Sumter, April 8.--Before the Young Men's Manning Club, which was or ganized hero Monday night to advance the Canlidicy of the lion. Richard I. Manning, of Sumter, for Governor of South Carolina, Mr. Manning who was sent for, made a brief address before tie club, outlining his platform as fol lows: An Issue before the people of this state is that of safeguarding the pri mary elections. The Constitution of 1895 restricted the suffrage so as to eliminate, as far as practicable, the negro vote. Question between the white:: were to be settled by a friend ly family tight in the primaries, in which every white man, who was not barred by the constitutional and slat ulary provisions, was to vote. U nIer these conditions differences among the whites were Settled, but being a sort of family affair, no rigid rules were mitde or practiced. 'T'hie rules govern ing primary elections, loose as they wei e, w('re often disregarded, until it beenmlle the customl to let thems go in almost any way. When difIerenes arose and feeling rane high, and d is (rist of eac i other erelt in, dissatis faction with prevailing methods was manifested and charges and coiniter chii arges of irregu larities and illegal voting were made. White men's differ ences must be settled fairly. Party feeling and prejudice often caused ien to (iisregar d exact justlee and fairness. ('nder our pre: en~t party rule the par ty elections are loosely c'onducted aand abuidanIt opportunity exists for re peating and illegal voting. We should adopt such changes in our party ruie Is will insure to every man to vote once, blut to vote but once. It should be made impossible to permit repeat ing or to allow non-residents aad r ti I .ens not entitled to vote to kill the votes of :ou1th Carolinians whose right and prerogative it is to vote. We Should see to it tiat only living South ['arolinians be allowed to vote, and Lach inan only onee. In order that the Irilary miay be preserved and not de itroyed. ior Fair Assessments. I shall advocate such changes in as sessmlenl and taxation as shall more fairly distribute the burdens of taxa tion. atid make more equal assess ments, and with exemptions of Small . lomes in town, and a home and samall ariis of inited acreage, and I shall advocate Such laws as will promote Ownership of lomnes 1s townl, 1and( a Ilomaiand small fI farm in the coun try. I shall ad ivtenit a lang registration bill and encoulilageillent to rural credits, warehousing of cotton, better mar keting of crops, accurate grading of otton, and protection from fraud or I tuditeration of fertilizers, which will rrotect. the farmer and honest fertiliz- I r nianufacturer and by maulking lifIo m the farms 'more pirofitabile an~d more ileasant and comfortable, many of our problems will be solvod in a afte and sanlO mlannor, Stelf-protectionl, andi~ the soluiloll of rural pirobilims, whlich con front us, requtire attention to thlese matters. I shalh enlarge on these subjects later. Economly with EI'Ihleincy. I wishl to stress the implortance of tile appllica~tion of good business meth ods5 to the admlinistration of all of the affairs or our stalte. I believe in elii ciency with economy. The Governor can, by close stud~y and attention to the affairs of the various institutions of the State insure econIomy sand greater effectiveness with an ever widIening developmen~tt and if elected, I will give to my state a cleani, piro gressive busi ness administrat ion. Educalt Ion. I favor education at public explense. SouthI Carol Ina stanids narly bottom of the list in the periCentage of illit eracy. I shall niever hie saitisledl until this piercentage of illiteracy is redulced. WVe have 'madec great prdgres4s in our educational system, more and( mlore mloneCy is beiing spenlt for the cause of edulcation11. As at parent canniiiot spiend is mione~y betteri thean 1by euctinug his child(, so tihe state cainlnot spiendl its money lietter than biy eduienting the citizenl. I favor thle maintenianei aind support1 oif in sti tuItions (if hIigher learnl lng, and1( provisionis for their growth and developmlient to meet growing needs, lint, I emphlatslze the nieedls of the publIc school1s. A l iberal appro piriatloln shld~ lie made by the State of a fund to suppllemlent the funds for the school raisedl locally-thus to endorl~se and( to encouirage the spiirit of self help. An .educated citilzenship is the real justiflcation for puli c education. We murst mlake parents realize the neces sity for edulcationl. That sentiiment must lbe so strong as to force parents to sendi thleir chidreni to school. WVhen a comi'mulnity renehes that poinit almost all of the white children will be In schlool, and a law requiring attendlance upon school by all children bietween contnin ag'es will ha eftnctive. and ns soon as it is 4hown that a county can have adequate school facilities. I would favor compulsory education, with the local option feature, because any law to be effective must be sup ported by public sentiment. More legis lation is not a cure-all. Says No Fetionalism. , I want to be frank with you, my friends and neighbors. I want to be equally frank with my fellow citizens throughout the state who do not know mec as well ats you do-SI will not sail under false colors--I want all voters to know where I stand on public ques tions. I want peace restored in South Carolinn. This statement I made months ago, and have had no reason to chanige it. I want good will, good feel ing. 1 want to see factional politics relegated to the past. I want the peo ple to unite in advocating the policies which will build up our state, improve and uplift the character of 'the citizen and give opportunity to better condi tions. I shall not, unless forced to do so, recognize the existence of two fac tions in this state. I have many friends and suppor'ter's who voted for IHlease and many who voted for .lones. In the governor's race let u!s drop the person alities of the past and. looking ahead, talCe up those questions which affect the interest and welfare of the people. It is, however, only frank for me to state so that all may understand ame arnd my attitude ihat I have never been a follower or soupporter of Governor I1lease, nor have I ap lproved his course. Sione have attemipted to inject the is sue of lileaseism into the gubernatorial race. WlilIe I do not agree withi them in. tlis, if the same is persisted inl, then mily attitude is known and is as stated. I will have no fear liii mee.ting such in issue. If elected governor I promise to he he governor of all the people and not f those only wldo supported m1le. I pledge myself to do justly and 'to love nercy and to uphold and maintain the ionor said dignity of South Carolina.
