The trip last week of the State campaign part/ completed the circuit of the low country, where it has been for the last seven weeks. From nos on until August 20 the candidates fox state offices will make their pleas fox suffrage in the Piedmont section and because of the much larger number ol voters they must face It Is expected that attacks on the public records ol candidates will play an important role in electioneering. The meetings last week were at St George, Orangeburg and St. Matthew* on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday respectively. At each meeting where statements bearing on the senatorial MM W WO. ?o*w " I-'?' ?. v . ..? %?? ? t* i*a t vi / v* ? iucui than the sentiments of the audience Irene in favor of E. D. Exnith, can didate for re-election ee United Statei eeoator. In striking contrast, how ever, was the political meeting ami picnic at Filbert on Friday, when friends of the governor were far In the majority. The meeting at Filbert ir York county was not a scheduled meeting of the candidates and there were only a few^ present. R. 1. Manning Ejects Blssssism. Richard I. Manning of Sumter, can la didats for governor, furnished the ii.v:.. see eat ion of the week when at the X Orangeburg meeting he injected the L questloa of Bieaselsm into the race I It came unexpectedly as Mr. Manning IS,. ** constantly pleaded that faction Bifa i^em d ^ thl* V0n "Tha "tmVVk. h*>.i*ioua issue before B|'\ dl*e people of South Carolina in this By * campaign," said Mr. Manning in part, B' "is1 the condition of demoralisation W "brought about by Gov. Blease's adr ministration, or whether a man stands L" with these wishing the perpetuation oi V the policies of the present administration with its lawlessness or whether he stands at the head of that other element which thinks the present ad ministration is a disgrace to the state." Mr. Manning went on to say that he was not attacking the personal record of Mr. Blease.

It i la still discussed on every stump anr by nearly all the speakers, with widely variant atltudes. All are In favor of expanding education among the white , people, but the question of the education of the negro, who ere in a maL JorRy in this state of almost a quarter of a million, continues to bob up as > an argument against compulsory edu> cation. [ Clinkscalsa Decries "Nigger Scare." ; John Q. Cllnkscalee, candidate for t governor, is the sole advocate of a ; statemide compulsory school attendance law and continually decries the "nigger scare" ad fenced by some of his opponents as an argument agaln&t , the education of the whites. Robert A. Cooper advocates "provision and , ample school faciltMeq," with espec\ ial care that the children of the country districts be as well prepared to go to fl? fh* oin before the enactment of a law that i would force aid children into school. Ha stated also that a statewide school I attendance law at this time could not L be enforced. , Against Compulsory Education, i As against these positions on comI pulsory education are the statements > of Mendel L. Smith and Richard I. Manning, who advocate local option in the questions of education and liquor. Lowndes J. Browning of Union, can( didate for governor, has not advocated ( any general system or plan of educat tkm, but has stated that a statewide compulsory education law would in" crease the tax levy Ave mills, which ' the people of the state are not prepared to stand. Charles A. Smith has (1 said that he was la favor of any step [ that would advance the sense of edudppoiodi * viCWS"Of the compulsory education issue is that of John G. Rich| ards, who states that he is fundamentally opposed to compelling education on Anglo-Saxon people. Mr. Richards ' argues that It will elevate the negro child at the expense of the white child. Against this argument is the prediction of Mr. Cllnkscales that if the present conditions are allowed to continue for 16 yea^s that there will be more negroes than white people qualified to vote at the expiration of | that time. , .. Advocate Rural Credits. Lowndes J. Browning and W. C. lrby, Jr., are strong advocates of the [ enactment of a rural credits law, which Will enable f*j-m prfl in Atrn | their firms and hemes. Mr. Browning and Mr. Irby would like to sew the i state loan money at a low rate of interest to prospectors white farmers t and to the present farmers, so that they can remain in the country as , producers Instead of going to the cities and becoming consumers. They point , out that the general exodus of families from the country to the city and the large number of tenant white L farmers should be decreased by akl L from the state treasury, as these who I develop the farms of South Carolina . represent the backbone and material CS553 Ave days return to , name on first number on second, and ' s jAUTOE ress on third line, _ tmkv 01 una peat time has put many farmers in Teams, Louisiana, Missis* [ stppl sad Alabama Into bankruptcy. t Mr. Osspsr maintains that South Carolina k wnstkii* mm ?i r state m4 that aid should bo given la [ all way* practicable to holp tho ooodHlons of tbo Connors. . Tho moos for minor offices have > waned la interest so tho campaign draws soar to Ha sad, and so tho t quostloa of (ho selection o( a chief executive on August 25 must bo mads * from eleven aspirants to that position. , The qaavtetto of candidates for llautaaaaf governor, Andrew J. Dsthsa. WHMaat M. Hamer, J. A. Hunt#* and 1 B. Frank KsUey, have confined themselves lately to sea tie prods at the raoofds of each other sad the sallies for the most part have been accepted by the audiences 1 nthe best of humor. Mr. Bethea bases his plea for suffrage on his -work as Gov. Ansel's secretary and his present position as code commissioner; Mr. Hamer, not having been In public life before, holds up his record as a business man in Dillon; Mr. Hunter and Mr. Kelley speak of their wcrk In the legislature, the former bding a representative from1 . rfamberg county and the latter a repi resentatlve and later a state senator < from L.ee county. The candidates for railroad isloner, six in number, vary little in the presentation of their platforms. The candidates are Jamee Cansler, George W. Fairey, C. D. Fortner, Frank W. Shealey, J. H. Wharton and W. I. Witherapoon. Mr. Cansler has not been with the party for many weeks on account of sickness. The race for comptroller general, A. W. Jones, incumbent, and James A. Summersett, opposing him, continues from day to day with the same charges. Thomas H. Peeples, attorney general and candidate for re-election, has been absent from a majority of the meetings in the past few weeks. He is opposed by A. G. Brice, who day by day prefers the charge of "masterly inactivity" against the administration of Mr. Peeples.
