The Chester News says: "W. F.
Stevenson, candidate for Congress |
from this district, made an impres- j
sive speech in Hue Court House last
Saturday. Mr. Stevenson is a man '
of unusual ability and has had a i
great deal of legislative experience
and the voters of the fifth district j ,
have the opportunity to elect a man j'
to represent them in Congress wtho
is altogether fearless when it comes '
to doing and working for those things !
that make fortheb eest interests of j
the people generally. He is ronsid-;
ered one of the strongest lawyers in '
the State and his broad legal training
more thoroughly equips him to
confront the great public questions
that come up in the National Congress.

The following signed and witnessed

rote Mr. W. R. Richey at Laurens

and better certificate. I did not]
insider that the certificate he had j
ven was strong enough and for that
ason wanted a better certificate. I (
not at the 'State penitentiary |
hen the certificate was signed by |
r. Mcintosh, nor have I ever seen Dr. j
rlntosh sign any statement, as I do j
i not know the gentleman personally!
1 I know concerning this certificate |
is what I heard in regard to the |
me when I was in the ofTice of Gov. j
case when I was in Columbia and |
e certificate was obtained by W. R. j
chey. I never saw this certificate j
d can not say whether the same j
is written in handwriting or on a

it was obtained about the first week la

Mr. CllnkscaleB, when asked who
called his attention to the statement
issued by. Dr. Mcintosh concerning
e 'the condition of Richey, which, accor,ding
to the statement ha gave out
i
here today was not "strong enough," J

" at the time discussing the matter but ju

- did not hear it read. His impression
