State Executive Committee to
Hear Charges of Fraud in
Recent Primary.
COLIMBIA. S Sept. 9 With fix
meeting nf the sub-committee of seven
of the state < xecutive committee on
Wednesday at noot tn the state library
will rest in larg, part the fat' of the
South Carolina primary. an institution
created by Hon. R. R. Tillman when
governor of the state in 1890. and also
the decision as to whether Cole L.
Rlea.se is re-elected governor or wheth
er he and Judge Ira R Jones win enter
the general election as candidates for
tjie same office, both representing the
Demecra.de party. The committee is
investigating election fraud and it may
be that it will find enough illegal vot«;
to cause the defeat for renomtnation
of Governor Hlea.se.
It is generally conceded that there
are four courses open to the committee
•—Io find illegal votes and throw them
out, in which case a sufficient number
may be thrown out to cause the elec
tion of Judge Jones and the overthrow
of the apparent nomination of Govern
or Blease; to take cognizance of the
many filed protests and allegations of
fraud and declare the first primary void
sttd-ordeir it to be held again, in which
case a second primary would follow two
weeks later; to declare Governor Rlease
the nominee in spite of the many pro
tests against tha recent primary, or
rise refuse to set aside the party con
(rtHucion and to order that the two can
didates enter the general election, the
party having no nominee, and there
battle for the governorship. The last
seems 1 n ev 1 table.
Likely to Spilt State.
South t'arolina is in the midst of a
greet political reformation. There is
much speculation to the effect that the
settlement of the present situation will
divide the state into two political par
ties
The committee which meets Wednes
day will make a thorough investigation
of the charges that have been made
against the recent primary and will de
termine whether there were enough le
gal vote east for Governor Biease to
dei lare him renominated. If the com
mittee finds this to he the ease. It will
de. lare Blea.se the party nominee.
There is much speculation as to the
authority the committee has and as to
whether or not the probe will mean that
there will he no second primary and
that the candidates will have to enter
Independently into the general election,
rhe rules of the Democratic party state
that "a second primary, when necessa
ry. shall be held two weeks after the
first." and there is a general belief that
the investigation for fraud, which will
not begin till Wednesday, the day aft
er lhe second primary date, a** pro
vided in the party constitution, will
mean that theme will be no seentid pri
mary this year.
To Reform Primary System
The primary system of South Caro
lina Is such that fraud is easily prac
ticed and often impossible of detec
tion. Reports of fraud have been made
from many counties and the county
committees are making investigations
tn assist the work of the state com
mittee. hYtr the past, ten days there
twis been such an outcry against the
primary system that it is almost Cer
tain that there will never again be
held another along tlie same line as
that of two woks ago. The committee
Which hae in hand the election probe
will likely make suggestions to the
state cotrveartian lie to the abolition or.
what is more likely, the restriction of
the primary.
30 Who Were Not

ANDERSON, F. C.. Sept 9. It ts
stated that in one voting precinct in
this county 80 men whose names were
not on the club rolls voted in the re
cent primary and other alleged

before a sub-committee, and later be
fore the full county executive commit
