HAVE YOUR CATTLE TESTED
FOR TUBERCULOSIS

On Monday, September 11th, we
will have man in this county for the
purpose of testing cattle. We will be
in Chesterfield Monday afternoon to
do this work. Those wishing their cat
tie tested can have it done free of
charge by having their cows at Mr..
Porter's stables by P. M, Monday.
If the people of this community
will cooperate with us in this matter
by assembling their cattle at this
place the amount of work can be
done much quicker and a greater
number of people can be reached.
This is very important. The pure
bred bulls brought into the county
and this section cannot be served to
cows that have not been tested.
This work will begin at McBee
Monday morning, the 11th and with
the number of places on this trip to
visit it will be impossible to go from
farm to farm and do the work.

81 Rapists Included

1t is not possible, without great detail, to give
the describe the crimes of these Grimm
ais, large part of whom were negroes. The list
includes notorious criminals, notable among
them being portland Ned" the safecracker, who
escaped through the Governors office while Fed
eral officers waiting to arrest him for other
crimes.
That briefly, is the record that Ex- Governor
Blease has defended bodily, on many occasions;
that is the record on which he has prded himself
during the present campaign. Do the voters of
South Carolina, the law-abiding and the orderly
inclined, share with him his pride in the achieve
ment?
The first duty of the executive is to uphold
laws. Clemency is act to be done discreetly
when the law has evidently miscarried, or when
there is special for the extension of mer-
cy in peculiar cases. How many of the 1,743 cases,
referred to above, during the brief period of four
years, come within these conditions?
Ex-Governor Blease has never repented pub
licly, of any of his pardons. On the contrary, he
has gloried in them What other conclusion can
be drawn from his words than that his ideas about
upholding the laws the same hereafter if he
were elected, as they were while he governor?
Has he given any indication that, if in office,
he would not pardon criminals in the same way,
and at the same rate, that he did before?
The outstanding fact, the conspicuous accom-
plishment, of the administration of Coleman L.
Blease, Governor of South Carolina, the
pardoning and committing of 1,743 criminals-the
majority of them killers, rapists feonious
saulters and incendiaries.
Can the voters of South Carolina find in this
good reason for committing into the hands again
office of so grave and high responsibility?
These facts are taken from the records in the
office of Secretary OF State.

In January, 1912, in his first report of "Par-
dons, Paroles and Commutations," during the first
year of his administration, Governor Blease told
the General Assembly:
81 take the greatest delight in saving that
have pardoned, paroed and commuted 317 people
during the time that have been governor"
During the three years that followed ending
in January, 1915, with the "blanket pardon of
S2s persons, signed in red ink by Governor Blease
as he vacated his office, the total was run up to
1,743.
In such detail as it is practicable to give the
record of them, these pardons, paroles and COM
mutations, persons duly convicted and
sentenced for the following crimes:
Murder, Manslaughter and Assault and Bat
terry Observation-Disclosures. l, ,OO3
Larcency, Rape and Miscellaneous Crimes 6OS
Violations of the Liquor Laws ........ 1874
Total 1,743
In the first group, the pardoned who had been
convicted of murder and manslaughter far exceed
ed the number who had been convicted OF assault
and battery
In the second group, the pardoned who had
been convicted of arson and rape far outnumbar
those convicted of miscellaneous crimes.
He pardoned 80 convicted of rape by the
courts, the majority of whom were negro rapists.
Of the 828 covered in the "blanket pardon"
ali had been convicted of murder and manslaugh-
ter-of taking human life. These were in addition
to the many guilty of these crimes who had been
pardoned outright, whose sentences had been
committed, separately, prior to the signing of the
blanket pardon"

SPRING VIOLETS

Spring is rising from winter graves
In woodlands, brooks, and rivulets-
The earth is bursting into waves
OF myriads of spring violets.
Countless millions Of flowers rise,
While meadows their tapestries
spread,
But violets first with glad blue eyes
Come to greet spring from win
ter's bed.
Soon leaf and blossom hang their
frills
At the vernal blush Of peach blow
In valleys and forested hills,
OF spring verdure and violet glow.
In fields, meadows and woodlands
deep,
The first flower of hill and plain
Comes 10 break winters spell Of
sleep
To hearts bring hope and faith
again.
Can II be that flowers and grass
Yearly rise and so surely bloom
That man must sleep as the years
pass,
While violets rise from their tomb
