A Partial Record of What He Has Accomplished in Congreaa. The Third Congressional District, and Anderson county in particular, presents a candidate for the United 'States Senate in the person of Con* gressman A. C. Latimer who has , special fitness for the place as shown ^ .by his past record. And what is that record? A poor boy left by the _-fortunes .oLiur without the means of KOWing an education beyond that afforded by the old field school, fie ; started life with the only legacy left him?that of the plow handles. He has tried the field and the furrow in M*U ife varying phases, and is and bf4 -hPW ar>*8uccesaful farmer, and mors tborpdgfily. -updejptanfl? the needs, and is in tnore thorough sympathy with the ^agricultural pop ulation than any other man in the field. And this, not in antagonism to the other varied interests of'the State, but as ljiusr at the basis of all perott fb^rthers will necessarily # share jn- it, anc} that n? country and no bther interests can prosper' when apiculture is depressed. +. . ^Mjr* i*?timer han brought to the, le*l and ppergy, the same honesty and square dealing, tfip samp practical business sense that has guided through life in his private business, and that he has made a success of it. Look at the reconT'ef listen years in congress in results brought to the people of the Third district:1 It' is not exag ? ration to say mat he has secured ire m tyn years than all the other tcoqgVeaeipeh wfi<J havf /oprefented the district since the war, and this is not said to disparage them but as a simple statement of the truth. He font inte congress a new and untrfed map. ^cfh fros# the fields, sent there by the fafljaw* ine^tperienpe^ ip legislation and not. skilled in the grf^e* of pifttpry, and it Vm not long Lf until this farmer-representative had something tangible to show. The railroads in the Strffce in the hands of receivers in the Federal courts had for years failed to pay their taxes 4pf the State, and he at once set in # jt4#}^c?S8*y legal machinery to meke them pa^ the?j? taxes just as the farmers have to do. He chme to the relief of the State, and it is JuM>wle<ke of all how ike ? sheriffs of some of the counties were imprisoned for attempting to collect }epgf^ Ipjyaful- and the railroads wcro uwuv w |M|MJ State treasury. Soon after his entranceinto congress he took up the mouw:;, \S0 dtoir huildme by the occupancy of wsrwem ijtoops. ftyp bill l^as been pending for years, and its friends had almost despaired of eYer getting jf passed* btft Latimer succeeded wbpr* pfcbpff failed, and the college got the money.

He has introduced a bill, which is now pending, providing for 1,500,000 acres of the public domain to be set apart for the . public schools of South Carolina lie has now a corps of surveyors in the State instructed by the agricultural department to make a soil survey of 1,000 square rpijes of territory to ascertain tire constituent elements of the soil with reference to its adaptability to the production of crops. He has also introduced an amendment to the agricultural bill appropriating $150,000 for experiments in road making. These matters are referred to to show the practical lines along which he has been working. These arc hut a portion of the benefits this farmer representative has secured for his people, and he comes now asking you to give him a wider $p1d for t^e display of his qseful(1088 tiredTif theTleg pullers. Candidatea Have Abqnt Reached the Limit of Generosity. The candidates for office are talking of organizing for the purpose of standing off the drink bracers and heelers, whose ranks are rapidly growing larger and whose demands are getting intolerable. These are palmy for tho class who feast and revel at the expense of the candidates. It is a fine occupation to get from office to office and brace the candidaies for a coin. The little spiel is given and the matter is presented in sqeh a. light that the candidates generally come up with the money, which finds its for a few minutes later into the till draw of a ; neighboring dispensary or blind tiger. The candisdtes are are growing poorer white bracers the are feedimg and revelling and having such a time as they have npt had since the last election. The class of professional bracers never or seldom do manual work or earn an honost livelihood. The extent of their manual, or more correctly pedal, labor is to climb a flight of steps and ask a candidate or some other easy victim for a dime or a quarter. Some of the class ask fqr the pripe of a keg, bqt these demands are not so frequent. It is j generally a dime or a quarter, while some of the heavier weights want a 1 half dollar. Manual labor does not agree with the bracers. They would Cease to exist if work was put upon Iheip. They can not bear the strajn Of labor an<f the yejry though of real Work shocks them. It is perhaps for this reason that they are never arrested1 and forced to do public work. Their idleness is encouraged by certain politicians and the hands or tfce police department aj?e tied in a way from enforcing the vagrant act by the knowledge that the braces k J .1 1 uv? uwuuomuuug wiuboiu Minority. These characters are of use some times to interests at heart more than these of candidates for offioe or the general public. It is on account of this condition that the candidates are beginning to of organizing for their own protection They are f<irpe4 ?o tbi? stand, otherwise is already toonumerrous for even thoge candidates who 1 will be elected, and in the ease of those WuC Putting up monev and will go down in defeat at ti? polls, the situation becomes alarming, All ' the candidates can net of course bo elected- 'Borne most be defeated and those who feel that their ohanoas are not certain, are* especeally anxious * ft* a halt to be called on the iacreas COUNTY CANDIDATES.

In ma?y (( cases, the meeting of the demands of i the bracers will require the salary of ? a wholp year, which, of course, the | candidates do not take so kindly to. | The troubles of the candidates lie c largely in not knowing how to dis- t Eense their charity. They would < ave no objection to setting up drinks j to a few of the workers, if they were c sure that the workers woujd stand by a them on the day of the election. But f here comee in the rnb. They may buy the bracers today and they will have to do it all over again totqorjrqw j and every d*7> including the d*y of * the election. K the candidates failed c to produce the necessary coin on the 1 day of the election, they would lose the votes to the candidates who will put up the money then, even if these candid***98 had not previously given the boys one cent. There is no do> pendenoe to be plaoed on the drink braeers. Some of them have not votes and if they have, they may be too drunk on the day of the election to vote. The candidates are taking all these things into consideration and they are reaching the conclusion that it Is afaout time to P*H the limit on the bracers and endeavor to have some peace of mind and rest from .?
