Attorney General J. Krazor Lyon r .'iterated his promise to tbe people in his opening campaign speed) at St. Matthews on Wednesday saying that he would put the ' grafters" behind the bars. Public sentlraeut appeals ( to be growing in Gen. Lyon's favor >n | as much as lie received the grealesi amount of applause at the meeting 01 that day. He said that justice war being tbr&thed but that inihetn all would be r ght and justice prevail His utterances were positive. All the pledges have been tiled foi c State otllces and the United St^ie 5 Senate. Now the different platformi t will have to be thrashed out on th< stump and put it up to the peoph to decide for themselves Many ambitious candidates who 01 ' Wednesday started out at Sumter witl light hearts and victory written 01 a their faces will have to suffer the 1 chagrin of defeat at the polls 011 elec - ( 1. tion day. Its a pity they all cannot t win, but if they all could win. where . would the glory of victory be,and what would the large daily and small weekly papers do for material. We hope ^ that the campaign now In progres> t will be conducted on a high plane and j all personalities and mud slinging !>' * entirely eliminated. tl There is a revolt against gambling extending from New York to New 0.? leans and it will doubtless detrimentally affect horse racing. The slenaer, f Dngil egged, nervous horse that has y,, been cultivated so assiduously for two f? jenturies is out of it. He is no longer o( accessary or useful. The telegraph. l< ;be telephone, the wireless ether, to iay nothing of the coming air ship, tas made him a back number. He ias too long held the field to the det- " Iment of a more useful and handsome ype of horse, the weight carrier, the irrJage horse, the draught horse. If alf the money had been spent on tese types that has been spent on inning horses, the equine prooession ^ 1 an i our streets would be ama/.lngly and nj ef illy improved. The horse shows en e useful. The racecourse is not only ucv ?le93, it Is vicious, Announcements.
