Leou Something About Ira B. Jones. It is right that the people of Sout,' Carolina should know the fact abou the candidates in the race for Governor before the 2:h o' August because n< one can vote properly onless he vote: intelligently and to vote intelligenti one must know the record of the candi dates. This article is written with the purpose o' letting the people know more about Ira B. Jones. . Few people know that Judge Jones i: a man of the people. He is proud o: t 11 e fact that in Newberry county, where he was born. there are still peo ple living who remember that his fath er was a respected carpenter and his mother assisted her husband in the support of the family by sewing for the neighbors. AS STUDENT AND YOUNG LAWYER. Almost from chiidhood Ira 13. Jones looked at life seriousiv. His school mates remember that often in the after noon when they were at lay he woudl go in early to study for his elas,-ei t he next day, and they testify to the fact that he gave early promise of becoming an upright man and a useful citizen. By -areful study and by taking ad vantage of such meager opportunities as were offered, he obtained a fair edu cation. Schools were not then what they are now and that is probabiy the reason Judge Jones remembering his own ditliculties and wishing to smooth the road for other poor boys, declared that, as Governor "The Improvement and Development of the common schools shall have my keen interest, and hearty support." It would be easy to tell and might be interesting to hear how young Jones having gotton an education moved o Lancaster county and began the practice of law. How clients came slowly at first and how later having inspired the con fidence of the people in his home town he acquired a large and paying practice. What we are chiefly interested in, how ever, is his political career. AS LEGISLATOR. In 1890 Ira B. Jones was elected to the Legislature from Lancaster county and it is evident that he was widely known and that his ability had been recognized. for he was at once made chairman of the Ways and Means Com mittee of the House. and was later elec ted its Speaker. These were stirring times, for the great reform movement had just swept over South Carolina and party spirit ran high. Senator Tillman. then Governor, was instituting many needed reforms and Judge Jones. as Speaker of the House. did efficient ser vice. Be it said to his credit, however, that although the whole State was aroused by political animosity. Judge Jones so conducted himself as to receive the hearty applause of friengs and at the same time, by his fairness, he won the respect and confidence of those who had been bis political opponents. AS JUDGE. If came, therefore, as a natural re ward for service that in 1896 he was elected Associate Justice of the high est court in the State. It may be men tioned in passing that his present oppo nent in the race for Governor, seconded his nomination and voted for him as As sociate Justice. Having served twelve years as Associate .Tustice, in 1909, upon the retirement of Chief Justice Pope, Judge Jones was elevated to the posi tion of Chief Justice, which is the high est judimizal position in the gift of the State. It may be truthfully said that no Judge in South Carolina in many years has enjoyed a greater reputation both for ability ano honesty than Ira B. Jones. The same industry and conscien tious performance of duty which was noticeable in him as a young man have characterized his work as a Judge He has been the recipient of honors from his fellow men and the emolu ments of oflice. but the satisfaction of a hard day's work well done has ever been his best re ward. Among the charges hurled at Judge Jones by his polit.ical opponent is that he has leaned towards corporations. Sugice it to say that as attorney he never represented a corporation and as a Judge he repeately upheld large ver dicts against. the corporations. In the case of Rhodes against the Granby Cot ton Mills of Columbia. he upheld a ver dict for $8,000 00 in favor of Rhodes on the ground that there was evidence that he had been unjustly discharged and blacklisted by the cotton mills. The verdicts which lie has sustained against the railroads would run up into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, there being a verdict against the Southern Railway Company for $25,000 and many others for large amounts. He has never leaned either toward or against corporations, but his decis ions and rulings have been those what these of every Judge should be-just and fair to all. CHA RGES UNJUST. As Citizen, Lawyer, Legislator, Judge and Chief Justice, Ira B. Jones has "made good."' He has lived a moral up right life: is a conscientious member of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church, is temperate in his habits;, and has measured up to all the requirements of a true and use ful man. It should be remembered that this man who is now before the people in the race for Gover nor has never in his life been charged with anything unbecoming the highest and best citizen until his opponent brought charges against him. The a b surdity of these charues can best he shown' by the fact that. Cole L. Blease himself 'voted for Judge Jfones for Uni ted States Senator in 1909 with such men as Frank B. Gary, LeGrand Wal ter, J1. L. Coker and other high men. To try to make South Carolinians be lieve 'that this man who has been their highest Judge believes in social equal itv between the races is so evidently a trick to catch votes as to need no expo sure. Ira B. Jones is no political experi ment, and as a Governor, he may be counted on to give the people the same honest, faithful and intelligent service which has always characterized his work in their behalf.
