THE MANING TES.I - Man=~ig 0- CL S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, April 23,1890. The State Democratic Executive Committee will meet in Columbia May 8th. The Pavilion hotel in Charleston was closed up by the sheriff last week. Mr. Gaillard, the proprietor, at once obtained another house, and has open ed the "New Pavilion." The Anti-Tillman farmers meet in Columbia to-day. Maj. C. S. Land represents Clarendon; Col. J. J. Dar gi, Sumter; and J. A. Peterkin, Or angeburg. They meet to devise plans for securing speakers to oppose Till man in his canvass for governor. A Wisconsin cort has been trying a case in which a clergyman is charged with getting $225 for an unsound horse worth not $100. Doubtless this clergyman is a good and worthy man in all other respects, but in swapping horses it is mighty hard work not to retain some traces of the old Adam. The political mills of persecution J- have already begun to grind in this State. In Richland and Beaufort counties, the Democratic supervisors of registration have been arrested on a cbarge of failing to have the regis tration books open on the 1st Monday of April, to allow voters to register. :The caes will Ihe heard in the U. S. cours Dana, editor of the New York Sun, has been making numerous uncalled for attacks on Grover Cleveland's ap estance and his private character, inshigated, it is said, because when Gsvaland was president he declined to appoint Dana to a coveted foreign misson. Cleveland has at last become so outraged by these attacks that he bas characterized Dana as a senile old iar and thief A Georgia Alliance has expelled a menber for refusing to pay a security debt. Thus the alliance is doing a good'work, as was calculated from the beginning. It not only looks to the- protection and advancement of the farmers but to the interest of all The action of the alliance as above alluded to, is a commendable proedin and will tend to strength -en the organiztion. The Texington people have held Auother indignation meeting about 'the Governor's respiting the negro under sentence of death for an out - rageous crime upon a young Lexing ton woman, and have denounced Gov ernor Richardson and Judge Wallace Sas aiding and abetting lynch law. ~These people are too hasty in this Sthing. The Governor claims he has good reasons for his course of action, nad willlat the proper time lay it all - 'peto the Lexington people. Possi mayh~ nbe iight in their indigna ~- ~n.~9in,7nt+ I~ars to us as hey are wholly wrong. [York Ehteprise.3 The Alliance and Politics. ~.About two years ago the Alliance > rat made its appearance in York 5 onnty, and like almost every other niton its aims and objects were ghyand exhaustively scruti nized by our people-endoised by. s ome., criticised by others. It rapidly gained friends until now 7the order has extended, and its influ ence felt, in every nook and corner of t he county. Those who criticised and called it a political organization, in augurated for the purpose of creating ---politica revolution, have been most sadly disappointed. Strietly adhering to its purpose as set forth in its constitution, and steer ing clear of the breakers upon which other organizations have been wreck ad, it has been a power for good to ,oar people. It has not only enabled our farmers to purchase their goods andasupplies Sata lower rate than heretofore, but h- as created asystem of economy which baa challenged the admiration of all caun This is not all; it waged in itsacomparative infancy a gallant war against a powerful corporation backed b)y millions of capital, and taught the jute trust that money could avail nothing against the united efforts and -actions of a sturdy citizenship. It has made our people more inde pedent and taught them lessons of frugality and industry which will not soon be forgotten. Counting in its ~ranks an intelligent membership, its naefniness has just now begun, and Sgreater things will in the future bej accomplished. It is just such an organization asj wohild likely excite the criticism of the trained and professional politician,f ~nd has hence received its share in every section. We confess we have no apprehen sions. The men who constitute the membership are men of the right *stamp and character, and are num bered with the true and faithful who snatched our government from the hands of political adventurers and thieves in 1876, and who, since that me, have contributed to the prosper ~ity and welfare of the State. They have not lost their place in society and their right to be heard in the councils of State. They now have the same rights which they previously held as individuals, and are inspired with the same devotion to our county, State, and nation. Membership in the Alliance cannot and should not deprive one from expressing an opin ion on any and every subject, and no one should hold up such an opinion -as being the opinion of the order. They should be free from the fling, "the Alliance is drifting into politics," which is heard so often in different -sections of the State. They, as individuals, have the same) rightto express a political opinion that the merchant, lawyer, or any one else has, and are not the subjects of criti cism for expressing the same. The poitical campaign of the pres ent year promises to be one of unus ual interest and every individual has a duty to perform in contributing his share to place the government in safe and proper hands. We feel sure that we can also say of our people whoj ar io members, what we have no hesitation in saying of the Alliance, that when duty calls the farmers ol York will be found in the front ranli supporting men who are pledged t( faithfully serve the people as publi servants, whether they be members o: the order or not. [ 7ie 7ype-Founder.] The Editorial Exchequer. An editor's lot is a hard one. Day afte: day he grinds away at the intellectual an< mechanical mills, and between the grind he has to grind away at delinquent subscrib ers in order to keep the mills running. A a class he has a wonderful versatility i accomplishing this last grind. Here he en treats, there tareatens, elsewhere resorts t the weapon of sarcasm. Following are givei a few examples of this, to the financiall; uninterested, delightful humor, clippe< from country newspapers hardly a mont) old: A number of our subscribers can pay u in produce if they so desire. Anything w can use will be taken and we will be glad t get it-we can't use promises. Also, w would remind those parties who have prom ised us coal that their promises will no keep the stove warm. It's coal we need Don't be bashful or timid. If you canno sell your produce to any one else, we wil try to use it. We will buy of the produce just as well as of the merchant, when he i patronizing us. Come in and see us. The shop wants a few hundred pounds o potatoes. A delinquent aubscriber or tw4 can easily square up by bringing us in somi of the aforesaid fruit. Our books must b closed by January 1st, and it must be cas] or its equivalent. Do not forget that vege tables are legal tender, as well as cord wood of which this paper sees but little, excep when it borrows a few dollars and buys i load; but don't forget the potatoes. We wish to inform the readers of th< Outlook and all persons who read our pa per, that we are not engaged in the news paper business in this town away off fron the railroad, in the midst of the wilds o the cour.try, merely for our health. Thos who owe as on account must come to the scratch, or we will resort to severe measure! to bring them there. The man who reads the paper, And sponges as he goes, Will never reach that happy land Where milk and honey flows. A man mightas well attempt to quench th4 phosphorescent emanations from the ta: end of a lightning bug with a squirt gun as to try to run a newspaper without money. All delinquent subscribers are herebj warned not to let their daughters wear this paper for a bustle, as there is considerable due on it and they might take cold. Logwood or cordwood is as good as cast at the Gazette office. Yet in less than r month we wiil have laid in our winter's supply. Cash payments will then be in or der. When a man is so stingy as to borrow s newspaper when he is able to buy, he wil: talk through his nose to save his teeth. It is easier to pay your subscription onE year at a time than to settle after it has so cumulated. Bring us in some wood on subscription. A Lady's Reason for no. Dancing. 1. Dancing would lead me into crowdec rooms and late hours, which are injuriou to health and happiness. 2. Dancing will lead me into very closE contact with pernicious caspany; and evi communications corrupt good munners. 3. Dancing would require me to use anc permit freedom with the other sex, of whici I should be ashamed, and which I believt to be wrong. 4. My parents and friends would bi anxious about me if I were out late, keep ing company with they know not whom. 5. Ministers and good people generalli disapprove of dancing, and I think it no safe to set myself up against them. If thing be even doubtful I wish to be on thE safe side. 6. Dancing has a bad name, and I mear to study things that ore pure and lovell and of good report. 7. Danceng is generally accompanici with drinking, and I see drinking produc es most of the evils of theartsent time. 8. Iaz tolesrnking isa 'very grea o dsnare to young men, and : do not wish to have anything to do witl leading them astray. 9. Dancing unfits the mind for serious re lection and prayer, and I mean to do noth, ing to estrange me from my God a'id m3 Savior. Iodine for Rattlesnake Bite. A physician writing to a medical journa says: "In a late issue of the Adt'ocate I no ticed an article on 'Remedies for Snake Bite, settng forth olive oil and ammonia as good and safe remedies. As to the virtues of olivi oil I know nothing as touching snake bites Ammonia is good when you can get nothint better, but I write this to say that tincture of iodine is a specific in this trouble. I: you can get it in time, apply in full strengtl to the wound, and give the patient one t< five drops In water every ten minutes, for say an hour, or until improvement sets in then lengthen out until an hour. Some fif teen years ago I was called to treat a danger os case of snake bite, where the whiskl remedy had been faithfully tried and had failed, and my patient was fearfully swoller and appeared near dying. "I gave the iodine in one drop doses every five minutes, and was astonished to see the prompt and rapid recovery. In twelve hours the lady was able to resume her household labors, and suffered no further inconveni ence from the snake bite. I have treated perhaps one dozen cases with this remedy, using no other, and each case with the mosi gratying success. "Nine years ago this past summer a white lad, whilst plowing for me, was bitten on his ankle by a ground rattler. I was fromt home, and did not see him for three or four hours after the occurence. When I did see him the limb was badly swollen up to the knee, and he was in great suffering. To<: late to make an outward application, I pui ten drops of iodine in as many teaspoont of water, and gave him a teaspoonfull oi this mixture every five minutes for a fe's times, then lengthened out to thirty minutes, I gave him about twenty drops in all, and the next morning he resumed his plowins without any inconvenience. "Some years ago I happened at a friend's house a few minutes after his dog had beer bitten by a monstrous Florida rattlesnake, and gave the dog iodine in five or six drol deses when he was thought to be dying In six hoirs he was able to go out with his master cow hunting. "In every case Ihave tried it, it has provec so satisfactory that I consider it a perfec antidote to the bite of the rattlesnake, o: moccasin, or tarantula, and recommendi with confidence as such."

Editor Manning Time:-We have been reading the News and Cuarier for a good many years, and while we never did admire its politics very much, yei we are more disgusted now than ever. It really seems that it, as well as some lesser and insignificant sheets, would like to rule the whole State. We think these little editors had better stop and consider who and what they are trying to write about, for we as farmers do not any longer intend to sit down and be run over. We have risen and propose to stand up for our rights. In our last con vention we made the suggestions of Mr. B. R. Tillman and Col. Coit for governor and lieutenant governor, and we propose to see that these sugges tions are endorsed by the regular nominating convention in August; for we are going there to do that very thing. We do not propose to submit to the railing accusations made against us. 1 The News and Courier has as good as accused the delegates to that Farm ers' Convention of being no Demio crats at all, and when it says that after an eight bours' session the convention nominated B. R. Tillman and J. C. Coit for governor and lieutenant gov ernor, and that the Denocrats could fill out the rest of the ticket, we think they had better learn something about Capt. Tillman's general reputation be fore they try to stab him with the in famous imputation of being the man to disrupt the Democratic party. Where was Capt. Tillman in'76? Was it not Gen. Gary, Butler, Tillman, and others, who proposed to and did put a straight -out ticket in the field, while the News and Courier thought the matter premature and unwise, and suggested that a fusion ticket would do best. We think we had better learn to do honor to those who de serve honor and not to those who are willing to compromise either by fu sion or otherwise. We will also call the News and Courier's attention to the sneering manner in which it speaks of the doffing of hats in the convention, in saying that one could see from the tall spring dunlap down to the plug hat of the plantation. Well, but those plug hats covered the heads of as true and loyal Democrats as were ever raised in South Carolina. They covered the heads of men that are going to prove a little too many for these ringsters, bosses, and those old sore-headed politicians who pro pose to have things their own way. We hear that one of the managing editors of the Nezws and Courier said that he would rather the State would go back into the hands of the Repub licans or negroes than for Tillman and his friends to get possession. If this be true we guess we know the reason why, for if it were to pass over into the hands of the negroes they could be cheated out of it, but if Till man and his friends get possession they will prove a little too sharp for these tricksters. We suppose the News and Courier thought that it had worked up a very sharp trick when it distributed those postal cards to gather in the senti ments of the people for governor, but how were they distributed ? We don't think that one of those cards was sent to a farmer in Clarendon; therefore, how was it possible -to get a fair and just expression from the masses of the people ? But a fair expression was not what was aimed at. The idea was throw as much of a damper over the country people as possible, but we rather think they missed their aim. We notice, also, that these newspa pes are giving in their advice very freely, as though it was solicited, ad vising the farmers to be very careful as to their proceedings, lest they split the Democratic party. When we want their advice we will call on them for it, so hold it in reserve, for we think we know what we are doing, and we don't propose to be duped. We know this much, at any rate, that we represent at least '75 or 80 per cent. of the voting strength, and that gives us the right to rule and we will do it; for we shall march up to Colum ba with a sufficient force to carry our point. The only place where we see that there is any danger of a split in the party is that when we make the nom inations most of the newspaper edit ors and all of the tricksters and all of those sore-headed politicians who may think there is no use to beg forgive ness for their many sins will make the split. We also call the attention of the Columbia Register to a small matter. It says, "with a whoop the Farmers' Convention nominated Capt. Tillman." We desire simply to say to the Regis ir that with a whoop we farmers are going to elect Capt. Tillman, too. We intend to do another thing also, to make all of those little newspapers 'feel the strength and power of the farmers after this, and we will let them see where their sopping in the pan comes from. We notice through the newspapers that Mr. Coit has declined the off'er made him by the convention: wvell, that's all right; we guess there are plenty of just as good men as Col. Coit, and some perhaps better; and Iwe know that when the farmers offer him nominations after this he will have learned how to appreciate coin plients as well as honors. We guess ve can put in another man that will come better up to the standard that we wish, anywvay. We noticed a little squib in the News and Courier, signed Old Guard. We don't know who Old Guard is, neither do we care to know, but it seems that he would like to intimidate somebody if he could, but we are not the crowd to be intimidated. Now, look here, fellows, this thing won't do; vo fellow~s are making too much fuss: ou must learn to be peaceable and quiet. We farmers have been quiet or a long time. Now give us a chance, for you all have had a good chance at the pickings for a long time. Now give us a chance, and let Ius see if there is any s:-raps left worth Ihaving. We know it's hard, but you fellows must not be so fussy, for we are bound to mako the nomiinations in August, let come what will. One of Dr. J. HT. McLean's little li cr and kidney pillets, taken at night before going to bed, will move the bowels; the~ enuet wil a~tonish you.

A large portion of the stock law fence, between Black and Santee rivers, was de stroyed by forest fires last week. Mr. R. 1H. Hurst lost 3,000 crossties by tire last Saturday night. They were piled on the bank of Black river ready for ship ment. They were not burned by forest fires, and it is not known how the tire orig. inated. The loss is a heavy one. The number of liens filed in the clerk's office to Aprl 1st, 1890. is 019. The nia ber filed to same date last year was 720. The number of chattel mortgages, for $100 or less, filed to April 1st, 1890, is 377. The number filed to same date last year was 483. The number of chattel mortgages for over $100, filed to April 1st, 1890, is 24o. The number of real estate mortgages filed to April 1st, 1390, is 97. The forest fires have done much destrue tion in some parts of the county this spring. Last week great loss was sustained by sev eral parties living south of the Northeastern railroad, between .Black and Santee rivers. Mr. W. D. Bryan lost a quantity of cross ties, a portion of his tramroad, besides hav ing his timber badly injured. Mr. J. E. iMcCullough lost nearly all his feneing; and several negroes, whose names we have not learned, lost their hous;es, provisions, etc. One of thew had his horse burned to death in the stable; the same man, after his dwell ing house caught fire, went into it and took out all the money he had, S2o or $25, and put it into his coat pocket, and then got on top of the house to fight the fire; his coat caught tire, and his money and everything else he possessed was destroyed. In the neighborhood of Fowler postoffice much damage resulted last week by forest fires in the destruction of fences, etc. It was with great difficulty that the houses of several colored men were saved. We are requested by them to express their gratitude to Messrs. H. M. and T. M. Cooper for their assistance in saving their property from the fire. HOW'S THIS!

The following is an extract from a letter written from Mr. D. A. Rey I nolds, editor and proprietor of the Herald, Lyons, Mich., under date of January 11th, 1890: "You will ob serve that I have given your adver tisenent position on the first page of the Iirald, while other proprietary medicines have had to take the run of the taper. The reason for doing this is, that upon receiving your "copy" a number of the cures effected seemed similar to that of which my little son was suffering, a case of i blood poison, or irritable sores break ing out all over his body. To-day he is entirely free from disease, and one bottle of Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) did the work. Now this is the reason for giving you The position, as I consider Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) the best medicine I ever saw. I wish you un limited success in your business." The above is a sample of letters which are coming to us all the time. S. S. S. is nearer infallible than any remedy made, and has probably clone more good than any medicine known to mankind.

It is especial lv severe in some portions of Orange burg county, and is very obnoxious to all who bave not contracted it, but the patient seems to rather enjoy the sensations caused by the disease. Our home physiciatns are quite reti ent, but a learned doctor in Charles ton pronounced it Tillmania, and has already given tup the job of trying to cure it. At last accounts it had as smed the form of an epidemic, and was spreading very rapidly. The learned doctor in Charleston has pretty strong symptoms, but it is thought he may miss it by the as sistance of "Old Guard" of the board of health, who has called a coni vention of doctors who wvill, nlo doubt, adopt a strict system of disinfection Iand quarantine.
