The purpose of our Democratic primary is to give the people an opportunity to judge for themselves of the character, ability and fitness of those aspiring to posi:ioti,so that the voter jyuRy be able X) cast his ballot_Jj0fBlligently. In the canvas* now about to dose in thtt^mate tor the United States JUfnatorship, there aro practically no dillereuces in platojm. The question to be decided ^ the people is that of personal itness. Who is the six, aspiring,o this position, is most capable )f representing South Carolina in die United States Senate with 'redit to himself and honor w his State? There is no doubt that?since erved for eight successive years, etiring voluntarily. In 1890 he was elected to congress from the Third District. Te was chairman of the comnit tee on Privileges andElections, rom which Mr. Crisp was electid speaker, and Mr. Johnston vas one to whom Mr. Crisp ook'Ml constantly tor assistance. N > man can show a cleaner ecord. Few can show a more ronarkable record. No man has lought more to do what he could u the interest of and for the wolair ot his people. In times like he-e there a demand for men, lot time servers; statesmen, nor politicians. There aro momentous jue-itions to he settled, and ibove all, do we need men who rro able to guppiu v? itii these question in the Notional Coin :ro-.s, and to do so intelligently unl with a wisdom and foresight horn of the ' fate1 man.

In fact, it is conceded that of dl the candidates, he has gained nost, this being admitted on all i lands. It may be well to inquire < nto the record and to study omething of the life of this man, vho, by sheer force of character ind ability of the highest order, las forged so rapidly to the front.
