adopted a resolution which shows that

tlu* Democratic state ticket. They took
1 ? ? I to attempt t ho rehabilitation of
the minority fjlrt loll by till* appoint*
nient of a ti'iiihtl committee to call an
other con vvnt ion. The caucus was held
in t lie court house, the Blease partisans
cheering tlielr leader continuously.
The following resolution. Introduced
by iloiin a. Hlehards, was iiiiaiiliudusl.v
adopted :
?'Resolved, hy the Reformed I >emo
erats of South Carolina, in convention
assembled, that we do hereby lecithin
our allegiance to the Democratic party,
and to the Democratic principles, state
and national."
In the course of a loan resolution,
which recited the- grievances of the so
called "reformed faction," Introduced
hy C. C. Sims, hi this connection. "Still
we would 1m> the last to encourage any
division of the white voters of this
State which might tend to lead to an
appeal to an alien race."
This resolution was unanimously
adopted.
Tlu? minority faction adopted a reso
lution introduced hy \V. A. Stuckey,
providing for a central Committee of
one from each Congressional district
and two from the State at large to
organise and attempt to rehabilitate
the Please faction. The resolution,
unanimously adopted, read:
"Resolved, That the chairman of this
meeting he. and Is hereby directed,
to iipi>oiut a committee to la> com
posed of two members from the State
at large, and one from <H*ch Oon
greslonal district, to he known as |
the central committee of the Reform
faction of tlie Democratic party of
South Carolina, which committee Is
hereby enii severed to call a conven
tion to meet at such time ami place
as they may deem best, ami to tlx
tho representation by counties for
said convention."
Upon the adoption of the resolution
a prepared list was read out by the
chairman as follows:
State at large, \V. A. James, of I>ee:
O. L. Johnson, of Spartanburg. By
districts; Hirst, John 1*. Grace, of
Charleston ; Second. 10. U. I tuck Ingham,
of Aiken ; Third, James N. Pearmau,
of Anderson ; Fourth. Hi ley J. Row
ley, of Greenville; Fifth, 1. J. Camp
bell. of York; Sixth, Thomas 1?. Brown,
of Florence; Seventh, J. B. Addy, of
Lexington.
The platform adopted was merely a
reiteration of Blouse's campaign
speeches, the platform having been
Introduced by Thomas F, Brantley, of
Orangehu rg.
Heaftirtning their allegiance to the
Democratic party, State and national,
boldly and hotly asserting that their
primary election was nominated, but
that this nomination was "stolen" by
fraudulent methods, and listening to
two ?i>eechos by Cole L. Blease and
one from John P. (.race, of Charleston,
the so-called Reform Democratic Con
vention tonight formally attempted to
rehabilitate their faction with the
avowed purpose to wrest, the reins of
the State government from the bands
of the faction that Is now in jiower.
"I an not bound, unless I see tit so
to be. nor is any other man hound, to
support the nominee of the Democratic
party as declared by the State Demo
cratic executive committee in.ihe prt^
mary held on September 11!. 11)10. be
cause he Is not the nominee, but his
nomination was obtained by the theft
of votes, by the purchase of votes
with Whiskey and money, by intimida
tion and coercion, fraud, theft and j>or
jury," said Cole L. Blease in declaring
that the primary oath to supi>ort the
non)inee of the Democratic party i*
no more binding on any elector to sup
|M>rt Richard I. Manning for the Gov
ernorship, that It was certain other
men in South Carolina that voted
for Judge Haskell instead of the nom
inee. B. R. .Tillman, in the early
However, Cole L. Blease, later in Ids
speech asserted that he "did not cx
jKH't to be a candidate for any otllce
In the general election." and would
lfot be. He further stated that lie
was not "now running for any otllec
in the near or distant future." H is
speech was so qualified that he can an
nounce for office at any time in the
future without nullifying his position,
as a strict Interpretation of the ad
verb "now" will show,
John P. Grqce, of Charleston, in his
speech said that his faction accepted
defeat, which would ? be uncontested,
because they had no desire to spilt the
white vote of the State, not because
tlK?y do not believe Cole L. Blease Un
rightful nominee for the Governorship.
Asserting that the newspaper rejKirt
of a certain s|>eech made by Cole 1..
Blease before the student body of Al
len University several weeks ago was
a 'false ami pernicious report," a reso
lution introduced calling oil Blease Lo
"give a resume of his. utterances on
that occasion." In answer to the reso
lution, .Jdttej* statement
jtfjtat ? sik5Cch was garbled
and maue a sharp attack on the re
porter who wrote It.
He also paid his compliments to
other newsi>ai>er men and various
newspapers.
The convention was called to order
by W. A. James, of BIshopvIIle, the
author of the call for the gathering,
who stated the object of the gathering
following an invocation hy Rev. J. E.
Oliver, of Georgetown.
W; J. Talbert, of Parksvllle, who to
day announced for the United States
Henate unconditionally. was then
elected permanent chairman of the
convention, and John K, Aull, of Co
lumbia, former private secretary to
Blease, when he was Governor, and
later to State Warehouse Commissioner
John Tj. McDaurln, was named as per
manent secretary. *
Chairman Talbert then made his
speech which dealt extensively with
the history of the so-called reform
movement in South Carolina. ? W. F.
