Columbia, Aug. 25.?Between three four thousand Democrats of upper South Carolina gathered at Pickeiio today to hear a discussion of issues former Governor Blease, Congressman Fred H. Dominick of the Third district; Hon. W. A. Stuckey, ot L.ee ?ouaty, and others. The positions or Idr. Blease and Mr. Dominick upon national issues were applauded to tbe *echo, and at the conclusion of Mr. Blease's address the big audience in its enthusiasm, demanded that he * 1 '? flia tror iafce a nana primary upuu ?? Ui aw s^e. *1 want every man in this audience 'who would have voted, as Dominick voted, against this war to hold up his right hand." There was a spontaneous raising of hands by the several thousand people. "1 want every one of you oppose-3 to this war now and in favor or bringing it to the speediest success . ful conclusion to hold up his right band." he asked; there was the same response, and among hurrahs for Dominick. "Now, if there is any man here that loves a dollar better than !he floes the life of his "boys, let him put up his hand/' There was no response. moMiriqr WAS ntie Of the ttiggeSt M. iit m w _ _ in South Carolina since the last campaign. Congressman Dominick, in giving an account of his stewardship, made an able defense of his vote in congress against the war resolution, and against .conscription, and later, once war was declared and the drart 2sw enacted in support of various * winintorton^o of tllP measures lor 111C iliaiill.vuwiivv armies and of the nation during the 'war emergency, the audience expressed its approval of his course in no ~5fn?certain terms and both he and Mr. "Blease were accorded real old-time novations, and Prof. Stud*. nnounc<ed his platform for govern >1 and was IpCTOO a cordial reception. Governor Blease took the same position in retrard to national issues as stated toy TMm in previous addresses at Pomarla, ^Filbert and Carswell. He scored the "present state administration unmercrTnlly and urged the people now to ae*3pn to organize in the interest of taking their own government back into "ffbeir own hands. He denounced Senator Tillman as a traitor to the Re Swnm party and said if Tillman was a ^candidate for re-election to me senate Taext summer lie expected to tell him ?bo on forty-five stumps throughout the state if "he has the manhood to come ^and not holler. "I am too ill to /a(?e 'the {Hsople/' in other words, play the laby act and stay at home. He said "that Mr. Dommlck stated that "Per 'siting was sent to capture Villa." Possibly so, but "he (Blease) would like tto know what Pershing's private instructions as to fVilla really were, mud if "he had not better luck catching Bill than he did Villa, he was in a bad ffix or a failure." 4 Hon. A. Stnckej"The sobering wa? held in the grove <tq the . court house square. Hon. fames P- Cary, Jr., presided. Senator W. A.; Stuckey, of Lee candidate for governor in the primary next summer, stated his platform upon ecoattomie-. issues. He said he had no controversy with any man respecting the war provided he would throw his shoulders to the wheel and with might and main help bring it to a speeiy and successful conclusion. .... ~While we are making democracy ?afe in the world let us not forget to make it safe in our own country." 'He urged farming should he placed on **he plane which it ought to occupy TSbrough education. Consolidation cr TUMii schools, industrial schools for tthe -laboring classes, the federal re1 ? (tab/ITWI mopVotinc OVa wtv6 i'ah) u gcuci ai jjuaiuvmug ? '<tem and rural credits were among measures which be advocated. He wanta law passed requiring candidates "for office to file their platforms witn "dheir pledgee. Hob. Fr?d H Dominick Congressman Fred H. Dominick was ireceived with applause. "I went to -congress," lie said, "at a time when the greatest thing in the mlatlng 01 history was going on yet known to tne TCrid. Since I voted against the war resolution I have maintained silence -?s"t3E>ttne conduct of the war or as to "4he "propriety of this country entering the war. I have put my shoulder to 4he Wheel, and by my votes and actons have -shown my loyalty to my jwintrv "rmfh withstanding that I have ibeen charged with cowardice and disloyalty. I do not propose to discuss today why we are at war. That quc'r*xicm has been decided. But since I e. - toave heen attached T do propose Co state why I voted against this"war or that w^r fipstion in the worcs of Claude Kitchin, it too"k neither moral I f , nor physical courage :o vote for a war , for other people to light." | "Prior to America entering tiie war there was hardly a day that England didn't violate American rights on the j high seases, and in spite of our protest ! she paid no attention to our righls. i | The United States stayed out of war ' then because we know that England , was not after us, but trying to cripple j Germany. And if we had exercised I the same forbearance with Germany 1 tlmf n'n .Hir} with ' 3.110. n.6r SU UIJLicl lilies uiai v? ^ v**v% I ! England and her mines, American ; ships would not have been sunk and i American lives would not have been ; lost. When the European war broke j out we sent our ships and our monev to Europe to get our people out of the war zone, and then our citizens went i J into the war zone and plunged us in I the war." i Mr. DominicK referred to the Mexi-, can embroylio and compared it with | the German situation. The forces sent i | into Mexico to capture Villa were firort i upon by Mexican troops of Carranza I i the legal head of the Mexican govern-, ment. but we forebore to go to war ! against Mexico. These were in subctanr:p among: his reasons for voting f against the war resolution and he had j no apologv to make. \ Puppets i "I have been accused of being | against the administration," he said, j "but the president of the United Stat- j ; es and the members of congress get I thir commissions alike from the peoI pie," and the speaker was vigorously 'J ?- rn o n ! applauded wnen ne sam tuai, a. uiau i who went to congress to vote simply as he was told by the president had : no business in Washington. He had ; voted as he had felt it his duty to ,1 vote, he said. He had voted for the volunteer system because he thought A?^ f*V> r\ /Iroff , it was tne proper system, uui mc i system having been enacted, it was the duty of the people to obey it, and for every man to assist in its enforcement. lUnder the volunteer system, he said, he supposed there would hav?s been a half million volunteers in this state the way some people had talked about "my people clamoring for wat\'* and there were some people now who foiWncr rmVMv hi? about other "CIC C> people's duty to fight and those doing . .most of the big talking were over tha age limit The United States now had under 1 arms, he said, nearly a million volun-1 /teers, and he referred to the volunteer I svstm in other countries, citing the . figures to sbow how effectively they , had worked. i Negroes in Camp I ? Taking up the announced decision! ' of the War Department to sena negroes to Camp Jackson and otner ! southern camps for training, he said 1 it was an outrage on decency for ne- \ 'groes to be placed alongside white! troops lor training. That it ( ' A i-*-* " f A IACO I would be Detier ior tue BUlkCO i.u iuuu ! all camps and cantonments rather! than suffer such a disgTace ana hu-j "miliation, and he was surprised thatj ! a Democratic, administration would l 'determine upon such a course. "Ani! when it had been determined upon ~ -~ nrUn >10/1 /?ritv?izAd me i' some <J1 tllV/SC rt uv? uuvi ( for casting a vote here and the against \ measures advocated by the admlnis, tration were the first to wire the contgressmen for help and to get on tne j train and go to Washington and entel (their protest.

Loud and long applause greeted this statement, in this connection he read a publisher! ; statement saying that the War Depart' ment had announced that in a war for j democracy there should be no racial , or class distinction. | Congressman Dominick referred to his votes for the revenue and food control bills, for $600,000,000 for the aviation corps and other measures for the support of the armies and of the j nation in the conflict, one vote he sales * * ? i. j j" the newspapers na& uot unuuiztm mm I on "was his vote against the press ceaI sorship bill, and he was the omr ?South Carolina member who voted to j kill the iniquitous measures. ReferI ring to pending resolutions in con( gress, he said, "We are in this war, this country has its aims for bernjj j in this war, and the concrete objects I for whch. it is being waged should :>e (definitely stated. What these^oonrete ; objects are I must confess that the ' * - ?-f 1?

He quoted President Wilson's former ...statements along this line, and said: j "Let each of the warring nations sav what they want and what will satls^' , them and let them see if they can't f ^et together and slop this miserable massacre of men and wealth." The Third district, lie said, was see-' o::d :) iu:ie :n Ijyalty and partiotism, and had so proved in response to every call which had been made. He ex pected to continue to vote and act n congress as he felt for the best inter-, ests of his district and the nation. Ex-(*overnor Blease : -i.: ?; r- ti-o f /- } ? \x?r\T.* "Urganiziiuuii is mc naivii..v/.u, and now is the time to start." sail Former Governor Cole J...

Thus did Mr. Blease speak to the democratic voters of upper' Soum Carolina, at Pickens today in regard to state politics, and as to the national issues, which he discu$secl along with state issues, me reiterated trie position taken by him at Pomaria, Filbert and Carswell. "No man wants the United States to back down, or curl it? tail and run," he said, in c:scussing the war, "but if we can have an honorable peace without slaughtering our young manhood, who can objec. Let each man, instad of bombast and billinsgate, answer this question. Are you in favor of an honorable peace?peace without sacrifice of principle? Let him answer that plainly and distinctly, and then next year we will know how each man stands." Most Progressive PaD?r ! During the course of his address, Mr. Blease paid a fine tribute to The j Charleston American. "We mow hare a daily newspaper which is on the ; side of the people," he said, "ana which is with us, and it is now makj ing the same kind of mangnificent 1 fight for the reform -party which It I'made in the campaign last summer, when we won the election only to have it stolen from us because the machinery was against us. T refer to The Charleston American. In tnrs newspaper we can get our side before the people; through it we can defy iae aany press 01 me state 10 snut our mouths while they lie about us. and mislead the people. And I want to urge you to support The Charleston Amrican. I trust that you will sul*scribe for it and read it, and through ic we can keep in touch with eac!i other. It is a people's paper; it deserves your support; its news !s the brightest and freshest published by any newspaper ia" the state, and it is fair, and it believes in the rule of the people. I want to see it circulated widely all over South Carolina, and I want you, my friends to take It and read it."

No Disloyalty Let it be understood that there is no disloyalty in South Carolina .n this war emergency. Of course there may be instances here and there whicn show a 'ack of proper patriotism, hat men of all factions and creeds are be-' hind the government.. . - . There is a difference .of. opinion a=; to what loyalty consists of. That is the crux of the matter. Tnere rs no doubt that a rrajority of the people J of the state want the speediest peac? with honor and withou sacrifice in' principle. They are expressing tlie?. disapproval iri no uncertain terms o: tnose wno oy tneir puoiic expressions seem o wan the nation to fight simpiy to conquer.

But they arD hoping and praying Tor an honorable peace at the earliest practicable moment, and for action looking towards the speediest success- j ful ending of this war. and tbey are going to vote that wav next summer. Several days ago there appeared in ? ? ? ? n a r\ Ann /YATl 111* T*0 ? Olie Oi uie nc vvayapci a garded as a spokesman for the ant'*Reform party a comparison of the attitudes of Congressman Dominick, of the Third congressional district and or 'Congressman Nicholls. of the Fouth district. It was urged that Congress man Nicholls in his Union speech ha ? xpressed the sentiments of Congressman Dominick's district as well as of Kz-vtVl tlioao (TOT). Ills U '.V II. ICS LCI UttJ uyj I.U ^ tlemen spoke in their respective districts. That Congressman Dominlc-K has the people of the Third district with him in his position in regard to the war, no one who attended tiie meeting at Pickens could have the slightest doubt. The crowd gathered, there represented nearly every county. in his district, and it was a gathering of intelligent voters, who came to hear and to decide for themselves? and to make up their own minds as to how they are going to cast their ballots next summer?for the cami , paign of 1918 is now really under way. They were with Mr. Dominick anl | they showed it plainly and clearly. "So DisagreemenJ ! An analysis of the addresses delTv' ered by Congressman Dominick at T>:Vvtt PnncrrACjsmfln NichOllS , Jr icivciia auu uy vu"o? ? at Greenville shows that there is absolutely no disagreement bet-we** them as to the duty of the people to support the government in the prosecution of the war. The difference between them is $hat Congressman Domwo a nTv-v-?Rfxd to entering into liilVA. " MkJ _ I the war?that he wants the country a war aims stated so that the peopio may understand, and that he waa?.s each of the warring natioas to "gay what they want and what will satisfy them and let them see if they cau't get together and stop this miserable massacre of men and wailth." The Third district, he said, was second to none in loyalty and patirotism, an? v..j Tv?/w?k/i ?r? rfxmnnsft to ever? litiu. au jjiuh-u m < call which had been made, referring to the subscriptions to liberty bonds. Red Cross fund and other matters. Congressman Nicholls is quoted as saying at Greenville: "I am going back to Washington and tell my fe% lew members of congress, cabinet officers and the president; that I am proud of the 'Old Iron District' of South Carolina, whose people are standing by the Stars and Stripes." \ Congressman Nicholls could truthfully tell the Washington authorities the same as to the Third district, ancl all the other districts of South Carolina, and just as truthfully he could go further ancl tell them that the sentiment of all the districts of the state i at this time is for he speediest successful peace with honor along tne line of "Congressman Dominick's Plc*ens speech. \ational Issues It is altogether probable that tns state campaign in South Carolina next summer judged from expressions of opinion from mo^t- of the "counties or - " ? t trie state, will revoive ia.rgei.y aiuuuu national issues. Recent political an-1 I nouncements in this correspondence in The Charleston American have gone a, long way towards definite:? fixing the status of the campaign, and have been the subject of widespread comment by the people and in tha press. The Greenville Piedmont, lip, i nthe country "where the political cam-! paign received impetus yesterday, editorially discusses the probability that former Governor Blease wll make the race for the Unite# States senatf against Tillman, and says: Tillman "The Piedmont has always believed and asserted that Tillman would see* another term in the senate. It mar*?' a prediction to that effect "when Tin-j man was being quoted by all the pa pers as saying that he would volun- i tarlly retire at the end of his present1 term. It never had any doubt on that score and, to make an Irish bull, it now has les?u And the Piedmont will be very much surprised if Blease doe? +V?o t?o ?,a TM11m*n's onno Bent Unless the other Taction can work a -pre-campaign eliminator, it -will be represented by quite a number of seekers after the gnbernatrolal nomination--next year. There is a present prospects.-therefore, that the 1916 campaign -be at least a? lively .p,s those of the 3ast deeade. T?>e Piedmont has a notion, however, that tTip <5ifnofi/>Ti next voar ^'ill afford a most inviting opportunity to some a- f strong man vviiu adj not Leon Gad''.- ' s:veiy identiiied with partisan polities in South Carolina in recent years. There is talk that such a man will :je in tne gubernatorial race/' The Piedmont gives no indication' as to who its "dark horse" may b?\! ? ... K,v A Ac>i'nTTf*7V ! Ulie Itiliig ilia* UK uunu.vvj however, that the people of Sout.V Carolina next year are not going to elect any man governor who does no'.' take a positive and definite stand upon the issues, both state and national, about which they are now thinking and making up their minas. As to the Tillman prophecy, the Piedmont makes the same prediction: which has already been made in this1 t 1 correspondence?that Senator Tillman v.i?l b? a candidate for re-election anal that the race tor the senate is go;n? to narrow down, to all intents and purposes, between o'.nator Tilimau a /"lr?varnnr Rlease. Mr. y ilu iui nici uuiv?"v ? Blease made the significant statement in his address at Pickens yesteraaj.1 as reported in this correspondence: [ "He denounced Senator Tillman as i a traitor to the reform party and, said if Tillman was a candidate rvi < re-election to the senate next summer! he expected to tell him so on 45; stumps throughout the state if he iias the manhood to come ana not holier, * * 1 1 a vi/v tiaanl o'* 'i am too in to late luc pcuyit , other words, play the baby act an3 stay at home.'' Blease for Senator That was taken by the audience as1 ??0 nncitivo annnnncpmpilf pi cfCiivjaiij ^/von,* i v , that Mr. Blease would be in the senatorial race next summer, j As indicative of the attitude takon t by Mr. Blease in regard to this macter it may be stated that when asKecr the direct question by a newspaper ; man in Greenville yesterday morning [ if he had any political announcement to make, lie was correctly quoted as saying: "I will not be a candidate for any offiice next year so far as I know." Then Mr. Blease's statement in his addres was made several hours later, after he had reached Pick ens, and had been approached by hundreds of people urging that he make tli^ race for either the governorship or the senate. It can be stated as a positive fact, in view of the atateaaemt i& the Pickens speech that Mr. EIea3e will be in the race for the [Baited States I senate unless developments between . now and the campaign should bo such that he can serve the reform party better in some other capa-Jty. That he will not be a candidate for govern nor, however, he again stated positively tn his Pickens speech, j *? Splits i The anti-reform party, (what is left I of it), continues to try to make it ap: pear that there are "splirs*' in the I reform faction in regard to the war question. , If the reform faction had split into as m?ny pieces as lias been ! the effort to mate it appear, it would now have been split into about 80,000 of 90,000 pieces, each individual form, ing a "wing" of his own. The reform ; party, however, as matter of fact, is more solidly lined up behind the principles for which it has fought :n recent years, than it has ever been before. Again Quoting from the Piedmont up in the section where the campaign has been active lately: 1 "If Blease's speeches meant anything at all they meant a clear-cut break with these men, for a politician is not apt to remain politically friendly with a man who asserts that he ought to lose his public office. But the Columbia correspondent of The Charleston American,, who has a;habit of ed totalizing as to the news he sends his paper, asserts that thos<? who are counting on a break between Blease and some of those who have been hig political friends because of ' his Po maria and Filbert speeches are malting a miscalculation. We shall see what we shall see." Evidence of Fear i it may be stated that in thi smove- J meat of the people which is now cuder -way, probably no one man or se? of men .is necessary to its success. But these cries of "splits" are nothing but an evidence of the f?3r with whicn the anti-reform part/; now sees the movement gathering headway. The ballots in 1938 will tell the story, when ll 1 11 ... _ ,U,- 11 _ ? ~ " we suau ova w*tai smm . There is another thing about this people's movement at this time which is worthy of at:eution. Herotoiorw when there have been popular poJitl-j cal uprisings it has been when tnc| farmers were worried about crops and other matters. Today, however, ] with cotton bringing a fine price ancr with bountiful crops of cotton and corn and foodstuffs?probably, tne Dest crop outiooK wmcn oouui i aro- j llna has faced in the past quarter of a century?they are conducing th? movement not under any impulse of the moment, but in cold, sober thought in the interest of making democracy safe at home as well aa'abroad.

"Waggoner of St. Joseph county, applied two hundrett I pounds of acid phophate to the acre, ' on all but a small part of a field sown d to wheat From the fertilized i>art aa J secured 22.4 bushels of wheat to tie ! acre, and on the unfertilized, iz.ri J ' Knohalo -n r*-ra n cretin r\f 0 AH UV/ VMi^ A V W VI. ?/ # bushels, due to fertilizing." fl This year two hundred pounds of fl acid .phosphate will cost about $2.28, I end wheat is worth $2.00 per busJiet ! On this basis the increase secured dr Mr. Waggoner would e be wort* | $19.80 and the profit after counting I expenses of applying fertilizer ant* * I paying for harvesting and marketing the increased crop would be more I than $5.00 an acre. If this isVt n j case of swapping dollars for eagles | it comes very near to it. j The Ohio experiment station oi i booster, as an average for the last I twenty-two years, has secured an ?*j crease of 8.0 bushels of wheat to the i I acre from an application of 169 1 I pounds of acid phosphate to ttie acre. I i The unphosphated yield has been 11.2 U I bushels and the phophated 19.3 H i bushels. Where 1000 pounds of potash has been added to the phosp&ae, the yield has been 20.4 bushels t? the Sucre, or an increase of 1.2 bushels I more than was secured from phosphate alone. Even at present prtee* for wheat and before-war prices tor . potash the increase in the wheat was not sufficient to pay the eoet ?f | the potash. The addition of potaefc to fertilizer containing phosphor us an? 1 nitrogen -will not be profitable wkea applied to clay and loam softs. Nine farmers out of ten should ?tertilize wheat this fall.
