II < waste OF time to try to max

It is waste OF time to try TO make
some people be reasonable or see things
from 4 reasonable standpoint. Some
have listened to Mr.. Patterson charge
that the Governor paid for county papers
out of the contingent fund. They then
note that most of the county papers are
friendly to McSweeney and Jump to the
conclusion that this friendship was
bought for dollar apiece. They 1or-
GOT that McSweeney for years has been
a member of the State Press .Associa-
ton and ut its meetings has become
personally acquainted with the editors
of the various papers. From personal
contact they have found him to be Il

agree with Gov McSweeney on the

selecting untried men simply because
they agree with us on this or any other

to believe that McSweenev. as Cover

has no legislative authority. and can
neither change an old law nor pass

The South Carolina Interstate
and West Indian Exposition, to
take place in Charleston, is now
far beyond the mythical stage
and is an assured fact. Already
the business pulse of Charleston
is quickening in happy anticlpa-

of this grand project to advertise
South Carolina's resources and
to give an impetus to an already
stirring business revival through
out Carolina.

We heartily agree with those
newspapers who are condemning
mud-slinging among the candi-
dates for State offices, and wher-
ever a candidate steps aside
from the public questions to in
dulge in abuse and vituperation,
or throwing out slanderous hints
he should be promptly called
down and prohibited from con-
tinuing his speech. The candi-
date who undertakes to ride into
Office by manufacturing suspi-
cions, is unworthy the confidence
of the people and should be made
to feel his littleness. Before the
people became educated politi-
cally there was some prospect of
fooling them, but now the can
didate who thinks he is fooling
the people is only fooling him.

The attempts to cripple the
influence Governor McSweeney
has merited with the people are
dismal failures. No Governor
since the enactment of the dis
pensary law has a clearer rec
ord than has the present Chief
Executive. 1t is utter folly for
his opponents to try to make the
people believe that Governor
McSweeney has been Indifferent
towards the enforcement of the
dispensary law. Wherever it
was possible he has caused Of
tenders of the law to be prose
cuted and raided: that there ex-
lists blind tigers in Charleston is
no fault of his. tits the fault of
the people of that city, who are
almost unanimously opposed to
the dispensary law. Governors
Tillman, Evans and Ellerbe did
not prevent the existence of
blind tigers in that city even
with the aid of d metropolitan
police. Why: 1t was an impos-
sibility, and it is impossible to
enforce a prohibition law in the
same city because the population
favor the use and sale of stimu
lants. The records show that
Governor McSweeney has en-
forced the law in a business-like
manner and with so little fric-
ton that not one drop of blood
has been shed in the execution
of the law since he took tne oath
of Office. The people will not be
hoodwinked by designing politi-
clans, and they will consider well,
before they repudiate a man who
has merited their confidence and
endorsement.

, SECONDHAND STORY.

In one of his first speeches in this
campaign \ Howard Patterson, Esq.
charged that Gov. McSweeney patro-
nized blind tigers and drank liquor at
the Merchants and Manufacturers club
in Columbia. He gave as his authority
Mr.. Werner OF the Oconee News. Gov.
McSweeney denied the charges en-
phaticallv. Now comes Mr.. Vernon
and says that he did not know of his
own knowledge about the charge but
he had heard several men say so. Mr..
William Barnwell of Columbia was one,
7. C. Duncan was another and man
named Jones who once lived in Green
wood but is now in Alabama. Mr.. Dun
can writes that once in conversation he
remarked that he had seen a copy OF
Gov. McSweeney's Message to the last
General Assembly before it was read.
1t was exhibited by a gentleman TO
whom McSweeney gave 1t in one OF
the clubs. He had never met Cover
nor McSweenev and could say nothing
about the blind tiger patronage OF his
own knowledge. Mr.. Barnwell was
Just as indefinite in an interview pub

The South Carolina Baptist. publl-
shed at Greenwood. may be prohlbl-
ton paper and a well-wisher of Col.
Hovt. and as denominational paper 1t
NAV be constrained to make nominal
opposition to the diSpenSary: but our
reading OF an editorial in its issue OF
last Wednesday inclines us to believe
that while embracing the Colonel 1t IS
also seeking TO smite him under the
fifth rib.
This is from the Columbia
State. We are prohibitionlst OF the
strictest sect. and are up to none OF the
tricks CT that paper. The State en-
braces Col. Hovt with the hope OF
squeezing the life out of prohibition,
and it would sacrifice him at any cost,
il bv doing so it could only carry its
point. Why is The State eSpousing
Col. Hoyt's candidacy: Is it through
an honest purpose: The State would
hardly claim to be a prohibition news
paper. Our concern. as expressed IN
that editorial. was the fear that the
liquor policy held by The State news
paper would prevail in the election OF
the prohibition ticket. We only meant
to warn Col. Hoyt and the friends OF
prohibition against such pretended
friends. We must carry the State for
prohibition. but we must avoid unholy
alliances CT and have ourselves in such
a position when it is done, that we can
hold what we have gained. This will
never be done if the Columbia State
can help itself-The South Carolina

The State campaign opened at Or
angeburg last Wednesday and since
that time several meetings have been
held in the lower counties. The fight
is on in earnest between prohibition
and dispensary and strong efforts will
be brought to bear by the friends OF
each. as the election will doubtless de-
eide the fate of one or the other. The
greatest interest seems to be centered
in the race between Hoyt and McSween-
ey and both have so far made q clean
fight. Patterson has endeavcred to
create an interest by mudslinging but
has lost more than he has gained. Gary
has conducted his campaign on 4 high
plane and has doubtless gained some
friends. Mr. Hoyt is making a good
fight and is receiving the hearty sup
port of the ProhibitionistS, and If hard
work counts he will make a good show
when the votes are counted in August.
McSweeney is making the race on his
record, and while Bunk" Patterson is
aSsailing him on every side. he is max
inga good impression with the people
over the State. So far he has been the
favorite at all the meetings and this Is
a point in his favor, as the other can
didates seem to be making a combined
fight against him His chances of re-
election grow brighter as the campaign
progresses. S.-Honea Path Chronicle.

WILLING TO CONSULT WORTH.
But Mr.. WOODRUFF SAYS THE EX-SENATOR
CANNOT DOMINATE IN KINGS.

Lieutenant Governor Woodruff returned to
Brooklyn yesterday from his summer home in the
Adirondacks and will remain there until the Legs-
lature opens. He Will take active part in the
conferences preceding the organization Of the Kings
County Republican General Committee and, ii is
understood will not countenance an effort which
is being made 10 prevent the reelection of Walter
Is. Attermury as chairman of that committee.
Regarding the possible reelection of Michael J.
Dady chairman Of the Executive Committee
Mr. Woodruff said that he could speak. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Dady will return from Mexico
sooner than he had expected in order that he may
consult Mr. Woodruff in regard to the advisability
of his seeking reelection.
Concerning the rumors that Jacob Worth has
ambitions again to become a power in Kings
County politics, Mr.. Woodruff made the following
remark
should be glad to consult Mr.. Worth concern
ing any affairs pertaining to the county if I
thought he would come forward in spirit of con-
tribution and not in spirit CT dominance. He can
not dominate the organization.
