The cotton crop in the Santee section of this county has been badly damaged and in some places it is estimated that not over one-third of the crop will be made. We have heard of one man's crop in St. Mark's township that is al most a total loss and another in St. Paul who neither spares time nor monev on his lands, that will not make over a one-third crop. This is not en couraging news for those who depend on the cotton crop. The tobacco crops are in a very fine condition and if the prices are fair our tobacco planters will be in a better condition than those who plant cotton.

As an example of what the devil's workshop can turn out we give our readers a report which reached us last Saturday morning. We presume the starter of the report had been reading Sergeant A. C.

Alderman Sons Co. had quite a large confiagration at their mills at Alcolu last Sunday. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon fire broke out in the boiler shed, caused, it is sup posed, from a spark from one of the smoke stacks, and. although there was a watchman on the premises and a first class arrangement to extinguish fire, the flames were so fierce and rapid that nothing could be done, and about $S, 000 worth of property was destroyed without one cent of insurance. The property destroyed was the boiler shed, machine shops, dust house and a part of t e conveyor. The Alder mans are careful business people and they being without insurance is a sur' prise to those who know their thorongh business methods, but it is explained in this way: The plant has as one of its features a magnificent water works, as good as will be found in some of our small cities, and they keep watchmen on the yards constantly: they also keep steam in the boilers all of the time so that should fire break out they will be repared, but notwithstanding all of these wise precautionary means the property is also kept insured: the prop ertv destroyed, however, happened to be without'insurance because the con cern was about to make some chxanges in the arrangement of the mnachine shops and other buildings.

It is gratifying to note the disposition now being manifested by those of our citizens who have monev. There is a spirit of "pull together- such as has not been here in the past. This is a healthy sign: it shows that our people are convinced that selfishness will not bring about progress and wealth. and that lanning can accomplish what. other towns have accomplished, if all hands put their shoulder's to the wheel and help push. In the starting of new enterprises obstacles can be overcome by putting men to the front in whom the people have confidence: when this is done aid comes almost unsolicited. but where men in whom the people have no confi deuce are put in controlling positions the people are afraid to invest. fearing that after the project has been started, schemes will be inaugurated to force the small investore to discount their stock. It often happens that stock in corporations becomes non-paying through no fault of the management, but to convince people who have lost their money that the management is not to blame. is a task we would not like to undertake. The Bank of Manning has been man aged so that its stock is sought after by investors, and those who are so fortu nate as to hold it will not sell. Why? Because it has and it is still making money. Tobacco warehouse stock was a loss to many of the investors, but there has never been anything started in this town which has been of greater benefit to our merchants. The merchants could have lost every cent of their warehouse stock and then be away ahead of the game. The tobacco warehouses brought trade to this town which would not have come here otherwise, and caused piles of cash money to be spent. Now we have a new enterprise, the ground for which was broken last Mon dav-the oil mill. an institution to be managed by a man who is a natural mechanic and an all-round business man. He will devote his time and en ergy to the work and if an oil mill has money in it he will pump it out for the investors. The fact. that Hon. Joseph F. Rhame has been selected president of the oil mill company inspires confi dence, and with Mr. Frank Ervin as manager the investors feel sure that their interests are in safe hands. The Loan and Exchange Bank. now in course of organization. has nearly one-half of its capital stock subscribed and a good part of the stock is being taken by farmers in various parts of the county. The shares are small, so that a man with small means can take some stock without hampering him and at the same time, should he have need to borrow monev to carry on his business. he can use the bank stock as collateral -the finest kind of security. When bank stock is used as a collateral it has the effect of reducing the cost of money borrowed. for. while the borrower pays interest for that which he has bor rowed. his bank stock is at the same time making money for him. If this bank is organized it will be officered by men who have the esteem and conli dence of the entire community, and its purpose will be to bring more money here and thereby make it easier for our our farmers to buy their supplies and fertilizers for cash. This spirit of "pull together" has put our people to thinking about the building of a cotton factory, and if there is any indication to be had by what people say, and how they act, we believe by the next twelve months Man ning will afford a place of employment for many men. women and children, and a place where our farmers can get a full price for their cotton, at least a half cent more a pound, than if there was no factory here. Besides the cot ton, our farmers will have a place where they can dispose of all kinds of products which are easily raised all through the year and receive the cash therefor. The whole county should in terest themselves in this project, for we believe if Mr. W. Scott Harvin suc ceeds in his undertaking, not only Man ning, but Clarendon. will be wheeled into the progressive line. The industrial spirit is moving our people and if it continues there is a bright future in store for this town. What is now needed is a land improve ment company. an institution which will buy up lands in the outskirts of the town, make streets through them and sell off lots cheap so as to be able to in vite people to move in and build. The way this town is situated, we may as well be surrounded with a Chinese wall with locks on the outer gates. We have no houses to rent and no town lots for sale at a price that a man of small means can buy. This sort of thing pre vents the town from growing up to the necessities brought about by the im provements. Let those who have money get up something to develop and build up the now idle lands in and around Manning. Spain's Greatest Need. Mr. R. P. Olivia of Barcelonia. Spain. spends his winters at Aiken.

An interesting case was heard here before Judge A ldrich today. A mar riage solomnnized between Iiss Fannie V. Littlejohn and the Rev. Stephen A. Nettles of the South Carolina confer ence, on June 25, 1899, was declared to be void and never to have been of binding force. The action was brought by Miss Littlejohn, who alleged that ai the time of such marriage her mind was so much impaired by reason of a serious physical ailment that she was incapable of understanding or of carry ing out the marriage contract. Almost immediately after the mar riage she was placed under the treat I ment of a specialist in surgery and dis eases peculiar to women. and as a re sult of his treatment her mind has been I restored, and she alleges that since re caining possession of her faculties she Koes not wish to ratify or consummate the marriage The testimony was in accordance with the allegations and while 'Miss Little john testified that Mr. Nettles' treat ment was very kind, she stated that she would not assume the duties and relationship of a wife. Under this state of facts, Judge Aldrich held that the alleged contract was in fact no con tract and so adjudged. Messrs. Duncan & Sanders represent ed the plaintiff, and Mr- R. 0. Purdy of Sumter represented the defendant. P. H. F. The above news item from Spartan burg will be received by our readers with sincere sorrow. Rev. S. A. Net tles who is well known and highly re spected by this entire community. will have the sympathy of those who know him, and understand his present troub les. His troubles are of such a nature that delicacy forbids us from saying much about them, but from reliable in formation we have it that 'Mr. Nettles' marriage annullment has the sanc tion of his church. and those who are in a position to understand the delicate nature of the case, and that his char acter as a man and minister remains unsullied. A Night of Terror. --Awful anxiety was felt for the widow of the brave G eneral Burnham of Machias, Me.. when the doctors said she could not live till morning.", writes Mrs. S. H.

After three small doses she slept easily all night. and its further use completely cured her." This marvelous medicine is guar anteed to cure all throat. chest and lung dis cases. Only 50e and Si.

The charity that begins at home is often so discouraged that it never gets any farther. After many intricate experiments. scientists have discovered methods for obtaining all the natural digestants.
