Smith who riesir- to I reward him for long service to South Carolina, her ideals, her institutions and Her people by glvmg him the greatest majority of I his political career.) I South "Sold Down" By Democratic Party Awuy back lu Augu?t, 1U30, I pointout that the south had boon sold down the river at the Democratic purty convention In Philadelphia when the party repealed the two-third# rule for notnlnallnK candidate* and made a single-vote majority all that was necessary for nonilnatlon. 1 said then that the Mouth had lout control of the Democratic party. Today, though Southern DemocralM hold many of the key chairmanships In the United State* annate amj house, j control of the party rests with a few dominant northern and euatorn states, mainly New York, Pennsylvania. 1111 nola and Ohio, whose balance of voting power la composed of union labor-1 ltes and negroes. In effect, the so-. called Democratic party leaders of these states and not our Southern; Democrats control the congress. I did not dream In 11)36 that the congress would uanH a lucilojctal w.igei and hour law and deprive the south j of certain natural advantages which | offset certain railroad freight ad vant-j ages enjoyed by manufacturers and1 shippers In the northern and eastern I I states. But I can see now that seizure by the Yankees of the machinery | of the Democratic party was but a I prelude and forerunner to the passage of a national uniform wage and hour) law having for its main purpose pro-j venting tho migration of northern and ' eastern factories or their workers in j to tbo Lb-mist cwt ?rr<x more ftv a ore southland. The Yankees are now ready to clamp down on the south again. They hdvu secured (with considerable helpj from certain southern new deal politicians who would foul their own nest If it paid them) a form of legislation which can be made severe enough In Its administration not only to stop other factory owners from seeking to lo-1 cate their plants in the south hut. perhaps, make some of those who have moved south sorry that they did so. I do not know that they will do) so, but 1 do think they can do it if ; they so choose. For the Southern [Democrats have lost their legislative vote power, especially since a percent'age of our representatives have sold [ out for new deal favors. 1 do not blame the manufacturers, land the workers of the north and east 'it is a sad thing for a community to 'lose its factories. Imagine the condition of a city like Macon, Georgia, or !a town like Gadsden, Alabama, if its [factories are moved away or dismantled and liquidated. That happened In !Johnstown, N. Y., when its furniture, 'factories moved to Virginia and North' -GareHttttr- Migration of hosiery arrrF other textile mills destroyed millions In Philadelphia property value and threw thousands out of work. Many communities In New England became bankrupt or nearly so, from the loss of industry that sorght lower cost aroaa and a more reasonable type of worker from the kind of workers that have come to a point where they control the amount of wages they shall receive, whether or not the business can afford it. But the south is due no criticism for what has occurred in Its fuYor.

"What that group proposes to do is to put the negro In our mills, churches and schools and 1 presume he Is in favor of this aa ho has not repudiated f h PI r ? ?** 1." At Pickens, the trio had an audience of 2,000 but the loudspeaker broke down in the midst of the first speech and after that the candidates returned to the old fashioned way of addressin political gathering. They walked back and forth across the platform and they leaned far over the side of the stand.# Brown knocked the dipper out of the water bucket and Johnston knocked over a glass of water that poured onto the bald head of a farmer who wag sitting at his feet. In his speech Smith said: "1 voted for 80 per cent oT the New Deal measures and that can- be found in the record After thirty years of faithful service to the people of my i state, I defy any man to name an act of mine that was not in line with So?+h?Carrdhm democracy. "They've got no more chance of beating Kd Smith than they have of sticking to the truth." Smith defended his record in the. senate on the grounds of states' rights.' He said he had been sent as an am-( bassador from South Carolina to the [federal capital and that the state ex-, listed before the union and that, please God. he intended to go on representing a sovereign state that was free to j manage its own affairs. "We're free in a free country and no man is going to put a bridle on me," he said and added: "Now, I mustn't get mad. God knows I've lost my temper enough, over this distortion of truth. Herd Almighty, a man who will distort truth for political purposes ain't fit . to be a citizen, much less to seek a high office." Smith said he had been obligated.^ time and again, during the campaign, to "come to the rescue of FDR against, these coat-tail swingers of his. I be-, lieve he is a bigger man than some ot j those who drag him into the mire to make him make the statement he did."

What I have said with respect to my record is fully substantiated by the reports of the Grand Juries every year since I have been in office.^ I quote from four of these reports, including report of the Grand Jury at the 1938 Summer Term, as follows: "FALL TERM >935 We wish to commend ShefTff McLeod and his As sistants for the splendid work' they are doing in enforcing the law.?S. L. Crolley, Foreman. SUMMER TERM 1936 We commend the Sheriff and his forces for their work in the enforcement of the laws of this County.? N. P. Gettys, Foreman SUMMER TERM 1937 We wish to express our deep appreciation for the spledid work of the Sheriff, his Deputy, and his force of Rural Policemen done throughout the County and particularly for the amount of delinquent taxes that has been collected.?X. P. Gettys, Foreman. SUMMER TERM 1938 We note with much satisfaction the great reduction of crime in this County. We feel that in a large measure the credit for this improvement should go to Sheriff McLeod and his Rural Police force. For instance, there has been no intentional homicide in Kershaw County since October, 1936, and other crimes all down the line have been correspondingly reduced. We feel that Sheriff McLeod should also be commended for his zeal in behalf of the County in persuading guilty persons in offering pleas instead of putting the county u> the expense of trial."

All auditors' reports have commended me for the - -r manner in which i have handled and turned over funds belonging to the County. 1 have conducted the , office of Sheriff in such manner as to reduce the ex- h pense of Court procedure to' a minimum. I have handled the tax executions placed in my hands, I believe, efficiently, and at the same time in such way as not to work a hardship upon those umable to f>ayAt all times i have done my best to conduct the office of Sheriff of Kershaw County for the benefit of, and in the interest of, all of the law-abiding citizens of the 11 County. To a continuance of these methods, 1 pledge myself ior the next tour years if I am re-elected. " 1 have tried to be the sort of Sheriff the good peo- | j pic of Kor&li.iv/ Cour.iy want.
