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."
