ABBEVILLE
ORDERLY DAY
AND BIG CROWD
Senator Smith Seemed To Be the
Favorite There-Some New
Features '?
Special Correspondent.
Abbeville, July 14.-The campaign
meeting hero today was one continu
ous chain of unexpected features
The governor himself offered the
mst, when he gave practically hlB en
tire time to a discussion of the parole
of R. A. Richie, who was convicted
for assault upon bis little thirteen
year old. adopted daughter.
Thoigh the governor consumed
thirty of hlB thirty-five minutes ii
'reading letters and other manuscripts
on which the parole was based, he
said this was neither an explanation
nor an apology. Nor was lt to bc
conni tl ered as a reply -to anything tha
had been said on the stump by op
ponents though this case was thc
. high light in tho Greenwood meeting
last Saturday. He did this, he s?jd.
in answer to lies that had been circu
lated in Abbeville county, and that
if it had not been for this, he woul<
not have come to Abbeville today. (
The governor said that Richie,
though technically paroled, was out
on a $5,000 bond, and that he could
be reincarcerated at any time, and
would be if hlB health so improved
that (t would not impose a burden on
the State to keep him.
Mr. Jennings added a new feature
when he read editorial comment
from The Yorkvllle Enquirer to the
.. effect i that Mopers Jennings and Pol
> . lock ' had . entered - the campaign -nev
- the. selfish ? tuotive behind It Wah
"probably Oipney-exper.Bea paid from
. .some other s?urc?. and a ?cod bondi 1
in addition." The. speaker said that
it the author was a gentleman, he
would furnish the proof as to the pre
arrangement, or retract lt with the
same policy. "Rut if *he does neither"
the sneaker added, "he is a contempti
ble, cowardly liar." As to the money
charge, 'the speaker said, .that euch
allegation could emanate "only from
the brain of a. low-down, degraded,
contemptible coward." , .
The mayor' of Sumter offered to
withdraw from the ra**e, and'in ad
dition to subscribe %5,000 to the Deaf
and Dumb Institute at Cedar Springt
if the editor will furnish any proof
as to the assertion.
Mr. Pollock ia running through
the "records" again today, found an
other Republican on tho governor's
,. staff. This latest discovery,' accord
ing to tho Ch er aw candidate, is of the
man who owned the Ktngstree paper
on Which Mr. James L. Sims of Orage
burg as a young man set type. It
was avowedly for this work that tho
' governor ' so strenously objected to
. JUr. Sims' - appointment as United
? States .marshal, and over which he
had had BO . many hard things to say
on many stumps in the present cam
paign.
Mr. Pollock speaker today called for
{ the first hand primary'. After sub
jecting the -governor's record to aH
severe grilling, Mr. Pollock asked
that all those who endorsed that rec
ord to show their hands. The speak
er anonuncet) that about fifteen shot
up Into the air. j When asked that all
those who did hot approve of that,
record to raise theirs there was a gen
eral fluttering ot hate and waving of
arms, while the grove behind thc
.court house echoed with applause.
Senator Smith was the first Speak
er, and was well received and gener
ously applauded.JfHe made today hie
usual s peech'lp dofenao of hts record,
wltfiout ari^ THio'ogy for working flvo
and one-hajf^ears In the interest of
the farmerjrk.. There were many apon
toneoua burstav*pf applause in re
sponse toi his approprlate jokes, when
he had cotfolqdod, he was presented
- with the unique gift of the campaign,
which was a Iou year's cotton stalk?
growth, with ali bolls open, and none;
picked, with the long staple locks,
hanging l?'?f from the hurra. There
was much applause, when. this wai.
passed up to the Stage.
The governor spoke directly after
-. ? the senato*. f, v .?? -
Senator Smith was the first speak
er. He began by saying/ that there
had boen/much comment that "Cot
ton" Smith, "Boll Wevir Smith, and
' "Cyclone** Smith had done nothing
If he didn't be thanked God that he
was there when the doing waa done.
He thea read the letter, from Senator
credit for tho Smith agriculture bill.
It was Hoke Smith whom the gover-.j
nor had said was the author. "Sena
tor E. D .Smith introduced the origi
nal bill", the tetter the Georgia sena
tor said, ' "and ' If *ii> ht?? given
me the lion's shore bf the credit (foi
amending and supporting the hill on
the floor/of, the s?pate) X. regret lt.
Too much credit cannot be given you
own Senator. E. D. Smith." He dis
cussed the measure till now in com
mittee conference, and which, when it
becomes law within the next few
days, will compel cotton dealer's to
deliver the rame grade of cotton as
contracts call for. "When you sell
middling, you deliver,middling, or its
equivalent, or you go to jail in coime

NOISY DEMONSTRATION UP
ON HIS ATTACK ON E.
D. SMITH
A LIVELY TIME
The Crowd Whooped 'Em Up for
Quite o While When This
Happened
(Special to The .Intelligencer.)
'Aiken, July 14.-The continued
calm of tlit> campaign for State of
fices was rudely broken when scenes
of dlr order were enacted by a crowd
of probably 1.000 people here today
following the denunciation of United
States 'Senator Billson D. Smith, by
John G. Richards, candidate for gov
ernor, thcrtly. before an otherwoihe
quiet meeting was brought to a close.
Factional interest was aroused to
a high pitch when Richards made his
usual declaration in favor of Gover
nor Blease for the United States sen
ate, which drew prolonged cheers. He
then began reading a statement at
tacking the statement credited to
Senator Smith that he had raised the
price of cotton.
Cries of "Hurrah for Smith." Hur
rah for Blease," "Hurrah for Rich
ards" came from the crowd.
. "Why did 'you raise the express
rates", came the cry from a man di
rectly'in front of Richards.
Lie Passed.
"You He", came the heated reply,
from the speaker.
. '"You are another", replied the un
known man, who was later learned i
tobe a resident of Blackville.
When the unknown man hurled
back this reply, Richards hastily
clutched' a drinking glass. and drew
as. tf to hurl .it at the interrupter.
A large number of excited persons
hs^yjseratthietTt npon;?te.sxand and
spoke ?O the crowd attrimntl?n o".
cure a nearing from Hi chard a, while
be continually repeated that he would
read his attack on Senator Smith "if
lt takes me until night."
After the unknown man had been
escorted from the crowd by a police
man, the crowd was finally quieted to
an extent and Richards read his
statement.
From John G. Cllnkscales came th.
unequivocal statement today that he
ls not advocating mate-wide prohi
bition. In reply to Lowndes J.
Browning, who called upon th<
Spartanburg candidate for a d?finit.**
of his .views.
"I believe South Carolina has suf
fered from the lack of constructive
legislation because of the UL_ue agi
tation of the liquor question, and 1
favor enforcement of the present law"
declared Cllnkscales.
That state wide prohibition is an
iBs'ue that should be brought into the
campaign for governor was asserted
by Charles A. Smith, who advocated
that idea.
Several excoriations of the "open
lawlessness in this state" was made
by Robert A. dooper.
Richard I. Manning, made state
menu- criticising the manner in which
Governor Brease has excerclsed the
pardoning power.
. He stressed law enforcement and
realization of .the educational advan
tages of the State by giving greater
appropriations to their financially
weaker. counties were among the oth
er issues of the camplagn.
Compulsory education .was urged by
John q. Cllnkscales, while other can
didates for governor * opposed any
form of complsory education or ad
vocated submission- to the people of
the local option form.
Among the candidates tonight the<
principal subject of conversation wan
the. sudden and entirely unexpected
outbreak of fae Hon ism here with evi
dences bf a Blease majority at the
meeting today.

? .
. At the last cession of the general
assembly, the governor vetoed . the j
section of the general appropriator
bill Which would have given tho. state
the right to borrow $6,000 for the ex
penses of the government, until thc
collection ot. the state . \xes. The
objeotlon of the gove; ..or was sus
tained by the house falling to vote
down the -veto' by a two-thirds ma
jority.
.. Acting upon tho request of state
treasurer Carter, the attorney gen
eral several days ago gave the opin
ion that "In anticipation of the col
lection of state taxes, the governor,
the state treasurer and the comptroll
er general are authorized to borrow
on the credit of the state aa much
money as may be needed to pay in

extensive and distastrous in American
railroading be averted. The result of
