SENATORS At BEAUFORT.
JENNINGS AND POLLOCK DO NOT
SPARE OPPONENTS.
Small Crowd Attend Mectin@-GOv.
Bicasc Absent From Senatorial
campaign Ring for First Time.

Beaufort, June 23.-The audience
that heard the candidates for the
United States senatorial nomination
speak here today, although small,
numbering about 100, manifested con-
siderable interest in what was said
by the trio Of vote hunters who ad-
dressed them, Messrs Jcnnings. Pol
lock and Smith The absence Of Gov.
Hleasc broke the quartette for the
first time since the campaign OPEN
ed at st Matthews last Wednesday.
The governor will make his next ap-
pcarance at Barnwell on Friday.
The campaign party arrived here
from WaltcrbOrO at 10 o'clock this
morning, and was met at the station
by committee oc citizens, who, in
automobiles drove the visitors, some
of whom had never before enjoyed
the pleasure Of n stop here, over this
beautiful little city and pointed out
the many interesting and historic
spots, among them the National Gem
etery, the Arsenal and the handsome
homes that adorn Beaufort's brag
residential section the Point" Ev-
cry member Of the party enjoyed the
trip and expressed sincere apprccia-
ton Of the courtesy.
The meeting was opened in the
court house by County Chairman
James NJ. Rhett, with appropriate in
troductOry remarks, at 11.30 and af-
ter prayer by the Rev. Hubert No
land, Chairman Rhett introduced the
candidates in the following order:
Mayor l.. ID. Jennisns, of Sumter; the
Hon. w. p. Pollock, Of Cheraw, and
Senator f. d. Smith, each Of whom
spoke for half hour
The absence of Gov. Blease did not
deter Messrs. Jennings and Pollock
from discussing the executives rec
ford and IL big ma jority of the audi
ence appeared to relish what these
candidates had to say about the gov
ernor's official acts during the past
three and q half years. Both declared
they were mot talking behind the
governors back" that they were
merely repeating what they had said
to his face at previous meetings,
disclaiming any intention Of at
tempting to besmirch his personal
character.
Both Messrs. Jennings and Pollock
also touched up Senator Smith, and
the record they said he was boasting
Of
Senator Smith was right ION the
job" however, and if the attitude of
the crowd is any criterion, his oppo-
nents "got nothing on him.
A selection by the local brass band
before each speech was a pleasing
feature Of todays meeting.
The candidates and newspaper men
with the campaign party were taken
TO Port Royal in automobiles this af-
ternoon by local citizens, and they en-
jOyed an inspection Of Uncle Sans
naval plant there. The party is
spending the night here, and will go
to Ridgeland tomorrow morning for
the Jasper county meeting.

his law Office the previous day. For
about three years he had been sur-
fering from an aneW SIN and this was
Nc immediate caose of his death,
which came Unexpectedly.
Mr.. Nelson has for generation
been recognized as q most successful
lawyer, particularly on the criminal
side Of the court, first as q prosecut-
ing officer and then both as counsel
for the defense and the prosecution.
His chief work has been on the GRIM
inal side of the court, where as a we'll

and was therefore in his 57th year.
In the late SOS Gov. Richardson ap-
pointed Mr.. Nelson solicitor for the
circuit embracing Kershaw, Richland,
Lexington and Edgeiield counties and
for ten years he made an aggressive
and successful solicitor. In 1896 he
was retired to private life and took up
his personal law practice. Being at
tracted to Columbia he located here
and has since that time been active
In his profession and the public af-
fairs of the State.
Mr.. Nelson was the son of the dis
tinguished Col T.. II. Nelson who with
lsion and Thomas engaged in many
notable fights in the War Between
the Sections. His mother was OF the
Cantey family. long identified with
South Carolina.
Most of his life was spent in Cam
den, where as a lad he went to school.
then he attended the University Of the
South, at Sewanee.
AS a young lawyer he went into
partnership with Col. Jno. ID. Kennedy
and as early as 1886 was elected to
the general assembly. He was admit
ted H. the bar in this state in 1877
and lived to receive the honor of be-
ing the president Of the State Bar as
sociaiiOn.
In 1878, on November 25, no mar
ried Miss Henrietta Melville Shan
non. daughter Of the late Col. VIM. NJ.
shannon. ana their married life has
Deen one Of devotion and happiness.
Mrs. Nelson and William S. Nelson
survive. VIM. $. Nelson Ii associated
with his father i'm the firm of Nelson,
Nelson & Gcttys.
As token Of his interest i'm tho af-
fairs Of Columbia, Mr. Nelson served
as member of city council.
Mr.. Nelson served on the personal
staffs OF Brig Gen. Kennedy and Gov.
Jno. Il. Richardson, his rank being
that of lieutenant colonel.
Mr.. Nelson i'm his long and active
career as lawyer tried many causca
but 1t was while quite n young advo-
cate that he won his laurcls as "a sue
cessful prosecutor by his securing the
conviction Of Jones for tho killing of
Prcssleys. In after years no both
prosecuted and defended many promi-
nent causes.
