Against Featherstone's !??,D04.?How
tlie Other Candidates
Ran, and Who Will be in the
Second Primary on Tuesday Week.
In the *ace for Governor, Cole L.
Blease, of Newberry, has maintained
a lead over his nearest opponent, C.
C. Featherstone, of Laurens. The
relative standing of the six candidates
for Governor has not been
changed since early Tuesday night.
Thos. G. McLeod hold third place,
John G. Richards fourth, F. H. Hyatt
fifth, and John T. Duncan sixth.
The total vote in the first primary J
will no doubt reach 105,400, some- i
what to the surprise of many who
expected a much lighter vote. The
rains of the Pee-Dee and Piedmont
apparently had little effect in keeping
the voters from the polls. Spartanburg
was the banner county, polling
over 8,000 votes. The voting was
11 ?A 1 ? ^ V? ^ AiAiintina w h D r O
llglliesi in nit; uuaoi, tuumico n ??v. v
the terrific rains of Monday had put
the roads in such condition as to detain
many from the polls.
In the race for Governor, Cole L.
Blease has 33,3 64, while C. C. Featherstone
has 2 9,96 4, a lead of 3,4 0 0,
the latter having more than a 4,00 0
lead over Thos. G. McLeod. The total
vote of the other three aspirants
amounts to about 16,000.
Cole L. Blease, for Governor, carried
the counties of Aiken, Anderson,
Barnwell, Berkeley, Calhoun, Cherokee,
Dorchester, Fairfield, Horry, j
Laurens, Lexington, Newberry, Pick- J
ens, Richland, Saluda, Union and
York.
if! n. Featherstone carried the
' counties of Abbeville, Colleton,
Greenville, Greenwood, Hamptou,
Lancaster, Marlon, Marlboro, Oconee,
Orangeburg and Spartanburg.
T. G. McLeod received a plurality
in the counties of Beaufort, Charleston,
Chester, Chesterfield, Clarendon,
Darlington, Dillon, Florence,
Georgetown, Lee, Sumter and Williamsburg.
For Lieutenant Governor, Charles
A. Smith, of Timmonsville, is elected,
receiving 58,906 votes to 44,001
for E. W. Duvall, a majority of nearly
15,000.
For Attorney General, J. Fraser
Lyon's vote is 72,585, while that of
B. B. Evans i& 27,574, Mr. Lyon being
easily re-elected. It appears that
both candidates were freely scratched.
Col. W. W. Moore, of Barnwell,
and Capt. J. M. Richardson, of Aiken,
will make the race again for Adjutant
General.
The most interesting contest in the 1
entire list is the neck and neck race
between Hampton and Scarborough '
to determine who shall make the race '
with James Cansler for railroad com- 1
missioner. About 138 votes seperate 1
the two, Hampton leading with 2 2,- 1
634 to Scarborough's 22,496. Can- ~
Bier's big lead is 40,896, being 18,323
over his nearest competitor.

(Advertisement)
Mayor ^lease's friends in Newberry,
as elsewhere throughout the
State, are delighted with the magnificent
vote which he received in the
first primary on Tuesday, and are
confidently expecting hiin to win by
a large majority in the second primary.
With about 95 per cent, of the
total vote of the State heard from,
he is several thousand ahead of Mr.
Featherstone, his nearest opponent,
and he and Mr. Featherstone will
make the second race.
The heavy vote received by Mr.
riianco nn ThorHhv was not confined
to any section, but was general
throughout the State. Starting out
with a handsome majority in his
home county of Newberry, and leading
in the surrounding counties of
Laurens, Saluda, Lexington, Union
and Fairfield, he received the flattering
endorsement of his fellow-citizens
of South Carolina without regard
to geographical lines or to vocations
in life.
Mayor Hlease has been consistent
in the positions which he has taken
in politics. He is today a local optionist
on the whiskey question and
we believe the great majority of the
people of South Carolina are today
in favor of local option?letting ?ne
present law alone?because we believe
they are tired of the liquor agitation,
and are convinced tha'" fHo
interests of temperance will best be
subserved by local option. Hut it
was not on the liquor question that
the people gave Mr. Blease the lead
in the first race. They recognized
his ability, and they want a good
economical, business adnunislration,
without extravagance 011 the o?i?
hand or penury 011 the other
With his lead in the first race,
Mr. Blease goes into the second race
with every prospect of his be.ug M.e
next governor of South Carolina, lie
has made a clean campaign and w!l.
continue to do so, and he will nake
1 good governor. He has been signally
honored by his home people
and has served thorn v. ith ability
and credit to himself and to them
in the numerous positions which ne
has filled. That he has the confidence
of the people among whom he
has speyjt his life is shown by his
election as mayor of the city last
fall, and by the vote which Newberry
county gave him on Tuesday. Newberry

PANIC ON TROLLEY.
Results in the Death of a Passenger
And Injury of Another.
One passenger dead, another in
the hospital with severe cuts and
bruises about the head as a result
of a panic among the passengers on
a car of the Raleigh, N. C., street
railway about midnight Thursday.
The controller on the front platform
flashed luridly and six negro 1
passengers dashed to the car platform,
jumping off as the car was *
running 20 miles an hour. As they
ran between the aisles they knocked
rlown and trampled the conductor, c
rii jumping from the car, Rachael
Bryant sustained concussion of the ?
train and died Friday morning; Mary
Bryant was severely cut about the
lead, but will recover. The flash of
he controller was harmless. F

Who Will Hun Over.
The State Democratic committee
met late Friday afternoon to canvass
the returns of the first Democratic
primary. The principal issue at
stake, to be settled at this meeting,
was whether G. McDullie Hampton
or O. C. Scarborough should make
the race for railroad commissioner
against James Cansler. The oflicial
count showed Col. Scarborough lead- '
ing his opponent by over 2,000 votes.
The relative standing of the other
candidates, and the results as announced
above, are very nearly correct.
A dispatch from Columbia says it
was learned Saturday afternoon that
there was a mistake of 11,000 votes
in the tabulation made by the State !
executive committee Friday nlg.ht,
by which McDuflio Hampton, son of
Gen. Wado Hampton, is in the race
for Railroad Commissioner with Jas.
Cansler, instead of O. C. Scarborough
being in the second race. The 1
mistake was In the Greenville vote. <

TURN THE RASCALS OUT
THAT 8 WHAT THE PEOPLE WILL
DO IN NOVEMBER.
According to tli? Predictions of the
New York World the Republican*
Will Re Honied.
If the predictions of the New York
World comes true the Republicans
will be routed horse, foot and dragoon
next November. Hero is what
the World predicts:
The size of the Democratic vt: .ory
that will be announced on the m >r )ing
of November 9 next will be staggering.
It will include an overwhelming
majority in the house of
representatives and a gain of niary
United States senators. Onlo, t*ie
president's own State, will be lost to
the Republicans. New York, the
State of the ex-president, will be
sweepingly Democratic. Majorities
will be so large that people will tire
of computing them.
<Not through Democratic virtues
and abilities but in spite of Democratic
blunders and weaknesses are
those tilings to come about; not because
there are more Democrats
than Republicans, but because there
are more American progressives than
standpatters; not as a rebuke to
this man or that man in particular,
but a condemnation of many men;
not as a rejection of one policy but /
as a repudiation of many policieiff~J|L
not as an evidence of momentary in- *v
dignation, but as voicing the demand
of a great and free people for light,
for truth, for economy, for pekoe!
What are these bitter Republican
quarrels but attempts in advance to
escape tlie judgment which all konw
is at hand? There is a mad rusn
for safety. Responsible men are posing
as irresponsibles. Old offenders
masquerado as innocents. Sacriilces
are offered up in the hope that the
popular wrath may be appeased.
There is talk even of a third term t
in the White House for the vocifei- Vu.
ous and lawness person under wlioi
Cannon and Aldrich and Payne and
Sherman and Dalzell got their strangle
grip on party and country.
In spite of all this there will be
no mistake about that which is to
take place in November. It is to be
more a Republican defeat than a
Democratic victory; more a popular
uprising against plutocracy and privilege
than a party revival; moree a
matured verdic t. on Rooseveltism ^
than upon Republicanism; more a re-^y
buko of Taft as proxy than of Taft
as president; more an expression of
hope in Democracy than of faith in
Democracy.
The election of Dr. Odom and Mr.
Connor to the House of Representatives
by the handsome vote they received
in the first primary over so
many competitors is a complement
to those gentlemen. We salute them.
Found l>end in Hotel.
At New York Samuel J. Hlrsch,
a manufacturer of Chicago, was
found dead in bed with his throat
cut in Hotel Knickerbocker Thursday
evening. A bloody razor lay
near the dead man. Dr. Hill the
Hotel physician thinks the man committed
suicide. Hirsch was about
35 years old.
