]
Columbia, July 7.?Dan Murphy, <
aged man of the state penitentiary, 1
the Orangeburg prisoner, who has
spent the past quarter of a century *
in the state's bastile, the man who
not long ago announced that he did (
not want the pardon which the par- 1
don board recommended, is to have '
| a new experience. He is to call on (
Go ver.nor^ Wilson G. Harvey at an 1
early date, for the governor has writ- ^
ten Dan that he will see him at the i
executive office in the capitol. 1
Dan wants to talk about the rec- J
ommended pardon. Dan announced
that he did not want the pardon, 1
when the pardon board first mention- '
ed it, but it has changed his mind.
There has been some "rough stuff" i
in the prison, among the unruly ele- 1
ment of the prisoners, and Dan says
life isn't as beautiful as it once was.
The new element, yong men or for- J
eigp, witjh a spirit of unrest that m'ay J
be war born, is not wh^t Dan was
ncorl iV* A A- A** c?- ? '

of his stay in the penitentiary, and
he is now ready to take the pardon, 1
he says, if the governor will grant it. 1
To this end Dan wrote to the governor.
a few days ago, asking that he ^
might have an audience with his ex- 1
cellency. And on yesterday Governor
Harvey wrote to Dan, stating 1
that he would see him and that he {
would arrange a date very soon.
Dan became a -famous man about 1
a year ago, when T^he Record arrang- 1
ed to have him see a moving picture
show, at the Imperial Theater. It 1
was me urst movie ne naa ever/Seen, 1
and the ride he took to the theater
was the first he had ever had in an automobile.v
It was the time of his
young life. And now he's to talk to
a governor, in the governor's office.
Dan has seen a quarter .century
"pass, since he entered the prison
gates, convicted of the murder of
County Treasurer Cope, of Orangeburg.
To this day however, he denies
his guilt, only circumstantial
evidence having convicted him. He
says he was in Augusta at the time
of the murder. A petition for his
pardon was sent to Gevernor Cooper
some months ago, aifl!*"the pardon
board's approval was given it. It
was held up, however, at Dan's request,
the old man stating that he
preferred to wait in the prison with
Superintendent Sanders in charge, ?
than to go out and t^y to overtake a i
world that had a tyenty-five years
start on him. 1

f
(By R. P. Bellinger.) d
/
' Among the few things left free and c
untrammeled by the federal government
to the citizens of South Carolina
' are the right to pay their own debts ?
' and the privilege to run for office t:
in the Democratic primary, and so 24
candidates for only S state offices ex- g
ercised that privilege here last Thurs^ b
^ day, and beginning at 10 o'clock in c
L the morning thundered their hot air a
1 into the dear "peepul" of Bamberg fi
and adjoining counties until nearly g
5 four that afternoon. Every speaker L
1 was accorded a respectful and atten- i
tive hearing. At one time there were
^ at least 500 voters in the audience, c
1 some coming from Colleton and many g
from Orangeburg county. Interspers- d
^ ed among the men were probably fifty I
\ or more of the new variety of voters, f
L formerly referred to as suffragettes, E
" but now honored with the old time s
' sobriquet of full fledged, real dyed- I
in-the-wool Democrats. And con- a
trary to every other campaign meet- t!
iii or mror >1 olA in "Ramhorf twX r>f thp T
female of the species made their ap- e
pearance on the hustings and each in f
turn made a good impression. The c
day was also delightfully free from h
the old vilification and vituperation, a
and all in all, was one of the most c
successful campaign days for state c
' offices that Bamberg county has yet a
' enjoyed. And everybody took dots f
as to how we are to have good roads, t
' better schools and no taxes. e
Promptly at the appointed hour t
the meeting was opened with a beau- p
' 4tiful prayer in keeping with the oc- o
casion by Rev. S. 0. Cantey, pastor li
of Trinity Methodist church, this ii
[ city. This was immediately followed e
by a brief and appropriate address of p
welcome to the numerous candidates t
j by Hon. Jesse Francis Carter, county b
. chairman of his party. Mr. Carter t
gave some sound advice to the voters t
and assured to all candidates a well I
m
merited attention. He then intro- g
' duced the first candidate to show \
himself on the stand, B. Harris, of i
I Anderson, asking to succeed himself b
. as commissioner of agriculture, and a
^ the other 23 speakers came along in a
j the following order. i1
Mr. Harris stated that he had been c
a farmer all his life, had been work- t
' ing on the farmer's problems for 30 i
years and'this is his mission in life, a
The state department of agriculture t
pays its own expenses, according to t
t him. The farmer is the only man s
r who works in cooperation with God c
Almighty, and every evil against a
farming can be remedied except the t
weather, but he made no attempt to c
outline the remedy. ' i
,, State Senator George W. Wight- j
man, of Saluda, then fired away with 1
an aggressive speech, made a good i
. showing, and if Thursday's indica- n
. tions sDell anything will easily carry t
i j
Bamberg county against Harris. He s
started by saying it was funny Har,
ris wanted him to run for governor, j
t but is trying to beat him for com- \
3 missioner of agriculture. Harris a
. hasn't had time in four years to pre- j
scribe the remedy for farmers, "but s
3 elect me," says Wightman, "and so T
5 help me God if I get the information j
. he says he has I'll do more for you c
3 than go around hot airing." He is j
3 a farmer born and bred. He repeat-4 t
ed several times that he is going to c
j be elected, and rubbed it into Harris T
. for telling" the farmers to hold their *
cotton for 50 and 75 cents and not (
, being in position to refer to that s
r now. . c
)
Robt. E. Craig, of Darlington, try- f
L ing to be adjutant and inspector gen- f
. eral, used a good portion of his ten f
t minutes by telling an apt story of a j
Bamberg county boy under bis com- c
. mand on the battle fields of Belgium, j
) He paid a glowing tribute to the fol- f
I lowers of the immortal Lee and Jack- s
I son, and told of his own life and t
. family tree. We may never need the a
guards for combat, but if so Bob Q
Craig is always ready and for coun- a
try, right or wrong. v
Thomas E. Marshall, of Columbia, j,
? Mr. Craig's only opponent, next took j
r his shot with the national guard, r
. which he has always had at heart. s
L He cited some statistics to prove $
that during the* past years the fed- g
[ ?eral government paid $230,000 to the f
. militia men of this state, and the p
cost to the state government was only j.
j $46,000. He told of his education h
r and his service on the border with c
j the guards; he entered the world L.
war as a member of the 30th divis- r
ion and served throughout in the n
thick of the fight except while he _
was in the hospital wounded. He

r>p? not act fnr fhp inh nn that on

or a duty welljdone. He exempliled
his qualifications for adjutant
eneral and says he knows the duies
of the office thoroughly.
Here entered the aspirants for
overnor, and four big guns began
ooming for 20* minutes each; the
andidates for other offices were only
llowed 10 minutes a piece. The
rst man to ask for your support as
overnor was Senator George K. :v- ;
.aney, of Chesterfield. Every man
n the governor's race is a lawyer. >
Sen. Laney began by commenting
>n woman suffrage and predicting
;ood results therefrom, although he *t
lid not . say that he had favored it.
le has been in the general-assembly
or twenty years and cites former
iamberg county representatives and * ,
enators to tell of his record there,
le blames the federal government
md Democratic administration * for
he deflation and downfall since 1920. le
literally closed his office and aidd
in every war movement in Chester
ield county. In view of desperate x >
onditions he advocates economy and
ie has continually voted in the sente
against all commissions, tax and
otherwise. The governor has a fine
ipportunity to cut down government,1
development expenses and by car'eul
investigation can save thousands J
o tax payers; promises so to do if
lected. He advocates equalization of
axes between all parties, land ownrs,
bond owners, personal property
wners, etc. Laney introduced the
aws for the protection of the farmer
n buying fertilizers. He is a farmr
and lawyer, and desires the opportunity
to shift the burden of the
axes from the farmer's back. He
'oosts the income tax law, explains
he inheritance tax law and%pholds
he same. He predicts that if his
>olicies are carried out the state
;overnment can operate without tax
IVl TTf_ i. "T?
ng property at. an. nis neart nea
a trying to remedy the tax question,
iut he dramatically pictured poverty
nd illiteracy going hand in hand, # ^
,nd stands unequivocally for the ed- 0 -* i.
ication of every youth who will acept
it. He dwelt at length upon
he question of law enforcement, sayng
that he would deal with crime
md criminals with a strong, firm
land because civilization and all
hat is near and dear to us as the
ubjects of a proud and sovereign
ommonwealth rest upon the found- *
ition of law and order upheld by
he dignity and determination of a
ihief executive resolved to do the
ight guided by the foresight and
udgment of a stern Christian man
larboring full faith and confidence
n the power and justice of an allvise
God to steer him aright. Sena-?
or Laney created a splendid impres
UUU.
Thomas G. McLeod, of Lee county,
ike Laney, began with a couple of
louquets for the ladies and also told
l pair of good stories. Mr. McLeod
s fortunate in possessing a clear,
;mooth voice and is at his best when
ising to his heights of eloquence;
lis speech was probably the best revived
of the day and he created a
lealthy sentiment in his favor, alhough
it would be difficult to ac:urately
determine which candidate
vas rewarded with the greatest ap- ilause.
Mr. McLeod discussed the
change of conditions along all lines
;ince the start of the world war. He
lees signs of the greatest prosperity
or the farmer in the'future; the
armer has the right to say what his
>roducts should bring, and by work.
ng in harmony and cooperation he
an bring about this advantage. He
s a lawyer and of course a me long
armer. (All candidates farm, so they
ay.) He discussed the tax situaion,
saying people were cussing
,bout high taxes when as a matter
if fact, what taxes we pay is largely
l local matter and can be made
rhatever our people cause our legslators
to make them. He said
Samberg county last year paid for
ounty purposes $48,283.65, for
chool purposes $68,593.87 plus
11,777.38 appropriated by the state
:overnment, and only $51,501.48
or state purposes. Thus he said 75
