convention at Kansas City, but each j
of his competitors was hard at work

Piedmont was the favorite stamping
ground for the candidates for State
offices. Barbecues, picnics and other

Democratic hurdle were remarkable

Mr. N. W. Brooker for comptroller

when he attacked MoMahan's appointing

to injustice of demurrage, the charge
of a dollar a day for use of car on

unload car. and the car often remains
there empty for days.
Maj. Barney Evans renewed It is
charges that the people of Soutli Carolina
are paying the highest local
tariff of any State. This is because the
railroad commissioners are either ignorant
or are bought.
Mr. T. N. Berry was a candidate on
his business qualifications. no; on oratorical
qualities. lie spoK?? in behalf
of prohibition. The dispensary may
lie a stepping stone, but the State has
been standing cut that stone long
enough.
Sickness in his family prevented Mr.

there were white men 011 one aide,
black men on the other and dogs in
the aisle. At some cf the meetings
there had been two-legged (logs. He
was glad of the orderly way in wltieli
he was reserved. The question of education
is higher than that of liquor,
but liquor has been made the paramount
issue of tlie campaign. (J. wait
Whitman, who has been suspected of
dispensary inclinations. declared in favor
of license?-not high license, but
just simple licenseHe

hiinseli had said. "Whitman, vou have
got more sense thanall your competitors..
Init you haven't got the pull."
Frank H. Gary congratulated Georgetown
on tli** progress evident. We replied
with great feeling to the Intimation
by Whitman that the Gary family
had been too much in office. He wns
running as an individual. '*Whon my
forefathers were battling for their
country, where were you. sir. he asked,
shaking his linger atWalt. "While
my people were lighting for their
country, the forefathers of that fellow
at Manning (Appelti who started this
insinuation against my candidacy were
fishing on the hanks of the Jordan." ,
Continuing. Gary denied that he was
opposed to the dispensary. The friends
of the governor, fearing his (Gary's)
growing too strong, had determined ,
thar something must he done to kill ;
Gary off. and they had circulated a report
that he opposed the dispensary j
law He warmly asserted his allegi- j
anee to the dispensary, hut was will-1
ing to eoucedeprohlbltion to unwilling 1
counties.
Since the gauge of battle had been
thrown down, he would accept the
ehallenge. During his six years service
as speaker, he had known Tilmanite.
no Conservatice, had shown no
partisan preference and in this campaign
had made no partisan utterances.
But there is an attempt to defeat
him because he is a Clary and a Tilnvanite.
Fie was a Tillmanite when
Tillman needed friends and not when
he became powerful.
Patterson was the next speaker.
was glad that the county .to county
campaign had not been abolished. It
guarantees free speech. Briefly referring
to the educational question, he
spoke of the good features of the dispensary
No plate glass mirrors, no
cut glass decanters, no obscene pictures
on the walls, no street strikers,
no selling to drunkards and to minors,
lie would like to see absolute prohibition.
but it is impracticable, lie had
when 23 years old been prohibition
ehairman in his county, and had seen
It fail. People would vote prohibition
tpnl patroniae blind tigers. Over a
million dollars of liquor is annually
sold illegally in prohibition Maine,
while in South Carolina with double
the population the sales were practically
less. Crime Is being fostered by
prohibition in Maine and Iowa, as well
us political and social distemper. Col.
Hoyt is not asking for prohibition.
Under his proposition the State would
get no revenue from the sjile of liquor
but it would be sold, for under the Wilson
net people within the State can
send to other States and get all the liquor
they want The Columbia State,
the bitterest enemy of the dispensary,
and a friend of high license, is supporting
Col. Hoyt because he (Hoyt) last
fall favored coalition. Col. Hoyt >a.vs
that he is not responsible for the support
of The State. He knows that
Gonzales is a heavy yoke on his neck,
and he is trying to get out of it.
"\\ heuever The State and News and
Courier tell the truth, you may know
that the miilenium i? at hand." exclaiined
Patterson. Patterson produced
a letter from Jim Tillman in which
the latter declared untrue ail interview
in the local columns of The News and
Courier in which it was said that Jim
Tillman had denounced Patterson, for
arraigning the newspapers. Tillman's
letter stated further that there were
other inaccuracies in the interview.
Patterson said he would not arraign
MeSweeney in the latter's absence
Col. Hoyt closed the debate. His
candidacy, he said, is giving his opponents
a lot of trouble. In reply to Patterson
ho said that the latter favors
the prohibitive features of the dispensary
law, then why not prohibition?
Patterson is also attacking the enforce
mont of the very law which he (Patterson)
supports, lie also answere.l
Patterson's statement that more liquor
is sold in Maim than in South Carolina.
Patterson had compared the
amount of liquor sold illegally in one
irtato with that sold legally in South
Carolina. How much liquor is sold illegally
in South Carolina? Col. Iloyt
i then stated that Patterson had falsilied
his position on coalition. He had
merely urged tlie prohibitionists in the
legslaturc to unte with others to overthrow
the dispensary law. in order to
pass a prohibition law When the legislature
refused to do anything with
the dispensary he (Iloyt > had stepped
baek upon his prohibition platform
and is there today, without qualifications.
Any man who says that he is
today in coalition with any influences
I and that he will he so influenced when
governor talks foolishness. He then
paid his respects t?? Clary. The latter
is now advocating local option between
prohibition and dispensary, and
yet he refused to vote for the Robinson
bill last winter. He twitted Walt
Whitman for changing lik platform.
Walt is opposed to the dispensary, he
is opposed to prohibition, in fact i.Caere
anything in the world which he
is not opposed to?
The candidates for lieutenant governor
concluded the (innnlfln? r>.. 1
i ? ??? v/vm.
Hlease defended the dispensary. He
favored liberal support of State colleges.
Init he was not in favor of the
method of granting scholarships
Col. Tillnian stated thai the education
of the n< gro mentis social equality,
u in alga nrnt ion and finally damnation
to the white man. There are not a.oOP
pure bred white men In Cuba, where
the races ndngle in Sbrlal gatherings.
Col. Livingston raid thai the river
which pas.-cs through ids county slcirts
the city ol Georgetown. He hoped that
it would not he long until there would
be bands of steel connecting Georgetown
and Marlboro.
Col. Winkler declared that lie believed
in the dispensary, not as a
money making institution but as a
iui< <>i huihiuu, intemperance.
Col Sloan, the last speaker, hurried
through his speech, as it was but a few
minutes until train time. He made a
few local hits and referred pleasantly
to Georgetown's growth. j
Speaking at K.njjstree.
Kingstveo. Special. There were
about 200 honest farmers of Williamsburg
who listened attentively to the
political speakers here.
It looked like a scrap when W. D.
Evans got up from his chair on the
stand and started across the stand toward
Bnrney. ltut no accident happened.
Gary gaffed Patterson and
Hoyt renewed his charge that Gary is
supporting local option now. but didn't
in the legi.iblture,
The ball was opened by Capt. Jennings.
Dr. Timmerman was not here.
Brookrr andDeerham warmed the boys
up a little bit. Brooker charged De'-|
ham with allowing treasurers to make
settlements whenever the latter want
to. Derham, interrupting, said this
was untrue. Brooker said he could
prove it in the record for 1897 in Richmond
county. Derham said that he
was contradicting Brooker's atntement.
They agreed to talk it out at
t 'Florence.
; Capers made the crowd holler b?
assailing McMahan for naming a tlag

BuuiM-r wno was teaming at :ne sumi
mer school.
McMahan was not her if.
Col. Floyd said WUlinmsburg had
boon one o/ the banner counties. He
wanted to keep its support.
Dr. Rous?* was absent.
Th.e candidates for Railroad Commissioners
made about their usual
. speeches.
j Gary was the first speaker for the
i office of governor. He for the first
time referred to the fact that he has
no papers backing hint up. He'reiterated
his support of the dispensary,
and jumped on prohibition, out advo
rated local option between the two.
He produced the record showing that
he had voted for the Archer bill as
amended by Winkler so as to allow
cigch county the right to establish or
to remove dispensaries.
Col. Hoyt said he had not referred
to the Archer bill, but to tlie bill prepared
by Mr. Robinson cf Anderson,
which provided for a vote etweon d;s "
pensary and prohibition. Gary charged
coalition between blind tigers and
Ijm uiiiuii mil id sqiiffir nit" me mil OI
the dispensary. He accorded Si I honor
to honest prohibitionists, but .vanted
honest men not to lie persuaded
to vote for prohibition. He again stated
that factional lines had been
drawn against him as he was a Gary
and a Tillmanite. He wants to be
measured as an individual.
Patterson began by saying that .while
Mr. Gary is discussing local option, he
would discu.-s the dispenar.v. Nobody
in the campaign has said anything
about tlie Gar.vs holding ofttce until
yesterday, when Walt Whitman said
something ahout it. Nobody is attacking
Gary for supporting Tillman.
He said that Gary didn't have the
courage to come out in favor of the
dispensary at Charleston.
Gary?That is absolutely untrue.
Patterson said that at Charleston
he had asked Gary if the latter wsui
n favor of high lieense for Churn ston,
tad the latter riid that his position
was understood by the crowd
Gary?I asked the crowd if they,
wanted me to explain my position
iftain. and they said no.
Patterson?But the people of South
arollna must have an explanation.
Gary?The people know how 1
stand. You are the only one who does
not, and you haven't got the hi.sin.-, to
take it in. I can't give thcnt to you.
Patterson then paid his respect to
prohibition. Everybody in South Carolina
knows that if Gonzales take up
a fellow It heats that lellow. ami so
Col. Hoyt says he did not s" U tl
port of Gonzales.
Patterson then hrg:.n on ii ;- a> :i
ey. making the same < !i;?: . t>f n<menforcement
of the lav.- Me aside a
new point." that Mr. W it. ot the
firm of Welch ft Eason of harlcsfon,
runs a blind tiger, ;ind has a I'nited
States revenue license. Yet McSweeney
has commissioned him a member
of the Charleston- county hoard of control.
McSweeney stated that he ??nd not!;
iuk iu uo wan u. The appointmeat*
were made by the legislative delegatlon
from Charleston.
McSweeney looked bright and fresh
after bis rest. He stigmatized Patterson's
charges as little, absurd and
llimsy. Did Patterson mean to i hurg>
that the editor of the county paper
could he bought for a "dollar and n half
a year? As to granting I'uitod States
licenses, how could any power stop the
granting of them. The constables get
a list of those holding licenses and
trail them, but it is imposibie to absolutely
enforce the law in a seaport
neyi eon Id not go around like Patterson
looking for blind tigers. He could
not force the grand jury in Charleston
any n ore than Patterson when a prohibitionist
could prevent the grand
Jury of Darn well from tlirowin gout
the war. ants which Patterson placed
in tin ii bands.
McSweeney defended his record and <
said the dispensary 1^' had been en- j
forred better than ever before and
without bloodshed.
Col. lioyt said there were admirn- I
ble features iu the dispensary law as j
compared with the barrooms. Hut the

the law do not do it. It is pnforred |
in towns and cities with tlie ail of
municipal authorities, but not in rural j
districts at least not in his part of*,
the State. Dispensaries sell to blind
tigers.
The colonel then paid his respects
;o Mr. (buy. The bill h had referred
to was introduced by Robinson from
Anderson, not Robinson from I'ieb. nb
It was introduced in ivei and Car;,
voted against it. It was prohibition.
The Archer bill was dispensary. Perhaps
Gary ha i changed his mind within
thnt time and thinks that a little
local option would help his candidacy.
Gary, from the crowd, asked if Co}.
Hoyt had not last fall favored coalition.
and if he had not since changed
his mind.
j Col. Hoyt stated that he had taken
that position for a purpose last winter.
and that Jpurgose was to kill the
dispensary first and to enact proliibi- :
tion afterwards.
(!. VVaM said be would divide liis [
speech into three subjects. He would
say something; of himself, then discuss
measures, and thirdly do some skinning.
He would ettle the educational
question two years hence, and the II- i
quor question tins campaign. As be- j
tween prohibition and the dispensary ;
he favored the latter properly enfor- i
ced, 'but license is his latest fad. '
There is not a single prohibition in- j
junction in the Bible, he says, lie
then proceeded to the "skinning." ad- :
dressing himself particularly to Mc- i
Sweeney.

I
rrnor then followed.
Col. illnian opened. He was followed
by Col. Livingston, who made a
clear exposition of his position on the ,
liquor question and said that he was
j on record as to his stand. Col. Wini
kler said that he had never favored
the dispensary to make profits, but to
promote temperance, and he didn't
care if they took away every cent, of
the profits.
Col. Sloan congratulated the far- [
j mors on the rain which the candidates
| had brought. If their talk did no good
i the rain might.
t_"ol. Blease said that the reason lie
that it left the question of dispensary
or no dispensary to the general (
election. The 42.000 negroe voters, the
balance oS power-, would settle the
question for the white people. Does
love Col. Hoyt? No. but he hates the
dispensary. The liquor people want '
to kill the dispensary, make prohihi- '
' tlon obnoxious ami then get high li- j
i cense.

Bellinger said that he had heard of
