Now. those who know me know that this is false without ni" having to say so. The people had an opportunity to vote for or against a proposed bond issue for the county —in other words the delegation re ferred the matter to the people tor their decision, and for them to pass upon it. Judging from the vote re ceived, although very-light, the peo ple do not wish roads built with a bond issue. Being a democrat, and a consistent oi^e, I certainly do not think it would be right to go over the heads of the people and enact a road bond issue, which they emphati cally said they did not want. I have never thought, intimated nor said I would do apy thing of the kind, anil the person who spread this re port diil so knowing it to be false The lloail Bond l «sue. ^ ^.

I was very active as a member of th*» House, as Mr. Goodwin. Senator Badgett - or any other person who j»ad occasion to observe my work- theip will say. I not only interest ed myself on local matters, but I took a lively interest in matters of State-wide importance, for I real ized that I was a Representative nor only of Colleton county but r: South Carolina. There arc dozens of men elected to the S^ate legisla ture who seq;u to think that,they are there only to secure a few little acts for their couflty, and matter:: of State-wide nature do not receive their attention. My appointment on the Ways and Means committee of the House placed me In position, -to do mere Than would have heel* possible for me to have done other wise. All matters of legislation fn« volvlng the expenditure of iiioney must come before this committee, and membership on it is much cov eted. Colleton county has had only three members of this committee, so far as I know. Hon. C. W. Gai- ris. Hon. D. L. Smith and myself have served oa this important cbm- gett is going back without opposi tion, and I like to think I also am a candidate for re-election without, opposition. Goodwin Is not going hack, and (he four other Candida* can contest for his place. . >«m<l whichever one of them yoij. wish hack and Senator Badgett anti I will do the best we can with him. I shall thank yLu fojp^our interest in my behalf, and also if you feel that you do not understand any po sition I may h»\ e tnken. please let me have an opporCunitv to explain it. , • y* SihcA-ely.
