Kery i< in a local hospital delirious is the result of an automobile accilent Tuesday night at the bridge over he Southern railroad three miles from Gainesville. The car in which :he men were riding crashed 30 feet u the railroad tracks. Both men were from near Lawlenceville, C.a.. it is said, and they had been up in the mountains after liquor. One hundred gallons of whisii \v< re said to lia,-e been found in the car. An eyewitness said the ca< was traveling at a high rate of speed and did not slow up for the sharp turn onto the bridge, crashing through the bridge onto the tracks below. Carl Kery is still alive but is strapped to his bed in a serious condition. Allen died at 1 o'clock Wednesday morning. He was badly cut about the head, his jaw broken in many places and injured internally. Here is the Combination The Charleston American, of which Mayor John r. oraro is business manager, printed yesterday a.leading editorial advocating the election of exCovernor Blease in the second primary. The Charleston American in a seeend editorial yesterday said: "The President of the United Stales is a noble American. No more goldenhearted gentleman ever occupied the White House of the nation. Our Prosidont believes in justice and righteousness. His brain is sound and nis heart right." Warren G. Harding, Republican, is president. In the Charleston American, in June, 1921, a letter was prilled signed Co'.e L. Blease, to Joseph W. Tolhert. eentaining this language. "I am a Democrat; not a Wilson so-called Democrat hut a Jeffersonian Democrat, who rejoiced at Harding's election and the downfall of idealism. ' Joseph W. Toibcrt is the recognized boss of the "black and tan" Republican party in South Carolina. The Charleston American is the only daily newspaper in South Carolina that supported any candidate for governor in the first primary. The American, even at this time, with the second primary less than two weeks otr, supporting Mr. Blease, goes out i f its way to praise the Republican president in such extravagant language as "no more golden-hearted gentleman ever occupied the Whit3 House of the nation!" At Walhalla the question was asked c.f the six candidates for governor: "Did you vote for James M. Cox and the Democratic ticket in 1920?" Mr. McLeod, Mr. Uaney, Mr. Duncan, Mr. Cantey and Mr. Coleman answered instantly and unqualifiedly that they did. Mr. Blease ignored the question. The next day Mr. Blease said that he had always voted the Democratic ticket and had never vot d a Republican ticket. Mr. Blease has never said explicitly that he vot d the Democratic ticket in 1920. The Charleston American is extolling President Harding and on the same page and in the same column i?- viDemocrats to nominate Mr Please for governor. In HMO Mr. Rleasc was for a time :i candidate for congress in the Seventh district outside of the primary and advising his supporters not to vote in the primary. Is there a sane Democrat in South rnvolinn who nelieves that the Democratic party is not in danger? If Warran G. Harding were the "noble American" that Mr. John P Grace's "American" pictures him. would o.Tsoph W. Tolbert he the if Mr. Harding's party in South Car )lina and his appointee as United - marshal? Democrats of South Carolina, y-u have the combination before you. Mr. Please is the Charleston American's candidate. Mr. Harding is the Char, leston's American's "golden-hearted president." Mr. Please has "rejoiced" it Mr. Harding's electhion. He wrote o Joseph Tolbert of his rejoicing. Such is the re >rd, Democrats of South Carolina. It, is all taken from he Charleston American and part f t is over Mr. Pleasc's signature. it tne icnwerais oi rvaun ? aroiina .cant th.i kind of Democracy, that is he kind of Democracy they want *\nd there is nothing more to say.
