Hutchinson of Anderson, wbo| ls well known throughout tho county, entered the race last week for the legislature. Mr. Hutchison has ser ved his county many years as Mag istrate and made a fair and impartial officer. He waa in Belton a few dava Iago and stated that bia frienda Were' j responsible for him being in tho race and if elected would do all in his power to be ot permanent service td bis county while a member ot the lower' bottsav . His card appears elsewhere tn thia 1MM of the Jour* nal. Vote for John A. I For Unit A man without any political record except that he served the town as mayor for r?verai terms, but what is better, he ls a successful business man, and haa made a success In his own affairs and will represent the Third District and work for the best interests of the people. Vote for him because he ls a man that made his own way, worked on the farm, because he had to, paid lila own way through college, went into business, and the people of the town realizing that he would do to trust, helped him to organize a bank und ho Anderson County* Kavorlte Son for Congress JNO. A. MOUTON , made a success of it. Having made a success of every undertaking, don't you believe he will make you a good representative? Coming from the people and having to make his own way and not born with a silver spoon in his mouth, don't you believe him more capable of .realizing the hardships and struggles of the great majority, of the people. If you do voto for him everylndico tlon ls that he - iii be in th? second race, and if he is he will bo elected. Help put him there by your vote. THE t'OMi It ESN ION ? L RACE Prom the best Information we can get as to the Congressional race in this district lt appears that John A. Horton will be in the second race, and Just af this time lt is hot certain who the other man will be. Aiken or Dominick. Mr. Horton made a most favorable Impression at each of the campaign meetings and many people were heard to remark "that he ls a good clean man that could be trust ed." John Horton has no political re cord to speak of and that IB consider ably In bis favor, but he. has a most remarkable record In his business ca reer having made a success in every undertaking and the people of the Third dlstrct have deeded that they will quit voting for people with "po litical records," as they have never received any special benefits from these records. A. great many people are going to vote for John Horton be cause he liss been a BUCCOBB in con ducting his own business and they believe that it is the best indication that, he will attend to the people's bualness more efficiently than the poli tician. Many people in the Third district, ?nd especially in Abbeville, his home county, do not understand why Mr. Aiken could vote against President Wilson on tho repeal of tho free Pan ama tolls act. They say that if Pres ident , Wi son and Secretary Bryan could see they were wrong and chan ged their mind; why couldn't Mr. Aik en? Some do not under* land either why Mr. Aiken should nave voted against the "Pure Food Bill" which waa before congress for several ses sions and which was bitterly fought by the manufacturers. | Mr. Aiken was one of the 17 democrats to vote against the bill, and ho gives as his reason that there was' an objection able ciuase in the bill. If so, why didn't he propose Sn amendment , knocking out the objectionable clause. Another thing many people do no un derstand ls why Mr. Aiken is shown aa being 'present" 14 times When questions were being voted upon in stead bf casting his vote either for or against. Being "present" and not voting ls the same aa yoting for a bill. Every where yon go you' And .a sen timent for a change as Mr.. Aiken has been in congress 12 years nhd his .father was there IO years ead many think it an opportune t|rr? to mako.a change, and many thar? tere who are turning to Mr. Horton because he knows what lt ts.to >arn a living by the "Sweat of his brow," and. having made his own way fromVdsls aground up, educating himself and., knowe .nade a success of his own affaire tho people will take delight in honoria Ulm by making him Uiefc.rj?rjfts?nta forton ed States* Congress tive. Remember, Mr. Horton has no poll tical organization and caunot send out letters under a frank, and has no? friends to appoint to office that are working for him on the side. Stick | to John Horton if you want a friend that will do "to tie to/' "Birds of II Feather Flock Together." I was very much interested lu the congressional campaign and espe cially tho meeting at Anderson. It was really amusing to ace how our present congressman^ Hon. Wyatt Aiken, twisted and squirmed under the attacks of lila opponents. Ills ex planations were really ridiculous and tho more Mr. Aiken explained the more untenable his position seemed. Mr. Aiken said the "Steamship Trust? told bim, that I? Its represen tatives, that they rea'ly wanted >~he '*Free Tolls** done away with. We all know lt was a caso of tho Rabbit begging not to be tnrown Into the! briar patch-and yet Mr. Aiken had the audacity to hand 'hat uut to an Anderson county audience. Vin- ex planation did not explain though. Every true American Democrat koowa that free tolls through thc Panama Canal ls a "Ship-subsidy"-taking money out of thc people's pockets und putting lt into the coffers of the ship owners. And to our utter ?.urpr?so what do we find on pago three of the Daily Mail of August 7th. We find John L. McLaurln coming to 'ho res cue of Mr. Aiken. Mr. McLaurln 1B a political outcast of the democratic party of South Carolina and he owes his predicament to this same thing of voting against the people. After Mint memorable vote in thc United States senate thc people of South Carolina left "Curley Headed Johnnie" at home the first opportunity. Mr. Mc I Laurln has "Skinned the Cat ' aud "Looped the* Loop" time and again to get back into the good graces of the True Democrats of South Carolina but all to no avail. And the latest re pudiation of Mr. McLaurln was by the "BleaBites." He cut a double-back-ac tion summersault and landed in the Blca8e camp. But after they looked him over they decided they did not need him. And now MY. Aiken's friends are trying to justify his acts by this same "C u "ley-beaded John, nie." Mr. Aiken did not explain that vote of his against the "Pure Food and Drugs Act" to the satisfaction of the voters of Anderson and the Third District. If you want the record in the matter aBk Mr. Aiken to Bend you copy of the Congressional Record of June 23d, 1906. Look on page 9356 and ? you will find Mr. Aiken along with 16 others voting against this, law, and 'he only member or the South Carolina delegation so voting. ?42 voted for the measure. VOTER. Abbeville county, a part of the third congressional district* has had the congressman for 20 years. What right or claim does Mr. Aiken put up to the Anderson county voters for a continuance of their support? Why go into another county for your con gressman when we have a man of ability-one if elected will work in season and out of season for the whole district. A man who was born and - raised in Anderson county. A man who helps you pay the taxes of your own county. A man who has your county at heart. A man who at all timos will be on the Job. Why: toll John A . Horton, your ? home man, to stand aside till Mr.* Aiken has server ten more years in con gress Did you treat your county man right to vote for the Abbeville man It is customary in other coun ties to take care of the home man. first. Why, Mv. Aiken himself, deep down in h's heart kilowa that John. Horton deserves the support " of his home people, but for the love of the Balary attached to the offlco, be will still continue to try and per suade you to leave your home man at home and continue to send him (Mr. Aiken) to congress indefinitely. No one knows better than Mr. Aiken that he has held th 1B . honor long enough. Mr. Dominick will come ' to you Anderson voters and insist that you aak Mr. Horton to stand asido this time and give him your vote! This will not be treating your' home man1 with the proper' respect that ls Just ly due him. Mr. Voter, ot' And?rsofi county: Vote for Mr. Horton, your, home man In the first primary, and If you do this he - win -not- only be In the second race, but ,Ive will be your next congressman. 'Think, it over. Will you dov it? Anderson county will poll nearly.;.8,000- votea on the 25th of August and a good ma jority of this vote should appear in the Horton column. Stand to your home man like men. ,-Ady. . ./ MB. WBIGHT BNTEB8 BACE Relton Journal. J. H.
