One day last week Senator Blease
of Newberry, arose ia tho State Sen
ate to a question ol' "personal priv
ilege" and made some remarks re
garding the testimony given before
tho state dispensary commission hy
Messrs. Lewis Parker and IO. A.
Smythe to the effect that he had been
employed by Lanallan & Son lo rep
resent them before the former board
ot directors of the state dispensary.
Ile said :
I wish to ask the Semite to allow
to ho published in the journal live
affidavits which l hohl.
'Mast before the campaign of I OOO,
Mr. President, the report was circu
lated that one in the employ of the
Stale was aa agent tor a liquor
house. 1 had not icy idea ii' tho
world, slr. thal (hat. meant iee, and 1
Hover thought so until Senator Till
man, riding ou a railroad train one
day. was asked tho positive question
as to who ho referred to mid he said
io this gentleman, whom I suppose
he thought was a very intimate friend 1
of his mid not a friend of mine, (hat
Jilease was the man whom he meant.
"l Immediately sat down and
wrote to the different gentlemen and
asked if il. was true, and if it wasn't
true to send me an affidavit. I read
those allidavils al I nion at the cam
paign mooting two years ano.
.Inst, abott! tin.' opening of this
campaign, this year, just after I had I
something to say about Mr. Avery
Patton, along with this winding upi
commission, again this matter is
brought up. Tho governor ls from 1
Greenville, Mr. Avery Pallon, of tho
wiadiug-ap commission, is from
Greenville, both of the witnesses are)
from Greenville, tho correspondent of
the News and Courier Is from G roon- !
ville. Hight at tho opening of this
campaign of 1908 here comes tho
governor with hts-I want to bo mild
and 1 want to be polite-his wit
nesses and his appointee Patton of
the windlug-up commission, all from
Greenville-?
"And In addition to that a news
paper correspondent from Greenville,
and if ii ain't a political conspiracy I
have never seen one ;i llOWSpapor
reporter from Groi nvlllo county mak
ing his report come out, hended
'Please Hired by Li (pl or I louses,'
They put a question mark after that,
and lt is well that they did. I
"Now, Mr. President, I want to !
thank the Columbia State once In my
lifo for being fair, honest and <
Straightforward in lids transaction; :
not only the correspondent in this
chamber, but the man who ls in :
charge of that o di CO, willi tho way J
it is put in the paper this morning: <
'Please is Alleged to Have Peen tho j
Man.' i
"I am not afraid of this matter, i
Mr. President, because 1 have never t
represented any whiskey house In my
life in the capacity of a sales agent
lind tho people of South Carolina
after this thing was circulated and
when I had hardly linio to answer
it rave ino nearly 18,000 votes for
governor; and Hits sumiller Gov. Au-j(
the conspiracy between him and his
Bel will answer to those people for
Greenville alli?s and newspaper cor
respondent, lie will aol only an
swer politically, but lie will also ail
swer to me hs a man, face lo face,
be liO governor or bo ho what he
may.''
Senator Please here I ead an ri III
davit from Sam J, Lanallan saving
that he never told Lew ls W. Parker
Or any (Uber person thal Colo L.
Please was in his employ lo look
after his Interest in tho whiskey busi
ness ill Routh Carolina; and as a mat
ter of tact he did not have Cole L.
Please so employed.
"Now. Mr. President, this affidav
it was published ill the summer of
1 {IO0 La?aban was then living and
Parker dbl aol deny it, br attempt to
have La?aban retract it. Now Lan
allan is dead and can not speak; and
tho Greenville witness shows up.
Why? Because I hit Greenville's Pat
ton'and rim a candidate for governor
against Greenville's Ansel. Yes, slr,
that ls my belief as to the reason.
If a man. Mr. President, says If
my good friend, the senator from
Richland Brt.Vs that the senator from
Bamberg told him thus and so, and
If I go to the senator from Bamberg
and he says that the senator from
Richland is a liar, what moro eau I
do? Tho tight lfl between them.
Equally so tho fight In this ense ls
between I illiahail and Parker; and
why did Parker wait until Lanallan
was dead? I flo not say that Parker

There wns another personal priv
ilege statement In (ho State noo
nie Tuesday, anent the dispensary
winding uh commission and Atto/ney
W. V. Stevenson, over tho irrepressi
ble Clark purchase. Senator John
son was tho speaker, he said:
t "Mr. President: In my remarks on
Thursday last on bill No. 609, Mr.
Christensen's bill, to appropriate the
sum rf $15,000 .to enable Mr. Lyon
to Keciire counsel to prosecute alleg
ed graftors, 1 stated In opposition of
tho 1)111 that tho investigating com
mittee had already spoilt $20,000 of
tho people's money without any re
sults. That tho winding-up commis
sion had spent $50,000 during the
year of their existeneo, and if state
ments and charges In tho public
prints were true and to be rolled
upon, in refusing to accept an offer
that was said to have berni made by
a firm or corporation outside of tho
slate, to take over (he entire slock
of liquors, wini's, otc, Including dead
stock, odds and ends, at theil' origi
nal invoice price, and having subse
quently sold tho stock at a discount
of '..'o per cont, ou tho dollar, which
resulted in another loss of $200,000,
lo the people of South Carolina, I
did not say how or for what pur
pose tho $50,000 was spent, but, I
Simply said (hat it had been spent
by the commission, and any state
ment to the contrary ls false. Hut
it now develops, and ls shown by
their own record that. $59,389.56 was
spent by them, llisloao of $50,000 as
stated in my argument, and '. ao $15,
?00, given them by order of Judge
Pritchard, and the $20,000 spent by
Un? Investigating ?-01111101 tee. togeth
er with nie $?5,omi, carried by the
Christensen bill, will make an Ag
gregate of the enormous sum of

dispensary fund thal has been >. >t
ten away with in one way or another,
which ls over one ciglll of the total
amount of the entire assets of the dis
pensary, . ?
"Now comes one, W. K. Steven
son, who is said to bo the attorney
Tor the commission, and who claims
that no such offer was evoi made ex
cept In a jocular way, by a Mr. Hull,
of Peoria, 111.
"This alleged offer and loss caused
thereby will however, be investigat
ed, but Mr. Stevenson says, if such
an offer had bren made lt could not
have been accepted under (he act.
This ls a most remarkable proposi
tion to come from a man who claims
to be a lawyer, but not altogether
surprising lo Other?; In view of the
fact that if au offer had berni made,
and accepted, lt would have been fol
fowed by (he loss ol' some fal loga1
fees. I do not believe, however, (here
ls a real lawyer In South Carolina,
who would read the act creating the
commission ami place any such con
struction upon lt.
"Now 1 have presented the facts
ind beures relative to (he matter,
lltal as they appear, and have repro
luced my remarks upon tho subject
inst as they were made, and any
dlargo or Intimation of unfairness on
ny part ls false and without I'ounda
iotl no matter hy whom made. I
\ill further state that I am res poll

stone, W. ll. Nindi. John Culhoun
Otis and One or Two Others.
The Columbia correspondent of
the Augusta Herald says up to a few
days ago tho probability has been
strong almost to the point of certaiu
1.? that Governor Ansel would glide
into a BCCOIUI terni without opposi
Lion, as was the good fate of Gov.
Hayward, bbl the gathering of the
legislature, and its ucl lons recently,
luivo wroughl several radical, cruel
changos In this program.
Tho practical certainly now 1B
thal the gubernatorial ruco this sum
mer will be an extremely lively if
?pt sensational one, willi half a doz
en men in the race, willi a great va
riety of liquor platforms from which
lo choose.
Iliense of Xe wherry.
Slate Senator Cole \J. Illonso, of
Newberry authorizes your corrospou
ileni io formally announce bis can
didacy for governor. His liquor plat
form is the present local option sys
tem with a license feature for those
counties that desire this way of hand
ling liquor. Ho ran for governor
when Ansel was elected, and in spite
of tho unpopularity of the stale dis
pensary system, which was his plat
form at the time, he received nearly
18,000 votes lu th race where I he
voto was split up among a number
of candidates. I! has been thought
that he would offer for le-olcclloi) as
senator, but developments of tao past
few weeks have decided him other
wise, in spit" ol lits politics being
distasteful lo a large body of tho son
nie he has for years been one of the
smartest and most influential mem
bers of lt.
.lohn (?. Itiehards.
lt ls also practically certian, unless
there are further radical changes in
tho political situation, that Repre
sentative .lohn t?. Richards, for a
number of years one of the house
lloor leaders for the state dispensary,
will be In the race for governor
against Ansel on a state wide pro
hibition platform. His fight through,
teu continuous years for a repeal of ?
the agricultural lien law bas brought
him into prominence on account of
the adverse action of the senate on
that measure.
Urged to Kim. '
A number of delegations lin ve come
to him and offered their support and
urned bim to run promising to work
for liim regardless of his liquor plai
form. Some of these have urged him ?
10 run for lieutenant governor against ,
Pres?d?nl of tho Senate McLeod on .
account of the latter's vote against ,
i he Crouch Hen law repeal bill In the ?
senate. Hut although Mr. McLeod's ,
vote against this bill was applauded ,
ni tho lloor of the senate at I lie I j
lim by the ant I-repeal forces his ac-n
Lion is said by his friends to have h
been misconstrued, that ho was vot
ing against the Crouch bill In order
lo get the Richard's house bill passed
so as to hasten enactment of r< eal
<\ C. I'Vut horst Ono.
C. C. Featherstone, of Laurens, n
former cn nd id alo for governor, hat
inion 111 Columbia several days hold
ing conferences, and it is predicted
that ho will announce himself for
governor on a state wide prohibition
platform in a few days. Ile bas linen
making prohibition speeches in dif
forbid paris Of tho slate recently.
Tho friends of Mr. Richards and
oilier prohibition candidates hayo
gently In (limit Cd lo him that he han
read himself out of tho pro
hibition folios by his Interview pub
lished recently to tho effect that ihe
next chang? in the lli|U?r law should
bb to dellaro II slate of prohibit ion
and allow such counties as desire it
lo volo In dispensaries. Ills attitude
ihe past year has been construed that
?IO would HOI bppo.&C Mr. Ansel, bill ii

Representative Nash, of spartan
burg, a life-long prohibitionist, i. ex
pectetl to announce his candidacy for
governor soon tts the legislature ad
journs. ills friends say th il tho rea
son he does not announce now i
that that course would reduce his
Influence and hamper him in his work
on tho floor of the house.

torial possibility is said to bo Repre
sentative .John Calhoun Otts, of
Cherokee, a former dispensary advo
cate, but lust, year a champion of bi

Ansel's Platform.
lt lu thought highly probable tho!
Governor Ansel himself will switch
to a state wide prohibition platform
bo fore ho tiles his pledge next .lune.
He was elected ou a local option plat
form, but he has always been a work
er for prohibition, choslng local op

SHOT AT HIM.
An Attempt Made to Assassinate
the Marshal of North
Wk* is a HOM of th Dat* lt. A.
Jeffcoat, Win? Was Asiinsnhinlnl a
Abort Time Aj?o.
It lb reported that an attempt, wan
made a few nights SRO to assassinate
Mr. William I). Jeffcoat, a KOO ol'
Mr. lt. A. Jeffcoat, who was shol
and killed from ambush a few
months ago. Mr. Jeffcoat is the
chief of police of North, aad it was
thero that tho atteiapt on his life
was made.
It is reported that Prof. Carl
Schoenberg and Mr. Jeffcoat entered
tho wait lng room nt the depot of the
Seaboard Airline Hallway a little af- '
ter dark. Tho walting room was j
well lighted ami so was tho plat- j
form outside. They did not. notice
any one about, and had not the least
suspicion that an assassin was lurk
lng In the darkness. Hat he was, so
it Booms.
Prof. Schoonburg remained in the
waiting room but a short time when
he left, leaving Mr. J off coat alone. As
soon as Prof. Schoonburg was well
out of Die way, some one opened lire
on Mr. Jeffcoat from some colton
seed houses nearby, but fortunately
none of the shot blt Mr. Jeffcoat. A
search was made Immediately for
tho would-be assassin, but he had
Sotten away.
There is no doubt bat the Intention
was to assassinate W. 1). Jeffcoat, I
and possibly tho same party who kill- j
ed his fattier shot at Mr. Jeffcoat.
Sooner or later tho assassin will be
caught and punished. The attack
doesn't seem to bo on tho people of
North, but is a prolongation of the
feud that has existed in the Jeffcoat
family for several years. Such
thelngs are unusual la (his country.
There is said to bo a VOry strong
suspicion as to who the assassin is.
There are more than one person con
nected with the dastardly affair, ac
cording to a report that is being cir
culated. Kvory effort should be made
to bring them to justice by tho prop
er officers. If the parties are caught
it will go hard with them.
Tim good people ol' North should
not bo subjected to any such outrage
and we hope it will not again occur.
Tho assassin is after Jeffcoat and no
one else. If this was not. the case
he would not have waited until Prof.
Schoenburg got away before bring
on Jeffcoat. Tho affoir has caused
considerable talk Ia and about North.
