preferred that we should go on con-
trolling and directing the education
of our children and having such text
books used as desired, and especially
in the matter of history.
The bonus was then discussed and
Mr.. Doninick stated that he held the
same views on this question that he
did two years ago, and that he stated
his reasons for that position in every
county in the district, and the people
had given their endorsement by Civ
ing him a majority vote in each
county in the district, but as that is
the only question upon which there
seems TO be a difference Of opinion
among the candidates we have asked
Mr. Doninick to write out his views
on the subject and we will be glad to
publish the views and the reasons
for those views from the other c.;n-
diGatc5 if they Will furnish them.
Mr.. McCravy said it was a real
pleasure for him to address 4 New
berry audience. His great gtad
father was the first man ever elected
sheriff n Newberry county. His
mother was born in Newberry. 1t was
while his father was living at Jalapa
and held some position with the rail
road that Confederate flag which
was carried to the front by Captain
Warren Peterson, was made by his
mother from silk dress of hers. Mr..
Dominick was his personal friend
and he expected that he would be
such friend when the campaign was
over, that he would not bring in the
discussion personal matters bat that
he would discuss the public regard
of Mr.. Dominick.
He was in favor Of America for
Americans and would restrict i'm
migration. That at the present time
IA per cent Of the population of the
United States was foreign born and
SO per cent of the population CT New
York was foreign born.
Nh Dcminick las said 20 many
things that he endorsed that he felt
like clapplrg his hands. He cndors-
ed the position of Mr.. Dominick on
the tariff and the farm bloc and ma
ny other things. He thought the
farm bloc was good thing. It was
this that saved the war finance
board. He was opposed to the ex-
change where was bought and rold
many times the amount of cotton
that was grown, and that should be
stopped.
Labor disturbance was the worst
since the days Of Cleveland when he
called out the army. He thought the
main trouble was misunderstand-
ing and he believed in compulsory
arbitration. He wanted to go to
congress to serve the people, and he
wanted especially to be there JUS.

in Newberry, but that he used to
come here very frequently with his
father, Yancey Sherard, to attend
base ball games, and he was no
stranger to Newberry. He said we
Should know cur history. There are
no great changes need in our laws,
but the thing to Go was to live in
accordance with the laws we had. A
man VIII make no better officer than
he makes a citizen. We should all
work together for that which is best
for the country. This is an agricul-
tural state, but Thousands Of people
are leaving the farm. and unless we
can get for the farmer sympathetic
support from legislation there viii
be more to leave the farm. He crit
cizcd the federal reserve board for
debating the currency at the time
it did, ard held that responsible for
much Of our financial trouble. He
was in favor of the bonus. He
thought the government should fur
nish calcium arsenate to the farmer
at cost.
Mr.. Sherard said he was d srr3du-

Philippines and also farm demon
