educational facilities, thought every
boy and girl should be able, at least,
to read and write, and thought if
our present system were run on a
more business-like principle they
would soon be able to do so. He
charged that school trustees do not
all do their duty. He favors all
public institutions, but they should
be run on a more economical basis,
and charge^ that a most damnable
system of extravagance exists at
Clemson College and that our Representatives
had no right to turn
loose so much money on Clemson
College. He was opposed to the present
system of working roads, does
not believe taxes should be increased,
favors more liberal pensions to

fold soldiers,ana rural ponce u we cou
get right kind of men for the place;
i some of them don't do their duty
, and others do too much. He prom->
^sed, if elected, to represent every
| interest of the county except the
manufacturer and the railroads.
F R HEMINGWAY. /
Mr Hemingway said 1 oelieved in
education and stood for good schools;
didn't want to see money wasted
and believed in liberal support of
public institutions. Did not think
we need a State-wide compulsory edi
ucation law, but favored it in local
'
! option form. He favored good roads
and the law providing for rural policemen.
He was in favor of better
Iqotc fnr fhp workinc man and a
more liberal pension to the old soldiers.
Did not believe in false economy,
but full benefit should be had
for all money spent. He advocated
a tax reform and equalization that
will make the large property-holder
pay in proportion to the small one.
In concluding his remarks,Mr Hemingway
said he stood for law and
order, that we cannot afford to stay
the progress of civilization by disregarding
law, and upon those principles
he asked the support of the
people at the polls August 25.
H A KENNEDY.
Mr Kennedy said he was no speaker
but had come from the plow and
as a poor,honest farm boy was there
to aDDeal to the farmers from the |
depth of his heart. He believed
they had been tramped on long
enough and asked them to cast
their votes for a man who would
stand by them in the Legislative
halls.
R J KIRK.
Mr Kirk thanked the people of
Juhnsonville for the splendid vote
given him there two years ago and
made it known that he felt at home
in their midst. He told of measures i
heiiad been instrumental in placing <
upon the statute books that were 1
beneficial to the people of the coun- <
ty, and promised, if re-elected,to do 1
his utmost towards the passage of a ]
6 per cent interest law. In regard <
to compulsory education, Mr Kirk i
said he stood now just where he s
stood in the Legislature during its i
last session. He was in favor of i
compulsory education in local option s
form bu4 would not advocate a com- I
pubory education bill such as Mr <

Clinkscales advocates. With regard
to reports that had been circulated
to the effect that he had gone over
to Mr Blease, he said they were untrue,
that he favored no faction.
He had supported several of Mr
Blease's bills and voted for his twocent
rate bill, also that he had sustained
several of his vetoes. He;
had supported the Fortner bill because
he considered that to have
done otherwise he would have acted
in violation of his oath of office.
When asked if he was in favor of
rural policemen he said he was since
the dispensary had been voted back
into the county.
DR J H PRATT.
The Doctor said it was a pleasure
to be with the people of Johnsonville
to discuss the political topics of
the day and hour; he thought there
had been enough strife and bitterness
in our State politics. He believes
the great European war will
be an advantage to us after tht war
clouds have passed. After referring
briefly to several problems of great
National importance the speaker
got on home ground and said he
stood for educational improvement,
for better roads, for medical inspection
of public schools, a two-cent
flat rate fare on all large railroads;
for the eradication of the cattle tick,
extension of rural credits, liberal
pensions to old soldiers, longer
school terms and better school buildings,
and thought it was up to the
Legislature to foster the educational
interests of the county. He said he
was a friend of Clemson college but
thought too much money was going
to it. He was in favor compulsory
education in local option form, and
rural police.
E F PROSSER.
"Fellow citizens, I am one of you;
I was reared among you,and you all
know me; four years ago I ran for
the Legislature and told you that if
I got beaten I'd go back to the plow.
I was beat and I've kept my word,"
said Mr Prosser. He said all the
other candidates had told what they
were going to do, but he was going
to tell them what he was not going I
to do, and added, "I ain't going to
promise you a durn thing"?and he
didn't.
R K WALLACE.
The "Judge" was the last of the
candidates for the House of Representatives
to speak. He started out
by defining the qualifications in men
who seek certain positions or public
offices. He said he believed in education,
that its need was apparent
everywhere, but did not think our i
county was ready for a compulsory |
pHnr?ntinn law Hp was in favor of I
good roads, because we need them,
and outlined a plan by which he j
would have them. This plan provides
for the election of three men as
a board of road inspectors, or 1
commissioners,then divide the coun- (
ty into three sections, giving each '
commissioner one section, in which
would be held responsible for the j
soads. An equal division of the j
chaingang force would be made
imong the commissioners and each
section share equally and alternatelately
in the use of the county road (
machinery. Mr Wallace devoted 1
some time to a discussion of the i
iresent game and fish laws of the i
:ounty, which ihe claimed were a i

farce. He favored protective measures
along this line th^t will protect
our game and fish. He was not opposed
to appropriating money to
public institutions,but thought public
funds should be morp wisely and
judiciously spent. He was in favor
of rural policemen and a better system
of taxation.
The two candidates for the State
Senate were the last of the orators
to be heard, and while it was
noticeable that the crowd had become
a little v restless, they all remained
quiet and respectful. The
first of these to speak was the
present incumbent.
E c EPPS.
Mr Epps said that conditions
which existed four years ago invited
him into public life, but he did not
yield until after other capable men
had been solicited and declined. He
spoke of the deep personal interest
and pride he feels in the county's
progress and her splendid citizenship.
He said he had been a Senator
from Williamsburg county and
not from Kingstree and had worked
for what he thought were the best
interests of the whole county. He
fought the compulsory education
bill because he did not believe the
people wanted it. He was in favor
of education and was ready to give
his support to any measure that
would, in the opinion of his constituents,
improve the educational ad
. it. 17A ?al4

that he was in a better position to
serve his people in the Senate chamber
than ever before. Had no personal
{motives to gratify, and if he
should be re-elected he would always
look faithfully after the interests
of the people of Williamsburg
county and that he was under no
obligation to any class or faction.
HUGH MCCUTCHEN.
Mr McCutchen thought the audience
was tired and promised not to
detain them much longer. He said
that Chairman Davis had not stated
all the facts in introducing him, inasmuch
as he had failed to state
that "I will be your next Senator."
He told of his boyhood days in the
vicinity and pleasant recollections of
the community. He said that 14
vpnrs ao-o Edds and himself and sev
era] others started out for the place
Britton holds. Epps dropped out,
but he remained in the race and
was beat out?which cured him of
sucking eggs for 14 years. Friends
had solicited him to enter this race, j
he said, "and if you see fit to send
me to Columbia, I'll do my part."i
He was interested in the county's
prosperity, was president of four of
the leading concerns in Kingstree
and each one was far from a failure.
He closed by telling a good joke on i
an old negro preacher.
At the request of Chairman Davis,
Mr P H Stoll made a short speech
md the first meeting of the 1914
;ampaign closed in peace, good will1
larmony. W F T
The candidates spoke yesterday at1
Morrisville and will be at Trio tonorrow.
