THE PIEDMONT

Thomas F. Mellow, a prominent
attorney of York, says:
81 am supporting Governor Man
ming for reelection:
Because he is a man of ability,
purity of character and a patriot
who is devoted to the best interests
of South Carolina.
Because he has been strong
enough to advocate measures in the
interest of the masses of the peo-
pie against the powerful protest of
former friends of wealth, power
and influence.
Because on all occasions and
everywhere he has conducted him
self so as to reflect credit upon the
high Office to which the people of
South Carolina have elected him.
Because during his administra-
ton there has been no unseemly
quarrel between the Governor and
the General Assembly and the
Governor and the Judiciary. He
has received the respect of every
department of government and has
treated the other departments of
government with that respect and
courtesy to which they are en-
titled from the Executive.
Because, in my opinion, he has
made one of the best governors the
State has had since 1876, and on
his merits and by established GUS
tom he is entitled to second term.
"For these reasons I am sup
porting Governor Manning, not
withstanding the fact that person
ally l have the highest respect and
regard for Mr.. Cooper"

JNO. G.. CLINKSCALES:

DR.. Jno. G. Clinkscales, former
candidate for Governor of South
Carolina and professor at Wofford
College, says:
"My regular summer work for
Wofford College in particular, and
for education in general, has taken
me over many counties, and feel
quite sure, after watching closely
the trend of things, that Governor
Manning will succeed himself. In
my judgment the Governor is gain
ing ground every day. The open,
manly, straight way in which he
has met his opponents and his
persistent fight all along for good,
clean government are gripping the
attention of the people as the cleo
ton day approaches.
"Many good men who would per-
sonally prefer one of the other
candidates are beginning to feel as
does DR.. Mccain; tmat to vote at
this time for any other would be
evidence of a failure to appreciate
an honest effort on the part of the
chief executive to give South Caro-
lima clean government.
" lam glad to find, too, that the
people will allow no more elimina-
ton, such as we had two years ago.
Every tub must 2and on it's own
bottom they say.
Governor Manning has had no
easy task. His has not been a bed
of roses. In discharging his duty
he has necessarily offended many
neople. That was to be expected.
He has done well, and l believe the
people will give him second term
as governor, as he deserves"

Might As Well Use Rowboafs.

The House has accepted what is
known as the Senate's navy program,
authorizing the largest construction.
In our history and the biggest arrna-
ment budget ever passed in time OF
peace. No one should suppose that
because ge are preparing such heavy
armament we are necessarily better
defended because OF it If there Is one
cardinal fact in the worlds recent en-
pertencc it is that no amount of mill
tary preparation can in itself consti-
tute adequate defense. No matter how
big navy tho United States may
build, its security will not rest upon
that navy It's security will rest upon
the proper adjustment Of It's relations
to the great powers of Asia and Flu
rope. and especially to the British
empire Unless our diplomatic policy
is formulated in such a way as to
assure as the friendship Of the lib-
oral powers Of tho West; unless, in
other words. we are automatically Sc
cure against a hostile combination Of
! powers, all this naval construction
Will simply be more money wasted ii
a futile race OF ornaments. Build the
second greatest navy in the world, ac-
company 1t with 4 policy of diplO-
matte isolation and with what the Re-
/ publicans call the intention of up
/ holding all our rights everywhere and
all the time" and If the worlds OK
perience means anything we shall see
, formed against US a combination Of
/ forces greater than anything we can
create. The naval program will add
TO the security of the United States
only If we are governed by a policy
; which recognizes that force must be
used in com hination with the progress
! siVe nations Of Western Europe.-The
New Republic.
