Q ?J A M SATISFIED WITH BOARDS ACTION Governor Bicase's Statement on Changes iu School Book?, Columbia, June -s.?Governor Bleute this afternoon Issued ? state- j ment In connection with 11 ^?? text hook contract matter, Governor Blease said: "I have teen Buperlnt ndent Swear*J Ingen'i statement, i have no com? ment to make, He Is entitled to his opinion, and 1 have tit.- highest re? gard for him, and, If he Is a candi? date for re-election, hi has my best wishes for his success, for i think he Is consclentloui and trying to do what h< believes Is right How? ever, after s most careful "?nd thorough Investigation, 1 am satisfied that the seven gentlemen who repre-1 stilted the State by appointment on this hoard, ?and who were appointed by my predecessor,) are equally as conscientious and as honorable gen? tlemen, and did what they believed was for the best Interest Of the chil? dren of south Carolina, ?' considered the changing of this board. Certain newspapers were very load in their denunciation of me in contemplation of such action and spoke in the very highest and !aud sbls terms of these gentlemen, and it appeared from their ravings that if i removed f ss gentlemen i would have been subjected to the most se? vere censure ? Now. that the adoption is over, ?Ums of th. sr sam< papers arc criti vdsing these gentlen.en If they can make their position consistent, after publishing these c< ntradlotory state? ments, all right, for it will only be in keeping with the easing <?f their con? science for their other falsehoods and I Vituperation in w hich they have en? gaged. "On the morning of the beginning of the book adoption. I was called away from Columbia and, therefore, was not present at the adoption of the books on the morning of the first lay. Neither was I present when the ote was taken on the question raised by Superintendent Swearingen?that each man record his vote on each book. If I had been present I would have voted for Mr. Swvaringen's plan; ind, if any one is interested enough to know, I will be delighted to state how I voted on each book that was adopted during my presence. I think my record in the House of Represent? atives and in the State Senate and in the Governor's office will justify me In saying that I have always been free and open In every act that 1 have SVer committed, and I have no apol OglSS to make to any man or set of men. 1 recognize no 'boss' but the people, and, when I go before them to them alone will I give an account. "I refused on several occasions to les book men, Notably in this class were the agents of the American book Company, and I have been informed that Mr. Fair, one of their representa? tives, was rather severe in his criti elsm <-f my not allowing him to see me and discus.-; his books with him. When book men called, I declined to see them stating to some to see Mr. Swearingen, that he was state Super? intendent of Education, and that the people had elected him to perform that duty and not me. As to Ginn am' | Co., I guess Mr. Walker will hardly say that 1 had any favors for them. The only agents with whom I did have any conversation of consequence, did not uet even a book, except Prof. White. "As I have said before, my li^ht was for Southern books, and WS ad? opted White's. Thompson's. Kinard's. Wallace's, Sim's, and other South Carolins authors. As to the Wheeler reader, while I was not present when they were adopted, they are bv a Ksntucklan and many of the other books adopted were by Southern au thorsi and in my opinion, our people would rather pay a llttlS more and have their children taught the truth in Southern hooks, than to pay less and be taught books by Yankee au? thors, and taught to believe that their grand fathers, and their great-grand? fathers were traitors to their State. "I regret that Superintendent Swearingen looks at the matter as he does. "As for my part of it I w a 4 a^ tO t he He. ds ?Iren. I did the best I c< the balance - I refer th Prof, O'Drlscoll; Mr. Daniels, Prof, Rembert, Prof, Thackston and Senator Glenn. If this is a Blease hoard, or if those gentlemen were controlled by me, or if they ere corrupt, then lay all the blame on my shoulders, and I will gladly tarry it until th South Carolina give th "lay it down."
