In The Rnce To Win.

Hon. G. G.. Featherstone of Laurens
spent yesterday in Spartanburg. He
is a candidate for governor in the
second race along with Hon. Cole
l.. Blease. of Newberry.
In speaking to a Herald represen-
tative yesterday Mr.. Featherstone
said that he was in the race to win
and was doing the very best he could
He is confident that with the loyalty
and energetic support of his friends
throuahout South Carolina he will be
elected governor.
This second race for the governor
ship is being conducted on high
plane. free from bitterness and dis
agreeable personalities This applies.
of course. to Spartanburg. The
friends and supporters of Mr.. Feath-
erstone are not villifying or denounc-
ing Mr.. Blease. and the same is true
as to MIR. Blease's friends. The
question resolves itself in to an issue
between two men and the personal
equation will do more to solve the
problem as to who will be South
Carolina's next governor than aught
else
The support of Mr.. Featherstone
and that of Mr.. Blease was pretty
evenly balanced in the first primary.
On last Tuesday out of the total vote
for Governors 0-Featherstone
reviewed 3.179 and Blease 3.151. So
each of them start in the second pri-
mary with a splendid support in
Spartanburg county, and the outcome
will be awaited with great interest.
Mr.. Featherstones friends are san
guine of his sweeping the county
with good-sized majority Spartan

Mr.. Blease with characteristic DO
litical shrewdness. is quick to direct
attention to the fact that in the first
primary he received more votes in
Mr.. Featherstones own county than
Mr.. Featherstone did 1t is a legiti-
mate political maneuver
The circumstances is not difficult to
understand. Mr.. Blease has made
several campaigns for state office.
He has built up throughout the State
af ollowing that is remarkably loyal
tribute to the strength of his per-
sonality. Nowhere is this Blease fol-
lowing more loyal than in the county
of Laurens. AS a candidate for gov
ernor Mr.. Blease could probably Doll
plurality in Laurens against any
opponent. His ability to do so would
be no reflection on hls opponent The
BleaSe vote i'm Laurens is a Blease
vote. 1t is not nti-Featherstone. Out
or 300 votes cast in that county
all but 22O went to 8lease and Feath-
erstone. and while Blease received 12O
votes more than Featherstone, Blease
did not get majority, according to
the returns at this writing
In Newberry, the home of Mr..
Blease, he being mayor Of the city or
that name, Br Blease received barely
lOO NoIeS III excess or majority and
Featherstone was the second candi-
date in that county.
The vote man receives in his own
county in race such as that of last
tuesday does not necessarily indicate
the respect in whicM he is held by his
neighborS: it may indicate his popu
larity but under conditions prevailing
in this campaign it more probably in
dicates the popularity OF the issue he
represents. There are few business
men in Columbia, NJ instance. who
stand higher than Mr.. Hyatt vet in
the recent election he received only
about 800 votes in this county, run
ming next to the last man on the
ticket in Richland.
For ten years Mr. Richards has been
sent to the legislature from Kersbow
by vote that has been marvellous.
he has never been in a second race
even. having been erected each time
on the first ballot. Yet i'm the elec-
tion on Tuesday. Mr.. Richards. so pres-
ent reports indicate, lacked 100 votes

For FeatherstOne,

1t Is not often that The Times feels
that Its duty to its constituency de-
mands that 1t take a stand in the pri-
mary election between men, but we
do think that 1t Is our duty to say as
emphaticaliy as possibly that every
citizen. regardless of his views on the
liquor question or on any other ques-
tion. should get out at once and work
as hard as he can and as effectively
as he can for G.. G. Featherstone for
governor. The returns were In the
nature OF a surprise to many people
who thought that they had their fin-
ger on the pulse of the public, Waive

AS Viewed In Anderson.

With the whiskey question out of
the way, the former opponents of Mr..
Featherstone argue, the issue is now
one of men instead of measures. And
knowing both Featherstone and Blease,
they argue that Featherstone is the
better and safer man to be elected
governor.
1t is blieved by many who under
stand State politics that Blease will
get few If any more votes in the
second primary than he got in the
first primary. They believe that
Mr.. Blease's record in political mat
ters I'm the State is so well known
that the great majority of the peo-
pie will not support him for govern
or.
We believe that Mr. Fcatherstone
lost many vote I'm the first primary
because of the overconfidence of his
friends. This was true here in An
derson county, where he was born
and raised. No particular work was
done for him, while Blease and Nc
Leod and the others had workers all
over the county. If the same work
had been done for Featherstone that
was done for the other candidates he
would have led easily. This was no
doubt true in other counties.
But we think it will be very diff
ferent in the second primary. The
friends of Mr.. Featherstone, and
those who are not particularly his
friends but who do not want to see
MIR. Blease elected governor, realize
now that they must bestir them
selves, and they will do so. They
will go to work. and Mr.. Feather
stone will be elected governor by a
safe and convincing majority.
AS the other papers have said, the
issue now is men and not measures.
The choice for governor is square
ly between Featherstone and Blease.

Seeking to Make Capital.

Great effort is being put forth to
make capital for Mr.. Blease of the fact
that Mr.. Featherstone failed to carry
his own county of Laurens. An anon
ymous circular. heralding the above
fact, is being sent broadcast over the
land. But there is not word in this
circular, nor have we seen one from
any other source, attacking the per-
sonal character of Mr.. Featherstone
or depreciating his ability. This makes
1t perfectly clear then that Mr.. Feath-
erstone's defeat has been due to other
than personal reasons. That he has
withstood criticism of his character
and his ability under such circum-
stances is pretty good evidence that
he is man entirely suited FOR the high
office he Winnsboro News &c

YOUR VOTE NEEDED.

In the election next Tuesday, there
can defeat Mr.. Featherstone and that
is the failure of his friends to- give
him their undivided support. This sup
port can be shown in two ways. First,
you should be present to cast your
ballot. Do not be falsely impressed
with the idea that your vote will! count
but little, when in reality it counts
everything.
Your vote may be the deciding one
and IL not so important as that GER
tainly 1t will aid greatly the chances
Of Mr.. Featherstone. Should the day
be disagreeable do not sit around the
house and trust to the others to elect
your friend. They may do the same as
you and should they-we1l the proud
old Palmetto State for once will droop
it's head In shame. From the other
States Will come nothing but ridicule
and you, men of Laurens, heretofore
proud of your own State and it's rec
ord, will be and ought to be ashamed
to claim the title of South Carolinian.
And why? Simply because you were
disloyal to the cause of right and dis
loyal to your State i'm failing to do
that which every true American is
morally bound to do, namely to cast
your ballot when the opportunity is
given.
Having realized that it is Just as
much sacred duty to vote as it is
for You to keep the Sabbath day holy.
then your next duty is to influence i'm
every way legitimate the vote of 9th
ers in the cause of just and untainted
government. You are not called upon
TO influence a man against his princi-
pies. The only principle involved in
this race is that of manhood They
both stand upon the same platform
and unless YOU are blind to reason. a
decision as to tho better is easily
reached
Tuesday, then, come. Your vote and
Your influence is nscded.
-
Practically every newspaper, daily,
semi-weekly and weekly published i'm
South Carolina, is for C.. c. Feather
stone and the majority of the voters
will see it the same way next Tuesday.
Men of Laurens lovers of county
pride, you now have the opportunity
of assisting the rest of the voters of
the State in selecting the next COVER

Can Blease Beat Featberstonc,

The Democratic primary election
yesterday for State officers resulted
in some surprises. All the wise"
ones were sure that Featherstone
would come first and Mcleod second.
with Blease not very strong third
Evans was not expected to get any
votes at all. Cansler was not thought
10 be as strong as ne was two years
APO.
But Blease turns up in the lead.
with Featherstone second and Mcleod
third Evans gets a good-siZed vote
and Lyon is cut by many who did not
vote for Evans. Cansler has big
lead and goes into the second primary
looking like a sure winner The com
bincd vote OF Blease and Mcleod. To-
cal option candidates, is more than
10000 greater than the combined
vote of Featherstone Richards and
Hyatt. prohibition candidates.
But the prohibition issue was not
clearly drawn Smith. prohibitiOnist.
for instance, ran away from Duvall
local optionist. Mcleod got many
votes on personal a,r other consid-
erations than his stand on the liquor
question.
How will the vote line up in the
second primary Will Blease repeat
the experience OF John Gary Evans.
who always bets big vote i'm the first
race, but is never able to increase it
substantially i'm the second? Or will
he combine with his own the bulk OF
McLeod's vote 1t is our opinion that
he will do neither; that he will con
siderably increase his own vote in the
second primary, but will not be able
to get near all of McLeod's vote, nor
much of Hyatt's and Richards. The
result. therefore. is likely to be a
close race between him and Feather
stone in the second primary. and the
friends of both will have to hustle.
Blease was a supporter to the last
ditch of the old State dispensary and
denied up to the closing of 1t and
probably still denies that there was
any corruption i'm 1t. The State dis
pensary is overwhelmingly unpopular
in this State, and only six of the coun-
ties retain even county dispensaries.
1t would seem a queer inconsistency
If its leading supporter. even in its
worst days, should oe elected COVER
nor within two years after it's abol-
isbment. Yet he is in fair way to
be elected and will DO elected unless
his opponents and the opponents Of
the dispensary idea get out and work
