THE MANNIG TIES. Maimising, M. C. S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20, 1889. CAPT. F. W. DAWSON. Hero worship in all ages has been common, and when a man by force of character, or by any extraordinary achievements, is raised to some high eminence, all applaud. Such aman was Capt. F. W. Dawson, late editor of the hecs and Courier. His name was fa miliar to every intelligent household in the State, and throughout the Union his views and opinions were held in high esteem. No other man in this State had as great influence or as mnch power, and, taking all things into consideration, he had not a peer in the State. All men, even his most bitter enemies, admired him, and col umns could be filled, sounding his many achievements. But he is gone, stricken down in the very prime of manhood, and by a' craven, cowardly libertine and defiler of woman's pu rity; stricken down even while en deavoring to shield the weak, to pro tect a woman from what damns her in earth and heaven. An account of the murder will be found on our first and fourth pages. All-is still wrapped in mystery. It is said that Miss Smith, a woman stay ing at the home of McDow, has made a written statement to the effect that after the pistol shot, she ran to the door, and that Capt. Dawson was sit ting up in a chair, gasping for breath, and begged her for God's sake to give him a drink of water. She ran off to get it, but when she got back, Mc Dow had locked the office door, and would not let her in. The coroner's jury rendered a verdict of death by a pistol in the hands of Dr. McDow. His coachman was arrested and is held as an accessory after the fact. It is thought an attempt was made to bury Dawson, and then try to con ceal the matter. Capt. Dawson's hat was found in a sink in the water closet, some distance to the rear of McDow'e house. The case will prob ably be tried nest June. The city of Charleston and the State of South Carolina has lost one of its best, noblest, and most power Jul friends. A BANK FOR BANNING. Manning needs and is now in a fair -way of having a bank. Capt. Levi a few days ago took a subscription pa per around with him, and in a very short time he had nearly $25,000 sub scribed. Twice that sum will be cap ital enough to begin on. The bank is an assmed fact, and will be in opera tion in time for the cotton trade next fall. The following from the Charles ton World of yesterday will be of in - -terest in this matter: Captain A. Levi. a prominent- ayer of Manning, was registered at .be Charleston Hotel last night. Capt.u-n Levi is in the city partly on prate business, and partly for the ppseof looking after the interests eofaie ban heds seeking to establish at He was seen last night by a World report ~er, to whom be spoke quite freely about the 3roqeets of the proposed new bank, and sof the prospects of the growing county-seat 'of Clarendon generally. "We are pushing right ahead tc organize 1the bank," said the Captain inretponse to a reuery, "and-our prospects are just as fine .swe could wish. Although we have been 'working itu& for but a short time, nearly ese-hl ofe stock has already been sub scribed by the citizens of Manning, and we are working foi other and larger subscrip -l ions from the monied men of the country at targe. We have not tried to dispose of any ot the stock in Charleston yet, although I have no doubt there are a large number of capitalists here who would take big blocks of the stock without hesitation, and be glad to etit. Manning is a live, growing town, and needs a bank now more than anything else, and it would be an institution that would pay handsomely. We are anxious, however, to keep the controlling interest at home, and consequenltly are trying to get considerably more than half of the stock taken at Mannmng and in Clarendon county before seeking subscribers abroad. "'At present," he continued, "the mer ebants of Manning and the farmers of the whole eountyv are compelled to shp all their eetton to Charleston, which is the only mar ket they have, as they have only one rail smad, that one leading to this city. But if we had abank atthe counltyseat, it would at tract cetton buyers, who could afford to set ie in the town, bringing with them a reviv - siof trade, and helping us yery much in a number of other ways. At present Charles ton and Sumter get very nearly all the trade of the county, either directly or indirectly, but with a bank we could centralize it at the court house, and the result would be that Manning would take a start in growth that she has not known for years." BAD ROADS AND BRLIDGES. * In another column wil be found a communication from Mr. T. Adams .Way, disclaiming any responsibility for the condition of any bridges or roads, other than those in certain townships he names. Mr. B. Conyers Horton has charge of the causeway across Pocotaligo. We have interviewed him on the sub jeet, and invited him to give the pub lic his reasons for the roads being in no better condition. We understood him to a'ay he would do so, but not having received any communication from him we conclude he does not care to go before the public on the - matter. We have not seen, nor do we know of the condition of the cause way, but every day complaints are made at this office about it. Mr. T. J. Cole and Mr. D. M. Brad bami especially are loud in their com plaints, considering the causeway in a very dangernus condition. They say there are three whashouts across the 'causeway, each about ten or twelve feet wide, and from one to three feet deep;that they are almost impassa ble, crossing being done at great rnsk to life and property. Mr. Bradham says they would be put in tolerably good repair, by put ting down some stringers, and putting boards across them. It would cost something, but the needs and conve inii o the iai. should be con-. sidered. We hear that other parties in town, who came near sustaining serious losses, are very much dis turbed about the -condition of this causeway. Another gentleman of this place, who has occasion to cross right often, says he does not think the causeway can be repaired till the water falls. Mr. Horton says nothing can be done till the water falls, and that then he will do what is necessary. Good roads are a necessity. The unexpected will come, but every effort possible should be done to keep the roads passable. The long continued rains have been very trying on all the roads, and is some excuse for their bad condition, but we want, need, and must have good roads. We are informed that some work men were at the causeway yesterday attempting to do what they could to repair the causeway. Let us hope they will succeed. The twelfth annual convention of the Young Men's Christian Associa tions of South Carolina will be held at Greenville, S. C., April 11-14. Boodle gave Wannamaker his place in the Harrison Cabinet. It is said that he contributed $40,000 to the corruption fund, and of course was entitled to something. Walker Blaine, a young lawyer, and son of Secretary of State J. G. Blaine, has been nominated by Harrison to be assistant attorney general for the secretary of State. He succeeds one of the best lawyers in the United States, while it is said young Blaine is a weak lawyer. The nomination is considered very poor, and possibly done for the purpose, that the elder Blaine may easily "cast an anchor to windward." Joe James, a white demon incar nate, of Darlington county, was con victed last week of hiring some ne groes to murder his father, and has been sentenced to be hanged. The murder occurred last year. It seems almost impossible to believe that a man could sink so low as to hire a negro. to kill his old father, that he might come in possession of a few hundred dollars worth of property. Rutherford B. Haves recently in formed a reporter of a Cincinnati paper that he received fifty letters a day from applicants for office under the new administration. The fact that Mr. Hayes called on the Presi dent on the day after his inauguration must account for this flood of impor tunity. The average office-seeker makes it a rule to get the help of ev erybody in sight-even of a harmless man like Ex-President Hayes. The cigarette nuisance and evils re sulting from this habit are rapidly growing into fearful proportions. New York physicians say that it promotes nervous affections, interferes with the digestion, induces insomnia, leads to muscular debility, causes diseases of thc-nouth and eyes, and blunts the mental powers. It befouls the air, leaves a taint upon the garments, and creates a thirst for liquor. It is in every way an injury, and in no way a benefit, says the Atlanta Constitution. It is said that the Edgefield jury that recently made a mistrial in the case of Jones, the murderer, were en gaged the night before the trial in a game of cards with the murderer. What justice can be done when it is to be meted out by jurors who the night before the trial engage in drinking and gambling with the pris oners? It is said that the Edgefield jailor furnishes cheap board, and that the jurymen generally stop with him Jones had the run of the jail. Con sequently prisoner and jury were thrown together in one happy family. Such is justice! Good Lord, deliver us! ALDERMAN'S MILL. A Large Establishment-Thie Maicinniery --Monthly Pay Roil-Raises HIs own Corn. Clarendon county contains proba bly more lumber mills than any other county in the State, and no mills in the State are better equipped with first-class machinery. One of the largest is that of D. W. Alderman & Co., situsted about four miles north of Manning, on the Central railroad. Alcolu is a new post office, and con tains history in its name. The three syllables, Al. Co-Lu, are respectively the first syllables in Alderman, Col well and Lula. Messrs. Alderman and Colwell are the proprietors of the mill, and the christian name of the wife of each is Lula. Alcolu is a mail and telegraph office. The express of fice for that mill is Manning. Four engines are employed at the mill to run the machinery. Two saw mills and a planing machine are kept busy all the time. Mr. Alderman claims that his planing machine is the best in the State. A flooring-board machine, specially adapted for mak ing flooring, ceiling, wainscoting, and weather-boarding, is kept busy all the time to fill orders from the North. Mr. Alderman is the pioneer in dryv kilns, and has three at his milL These kilns thoroughly dry and season the lumber, by means of a continual blast of hot air. His own mill does not furnish enough lumber for his dry kilns and platning machines, so that he gets a large quantity of lumberI from neighboring mills to keep these machines going. An iron railroad ten miles long, on which run two locomotives, is used! for hauling the timber to the mill. Thirty-seven mules are kept in the woods, hauling the timber to the rail road. About one hundred persons are employed around and about the will. The monthly expenses are about $2500 to $3000. Mr. Alderman runs a commissary in connection with the mill, but, in addition to what he takes in, at least $1000 cash is paid the hands at the end of every month which finds it way to Maining and The product of the mill is about three or four cars a day, most of which is shipped North. A considerable business is also done in cross ties, which are hewed out in the woods. Yellow pine is the only kind of tim ber used. Mr. Alderman does a com paratively .small local trade, but lie is ready at any time to fill local orders, and an advertisement of his else where solicits such orders. In addition to the mill at Alcolu, Mr. Alderman has another mi:Int Trio, on th, G. & W. R. R , where two sta tionary engines, a locomotive and four miles of railroad, and fifteen mules are employed in the business. Mr. Alderman is a mill man, but he can make some of our corn buying farmers blush. He raises on his own farm about half the corn necessary to feed his mules, and for other purposes. It pays him to do it. Why not our farmers also raise their own corn? We cannot answer the question. Mr. Alderman is a native of Duplin county, N. C. Before he come to Clarendon, he was engaged four years in Marion county in the lum ber business. He has been in this county about four years, and is one of the most substantial business men in the county. BAD BRIDGES AND ROADS. County Commissioner Way not to Blame for the Condition of Pocotaligo Bridges. P..OLA, S. C., March 16, 1889. Mn. EniTn:-I have carefully read your article headed "Only a Mule." The article is timely and suggestive. It points directly to the county com missioners. I admire your frank, bold criticisms. It ought to do good. I regret the damage to Mr. Huggins, deplore the loss to Mr. Sprott. But who is to blame? You say the "coun tv commissioners." But are all of them to be censured? It is the duty of the people to hold strictly to ao count their public officers. It is furthermore the duty of the press to call attention to evil, and warn the people of any approaching danger. ?" this is right and proper in its plece, but is there not more or less danger of producing prejudice in the minds of iudividu.Js, even when an officer does all he can, as he may think best for the public good. In speaking of the recent damage done to Mr. Sprott you state your proposition very forcibly: "The county commissioners possibly can answer why poor horses must endure such cruelty, and the people's prop erty be put in such jeopardy." I only propose to answer for myself indi vidually. At an early meeting of the board the county was divided into three sections, each commissioner having so many townships. The townships that fell to my care and supervision are as follows: Concord, St. Pauls, Friendship, Calvary, Fulton, and Sunmy Swamp north and West of running stream. This embraces my work with road and bridge duty. I have nothing to do with roads and bridges beyond this line of duty. While I regret auy ac cidents which may cause the damage of horse or mule on the public high ways, and the necessary loss in money to the county accruing from neglect, at the same time I do not think it just and right to give such publicity as would include the whole board. The first thing on assuming the du ties of the office elected to by such a complimentary vote of the people of Clarendon, was to see that thme bridges embraced in iny townships were safe and secure. I took an expeienced contractor and examined them care fully. YE here I found work needed, contracts were given out, and repairs made promptly. You can travel here day or night, with perfect security to property, and without the danger of loss of Ife. Even with all the dili gence and care, trouble sometimes come, and I do not think the county commissioners should be blamed for everything, things impossible for them to foresee. Criminal neglect is inex cnsable. Was this damage and loss of mule of such a nature? If so I have no more to say. But let the responsibility rest where it belongs. As to the public roads there is much unnecessary clamor. The condition of the roads are bad, 1 will admit. They are in bad condition through out my townships, the worst I ever saw. But who can suggest a remedy? It rains incessantly. No work can be done, for the water covers the whole face of the earth. We hope for bet ter things,-to give the people good roads. T. A. WAY.

Some of the Central Lynchers Convicted and Sentenced. GENVILLS, S. C., March 8.--The end of the famous Central Lynching case was reached at Pickens Wednes day night, resulting in the acquittal of the three men charged with the lynching of the white man, Manse Waldrop, and the conviction of three others. The case is familiar, having been published far and wide at the time of its occurrence as furnishing the first known instance of the lynching of a white man by negroes for a crime which the same punishment had come to be meted out as by an unwritten law in cases where the criminal was a negro and the victim white. Manse Waldrop, a half-witted white man, was charged with felonious assault on the thirteen-year-old daughter of Cato Sherman, a negro man living near Cen tral. He was given a preliminary hearing before a trial justice at Cen tral and committed for trial. Late in the evening of December 30, 1887, Waldrop was started to Pickens to be placed in jail in charge of two consta bles, one of whom was R. Gaylord Eat on. Within a mile of Central, the of ficers were halted by a party of ne groes and their prisoner taken away and hanged to a tree by the roadside until he was dead. The lynching created great excite ment in the neighborhood and throughout the county. Very soon after the inquest over the body of the victim, Waldrop, a number of ar rests of negroes were made and one white man, Gaylord Eaton, was taken into custody. The case was called at the spring term of court following the lynching at Pickens, but was con tinued. Negroes throughout the State had held meetings and collect ed funds to help defend the case, and when it came up John M. Freeman, a colored lawyer from Charleston, was at Pickens in the interest of the colored lynchers. The lynchers were fially brought to trial at the summer term of court last year, and the hearing resulted in a mistrial. The case then came up for a second trial last Tuesday afternoon, the six defendants being then ar raigned as follows: Gaylord Eaton, wite; William Williams, Cato Sher man (father of the girl in the case), Jno. Reese, Harrison Hevward, and Henry Bolton. The five negroes had been in jail since their arrest, fourteen months, but Eaton had been out on bond during that time. The trial was ended Wednesday afternoon, after five hours of speeches. The jury, after being charged by Judge Norton, went out with the case about six o'cl->ek. For more than four hours they were closeted and fears began to arise of another mis trial But about 11 o'clock P. M!. they returned with their verdict. They found Gaylord Eaton, white, and Coto Sherman and John Reese, colored, "not guilty," and they found William Williams, Harrison Heyward and Henry Bolton, all colored, "guilty'' of the criine of murder and recommend ed them to the mercy of the court. It is said tha~t the verdict was a compromise, some of the jury favor ing the conviction of all the defen dants and others advocating the ac quittal of all. The trial was watched with the intensest interest by a large crowd. William Williams and Har rison Heyward were sentenced to be hanged on the 5th day cf April, and Henry Bolton was granted a new trial. Atlanta Constitution, Feb. 10, 1889. THE ORPHAN'S HOME. Rev. L. B. Payne, Agent an~d Trustee of the Orphan's Home at Macon, Ga., Writes a Letter Dated February 5th, 1889. "I have been using Swift's Specific with the children of the orphan's home under my charge with the best results. I began its use between nine and ten years ago, and have seen many remarkable results. Quite a number of the children had constitutional blood diseases re sulting from the sins of their parents and every one of these children were cured of the horrible taint by the use of S. S. S. There have also been scores of chil dren in the institution whose systems (they have been mostly without the benefits of parental care) were ener vated by dirt eating and other foul practices. Every one of these chil dren have taken S. S. S. and all have been signally benefitted by it. All have been cured who have taken enough of it. We have also two in mates of the home, subject to painful recurring attacks of erysipelas. Neither one improved under the treatment usual for the disease. When all other medicines were dis earded and they took S. S. S. the cuie in each case was quick and perma nent, for they have been well for five vears and there has been no return of the disease. I could tell much more of the remarkable cures of blood disease by S. S. S., for I have seen it used and know its value. L B. PAYE. Fingers Camne Off'.
