Tame For Grace.
Manning Times.

Manning Times.
: The much heralded exposure from
Mayor Grace if Governor Blease
would release him from confidential
conversation, is out today in the News
and Courier. 1t is tanner than we ex-
pected from a man who has given in
dications Of desperation in an effort
to destroy the man that has disap-
pointed him. It is pitiful to witness
the spectacle that Mayor Grace has
made of himself, even though he is
telling the truth. He has denonstrat-
ed his willingness to go to any length
to accomplish his purpose. A man like
this would be acceptable to the "gun
men" who recently figured in the Ros-
enthal murder in New York. Grace's
latest utterance will not appeal to
those who are opposed to Blease, as
they must realize that he is OVERRIDING
his part of the act. He knows too
much, he was Johnny on the spot
whenever there was anything doing
where Blease was concerned, and was
even on hand when Tillman was
sweating blood in Washington. He
was here and everywhere, regular
sleuth on Blease's trial. Those who
believe the statements Of a character
like this are welcome to, but we do not
believe there are many who will.

II The Herald and News believed
that Cole. L. Blease was a CRATER, it
would not defend him. If The Herald
and News believed that Cole. L. Blease
was CRATER, it would Immediately
and as prominently as within it's pow
er lay, repudiate him.
Fielder and his detectives seem to
have secured the country in the effort
to secure proof that he is a CRATER.
Il they have offered a scintilla of
l1oof worthy the name, we have fail
cd to observe it in the mass Of SOCIAL
ed testimony a committee of the
South Carolina legislature went over
to Augusta, at the beck and call of
Fielder, to secure, because Fielder was
corfessedly afraid to come within the
borders of South Carolina.
The Columbia State, one of the bit
terest partisan newspapers in circu-
lation in the world today, has dou-
ble-leaded editorial leader, headed
''The Dropping Palmetto" That edi-
torial concludes with this paragraph.
Detective Burns declares he found
more corruption in South Carolina
than he has found in any State of the
Union; that he has become personally
interested and is going to get to the
bottom of everything, and have testi-
mony to present to a jury. Will he
do it? Burns has an extraordinary
record of successes in those cases
that he has undertaken after investi-
CATION, but the presentations made at
Augusta are more in the nature of in
ferences to support moral conviction
than evidence to prove anything in a
court of law. The matter brought out
does not fix criminality upon the gov
ernor. of South Carolina"
If the matter brought out "does not
fix criminality upon the governor Of
South Carolina" then who has caused
the palmetto to droop? Is it the gov
ernor, upon whom Fielder, in his
venom, with his .cohort of sleuths, has

Every now and then some newspa-
per displays under flaming headlines
that some former supporter of Gov
ernor Blease is now against him. As
a correspondent suggests, that is now
an easy way to achieve fame and to
become a hero-to say you were for
Blease two years ago, it makes no diff
ference whether you were or not, but
that you are against him now. Very
few people are misled by this old
campaign trick. 1t is an effort to try
to couhteract Bleaseis increased and

Mr.. S. E. Boney, in the News and
Courier, in speaking of the State cam

an unusually large crowd of "for-

loads were brought over from Lancas-
ter" etc. Is it charged that the sup
porters of Judge Jones are going
around to the various meetings to hol-

so enthusiastic for Blease that three

''It is amusing" says the Manning
Times, ITO witness the antics of those
newspapers which a few months ago
were denouncing John P. Grace as if
he were a pickpocket. They predict
ed all kinds of shame upon Charles
ton did he becope its chief executive,
but, now they are falling upon his
neck with Joy every time he comes out
in the newspapers and denounces
Gov. Blease."
It would be amusing, had it not
passed the stage of amusement and
gone into the realm of the vile and
filthy.

In the Columbia State, of August 3,
in a report of a speech delivered by
Judge Ira B. Jones at Heath Springs,
it is stated:
Judge Jones stated to the audience
that in the absence of his adversary
he would not criticise his administra-
ton"
Soon after Judge Jones announced
his candidacy he began a campaign
tour of the State, and, according to
the published reports of his speeches,
Bleaseism and Blease's administra-
tion, and the anarchy" which. he said
Bleaseism led to, were his themes.
Blease was not present.
Governor Blease on several stumps
has stated that he would not attack
his opponents in their absence.
Is Judge Jones learning from Gov
ernor Blease the ethics of campaign
ing?

John P. Grace has suddenly become
a hero in the estimation of some news
papers which. were certain that Char
lesion would go to the demnition bow
vows if Grace was elected mayor of
Charleston. He has become thus a
hero in their eyes because of his mall
ice and spite against Governor
Blease, the filth emanating from
which is served as dainty morsel by
certain newspapers. But the people
of South Carolina will not stand for
his kind of foul stuff.

Certainly there was nothing which

no need for reply by Governor

which was given this stuff by the
newspapers, might have been miscon-
strued.

OF horror, the Greenwood Daily Jour

alleged order from the Associated

B;ease. But the Journal printed the
