/ have consented to them. Moral sentiment
must be aroused and such a public opinion
| created which will demand new laws IL
| necessary. The evils cannot be abolished
until the demand for them is abolished.
Let the press, the pulpit and the people do
all they can TO raise the standard OF mo-
rality.
Harry Emmons endorsed and commended
the work of the Law and Order Society.
That this Is government OF law and order
IS only true In limited sense. There have
peen elections In the city where men who
| counted the ballots determined the result.
Thls has been broken up. II wouldn't do,
however, to put too much confidence in
the correctness Of returns in the nomina-
tion elections Of either party. The people
| must enforce the laws. for they will not en-
force themselves. Boss rule follows II
they do not II there was ever a time
when the voice Of the people should be
heard against political corruption 1t is now.
The society should take some notice of
this. There is no security for the welfare
OF this city IL the law-making power be-
longs by right of purchase to men or a
set Of men. This evil cannot be remedied
by the politicians OF either party. Let
this society cover the whole state and
make vote buying and vote selling too
odious to be practiced.
Bishop Coleman was next called upon
He explained that he had been detained
until the present on account of having an
other engagement. He expressed his SYM
pathy for the society 1t Is an urgent
matter which calls these people together.
It is something which concerns the life of
the country. This crusade Is not for the
mere protecting Of few. but for the bene-
iit OF the weak. The virtuous man need
know but little Of law. for he is ruled by
his own conscience. 1t is for the purpose
OF making 1t easier to do right and harder
to do wrong that this society was organ
ized Some fall to operate with this socie-
ty from pure cowardlce and because they
are afraid that they will lose some trade.
Cases of clear violations of lay cannot be
pushed because some one Is afraid Of
losing some money or losing votes. There
are better things In this world than
money.
Citizen and gentleman are not synony-
nous terms, though they should be- The
time should come when they would mean
the same. Bishop Coleman then alluded
to the saloon question. That is not the
only work OF the society, 1t Is doing much
in other lines, particularly in the work of
seeaipg out gambling saloons. Bishop
Coleman Concluded by alluding to the york
In keeping down the number Of saloons.
Political corruption Is generally planned
In the saloon. What Is needed Is to I'M
plant in the minds OF every man, woman
and child an adherence OF evil Law OF
itself cannot accomplish its own object.
Back Of the law mus be strong, good men
to enforce the law. Let those whose duty
1t is to enforce the law understand that
public opinion is back of them.
Bishop Coleman said he was glad that
all had come together for good despite all
differences OF opinion and hoped that all
such differences would soon pass away.
Mayor Shortlldge then thanked those
present for their attendance

DIR. POPEs SENSATIONAL CLAIMS

Tho Defeated Independent Candidate for
Governor Declares That Frauds Mt the
Polls We're Committed by the Commands
of Governor Tillman and Senator Irby.
COLUMBIA, s. c., Nov. es.-In a petition
to the general assembly asking for an in
vestigation of the recent election which
DIR. Sampson Pope, the defeated Inde-
pendent candidate for governor of South
Carolina, filed yesterday, charges are made
that United States Senator Irby and Gov
ernor Tillman instigated frauds to secure
the election of John Gary Evans, the Till
man candidate.
The petition asserts that the recent stats
election was Illegal, as 1t was held under
the election law Of 1892, the provisions of
which are declared to be in direct violation
OF the state and United States constitu-
tions. 1t is alleged that the polling places
were barricaded and obstructed SO that
thousands OF Pope voters were prevented
from voting; that managers unlawfully
rejected many Pope votes; that managers
fraudulently abstracted Pope votes from
the boxes and substituted Evans ballots.
and that supervisors of elections gave oub
thousands of illegal registration tickets to
Evans voters
The petition declares: "These frauds in
Limitations and acts of violence commit
ted by supervisors and managers and par
tisans of John Gary Evans were commit
TED In very many cases at the immediate
instance of county chairmen of the Demo-
cratic party, who in turn received their in
structions and orders for such action from
John L. NJ. Irby, chairman Of the Demo
cratic executive committee and United
States senator, and from Benjamin r.
Tillman, governor Of the state of South
Carolina, whose sworn duty 1t was to see
that laws be faithfully executed, but who
so far from doing 30 in some instances in
structed said county chair1nen to call to
their aid in executing these frauds, acts Of
intimidation and violence sherlffs, con.
stables and armed forces of the state II neo-
essary for their accomplishment"
Request Is made that this contest Of
election Of governor be determined by le-
gal procedure. Accompanying this peti.
tion was Il concurrent resolution that Dr.
Pope be heard before each body of the
general assembly; that he have witnesses
summoned to prove his allegations, and
that pending the contest returns for gov
ernor shall not be opened and tabulated.
