BIEASE’S OPENING SPEECH Provide tor Use of Gars oa Country Roads.—Speed limit. Magistrate B. P. Wilson, of An derson, said the otbex day that there were many people who owned automobiles and who did not know the state laws regulating them while on the country roads. It seems to be the Impression of most people that they can operate their cars as fast as they want to once out of the city limits, but this is a mistake. Fol lowing are a few interesting bits of law from the acts of the general as sembly. v "No person shall operate a motor vehicle on a public highway at a rate of speed greater than is reason able and proper at the time and place, having due regard to the traf fic jand use of the highways as to the condition or so as to endanger t^ie life, limb or property, of any person or In any event at a rat* greater than flften miles an hour,” Upon approaching a crossing, bridge, step descent, or a curve a person shall have their machine un der control and operate it at a rate of speed not greater than six miles an hour, and in no greater than Is reasonable and proper, having due regard to conditions. "The driver of a motor vehicle shall give notice by blowing a horn, bell or othrwlse so as not to fright en the animals and to use precau tions to insure the safety of persons and property. It Is also necessary to bring the car to a stop If It la seen that the horses are frightened. "U Is necessary to stop the car at a signal from one who Is in the high way and who Is driving a wild ani mal. The raising of a hand may be considered a signal to stop. It is al so necessary to remain stationary until such an animal could be re moved. It is necessary for an au- tomobilist to give the right of way to the driver of a horse or a mule and he shall go to the right of he road. "Violators of these acts shall be fined from ten to one hundred dolars or imprisoned not more than thirty days." Before operating a car in any county it Is necesary to secure from the clerk of court a certificate saying which is numbered and this number must be placed on the back of the car. The owner's address and a brief description of the car must be given. The registration fee Is $1. Ten days are allowed an owner In which to register his car. DELIVERED AT OPENING STATE < .

Race Keeling is Quieting but Lynch ing Is Likely. Advices received from Simpson County, Miss., the scene of a threat ened racial conflict Tuesday, follow ing the killing of Luther Buckley, a white farmer, by a trio of negro fugitives, and later the shooting to deafh of one of the negroes by a posse,, state that normal condition# are fast being restored and further bloodshed is not anticipated. Ac cording to the most authentic re ports from the remote section where the killing occurred, Buckley was one of a posse aearching for Harris on and Robin Jones, brothers and Jim Brady, all negroes, wanted in conAigction with an attack of a white farmer Saturday night, when he was fired on from ambush and killed. The posse later killed Harrison Jones hut the others are still at large. Posses, however, are 1 still searching ttMTItOOda and should they be appre hended 0iey will probably be lynch ed by the mob. Death from. Lock jaw. The little 8-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lanyford died at ths home of her parents In the mill tillage at Lexington Sunday svenlng from lockjaw.

It is on the ninetieth meridian, and he railroads 1 Oeorgla use Central time, while the Carolina roada en- merldtan or Eaatern time To try to avoid confusion the city has a lo cal time of its own. which is half way between the two. But what really adds to the complicated sltu- tlon la the fact that farmers In the surrounding country nearby all use "sun" time, which is different from all the others. This last named time is controled by the almanac that Is in every Southern farmer's home, especially that of the colored far mer. A stranger has some difficult and amusing experiences if he stops the average Augusta person on streets and aaks the hour. He is probably told, "It's ten o'clock by Georgia railroad time, 30 minutes to ten city time and nine o'clock if you are going out into Carolina.'* If the person asked is a farmer the stranger if he will wait until the calculations and an astronomical observation are made, probably will] be furnished with an answer of. "Well, I reckon stranger, it's about nigh on to half- past nine o'clock. AUTO KILLH TWO. Machine Collides With Freight With Fatal Result. Mrs. A. C. Freeman and son, aged 7, of Arcadia, Fla., are dead; Dr. Robie, of Monticello, is injured to such an extent that his recoveyy is doubtful; L. L. Camp, negro chauf feur, will die, and the other occu pant of the car, A. C. Freeman, hus band of the dead woman, is seriously hurt, as the result of an automobile collision with a Central of Georgia freight train, near Monticello, Ga. at seven o’clock Monday afternoon The train was en route to Athens, and It waa thought that the party, on its way to Macon in a big touring car, after picking up Dr. Robie. at Monticello, did not notice the train or else tried to beat it across the crossing, with fatal results.

Cole L. Rlease Clearly and Suc cinctly States His Position on the issue*. Mr. Chairman, Ladles and Gen tlemen. South Carolinians: Two years ago, when 1 appeared before you as a candidate for the of fice of governor, I waa Introduced to you as Senator Blease. This morn ing your chairman introduced me as Mayor Blease, of Newberry. Two years ago I represented Newberry county in the State senate. At the close of that year I voluntarily re tired from that position and last December t was jlected mayor of the city of Newberry, where I was born and where I have lived all my life. So It is with pleasure that I can to day repeat the boast which I made In the last campaign, vis., that the people of my home town and coun ty have never refused to elect me to any office that I have asked them for. I have been town attorney arid am now mayor, and have represented the county In the house of repre sentatives and in the State Senate. I have been elected to nearly every Staite convention since 1890, when I began my service In the house of representatives, and am now serving my fourteenth year on the State Democratic executive committee. In the race for governor two years ago I received a majority of the votes tn the town of Newl>erry and in the county of Newberry, and In the sur rounding counties of Laurens, Salu da and Union, and In that section of Ivexlngton adjacent to my home coun ty. Where the people know me J>e»t I received my largest vote, and of that I am proud. As to my success in my profession, the records in the office of the clerk of the court at Newberry will show that my name appears as attorney In nearly all of the Important criminal and civil cases of the county. I have served the State as speaker pro tern, of the house, and as president pro -tern, of the senate as presidential elector twice, and as a member of the State hoard of canvassers for four years, and I beg to refer you to those with whom I have served and those whom I have served as to the manner in which I filled these positions and discharged the duties thereof. We are told today that conditions in South Carolina demand a sound and economical, but not penurious, business administration, and K is true. The financial question is the greatest issue which confronts our people. And who waa it that first called attention to our financial con dition? Blease did it on the floor of the senate, and worked for a more economical government, and begged the senators to reduce appropria tions, not to Create useless offices and to stop burdening the people with taxation. Ip 1906 and 1908 I went on the stump all over this State and lagged <he people to pay more at tention to their financial affairs, and did all in my power to make the financial condition of our State the principal Issue in both those carfi- palgns But the politicians and eer tain newspapers wanted to keep con cealed the true conditions, so they hoHered "liquor, liquor,” and hid the facts, as far as possible, from the voters. Now. since they can not keep these conditions hid any longer some of them are yelling. li quor alone, and let's have a business campaign." AH right, that 1* what I have been begging for, for year and I am glad to see that the peo- people have at laat waked up to find that I was right, and that they are now demanding what I have been trying to get for years—a more econ omieal form of government. Two years ago I exposed the im migration law so completely that the legislature was forced to repeal the act and aboliah the Immigration n-i- reau. Had it not been for my figh. that abomination would still be will 1,8. I fought for the inspection cl our mills as to health and as to wording children under the prohtbitel age and not within the legal hours uni the legislature has made provision for this. I fought for night scJiool for chi. dren who could not attend day schools, and succeeded in getting a law passed upon teat subject. I fought the effort wbicn war made to beep thousands of our whit* people from voting In the p-.i.nry and In the State convention I gi.c reeded in getting the committee to report unfavorably upon the resolu tion. and on the floor of the conven tion I again fought it, and the con vention refused to pass the resolu tion, and all white men In Soutn Carolina are yet free. My platform today is as follows: 1. An honest administration of all laws, fairly and Impartially, to ail citizens alike. 2. Enforcing all laws upon all subjects, and obedience to the consti tution of the United States and of South Carolina. 3. Trial by Jury for all persons accused of crime and enforcing the judgments of courts founded upon the verdicts of the Juries. 4. Keeping forever seperate the legislative, judicial and executive departments of the government, each however, doing Ra duty and endeav oring to uphold and support the oth er. Upon tills I respectfully present the following issues for the consid eration of my fellow-Democrats to whom I address myself: (a) 1 am in favor of biennial ses sions of the general assembly. (b) I am in favor of liberal ap propriations for our Confederate vet erans. (c) I am in favor of liberal, hut n*pt extravagant appropriation for our State institutions of learning, so that all of them may be kept upon a high standard. (d) I am In favor of building up the free-school system so that every white child In South Carolina may he given a good, common school ed ucation In comfortable and conven ient school houses, and in paying teachers sufficient salaries to secure the beet. I am absolutely opposed to compulsory education's my re cord in both ths house and the senate in the past will show. In my opinion, compulsory educa tion at the hand^ of the State means disrupting the home: for it dethrones the authority of the parents and placet the paid agents of the State in control of Hie oklidren, and de stroys family government, ifeata stand between the parent. They represent the State. They are net responsible to the par- Tbey impress upon the minds of the children the views of the Bute and virtually eay, ."We have Uken you out of bondage and made you free, we are giving you what your unnatural parents would not give you—and no child on earth can be subject to such Influence# and teach ing and escape imbibing the Spirit of rebellion against parental author ity, and consequent disrespect and ingratitude. Children are too eas ily Infected with the Idea that their parent# owe them everything, while they owe them nothing In return, and with the design and law of God set gt defiance, who can compass, by the widest stretches of the most gi gantic mind, the condition that will follow? We desire to see the stan dard of education raised in South Carolina; we want every boy and girl In the State to have every possible opportunity to gain for themselves the very best and highest degree of equipment for life, but we do not want It at the cost of parental au thority, and the peace of the home. Family government and parental re sponsibility antedate all others, and It is possible for wild, extravagant and madly enthusiastic men. who see theory and theory only to destroy family government, alienate children from their parents and force the home into & scene of strife, rebellion and wrechedness.” The Bible says a great deal about obedience to parents and reverence for parents, and. be lieving In that Book and its teach ings as strongly as I do, I say to the parents, for the sake of their chil dren, our country and for the future, keep within your own control the rearing and education of your own children, and strike down by your ballot every effort to deprive you of the same. Our people fight force bills In congress and they had better fight this one at home. (e) I am opposed to the higher education of the negro race, and in favor of the taxes paid by white peo ple going to, atad being used only for, the education of white children '(f) I am in favor of a strict en forcement of the vagrancy laws. (K) 1 am in favor of a law re quiring either a marriage certificate or the registration of all marriages in the office of the clerk of the court of the county In which the marriage takes place. (h) I am In favor of a flat rate ol 2 1-2 cents per mile on railroads in this State, but am opposed to the rules now in force on the railroads as to mileage books and charging 16 cents excess. (i) I am in favor of good roads, good morals and honest government. (j) As to the whiskey question. I am satisfied that the people of the State are tired of the agitation along this line. I favor local option, and, in order to be strictly Democratic and allow self-government and home- rule. I favor extending the present law so as to allow a county to have license, if the majority of her white citizens wish it, as other counties have dispensary or prohibition. How ever, If license is voted, [ favor the most rigorous enforcement of the laws for the sale In this manner, prohibiting under any circumstances any whiskey being sold In less quan tities than one-half pint, or between sunset and sunup, and prohibit it from being drunk on the premises, or being sold, under any circum stances, to minors or Inebriates, or behind oloeed doors or screens, pro hibiting any obscene pictures on the promises, or any billiard or pool rooms connected therewith, and pro viding that any person holding a li cense who shall violate any provis ion of the law shall immediately uo on conviction, forfeit his license and be forever thereafter barred from be ing licensed, aud in addition be tro prisoned at hard labor in the State penitentiary without the aiie. unlive of a fine. , I am absolutely opp >s d to the did bar-room- system, and would under no circumstances »lgu a bill to reinstate that system. <k) I am opposed to any law re striding the rights of Democrats to vote In the primary elections, other than Is prodded for in the rules adopted by the State convention which provides as follow: That no white man shall be excluded from 1 urticlpstion In the Democrai.c pit inary who shall take rhe pledge re 'lulred by the ruies cf the Democrat ic party, and whose name has .teen enrolled on the Democratic clnit lin five days before the primary eleci n, and who is otherwise qualified under the constitution and rules Of the Democratic party to vote in the prim ary election." The oath referred to is as follows: “I do solemnly swear that I am duly qualified to vote at this election, according to the rules of the Democratic party, and that I have not voted before at this elec tion, and pledge myself to support the nominees of this primary," Rule 2 provides that no person shall be permitted to vote unless he has been enrolled on a club list at least five days before the primary election, and unless he has been a resident of the State one year, and of the coun ty in which he seeks enrollment 60 days preceeding the next general election. It is, therefore, seen that the claptrap, so-called argument that people are allowed to vote In the primary elections who have only been in the county for a few days or in the State for a short time is abso lutely unfounded and unwarranted, because these provisions which 1 have cited make it absolutely imper ative that in order to vote in the primary one shall have been In the State one year and In the county 60 dags preceeding. the genera] election, sod this absolutely prevents any man from voting in the primary election who is what is commonly called a floater. In my opinion, this is amply strong, and any law passed by the legislature further abridging the right of suffrage in the primary would be vetoed by me immediately if I were governor. (1)1 am in favor of running the government on a liberal, but not ex travagant basis, (as is now being done) and in making our tax levy, both county and State, as low as pos sible for a safe and econmical man agement of our financial affairs; and of reducing .expenses uselessm tco- of reducing expenses, abolishing use- the people, or make a poor people, you reverse Democracy and create dissatisfaction and dlecontent among the people, who are' the masters and not the servants, as some would have ns think. For me, give me a poor government and a rich people, ip place of a rich government and s poor people for the more money that you give year legislature the con trol of, the more extravagant will be their appropriations and expenditur- ea. Under our present management the idea seems to be to raise the tax levy higher, make assessments high er, make more extravagant appropri ations, and spend the people’s money uselessly, making both the people and the government poor, for the benefit of a few who hold political positions and draw large salaries, and who are trying to create oaaris tocracy, not of .blood, not of brdias, but of money. H m) I am in favor of the conati- tntlonai amendment to be voted upon in the general election providing for a fifth justice of the supreme court, and in-favor of making, the decision of the supreme court in any case the final disposition of that particular case, in so far as the State courts are concerned, unless that court Itself shall for good and sufficient legal reasons Afterwards brought to its at tention change its decision. Triffling with the courts as is now being done, should l)e stopped. And In order to bring this about I am In favor of such laws that will protect capital In all Its lawful investments, and the good old Democratic doctrine, "Eq ual rights to all and special privileges to none” in each branch of the gov ernment and particularly in the en forcement of all laws. I have heen advocating these prin ciples for years In the house, In the senate and on the stump In my home county and throughput the State, and have stood squarely on them out in the open and never waited to see which would be the popular side be fore taking a stand. Even when some of them were very unpopular and It seemed that any man who dar ed advocate them was doomed to po litical obltvidh 1 stood by them and made the fight to keep them up and begged the people not to be deceived, but to hear me for my cause, and now we see some who did not stand for them, or who, if they did, were afraid to acknowledge it, endeavoring to push me off my platform and yell ing to the people that they and Betsy kilted the bear and that they are the logical candidate. If therebe a log ical candidate upon these principies or upon a financial platform for a more economical form of government and for reduction In appropriation and a business man’s administration I submit to you, the people, that I am the man, sUnding upon my past record as candidate, legislator and citizen. I beg to call your attention to the fact that two years ago I re ceived forty two thousand and one hundred votes for this position. ’ From the information that 1 have received I am satisfied that I will be elected and if so I promise you a fair and impartial administration of all the duties of the office and in so far as my power lies a reduction in expenses and an honest enforcement of whatever laws may now he upon your statute books, or may be placet there by the properly constituted au thoritles.—Adv. FREDERICK H.

When you make a rich and Senator Daniel, of Virginia, Passes Away at Lynchburg. John W. Daniel, senior Senator from Virginia, and for more than thirty years Virginia's ' favorite eon,’ died at the Lynchburg Sanitarium at 10.35 o'clock Wednesday night, his death being due to a recurrence of paralysis. The immediate cause of his death was a cerebral hemor rhage, sustained at noon, in the right portion of Jits brain, involving the right side. This was In addition to the Paralysis of the left side, which was sustained last winter, while Id Florida for his health. The statesman's Illness began with a slight attack of apoplexy, in Phila delphia, last October, which kept him from being in his seat at the opening of Congress last December Only once since that had he appear ed before an audience, and that was for an informal talk in January. The end came almost without struggle. Indeed, the family present could not notice the slight struggle which was noted by Dr. Waugh. HAMILTON IS ELECTROCUTED. He Killed an Affinity Who Tried to Shake Him Off. Angelo Hamilton, who was con victed of murdering Mrs. Sallie B. Hix, at Lynchburg, Va., June 13, 1 909, was put to death In the lec trie chair in the Virginia state peni tentiary at Richmond early Friday. Mrs. Hamilton came to Richmond with her children to intercede with the governor for the commutation of Hamilton's sentence. The crime for which Hamilton was electrocuted was committed in Lyn chburg, Va., June 13. 1909. Hamil ton had been infatuated with the woman and she had sought to free herself iram him. On that night Mrs. Hix went to a dance. Hamil ton followed her to the hall. On the way home Hamilton shot her several timeq. He waa 26 year of age. Found Baby in Basket. Like Moses of old, a young baby was found near MoreauvlUe, La., Sunday night floating In a protected Willow basket among the rushes along the banks of a bayou. In the place of a ruler's daughter, a mer chant of Moreauvjlle.overhauled the unusual craft and unsentimentally summoned the aherlff to make an in vestigation in search of the mis creant parents. In addition to the child the basket contained a bot tle of milk, a one dolar bill and a flask of whiskey. Military Prisoner's Fate. Lieut. A<fo>f Hofrichter. of the Austrian army, haa been sentenced to be publicly cashiered and to serve 20 years in prison for sending poison capsules to oAeen*4n the General Army staff. Capt Mader died ,fioiu the effects of tbs potion. * * * ,'/ i hi Mr. Frederick H. Hyatt is one of the candidates for Governor subject to the reeult of the Democratic prim aries and Inasmuch as this is his first entry into politics, a sketch concerning his public life wll] be of interest. , Hla early Ufe was passed upon the plantatfotf where he was born. At the close of the civil war, his father's fortune having disappeared in. the smoke of the conflict, Mr. Hyatt, a lad of sixteen went to work on his own account. By his own ef forts he received an education in the schools and colleges of his na tive State. In 1884 he began his career In the insurance world, filling various positions with distinction and in 1892 he was appointed manager for South Carolina for The Mutual Life, which position he now holds. Mr. Hyatt has lived in Columbia for more than 20 years and is recogniz ed as one of the business leader In addition to-his Insurance work, ho has made a success in handling real estate and other interests. During :he administration of *l.e late Governor Ellerbe, a vacancy arose on the Richland County board of commissioners. Mr. Hyatt waa named to fNi out the unexplred term :i»ia as chair .Jim ivus member cf the board of equalization. He did not offer for election. It was during ,h!s term as commissioner that the rrst steps were taken to lmpr)V3 the county highways, which are now pointed to with pride throughout the cor. r try. Mr. Hyatt has received various ap pointments of former Governors, be ing one of the State delegates accom panying the governatorial part es to the Dewey celebration, the Nationr Good Roads congress at St. ^.oils and various other conventions. He has always taken a high stai d for the moral uplift of his commun ity. The erection of Columbia's Y. M. C. A. building was due to Mr. Hyatt's energy while serving as its president. When it was found nec essary to enlarge Columbia College, Mr. Hyatt gave the necessary lands for the erection of new buildings and gave considerable financial aid. He is a Methodist, serving bis church in various capacities, however when it was found that the Lutheran Theo logical Seminary, with proper finan cial aid, would be moved to Colum bia, Mr. Hyatt was among the first to respond with such assistance. Upon the organization of the Sou thern Cotton Association he was qlected State Treasurer and was sub sequently named treasurer for the entire South. This association hav ing fulfilled its mission to the farm ers of the South, it was merged into the Farmer's Union. Mr. Haytt first conceived the idea of a good roads association for South Carolina, its membership consisting of supervisors, county officials and others Interested in highway im provements. He has been the presi dent of the aasocUtion since Its or ganization. Conventions ere annual ly hold tor tho exchange of Ideas and discussions by men conversant with the needs of the State. Mr. Hyatt has visited every county and most towns of the State, on rarkms missions and his knowledge of tho flnandial, geograhptcal and educa tional conditions make him peculiar ity fitted for the position to which he aspires.—Adv.
