"Take up his charges one by one: ITe charges that I have ignored the civil service rules. The records show the contrary. I have recommended about 300 postmasters in South Caroi:? mi ?n i.A?M lllltt. mcy nave mi UCUI null! tivn service recommendations. There arc today 4G women postmasters in this state, or 11 more appointed by Pres. ident Harding: than by President Wil son. I deny that I have endeavorec to turn out women postmasters. Whet the civil service office submits a lis of three eligibles I am allowed t' select one of the three. This is th rulo nil over the United States, li many cases I have asked Republicai county chairmen for recommenda tions. In only one case can it. be s- it that a woman was not retained in ; postoffice in South Carolina. It wa rot my wish that she not be kept ii office, but the county chairman an another white Republican urged tha the recommendation go to a whit man, who was also on the eligible lisi | It was done, though personally it wa j a matter of regret that the woma ! could not be retained. Neither i this case nor in any other was thev any money consideration or hint o one. "The first charge of money wa made by two Republicans of Orang< burg, who undertook to move heave and earth to keep B. F. Mixson froi being made postmaster. One of thei wanted the postmastership for hin self. An affidavit was sent to Sem tor Dial that Mixson had offered t secure confirmation for the woma postmasber at Bowman if she woul pay him $300. I got an affidavit froi I her that she did not know Mixson an j had never been solicited by him t pfty any money for any purpose. Fui ther than that, I have a letter frot her, received only a few days ago, e> pressing her sincere appreciation fc getting the office.

These two Republicans, wl are sore against me, Tolbert, becau: 1 refuse to recognize them, then mac a turn. They sent Senator Dial a affidavit that a man named D." 1 Berry made the offer to this lady, got an affidavit from Berry, denyin that he had ever acted as agent fo Mixson and sent this to Senator Dia Still he helped these two Republican and they thought they were makin trouble for me. The whole truth wa that one of them wanted the plac himself, as he had beer, almost raise in the postoffice. I took pleasure n recommending for the place a youni Democrat, Dan Dukes, who now ha the place. "I deny that I have refused to oc Vno\7ledge the preference for soldier "Who were on the civil service lis r.nd I have the record to show it. "When Senator Dial says that hi is informed that under previous ad ministrations the referee In this stati sold patronage, I suppose he mean: Republican ndttrinifttratfons and if h< does, the Republican administration: were represented in South Carol:w by other Republican?; than myself The last refeiees in this state Wev< the late John G, Capers and A.

Housewives make a great mistake in allowing themselves to become so weak wiu un tuus umi it is wen-niRti impossible for them to attend to their necessary household duties. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound should be taken when you first notice such symptoms as nervousness, backache, weakness and irreprularity. It arill help you and prevent more serious trouble.
