t Because a man can manage a liquor
"business, it does not follow by any manner
of means that he would make a good
congressman.
*
MayfieJd's long experience in the 8tatc
Senate makes him the best equipped man
f- in the race for congress. He wou'd make
4 _ . the best congressman of any of them. In
addition to this, some of the candidates
v c are not to be compared to him in ability,

!*., State loses the services of a man who
would no doubt have done much good foi
^ the State in congress. He was eloquent
p-/ and energetic and was just serving his
ll; . first term. His death, it is said, makes
^ practically certain the election of Mr. L.
SpX J. Williams to succeed him.?Columbia
fpg. Record.
Our contemporary states that "it is
said" the election of Mr. Williams is
fi' "practically certain." Who said so? We
ffife." People down in the second district would
: - like to know who it is that is selecting a
congressman for us without so much as a
gr . "by your leave."
That was a handsome advertisement
||> the Columbia State gave our friend, Mrs.
pf- Virginia D. Young and her paper, the
-v Fairfax Enterprise, in last Sunday's issue,
i ; Mrs. Young deserves all the nice things
said of her. While advocating equal
lights for the women, she has not become
js&fc more of the man, but rather added to her
g||;^qmanliness of character.
MAYEIELD FOR CONGRESS.
|f|fe.V The untimely and lamented death of
{ ; the late George W. Croft, member of congtess,
makes a vacancy from this, the
P^ Veecond congressional district, that will in
ill probability be filled by a special election.
Mr. Croft has not been dead a
a&u week, vet we find the newspapers naming
several positive aspirants for the vacancv.
$ v We have no quarrel against these early
announcements. With due reverence for
the memory of Colonel Croft, we must
. leave memory and its past to care for the
dead, while we look to the living to find
one to take his place, for each Southern
district needs at all times an honest and
capable representative in congress.
SH&/ Without malice toward any candidate,
Iib; and disclaiming partisanship j except that
&C of a most exalted and justifiable nature,
.. we commend the aspirations of Senator
I* B.G. Mayfield, of Bamberg county, and
we hope they will be gratified. Of all the
candidates now spoken of each has had
store or less legislative experience, and
prof conrse has left a legislative record.
Compare them impartially and Mayfiela's
leads all the rest. We cannot here recount
the number and character of good
vjilaws that have run the gauntlet of the
past dozen legislatures, driven by his in?;flnence,but
we do know that almost every
p measure of general effect that has become
pilaw in the past twelve years bears the
& war marks of his influence.
Mayfield entered the Senate twelve
rears ago with all the influence of a legL
lBlator of experience. The influence of
K this strong personality has constantly
grown until it is quite certain that there
: & not now a more sagacious, industrious
or influential legislator in the State. Mr.
^ Mavfield, though he is an accomplished
far ana successful lawyer, gave up his proI?
fcaainn ahnrit nn? vear aco to aevote him
> self to his farm, "so that by voluntary
r choice he is allied in interest and destiny
f-~ v with the masses of his constituents.
Bpr.. Manufacturing constitutes no mean
BP*'proportion of the industry of this
' district. If we examine the record
BEsv-.'-we find that in the legislative disposition
m&fit the recent demands of the operatives
in the cott^-i mills of the State, that
Hjj&v* Terr young children should not be work>
?d in the mills, Senator Mayfield's sympathies
were aroused by the humane
plea, but his sense of justice was not
vovercome by his sympathy. He don't
wt Relieve the grievance of one, however
is properly healed by doing a
wrong to another, however strong. In
the settlement of the question, of child
labor in the cotton mills of the State he
. saw the strength of the strong, the weakaess
of the weak, and by a just compromise
banished the wrong.
Mr. Mayfield, without regard to friend
rep* f or foe, has supported all propositions
HggpXto Investigate well founded rumors of
fraud in his State or county. With equal
seal he has frowned upon that slander
ij?'- which grows out of false alarm.
v His conduct has been such that his
IR* enemies?all really valuable men must
make a few enemies?admit that Mayl&v
field's place cannot be filled from this
M county in future as acceptably as he has
ly^:. filled it in the past. Our theory is that a
S&'' valuable man here will be a valuable man
(v in congress. The book account ot merit
of the several candidates lies open to the
! district, and Mayfield's name stands first
t vrith the largest credit. Let him, or let
* merit, be rewarded.
; BEST REMEDY FOR CONSTIPATION

FOR CONGRESS.
I hereby announce myself as a candi
date for congress from the second districi
of South Carolina, to fill the unexpired
term of the late Geo. W. Croft, subject
of course, to the action of the Democratic
party. J. O. PATTERSON.
Barnwell, S. C., March, 15,1904.
To the Democratic Voters of the Sec
ond Congressional District:
An all-wise Providence has deprivec
von of vour direct representation in thi
> lower house of congress, through thi
i death of Hon. Geo. W. Croft, congress
> man from the second South Carolina
; district. This sad loss of an able public
> servant creates a vacancy in a positioi
for which it has been my announced in
tention to be a candidate in the regula:
, primary this summer, and so makes i
necessary for me to seek your suffrage
. earlier than would otherwise have beei
the case, for the unexpired term. I am i
| candidate for the high honor of repre
, senting the second South Carolina dis
trict in congress, and ask your support
I am a Democrat, and give full alle
giance to Democratic principles. Abovi
all, I am a white supremacy Democrat
1 and believe absolutely in the rule of thii
' country by the white men, a rule sc
1 shaped as to bring the greatest good tc
the greatest number. I go to the verj
fullest length in opposition to anything
that savors of race political or socia.
equality. These are beliefs which I hole
should be advocated at Washington &
well as entertained at home.
I am eternally against trusts and th<
monopolies they build and foster, and
pledge my most earnest efforts, if elected
to work for relief of the people therefrom.
South Carolina is now well represented
in the national bouse of representative!
by professional men. I would not appeal
to class prejudice, but I do ask, ought
"hot the farmers of South Carolina, whe
are a majority of the State's white voters,
to have at least one simon-pure farmei
representative in congress?
I have been honored by the people oi
Edgefield county by election to represenl
them in the in the State legislature, and
by the people of South Carolina, through
their general assembly, to share in the
management of the dispensary, and poinl
? VII. 4 ..
to my record as a puouc servauii as ?u
assurance to the Democrats of the second
district that if thev choose me as theii
congressman, I will serve them faithfully
and to the fall extent of my ability.
I hope to have the opportunity of meet
ing the Democratic voters of oar district
face to face, to fally state from the stumi
my position on all public questions, wh let
cannot be done in the limits of a newspa
per article. L. J. WILLIAMS.
FOR COUNTY SUPERVISOR
I announce mvself a candidate for th<
office of Supervisor of Bamberg county
