WHAT OTHERS SAY OF HIM.
Comments on the Candidacy of DIR.
W. H. Zimmerman, of Batesburg,
S. c.. for Governor.

From the Lexington Dispatch: Dr.
". II. Zimmerman, the most promi-
nent Candidate for Governor before
the people today, was in town Mon
day.
The doctor is hale and hearty and is
fully identified with the people Of Lex
ington among whom he has cast his
! lot for veal or woe. He is doing q
good part ip the development Of Ley
ington by the investment Of bis brains,
energy and capital and Lexington ap-
preciates his efforts.
The Batesburg Advocate says Of the
above. The Dispatch is exactly right
in the above case. There is not . man
living in South Carolina who would
add more honor and reflect, greater
credit to the State than Dr: ": Il.
Zimmerman. In every department
of life, he has acted his part well, and
stands before the people OF this State.
as the noble l?0n&a whose best
thought and time bas been given to
his people. II there are those who
doubt the fact OF DR.. Zimmerman be-
ing formidable candidate, they had
better change their way Of thinking.
lie has friends in every section, who
are among the leading people in infu-
ence. We are banking on Dr. Tim
norman as our next Governor.
From another: Both Of the above
apers are right when they say that
DR.. Zimmerman is an upright. clean,
able and pure man. He would reflect
the highest credit upon the state as it's
chief Executive upon himself and upon
his past life. We know and have
heard nothing in his life which can be
urged against him and there is much
that is honorable and creditable. We
would be satisfied if be were elected.
From the Edgefeld Advertiser: W.
H. Zimmerman, President of the First
National Bank Of Ratesburg was in
Edgefeld Monday, attending the An
nual Meeting Of the Stockholders of
the Farmers Bank. Though DR.. Tim
norman has moved beyond the confn-
eS OF Edgefeld County, she is proud Of
his clean public and official record.
DR.. Zimmerman is an avowed candi-
date for Gubernatorial honorS.
From the Edgetield Chronicle: An
old and honored friend, the Hon. W.
H. Zimmerman of Batesburg has Writ
ually announced himself as a candi-
date for Governor of South Carolina.
Edgefeld loves him well, and well
comes him cordially into the field.
Edgefeld has every cause to love and
honor W. II. Zimmerman. He has
served well and wisely in many public
positions with clean hands and patri-
otic heart, And as he has served
Edgeheld. 50 he has served South Car
Olina.
From the Edgefeld Monitor: DR..
Zimmerman has announced his inten-
tion to be a candidate for Governor in
the primary this year. DR. Zimmerman
is we'll known in this State as cul-
tured, refined and able man; not only
this, he has reputation as being one
of the safest and best business men
and financiers in the State, He has a
record of many years of public service
which is clean and without stain-up-
right, honest and fearless. He will no
doubt make close race.
From the Bamberg Times: The
BaUesburg Advocate announces, DR..
w. II. Zimmerman of that place who
was formerly Lieutenant Governor
and late State Treasurer, has entered
the race for Governor and that he will
be in to the finish. DR.. Zimmerman
is a good man and no doubt will re-
ceive large vote.
From Correspondent Of the Flor
ence Times: We have just reviewed
the record Of eminent services rem
dered his County and State in various
responsible positions by DR.. Thinner
man, our former State Treasurer. We
are not surprised to hear calls for him
to the Governors chair. Fully quail
fed by intelligence and experience,
faithful and efficient as his services
have proved, with character above
suspicion and reproach, why should he
not be called to this high office, and
fill it in that high-toned, dignitied
manner that characterizeS him and
fits him for the Office Of Chief Magis-
trate.
The Enterprise: Among all the
public men of South Carolina, we
know of none who have more OF the
sterling qualities that so to make up
real character in vigorous manhood
than can be found in DR.. W. II. Tim
norman, former State Treasurer.
You may find better orators, better
looking men and may be more pro-
found scholars, but none with more
character If character is to be meas
med by the injunction, do unto
others as you would have Others do
