BLEASE rs CONDEMNED.
Better Glass in South Carolina Re-
grets His Utterances.

COLUMBIA. S. c., December Public
opinion OF the better class throughout the
state generally condemned yesterday such
utterances as those OF Gov. Cole l. Blease
in the governors conference. where he
Endorsed lynching and promised acquies-
cence In mob violence His action was
no surprise, however. The governor al
ways had conducted his campaigns for
office on that basis. one OF his most wide
ly known declarations being, II stand by
my friends
That policy he had pursued. his op-
he had taken office there had been a
great increase in the number of lynch
ings. they showed by statistics
In the last democratic primary Gov.
Blease was renominated by a majority
of about 900 in a total of 10000 votes.
1t was charged freely that there had
been ballot-box stuffing, but the state
executive committee announced itself I'M
able to find proof Of frauds sufficient 10
throw out the nomination.
Gov. Blease's declaration that he would
enter the Senate in 1915 was taken as
meaning that he intended to run for the
democratic nomination for senator in OPP
position to Senator c. Z. Smith. whose
term expires in 1915. 1t was said to be
probable that Senator Smith would run
for another term. The United States
senatOrship in South Carolina is decided
by the primary vote. the legislative cam
didates. usually all democrats, being
bound to support the nominee OF the
primary.

SAYS THROW AWAY CORSETS.
Mrs. Gait Also Advises Women tc
Wear Trousers.

NEW YORK, December make a
bonfire of your hats: throw away your
cOrsets and wear trousers instead of
these ridiculous tight Skirts is the rec
ommendation of Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Gait, the woman's suffrage leader. to the
Equal Suffrage Club in her report Of a
two-year round-the-world campaign in
behalf of votes for women.
my trip around the globe convinced
me- says Mrs. Gait, that my own
countrywomen are the most fettered, sar-
torially, to be found anywhere Com
pared with the Chinese woman, the
American woman is almost as helpless
as a baby. 1t is time for the western
woman to kick herself free of the swad-
ding draperies which the Partisan sends
over to US. We should declare our indie
pendence in dress as we have in politics,
and the sooner we do it the better for
health, happiness and the cause"
Mrs. Gait advocates the Chinese dress,
or modification of it, because it is the
"most sanitary, healthful. comfortable
and artistic costume a woman can wear"
She describes I he Chinese costume as in
Guiding loose, straight hanging trousers,
made of silk or other material, and over
this garment a straight, loose coat which
comes below the knees usually and but
tons over on one side This garment Is
collarless, with sleeves that are half tight
and end between the elbow and the
wrist.

Two Persons Die in Hotel. Evidently
From Poison.

CATLETTSBURG. Ky, December -
James York, involved in a hotel tragedy.
died late last night. and with his death
there is prevailing opinion that the
mystery that has surrounded the case
may never be unrayeled. That Minnie
Turner the woman found dead IN the ho-
tel: Ida Gullett and York We're poisoned
there appears to be no doubt. but how OF
when is not known.
The testimony at the coroner's inquest
Yesterday that beer bottle found in
the room was not there when the room
was assigned to the three guests. but was
taken into the room by one of the trio.
appears to indicate that the poison or
substance that caused the death of Miss
Turner and York was contained i'm IT, The
Gullett woman still adheres to her story
that she has no knowledge of how or by
whom her companions met their death
She declares that neither OF them con-
veyed the beer bottle or any receptacle
to the room in the hotel.
