Sapp, Stoney, Daniel and Blease ^
May Be in Senate Race iii 1930
It looks as if there will be a strong
lire-up of aspirants in the race next
year for the seat in the United States
Senate now held by Senator Cole L.
Blease, sny 8 the Greenville News.
Claude N. Sapp, prominent Colum
bia attorney ard former State legis
lator, may be a candidate.
Mayor Thomas P. Stoney, of Char
leston, one of the younger and more
picturesque figures in the South Caro
lina political firmamert, very likely
will be a candidate.
Dr. D. W. Daniel, the silver-tongued
orator of Clemson, whom many regard
a* the State’s most finished platform-
i*t, will in all probability offer for the
office.
Serator Cole L. Blease, whose name
has been identified with virtually ev
ery spectacular and important State
wide campaign in two d^tedes, will
offer for reelection, his friends and
admirers in this section vehemently
araert.
Some other name* have been ad
vanced by frienda in these days ante
dating the campaign by juat about a
year. While bonreta other than those
of the four mentioned above may be
to*aed into the rodeo next summer,
be*t available information now indi
cate* that these four will nir..
Mr. Sapp, who is a former chair
man of the Way* and Means Commit
tee of the House of Representatives,
has for a decade been a prominent fig
ure in politics ip the certral part of
the State, at least. He i* also well
known beyond hi* own county of Rilll-
land, hi* business as an- attorney hav
ing called him into sundry portions of
South Carolina .
He would not discus* the coming
campaign for publication last night.
However, some friends of his in
Greenville assert positively that he
will run next summer. ‘‘And he will
run, too,” they say.
Mayor Stoney last night wired The
News as follows, in reply to a query
regarding association of his name with
the list of probable candidates: “Ap
preciate interest of my friends. Have
been go busy with the affairs of office
I hold that have r.ot had time to give
any thought to ar.y future race.”
Mr. Stoney was a visitor in Green
ville some weeks ago as head of a
Charleston acquaintance tour. He is a
speaker of marked ability and attract
ed wide-spread attention by his sen
sational campaign with former Mayor
John P. Grace, of Charleston, for the
mayoralty some years ago. He is also
a former solicitor. /
That Dr. Daniel will offer for the
senatorial toga is taken as certain.
A rnouncement of his candidgcy was
made by friends some month* ago.
However, the doctor afterwards said
that this was “unauthorrted” at the
time, or something to that effect. The
educator-orator has spoken at school
closings, picnics, and other meetings
all over South Csrolira and His very
name is a sort of synonym for elo
quence and forensic wit
Senator Blease has not definitely
spoken kig/plans for next year, to far
as is known here, but his friends in
Greenville County will tell you that
“certe-nly Colie will run.” They de
clare that beyond all reasorable doubt
their hero of mqny a campaign will
he in the Itne-op when the long her
alded campaign get* going ir the sum
mer of 1930.
Association of the nsmes of these
four men with plans for the race has.
brought out a quickened interest here
in the forthcomirg event. All four
are masters at the art of speaking, all
are_ colorful personalities, and the
brethren in this commonwealth should
have something other than crop ard
business conditions to discuss next
year if the quartet runs.
SULTAN OF SULU
NOW AIR MINDED
Potentate Has Plane Ride and
Enjoys It.
Washington.—The sultan of Sulu,
one/of the few Filipino potentates still
ruling under the protection of the
States, has become ulr minded.
According to advices reaching the
War department, the sultan was taken
on his first airplane ride recently In
an army machine and liked it.
A few years ago tribesmen in the
Philippines were overcome with fear
when the “giant birds” of the army
spared overhead. They could Hot un
derstand the roaring-machines driven
by army airmen on cross-country
flights across the Island and often the
planes spread fear and consternation.
Then the sultan of Sulu visited Ma
nila. He was invited for a short flight.
Capt. Donald Wilson piloted the sul
tan 5,000 feet above the city.
The potentate’s retinue waited with
quaking hearts until the sultan landed
safely and grinning over his novel ex
perience. In short excited sentences
he explained the sensations of flying
to his aides. They Immediately be-
•leged the army flyers to be taken up.
The pilots obligingly consented and
others in the sultan’s staff learned
of the joys of soaring through bound
less spaces far above the earth. News
of their flights spread and the presl-
dente of Bontoc expressed the desire
for a short hop. Other members of
the Doo-ChristlsD tribes of the Philip
pine archipelago were flown and the
news spread still further until the
army sir corps station In the Islands
was flooded with requests for flights
Hi the “giant hints."
Wants Burglars to
Pay Rent for Tools
Butte, Mont.—Tired of having
his place robbed of chisels and
hammers, Al McLeod, Butte
blacksmith, posted a prominent
sign, “Burglar Tools for Kent,”
In his shop, hoping that prospec
tive burglars will be thoughtful*
enough to pay him a small fee
for the use of his tools In the
future.
McLeod’s shop has been brok
en Into numerous times. Ham
mers and cold chisels were the
only articles taken. On one occa
sion the thieves returned the
stolen articles the night after
they gained access to his shop,
but other prospective burglars
were not so thoughtful.
The “Burglar Tools for Rent”
sign will be illuminated at
night. —

Rebels’ Tractor-Tanks
Are Returned to Farms
Mexico City.—Farm tractors in Mex
ico led ns hectic a life during the re
cent military rebellion as some of the
participants themselves.
Among the “spoils of war” cap
tured by the federal* after the rebel
retreat In Chihuahua were several
farm tractors which had been com
mandeered from private ranches, ar
mored by rebel blacksmiths and turned
Into war tanks.
The Mexicans dubbed them “Co-
ch In It as” (little pigs) when they wad
dled up to the firing line for the first I

Electric Lights Installed
Eskimo in Arctic.
by
Edmonton, Alta.—No longer will the
midnight sun reign supreme In the
far reaches of the Arctic circle, ac
cording to word reaching here from
officers of the Canadian Royal Mount
ed police whose duty It Is to patrol
that territory.
The story told Illustrates the ad
vance of modernism. The Icy igloo as
sociated with the Eskimo has gone.
The kayak is still used- for traveli
on the water for short distances but
gasoline motors and sturdier boat
are also used. The marriage customs
remain practically the same, but/the
exchange of \jlves Is rapidly passing
Into the Umbo of forgotten things.
More than all this, however, Is the
forsaking of the old seaLci! lamp for
electricity.
According to the Mountles, Pavoo
Poliak, Eskimo, whose home is up near
Ajcalvik, within th^ Arctic circle, came
out as far as ^mission post. There
he saw a lighting plant similar to
those used on farms, In operation. He
Inquired the price. With the proceeds
of his trapping and fishing he found
he had sufficient cash to purchase one
and/did.
.oading It on sleighs he started
back to his shack home, miles away.
All the way he thought of the superior
position the possession of such magic
would give him, and the way seem
short. Arriving at bis home he/In
stalled the plant according to direc
tions and Issued invitations to a bouse
warming.
Eskimos from miles around came
and when they were assembled Bavoo
turned a switch. Shouts of surprise
resounded as The bulbs burst Into
light. The guests were astounded.
Pavoo showed them how the
switches worked and then, one after
the other, the visitors turned lights off
and on. This .lasted for hours until
Pavoo had fed them all and sent them
home. '
Madrid Women Are
Not Old-Fashioned
Madrid.—The women of “old Mad

these days. Twenty-yeor-old Senorita
Pilar Croaga. pretty student at the
school of engineers In the capital, re
cently drove the Madrld-GIJon express
train over 350 miles of winding and
dangerous road.
