WRITES OF GOV. BLEASE
Says Want air ElectiOn-Will Send
Blease to L. :. Senate Sen
ate.
ditor The Herald and News:

EQlIOT Inc 1eIdlu dIu News
Please allow space in your paper
for a few lines. Some of the papers
and some of the people in this good
State OF ours say that Blease has
changed since he has been governor Of
South Carolina, but | can't see any
change in him only for the better. Just
why some of the people hate Blease
so bad | can't understand for it
seems to me that he has meted out
justice to everyone alike, and that is
just what everybody wants if they
want the riglt thing. They wanted a
man that would be governor Of all the
people, and they got him, and he has
been governor CT South Carolina and
tIey can't deny it.
Now before Blease got to be govern
or half of tle people in South Caro-
lima did not &now what the governor
Of South Carolina had been doing,
but just as soon as Blease got to be
governor they found out. Just what
some o. the papers have got against
Blease no one has ever been able to
find out. He has got just as good a
character as any one. His reputation
is good, at least the greater ma
jority of the people in South Caro-
lima think So Anyway when he asks
for anything he always gets it.
Some people say that he won't carry
his own county, but Blease will get
mere votes in Newberry county than
he has ever gotten since he mas been
in politics.
Blease has made good at everything
he ne, er undertook But still they fight
Blease without giving" any reason.
They don't give aim any credit for
anything he does.
l do nope We will have an honest
election. That is al t2ey cry. Well,
Just poin in with the Blease forces and
you will have it, for that is all the
kind OF elections we have, and you
have the same right we've got.
The Bleaseites claim to be Demo-
Gratis of the highest type, and we re-
spec. everybody else the same way.
All we want is justice and We are go
ing to have it. And if you don't get
Justice it is your fault, and IL you will
appeal to Blease ne is gentleman
encugh to see that you get justice, for
ne has never been known to do any
thing else but to mete out justice to
his fellowman.
We elected him governor and We ex-
pect to elect him United States sena-
tor and we won't do any dirt to elect
him. We never have, and we never
will
If you want to elect a god man, a
man that will do mis- duty without fear
or favor to anybody, vote for Cole. l..
Blease and you have got him.
Some people don't vote for him be-
cause he didn't give them job. |
have always supported Blease and
worked just as hard to get him elect
ed as any one else almost, or at least
| did all that I could for him, and he
has never given me any job and l am
not mad with him, for l know, just
as everybody else should know, that
ne can't give everybody job. If he
could everybody would get one.
We are going to send him up to
Washington because he has made
good down here We believe he can
make good UP there. We are willing
to risk it anyway, so play fair witn
US and we will play fair with you.
