REFORM DEMOCRA'TIC PARTY'S STRENGT HSH';WING INCREASE Columbia, Feb. 1-.--The most no ticetble effect of the recent session of the gencial assembly upon politics is the increased strength of the Reform Democratic party. There was a gen eral clarification of issues, which have now narrowed down to the masses of the people on one side and bureaucra cy rule on the other. The Reform party is now practical ly ready for the campaign. The or ganization which was planned at the convention several weeks ago has been largely perfected in the various coun ties, and will be carried forward un til the victory is won in the August primary. Former Governor Blease has received numerous Invitations to make addresses in different parts of the state. He will arrange hsi itin eracy of addresses in such a way as to try to reach all the people be fore the campaign is over. There are now three candidates fdr the United States senate-Messrs. Blease, Tillman and Dial, but it has been realized for some time that the race is really between Blease, repre senting the Reform faction, and Till man, former Reform leader, repre senting the anti-Reformers. There has been very little discus sion here of the McLaurin ltter cut ting himself aloof from both factions. There was some wonderment, howev er, as to what his political purpose may have been, and as to whether or not he expects to be a candidate eithr for governor or for the senate. His letter was in reply to a request from four members of the Anderson delega tion, who are strong Reformers, and several others, that he become a can didate for governor-a high compli ment which they had paid him, and just why, in response to such an in vitation, he should issue a statement scoring both factions, caused some J '~ The Kirstin the Cheaj i V to Cleai Ofcourse, you want growing in place of Especially this year wher prices-when every bit of for so much-never bef' e land, never before coDitd yot ly, easily and cheaply.

Mrs. Worthey Says She Gladly Gives It Endorsement SPARTANBURG WOMAN "It Helped Me In Every Way I Need * ed Relief," Is Her Statement "Tanlac proved to be a good tonic and stomach remedy for me and it helped me in every way I needed re lief," declared Mrs. J. J. Worthoy, of 08 Railroad' Ave., .Arkwright,, ar tanburg, in a statement she gave June 7th. "I was troubled a great 'deal with indigestion and my whole system was run down. My a ppetite was about gone. I was troubled awfully with nervousness, and headaches caused me a lot of suffering. When I had one of those bad nerov'us attacks, I could not rest at night. The Tanlac quiet ed and strengthened my nerves, though, and I soon was eating hearti ly, and thd indigestion left me in a little while. Those headaches were re lieved quickly, too. In a short time I was feeling a great deal better. I am glad to endorse Tanlac, for it helped me in every way." Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is sold by Dickson's Drug 'Store, Manning; I. W. Nettles, Jordan, Shaw & Plow den, New Zion; Farmers' Supply Co., Silver; D. C. Rhame, Summerton. Adv. sion the Reform party stood for poul la rgovcrnment, as opposed to the present mixture of oligarchy, autocra cy and bureaucracy. It is with this record behind it that the party enters confidently upon the campaign of 1918. There are now three members of the Reform party in the race for gov ernor: Messrs. John G. Richards, Thomas H. Peples and W. A. Stuck ey. y Major Richards, who' is chairman cf the state railrctad comn:issioi an nounced definitely during the session. Messrs. Peeples and Stuckey had pre iously announced. If all three of these gentlemen continue in the race and there are no othr entries on the reform side, one of them will go into the second race with some one of the anti-Reform candi.lates. The anti Refermers so far announced arc: Messrs. R. A. Cooper, of Laurens, and A. J. Bethe., of Columbia. The friends of Mr. Cooper'claim that he is the logical anti-Reform man to make the race by reason of his work for Manning after the defeat of Cooper himself in the summer of 1916. Lieut. Gov. Bethea contends that he is enti tied to promotion and says that he is no the candidate of any clique. With Blease elected to the senate on the first ballot this summer, as every in <jication points to now, and the Re form candidate leading in the first race, the Reform party is confident of victory all along the line. With Major Richards positively a candidate for governor, and therefore, not a candidate for re-election as rail road commissioner several names names have been mentioned in con nection with this office. Mr. D. L. Smith, of Colleton, now seed inspec tor of the department of agriculture, and former member of the house from Colleton, is practically definitely an nounced. Mr. Banks I. Caughiaqn, for mer railroad commissioner, says that he is going to make the race. Proni inently mentioned in this connection also are Mayor Vance Davidson, of Chester, and others. Trhe name of Mr. Hf. C. Summers, Jr. member of the house from Anderson county, has b~een urged by his friends as a candidate for state office, but it is understood that his ambition is to rep~resenlt Anderson county in the state senate, and that he wvIll be a candidate for that honor. In the race for attorney general th .'e are twvo anlnouinced canididates, Assistant Attorney General Sapp, who has been aligned with the Re form Party during his career in poli ties, and Mr. R. P. Searsoni, Jr., of Barnwell1. Mr. George WV. Wightmann, of Saluda, has statedl positively that he will opp'ose Mr. W. Banks Dove for secretairy of state. The Clover Messenger of York county, has suggested the following ticket, but (does not state whethe. all the gentlemen named ha've given any innIatio~n as to wvhether or not they will be in the running.

It is generally conceded, however, that the political effect uk9on either faction will not be considsra ble. That South Carolina would be ben efited if factionalism could be elim nated goes without saying. This does not mean that a one-party state or a one-party nation would be altogether desirable as long as human nature is what it is. The idea is that the bit terness of the factionalism which has cha'racterized some campaigns in the past could be eliminated to the advan tage of the state. The Reform party urges this, but its position, as borne out by the facts ,is hat it is a party representing the interests of the great masses of he people, and that when it speaks th popl themselves are speaking-and speaknig at this par ticular time in an effort to ttake their own state government back into their own hands. The Reform pary ha sbeen charged by a prominent anti-Reform newspa per, even since the adjournment of th legislation, with aligning itself against measures to purify the ballot. As matter of fact all the Reform par ty asks, or has ever asked, is a free ballot and a fair count. When the so called "Australian ballot" sytsem came up in the house at the past ses sion, its imperfections, as called at tention to at the time by the Charles ton American ediorially, were realized, and leading Reformers voted against it on second reading. On third read ing with soma amendments which were agreed upon, perfecting the measure as far as it could be per fected at that time. Mr. Summers, a brother- in-law of Goveri.or Blease, and the other deform representatives, Loted for it, and dt was passe-l and sent to the senate, where he Anti Reformers are in an overwhlming majority. The senate killed it, but resurrected it and amended it so as to practically nullify it, making it ap ply only to incorporated towns and cities. It was a Reforme membere of the state Democratic executive com mittee who following the election of 1916, when the Reformers kn;w thoy had bcn robbed of the el'3cticn, in troduced - a resolution, which was adopted by the committee, favoring the "Austrailian ballot." The record of the party in standing for the purity of the ballot speaks for itself, and can not be truthfully contradicted. The positicn of the Reform party as to extravagance was again made plain tt the recent session. They stubborn ly fought many items in the heavy appropriation bill-the largest in the tion in South Carolina-and on sev. oral of these the house agreed with them. But thesenate rewrote the bill, as it usually does, and most of the items wcn in. As a resul the already heavy burden of taxation under which the people are laboring has been ma terially increased. The Refgorm party again also made clear its position as to the rule of the people in choosing state officials. They fought for the measure t., make the office of the chief game warden elective by the general assembly, as thy had fought for the measures pass ed last year, and still hald up by the governor's veto, to make the office elective by the people. The bill this year again got through the senate, but could not be pushed through the house. The Manning administration pro gram would have put the selection of chief game warden in the hands of a board, and would have taken the selec tion of commissioner of agriculture out of the hands of the people, adn made this office elective by a board also. The latter measure failed to get through. The Reformers in the gen eral assembly did not hav sufficient strength of themselves to have defeat ed it, but htey were practically solidly opposd to it.
