idea of the motives that should
acpuate any man who aspires to public
Office. No man should offer as candl-
date for an Office of trust unless he is
determined to discharge the duties of
the Office honestly and fearlessly,
without bias or hope of reward save in
to the consciousness of a duty faithful.
II performed and the appreciation OF
the people. He said he hoped not to
see the day that the possession
of money would be an embargo upon
election to Office. He has such con-
fdence in the people of South Caro-
lima that he had no hesitation in
declaring that he did not believe
there was a white man in the State
to whom currupt omce-seeker would
dare offer money for his vote.
He opposes trusts and the exact1on
of corporate greed, and favors laws to
restrict and regulate all corporations.
He is friendly to capital and invites
it to come amongst US for investment.
But capital should be satisfied with
the projection of the just laws OF
our State. We should see that capital
is protected In all its rights and we
should give it exact justice.
AS to g Commercial Democracy, he
said he had no respect for the man or
men who would come among us In the
disguise Of Democrat and preach Re
publicanism and the. doctrines fostered
by the trusts and. monopolies. Such
"a man had no moresright amongst our
people than the midnight assassin.
He wouId have nothing to! say about
our junior Senator, for he is dead
politically.
He discussed the question of the
relation Of labor and capital and the
Horse Greek lockout as an outgrowth
OF this matter. He faFors good roads
and believes in building them by
township taxation, so that the people
of each community shall have the right
TO say how much they shall pay for
building roads.
He would not take away single
brick or stone from any college IN
the State, and favored supporting all
Of these Institutions with Tberality,
but was especially in favor Of the I'M
provemenBs of the common schools.
He wants to see the common schools
so improved and developed that every
white boy and girl in the State can
get a good education without ever
going to college.
He does not believe in taxing white
man TO educate negro children. EIhe
