prepare, to move if necessary. The collapse of the dam released a l?ke which covered 550 acres to an t an average depth of 30 feet, but so j far as known no lives were 103-t. At Lake Toxaway village, a noted sumI trior resort, only minor damage was reported. A spring seeping the foun- j dation of the stone and earth struc-j tur.e is "believed to have caused the I collapse. Preparations were made by industrial plants in South Carolina to combat the force of the flood. Gangs were busy strengthening dams and otherwise preparing for high waters. But the crest was only two feet whea it reached Portman Shoals on the Seneca river near Anderson, S. C. The known property damage early today was $50,000?the cost of tine dam. This, however, will not be greatly increased when full reports are in. The crop loss is not heavy.
