Is not the governor, by his inddiary re marks and wholesale pardoning, MOR ALLY responsible for this dastardly at- ~ tempt to asaasinate a man whose chief fault appears to be that he is not a sup porter of the administration^ * The one-time proud old State of South Carolina has been reduced to such a low ebb by the blatant demagogy of the past few years that many follow ers of the governor have been taught to believe that they can commit almost any crime oh the calendar with impun ity, a petitition signed by the proper au thorities being all that is necessary to secure their release. As he was running away from the scene of his crime, Dr. McIntosh’s would be assassin exdaimed: “Now, you won*! bother Coley tomorrow,” or words to that effect, and yet the gover nor pretends that the assailant was not a Bleaseite. Dr. McIntosh was to ap pear on the stage at the Columbia meet ing to face the governor*in regard to the Richey case, mention of which has appeared in this papei*. What earthly reason would an anti-Bleasite have for THURSDAY JULY 30,1914. The political prophets have it “doped out” that a Blease candidate will be elected Governor next month, basing their prediction on the fact that the Blease vote seems to have ce ntered on Richards and Irby, whilei the anti-Ad- ministration vote is to be divided be tween some five or six gentlemen, so splitting the vote that two Bleaseites will be in the second race. To our mind such will very likely be the case unless three or four of the weaker anti- Blease candidates can be induced to withdraw from the race, or, failing in this, to follow the rules of the game, lay aside any personal choice in the matter and center bn the two strongest candi dates. There are six candidates on the anti-Blease ticket, any one of which would make an excellent Governor, but there can be question that two of the six have outdistanced the others in vote-getting. They are Manning and Clinkscales. It seems to be the consensus of opin ion that while Clinkscales may lead on the first ballot that he would be an easy man to beat in the second primary mainly because of his views on the whiskey question and compulsory ed ucation. This statement is made with no intention whatever of reflecting on Mr. Clinkscales’ ability to make a good Chief Executive, but it appears, would be able to pull more vptes at a time when they will count. We have merely suggested these two gentlemen because they nppear to us to be the leading candidates at present. Later developments may prove Mendel Smith or Cooper Or Browning to be equally as strong,but Manning the main idea is to concentrate the anti-Blease strength on two candidates. The above editorial was written Fri day. On the same day a call was issued td the citizens of South Caro lina, by the Aiken county delegates to the Sipte convention, for an Anti- Blease Convention to be held in Colum bia tomorrow, Friday, July 31, for the purpose of concentrating on two candi dates. This is exactly in line with the suggestion jn the above article and we heartily endorse this move on the part of the Aiken delegation. We urge that not only the Anti-Blease delegates attend but that every citizen in the State who has the interests of South Carolina at heart meet iq Columbia tomorrow. The following is the Associated Press dispatch that appeared in Saturday’s papers: Aiken, July 23.—A call was sent out to-night by the Aiken County delegates to the South Carolina State Conven tion for an Anti-Bfease Convention in Columbia Friday, July 31,-to concen trate on two or three Anti-Blease Gu- bemational candidates. The call says appears to be the undivided opinion of those citizens of South Carolina who would redeem their State from Blease ism that the present situation demands the elimination of at least three or more avowedly Anti-Blease candidates in order that the Anti-Blease vote of the State may not be divided. The call declares that Bleaseism “is doing more that anpthmg««aih wishing to prevent ‘We ask to know.” his appearance? is If, as Pollock predicts, Cole Blease buried face downward on the 25th of August “so that if he scratches out it will be in a warmer climate,” he has our sincerest sympathy. Wouldn’t "antidote” be a better name than “anti-Bleasite” for those who are opposed to the present administration? They are sure cures for the poison of Bleaseism. r_> Feigned paralysis seems to be as effective in South Carolina in securing release from prison the “cat and mouse act”, is in England. „ “Progressive paralysis” Is evidently a new malady that the doctors have Jo contend with. This is the kindtbof weather when “cold comfort” would be acceptable. No. 666 This is a prescription prepared especially for MALARIA or CHILLS & FEVER.
