TO the Editor Of The Keowee Cou-
rier, Walhalla, South Carolina:
My Dear Sir
Owing to the unusually heavy
rains during the time the candidates
for Congress were to make their
campaign speeches in Oconee county,
it was not possible for either Mr..
Bradley or myself to fill the appoint
ments which were made by the
County Chairman for Oconee county.
AS will not have an opportunity
to address the voters Of Oconee
county during the short time before
the election, am enclosing you a
copy Of the account Of my campaign
speech at Honea Path, as published
in the Honea Path Chronicle. Please
publish this speech in your next issue
along with this letter.
I hope that conditions will be such
that | will have an opportunity Of
personally seeing more Of the good
people of Oconee county before the
election, and l want to take this op-
portunity of thanking the people of
Oconee county for the handsome vote
they have given me heretofore.
Sincerely yours,
FRED H. DOMINlCK.

ley Is wheel horse" and the un-
ansWerable charges hurled at Con-

Ing efcet OH the large audience that
greeted the speakers. Mr.. Dominick
has nothing to show for the -four
years he has been in Congress, and
therefore he has no comeback" at

NEWBERRY MAN SHOWS
UP DONiINICK'S RECORD.

NewDerry, S. c., Aug. live are
on the eve Of another election and
can hear much "get-together" propa-
ganda talked. AS there are no vital
issues dividing us now, why not be
guided Dy the best reason in select
ing public servants, whose public
records we can all endorse?
The only intelligent method to
Judge mans fitness for a position
Is to take stock of his record. Then
let us look back to our Congressman
acts, when our country was sorely in
need OF true friends, and see If we
can conscientiously endorse his acts.
When Germany was running
rough-shod over tho world, rioting
in the blood Of our unoffending citi-
zens on the high seas, patroling our
coasts and sinking ships at our very
door to terrorize us. our President,
perceiving the purpose Of these acts,
was to cover us into an ignominious
submission, informed Congress that
we must submit or fight. While it
may have been excusable in our Con-
gressman to vote to submit, which lie
did, after Congress declared that
Germany was making ruthless war
fare on US without just cause and
we should resist with all our might.
