About $500 people, including many

meeting in Newberry on Tuesday,
which was held on the Lewis lot, out
east Main street, about a mile from
the public square. While the big crowd
was enthusiastic, giving Governor

"To His Excellency, Hon. Cole. l..
Rlease, Governor of South Carolina
Dear SIR: In reply to your letter of
July goth, 1912. Desire to say, the
nan h:ld under arrest at McAllister,
Oklahoma, was not w. E. Perry and
that no person or persons whatsoever
attempted to influence me improperly
for or against this man and that it
could not have been done had it been
tried.
l knew my duty, went to McAllister
determined to do it, and did it. For
six years | have been especially anx-
ious to capture this man, and would
let no consideration deter me should
the opportunity offer. The rumor is
without foundation.

proceeded to McAllister, Oklahoma,
and upon arriving there, he found the
party who had been arrested under
the name of W. E. Perry, for having
killed the son of one Luther Boozer, at
Chester, S. c., some years ago; that
he went there at the request of the
said Luther Boozer and the Chester

very small per cent. of the crowd,
however, was from beyond the borders
of the county.
The speeches of the gubernatorial
candidates below speak for themselves.
A report of the speeches of the other
candidates will be found in another
column.
County Chairman Dominick said he
was glad to see such large and rep
resentative audience from a county
that could boast that all three of the
gubernatorial candidates were natives
of Newberry. He also welcomed cor
daily those from adjoining counties,
who. he said were South Carolinians
and had a right to be here. He said
it was unnecessary to ask a Newberry
audience to be orderely, and nothing
less was expected of the strangers
within Newberry's gates. He said Or
der would be preserved, but he hoped
the ample arrangements which had
been made for enforcing order would
prove to have been unnecessary. He
also asked the candidates to be re-
spectful to the audience, remembering
that they were before crowd of good
Newberry citizens-as good people as
there were in the State of South Caro-
lima.

Gov. Blease's Address.

Gov. Blease's Address.
Governor Blease began his address
by a reference to the card which the
then ministers of Newberry had pub
lished against him in the campaign of
four years ago, and asked where they
were today. Where" he said, "are
some of the people who have stood
upon the street corners of Newberry
and cursed and abused me and tried
to keep me from going forward in the
world and making a success for my
self and a success for my county?
Where are some of them today? Ia
what condition are their brains and
tongues, and in what financial condi.
ton are some of them today? AS for
me, thank God, l stand here today
as governor of the proudest State in
the American Union" He said, with
the exception Of little throat trouble,
he stood here healthy, strong and ro-
bust, in sight almost of the steeple of
the church where he was taught to
say, 'The Lord is my shepherd, shall
not want" and in sight of the old chin
ney which holds the fireplace where
he was taught to say, ''Now / lay me
down to slsep," and he said he stood
as the representative of his people, as
one who had succeeded, as one who
had written for the first time on the
records of South Carolina the name of
a Newberry boy as her chief executive.
"'They' have said much" said Gov
ernor Blease. "Who is they with
their ISLANDERS and vituperation? They
said that the blind tigers of Newber-
ry built Ed Jones, Ira B. Jones's
brother, a dewlling house. They said
that Sam B. Jones, another brother,
got so badly in debt that they closed
him UP with a distress warrant be-
cause he wouldn't pay his store rent.
| They said that Ira B. Jones got rich
on a township bond deal of railroads
o,sr in Lancaster county. They said
| that Ira B. Jones made fortune in G
transaction at the Hale gold mine over
! in Kershaw county. If you are going
to take they say then l am willing
| to put the record of the Blease family
against the, Joneses any day that God
lets his sun rise and lets the honest
people be the judge"
The governor said he had lived in
Newberry AZ years, and there wasn't
man in it that could present him
with bill for one five cents that he
owed him. He had always paid his
honest debts, he said, and owed moth
ing to any man except to love him as
brother and man He had lived
among these people and they knew
him when he was boy working in
his fathers livery stable, and there
he had unhitched and cared for the
horses of many of those present on
| this occasion. what hurts the other
crowd" he said, sis that little boy
with a little cheap straw hat, with a
little homespun shirt, witha little pair
of copperas breeches, and with pair
of brogan shoes, has walked out of
that livery stable at Newberry and has
taken the patent-leather, shoes, the
boiled shirt, and the frock-coat aristo-
cracy, and whipped them to a finish,
and they can't help it,

Mr.. Hugh Renwick were as fellows:
