He is a self-made man whose official rec! ord is without blot, whose private life J is above reproach, and who is honored, i trusted, esteemed bv all men?at home and abroad. Mr. Williams has a commanding presence, a striking personality, ' is a forceful speaker, endowed with ' strong and vigorous mind, and, withal, he I is a practical, well rounded man who is ! qualified in every sense to represent his constituency with credit and ability. While he may not succeed in his efforts to stay the hand of corrupt and extravagant Republicanism, he will be found everlastingly at it, and, furthermore, it will be his "constant endeavor to open wide the flood-gates of the national treasury which lead Southward, securing every dollar that can be legitimately had for this section and its people.?Edgefield Advertiser, March 30. Resolutions as to the Congressional Candidacy of L J. Williams. The following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted at a called meeting of the Hibler Democratic club, held on March 28, 1904, and signed by every member of the club: Whereas, we, the members of Hibler Democratic club, the club of which L. J. Williams is a member and the club of the section where he was born and has lived all his life, are in a position, being neighbors, to know him intimately, Resolved, first, That we know L. J. Williams to be a man of ability and energy and possessed of the highest ideas ofhonor and integrity of character. Resolved, second, That as he is in every way fitted to pertorm tne auues 01 the high office to which he aspires, we cannot commend him too highly to the voters of the second congressional district in his race to succeed the late Congressman Croft. The above preamble and resolutions were signed by every member of Hibler Democratic club. B. D. Kitchings, 0. D. WHITE, Secretary. President. Edgefield's Absolute Unanimity for Williams. The lives of some men are remarkable. The life of Leon J. Williams, of Edgefield, who is not yet forty years of age, has already beena remarkable one, signalized by"the unmistakable hand of destiny, and promises to be still more remarkable in the future. To be a man of favoring destiny is not always to be a mere man of luck?or an idle man?for while destinv seems to be distinctly favoring Leon Jr. Williams, she is but recognizing the man of brain, the man of work, and what is far better than either, the man of worth and reliability. Leon J. Williams, fas we have said above, has not yet resettled the age of forty years. He is only j some thirty-seven or eight. His record : is before his people?his home peopleland with a spontaneous and absolute I unanimity they are espousing and endorsing his candidacy. And, mark you, "n this world, when a man's neighbors bve him and speak well of him, he is emphatically the right sort of man. And whsi we say "his home people," we induce the good citizens, men and women, of Saluda. For God ward off the day whei we of Edgefield shall not call the people of Saluda "home people" and love hem as such. Le?n J. Williams, from his early boy| hood has been a farmer. He is still a farmer in thought, word and deed, and . with he farmer stands, and, if necessary, with the farmer will fall. And this being ; the case, the young man's ripeness in statesnan-like thought and experience is reallv wonderful, and proves that his mina i an elastic and many-sided one. i And ths is just what Leon J. Williams's ? mind is?quick, elastic and many-sided? ^ joined o a brain and a hand brave tc dare anl do. Mr. Williams needs not in the slightest ' any helpor boosting from blood or ances' try, but,at least to a man of the writer's age and ;arly training, it will not hurt 5 him to sty that patriotic and statesman1 like Souh Carolina blood flows in his : veins. H: is a great grandson of sturdy old Governo* John D. Williams, of South Carolina?a Darlington man, who in the - old, higl, better days held the Palmetto State Sit'ely anchored to its proud history. Yes,.is we have said, the absolute and enthusiastic unanimity of Edgefield and Saluia for Leon J. Williams is remarkable?and not yet remarkable?and bodes wel for the young man whose worthy anbitiou is to serve his people in the L/Congress of the United States. .Palmam qui meruit ferat!?Edgefield Chronicle, March 31. Seldom has a candidate for any office met with such universal and hearty approval from all sections of the district as has been manifested for Hon. L. J. /-K* J ? r>V> A.l A?/l Vvftl AT?Acl ? liiiaillS, lllC Ui&Liii??Uisucu auu uuvilu son of old Edgefield. Mr. Williams represented this county in the memorable long session of 1S90, and was considered an untiring worker, a man of great executive ability, and of unquestioned influence and integrity. He introduced the bill which took the management out of the hands of the State house officials, and put it charge of a board of control, now the board of directors. He was elected as a member of this board of control and later, in 1901, was elected chairman of the board of directors of the dispensary. He has since that time served as chairman without opposition. His service has been characterized by untiring energy, clean-handed and business ability, which has put the dispensary in the best condition it has been since it was inaugurated. Many men have gone into this business with a clean record and come out with their reputations stained with suspicion. Mr. Williams leaves the dispensary of his own accord with clean hands and unsullied reputation. He has t I have just purct make room for tl in my harness lii Make Buggies ai am berg j proven himself a elean, honest, and capI able man, of great business and executive j ability, and has demonstrated in his past 1 public service his peculiar litness for the I high position to which he aspires.- That i bewwill ably, honorably and creditably j represent the second congressional disj trict in the halls of congress, few if any, nnlv in thi? district, hnt, in the State. will question.?Johnston Monitor, March 31. To the voters of the second district who do not know personally Hon. L. J. Williams, Edgefield county's distinguished son who has announcement in the News, who will receive hearty support in his home county where he is best known we say, do not decide upon who you I will vote for until you see him and hear ! his platform. His home county will sup! port him, and is proud of his past record ! as a public servant, and the best recommendation he has is the people who have known him from his youth up, endorse him and will vote for him to be their next congressman. Read his announcement on this page.?Johnston News, March 30. Notice to Road Overseers. As the recent rains have torn the roads 1 up over the county, I would like for each overseer to warn his hands out and put 1 their road in good conditition.
