Blcasc Losing Strength.

During the editors recent trip
through the State he met many peo-
pie from different sections who suy
thac Blease has lost many votes he
got two years ago, and has not
gained any. A man from Clarendon
said: At our club two years ago
Blease got so and Jones IL. 1t will
be about reversed this time" A man
from Lexington said: THE farmers
on the Ridge won't vote for Blease
and many. of them do not like Smith.
We ought to concentrate on Pollock
or Jennings as the strongest man
to beat Blease." A man from Aiken
said: 1T will be Blease and Smith
in aiken, mostly Smith. Blease car
rted Aiken by a good majority two
years ago, but he can't carry it
against Smith," 1t is the general
opinion that there will be a second
primary between Blease and Smith
and that most Of the Jennings and
Pollock votes will go to Smith,

Candidate and Voter.

To the Editor of the News and Con.
rier: Upon what grounds should a
man support candidate for office ?
Because men have no convictions on
this question, candidates use all sorts
of catch-vote methods.
In the last issue of Harpers Weekly
a letter given out by Roger c. Sulli-
van, candidate for the United States
senate from Illinois, is quoted. Among
other appeals is this one: You know
mo well enough to know that 1 shall
not be fOrgetful in the hour of VIC
tory
Last week one Of our candidates for
the senate said on the stump: IF you
want to get on the kings wagon. and
get some ice cream and cake. vote for
me. When | get in the senate no man
who did not vote for Blease need ap-
ply"
In commenting on the Sullivan let
ter the Weekly said: "Whatever may
be said of Mr.. Sullivan, there is no
doubt whatever that he will carry out
the promise :. :. ..Anybody in Illi-
nois who wishes to vote, not for his
nome, his city, or for his State, but in
the hope Of a job, should vote for Mr..
Sullivan. He will not be fOrgetful in
the hour Of victory"
Enough said. A Voter.

Photo Drama Defended.

Editor Sumter Daily Item.
Dear Sir: A little space in your
paper for reply to an article that
appeared in last Thursdays issue
crlticising the photo drama and it's
author, Pastor c. T. Russell, will be
greatly appreciated. This article, by
one Raymond Browning of Columbia
was published in the State. No
doubt, the citizens of Sumter will be
pleased to hear the other side.
Our critic reveals his prejudice
against the drama, first because it is
under the auspices of The Internat-
ional Bible Students Association and
not the production of any sectarian
church. AS though the l. B. S. A.
did not have equal rights to teach the
Bible with any other religious body.
How narrow and bigoted this po-
sition. Pastor Russell, the worthy
president of the I. B. S. A., is stated
as being the bitterest enemy the
enemy only of the bible denying
creeds SO disrespectful to the Divine
character and the product Cf the dark
ages largely. He does not lower his
dignity as a gentleman and Christian
minister to maliciously attack the
good name and character Of anyone,
hr,f 1nnc
ages hip and thigh by the sword of
the spirit, the word of God. MIR.
Browning may we'll note this fact and
would greatly profit by copying the
pastors example in speaking evil of
no man. Yes indeed! AS Mr.
Browning quotes: by their fruits, We
shall know them" The spirit Of our
critics article surely is an index Of
the heart, for "Out of the abundance
Of the hearth the mouth speaketh."
We pass by the false and malicious
slanders against Pastor Russell as
being unworthy Of reply. When the
Master was reviled, he rcviled not
again, but committed himself to Him,
who judgeth righteously. Time will
Vindicate all who are falsely accused
and we can patiently wait, Isaiah G6:5.
AS to the drama "being weak and too
ludicrous to hurt many our critic
sees in it serious grounds for fear
and alarm, for he comedies it's
strength by his attempt to expose it.
The two million people Of this coun-
try who have seen it, however, think
otherwise and even enemies as well as
friends have candidly acknowledged
it's potent influence for peace and
Righteousness. unto the pure all
things arc pure, but unto them that
are defiled, and unbclieving, nothing
is pure; but even their mind and
conscience is defiled. They profess
that they know God, but in their
works they deny him, being abomin-
able and disobedient, and unto
every good work rcprObate.'
Titus lis. 1G. Our critic re-
vsals wOeful lack Of knowledge
of the teachings Of Pastor Russell.
His quotations from other stale crit
icisms shows that Mr.. Browning has
taken the pcrvcrsiOns Of others as
proof. All who have read Pastor
RuSsell'S books, will see the absurdity
of these criticisms, especially the
second chance" idea. We feel sorry
for the condition of anyone, who calls
the books of the pastor deviish. This
is almost incXcusable blindness and
pcrvcrSity. The Chicago Board of
Censorship, after witnessing the photo
drama films and slides, pronounced
them the finest Chicago had ever wit
messed.
Sincerely yours,
Pastor Alfred l.. Smith

The Citadel Commencement.

Last week took in the COM
mencement exercises Of the Citadel,
the military college Of South Carolina.
IL was very gratifying to see the
prominence given to the civic, rural
and religious side of life in the ad-
dresses by students. members of tho
faculty and of the board of visitors.
IN oil the proceedings there were but
two illusions to the military and
these were the humorous remarks by
DIR. Pollock In presenting the medals
TO the capt,.!n OF the est drilled
company and 10 the best drilled ca
:. and the witty reply OF Col. Lew

spienaid talk 10 the graduating class
about their duties and opportunities
In the civil life OF the State.

OF the graduating class who were
selected to deliver orations were
scholarly at the expense of the mill

graduating oration Truth, Justice

splendid plea for that righteousness
that exalted a nation" 1t was u fitting
conclusion to a series Of orations.
In his rat" year. Tho Power of the
Press" In his third year. "Lawless-
ness Must Cease" I'm his second year.
Two other orations on this occasion
deserve special mention: Pioneers
Past and Present" and Social Ser

these were the baccalaureate sermon
by Citadel graduate I'm the grand
auditorium of st. Pauls church.
And what doth the Lord require Of
these. but to do Justly. to love mercy
and to walk humbly before thy
