MAYOR It. GOODWIN RHKTT ANNOl'NCKR
FOR SFNATF.
Charleston's Executive Mukos Formal
Statement of IIis ('undidncy?Solicits
Support of Voters.
Special to The State.
Charleston, Juno 10. MayorKhett
announced his candidacy tonight for
United States senator and will (lie
liis pledge tomorrow.
Following a conference at his office
at the People's National hank
lie gave out the following statement:
"To the Democratic Voters of
South .Carolina: 1 have determined
to he a candidate for United States
senator at the approaching primary
election. I shall tomorrow file my
pledge with the State Democrat lo
committee as required by the rules
of the party and will abide by the
rules of the primary election. 1
respectfully solicit the support of
Democratic voters of the Stat?>
"R. Goodwin Rhott."
The announcement of the candidacy
of Mayor Rhott will bo in the
nature of a surprise to the voters of
the Slate, as his name lias not heretofore
been mentioned in connection
with the office. He and oxGov. Heyward
have been close business and
personal friends for years and with
the decision of the latter to forego
making the race on account of, his
health, Mayor Khett decided to enter
the race.
Further than the statement given
above Mayor Rhott said tonight that
he had nothing to say but that in
the next few days he will pro'iaVy
u ake a statement
Mayor Khett is one of the host
known and regarded men in the State
and it is admitted that his candidacy
la a strong one. He s one of the most
successful busness men in Charleston,
having large financial interests but
these have not interfered with a
close study of public questions and
on these matters ho is particularly
well qualified to discuss and make

Ho was a delegate at large to the
Democratic national convention four
. years ago.
Ho entered upo tihis second administration
as mayor of Charleston last
December, after having served several
terms as an alderman and has
held other positions of public tnist.
Mayor Rheit has spoken before commercial
organizations in Columbia,
Anderson and other citie^ in the
interest of tho State, where he has
many strong friends an dsupporters.
, . .. -lis discussion of financial and railroad
questions have especially impressed
his knowledge of matters of the kind.
This was particularly in evidence in
the eonsldcrutio given to his views
recently on the proposed reform of
currency legislation by government
officials .and writers on financial matters.
Mayor Rhett is a good speaker
and ,he promises to make ^a hard
fight for the ofllce that he seeks, lie
will endeavor to enlighten the public
on the questions of the day and will
make the race on his merit rather

strength throughout the State.
B1,AMNS THE COURT.
Hho .Shot Doctor After Court Refused
Her Justice.
The refusal of the judges to her
charges preferred against Dr. Martin
W. Auspits, of New York, is alleged
by Miss Sarah Kat^n, a nurse,
as the reason she was Impelled to kill
the man who had outraged her. The
woman is now in the Tombs awaiting
further developments.
Mies Katen is 22 years of age. She
nays she came to this country from
Russia six years ago and became a
probationary nurse in Dr. Auspitz's
hospital. There he assaulted her.
I^ater he tried to repeat the crime
and ^he shot him to death. "I consumed
i-. lav/yet," she said, "and \v?
went to court. Rut the Judges did 11 t
believe me?they believed bim. He
was rich while I was very poor. Then
slowly came the Impulse to avenge
myself. The courts had denied me
justice. The law meant nothing. I

A Smooth Article.
Sporting Life says through some
misunderstanding the Bostons had a
fanny experience at New York with
Roy Evans formerly a National League
pitcher, who entered the club
house last Thursday, donned a Boston
uniform,.and had been at practice
half an hour before Dovey and Kelley
discovered him and asked him who he
wee . There was almost a light with
Kolley when Evans announced with
& smile that he liked the Bostons
and would stick with them. Evans
was thrown out of the uniform, and,
later President Dovey schreechod
murder when he found Evans had
registered at the hotel as one of the
Boston ball players and had been
there all week. Evans tried to join
the Orangeburg team last season.
Many a man thinks he Is a great
force because he creates so much
friction.

Ilryau the Man.
The New York Herald after what
it calls "unbiased investigation"
admits that Mr. Bryan's nomination
at Denver is now assured. The
Herald says: "The Herald in
it<3 4f?hlc fif e< n
l.;jucs 10 pi^ci Now V ?i'K w.? iv
it was scheduled last week, au not
instructed or classified. The Herald
believes that the delegation
from New York will vote for Mr.
Bryan. But the strength of
the Nebraskan is growing so rapidly
from week to week that it now
must he evident to the veriest tyro
in politics that Mr. Bryan can be
nominated without the support of
either New York or New Jersey. The
anti-Bryan managers have had an
unexpected backset. It is hard
enough to elect delegates opposed to
Bryan, but to have them apparently
elected and then discover that they
were not elected at all is maddening.
T This is what has happened
in Florida. Florida is entitled to
ten delegates. An open primary
was held, and although no question
of presidential preferences was
raised, it was announced that eight
of the delegates were opposed to
Bryan and were classed for Judge ,
Cray while two were for Bryan.
The vote of the primary was can- .
vassed last week, when it was (lis
covered that only four delegates ,
had been elected, and that these ,
were for Bryan. Six delegates will ,
have to he chosen at a second pri- (
mary. The Bryan men will be on ,
the alert and will fight for every
delegate. The loss of these eight. <
delegates reduces the number of
votes instructed or classed for
Gray from thirty-one to twentythree.
The action of the West Virginia
and New Hampshire state conventions
were serious blows to the
candidacy of Governor Johnson.
The Johnson managers expected
that both these states would refuse
to instruct and that anti-Bryan delegates
would be elected."
Control of Corporations.
There is hardly a voter in the
United States, other than Republican
politicians, who does not want
to see the Trusts and Railroads so
controlled that the price of the products
of the Trusts and the charges
i of the Railroads shall be reasonable.
Yet the Republican Administration
and the Republican controlled Congress
have done absolutely nothing
that will decrease the cost of living,
i There has been a bluff at trust busting
and a railroad or two have been
prosecuted for rebating, but can
you name a railroad or a trust thht
has reduced its prices in consequence
of . Republican legislation? This is the
tariff and trust and railroad issue of
the coming campaign. Promises
for the future and the glad hand to
the voters will not compensate for
lack of performance in the past.
Not Democratic Papers.
" 'If we cannot elect Bryan, we '
can elect no one,' says the CourierJournal.
'Mr. Bryan can not be
elected' says the New York World.
'Bryan, if nominated at Denver, is
scheduled for certain defeat,' says
the New York World. 'Bryan will
be beat before the polling places
are opened,' kays the Brooklyn
Eagle. The Omaha Bee says these
democratic newspapers seem to have
a very keen appreciation of the political
situation." Where did you
pick up the notion that the New
York World and the Brooklyn Eagle

Nature has provided the stomach ^
with certain natural flunds knowu as J
the digestive juices, and it is through
these juices that the food we eat is
acted upon in such a way as to pro- 1
duce the rich, red blood that flows
through the veins of our body and 1
thereby makes us strong, healthy
and robust, and It is the weakening
of these digestive juices that destroy
health. It is our own fault if we
destroy our own health, and yet it
is so easy for any one to put the 1
stomach out of order. When you i
need to take something take it ,
promptly, but take something you
know is reliable?something like

Kodol is pleasant to take, it is roll- i

Republican Promises.
The Republican national platform
is in the process of incubation, and
although it is generally unsafe to
count chickens before they are
hatched, yet the Taft machine being
in full worVirv order it should turn
ou. i he co im a . ii nu.ji v r an.- . . itv
of political chicks, it does not much
matter what policies the next Republican
platform declares for, because
that party has always gone
back on its promises, if it became
necessary to do so. Thus to judge
of what the Republican party will
do, if it should again be entrpsted
with power, it will not be necessary
to try and interpret into plain English
the ambiguous declarations,
that, the Chicago* platform will be
filled with, which may mean something
or nothing, but it will be wiser
to try and judge what the political
exigencies of the party "'after
election" will find necessary to do,
if the Fpeople are foolish enough to
give it the opportunity for more
mischief. The Republicans are 'opportunists
and always reapy to take
advantage of events as they occur.
All this talk about Roosevelt
wants this or that in the platform is
sheer humbug to fool the people,
for the President is as changeable as
Kb O lirin/I ll ie ic amKf of nrwl. I
kiiv. TV UJVi , 1110 OV/U1 IQ UlllJf ?3l.UOVr
fast on the glorification of Roosevelt,
and if "my policies" are endorsed in
the highest laudatory terms, the
tariff, the trusts, the finances, and
Dther real issues, in which the voters
are vitally interested, can be as
vague as shifty politician can invent.
The past, the only guide to the fu- 1
ture, shows that it is waste of time
to con over Republican platforms
to try and discover what may happen
politically. What we do know has
happened should be enough to turn
every wise voter from wishing a repetition.
We~Tnow that Republican
policies have produced a disastrous
panic.
We know that through bad management
and vicious extravagance
the expenses of the government
greatly exceeds its incomp. We
know that all talk of revising
the tariff that protects the trusts
and plunders the people has been
again postponed to the dim and misty
future. We know that the prom
ised currency reform is but a vicious
and miserable makeshift to benefit
the Wall Street Ranks at theexpense
of the country at large. We know
that the last Congress was a donothing
Congress as far as reform
legislation is concerned. We
know that legislation for the business
interests, the farming interests
and the workingmen's interests has
been put off to a more convenient
season. Such is the record. Promises
can hardly mend it in the minds
of sensible people.
The Chief Boodlcr.
How little people care, even the
politicians, about who is nominated
for Vice-President. And yet it is
a very important office, especially in ;
case of the demise of the President. ;
Mr. Roosevelt has kindly settled all i
the events for the Republican Con- '
mention, but evidently considers the t
natter of who shall be nominated
for Vice-President beneath his no- 1
dee. There is no excuse for Mr. i
Roosevelt unless he desires the allies
;o select someone who will be popu- i
ar in Wall Street, and thus ensure 1
,he support of "the interests'' and ^
hose who represent them. How 1
vould J. Pierpont Morgan do? He i
s the leading financier and is friend- r
y with Mr. Roosevelt and Taft and (
Morgan should knit the two factions 1
?f the pirt-y closer 'han a brother 1
fVa tne Repupliean paitj cannot [i

plentv of them, the nomination of ]
Mr. Morgan should appeal to Republican
politicians, for who could <
shake the plum tree better than he. 1
rhere would be no reason for the <
treasurer of the Republican nation- i
al Committee to beg for funds, for '
Mr. Morgan would only have to assess
"the interests" for the amount

The National Democratic Congressional
Campaign Committee has
begun active operations at its headquarters
at Washington, D. C. In
addition to its regular work, it is
now pr,,j),,ring a campaign h ?nd
1>Oi k NAtiiCt' li li?'jM'> l<> liavo
lor distribution by Juiy 1?-two or
three months earlier than heretofore.
The Committee is charged with
the duty of assisting, in every way
possible, the election of a Democratic
Congress. We wish the active
co-operation of eve> voter in
the United States who believes, with
U3, that the election of a Democratic
Congress would greatly benefit
the country. We must rely upon
the people to sustain our work by
giving information as to local conditions,
and suggestions for our
guidance.
IOach individual can at least aid us
by making a contribution. Will he
not do so and interest others in helping
us, too?
We wish our campaign hand book
distributed as generally as possible,
and we will furnish a copy, as soon
as published, to every one who contributes
to our committee.

Chairman.
At 1 fi?* Mercy of Wall Street.
Following is from the Omaha
World-Herald:
No citizen desiring an understanding
of just what congress did
in passing the Aldrich-Vreeland bill
can allow the editorial published in
the Philadelphia North American to
go unread. That is one of the very
few big republican newspaper that
are not edited from Wall Street.
The gallant fight the North American
made against the infliction of
this monstrous outrage on the
American people entitles it to a nation's
gratitude even though it
was a losing fight, like LaFollette's.
We ask our readers to bear in
mind that it is a fearless and honest
republican newspaper that characterizes
this currency bill congress
has passed as "embodying every rotten
Wall Street device that lay in
the earlier bills, and discarding every
amendrpent for the protection
of honest banking and legitimate
business;" that declares is a "stab
at the commerce of the country;"
that asserts it was "foisted upon
people at the dictates of Wall
Street" and brands it as "a mongrel
hybrid, cheating, swindling thing."
We ask our readers to remember
that it is a republican newspaper
that admits this law "will mean the
turning over of the treasury of the
United States to the gamblers of the
New York stock exchange for a period
of six years;" that it is a republican*
newspaper asserting "it will
mean the making of 'good times'
and 'bad times,' of 'bull' markets
and 'bear' markets according to the
pleasure of Rogers and Rockefeller
in the National City bank, and J.
P. Morgan in the National bank of
Commerce."
This is what a republican congress
las given the country as an "emergency"
measure.
The same men who prepared it,
ind had the nerve to push it
through congress on the eve of a
general election, are now at the
lead of the commission that will
irepare a permanent currency bill.
These men are Aldrich, of Standard
Dil, and Vreeland, the New York
ranker. The bill they prepare will
le enacted into law. after election,
f the republican party continues to
lontrol contrreRs nnH
M.IV. vibVW W1C UCAl
president.
If the Aldrich-Vreeland bill is
what they gave us as a "temporary"
law in advance of election what, in
God's name, would they give us for
a permanent law, after election,
when they need no longer fear the
wrath of a betrayed people?
It now appears that the Republican
"experts" of the United States
Senate "doctored" the record in order
to defeat Senator La Follette in
his filibuster against the currency
bill. Now, the question is whether
he will return the compliment by
' doctoring" the Republican party
in Wisconsin.
