Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1902-09-03

THE esteemed Columbia State is op-
posing John Gary Evans on the alleged
ground Of unf1tness for a seat in the
United States senate. Processing as we
do non-partizanship as between Messrs.
Latimer and Evans, we cannot claim
any concern in the result Of The States
fight, but in the interest of consistency
we would like to ask our contemporary
a question. The State claims credit for
the defeat Of Colonel J. H. Tillman and
cites Colonel Tillman, in whose veracity
it claims to have no confidence, as a
witness. Our contemporary claims that
it fought Tillman before the first pri-
mary purely on the ground Of his per-
sonal character, without prejudice to
the other candidates. Now what we
want to know Is this: If The State
knew John Gary Evans's character to
be on a par with that Of Tillman, why
did it not also fight him before the first
primary so as to bring the second race
between one Of the Conservative candi-
dates and Mr.. Latimer? Was 1t be-
cause it has been for Mr.. Latimer all
the while and did not want to be put in
the somewhat embarrassing position of
having to support him against Colonel
Elliott, Colonel Johnstone, Mr.. Hemp
hill or Mr.. Henderson? If this was not
the reason, we would be interested to
have a better one, because anyway we
look at the matter we find ourselves
very much puzzled.
