PEOPLE (%• Candidate for Governor Worked - Bit Way to the Top, and Has Serv- Ipvi «d the State in Poaltlonn of Honor kL; and Trnat With Fidelity and AbU- X ' : It ll right that the people or south f Carolina should know the fact about the candidates In the race for Gov ernor before the 27th of August be cauao no one can vote properly un lets he votes Intelligently and to B- * Vote Intelligently one must know the , record of the candidates. This arti cle ll written to let the people know about Judge Jonea. Few people know that Judge Jones it a man of the people. He Is proud Of the fact that In Newberry county, Vrhere he was born, there are still people living who remember thnt his father was a respected carpenter and hie mother assisted her husband in the support of the family by sewing for the neighbors. Almost from childhood Ira H. Jones looked at life seriously. His schoolmates remember that often in the afternoon when they were at play he would go in early to study for his Classes the next day, and they testify to the fact that he gave early promise of becoming an upright man and a useful citizen. Bor careful study and by taking nd vantage of such meager npi>ortuni ties as ware offered, he obtained a fair education Schools were not then what they are now and that is probably the reason whv Judge Jon' s iPnemberlng his own dtfl'culties and wishing to smooth the road Tt oth- •r poor boys declared that as gov- ernor *“nis Improvement and I>e- vslopment of the Common Schools shall have ray keen Interest and hear ty support. It would-fee easy to tell and might be interesting to learn how young Jones having gotten an education moved to Ijincaater county and be gan tbs practice of law How clients onme (lowly at first and bow later having Inspired the conSdence of the Phopblb bis bolbe town he acguFr-d n Urge atrt,paying practice tvmt wn are chiefly Interested In. howexer, Is his politics! career In 1190 Ira TV Jones was e’er'i d to the Legislature fro^^ixiraster Coantg_AtfL It is evIdeaHRTt he wm srd lljjBrhls sbllltv ignlxed. fmr he we* at onceom^Bn~ chairman of \v«v« and Bffonnr Committee of-taerWruae and was latsr elected Its Speak i r Those were stirring times, for the grant reform government h*d Just swept over South Carolina snd par ty spirit ran high Senator Tillman then Governor, was Instituting many reforms and Judg>- Jones »• of the Hosse did offlont Be It said to h!» rr.-d f. 'however, that althoucb the whole State was aroused by pollt. H ant moeltlee.

The same , n. , u«frv and conscientious perfoi mate e ,f d im which waa noticealite in h'ni a« i young man had charai ti rl/ed h'n Work as a Judge He has been Mie recipienf of lion ors from his fellow men nnd the e-if oluments of offlee. but the satisfaction of a hard day's work well done h.is ever been his best reward Among the charges hurled at Judge Jonea by his political opponent that he haa leaned toward corpora tions. Suffice It to say that as attor ney he never represented a corpora tlon and as a Judge he repeatedly up held large verdicts against the cor poratlona. In the case of Rhodes xs. the Granby Cotton Mills of Columbia, be upheld a verdict of 18,000 in fav- .or of Rhodes, on the ground that there was evidence that he had been unjustly discharged ancj blacklisted by the cotton mills. The verdicts which he sustained against the rail roads would run up Into the hun dreds of thousands of dollars, there being one verdict against the South ern Railway Company for $2r>,000 and many others for large amounts. He has never loaned either toward OT against corporations, but his de cisions and rulings have been what those of every Judge should be—Just and fair to all. As Citizen, Lawyer, Legislator. Judge and Chief Justice, Tra R Jones has “made good”. He has lived an x, Upright moral life: is a conscientious » . -member of the Associate Reformed - -f Presbyterian church, is temperate in f bis habits, and has measured up to ■- A .X ’all the requirements of a true and useful man. It should be remeriiber- / , ed that this man who is now before - the people In the face for Governor ~T'-: has never In his life been charged With ahythlng unbecoming the high { eat and best citizen until his oppo f: ent brought charges against hi/R The abaurdlty of these charges jfan hd ehown by the fact that /Cole L. Bleaae himself voted for Judge Jdnea for United States Senator In , 1909 with such, men as Fipnk IV. f, Legrand Walker, J. if. Coker Other high men.

Fingers and Ears of Women Hacked Off ns Quickest Way to Get Their Jewels. A dispatch from Mexico City says thirty-six soldiers and more than txventy passengers were slaughtered by Zapatastns Monday afternoon In a eanyon, one kilometer north of Ticu- man, 110 miles southwest of Mexico City, when a passenger train, south bound from Mexico City, was attack ed from ambush. Meager details, which did not reach the city until Tuesday after noon, Indicate that the savagery dis played was not less, and perhaps greater, than that which character ized the massacre of troops and pas sengers on a train between Cuernav- nta. and Mexico City on July 20. So far as know^n Tuesday night only a part of the train crew escaped. The first story of the assault was sent to Mexico City by Conductor Marin and Collector Dominguez, who although wounded, had managed to make their way to Vautepec, twelve miles axvay. They were forced to steal through the Zapatista lines and did not arrive at the telegraph sta tion until Tuesday afternoon. After the firing ceased the rebels swarnjod down the hHlside and set fne to the three cars composing the train. A few of the wounded had crawled out onto the right-of-way, thus escaping the fate of those un able to leave the cars. They were burned, nceording to reports rcccdv- ed. The leader of the rebels made ab- sidutelx no effort to restrain his men from acts of hrutalitv greater than any that has yet marked the cam paign In the Smith.

McMa han that the chairman of the board, Major Richardson, in allowing him self salary is violating the law. The controversy begun over the publication of a statement coming from an old soldier to the effect that an employee of the Llonie, Kdvxard Jones, a supporter of Judge Ira Ii. Jones, for Governor, had been given a ‘■hint'' by Major H. \V. Richardson, the chairman of the board, that un less tie xtX 'l for Governor Hlease he would tie "fired”.
