1874 when William Aiken was elect
ed. In 1S4S ". B. Seabrooks Of
Charleston was governor. Years
elapsed before another Charlestonian
held the executives Office and in
1864 a. G. Magrath was in that pos
ition.
Since that time no Charlestonian
has been governor of the state. The
center Of population shifted rapidly
as the upcountry became settled, and
upcountry men voted for upcountry
candidates.
Gen. Wade Hampton, it is recalled,
was born in Charleston.
At the present time governors "go
into office on the even years; prior
to 1890, they were inaugurated on
the odd years.
The coming Of Mr. Harvey and his
family to Columbia is awaited with
interest. He is already known to ma
ny people in this city and commun-
ity and he will be given warm well
come on his arrival.

static. having been elected to that
office by the general assembly AT
this time Thomas B. Jeter of Union,
who had been president pro tenn Of
the senate, became lieutenant gov
ernor by reason of the advancement
of Mr.. Simpson to the governorship.
Gov. Hugh S. Thompson Of Colum-
bia resigned in 1886 to become as
sistant secretary of the treasury Of
the United States under Cleveland
and John C. Sheppard of Edgefeld
became governor.
In June, 1899, Gov. W. H. Ellerbe
of Marion died and was succeeded by
Lieut.. Gov. NJ. B. McSweeney of
Hampton county.
No more lieutenant governors be-
came chief executive until January
IA, 1915, when C. L. Blease resigned
and was succeeded by Lieut.. Gov.
Charles A. Smith of Timmonsville
: who held the office just five days un-
It'll R. l. Manning was inaugurated.
No Strangers
While Wilson G. Harvey is the first
Charlestnoian to occupy the guberna-
torial chair in many years, Charles
tonians are no strangers to the "feel'
of the chair as every one knows, for
in the early days: Charlestonians held
in their hands the srudder of the ship
of state, and list.of he early COVER
nors reads almost dixie Charleston
directory.
Beginning back in ITS, there was
Gov. Henry Laursns of Charleston,
and John Rutledge also of the city
by the sea and Rawlins Lo'vndes and
then John Rutledge again when the
constitution was changed. Then came
John Mathews, also a Charlestonian.
Following these .as governor came
Benjamin Guerard Of Charleston and
then Edward Rutledge and John
Drayton, so that from IT'S to 1902,
the governors of South Carolina were
from Charleston.
Henry Middleton Of Charleston was
governor early in the 18th century
and in 1913 Joseph Aston Of George
town was governor; then can1e John
Geddes of Charleston and little Ia

FIRST CHARLESTONIAN
SINCE JUDGE MAGRATH
Wilson C. Harvey Breaks Long Alb
sence From Governors Chair
When He Takes Office

The State, 13.
When Wilson G. Harvey of Char
lesion seats himself in the chair of
the governor of South Carolina,
which event will take place in the
very near future, he will be the first
Charlestonian to warm said chair
since 1865 when Judge A. G. Magrath
of Charleston was governor.
The resignation of Governor Coop
er, who has been appointed on the
federal farm loan board to succeed
A. F. Lever, automatically promotes
Lieutenant Governor Harvey to the
office of governor. When he be-
comes governor, Senator Alan John
stone of Newberry, president pro tenn
of the senate. acts as lieutenant gov
ernor. When Senator Johnstcne be-
comes lieutenant governor, Newber-
ry county will have no senator in the
state senate, which will necessitate
the election in Newberry county of
a senator.
The fact that a man from Charles
ton will be in the gubernatorial
chair has attracted considerable at
tention and has served to arouse in
terest in other cases in which the
lieutenant governor has succeeded to
the governors chair.
