never thought
could be is yours to
command quick as
you buy some Prince
Albert and fire-up a
pipe or a home-made
cigarette!
Prince Albert gives
you every tobacco sat
isfaction your smoke-
appetite ever hankered
for. That’s because
it’s made by a patented
process that cuts out
bite and parch! Prince Albert has always
been sold without coupons or premiums.
We prefer to give quality!
Nike Albert
the national joy emoke
has a flavor as different as it is delightful You never tasted the like of it!
And that isn't strange, either. . .
Men who think they can’t smoke a pipe or roll a ciga
rette can smoke and will smoke if they use Prince
Albert. And smokers who have not yet given P. A. a try
out certainly have a big surprise and a lot of enjoyment
coming their way as soon as they invest in a supply.
Prince Albert tobacco will tell its own story 1

——
I shall not make use of that old
hackneyed phrase by saying Fellow
Citlxens, but ehall say Instead what
I feel my friends. * r
I regret there Is no provision msde
for those who are candidates for
msgistrate addressing the people,
for I should Uke to be surrounded
by the yoemany of my country and
look into their sun bronzed faces,
made so by honest toll, and see again
those who I am proud to claim ?.s
friends. 1
For taking a retrospective view of
the past I see here, there and yon
der men 1 have met before; met at
times, places and under circumstan
ces well calculated to bind our
hearts in a lasting friendship and
to cement that friendship for all
time.
I only wish i could meet my peo
ple face to face and could deliver to
them an address filled with beauti
ful phrases and well sounded periods,
telling them the feeling of my soul,
but 1 am deprived of this pleasure.
But I can and do tell you that the
heart of Jim Tapers beats in union
with yours, every pulsation sending
bark to you the same feeling of
sympathetic friendship and esteem,
which goes oflt to me from you all.
Ah! Memory goes back to the
davs when the dark lowering clouds
of radi/alisHJkhad settled over this
beloved county of ours like a stifling
miasmaJ „
. When the Carpet .fBagger ran
rough shod over our people’s rights,
tt*- thieves and robbers had their
poisonous fangs fastened upon our
white throats in a desperate effort
to sap our very life blood away.
When to be a democrat and dare
maintain it a man had to possess
something more in his composition
than hot air. Ah! It was then we
met as friends and brothers. Band
ed together with a hoop of steel, that
thirst for freedom we determined
to rescue our beloved country from
the robber band that infested our
fair land. Pr else leave our bones
to bleach upon Carolina’s soil. We
presented to the enemy a solid
phalanx of determined men, and
.brethren every man with a single
purpose, and that purpose was for
God and country.
With elbow touching elbow!
shoulder to shoulder! yea, you could
almost hear the'heart throb as we
w-ot forth ami swept the enemy
frwtu our fair land, once more res
cuing the proudest State in the
union, and reaching down we drag-
iped from under the aliens hill and
out of the mire, where the robber
band had placed her, dear old Car
olina-—placing her back upon yonder
high pedestal that she was accus
tomed to occupy and had a right to
expect at the hands of her sons.
We. at the same time, placed at
her feet her proud daughter, dear
old Colleton—that county that that
loveable Christian gentleman, wise
statesman and hero soldier, Wade
Hampton, told me in the «ity of
Charleston, as he held my hand bid
ing me goodbye, he said: ‘‘Capers,
my son, all the counties have done
nobly, but there is one that has
covered beraelf with glory—that
county is Colleton, whose achieve
ment made it possible for me to de-
icnnd from the government at
Washington recognition of our gov
ernment. When you go home say
to my people for me that this old
sweet heart sends them his love—
duar old Colleton, the place where f
first saw the day. and which I love,
yea. far better than life.”
I arp indeed prdud that I was one
of the charter members, and also the
very youngest who in 187« met in
the town of Walterboro and in a
convention there assembled, after a
stormy session lasting two days and
nights, placed before the people a
ticket composed of Rtraight-out dem-
ocrats to fight the robber band then
in power and secure our country.
How well did we plan and support
that ticket until victory perched up
on our banners history ?cn tell.
We made dear old Colleton reach
up and tear from the pole the flag,
and literaliyX cover herself with
glory. tSv ,
Well do 1 remember the noblest
Homan of them all. Buht Fishburne,
vjlzard.

I*' I was wortky ia that day and
time to be intrusted with matters
upon which the very liberty of our
people depended, and have done
nothing to forfeit that confidence.
I now feel I can come and aak my
people to renew that confidence by
electing me as their magistrate. If
you will do this I promise you I
shall be true to myself. For it fol
lows ag night the day, if you be tru*
to thine own self you can’t be false
to any man.
For I can look back with a par
donable pride upon all my ancestors
who from colonial days and on down
and through the late war have ever
been fpund fighting under the flag.
Yea! many of them have watered
the earth with their life’s blood,
fallen upon sleep, and with our
beloved Jackson ha\> crossed ove’-
the river and are resting under the
shade of the trees.
For no Carolinian who has born'*
the name of Capers has ever been
known to flee from an enemy or
forsake a friend in the hour of need,
and God being my helper, and I
know He Is. I shall never- be the ex
ception. so help my God!
No man who shall honor me with
his suffrage will ever have cause to
regret having done so. And if the
two patriots. Robt. Fishburne and
Mad Howell, who sleep in the city
of the dead near Walterboro. where
the beautiful live oak stands over
their graves, were alive I know thev
would gladly bear witness of mo n
the past to my people and party.
In that day and time I want to
ask these hot air artists, who now
imagine the land belongs to the
righteous, and that they are it. whet’e
were they- when I was spending and
being spent and endangering my
life and liberty in the defense of my
people. . \ •
Echo answers where—for it is a
well known fact that 1 spent my
money in their defense literally in
bunches. Yea. 1 at one time paid
a negro ^Hipervjsor at Jacksonhorcy
$4 00 for hjm to see and not to see.
and to even be able to do tliis^l had
to pay a one-eyed negro. Trial Jus
tice Adam Smith by name, $50 to
get in touch with this supervisor the
night before the election. Because
the republicans had sent from Wal
terboro the smartest from amongst
them, Jackson Grant by name, to
wntch this super vigor and keep me
from bamboozling him.
Yet I nevertheless turned a re
publican vote of over 1,000 into a
sweeping democratic victory that
caused the dePbat of Robt. Small,
the negro congressman, and the elec
tion of Col. Wm. Elliott, of Beau-
fort to succeed him.
Oh! turn backward, turn back
ward. Oh! time! in your flight, that
I might once more live in that glor
ious past, of which 1 had something
to do. that 1 might catch an inspira
tion from that day and time that
shall go with me until my sun shall
set in the western horizon, and sus
tain ute until I shall have fallen up
on sleep.
Oh! unfurl the banner, flaunt her
to the breeze. Write the name ol’
Win. E. Capers thereon, and I say
I too have come io.
I claim the man who Alls the of
fice of magistrate should possess in
telligence of a high order; a man
well versed in the laws of his coun
try and capable of interpreting thos*.
laws correctly, which shall fit him
to render an intelligent service to
the people. — 7"
A man Ip whom the people have
a perfect confidence, that he will do
his full duty by them and possesses
the determination to see that the
laws are enforced. Especially in
our part of the county.
In offering you my services as
your ufcgistrate. I claim to possess
all these,, virtues, which fit one to
serv> you intelligently and well.
And I promise you here and no.v
that the day I longer do so. I will
be man enough to hand you back
your credentials you si kindly in
trusted nie with and step down and
out. Should you think me worthy
•f vour suffrage I shall render you
faithful and diligent service and
appreciate y*u r confidence.
In conclusion I beg to say to mme

then county chairman, and some of u l )nI1 l.he political horizon. n«
