The Intelligent Voter


Let S see who is the intelligent
voter.
When Judge Jones spoke at
Hampton he used some langu-
age that was unnecessary.
I voted for Gov. Blease last
election for I had no patience
with prohibition or man who
advocated it in the State Of S.
C. while the national constitu-
ton allowed whiskey to be ship
ed in the State. When Judge
Jones was announced it struck
me very forcibly. But when
the legislative committee wentto
Augusta to hear the testimony
of Fielder, one with any reason
bic idea began to imagine why if
Gov. Blease is so easily bribed
why do not these individuals
who are spending so much mon
ey to get something against the
governor don't just buy him and
run the Government, one would
at once believe he was not so
easy bribed. One would be-
lieve he was unjustly ridiculed.
l had but little idea as to the
pardons and after seeing so
much slush in the papers that
was unreasonable [ was recon-
cerned to look up the cause Of
those pardons. The papers has
published things tt at had they
of been true should not of been
published and hurled to the out
side world unless they meant to
hurt the name of our proud
State. When Grace was elected
mayor of Charlston some of the
Greenville papers and several
others threw shame at the lit
tie city by the sea and pittied it.
But when Grace spoke in Green
vile the same papers said Grace
was not a STRANGER in Greenville
that he was among his friends
and relatives. The papers sound
to me like what | heard a mola-
to woman say once that she
had no credit never had had
any nor I don't want mum
I don't reckon any Of the Spar
tanburg people are low enough
to regret the rotten egg happen
ing its only what ought to of
been done. There are other char
acters that | would mention but
ink is too high priced besides I
feel like a bath now since pass
ing those I have.
NJ. w. Hester
We would like to inquire of
Mr.. Hester what Judge Jones
had to do with the investigating
committees meeting in Angus
ia! or what the dsctagraph said!
or what Grace said! If Govern
or Blease could have had his
way, there would never have
been any investigation, for he
vetoed the act creating the cont
mittee after he had asked the
legislature to pass such a law,
and the public would never have
known of the grating from the
tigers of Charleston. Why do
you charge up to Judge Jones
the faults and mistakes of 9TH
ers, if they have been made?
He is in no way whatever re-
sponsible for what l!t the legiisla-
ture di. i when the Investigating
committee was created, even
though that body acted on Gov.
Blease's invitation. Editor:

came here some months ago to

the very worst that the law allows you to
print in censure of the promoters, and
hope that you will keep your hammer
handy and continue to knock till your
legislature makes it possible for Capital"
to erect death traps over your heads, and
then drop the hammer and use dynamite.

saw more water fowl than believed was
in the whole United States at any one
time. One raft of geese more than mile
across, and every goose had something to
squawk to his friend at the other side Of
the flock. The noise they made nearly
made goose out of me. A person can
not realize without the evidence OF his
own eyes, the vast myriads of fowl that
congregate and winter at that lake. There
are also jack -snipe, Wilson snipe, curlew,
ibis, and all species of smaller waders in
abundance.
We have an organized blue.rock club
aud hold a shoot every Sunday afternoon,
There is membership of so and there
are several fine shots; one man, a Mr..
