BEGIN MILLING NOV.
Southwestern Copper Co. Plant
Nearing Completion.

1t was learned this morning from g.
e. Foote & Son, brokers, that the
Overstrom reduction plant which for
some time has been under construction
at the mine of the Arizona Southwest
ern Copper company at Copperville,
Arizona, is nearing completion, and
that when completed Will probably be.
one of the finest Concentrating ore
mills in the west.
Hon. Charles L. Davidson, ex-mayor
Of Wichita and one Of this company's
heavy stockholders, in a recent letter
to Mr.. Foote stated, that he had just
returned from the mine and that In
his opinion the company will be able
to begin milling and smelling ore
about November 1, and that he could
see no good reason why the company
should not be able to pay its nrst dfvi-
Cend by April 1 next.
Mr.. Davidson seemed to be well
pleased with Improvements and the
equipment of the company's property
as evidenced by the following state
ment:
Gan of the improvements made IN
the mine and in the equipment of the
company property are first class and
up-to-date in every particular. Best
engineers have been employed to de-
sign the buildings and outline the
work Mr.. Davidson further states
that. The ore vein does not diminish
in size with the development work as
far as it has progressed and the ore
seems to carry greater per cent OF
copper. The ore body is inexhausti-
ble''
The company has already under con-
temptation the addition of another ore
unit to the plant now nearing compile
ton by which the daily production
would be doubled and on account of
which another small block of this cons
pany's stock has been placed with this
brokerage firm for sale at 40 cents per
share, at present.
Mr.. Foote states. however. that this
price will not obtain beyond October 1.
Mr.. c. J. Price. the company's con-
inspecting the work as far as 1t has
progressed and planning additional
work on this property. Upon his re-
turn to the city. he has promised to
submit a supplemental report of exact
condition of affairs up to date which
will doubtless be of much interest to
the stockholders of this great mining
enterprise.

marked by the continued absence OF
public interest. Attendency towards
sitter money rates was noted, especial
ly for the longer periods, this trend
being naturally connected with the
steady outflow of cash to interior
points. London's money market also
evinced rising tendency, the private
discount rate being well above that set
by the Bank of England.

Men, Armed With Guns, on
Guard in Relays.
Other Items of Interest on the
North Side.

! A number of men living in the north
west part of the First ward are sleepy
today. For the past two nights they
have been away, armed with guns and
other weapons, watching for a negro
who has been terrorizing the neighbor-
hood. He is thought to be insane. For
week he has been knocking at the
doors of white people and negroes ID
the dead of night and inquiring II
johnson lived there. In most instances
he does not wait for reply, but in
| the morning the people in the homes
where he has called find the screens
cut. He is described as short, extreme
| ly black, wearing dark clothes and a
DERBY.
In some instances the man stuck his
head in the door and cried, Your time
has come" then ran away.
/ At the home of Frank Irwin, 1906
West Laurent street, the negro called
recently about midnight and asked II
johnson lived there. Before any one
could reply he ran away. He repeated
this at the home of Delbert Newberry'
at 1911 West Laurent street. On one oc-
casion he was chased into a cornfield,
hut got away.
Meanwhile the entire neighborhood
has become terrorized and both white
and negroes are afraid to be out at
night.
Finally about 20 men, both white and
negro organized themselves under JOS
eph Holman, of SI9 North Lincoln
street, a negro, and for the last two
nights have been watching iE relays
ell night west of North Polk and south
from Gordon street to the river.
However, on both nights the men
watched the negro was not seen. The
re sidents Of the northwest part Of the
city say that they do not wish to shoot
the man, but have determined to keep
on the lockout for him.

Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Fellow Citizens of South Carolina:
In obedience to the laws of the
Democratic party of South Carolina, l
appear before you today as a candi-
date for re-election to the position Of
governor.
Four years ago, when announced
as a candidate for the Office of COVER
nor, the newspapers raised great
howl against me and said many very
harsh things. They criticised me very
severely for opposing the then chief
executive, using as their argument
that it had always been customary in
this State to give governor two
terms; that it was a precedent which
the people had set and from which,
for many, many years, they had not
deviated, and that it was very wrong

The corporations. Against who? An

swer:: Because they have not been able

Now, gentlemen, I ask you' as men,
do you want a corporation ring-rule,
or do you want a man in the COVER
nor's office who can not be controlled
by corporatins and who will stand by
the interests of the people of the State?
A Dominated Convention.
I call your attention to those con-
ventions because it shows you that
; they were dominated by certain men
and in the interest of certain men; !;
and who are these corporations today
supporting for governor, brought out
by the newspapers, and being support
ed by the newspapers and by those
corporation heads and those corpora
ton lawyers? I submit to you, as a
question of great Importance, and ask

in me, very undemocratic, very impu-
dent and in every other manner and
form against principles and policies
that the governor should be opposed
for his second term. Great changes
have been wrought; those same news
papers, since | have held the chief
executive office, have done everything
within their power to hamper me IN
my administration and to injure the
State government by striking me in
the most malicious manner; and, for
some months past, they have been
clamoring for candidates to oppose
me in my second race. If it was
right, four years ago, that the COVER
nor should have second term, and
if it was precedent then that no
change should be made, why is it to-
day that hose same newspapers
should fight me so bitterly upon the
second term idea, and fight me so bit
terly in behalf of those who are op-
posing me for my second term? Does
it not show conclusively, to all fair
minded men, that it is not fight OF
Justice or principle with them, but
that it is a fight of prejudice and
spite against me, because the news
papers and the corporations have not
been able to control me, or dictate
my policies as governor?
Precedent Not Involved.
am not asking for reelection be-
cause it is a precedent to give man
a second term This argument is
used only for the purpose of showing
to you the great change which has
been brought about and how they
clamored for another mans second
term, On account of this precedent,
and abused me for opposing him.
Now, in so short time, they are
praising another man and fighting his
cause against me for second term
Is it principle that they are fighting
for, or is it to control and dictate the
policies of the government? The position
is up to you, fellow citizens, whether
you shall hove governor, unhamper-
ed, working in the interest of the peo'
pie of the State, which is in accordance
with the Democratic principles, and
which l have followed, or whether yon
are to have a governor who is brought
out by the newspapers and backed by
the corporations and moneyed inter
ests, and who will be dictated to by
them? Look at your recent State con-
vention; your county clubs with fixed
up states forced down your throats,

you to answer it in your cool and de-
liberate moments, by whom is a man
going to be controlled-by the corpor-
ations and newspapers which put him
in office, or by the people, who those
corporations are fighting and endeav-
oring to control and to usurp the au-
thority which belongs to the people?
Then, I ask you the question again
will you vote for a corporation-news-
paper-ring-rule candidate, or will you
cast your ballot for a man who is un-
der no obligation whatever to them,
but is standing and fighting for the
interest of the people of the State, and
who has so fought as representative,
as senator and as governor?
No man can truthfully say that he
was deceived. I was open and plain
in my campaign for this Office, and
stated from every rostrum of this State
what my platform of principles were,
and have not done one thing which
said I would not do, and have left
undone not a thing which I said I
would do, and have lived up to that
platform of principles which was laid
down in that campaign; have stood
by those who stood by me;
and, as stated in my opening
speech at Sumter, my motto is:
Stick to the man who sticks to Blease,
whether it be in private life, in public
life or elsewhere" That doctrine has
been lived up to both in Office and cut
of Office, and 1 propose to continue to
do so as long as there is life j.. my
body, and have no apologies to make
to any man or set of men, or any ex-
cuses to offer for anything which has
been done, as governor, and I am not
coming to you today, with my hat in
my hand, offering excuses or making
apologies or begging you for your
votes.
