It has been brought to my attc.n

read or write. I wish to state fc
the benefit of my friends that thi
statement is absolutely ungroundei
and a lie on the face of it, this \vs
trmly brought out by my opponei
and his followers to bring about in
<defeat, nothing else. It has been n
?lesire to run this campaign on

Smith-Blease Alliance
Formed In Desperation

r
POLITICS MAKES STRANGE BED-FELLOWS
/ I
A Direct Charge By George Warren and an Expose of
Smith Tactics the People of South Carolina Should Know.
I charge a direct collusion between former Governor Cole L. Blease and Senator E. I)?
Smith to defeat me for the United State*-. Spnntp
This alliance, made in utter desperation, was effected and put into operation as an eleventh
hour effort overcome the sentiment which had been created during the campaign in my
favor.
This campaign I was determined to make, and did make, without appeal to factionalism or
factional prejudices. To demonstrate this fact, thousands of voters of both the so-called
factions gave support to my candidacy.
On August ISth, and signed by former Governor Blease, with his personal signature of
"Cole," letters were prepared, pledging Mr. Blease's support to Senator Smith for re-election,
and mailed out during subsequent da; s to reach the personal friends of the former governor
as an eleventh-hour appeal to factionalism.
This letter was circulated by hand as well as by through tlfe mails, and u?cd at the polls
. by workers for Smith.
Acknowledging receipt of a letter from Mr. Mease. dated August (>th, Senator Smith, a few
days later expressed in a communication to Mr. Blease his appreciation <>?' the permission
to use Blease letter.

in*- Liim* ui ir.t iuuiung out o1 hip nunarecis oi letters, on 1 ho verge of (he election,
1 lie reputed campaign manager of Senator Smith, District attorney Fnncis H. Weston, a <
long and bitter enemy of Mr. B'ease, whom the latter has repeatedly denounced, was a visi*
tor to the office of Mr. Blease.
The sequence of events leading up to the actual mailing out of the Blease letter reed, in
my opinion, no further explanation. #
Another method used in tne desperate attempt to elect Senator Smith was the circulation
around th<? polls of reporis that I was a Bleasite, thes^ being circulated among
strong ar.ti-Blease men, and that I wns running on a "wet' platform, financed by the liquor
interests. This I charge, was a deliberate and premediated distortion of facts.
I tun in the second race. The fight is on. My fists are doubled. I am in the fight. And

WHY THIS APPEAL TO FACTIONALISM EXCEPT
1U iAVL ofcJN A1 UK SMITH FROM DEFEAT
I
HERE IS SOME MORE?HOW IT WAS WORKED:
(LETTERS, TELEGRAMS AND AFFIDAVITS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED FROM EVERY
SECTION OF THE STATE SHOWING THAT TACTICS SIMILAR TO THOSE MENTIONED
IN THE FOLLOWING LETTER WERE EMPLOYED BY SUPPORTERS OF SMITH) . ]
Mr. George Warren, Olar, S. C., September 1, 1920.
Columbia, S. C., j
Dear George:
Numerous campaign lies were circulated on you all over Chis part of the state at the last t
minute, and it looks like this was intentional, so you could not answer. .One was that you
were against prohibition, but it strikes me that the one and best plan, and the most damaging
in its effect, was planned and frained up by Blease, and Smith, or their friends for Blease
wrote to every friend he had in this part of the state, and I imagine he did the same thing
all over the state, saying that he did not think a new senator could do any thing for the
I people, and to vote for Smith. This was signed, "Yours in Love, Cole." Then the day of election
couriers were out all over the county to say that you were a Bleasite, so you can clear|
ly see that the plan was to get the Kfeasites, though Blease influenced direct by letter to
vote for Smith, and then circulated the report at the last minute,, without a chance for you
1 to answer, that you were a Bleasite and that those who hated Blease would vote against you
i . ? . . i i i i ? r? 'ir -?-?i a ti . . _ _ . _ *
and tor smitn, tnereoy giving amitn isiease votes as wen as anti-tsiease votes. Now if you
want them I can give you more thair one letter that was sent to people at Olar, and also to
other rwrt-s of the county. Yours truly, )
(Signed) C. F. RIZER.

Honorable Cole L. Blease, Columbia, S. C., August 9, 1920.
Columbia, S. C.,
Dear Sir.
Upon my return from Lynchburg I found your letter of August 6. I have read it 1
very carefully and fully appreciate the motive that prompted it. I also appreciate your
kind permission to use it. I thank you very much for your expression as to my candidacy.
