Tillman, lieutenant Governor. Although cannot refer to political record in the House or Seni ate. While I have not been tallying it around they all know that I am a son of an old soldier and will do as much as any one else for the country. I Said ' that the company that went I from Union to the Cuban war was (one of the best companies in the service, and they would have proved themselves sons of noble aires if they had become engaged in a fight. B. B. Evans, Railroad Commissioner, thanks the hearers for handsome vote given him before*. Illustrated the difference in freight charges, Atlanta, Ga.t and points in this State, unjust discrimination. Cotton cannot be shipped from the lower county, fi5 to.50 cents per hundred, freight charges on each bale to your mill, tho reduction on things enumerated by opponent aro things that are not so much used by the farmers as flour, corn, meat, meal, etc. Spoke as to the discrimination at Spartanburg, by fre'ght going through cheupor than when it stops there, as to Carlisle also, and the unnecessary delay of passengers there, (a wait of 1 to 0 hours.) Commissioners should look after theso things. Gave the road fits on their depot here, said it was not fit for negroes, only few towns whore the Yankee tourists came are furnished with nice depots. Looks like the roads owns the Commissioners. Fertilizers all in the hands of trusts. Armour ?fc Co. have got up an opposition plant, which will hold them, down awhilo, but in a few years you will be paying two to five dollars a ton more for your guano. Reports will show a discrimination against the Piedmont section in favor of the Peo Dee section. $160,000 a year paid by yon more .than you should, time called and could not run out the argument. Mr. W. I), May field was one of the candidates for Railroad Commissioner who did not get to speak but in a talk with him he states his platform about as follows: Freight rates should be so regulated as to encourage fruit growers, truck farmers and canners, and enable them to offer their products on the markot on equal terms with any State. Induce manufacturers of all kinds to locate in this State and enable them to offer their products on the market on equal terms with any State. Enable cotton mills in this State to buy on any market in this State. Give cotton mills the best rates for shipping their products. Enable wholesale merchants in this State to compete wfth wholesale merchants in adjoining States. Make Charleston, Port j Royal and Georgetown import and export cities on an equal footing with Wilmington and Savannah. Jos. T. Johnson, for Congress, says ho does not make a practico of talking about his opponent,or of delving Into his life to find out his faults j if ho has any. If should be able to show that'he was the worst kind of a man that would not make him (Johnson) any better man, was running on i his own merits, and wished to talk nKrtiif. inaf.f.Ara f.hnf. hftVA nnf, vpf, hpf>n ; presented. Progress and expansion has been the watchword of American Independence. But we are now about ' to bo led into imperialism. There is \ a vast difference between Jeffersonian and McKinley expanision. In tho | midst of his explanation of the difi rerence he was called down by tho chairman, Mr. Johnson was under the impression that he had thirty instead of 10 minutes in which to , speak. He was allowed two minutes > in which to close and he attacked the extravagance of keeping the army in the Philippines and said it was costing the government $200,000 to koep - the army thore. Did not believe in I shooting religion into people. Said ' he would not have got up if had L known he was only allowed 10 minutes. [ Hon. Stanyarne wilson showed a | magnanimous spirit when he was in* troduced, by stating that he would not make a speech lie knew that J he had a large crowd to speak to and , that It was a good opportunity, but , he also saw What an advantage he would have over his opponent, wno ? had no showing and be it said to his ? credit that ho would not stoop to L take even a seemingly unfair advent, age, so he confined himself to a few i pleasant remarks to the audience, - and just touched upon national issues I to giro the Ropublloan party a rap,do nouncing it with its Boss Hauna, as 1 the most monstrous iniquity that had * ever flourished on the face of the 1 earth. \...... 1 Both Mt. Johnson and Mr. Wilson were invited, by obairman Greer, to s attend our county campaign meetings I and talk to the people. They promf ised to do so. > Hon. Bk H. Tillman was greeted with cheers and the crowd closed up B to the front). fTe said he vrfls giad to reeolye this hearty gfeetirg from Our s people after an absence of iivo years, that he appeared before them without 1 opposition "becauso even those who 1. used to be his most bitter enemies I had come to a realization of the fact t that he was not such a devil as thoy 3 thought he was after all. He said ? these meetlegs which made tho cah* t didates come before and faoe people ? whse suffrage they sought was the V rosuit of the reform movement. Now be was b.oing attacked tot e entering this campaign and taking - part la Stats Issues, he was here by u'u ' * ? ' ' * t ... iijgri 1^1 1 he authority of the State Democratic convention who had ordered the candidates to cpipc before the people, he was a candidate for Senator, it was not his fault that ho had no op-1 position. He ' L?on working n* hard as an ox for you all In Washington and need rest, but what if "I hadn't come ? yon alt would havo boen among the first to sneeringly say, oh, yes, Ben Tillman, who used to pretend so much lovo for the poor termors, the one-gallus boys [voice?and the wool hat boys] yes, and the wool hat boy8, has got above us sinco he has got to Washington, ho has got too big for his breeches." Now he is hero and they are saying Ben Tillman is medling, and trying to boss the State Campaign. Col. Hoyt has entered a protest against my coming into this campaign and meddling. It has been said that I wanted the dispensary as a political machine. What do I want with any better machine than I already have, that is you witn your votes, you who have always stood by me and put mo in tho placo I occupy, you are all the machine I need or want. There arc those who have no opposition, and who are keeping out of the race, well the difference is they are politicians while I am a statesman. This may sound egotistical, but I consider u statesman as being one who will" stand up for his people and endeavor to lend them in the way shoy should go. The prohibition voto was not in the majority. If It had been 1 would have let it come. I did not think that it would be the correct system, would cause you to be liars as you would have to lie to got your whiskey. So I advocated tho dispensary, lie says prohibition is the daddy of the dispensary, and common sense tho mother. Saw that old sour-faced fanatneism gill laying for prohibition, so helped him, prohibition, to marry common sense, is not making these men's light is friend of Hoyt etc. If you have not senso enough to elect a Govornor, God pity you, you ought to go to tho poor house as well as to a lunatic asylum. You are tho judges, but would be sorry to have I VOll to nnpfl morft ni?n t.Vin ftw the flowing in of whiskey. Seven years of dispensary, settled by four elections, but new they come forward and say they will fight forever. ' As to CbarleaUaot.4^ <n ?L? i<iB m "south Caroline or is South Carolina in Charleston? Ia not satisfied him self with the law, too much wranglo and infernal fussing in that board of control, and too much shortages shown up. A cleaning up needed. We need not kill the law because there is stealing. Same with some Treasurers. You hear of them being short occasionally. Hoyt says he will take all the votes he can get, turning to Mr. Wilson he says. "I suppose that is tho idea of all you candidates isn't it?" Wilson's reply was, "Yos, all good, honest votes?waving his hand, all of them ore honest." Tillman took hini up instantly and said, "Oh, don't modify it. If you mean to say good hhnest votes I will say that some of the votes far Hoyt are dishonest," on account of tho whifkey voters' support. Is dealing with men as they are. Hoyt is going to treat, you as men who would never drink except as medicine. You have determined what you want, now you must have the men who wish to represent you express their opinion of this thing on the stump. Notorious fact that whiskey is sold over the counter, of course it Is, but that is not tho fault of tho law bub of the enforcement of it. Hand primary on the question. Prohibitionists did not vote the opposition showed a number of hands up. Culled attention to tho fact of tho effort of the Republican party to reduce our Congressmen on the voting strength and urged every man to go to the polls and vote at the general election, as that would be the lover the Republicans would use to reduce our representation, therefore it was necessary to poll every single vote in the State. One or two candidates arrived after Tillman's speech, but the crowd which were tired out would stay no longer to listen and dispersed. It was an all round model campaign dnj', no rowdyism or drunkenness and everything passed olt pleasantly. Campaign day is over and the candidates have gone on their way rejoiclng.
