Ed. C. Mann, of Orangeburg, who

Solicitor George Bell Zimmerman,

Mr.. Zimmerman were defeated by
Congressman Mann in the special
election, Mr.. Zimmerman going in
to the second primary election with
him.
The next campaign promises to be
one of the most unexciting in many
years, as there will be an absence of
the well-known brand of factional
politics with which the State has
been cursed. Cole L.. Blease is out of
the running, with nobody to pick up
his mantle. He is practicing law in
Columbia these days and is not talk
ing much about politics.

AMERICAN LIVES
UNSAFE IN MEXICO.

San Antonio, Jan. 19.--Dr. John
Hunter, an American physician Of
Nogales, told the senate subcomnlit-
tee investigating the Mexican situa-
tion today he never had known of a
Mexican being punished for killing
an American in Mexico. "There has
been no safety for American life or
proptrey in Mexico since 1910," he
said.
DR.. Hunter was at Guadalajara
when the Americans occupied Vera
Cruz.

LITTLE POLITICAL
TALK CIRCULATING
to News and Courier.

Special to News and Courier.
Columbia, Jan. 19.-Usually
when the General Assembly,
meets in the year the primaries are
held, there is much talk of political
nature and maneuvering for position
but this session is an exception.
However, the Legislature is young
vet and there is plenty Of time for
the politica lbees to begin buzzing in
the lobbies and around the commit
tee rooms.
The only direct recent political an
nouncement is the statement of Col.
A. H. Marchent, of Orangeburg, that
he will offer for Adjutant General.
W. W. Moore, of Barnwell, the in
cumbent, said this morning that ne
would be in the race for reelection
on his record for upbuilding of the
National Guard.
: There has been no talk that Gov
ernor Cooper will be opposed and 1t
is more than probable that he will
20 into the primary without con-
tender. It is safe bet that no mat
ter who offers, if anyone does, ne
will be given second term. He has
made sane, conservative executive
has not indulged in spurts of radl-
calism and is intensely popular with
all classes. Many of his friends COM
plain that he does not get in the
lipnelight enough.
For Lieutenant Governor.
The only opposition which has de-
veloped toward the reelection OF
Junius T. Lilies, as Lieutenant Gov
ernor, who, if he runs, as it is, under
stood that he will, is Octavious
Cohen, an attorney of Charleston
and Monck's Corner, who made re-
markable race for the position in
1918, without attending but two of
the campaign. meetings. There is
some talk of Solicitor George War
rem, of Hampton, entering the race,
but Mr.. Warren has made no an
nouncement one way or the other
yet.
No opposition has been announced
or limited at against Samuel NJ.
Wolfe, Attorney General; S. T. Car
ter, State Treasurer; Rut L. Osborne
Comptroller General; W. Banks
Dove, Secretary of State; John E.
Swearingen, State Superintendent OF
Education, and B. Harris, Commits
sioner of Agriculture Commerce and
Industries, nor have these officials
stated whether they will offer again,
but it is more than likely that they
will.
For railroad commissioner it is al
most certain that Frank W. Shealy,
of Lexington, chairman will offer
for reelection and it is almost certain
that he will be opposed by D. l..
Smith, of Colleton, although nei.
ther man has announced his inten-
tions. Other possible candidates have
been spoken of for this position.
In the formum of national politics,
an effort is being made to get out
opposition to Senator E. D. Smith,
of Lynchburg, who will offer for re-
election. Senator Smith has made a
good many active enemies in South
Carolina and they want someone to
oppose him. Ex-senator Pollock, Of
Cheraw, is the most probable op-
ponent which Senator Smith will
have to contend with, and it is un-
derstood that the Chesterfield Coun-
ty politician will make known what
he is going to do within the next two
months. Col. William Banks, of
Columbia, has been approached to

GILBERT SAYS NAME
NOT HIS BUSINESS

When Harry w. Gilbert, who retired
from the board of public works Satur-
day, was told by the editor of local
newspaper that on certain day last
week he would be informed as to the
name of the coal dealer who is said to
have offered the city coal contract
last March at a figure much below the
price which the city was buying coal,
Mr. Gilbert, according to statement
made by him Saturday, did not seek to
learn the name of the dealer because
the newspaper editor insisted that he
accept the information as confidential.
Mr.. Gilbert stated Saturday that in
asmuch as a public charge had been
made against the board and the city
plant superintendent by the news
paper in question he thought that the
newspaper should also give full pub
LEFTY concerning the dealer making
the charge; that if he was told the
name of the dealer with the under
standing that he was not to repeat the
mans name no purpose would De
served by him receiving such contiden-
tial information.
The editor of the newspaper at a
meeting of citizens held Friday declar-
ed. after he had been sharply CRITICS
ed for his attitude in withholding the
name of the coal dealer, that he had
arranged to give such information to
Mr.. Gilbert one day last week, but on
the same day Mr.. Gilbert had announc'
ed his resignation and had told the
editor that he was no longer interested
in the matter.
Two other board members have
stated that when they asked the pup.
Usher of the newspaper the name OF
the dealer they were ordered from MS

have their day in court and may object
to any given levy or bond with the
right of appeal to the local county
council which is usually made UP OF
the best and most conservative bust
ness men,"
ak Law 10 Sc strengthened.

troll measure.
