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:;,

and today there 90 roatea in
operation in his district at a salary of
$600 per carrier, bringing $54,000
annually into the district and conferring
vastly improved mail facilities
upon the people.
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

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

iog ranks of drink braces. 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
