QafTney, July 23.- A quiet, attentive audience or about 600 Cherokee coun? ty voters heard the candidates for State offices here today at tho ?Jmi meeting of the campaign.

I'ollock Tolls Berkeley County People What Sort Of Man Cole BIOOOO ami W hat Ho stands I or. Moncks Corner, July 23. "We were unanimous when we began und we ore! .till iftia nimous." These were the closing, words ol the chairman at the campaign meet? ing in Berkel? y county today, when Messrs Pollock, Dial and Rice ad dressed morv than .'too voters. The concise statement is an apt analysis of the situation it the lower 11:111 of the State as supported i>v the observations oi those besl qualified to judge In every community. And if re? ports coming in from remote territory are to be accepted, a storm of hate has broken agalnsl Cole L.* Blease for ids loose war talk, which is sweeping him Into hopeless disaster. it was emphasised in Qeorgetowi yesterday that the beat men ol that section, who had formerly supported Blease, had shaken all allegiance and w? re fighting as zealously against him as tiny had labored for him i" pre # vious campaigns, Blease was to hav< ppoken in Andrews last Saturdn i night, in conformity with custom? ary procedure in arousing commun? ity Interest the territory bad been cir? cuit ridden and the community h tercd with circulars advertising the meeting. The story in Georgetown yesterday was that only one store ii Andrews WOUld allow tin- placards to be placed in ih" windows. The una-; Ing was postponed. A similar condition was found In Berkeley county today. Blease's nor teal vote in this county lias ? been around 500, One who has been at. ardent supporter of \ Blease in th past said today he did not thin; Dlease could possibly get more than 150 votes in the county. Anothet who had been equally loyal to Bleasi in past years said ,'|'.lease's /diance have been sind so full of holes thai there is 110 more space to hit." Char l< ton Is confident that it w n be cat rled by N. B. Dial The most striking aspect of th< campaign is the question of leader hip. Bleaae Is in the perplexing di lemma of a chief of staff, with hi staff In mutiny. Bleaseites of the bei ter quality of leadership and Influ I'Uce are fuming upon him abruptl; ill *>\? r the State, a number of th.es? '<? Ing clb l in every county the cam paign party visits. Another group, the absence o ivhl ii Is equally conspicuous and as ? i.'lining to the Bleaae forces, is that ?udy of men who seek always to In ? a the popular or winning side as .. matter ol policy, that due considers ion may he accorded when political pie is to be distributed, bul whosi work on election day is no ess effe< live, a fact emphasized by man) i> liscussing leaders, Is that *??> n can no. lh*Ord tO la-come over /clous in til interests of a man. whose utterance lour months after war was declar d have brought him Into such ill re l>Ute. An interesting phase of the meeting ?1 Moncks Corner was w. p. Pollock'i i newer to the assertion by Blease eaders and newspapers that Bleasi v..is the 'logical successor to Senatoi ritlman, thai tho two stood for the ? ame things, in contradicting the tlateim ni by one ( i these prgaria that Acre Senator Tillman alive he doubt less would advise the voters to casi heir ballots for Blease, Mr, Pollock read a letter from Senator Tillman written two weeks before he died i which he said it "would be an mi speakable disgrace" for Blojisc to b< dected to the United states senate I he letter was wrlten June 22 ti ?'. O. Alien of Qneenville. Tho e? crpt read by Mr .Pollock was: ' ?ii is not for mysi n thai I 1,11 easy. It is for South Carolina's gOO name and for decent representation i lYnshlngton I am working. Beside m ha missing tho president and mak ing it possible for Iho obstruction u necessary legislation, Blease's electloi <? the United Slates senate would b? mi unspeakable disgrace to our Btat< oee which all good South Carolin ?ans ought to do everything poeslbh io prevent, indeed I c; ii nol concelv it po Bible thai South Carolina will s rar forget its pasl histor) and all II irnditions th it ha>e made it- name ? tynonym of honor and patriotism a to elect htm as my successor.
