Many new supporters have come to me sine** the first primary. M.*ny of my t friends who wanted to support me before were prevented * by having close friends or relatives in the race. All these are now for me, 1 promise the people to properly fill the office "in every detail. J shall live in the jail and make my home there a fit place for my friends—My home has always been the home of my friends. I promise absolute impartiality in the enforcement of law and in the performance of all the duties of the office. J fee| that 1 am well quaP fied to he sheriff, and I shall not disappoint any who will repose eon fidence in me. *1 have alway. wanted to be sheriff I have spent my life helping and'’serving, others and have not received rior asked t.ionetaiy „ reward. Fni ;.!1 tne work I lav<* ever done L’um yet _ pom man financially. I believe my friends everywhere will now re ward me by gratifying my life’- • mbition to be sheriff of Colleton county. I request my friends to he active tempting to give aiy reasons in de tail, 1 believe 1 van lout serve my State at this time by supporting Gov. Manning. A man in public life should act according to the dic tates of his conscience and judg mvnt wUhout',iegard to the .effect which/his course may have upon hlaJ IU(I ,y ,f or a st a t, persona) political fortune and should second primary also forget any wrong which may have been done him wjien what In conreiv.es to be his duty to his State iSoat stake. “I do not presume to dictate do the friends who voted for me. THev have a sovereign right to their hal lot. I make this statement as to myself for the reasons set forth above, ami. further, that I may not he accused of political cowardice or of sulking in my tent.” « j _— Statement I'roni "To the Democratic Voters of South Carolina: I desire to express to you my highest appreciation of the very complimentary vote which was cast for me and for the prin ciples for which I stand, in the pri mary election held last Tuesday, and I desire to call your attention to the .follow ing facts: "In the home county of Mr. Man ning. Sumter, he only led by a very small vote. In his former home county, whose county seat is named in honor of his grandfather, you will find a handsome majority for me; qnd in each of the border.coun ties touching his home—Florence. Darlington. Lee, Kershaw, Richland and clarendon, you will find that I have defeated him. In my former home county, Newberry. I have led. as also in the counties adjoining H.’of alt the people of my State, and viz: Saluda, Greenwood, Islington, let the past be the past, and by- Falrfleld, Union and I only lacked gones be bygones, and instead of a few votes of equalling the vote of trying to stir up bitterness, as he Mr. Cooper In his home county of d his supporters are now doing. 1 Laurens In my adopted home, propose to try to create among all Richland, where I have lived for the Ihe 1 people of the State, love for past six years, and where I now vote.' peaee. for prosperity and for happi- the result was as follows: BI ease. ness, and to have my friends, and. present Governor. He further says: He (Blease) polls his full strength in the first primary always.’ ' 1 pre sume he has forgotten the use of the English language, when lie uses the won! always,' and he has for gotten the truth \*h*n he says full strength.’ This is only the second time that I have been in seeon<j pri- offloe. and in the of It*In my vote was materially increased over lh«* first, and I was elected Governor. The same thing will happen again in l!tlt>. "He also says: *.\ Cooper vote is an anti-Rlease vote.’ If I am any judge. I think it could be more truthfully said that a Cooper vote is an anti-Manning vote, for he, and not I. is the Governor who has been repudiated by the Cooper people. / He further says: ’It is the same sit> nation as two years ago.’ Again he forgets the truth! Two years ago I was not in the Gubernatorial race. Had I been, the State would never have been humiliated with the Man ning administration. “Again, he. says: 'I started this morning to win the fight, and I am going to win it.’ I am proud to say that I did not start id the begininng to fight. I started in to forgive and forget to make my campaign, as I did. upon a high plane, and with the solemn promise to be Governor of all the people of my State. This I expect to be. And I do not expect to stand on the State. House steps, as he did. and hold up my hands and swear to be Governor of all the State, and then turn mound, as he did and kick out every man who votes against me and put in only mv friends. 1 shall truly be Governor Manning. Cooper, 2.924; 1.013. Now, fellow citizens, take these — and compare them so far as 1 can. the whole people of South Carolina, turn to the upbuild ing of our agriculture and our com merce. and all legitimate husine«< respective votes ........ and see which of tiie two men stands and industry, and to the uplift of best and hac most friends where he was horn and roared, and where he is best known. If it be by that cri terion that you judge us, your con science w-ill dictate that you vote for Bleaso. "Now, again, take the counties that have the largest prininry vote (or instance, Anderson. Greenville. Spartanburg. York. Cherokee. Pick ens- and look at the heavy, vote re ceived by me there, and you will find, that while Mr. Cooper receiv ed a very complimentary vote. 1 led in the race, and that Governor Man ning was repudiated by receiving a mere' pittance. In very few of the counties of the State did Mr. Manning even re ceive a plurality. In the Pee De«\ where his friends claimed that he would sweep the field, you will find him in a minority. In Horry. Mar ion Dillon. Marlboro, Chesterfield. Darlington, Florence. Georgetown, his friends are sorely disappointed and weeping because of the fart that administration, has proven tasteful to the white people through out the entire State. "In his statement he says: ‘A our people, and to service of their State and country, and a devotion to high ideals which will not only receive a proper reward in thh world, but in the world to come. The people have endotsed this fnurse taken by me in the campaign, hy the following vote BJeas- 59.non, iso far reported r. Cooper. 28.g>»7; Manning. 38.4*>5. And at the next primary 1 will again V chosen the Democratic nominee for Governor of South Carolina, and once again the State will movg on in prosperity, and without interrup tion of progress ” - ta-te, A M.
