Columbia State.
Men who wish to be deceived very
easily may be deceived. For exam
pie, there are those who say that
Mr. Blease more than Judge Jones, is
"the poor mans friend" and the i'm
preston is diligently spread that on
ly the poor men are supporting the
Governor.
Without dilating here on the fact
that the Governor himself says that
Mr. Abney, who lives in the, house
with him, is worth 81, 800, 900, and
that Mr. Abney is the head of the
legal department of the Southern
railway, the cpoor men" who fancy
the Governor their champion would
have their eyes opened if they would
visit in Charleston. The story is told
in Charleston that the richest mer.
chant in the city has remarked that
he would give $4,000 towards the
reelection of the Governor. This is
probably not true, rich South Caro-
lima merchants seldom dump $4,000
into political enterprises, but it is
not questioned that this Money-bags
is backing the Governor. Moreover
it is further understood in Charles
ton that the illustrious family of
Sottile, late subjects of His Royal
Highness, the King of Italy, are
friends" of the Governor and no
one denies that they are merchant
princes and among the greatest of
Charleston owners of real estate.
In Charleston the poor mans
friends" appear to have the hearty
support of an element of the COM
munity that owns property in a.
mount far out of proportion to the
number of its votes.
Indeed, the most distinguished
poor man" who is active in the
campaign for Governor Blease is Re-
preventative Joshua W Ashley Of An
derson county, who may not be worth
more than 100000 and is possibly
worth not more than $4,000.

TOBACCO SALES FOR
MONTH OF JULY
LAKE CITY LEADS THE MAR
KETS OF THE STATE--KINGS-
TREE 5YH ON THE EIST.

Columbia, August l1:-Figures
on the July sales of the tobacco crop
in South Carolina, as compiled and
issued by Commissioner Watson,
show that 5,064,0S5 pounds Of to-
bacco We're sold, and the price paid
for it was 1881 ,604.95, an increase
for 1912 over 1911 of 4,Sl2,S74
pounds of tobacco, and representing
an increase in money of $3.50, ,251.21.
the average price paid per pound
for this crop of 1912 was .075, the
average for 1911 was .066 and the
average for 1910 was .051. The re-
port shows thirteen tobacco markets
and thirty-two warehouses in the
State.
The largest crop the State ever
had was in 1909, when tobacco was
grown on S,166 farms, 30,0S2 acres
being planted. There were 25,5S3,-
049 pounds produced and the crop
brought S2,123,576.
In 1911, last year, 1860 acres
were planted in tobacco and H.
101 ,006 pounds were produced, sell
ing for 81, 1852, 463.S4. AS compared
to 1910, the decrease in 1911 of pro-
duction was 7,7O1, ,S79 pounds, or 40
per cent, while in value the decrease
was 1852, ,222, or Is per cents.
In 1911 the average yield per acre
was SO pounds ard the average
paid per pound was SIS cent.
In July last year in the thirteen
markets and twenty-five warehouses,
944, ,301 pounds were marketed, for
which S62, 1888 was paid. The Au-
gust and September sales ran ABOUT
five times as much as the July sales.
In the month just closed 5 ,464 .4S5
pounds were marketed in the thir-
teen markets in thirty-two ware
houses, over five times as much as
for the same period last year. and
1881 ,604.95 has been paid for 1t,
at 7.53 cents per pound, over six
times as much as for July of 1911.
The indications are that this Will
be the largest tobacco crop in the
history of the State.
The figures for the month OF July
are given below:
July, 1912. By markets, l3 mar

Charleston Post.

Charleston Post.
AS the end of the State campaign
approaches and the hour Of popular
Judgment draws near, Governor
Blease is showing the dread he has
every reason to fear of the verdict
that will be rendered upon his case
by the people of South Carolina. He
is not only beginning to realize that
he is a beaten man, but he is seeing
spooks. At Gaffney he said he had
been warned of plot to assassinate
him at that place. Such disordered
imagination can be the result only
of breaking down of the brazen
front he has presented and has en-
deavored to maintain before the peo-
pie. 1t was too big contract even
for one as hardened as Blease, and
the strain has been too severe.
Hardly a day passes now, as the
campaign is winding up, that the
Governor doesn't refer to some reck-
oning or retribution that may be in
store for nim. Several times since
the last stage of the campaign began
he has referred to the prospect Of
his defeat, accompanying it with
threats of what he intended to do to
the gang that would defeat him
the gang" being no other than the
majority of the white people Of
South Carolina, for they are the ones
who are going TO compass his defeat.
The assassination talk is merely a
variation and an exaggeration of the
political doom that Rlease faces. He
is at the end of his political career,
but those no have been outraged
by his acts as Governor of South
Carolina are not seeking his life.
After he is defeated and deposed as
Governor, the State of South Caro-
lima may have questions to ask and
accounts to require Of him for which
his preservation is of real and prac-
tical Importance. Besides, while we
have come to evil enough estate in
South Carolina under Blease, we
haven't got to assassination yet.
