How 1t Works

The crowd was about equally divid-
ed as to candidates for governor, but
there were many Blease rooters from
neighboring towns and cities.-Bish-

The above is from an account of
the meeting at Laurens which was at
tended by the editorial writer men
toned So there were Jones suppor-
ters there too, the editor of the Lead
er and Vindicator going all the way
from Bishopville. The impression is
always sought ITO be made that only
Blease men attend from a distance.
The Jones men must be in a very
small minority throughout the coun-
try.

time is required for the maximum
pressure to be established after igni-
ton occurs it is necessary for ignition
to occur slightly before the piston
reaches the end Of the compression
stroke in order that the piston may be
started on the working stroke with
the greatest pressure acting on it:
If ignition occurs any after the end
of the compression stroke, a. very
great loss of power results. When it
is necessary to change the time of ig-
milton it cap best be done by trial, the
adjustment being made to produce the
greatest power in the engine. This is
very easily judged after a little prac-
tice.
Regulation of the gasoline valve in
the carburetor will vary with different
atmospheric conditions, and should
always be set to secure against great
est power.

THE END IN SIGHT.

Tonight will bring to close one
of the bitterest gubernatorial cam
paigns since Tillman was running for
reelection in 1892. There is, of
course, with Mr.. Jno. T. Duncan in
the race, a bare; possibility that a
second race may be necessary, but un-
less all political signs fail, this is a
factor which is hardly to be taken
into account.
Whatever the result of the election
today, we hope that the bitterness
which it has engendered will be a
thing of the past with the announce
ment of the result.

ted to be correct by the editor Of the
State, bear out the contention already
made elsewhere by The Herald and
News that Tillman has been misled
into giving his statement by people
who fought him most bitterly.
TILLMAN HAS PLAYED INTO THE
HANDS OF HIS ENEMIES OF OLD,
AND BY so DOING HAS HURT HIM
SELF AND HIMSELF ALONE.
The following is the card in the
Columbia State of Monday mcsning
refusing Governor Blease's request
for the publication of his statement
and admitting the correctness of the
kilograms:
"The State received last night from
Cole. L. Blease for publication an ar
ticle containing more or less accurate
copies of three private telegrams, two
sent by the editor of the State On Fri
day evening and one On Saturday, to
the Washington correspondent of the
State. The correspondent in WASH
ington was informed of the situation
in Spartanburg as reported to Column
bia. and as many reports had come
that Tillman was considering publish
ing the Ferguson letter, the Washing
ton correspondent was urged to get
the letter for publication. A great
news story of great political signifi-
cance was wanted.
"The State has nothing to conceal,
but it refuses the brazen request that
it make itself the vehicle for publish
ing private telegrams stolen during
transmission from the telegraph
company"
This matter gives an insight into the
methods which have been pursued in
the fight on Blease.

GONZALES AND TILLMAN.

The Herald and News publishes to-
day a statement from Governor
Blease in which he gives, upon relia-
BILE information, three telegrams from
the editor of the State to the States
Washington correspondent begging
for the Tillman letter to Ferguson and
saying that Blease's forces were going
to strike Tillmap on Tuesday.
The Tillman letter has been forth
coming.
In the Columbia State of Monday
morning Mr.. Gonzales does not deny
these telegrams, but refuses them
publication because he claims they
were private messages stolen during
transmission.
We do not know how Governor
Blease secured his information in re-
gard to the telegrams, but everybody
knows that there is always some dan
ger of some one learning the contents
of telegram.
Any insinuation that the governor
had anything to do with stealing
them is, of course, absurd.
The Blease supporters in Newberry,
at least, have been supporters of Till
man here, and had intended to sup
port him today.
These telegrams, practically admit

Tillman had no business in the CUB
ernatorial race in South Carolina this
year. His appeal for reelection was
largely based on the sentimental rea-
son that he desired to die in harness.
His service to the State would have
entitled him to that, though he did not
show Hampton the same consideration
which he asked at the hands of the
people of South Carolina. Now he has
done the same thing which he so
vigorously charged Hampton with
having done in the nineties, and for
which he so bitterly condemned Hamp-
ton. And he has done that which sew
eral times this month he has told the
people of South Carolina he ought not
to do and would not do.

meeting, where the stand broke down

BILE. two hundred Tillmanites from
Edgefeld had come to see the COVER

of the day was due to their pestiferons
presence"-this statement being car
ried in the News and Courier report
of that meeting, the report being writ
ten by a staff correspondent of the
News and Courier.
Tillman then was attacking the leg
islature as vigorously as Blease has
attacked the legislature in this cam
paign. A daily paper, in it's
report of the Winnsboro meeting Of
August 2, 1892, thus reported por-
ton of Tillman's speech:
Speaking of the driftwood legisla-
ture, he said lots of them were honest
but they were ignorant. He said that
before this agitation the people in
Fairfield had the dry rot. They were
a set of ignorant jackasses and were
led by the nose by town cliques and
would-be bosses He told them how

Ii hardly lies in the mouth Of Till
man to direct the attack upon Cover

in the morning newspapers of Satur-
day morning.

Senator Tillman said few days ago
that he did not think he ought to die
tate to the people of South Carolina
for whom they should vote for COVER
nor. He has evidently changed his
mind. Wonder 5That made him think
the people needed a dictator last Sat-
urday morning, when only few days
prior he did not think it proper for
him TO set himself up as dictator?

Our candid judgment is that the at
tempted dictation of Tillman, coming
at the time and in the manner it did,
and coming condemned out of Till
mans own mouth, has acted as a
boomerang which will make the anti
Blease forces wish it had never seen
the light of day.

TILLMAN AND BLEASE.

In the face of Tillman's stab, direct
ed at Governor Blease On the eve OF
the primary, after the campaign for
governor had closed at Greenville, it
is interesting to go back some twenty
wears and look at Tillman's attitude
when he was a candidate for re-elec-
ton to the Office of governor; when he
was making bitter attacks upon his
enemies" and when the newspapers
were making bitter attacks upon him.
Tillman says if Blease is. reelected
the State will be disgraced, and that
is exactly what was being heralded
all over the State and all over the
world in regard to Tillman in 1892.
They tell us now that practically all
the preachers are against Blease, and
a vigorous attack is being made upon
the Rev. DR.. J. A. Sigh because he
has had some kind things to say Of
the present governor. If Tillman will
recall, the preachers were also against
him in 1892, and the Rev. DR.. Sigh
was then supporting Tillman, as he is
now supporting Blease.
Because Tfllman has seen fit to
make an eleventh-hour attack upon
Blease, however, some of Blease's op-
ponents who have always fought Till
man, and who would now be delighted
at nothing more than to have both
his political scalp and the political
scalp of Blease dangling at their
belts, will make great hero of Till
man until after the primary.
The reporter for the News and
Courier thus spoke of the Florence
campaign meeting of June 80, 1892:
"The Florence meeting deserves the
palm for confusion and disorder. The
previous meetings hardly compare,
and the most radical lovers of the
sensational had cause for delight. Of
profane words and harsh assertions
there was free and unlimited coinage
and the place of meeting was for a
time really converted into a, scene of
battle. AS for the governor, he dis
tinguished himself. 1t is understood
that his temperature was too high for
the thermometer to register"
1t was at this Florence meeting that
Tillman was called down" by a
preacher on the stand. The corre-
"a
spondent of the News and Courier
says:
"The Rev. S. M. Richardson advanc-
ed toward the governor, and, pausins,
said: Gov. Tillman, do you believe in
a God? Governor Tillman: l do and
trust in Him. Mr. Richardson: Then
you should apologize for your express
sion.'
Then, as now, the newspapers we're
charging that the applause was from
foreigners" imported to do the hol-
lering, and the charge was that the
imported foreigners" were Tillman-
ties. They charged that at the Helena
