We notice lrom the last issue OF the
AIbbeville Press and Banner tnat it
makes no report of the Abbeville con-
gressional campaign meeting. True,
a little editorial is written in which
it is stated that the paper c1mes out
so long after the meeting that it would
be old news, but possibly many Of its
readers. 90 not take any other paper
and they should know something Of
the meeting.
Besides, the Press and Banner does
not quote correctly. The Press and
Banner quotes US as saying: Tine
AbbevAle Medium says the AobeVllle
meeting was an anti-Aiken meeting"
We quoted from the Medium which
said: Judging by the applause it was
a Dominick, or at least, an antl-Alken
meeting" That was the quotation.
See the differencea Always be fair.
That has always been the policy OF
The Herald and News. You cant
fool the people even if you want to-
And we don't want to and never tried
to. If things don't go our way we are
soing to be glad anyhow, and you
can't take that away from US.
Ii has always been very funny to US
how some people will pout and get
mad, even,S if you don't vote the way
they think you should, just like you
belonged to them. We want to see
every voter man and vote his non
est convictions and just as he pleases
And we don't believe any of them can
be bought like cattle on the market
1t has always been disgusting to US to
see a few men get together and as
sumo to their noble selves all the
patriotism and all the virtue and all
the honesty and then go off and try
to tell the people what they should DO
and how they should vote. But let
us tell you, the old farmer and the cot
ton mill operative, is we'll posted and
is going to vote as free man and he
can't be bought either. Ii ne can he
isn't worth buying. Let the people
rule. That is our motto.

reply that he would not be disturbed
until his time was out. Mr.. Aiken may
take either dilemma. Maybe about
that time 1e was not attending to his

And then there is another thing
which may have escaped the attention
of Mr.. Aiken. Why should the depart
ment be so muca concerned about tie

that he did not stay there eight hours

Fred Dominick has been making a
vigorous campaign for congress from

friends in all sections of tie district.
We have been in Anderson and Able
VILE and Greenwood and Oconee dur
ing the past several days and all the
signs point to the election of Mr.. Dom
mick to. congress. All the candidates
admit that he will carry Pickens coun-
ty by a good majority over all and
there is little doubt that he will have
a safe majority in Anderson. Oconee
and Greenwood are all right, though
the majority will not be as great in
those two counties as in the others.
The people of Newberry saould ral-
ly to the support of one of their own
sons and give him a large majority.
Mr.. Dominick does not base his sup
mort in Newberry county on the fact
that he is a NeWberry man, but ne
places his claim on fitness and ability.
He will carry Newberry county by
safe majority but it should be much
larger Why some of these Newberry
people will oppose nome man who
is the equal, if not the superior, IN
ability of any man in the race, one

even though you may not believe it il,
you are a Bleaseite: The governor
is not running for the governorshlp
again. He is running for the senate
most of the time and away from Pol
lock and Jennings nearly every day
Greenwood Journal.
From the socalled speeches of Pol
lock and Jennings it would seem
that they are laboring under the de-
lGsion that he is running for tae gov
ernorship. They have never advanced
one reason why they should be elected
to the senate, or if they have the news
papers have failed to reccrd 1t, and
they devote their time to what they
call assailing the record Of the gov
ernor as governor. But that is neither
here nor there, they are not hurting
Gov. Blease with the voters. If they
have any weight at all they only tend
to make his supporters the stronger.
In fact, we heard a very ardent sup.
Porter cf Smith say the other day IN
all seriousness that he believed Gov
Blease had them employed to help
him in his race for the senate.
I'VE are quoting this paragraph from
the Journal to make another state
ment. however, and an altogether diff
rerent statement Pollock has charg-
ed Bease with being a-reid to face
MIN, and some very good ano conser-
vative papers have taken UP the cue
and are charging that Blease is
afraid to meet Pollock, and arguing
that it is helping to defeat Blease be-
cause his supporters do not like
coward. 1t is true that no one ad-
mires a coward.
But if it is helping to defeat Blease,
why object?
We have known the Bleases for at
least tvs, generations, and we have
never before heard any Of them charg-
ed with being towards. You have got
to hand it TO them that they will
fight. That is one of their faults, taey
are too quick to fight.
The first volunteer from South Car
olina in the Confederate army was
Blease from Aewberry, an uncle CT
Gov. Blease, and Mr.. Chapman in the
Annals of Newberry pays very hign
tribute to his courage and his tortl-
tude. He was disabled by bullet at
the battle of Cold Harbor while in
the forefront OF the fray.
There are people Who seem to
think that it would be better for the
governor to resent by a personal en-
counter the language of Pollock anu
Jennings, and we have no doubt he
would if he remained on the stand
while they were speaking, and ii they
think he leayes because he is afraid OF
them they are terribly mistaken.
Suppose we get down to hard tacks
on this question. Suppose Gov.
Blease hould give physical resentment
to the words of these genltmen.
Doesn't every reasonable man know
that in the present state of the public
mind that some one would be killed?
Possibly all four of the candidates for
the senate, and maybe dozen in
nocent bystanders.
No, it is better to let them blow off
than to have human life sacrificed,
They are chafing bee use he &as not
noticed them. In this matter We must
commend thu seI control Of the COVER
no. and commend him for paving no
attention to their mad rawlings.
