Keep the Record Straight. Mr. C. C/Simms, candidate for gov ernor, was charged last week with being a member of the Haskell Convention. This charged Mr. Simms promptly denied and in justice to him we must say that we do not any more'believe that he was a delegate to the conven tion that we believe that Senator Smith was there. Both of these gentlemen have been so accused and both have enterifed emphatic denials. Whatever part any, Mr. Simms had in the move* menthis name does not appear in the list of delegates from Barnwell County as published in The People under date of October 16th, 1890. Tote fair, gentlemen. Let no one of you make charges that you are not prepared to substantiate. Governor Blease has accused Senator Smith of having been a delegate to the Haskell Convention. The Senator emphaticallo denied the charge, stating that he was passing through Columbia the day the convention met, on his wa^ to see the lady who afterwards became his wife. In looking over the old files of The People, we found the following paragraph in the issue of October 16, 1890, which would bear out the Senator’s contention: “The roll (meaning the roll of dele gates ) seems to have been arbitrarily made up and the names of all visitors to Columbia placed upon it. Several have repudiated any sympathy with the movement, among them Messrs. R. C. Moody and W. L. McFail credited to this county.’’ Senator Smith's word is as good as the governor’s. The former has denied Candidate Cards First Friniarv Election Tues day, August 25.1914-. Treasurer. Barnwell, 9. C., June 30, 1914.

Armstrong. the charge and the latter has failed to prove it. ■I When the question, “are you a sup porter of Governor Blease?” was asked candidates for office in Orangeburg County, nearly all of them declared their opposition to the Chief Executive, three or four “straddled” and none de^ dared their friendship. ‘‘Straws show which way the wind is blowing. In his speech at Newberry last week, Governor Biftase said that he is the only chief executive ever furnished by- Newberry County. Well, if he is a • \ sample of the political timber in that county we are not surprised. The searclufOr news this week was made more arduous by the hot, enervat ing weather. If th biell of fare is not to your liking, blame it on the weather man......... Strange that the nrnnd should be singled out to hundreds of “furriners” ton. > ‘Gonzales” offset the Chades- m Calhoun & Co. The governor attacks Senator Smith because the latter has not attempted to override the constitution of tne United States in the matter of negro civil service appointees, mail carriers, etc., but why, as The State asks, does the governor retain the services of a negro to carry notes to and from his friends, instead of giving the job to one of his supporters, and why, may we ask, does he retain the services of a negro chauf feur to drive his automobile when there are plenty of white drivers? Truly, “consistency, thou art a jewel.” Aha! And so it appears that in addi tion to appointing as a member of his staff a man whose name appeared on a Republican election ticket in 1880 along with several negroes, Governor Blease VOTED AGAINST WADE HAMPTON FOR THE jSENATE. This, we beimve. was a strong argument used against Judge Jones in 1912, many voters declaring that they would not vote for a man who bad turned down Hjguppton. There is an old say that "cfiickonS come home to roost.'I Voters, of Earnwell County, do you prefer a form of government under which npne need expect favors except “my friends,” or a government “of the the people, for the people and by the people?” Are we living in a republic or in the “independent monarchy of South Carolina, Coley the First, King?” Life, Accident, CYCLONE LIGHTNING' AND- Live Stock — INSURANCE, * —At Lowest Rates In— Strongest Companies —OFFICES AT— THE BASK OF BARNWELL sXWSA.XJX^ftx.; A-.lKSXSX4X»«Xi*£ *.*>« r i I Qprofmtonaf Carte.

He remov ed as much of the sock as he could, put on Allen’s UlceEirie Salve, and kept right on with i his worje. The salve drew out parts of the all other poisons and in a foot was healed up. This salve is one of the oldest rem edies in America and since 1869 it sock and week his has been known as the only salve powerful enough to cure chronic ulcers and old sores of long standing. Allen’s Ulcerine Salve acts by draw ing out the poisons and healing the sore from the bottom up. It is so powerful that it heals new cuts and sores in one-third the time- that com mon salves and liniments take. And it heals scalds and burns without a scar,—Sold'by C. N.
