THE MANEING TIMES.
S. A. NETTLES, Editor.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3, 889,
WE FULFIL OUR CONTRA'TS.
The Orangeburg Times and Demo

'favorite with the present editor of the
EIsaxn Tnis, and] the editor of that
paper is a personal friend of ours.

Wt 'County paper-the best, or
among the lest, in the State. We
generally agree with the level-headed
views of its editor, too; but an article
in its last issue is calculated to do
harm, and our brother will we know
-Rarden us for putting in a mild pro
test against its unensiness-like utter

or ought to be, altogether wrong

to is this:

then collecting for three insertions.

charge, but as an excuse says the ed
kor and proprietor seldom has any
thing to do with the "making up" of
his paper, he leaving that to his fore

PINEWOOD KNOTS.
Good Roads and Good Bridges Demanded
-Commissioner Way's Cause Cham
pioned-Interesting Local Notes.
PINEwOOD, March 30.-Mr. Editor:
Your live journal is stirring up things
generally. We say. Hurrah for the
TrnS! Rap the officer that does not
do his duty. Your criticisms seem to
irritate some of these county com
missioners. We say, "Lay on Mc
duff, and let them cry, hold, enough."
Every community has a right to good
roads; the people demand good
bridges. Your article week before
last seemed to have touched Greece.
Commissioner Way seemed to have
knocked the props from under Rome
and the 'whole empire fell. These sev
eral communicatioLs brought forth
heat, vapor, and cau4ic language, em
bellished with a tremendous fire. Ah!
sir, there is life in the old land yet. I
have been watching, anxiously waiting
to see who would use the. pistol. Is
there danger? If you think so, I will
get over the Georgia line. I can see
nothing but honest truth in your ed
itorials; nothing but justice in Com
missioner Way's reply. It is always
the wounded bird that flutters. Why
then accuse him of "blowing his own
born." The horn gave no uncertain
sound. The bird that received the
shot fluttered. We say, let the horn
blow; the people are ready to answer.
Yes, for we feel proud that he and the
Editor has moral courage enough to
stand up for the right. Every public
officer should be made to feel he is
simply a public servant to do the
people's will. No officer should be
above criticism. Commissioner Hor
ton makes an elaborate, spunky reply,
but he showed a bad spirit. His la
bored argument falls to the ground,
because caustic language never won an
argument. It always shows weakness
on one side tQ use temper. Independ
ent thought is a grand and noble vir
tue, but is not that virtue lost in any
man so soon as he loses his temper?
You had a perfect right as a
public journalist to arraign and criti
cise these county commissioners. One
horse had been severely crippled, then
a mule killed. They were getting too
much tail to their kite. It was time
for somebody to take hold of it. Must
there be no safety to life or property?
Hear what they say! They cry "too
much water!" Water is the excuse. I
have yet to find a single bad bridge
but what can be nicely and safely
fixed for the public to travel.
Have not the people a right to
complain? Yes, but not against Mr.
A.; that won't do. Against Mr. C.?
No, that won't do, either. Against
H.? Never. If this be the case then
pray tell me how these crippled
horses and killed mules are to be paid
for? Let the people be taxed, of
course. This is justice - with a yen
geance.. Suppose you get your neck
broke. Just let the insurance company
pav:for that, and "allis well that ends
malt.
It is a settled conviction of all good
eitizens that Commissioner Way
touched the right chord. It was a du
ty he owed to the people of Claren
den county and to himself to catch
the "echo"'like a zman, and let the
responsibih'ty rest where it belonged.
This was independent thinking.. It
shows conclusively he was not afraid
to give account whenever the people
demanded it; moreover was ready to
be weighed in the scale of even jus
tice, for by the people he was to be
judged..
My opinion is an officer is the peo
ple's servant. It is his will to do
their will. He is a poor officer be
cause he is in office to lord it over the
oitiseus' heritage.
Our little town, Pinewood, is grow
ing. We have a neat depot, two
steam mils one store, and a hand
some Methodist church, There is an
opening for more business men,. men
of capital.
I learn Dr. Salley will locate here,.
build a store, and keep drugs in addi
tion to the 'ce of medicine. It
is also said r. Reynolds contemplates
the erection of a drug store here.
This by nomeans tells badly for this
Pinewood region, as it is located at
the foot of the sand hills some good
people will live forever. Mr. Charles
Griffin is Pinewood's prince of mer
chants. There being only his store
he has trade his own way. Mr. Editor,
I'll promise you more anon if not
blown to pieces by your county com
missioners. JAm.
Mr. Cole Replies to Mr.. Hortaa.
Ms.. Emrron:-I see from your last
week's issue that Mr. E. 0. Horton
kicks when he is criticised for non
performance of duty. I am an inter
ested- witness, -want the causew~ay
kept in good repair, and shall claim.
te right at all times to look after the
conduct of our "officials." The shad
ows of "departed glory" has not ob
structed my vision so as to render it
impossible for me to see the bad
causeway. If Mr. Horton will stop
and think for one moment he will
know that the people will not give
him credit for writing the article in
question, and had to pick up a
"cracker" to do the work for him.
The people have- comm~itted their
work into his hands, and he must
stand or fall by his faithful or uifaith
ful conduct of the same. When I
was on the board these bridges were
kept in. good repair. It may have
beeig "I" then,,.but it is. "we" now en
gaged in this work. Mr, Horton
cannot shirk the responsibility placed
upon his shoulders~exen if he has to
call in help that he may be able to
carry the Load.. Mr. Horton may not
regard what the people have to say
about this matter,' but his "departed
glory" two years hence will obstruct
his vision so that he will have another
name for these things. Public office
is a public trust, and must be admnin
istered in the interest of the many.
Very truly, T. J. CoLE.

MORE TERRIBLE THAN WAR.
A Hurricane Wrecks Two American and
Two German War Ships, off the Coast
of Samoa-One Hundred and 'orLy
Lives Lost.
Losnos, March 31.-Additional par
ticulars of the disastrous storm at
Apia have just been received. A hur
ricane burst upon the harbor sudden
ly. The German man-of war Eber
was the first vessel to drag her am
chor. She became unmanageable
and was driven helplessly on the reef
which runs around the harbor. She
struck broadside at 6 o'clock in the
morning. The shock caused her to
lurch and stagger back and she sank
in a moment in deep water. Most of
her men were under batches and
scarcely a soul of them escaped.
The German war ship Adler was
the next to succumb. She was lifted
bodily by a gigantic wave and cast
on her beam ends on the reef. A ter
rible struggle for life ensued among
the officers and sailors. Many plunged
into the raging surf and struck out,
some reaching the shore in safety.
Others clung to the rigging until the
masts fell. Of those in the rigging
only two gained shore. The captain
of the Adlerand several other officers
were saved.
Meantime the United States steam
er Nipsic had been dragging her an
hors and drifting toward shore. The
captain, however, managed to keep
control and ran her on a sand bank.
The boats were immediately lowered,
and the whole company were saved
with the exception of six men. These
were drowned by the capsizing of a
boat.
The United States steamer Vanda
la was carried before the gale right
upon the reef. She struck with a ter
rible shock, hurling Capt. Schoon
maker against a Gatlin gun, and he
fell stunned. Before he could recover
a great wave swept the deck and he
was washed away with others into the
sea. The vessel sank fifty yards from
the Nipsic. Several of the officersand
men were washed overboard and
drowned. Others perished while mak
ing desperate efforts to swim to shore.
Some remained for hours in the rig
ging, but the heavy and swift suc
ceeding waves dashing over them,
carried them off one by one.
By this time night had set in.
Many natives and Europeans had
gathered on shore, all anxious to ren
der assistance to the unfortunate
crews, but owing to the darkness they
were wholly unable to be of service.
Soon after the Vandalia had sunk
te American war ship Trenton broke
from her anchorage and was driven
upon the wreck of the Vandalia,
whence she drifted to shore. The
bottom of the Trenton was complete
ly stove in, and her hold was half full
f water.,
-As morning broke the German man
Af-war Olga, which had hitherto with
stood the gale, although much batter
Ad by the heavy seas that constantly
broke upon her, became unmanage
sble, and she was driven upon the
beach where she lay in a tolerably
air position.
The following is the record of the
flieers and men lost:
Eber,, captain and all other officers
exept one,.and seventy-four men.
Vandalia, captain, four officers, and
orty men.
Nipsic, seven men.
Adler, altogether figteen persons,.

DEAFNESS CAN'T BE CURED
by local application. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure- deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucus lining of the eustachian tube. When
this tub3 gets inflmed you have a sumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and -when it is
entirely closed cdeafness is the result, and
unless the inflummation can be taken. out
and this tube restored to its normahcondi
ion, hearing will be destroyed forever;pnine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrha,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucus surfaces.
We will give one hundred& dollars forany
case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that we
cannot cure by taking Hall's catarrh cnre.

BIG TEXAS STORIES.
The Way Such Big Stories Originate
Clarendon County the Scene o a Ter.
rific Hand-to-JHand Duel.
S$ome people are giftcd with a wonderful
amount of exageration, otherwise lying.
The following article appeared in the New
York S&m, March 16th, as a special telegram
from Columbia. It had the headllines, "Duel
with knife and razor. A farnar's desperate
struggle with a negro highwayman." We
sppose the correspondent got the skeleton
of his stozy from the Trnrz whieb wanpub
lished that week, and then embellished it
a la blood and thunder to suit his taste. And
so with many of the blood-curdling stories
from the South and West. They contain on
ly enough truth to give it a coloring, and
the rest is imagination. It will be remem
bered that an unknown negro did attack
young Jenkinson, and that the negro was
cut in the shoulder, but Jenkinson was not
hurt at all. The negro was not killed, nor
has be since been heard of. The-following
is the way it appeared in the N. Y. &m:.
CoxUMDnn, March 15.-A terrible hand-to
hand fight took place yesterday evening in
Clarendon county between A. Furman Jen
kinson, a farmer, and a negro highwayman.
The farmnerwas returning home at dusk,
when he was accosted in the road by apow
erful negro, who asked to be directed to cer
tain places. While.Jenkinson was taiinn
and suspecting nothing, the negro knoed
him down and then held him on the ground..
He then demanded the money and watchbof
Jenkinson, threatening to kill him if they
were not delivered, at the same time draw
ing a razor with his left hand. -Jenkinson
took the opportunity when the negro was
opening his razor to make an effort to ris,.
and succeeded in doing so. He had a large
knife in his pocket, and before the negro
culd rhhim he drew andopened it. A
desperate duel was fought and both men
were gashed. Finally the negro made a
lunge at the farmer and made a terrible
gash in his right breast. Jenkinson then
rushed in on the negro, caught him by the
top of the head with his left head and the
next moment had cut his throat from ear to
ear. The negro was dead in a few minutes.
He has not been identified.
