Lieutenant Governor Mcleod Endorsed
by Home People.

On Wednesday afternoon, July IL,
an enthusiastic meeting or the cltlZens
of Bishopville and surrounding coun-
try was held at Woodward Grove for
the purpose OF advancing the candl-
dacy of the Hon. Thos. G. Mcleod
for the office Of Governor. The people
of Lee county want to show the Demo-
cratic voters of this state what they
think OF their home candidate. The
followine resolution was adopted and
a committee of five appointed to place
the same before the Democratic vo-
ters Of the state at the expense OF the
meeting:
we, the citizens of Bishopville and
surrounding territory, the home or the
Honorable Thos. G. Mcleod, candidate
for Governor, do hereby In meeting
assembled, voluntarily and without
his knowledge or solicitation, heartily
recommend him to the democratic vo-
ters of South Carolina, as In every
way competent and capable to fill the
responsible duties of Governor. His
ability is unquestioned and unques-
tionable: his character is irreproach-
able; his simple word is as binding as
his bond; always true to principle,
honor and integrity; his whole life is
an unanswerable argument to the
faintest whisper against his upright
ness of character, his sobriety and his
untarnished reputation.
Shortly after leaving college, ne
lost his father, and taking charge OF
his fathers estate, farm and mercan-
tile business, he managed 1t with
great business, judgment and succeed
ed in paying off large indebtedness,
at the same time he was a father to
his brothers and sister, educating them
and today they look up to, love and
respect him as a father. He has good
Judgment and excellent executive
ability. his election can be no mistake
and we bespeak for him the support
of the democracy of South Carolina.
AS a representative for two years
as a senator for four years, he always
stood for those things which were Tor
the best interest Of the people, and as
Lieutenant Governor for four years,
he was absolutely fair and impartial
in his rulings and presided with digni-
ty and ability and we firmly believe
that his record there made entities
him to that promotion which Is al.
ways accorded an honest and faithful
public servant.

Mr.. Henry Makes Exclamation.

To the Editor Of The Columbia state:
In last Sundays State the report or
my speech at Lancaster, from quo
tation of my argument as to now 10
secure a repeal of the 14th and 18TH
amendments, does me great inJus-
tice. 1 saw it first today. 1t put me
in the attitude of advocating return
ing the negro to politics and once.
How could taking away his citlzen-
ship put him into politics or office?
That statement OF my position
make such a charge against me self
contradictory.
Anyone who advocates bringing the
negro into polititics is the common en-
emy of both races, and more especial
ly of the negro.
Such a one might be lynched the
first time he opened his mouth. He
would be instigating racial war,
which would amount to the eXtermina-
ton Of the negro. History, nature
and God in all ages and In all places
have made the negro the burden and
ward of the white man. BY taxing
away his citizenship, l want him TO
take his place in law where these
three have placed him. Any other
place is dangerous alike to him and
us. and cruel to him. He belongs to
a tribal or paternal government. The
application of white mans law to
him is cruel. All the evils which ever
come to the negro have come out OF
the effort to make of him citizen or
a republic. The best thought OF MS
own race says for him to keep out OF
politics. To educate negro as a
white man is cruel to him. Booker
Washington says to educate him in
dustrially.
I want the nation to turn over the
making of citizens out of him to the
states. Hands off. We will do him
right. We are his best friends and ne
knows it, We are the best and only
Judges when and how he shall become
a citizen. The north is beginning 10
realize that the race question is To-
cal matter. The supreme court has
in the Jim Crow car and election
cases practically said it is local mat
ter.
In retaining the 14th and 18th
amendments the north holds the tall
of a sleeping lion and don't under
stand the lion. We are inside with
the lion and they outside Of the cage.
In justice to my position, I ask you
to publish this Thanking you in ad-

Safety of Both
Principal and
Interest

Is the chief consideration in making
investments; promises Of a high rate
of interest may look good from pro-
fit point of view; but you will want
your interest and better still you will
want the principal.
You may want it the day it is due
and you may want it quick, something
good in sight that will pay many more
times the larger interest.
This is one of the many advantages
of having your money in the savings
department of this bank or on one of
our Certificates of Deposit" You
get the money the very moment you
need it:--four per cent interest and
the same compounded four times a
year.
