There will be preaching in the Presbyte rian church next Saturday and Sunday. As we go to press a match game of ball is being played between the boys of Forest an and Manning. Remember that the town tax books close on the 1st of September, and exec-itions will be issued for all delinquents. Attention is called to the advertisement in another column of town lots for sale at Remini andi Pinewood. The offers are great. The small boys of this place went to For eston last Wednesday and played a match game of base ball with the Foreston boys. i The result was in favor of Foreston by a score of 18 to 22. Fannie Kelley, an old colored woman, died on the Lesesne place near town Sunday night. An inquest was held by Coroner TSowe. the jury returning a verdict of death from natural causes.

The Manning Times will this fall have another of those popular Grand Gift Distri butions, in which $25 in gold, a sewing ma chiie, and many other valuable gifts will be distributed among our subscribers who are paid to or beyond Sep. 1, 1891. Kalisky has just received a fine lot of trunks and valises, also all kinds of school books. There is a young man in town that is constantly letting people know that "little Annie Rooney" is his sweetheart, as though they gave a fig who his sweetheart is, but if the fellow is telling the truth then Annie Eoney is to be pitied and should be warn ed against this chap=-he's a flirt. Fresh and gennine Turnip Seed, all vari eties, at Dinkins & Co.'s. Maj. L. H. DesChamps has received a let ter from the Sibley Mtg. Co., of Augusta, Ga., offering to furnish a first grade of cot ton bagging, 44 inches wide and 4pound to the yard, for 15 cents a yard at the mills. Any one dcsiring to bey this bagging may communicate with Maj. L. H. DesChamps, Pinewood; or direct Nwith the factory. Fresh arrival of potatoes. onions, and su gar cnred hams at Kalisky's. Phillis Mack, an old colored woman who for some time has been considered some what demented, strayed off last Wednesday night and has not been heard of since. Her daughter has been searching for her ever since, but without success. It is now feared by her friends that she wandered into the swamp and died of starvation and exposure. Just received, fresh and genuine Turnip Seed, at Dinkins & Co.'s. About two weeks ago Sumter Allen struck Sydney Johnson vith an axe, and has since been dolging arrcst. Last Saturday while Allen was enjoying a game of base ball some one informed Depnty Ponneey of his where abouts. who imamediiately went to the ball grounds and pounned upon the dodger. 'Tri al Jnastice Benahow had a preliminary hear ig of the matter Monday, and in default of bail Allen was committed to jail. One jar of Westmoreland's egg cnstard for puddlings and pies together with three glass dishes for 50 cents at Kalisky's. Sometime ago the town decided to open a new street to run through the lands of Mrs. L. M. Barfield and others to the depot. thereby giving a street for the convenience of people living beyond Ox Swamp. Intend ant Bradhami was authorized to purch'ise the right of way, but when he, found that the price asked was more than it was worth, he submitted the matter to the council for their consideration, and they decided not to purchase the right of way at the very high price asked. The intendant is anxious to have this street opened as it would be of great convenience to a number of persons hauling to and from the depot, and it would also open up a number of building lots and otherwise improve the town. Buy your Turnip Seed from J. GI. Din kins & Co.'s Drug Store. An Anti Conference. In the Furstenburg hall last Saturday a number of gentlemen from different sections of the county congregated, and held a pri vate meeting. We dlid not learn who had the honor of presiding over this august body, nor what the object of the meeting was, but baying the honor of being acquaint ed with these gentlemen and knowing the subject that is now agitating their minds, we can safely say that they did not congre gate privately for the puipose of organizing a joint stock company, a bank, a trust, or any kind of industrial enterprise by which the laboring man would get more work and the merchant more trade. No, these gentle. men were weighted down with politics, and being strong and powerfully of the Anti Tillman persuasion we think it likely that at their little private consultation, caucus, onference, or whatever it was, they wanted to know "who would bell the Tillman cat;" and as we believe that the conference was of political significance we imagine that a plan of action was formulated for the con vention next Friday, and we also imagine that bottles of eloquence were opened; and in order to carry out the resolvable mania they adopted a resolution resolving to be resolute in purpose of preventing TLillnman from being governor. Dishonest Politics. Last Saturday at the Jordan club meeting a paper was read, the first part of which was a nonice signed by D. G. Shorter, J. M. Shorter, and R. H. Gaymon in which they requested that their names should be strick en from the Jordan club roll. Below this was a certificate, signed by .J. M1. Shorter and R. H. Gaymon, in which it was stated that they did not desire their namnes strick en fromn the club roll, and that their signa tures to the notice above had been obtained by gross and malicious misrepresentations. Dr. S. C. C. Richardson's name was in some way connected with this paper, probably be cause he had carried the paper to Mr. Shorter's to be signed, and it was stated that the misrepresenatation was, if Tillman should be elected all the p~roperty of the rich would be divided out among the poor farmers. As Mr. Shorter is possessed of considerable property, he was, it is claimed, thus influenced to sign the certificate to leave the club. In yesterday's News and Courier are afiMavits from the three gen tlemen above first named, in which they swear that no such gross and malicious misrepresentations were made to them or infuenced them to sign the first notice; and 'they also state that they were not in any wis influenced by Dr. Richardson to sign the first notice; and Messrs. J. M. Shorter and R. H. Gaymon further state that they did not know what they were signing when they signed the second certificate, but sup posed it to be simply a certificate that they desired to remain uienjbers of the Jordan There is something about this transaction that looks exceedingly fishy, and shows a iece of dishonest politics, for which sonme bdy is iesponsible. No one for a moment ould believe that Dr. Richardson was aity of so dishonorable an act, as in any way to grossly and maliciously deceive a fellw mn an nd the Doctor's many frends are naturally indignant at the charge. Somebody is, however, as we said above, re sponible, and we think it is due both to Dr. Richardson anzd to the members of the .Jordan club that the matter lhe properly in vestigated. The aflidevits are, however, as complete a vindication of Dr. ltichardson as he could desire, though it is to be gr-eatly regretted that his name should indiscreetly have been given so unenviable an d uncalled for publicits as to publish these affidavits in a paper out of the county, and it was done without the knowledge or consent of th neor nd eatl in his reret Trmnity Allance. Trinity Alliance will meet the first Satur day in Septembec, and all members are re quested to be present, as an clec:ion of cffi eers will take place.

Sr.vr., Aug. 25.--It has ben said that the -cye i: never satisfied with seeing noi the ear with hearing." This is pretty iiinh the case withr your correspondent. It would be utterly imnposille to describe a recent visit made to Vanis on the 21st over the C. S. & N. Railro i, to affiliate with brotlher Masons in a 'Masonic pienic. Ouir pirty from Silver was greatly augmented as we boarded the train. Some from Snmter and others picked up from Silver added to the pleasure of the brethren. Col. Fowler was aboard and seemed to pososs all the reqni sites not only of a railroad man but also of a Mason. Sumter's Anditor, Capt. Ddlgar, .\r. Altamont Moses, Mr. 3lartin. who is auditor for the road, Mr. Rosendorf, Mr. Levy, J. 11. Mahoney, and your scribe con stituted the visitors. A cordial reception awaited us from every Mason, in fact Dr. Sheridan, and the Worshipful Master, Brother Avinger, were all enticing in their efforts to make the occasion pleasant. The colored brass band from Sumter was on hand, and charmed the spectators with fine music as they headed the Ilaonic pro cession to the beautiful grove, sone half mile distant. As we gathered around the stand and looked upon the faces of the fair and lovely women we could but exclaim, what a beautiful scene. Speeches weire nmade by Brothers Moses, Delgar, Fowler, Sanders, and Thomas. The dinner was most bonn tiful. The evening was spent in social con versation. The hour at last came for the pleasant good-by, and we were soon aboard the train. We stopped at Holly Hill, a small town, but rapidly growing to a city. It is incor porated with its most objectionable feature, two bar rooms. The inhabitants are peaeta ble and quiet, except now anid then when some one gets on a bender that forces the policemen to assert their proper authority. This is our first visit to Holly Hill since a town. When a boy we visited these grounds but years have passed since that time, and heads have grown gray, so that many of our kinsmen did not know us. To say something of our home matters. We looked in on Silver the 23rd. Delegates were elected to the county convention to meet on the 29th; the same sent before weire again electel. The colored people had a large picnic, attended by several hundre d persons. Dancing with them seened to be the ruling passion. Their deportment was quiet and orderly. County polities is hot; caudidates are still looming up. The field is full of them. What will be the result is easily to be seen. Cotton picking is all the go. Messrs. E. P. and A. C. Briggs are putting in operation large machinery to gin cotton, also to crush cotton seed. They have also estiblished an ag-ncy to buy cotton seed. The ladies of Silver have concluded to give the public the last treat for the season, a grand festival of ice cream, &c.. for the benefit of the church, on Saturrdiv the 3tth. The dIrawing for the silver watch will :lo take place at the same time. Those who have chances are invited to he pr'esent aid witness the drawngr. T Summerton News. Sr.EF.'nTox, Ang. 20.-The farimeris have commenced to gather th- itb+ey staple, and the darkv is 1 a y. The crop is noit as hrge as wvas exp.ated, hut the farmrers should not grumble as the price is better than it was last y'ear. The cotton seed oil mill has chaned'~ hands. Messrs. [Uroek & Rutledge have boght ont the business anl wvill have the ginning dlepartment realy for work by thme first of September. With three 50-saw Pratt gins and the motive power they will have it will be one of the finest ginneries in the country. The oil plant will be put in later. The ladies of the Presbyterian chureh will have an ice cream festival at Major lriggs's on next Friday night to raise mon ey to pay for their new organ. The highways, throughways, and byways are being lput in good traveling order in and around the village by Commissioner T. Adams Way. The political pot has cooled off somewhbat, but is still hot enough to nmake the hair slip, and if Friday's convention don't take off some of the hide I shall be surprised. Mayor R. 0. Purdy, of Sumter, was in town yesterday. Miss Caro Belser has gone to the moun tains on a pleasure trip. Miss Bulow will leave this miorning for Sumter. Mrs. B. F. Whilden, of Charle-ston, is or a visit to her daughter, Mrs. Dr. Briggs. Mrs. Allen and dlaughter, of Florence, tire on ai visit to the Rev. H. M. Mood's faumily-. c Victory is Certain. Einon MANsING Tnirs:-The great polit ical war in South Carolina is nearing its close- a war on the one part headed and led by B. Rt. Tilliman, of Edgetiel, nominated by the farmers of South Carolina in conven tion assembled March 27th, and placed on a platform pledged to retrenchment and re form in the admuinistration of the govern ment of South Carolina, thereby 'easing the burden of taxation on the shoulders of' a now over and wrongfully taxed people. On the other part headed and led by Earle and Bratton, both nominated by thmat magic word, duty, and in bitter opposition to this movement. The Tillman, or Farmers' Movement, as it has been generally known, declares for a overnment for equal rights to all an~d spec ial privileges to none, the abolition of' use less ofilees, a reduction of taxes generally, rind a chance in life for all laborers re-gard - less of ~vocation. T ihe opposition knowvn as Antis harve waged the war on their pait with a bitterness unequnaled in the political his tory of this State. Thiey have demanded that thme political condition of the State re main for the future as it has in the past: a overnment of the few at the expense of the many; a government in wvhich a fewv are thought worthy of confidence, and only those possesseid of family names--inaumes that have beenr pro~minenit in conrtrollinag and guiding thme destinies of our' State~ im the' past. This is as I believe their rmotive', though thme pretext as they wvould try to have it appear is to save thme State f'romu tihe control ot' unworthy mna. Unit fromi the appearance of tire political horizon there is to be a change, for the indications point to a complete and sweeping iictory to cr'own tme efforts and the unflinching valor of ai mjority of the farmers assisted by as trae and patriotic men and Dermocr-ats of other vocations of life as the brigh't be-ams of the morning sun ever shone upon. On every breeze that swveeps over our noble old State is wafted the glad tidings of snces~s to the farmers' muoverment. The farnmers'imovemient and its supporters have been assailed in every county in this State, and stubbornly opposed oni every hand, and every trick and scheme brought to bear against it, but to no purpose, for the gigantic billowvs of justice and right have been and are still rolling over opposition and will end in a final culmination at Colurabir on the 10th of Sept. next. Oni that day the last ditch of- opposition wvill be reacehed aind the victorious Decmocrats for reform under 'ilnman will cross that last ditch and glori riously plant their banner of re'fomrm on the last raimpart of opposition.

Combinations may help to fill the pockets of sOMe. aInl llay also assist others to office and to power. If however these combina tion. intend jnstice to all men, and are har m1ioniously Deiocratie and united with the Denincrati party. of our country (not as dictators), they must Inevitally assist in till in' the hearts of the people with patriotic devotion to the "rights of man." I have no respect for Northern combinations if they are not Democratic to the very core. There is no hope for true liberty in this country except in the strong arim of Aierican Deml oeracvy. Shakcspeare tells us: "Oh ! it is excellent to have a giant's strength, but it is tyrannous to use it like a giant." We Ion't expect any Letter treatment at the h:inds of tile radical giant of these United States. But our great Democratic giant, standing as it does upon the pure foundation of patri otisni, while it oppresses none, will be sure to use its giant strength for the peace and happiness of the whole country, and also for the perpetuation of the best and the safest form of government upon the face of this earth. Oh ! it would be so grandly glo rious indeed to see every Diemocratic cubi nation, North and South, marching at the tap of the Deinoeratie drnm1 to the great American temple of liberty erected by the isdom of our ancestors. Men who rule and give political voice to the majority, if guided by patriotism, will never embitter that majority against the minority. And the same may j ust as truthfully be said of those who shalie the political creed of the minor ity. Exasperate the one agaiust the other, anId the result will be political trouble. The majority in a free government always rules by vote. But their united wisdom based upon patriotisim is iiperatively demanded by 'the rule of ri.t" in order that the vote t:f the imiajority may not trespass upon the rights or the minority. When neither wili' obey the wisdom of both then a very weak miniorit' nust either compromise with or submit tothe majority. But the minority alike an infant natioa is more apt (especially when all involved live in a Republic) to be justly disposed towards their fellow-ien than the majority, not be cause the minority is any better by nature than the majority, but simply because their very weakness lakes hold of their better feeings from downright necessity. This conflict between the majority and the inor i tv way -o on fur years, with the oppressors rd applied to the' inioiarity, util it becoIe~s trolg enoug'h to contend for its own rights. Then tho re.silt will be revolition. Consult the history of the past anl y*.II will find ev ery word 1 have said to be strictly true.
