Wednesday, August 13, 1902 The candidates for United I S.nintn will mionlc linn* next Tuesday, the 19th Those who are so fortunate as to he present on that occasion will hear some speeches of a very high order. They are an able lot of men and their campaign has been conducted on a high plane. All voters should hear them. The Yorkville Enquirer made the following reference to Mr. J. T. fiantt and his candidacy for Secretary of State : Mr J. T. Gantt who, as as si?tnnt, has virtually been secretary of state during the past four years, seeks election to this important office. As to the qualifications or claims of the other candidates, The Enquirer knows little; but it is a fact that the people of the state are under much obligation to Mr. Gantt for much valuable in for mation about the office that they have gotten through the newspapers duiing die past four years. Mr. Gantt has done a great deal of work that he was not required to do, and made common with the general public, much important information that was previously held principally by the lawyers. If he should be elected and prove as efficient in the position of principal as he has been in the position of first assistant, the people will have no cause to complain. JIM TILLMAN'S TACTICS. Col. Jim Tillman is going around through the State posing as a martyr of the newspapers, because the newspapers are en deavoring to inform the people as to what manner of man he is, how unreliable and how devoid of the better qualities that should characterize a man who asks the people of South Carolina for their votes to place him at the head of the State government. He does not undertake to answer any of the charges made against him. He is shrewd enough to adopt the martyr role in order, as he thinks, to create sympathy and arouse prejudice. He knows he is guilty of the charges made and that it would be folly for him to undertake to disprove them. He litis been called upon time and time again to produce proof that what is being charged against him is false, but no proof is produced If lie gets a half respectable vote in Lancas ter county we will be woefully surprised. There tire four good and honorable men that our people can voie for for governor instead of Jim Tillman, and * K -11 .1 ~ : 4. rr * l iin-v >vux uu 11. ii mere is a newspaper in this entire State which is advocating the elec tion of Jim Tillman to the office of governor, we have wist not of it.
