Charlestoni .1 colonel on the Gover nor's staff, about the charge! of graft having bei n traced tt, ihe Governor's office, came tin announcement of the* resignation of Col. V. It. Cheshire, of Anderson, nnother colonel <??) the Governor's staff, the announcement of the resignation having been sent out from Anderson by Col, I.n M, Green, stHl another colonel on the Governor's staff. The light which the Anti-Bleaseltes have been making on the Governor seems secondary with the onslaught now being made "ii the Chief Executive by the mem? bers of his official family, formerly his warmest political supporters ami idmirers, The resignation of Col, Cheshire Is accounted the most *iur nllieent development of the day, and seems t" foreshadow n stampede h Judge Jones, and n further strength? ening of the assertion that Blease will go down to defeat under an avalanche of Jones votes, and "Rleaseism" be consigned to ob? livion, "It's the case of desertions from a sinking ship," was the terse comment of a strong political ob? server this morning. The following announcement, au? thorized by Col. V. R. Cheshire, "re? tired," was prepared last night by Col, L. M. Green, of Anderson, and soot oui to several papers ?>f the State: "On the evt of Ihe opening of the State campaign, and close upon the recent break between Col, John P, Grace, Mayor of Charleston, and Governor Cole L, ill ease, is the an? nouncement mad.- tonight that Col. Victor 11. Cheshire, publisher of the Anderson intelligencer, has resigned from the stiff of Governor Blease. This \a a political break of extreme importance, for Col, Cheshire holds the balance of power in Anderson county, which polls 5,000 votes, and which Governor lllease carried in the last election by about S,M?. Political observers say this break means ,1 loss of Anderson county lo tin Governor, and seriously affects his chances for l e-elect ion. "Col. Cheshire was attacked In his office by a local magistrate and another citizen, Whil ? a constable of Governor Blease stood guard on R near-by railway bridge. Col, Cheshire asked for the removal of the two men. and the Governor refused. Thereupon Col, Cheshire resigned, and will noi support the Governor In his race for re-election. ?"The Mayor of Charleston begins testimony to-morrow morning in Co? lumbia -'is to his charge that he can trace graft practically to the Govern? or. This, with the break tonight be? tween Blease and Cheshire. may ?hange the entire political situation in the State. "L. M. Green."
