THE GOVERNORS RACE

That the election oi anti-Hlvasitc

for the senate and II the same time
for i'l"asc candidate for governor TO
be- assured of election 10 that Office.
Moreover. as the situation appears to
be shaping up AT present. thcr" is SER
ions danger. We think, that this very
thing may happen.
The risk lies in The fact that il looks

10 be split all to pieces while there is
Il strong probability that the Blcase
support will be ccntcrcd upon ,wo Of

1t would not be the first time In
South Carolina politics that snch a
sad mischancr had wrecked the hopes
of seemingly triumphant majority.
Indeed. ii is scarcely overstating the
case to say that under the primary

To many people in Anderson the

Columbia, bore message Of personal
sadness, and the later news that he
Is not dangerously wounded brought

Mcintosh Is one Of the best citizenS
OF the state as well as one OF the
strongest men in his profession. II

allusion. he has about the san,a per

siderate, manly, honorable, a man re-

prcmOnitiOn or u warming of some
kind. He is not the kind Of man to
carry arms. especially as the Knowl-
ton hospital is only about three
blocks from the home of DR.. Mcintosh
and the streets are fairly we'll light
cd. and thickly populated. except the
church lot which occupied half OF a
city block and Is surrounded by u
brick wall, low in front and higher

OH tho side
Dr. Mcintosh is flcshy man and
has tho tremendous responsibility OF
large and lucrative practice and hc
evidently finds little pleasure during
this hot weather in being n patient In
the institution where he has been

God In u rlerciful provit,cntc has
spared the useful and valuable life Of
this sterling citizen and eminent prac-
titioner. He is man OF gentle ways,
of genial manner. of unusual profess
sional standing, and In Columbia, his
adopted home, he Is looked up to as
