American forces from Gen. Pershing's
column to advance further south. nor
to move either east or west from the
points where they were located, and
to oppose new incursions of American
soldiers into Mexican territory. These
orders were brought by Gen. TreVlno
to the attention of Gen. Pershing, who
acknowledged the receipt of the COM
munication relative thereto. On the
twenty-second instant, as your excl
lency knows, an American force
moved eastward quite far from its
base, notwithstanding the above or
ders, and was engaged by Mexican
troops, at Carrizal, state Chihuahua.
AS result of the encounter several
men on both sides were killed and
wounded and seventeen American SOL
diers were made prisoners.

"You are hereby instructed to hand
to the minister of foreign relations of
the de facto government, the follow
ing:
1.-The government of the United
States can put no other construction
upon the communication handed to the
secretary of state Of the United States
on the twenty-fourth of June by Mr..
Arredondo under instruction of YOU
government that that is intended as
a formal avowal of deliberately hostile
action against the forces of the United
States now in Mexico and of the pur-
pose to attack them without provoca-
ton whenever they move from their
present position in pursuance of the
objects for which they were sent
there, Notwithstanding the fact that
those objects not only involve no un-
friendly intention towards the govern
ment and people of Mexico but are on
the contrary, intended only to assist
that government in protecting itself
and the territory and people OF the
United States against irresponsible
and insurgent bands of rebel marau-
ders.
Demand Prisoners Release.
81 am instructed, therefore, by my
government to demand the immediate
release of the prisoners taken in the
encounter at Carrizal, together with
any property of the United States TAX
en- with them and to inform you that
the government of the United States
expects an early statement from your
government as to the course of action
it wishes the government of the Unit
ed States to understand it has deter
mined upon and that it also expects
that this statement be made through
the usual diplomatic channels and not
through subordinate military COM
manders.'"

With businesslike gravity congress

and in addition, several others
ceiyed wounds. AS further proof
this lawlessness, call your attentidV%
barticularly 10 the fact tnat sevenW
teen white women have been crimi-W
nally assaulted by negroes, and twoN
waite women by white men, during
his administration, and that sixteen
white men have been killed or Sc
riously injured as the result Of
wounds received at the hands of ne
groes. And as further proof call
your attention to the several strikes
and clashes which have taken place
between capital and labor; the extra
terms Of court that have been called
in the State for the purpose Of trying
criminals in order to rslie.e the con-
gestion of the dockets, and two extra
terms for the trying OF negroes who
had ravished white women, to pre-
vent lynching. And the reports Of
the solicitors will show that there
have been more criminal cases tried
under this administration than un-
der any other. Why, in the city OF
Columbia alone, the solicitor at the
last summer term had ninety cases.
and at this sumer term seventy-five-
the heaviest dockets ever known in
the circuit.
l cannot think of taking up all
these various things and calling them
to your attention. Time would never
permit. But in addition to these
things I specially call your atten-
tion to the many, many convictions
of blind tigers throughout the State,
and especially the recent convictions
in the city Of Sumter, the city Of
Charleston, and the city of Columbia,
right where the newspapers have
been saying to the people of the State
that prohibition was being enforced
and that no blind tigers were in ex-
istence.
This entire cry of law enforcement
and law and order, my friends, is but
the 15-cent cotton cry of 1914, and is
being used in the same manner, to
attempt to draw your minds away
from the main issues of this cam
paign, and to deceive you, as many
of you were deceived then in the
casting of your ballots for those who
were not in sympathy with you and
your cause.

We have heard a great deal about
law and order, and law enforcement,

more laWlessness in the State OF

ming has been in the governors chair
than has ever been known in the his
tory of the State within the same
length of time, and more than there
was during the entire four years OF
the Blease administration. AS proof,
call your attention to the Charles
ton riot, one dead and several in
jured, and fourteen true bills return
ed by the grand jury for lawlessness
on that occasion, and which riot cost
the tax payers eleven thousand dol
lars to pay the militia to stand guard
with bayonets over white mans

CONS mill; the Pageland riot, where
one man was killed and five wound
ed and three others were expected to
die from seriousness of their
wounds; the Greenville riot, where
one man was killed and others in
jured: the Hampton riot, where two
men were killed and four or five
others seriously wounded; the Null

ed: the Olanta riot, where one man
was killed and three seriously
wounded; the riot near the North
Carolina line, above Bennettsville,
where one man was killed; the Co
lumbia street car riot, where some
were injured, but luckily nobody was
killed; and last, but by no means
least of these, the Winnsboro riot,
where the sheriff of the county and
his deputy were killed; where Mr..
Clyde Isenhower, the brave and daring
young farmer, who was standing
there as the defender of the virtue
of his wife and of the womanhood of
his State, was murdered like a dog,

piness of the people of this Nation:
all of the people Of this Nation. And
although the Party has at times for
gotten some parts of the Law as it
pertains to all of the people, it still
is the custodian of the peoples rights,
liberties, etc, and is now-like re-
pentant Israel-coming back to the
landmarks of progress, prosperity, lib
critics, immunities, privileges, and all
constitutional rights of ali of the cit
liens of this great commonwealth,
