TO the Editor Of The State:
This is the first time l ever penned
a line for publication but l feel it my
duty to present Col. N. b. Dial as u
suitable man to represent this State
IN the United States senate. He is one
among the finest business men in
South Carolina. will cndcavor to
mention few of his transactions as
business man. A few years ago, as
sisted by two or three other men, he
built the Peoples Loan & Exchange
Bank, which L; u desirable building for
any city or town in the State. He also
built the oil mill in the town Of Lau-
rens. He was one of the main helpers
in building the old Laurens Cotton
Mill. He also built the glass factory
in the city OF Laurcns. He built a
bonded warehouse OF which he is
president.
Here | say that he has always boon
a great friend to the farmers. He al
ways attended the farmers conven-
tons OF various kinds. He assured the
farmers that he was over ready to
assist them in any way that he could
lie novcr advised The farmers to hold
their cotton but always told them that
he had the warehouse to take care Of
cotton for them and would loan them
50 per cent of value Of their cotton
but never failed to tell them that he
was not advising thcm to hold their
cotton that the people knew as much
about the cotton in the future as he
did
He went into the most desolatc place
ever saw on Saluda River and bllilt
a MAGNIFICENT factory known rs the
Ware Shoals Manufacturing Company,
which has been great convenience to
all that country. He also built on
Rccdy River magnificent power
plant, sinncrics and grain mills which
are great convcniences TO the country
in which they arc locatctl. He also
conducts the power from these plants
to tho city of Iaurcns by which the
town is lighted and cotton mills are
operated and all kinds Of shops and
Srain mills are in operation by the
power. | merely mention these enter
DrisoS to show the energy that is in
the man.
Mr. Dial is ever ready TO help in
anything pertaining to agriculturc We
have 4 demonstration agent in our
county 10 organize what is known as
pig clubs and other various industries
He tells ne that when he wants to
order carload Of pigs or registered
cattle TO put out among the boys and
farmers he always finds Colonel Dial
ready to foot the bills and wait on the
boys until they can pay for them. He
also tells me that Colonel Dial says
he has never lost a cent in any OF tho
boys clubs.
Now to my certain knowledge the
greatest and most noble deed he has
ever done is to loan girls of our corn-
ty money to secure their education in
various colleges. We have some in
our immediate neighhorhood Of whom
We are very proud. wish to say here
they arc making good. Had it not
been for the Kindness of Colonel Dial
they would have been hocing and pick
ing cotton on farms.
Colonel Dial is n worry conservative
man. He has opinions ana decisions
of his OWN. But he always grants the
other fellow the same rights. Now,
