Wonder if he j also resents the high price of cotton I and tobacco. Twenty-nine candidates in ()r-^ angeburg eountv have offered thei": i sendees as cotton weighers. This! seems tt? l?e a popular job in Orange-' burg. Candidate Richards seems to l>e more anxious to defeat Senator E D Smith for re-election to the Tinted States Senate than to get himself elected Governor. We wonder why '? - Smith'' i I1C IP fV i'ibid - .....? Evidently there's a reason. The town of King^tree is not naturally infested with mosquitoes. This we know to l?e a fact, as we lived here many years without: , screens or mosquito nets and the mosquito was a negligible quantity, it is only since the so-called aseptic tank was put in that the genus Anopheles has made life miserable for denizens of certain parts of town. Practically every dollar The Record earns is spent right here in Kingstree. Our men live, move and have their l>eing here and King stree's interests are theirs. Yet we| find some of our friends, who for an imaginary saving, will force us j>e4ow the cost of production or threaten us with "the other fellow." That is a most effective policy.to kill a town. ??? ; At a campaign meeting recently! I one of Senator Smith's opponents twitted him with not raising the price of cotton to fifteen cents, if he had such great power, when a cotton factory operative?one of Blease's "vest pocket editions"?yelled.out: ' "We wouldn't vote to send him J hack, if he did raise it to fifteen J cents." Very naturally he would J not. There is an irrepressible con- j flict between the pr??ducer and the consumer. The mill man want? the price of cotton as low as it is j>ossible to hammer it down. Self i i interest prompts him to want his ' mill to buy raw material as cheap1 ( as possible-, because thereby the '> mill can afford to pay him and hisfellow-workmen letter wages. Hut I ( i? it t<> the interest of the farmer? ! ] the man ivho produces the raw t material?to support the same man ] that the cotton mill operatives ' want? Well, hardly. i i y BLEASE AND NORWOOD! COME NEAR TO BLOWS!; WORDS OVER RICHEY PARDON J CAUSE OF ROW?BLEASE < HURLED FIRST INSULT. s Greenville, July IS: ? While j three thousand people watched . with hated hreath, expecting to witness a fisticuff, perhaps the shed- * ding of blood, one of the leading . bankers of SSoutli C arolina, .1 \?nkins Norwood, of this city, strug- ' gled frantically to break away from * a number o?men holding him and to personally resent what he considered an insult offered him by the j Governor *>f the State, Cole h11 Blease, during the Senatorial campaign meeting here today. The trouble started while the Governor r was speaking, when Mr Norwood, I j who was on the stand at the rear, r asked, "How a Unit Dr Mcintosh?" u The Governor replied: "When < I get to Columbia I will ask Dr Me- i ^ nil tllo dtultlj anil tllWI 311- I IlllWII \'H VI tv OlUiiM W..V. ?... , swer the question, not behind his|j back, like a coward like you." Mr t Norwood then made an effort to get . to Governor Blease, hurling an ( epithet at the Executive while endeavoring to break from the half j dozen or more men who seized him. J Sheriff Hector and Mayor Marshall were also on the stand and appeared to l>c using their best efforts to avert a clash, and perhaps a tragedy. Several men were heard to ! make threats of shooting. The ! trover nor remained where he had ; been speaking, and by his side were i State Detective E F Hammond and several others, who, it was said, were also officers. Mr Norwood's question, ''How about Dr Mcintosh?" was prompt ed by a statement issued by Dr J Hij Mcintosh, of Columbia, denying that he had recommended a pardon or parole for K A Hichey, of Abbeville, which matter Governor Bleaae I exhaustively reviewed at the meet- j ing in Abbeville, when he read a j statement from Dr. Mcintosh, who < had examined Hichey while in the j penitentiary. In his last statement ] I)r Mcintosh declared he not only 11 did not recommend the pardon of ! j Hichey, but that he had stated in j j his first certificate that he believed IJ Hichey was feigning. 11 After the candidates had spoken | j there were many calls for Mr >or- j wood, who came to the front of the | stand and in a simple manner related j his version of the affair,saying that, j "If what Dr Mcintosh says is true, f Blease is what we all know him to ; he, a dirty, infamous liar." He then bitterly arraigned the Govern- ! or, saying Newberry is the home of ] Governor Blease and I)r Mcintosh, ii that "Blease can't go into the home of Dr Mcintosh" and the latter "would not enter the home of Blease.". He said that any educated man who was supporting Blease was a dirty skunk." He made further remarks bitterly denouncing the Governor and his followers, saying: "This fellow Richards running for Governor is a prince of hypocrites. ! "I happen,to know that." He j declared every man in Greenville < interested in selling blind tiger I liquor was "tearing his slyrt for J Blease and Rector." Mr Norwood is president of the ! Norwood National Bank of this city ] and is interested in banks in other j i places. He is said to be the second ] largest representative of banking in- j j terests in South Carolina and is a : brother of Joseph J Norwood, the ! well-known hanker of Columbia.*' ] Greenville has no citizen more jj prominent that J Wilkins Norwood $ and many expressions of resent- ' ment were heard from Greenville, people that Governor Blease's reply i to Mr Norwood was insulting and! uncalled for. To-day's crowd was anti-Blease) by three to one, according to County Chairman M Mills Mooney, who presided, and of whom the Governor spoke in high praise during Vii< <rwwli T!u> bptran iit ' ..... . fsvyv... * O O 1 o'clock, all the twelve cotton mills around Greenville having closed at noon, so that as many operatives as desired could hear the candidates. Several hundreds of them marched to the park, where the meeting was held, behind a Blease banner and when the Governor, who spoke second, concluded, most of the marchers left the grounds with him. The line-up appeared to be the same as in other cotton mill towns, the j farmers for Smith, the mill men i for Blease, and there were hundreds) >f farmers present to-day. Messrs Jennings and Pollock evi- J iently had many friends in thej mdicnce. Their speeches were splendidly rece:ved and they were ??? SHAKE INTO YOUR 8H0ES Mien's Foot-Ease, the antiseptic powder.
