DENIES
LOSS or PRESTIGE
Letters from Republican Leaders Sus-
tain. Talks with Cochran.

Greenwood, May 7-Joc w. Tolbert,
national Republican executive com
mittccman for South Carolina as we'll
Republican state chairman, was here
today and issued a strong denial OF
the statement sent out from Columbia
several days ago that certain promi-
ncnt Columbia business man was to
be the dispenser OF federal patronage
in this state and also aid tho assertion
that one c. G. Campbell OF Columbia
was to he collector Of internal revenue
was without warrant Of fact
TO support his statements he had
letters from q number OF Republican
leaders in Washington who all cx-
press confidence in Tolbcrt's recon-
mcndations and if any change in the
matter Of making appointments in this
state is contemplated these party lead
ers are evidently without knowledge
Of 1T themselves. They write Tolbert
in the most intimate way, showing
their close acquaintance, and all as
sure him OF their regards. One Of the
writer's, a man high in the party coun-
ellis, refers to certain former Demo-
cratic politician who has been referred
to as a referee" and tells Tolbert that
he had never heard Of the man before
This writer also refers to the fact that
a referee was talked Of for Georgia
but nothing came Of it,"
Persistent reports have been circu-
lated that the federal patronage in
this state was to be taken away from
STATE Chairman Tolbert, but not If
letters from party leaders in Wash
ington count for anything. The name
of former District Attorney Ernest f.
Cochran of Anderson was mentioned
in q story from Columbia few days
ago as being certain Of appointment
as district attorney for the western
district and also that he was to be
connected with the new Republican
party" being formed in this state Mr..
Tolbert was in conference yesterday
with Mr.. Cochran and was assured
that he knew nothing of any new party
and assured Tolbew that he looked
upon him as the head OF the party in
this state. The Cochran appointment,
IL made, Will be Tolbert nomination
for Tolbert has recommended Cochran
and Cochran Is in perfect sympathy
with the Tolbert faction.
