ISLANDERS ARE
FOND OF MOVIES
South Sea Natives Will Pawn
Last Possessions to Sea A
I Picture Show
London, August 15.?Moving .picture
shows are. demoralising the South Sea
natives, breaking up their old peaceful
customs and Inciting them to crime,
ays a returned traveler from tbat
part of the world. .
Although the. average Islander is
lasy, good natured and. peace loving,
be is not far removed from the day
of savagery. Of an excitable and
emotional nature, he Is carried away
by dramatic films exhibited by
promoters. An Islander will pawn bis
last possession, says the traveler, to
see a picture show.
A recent case occurred In the Se
rn oan Islands where three natives,
one a former policeman, stole, revol
vers and started out to Imitate a hold
up scene. They set upon a European
plantation manager and his assistant
and ahot'both, dead for re* It ting. The
?murders wer* folowed by battles with
the native ? w<th the result that two
of the band were killed in action and
the third was captured and- later
hanged.

J. A. Hunter urged that the voters

He favored anything that would re

school facilities.

Hpeer.h wtjh dif?culty.

atorial race, saying that he had al
ways supported the governor.
Frank A. Shoal y advocated better

tion of the present freight rate.

J. W. Wharton favored an inter
changeable mileage book. He said
that when, a state senator he had
voted for a 2 cent rate on ell long
lino railroads. He. excoriated the

Mr. Smith maintained that the 11
lawlessness of which his opponent::

toward the liquor question. He then 1
outlined his position on the question

Richard I. Manning announced lie
liad received word from the low
noun try that If he was equally well
supported in the Piedmont section us
In the other pa,-t of the State that he
would be elected governor. He told
uf bis life as a farmer.
Mr. Manning said in part:
My Fellow citizens, what is the use
>f discussing laws that ought to be
m act cd. There are laws Unit should
>e enacted but aro the law:; now on
he statute books enforced?
The senatorial campaign has over
shadowed the state campaign. I can
not overstate or exaggerate the inj
uortaiice of the state campaign. It
Is Important who is to he our senate."
In Washington?though he has but
Dtie vote in congress while a governor
lias, to a large extent, the destiny o
the State In his hands.
I am opposed to factionalism. I
want peace restored to our peuple.
Hut this race for governor has nar
rowed down to the question whethet
we are to continue the policies of the
^resent administration, with all its
lawlessness or whether we are to put
in end to the condition which is a
llsgrace to the Stute. This is the is
sue and it is more Important than all
[he platforms of the candidates for
governor.
I have been called the apostle ol
hate in South Carolina for no other
reason than that I have tried to point
out the true situation and apply the
remedy. In pointing out the condi
tions of things I have done no more
than a physician in diagnosing a case
?that is, to seek the cause before
living the medicine.
There are those tn South Carolina
it opposite political faith than I whe
believed that the election of certain
men to pfftce In this State would ben^
sftt conditions. There are thousands'
upon thousands of them In their hon
3st conviction that they were doing
the right thing in casting their ballots
Tor the men of their choice.
I ask those men now who havi
stood by the administration whether
their hopes have been realized. Have
we a better condition than before?
I do not come here to abuse any
man. My sole urpose is to point out
lust where South Carolina finds her
self at this time and help you to ap
ply the remedy. Undoubtedly, as you
ill know, there has been reckless
ibuse of the pardoing power. What i'
the meaning of 900 negroes pardoned
nnd paroled and 300 whites? A spirit
>f lawlessness, hitherto unknown In
the state prevails at this time. Some
thing must be done to bring an end
to this condition and what shall It be
[r. the question.
There Is only one solution and that
is to elect a man as Governor who will
snforce the laws without fear or favor
rod who will use the pardoning pow
iT with care and discretion?one who
will be fair and just to all. We need
At fh?s time a man who will forget
the differences of the past and will
conduct the office of governor for all
the people and not for his friends on
ly. I appeal to you to lay aside all
the bitterness of the past few years,
regardless of last political affiliations
vote for the man who will do every
thing in his power to bring the people
f the State together.
Again I appeal to ybu to elect a
governor who will enforce the laws,
rhen w 1th a reunited People, - this
State can pass legislation of . a con
structive nature with especial refer
ence to her educational' system.
Standing here as an apostle of unity
1 ask all good South Carolinians to
vote for one who will give due atten
tion to their best interests of our
State.
"Are the Inwa on our hooks an for
ced?' asked Mr. Manning in perora
tion to his attack on the issue of
Blesselsm, which he says Is a more
Important' question than the platformr
af all other candidates put together.
He proceeded with'his excoriation Of
the governor's pardon record with dlf*
acuity but as be closed was applauded

John T. Duncan corroborated the
statement of Mr. Richards in regard
to the Spartanburg meeting, adding
that he had heard one man there say
that 'he (Mr. Richards) had voted for
Jones; yet another said he had voted
tor Blease and one said" you know
damned well If he had voted for Bleast
he would be glad to tell you so."
Pal of the Governor
Charles Carroll Slmms, after re
ferring to the antl-Blease elimina
tion schemes, again took John G.
Richards to task for his recent con
veston to Bleaserlsm. He then to\d
of his own long'friendship-for the
governor. He said that the "ologar

and. not the governor and yet had
many attacks by newspapers and the
Blease leaders direc*~d at him, .

Mr. R. I Manning said, in part::
My fellow citizens, what Is the use
of discussing laws that ought to be
enacted. There are laws that should
be. enactea but are the laws on the
statute books enforced?
The senatorial campaign has over
shadowed the state campaign. I can
not overstate or exaggerate the im
portance of the stats campaign. It is
important who is to be our senator
In Washington?though he has but
one vote in congress while a governor
has, to a largo extent, the destiny of
the .plate In his hands.
I am opposed to factionalism..'. I
want peace restored to our people.
Rut this -race for governor has nar
rowed down to the question/.whether
we are to coniinue.the. policies or the
present administration, with all jta
lawlessness or whether we are to put
an end to a condition which te* a dis
grace to the 5t?te. This is the issue,
and it is more Important than ail the
platforms of 611 this candidates for
governor,
? have been called the apostle of
hate In South Carolina for no other
reaspn than that l have tried to. point
out the tr?e situation and apply the
remedy. In rvointrnt? nut ifho condi

of the pardoning power. What is the
meaning.of 900 negroes pardoned ana
paroled and over 300 whites? A spir
it of lawlessness hitherto' unknown in
the state prevails at this time. Some
thing must bo done to bring an end to
this conditon and what shall it be is
the iu<3Btion.
Tncre is only one solution and that
is to elect a man as governor who
will enforce the laws without fear 01
'favor and who will use the pardoning
power with care and discretion?ono
who will be fair and just to all. W-:
j need at this time a man' who will for
get the differences of the past and
will conduct the office of governor
for1 all and not for his only. I appeal
to you to lay aside all the bitterness
of the past few years and,, regardless
of past political affiliations, vote for
the man who will do everything in his
power .to bring tho people of thU
Btate state together.
I Again I appeal to you to elect a
governor who will enforce the laws.
Then with "a reunited people, this
state can pass legislation of a con
structive nature with especial refer
I ence to her educational system.
Standing here as an apostle of unity
} I ask all good South, Caroll- ians to
I vot? for the upbuilding of their state
by placing In office one who will give
I due attention to the best Interests or

JUST CRIPPLE AROUND.
Some people just. cripple. around
. most of the days of thter life, worth
about half what they might be to
; themselves and their families, with
'all energy gone and only duty dragging
them about their dally tasks. ' They
' don't know what is the matter, and
treat first one symptom and then ah
lother, without much result. . Th? real
j trouble is that' the blood Is-not rich
I enough to;supply the.demands of the
I system. This lack of the necessary
elements may manifest Itself in ner
! vousness in Indigestion in rheumatism,
in emaciation in that "all gone" feel
ing. - Juoi give yourseii a cnance by
making your blood all right and see
\ how quick Nature will give you, poise
and energy. Many of your neighbors
' have redeemed lives almost, ship
'wrecked by th? faithful use of Mrs. Joe
Person's Remedy which Is a great
I ?liminant and tonic.;It clears away
the impurities and than builds up Che
'System. - That was. the case with Mr.
i John FV Pettigrew of L,>;eburg, N. C"
who says: "Several years ago I was
j suffering from indigestion. For three
1 months I bad to live on milk and bread
a?d. I was JuBt.as weak and nervous a*
I could be. Bight bottles of Mrs. Joe
Person's Remedy cured me, sifter the
doctor's medicine failed."
I .; Tod can * buy. this great remedy of
most druggists. If yours doesn't have
~it for you send a dollar to the Remedy.
