Much of this genealogical correspondence took place with his cousin Annie Homer Wilson and pertains to the Homer family in Nova Scotia, Canada. Hutchisson died in December 1993. Scope and Contents: This collection contains etching plates, news clippings, a scrapbook, and the business stamp of Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. In addition, the collection is made up of a wide selection of correspondence, both business and private, contracts, building specifications, blueprints, and other related architectural documents.

THE 1938 DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL PRIMARY The 1938 Democratic Senatqrial Primary in South Carolina epitomized the best and the worst of South Carolina politics in the first half of the twentieth century. In this heated contest between the fiv..e-term incumbent, an incumbent governor, and the. ·leading state senator, personalities, and not issues, became the focal points of the campaign. For instance, race was not really an issue because blacks could not vote in the Democratic primary at that time. Althougli all three candidates subscribed to the doctrine of "White Supremacy," Senator Smith invoked the doctrine on numerous occasions as an effective oratorical tool to liven up his audiences. During two.and a half months of continuous stump speeches during the hot summer of 1938, the three . candidates attacked each other so much that even jaded South Carolina newspaper · editors lamented the "mud slinging" campaign.

AClyburn: TRIBUTE A Tribute Toto Retiring RETIRING Senator Ernest SENATOR Fritz Hollings ERNEST "FRITZ" HOLLINGS SENATOR JOSEPH R. BIDEN, JR.* When I was elected to the Senate in 1972, I quickly pledged that Fritz Hollings would be my role model. Little did I know that I would get what I wished for. Like Senator Hollings, I spent most of my 30 year career as the junior senator from my home state. For 28 years, I served with Delaware's senior Senator William Roth, and for 36 years, Fritz Hollings served with senior Senator Strom Thurmond. South Carolina has been blessed to have almost a century of combined service from two of the giants in the history of the United States Senate. Fritz Hollings' retirement next year will bring to an end the career of one of the finest and most dedicated public servants ever to serve in the nation's capitol.

However, the modern iteration of the party is frequently dated to 1876, when the election of Wade Hampton III as governor brought an end to the state’s Republican Reconstruction government and ushered in an era of almost absolute Democratic dominance in the state. As Don Fowler writes in the South Carolina Encyclopedia: Although there were vast differences of ideology, style, and sophistication among state Democrats, one overriding, enduring value and purpose held it together: maintaining a segregated party and society and ‘keeping the Negro population in their place,’ as well as an intense aversion to the Republican Party. Conflicts within the Democratic Party included elites versus populists, lowcountry versus upstate, mill workers versus mill owners, and conflicts of personality among political leaders. Without question, the dominant, controlling influence in South Carolina politics (and therefore the Democratic Party) was the established, conservative economic and social order.1 The Democratic Party of South Carolina (DPSC) exercised near-complete control over the state’s political scene through World War II.
