AN ADDRESS T Kl ? W F Clayton Writes a Ti Tillman and Ellerbe to Was! To the Voters of the State of South I Cirollnaand Especially to Those] of the Sixth Congressional District: lb wns General Grant wo believe, who gave utterance to the expression 4'That the Democratic Party could be relied upon to do the wrong thing at the right time " This notonly referred to measures but to men, and he was in part correct. The ambition of our politicians caused much dlicensions and bickerings in our party and gave to the opposition ammunition to light us with. With the exception of Washington, the two Adamses, Harrison and 7'aylor, the Democrats elected all of their Presidents to the lima of Lincoln, and could havo remained in power but for the ambition or Stephen A Douglas* who endeavored to foist upon the party a platform antagonistic to Democratic faith. The consequence was that when the Democratic party met in Iialtimorc, after having failed to nominate at Charleston, S C , a split took place and two Democratic candidates entered the field. Th* consequence was that Lincoln was elected. That brought on war, nnd upon its war record, the Republican party has kept in power, not altogether that. This party allied itself with the trusts and corporations, and we havo as a result of their dominion, the unrest of the country and the high price of living. The result of iho war left the South prostrate and in poverty, while to the North all v/iiu roseate. Money obtained from (i ivernment contractu was plenty, and from that aroce the corporate and trust ii fiucnce which has kept the Republican party in power. A dawn has come. The blackness of a night of despair to the people of the South gives promise of a brighter day, if woof the South will do - .1 away with personal preferences nuu regain in Congross men of experience rather than send men with no experience. They may tell you on the stump of the short coinings of their predecessor, anri toll you of x what tbey will do Believe them ^not unless they prove their cause beyond a reasonable doubt. Cn-| less they can produce testimony' beyond themselves, Jet the man In I Cmigros3 star, for it takes several years for a Congressman to he of I any uge to his constituents Before! the war the South had the say in g jve.riner.t.ftl affairs. Why? Be cause she Iropt her Senators and Representatives in Congress as long as th?*y proved com potent, while the North made changes.

Now, J E Eilerbe is the Representative from the Sixth Congressional District. He has held that position for several terms, and has been advanced as only a member of experience can be to a pjsition on ' the committee of Rivers and Har- . bors. This make s him not only a . Representative from the Sixth Congressional Distriot, but from the 1 whole State. A new man going is could not expect to get on that im- , portant committee. Outside of Mr Ellerbe'a duties, well performed, as 1 to the State at largo, he, under the < most trying circumstances, has got- , . . i i t 1 len a |jumiy uuiiuiu^ jur x/?niLi^ Ion, Bonnettsvill? and Marion, and u silo for a buUdmg at Dillon. Could ' we expect anything more from our Representative in the face of the fact that South Carolina was the first, to precipitate the war and it ia j held against us? Certainly not. Then whom can we put in his place that could do more? Consider that voters. Ho has not only done that. < but has put rural delivery routes < all over the Sixth District Then j why remove him? Can any ono else \ do as well? He is there with the f experience of years. Can any ama- t lour, for such would be his sueees- t sor, do what he has done? Wo say t no. t Therefor?, we say to you, voters \ of South Carolina, and the Sixth \ Congressional District particular. ' return 13 in Tillman to the Senate i and J ill Ellerbe to the House Del i nob the idea that your candidate is f a county tnan and we should sup- \ p^rt birn influence you. This is a a fallacy and might load to incom- 4 potent officials. But by your vote ^ accept the best man for the place. i Wood row Wilson is going to be < your next President ami will want v a Congress of men of experience, J men who have served in Congress j ??k1 know the wantr of the county. | You could not get in the Sixth Dis- j ir iet a better man than your pros- i enb Representative. J fi Ellerbe, i and in the State a better man than your Senator, U R Tillman. ( I have no persona! feeling, but am j actuated by a desire for the good of < the people of South Carolina.
