applauded Governor Blease's ircon
sistent remarks.
Following the meeting Of the com
mittee at which the resolution was
passed. Mr.. Manning was called out OF
the State on important business that
could not be delayed. He knew that
he could not get back to South Car
olina in time to begin the investigation
which he, moreover, felt should b..
undertaken at once. Hence, he asked
to be excused from serving i'm order
that others who might go to work at
once could take the matter i'm hand
and reach a conclusion as quickly as
possible. This he felt was necessary.
When Mr.. Manning returned to
South Carolina from his trip, he
found that the probe had not pro-
gressed very far and he, Immediately,
wrote John Gary Evans, State Demo-
cratic chairman, calling upon him to
order the work forward so as to de-
clare the result of the primary and
the investigation and let the people OF
the state know just what had been ac-
complished.
Later when the whole committee
was called TO meet, it was Mr.. Man
ming who introduced the resolution to
declare the result on the face of the
returns and it was the passage Of this
resolution that declared Cole l.. Blease
governor, and the other men who at
tanned majorities in the second pri-
mary to their respective Offices.
These evidences Of fair play, these
efforts to safeguard the Democratic
primary in our State and preserve il
intact from outside control, are now
distorted and used as tempting NOR
sells to catch the popular fancy, by
the governor. When the people un-
derstand the real facts in the case
they will applaud Mr. Manning and
others who stand for pure elections
and for white supremacy in govern
mental control. Only recently Mr..
Manning outlined his views on the
primary question by stating, in effect,
that he favors every white man, not
disqualified by constitutional or stat
utory provisions, being allowed to vote

those who are making the fight to re-
tain the purity of the ballot in South
Carolina. and he should not be
maligned by INSCRIPTIONS politicians
who are seeking their own personal
advancement. The people Of South
Carolina, who so love fair treatment
will not stand for it. They will rally
TO the support of any man so .un-
justly attacked, especially when that
MAN has the traits of Richard l. Man
ming. ~ 1-r
The spectacle of Blease, in one
breath attacking a member of the
Executive Commitee-ch charged with
the duty-for asking for pure pri-
maries. and in the next moment MAX
ing plea for these same honest cleo
tions, will only tend to convince the
people of Blease's determination that
the primaries in this State shall be
thrown open to all sort Of irregulari-
ties. 1t will be seen which will tri-
umph and that the people are tired OF
the pretense Of n-partisanship and
fairness evidenced under Bleaseism
already abundantly has been shown.

THE RAINFALL INCREASE
