I have stated these facts on -the stump, but have further said n that the adoption as a whole is t good and is giving satisfaction to :3 the teachers, that the best terms -were obtained, the lowest prices, r and that by bringing all schools to 1 the use of the same books (as has -not been (done before) the country 3 schools are nowv graded and sye a temized so that there will be less - w1aste and better results. t The p)resent adoption was made e in 1900, and is no0w in general use. r' It canniot be changed (except by -the legislature) until 1006, and 1 ought not to be changed to any 2 great extent thon.

ANSEL AS GOVERNOR. True to Every Trust--Especially Qualified for Governor--The Masses of Green. ville and the 8th Circuit will Support Him. Editor Greenvillo Nows: Whilo so many claims are boing published andl Circulated as to the dlualilificatiols and esteem iII which they are held by the people at home, in favor of the various can didates for governor in the coming primary election, I ask space in your paper to toll the peoplo of South Carolina (the people of Greonville county do not ne0d1 to bo told) the strong position in p11b lie confidenco that M. F. Ansel commands by rt"ason of his pure Private life, his long and unselfish pubc service, his tolerant but sincore and dotermined convic tions. and his well-known and con ceded ability. No man can stand higher in his own town, his own county, and over the Eighth cii cuit, whore ho is so well known ; they all have repeatedly honored him. Naturally some votes will be load oil' to follow new Idols, yet the ovo wheluing mass of the po00 plo of this county and circuit are oing to keep on voting for Ansol, because they have tried him, and ound him truo to overy trust. And well as lie has graced every )osition given hil, in church, in ounty and circuit, yet he seems -specially adapted for the office of governor. A mn) thoroughly fa niliar In sympathy with the peo )lo and their wants in all classes tud conditions, of broad and libor l ideas, of practical business sa acity, qualified to pronote our great agricultural, commercial and industrial future, and of irreproach ible character, is such a manl as we want to lead and guido our great state, and such a man to the very letter is Martin F. Ansel. Fellow-citizens, do you want such a man for governor of your state? If so vote for Ansol. You may point out your sons with pride to the man that sits at the helm, and say, "take him as your model"2 In the discharge of every duty of that high offion, he would reflect honor upon you and our whole peo pie. Every men who loves his state might re8t assured that the public honor, the publio credit, the public peace, and the public ad ministration of law wore safe in 'the hands of Martin F . Ansei. South Carolinians, we pecple of Greenville know him; wo have tried, and we are going to vote for him, and vouching for every word that we have said of him, we comn mend him to !you, confident that every vote for Ansel is a patriotic service that will redown to the good and glory of our state.
