An Issue before tho people of thin
.Stat? ls that o? safe guarding the prl- !
mary elections. The Costitution of
I8f)"i restricted the suffrage io ?is tn
eliminate, ns far as practicable, Ibu
negro vote; questions betwe< .1 the

which every white mun, who was not 1

iitory provisions wa? lo vole, t iller
thean conditions, differences umong
the whiter, wert* settled, but. h ?in? a
cort of family affair, no rigid ru lea
were made or practiced; the rules
RICHARD IRV
governing primary elections, loose as
they were, were often disregarded,'|'
until lt became tho custom to let
thom go in almost any wny.
When differences arose, and feeling
**an high, and distrust of each other
erupt In, dissatisfaction with prevail
ing motliods...waa manifested, and
charges and. counter-charges pf irre
gularities and illegal voting wre
made. White mens differences must
be aetUedi fan>y. Party feeling and
prejudice often cauBOd men to disre
gard exact Justice and fairness. Un
der our present party rule, the party
abundant opportunity exista for re

such laws, aa will promote ownership
of hoines in town, and a home am!
small farms Ir. tho country. . 1. shall
advocate a land registration bill and
encouragement to rural credits,
warehousing of cotton,, better ma-l.ct
Ink of crops, accurate grading p? cot

adulteration of fertilisers. which will
protect the farmer and honest fur
ttllrer manufacturer; ?md by n.e. Viii?
Ufe on the farms more profU?bla, and
more pleasant and comfortable, many
of our problema will be solved in a
safe and sane manner. Solf protec

lems, which confront us reunir? ut
tentlon to these matters.
I shall- enlarge on thone subjects
later.
Ici II amy wita Hi'iicifnc v in nore rn?
mente
I wish to stress thc impartation of
the application of .toed luiincsa
methods of the administration of ail
of the affairs.of our .State. A bsljai?
In efficiency with economy. The gov
ernor can. by close study and atten
tion to the affaira of the various In
stitutions of the State, insure economy
and greater effectiveness with an ever
widening development, and, If elected,
I will give to my State o clean, pro
gressive business administration,
ralurut Ion.
I favor education at public ex
pense. South Carolina stands nearly
I mt tom of the Hst in th.-? uer contaRO
of llllteracy."; I shall never be sp.i?s
lled until this per ccnta?c of Illiteracy
ia reduced. ,tye have mado great
progrcBB in pur educational system,
more and mojo money is being Rpent
for the cause of education. As a par
ent cannot spend his money tetter
than by educating bia child. SQ the
State cannot spend Its money better
than by educating the citizen. I fa
vor tho maintenance and support of In
stitutions of higher loaming, and pro
visions for their growth nad develop
ment to meet growing needs, hut 1 <-m
pbanlse the needs of the public schools.
A liberal appropriation sho"!'! b> mad 1
by the Stato of a fund to supplement
the funds for the school raised lo
cally-vims to endorse and to encour
age thc spirit of s?lf help.
An educated citizenship ls tho real
Justifient lon for public education. Wo
must make parents realize th-> ne
cessity for education; that sentiment '
. must bo so strong ah to Torce parents !
to ?end their children to t..- hool, '
When a community reaches that point,

REMARKABLE RISE

John L. Pruitt a Great Farmer--j
Intelligencer Man's Ride
Through Country
(Ry W. W. Smoak)
The person who would not enjoy an
automobile ride over portions of An
derson county, now Indeed "flt for
atratpgems." Tho fast budding, and
blossoming of trees in the woods, thc'
song*; of birds, the air of bus
tling activity on every well kept farm,
with Ibo thought of the revest; to fol
low tho planting, the genial, wholc
souldo hospitality and Interest or ev
eryone you meet, are- indeed causea
for keenest reasons ior: /wishing al
most-to become veritable knights of
tho toad. . -
Such w?r.a th*> feelings of this Intel
ligencer'man when he traversed, th* J
splendid Country between Anderson
apd .JkjJaipric LowpdoBville on, Tuesday
Id company with foreman Hoper of
'l be intelligencer's Job printing de
partment, driven by young "Barney
OldsO?ld" m the oldest, speediest and
inest reliable Ford car ever brought
to Anderson county-a car which-Jjs
aa well known In Anderson county as
"Uncle Josh" Ashley, and that ls say
ing a lot.
The first stop waa made at Starr,
where a closely contested game ot
checkers was in progress, being play
ed on a rather unique home-made
checker board, with "pop" bottle
f toppers as. ' men"r^one) . player us
ing his inverted.
All was calm and- sarene at Starr, '
which is a pretty little village of.
some .100 population, twelve miles
from Anderson, on the C. & W. C.
railroad. An ideal- country town
whose Inhabitants are at peace with
everybody and with tho, whole world.
t.erhapa it is not generally known
that Starr has one of the State's
largest farmer, J, U Pruitt, who pro
duced on, his farm last y ear 2,200 pales
of cotton and whose plans for this
year, are to increase ?be yield, he hav
ing purchased this spring, forty-eight
mules, and. snot her farm for f30,000.
Readers of romance would find a his
tory of the rute pr M.T. Pruitt a most
interesting volume.," Only two decades
ago he plowed his one-horse farm him
self. His is but an evidence, pt the
great possibilities in Anderson coun
ty. There are other citizens of thia
community, eaunlly deserving pf* spec
ial mention, but ns this la only a run
ning ramble, they will IIPCI. for a
futt\re visit.
Leaving Starr, our next stop,was at
Iva. Everybody knows of Iva, and
Sara McAdams, who boa been R F. D.
carrier there for the past twclvo
M?ts.'"'. The postmaster, l^cnx Recd,
says that he cannot do anything with

As soon as the weather conditions permit, ev

with which to do this. Planters upon which he
can absolutely rely. There is but one Machine of
this kind that has never failed in every case to op

that one being the "COLE"
Our stock of these Planters is limited. We urge

Hair that loses UK color o- lustre
or when lt fades, .turns gray, dull
and lifeless, ls caused liv a lack ot
sulphur in thc hair. Our rrandmotli
er? made up a mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to keep her "loelia dark
and beautiful, and thousands ot wom
en, and men who value that even col- .
or, that beautiful dark shade ff hair
which I?; so attractive, use only this
old-time rocipe^
Nowadays we.get this famous mix
turo by asking at nay drug store for
a 60 cent bottle of Wyeth's sage and
Sulphur flair Remedy." which dark
ens the hair so naturally and evenly,
that nobody can posibly tell that lt
has Hon aplled. Resides, it takes off
dandruff, stops scalp Itching and fall
ing bair. You just darken a spoage
or soft brush with it and draw it
through you? hair, taking one small
strand at a time. Ry morning the
bray, bair baa disappeared; but what
delights thc ladles with Wyeth's Sago
and Sulphur la that, besides bcnutl
fuly darkening the hair after a few
gloss and lustre and gives it an ap
applicatlons, lt also brings back tba
pearance of abundance. Evans' Phar
