Ho charged that it is easy enough to hoi ler on the stump whal one will do as governor m t what is the record? n some members of th<> ways and means I committoo had worked as hard as ho, there would have been no extrava gance. He denied that there is pros perity. Merchants arc cutting off clerks, sonic are going to the wall. ! Why? Because taxes are so high. It this thing keeps up tl.e English feudal system will be dullcnted here and a few rich men ami Northern capital ists will own everything. As to good schools and good roads and Confeder ate soldiers, all were agreed. He praised denominational colleges. He claimed to stand where he had always done, for local option, lie de clared that hip pocket blind tigers are going aii over liiec ouniry ami laugh ing at the prohibition law. JllO. T. Duncan spoke about as usual. lie recalled the tact that it was at Rennettsville l l years ago that i lien Tlllman butted in witli a letter and tried to keep Hum-an from run ning against .lohn Gary lOvans. Discussed Liquor Question. Mr. Featherstone. who was received with an ovation, launched into tue discussion of the liquor question rlghl away. The other candidates had apologized for discussing it. lie would never npologi'/.O for standing up for the right, lie replied to ('apt. Richard's charge that he (Foathor stoue) had temporized with the local optionisls. Thai same interview, it Mr. Richards bad quoted it fully, would show that ho had then declared that he was always for prohibition hut had to make concessions to local opt ion. Mr. Featherstone declared he would not have to go over the Stale defend ing Iiis record. Ills llrsl prohibition speech was made at Anderson 21 years ago. lie poured hot shol into Mr. Rlchnrds. When Featherstone was making the light for prohibition in IS'.'S. Richards was going up ami down in Korshnw county declaring' lor the rotten old State dispensary ami he kept it up until the dispensary was killed. And then be climbed up on the prohibition platform. Feather stone declared that instead of getting on Richard's platform it was the other I way and Featherstone welcomes the recruit, lie would pledge himself to hold up Richards' hands in the en forcement of the law should he be elected governor. I'uKound Proposition. Local option is an unsound propo sition when applied to public health or public welfare, and a State-wide law is the only safety. 'Since the time I gave out that 'local option' interview. l.*> counties have voted out the dispensary.'' bo said. As to Iiis legnr career and business record, he would not speak for him self. The members of the bar in In counties had him appointed special ' judge to preside in their courts and j he had twice boon appointed to hold court in his ownc ouuty, When ho declared that he would enforce the law in all parts of the State. Mr. Featherstone was cheered. Also when he declared that he would grant very few pardons. There is a vast difference between stinginess and economy, he said. The tendency of all legislative bodies is I toward extravagance, lie is not in favor of stinginess but he believes in ? ' no wastefulness. Mr, Featherstone concluded amid ' gr 'at applause, For Lieutenant (encrtmr. { c \ Smith declared that lieutenant governor is mi minor office, No olllco is a minor ofllce, The lieutenant gov ernor has few ronlly legislative duties. He feels that in- has the qualifications a sense id' fairness ami justness With a degree of experience as a parlia mentary officer. Tin* candidates seem all ngrccd except on the l|;;n,v qucr. Hon. He stood firmly for prohibition. The tine idea of the brotherhood ol man in service R Walker Duvnll was well received When he was presented. Marlboro, he had said, has been sending so many :mn to Chesterfield that the !Ye Dee is now but one thing Which makes the twoc ountles one people. He dif fered from Mr. Smith that the only thing the lieutenant governor has to do is to 'ook pleasant like Taft. Mr. Dttva'l Contended tint It 's not i business to let taxes exceed the nat ural Increase in Income He claimed ' that the appropriation can he cut down and he would use lii.- Influence , to that end. He favors good roads, bat he opposed oroposed state high way commission on the ground that <t wot.id be a moans of extravagance rather than Otherwise. On the liquor question he declared that Chestorfldd ha. settled the matter I'lghtlV by vot ing out the dispensaries. There is rigid prohibition In Chesterfield coun ty but he believes it would give n backset to the Cause of Stale-wido pro Chesterfield Meeting. Che8terfleld, June 27.?Messrs Rich ard and Featherstone waded into each other's prohibition record lure today, their charges and countercharges fea turing the in* resting meeting of the candidates Court is In session here, but In spite Of this fact, there was a large attendance Mr. McLcod had no soon* r conclud ed a spirited discussion of the is sues, when Major Richards took the floor and proceeded to answer charges made by a Charleston news paper and others as to his Inconsist ency on the liquor question, lie was "going to tomh. up his friends Pea til erstone," he said, and declared that the Laurens gentleman nominated him to lead the light in the legisla ture against the State dispensary. Ma jor Richards said he had always been a prohibitionist and ahd accepted the dispensary as a means to prohibition. When it came 1 is turn, Mr. Feath erstone stiid that the other candidates were jumping on him. That the light was not of bis choosing but that they would find him willing and ' ready. lie said his prohibition rec ord did not need defending and thai | any accusation that he had been false to the cause was an absolute false hood. Mr. Fet.therstone said that Richards was declaring that the old rotten state dispensary was tlx best solution of !!,?? problem when lie (Featherstone) was fighting for pro hlbltion. Sim," of Richards' friends exclaimed, the speaker said, they did not know wbethei !,?> was converted to prohibition or that bis declarations was a sort of dei th bed repentance. Mr. F. II. Hyi it, of Columbia, ap pealed to th<' audience as a business! man to business people and Mr Mc-! I.cod stressed the need oi equality in, tax assessment. Mr. Blouse hi ? ? t ourse of his 1 speech said II the women would teach moral:':;.- tin 1 . Ilgion :?? their children and stop unnlnj. around tell ing falsehood- on some of the can didates for gov< nor, they would help prohibition more. Mr. \V. F.
