D~on't fail to call at Levi's if you wants a straw hat of the latest style. The attention of the county com missioners is called to the dangerous ~ condition of the lightning rod on the court house. The rod was broken ~ som'e time ago, and in its present con dition is even more dangerous than ~ no rod at all. A fine line of fancy groceries and fresh b lemons at ]Kalisky's' Some years ago a former town a council had a lot of sign boards paint- ~ ed with the names of the streets on t them. We would suggest that the e present council instruct the marshals i, to nail them up on the corners, so o. that people may know the names of a the different streets. i Do your eyes need help ? If so call on J. G. Dinkins & Co. and be fitted with a pair ~ of Aqua-Crystal spectacles or eye glasses. Mr. R. D. Thames, of Wyboo, says ~ that he planted cotton last Tuesday, ~ and had a good stand by Saturday. ~ He also tells ns that a Texas pony ~ belonging to Wesley Reams has been running at large in the woods near him for about two weeks. Parties i have been organized to catch it, but with no success. Kialisky will always keep on hand a good ~ stock of lime, coppteras, and plaster of pan-s. Complaint has been made about the closing up of the street running ~ -from Brooks street in a westerly di rection by Mr. B. A. Johnson's. The residents in that portion of the town a say that the street belongs to the town f and was closed several years ago with out authority. It would be well for the council to look into this matter. J1. G. Dinkins & Co. are agents for the celebrated Aqua-Crystal spec-tacles and eye glasses. Call and examine them. Messrs. H. H. Lesesne and I. I Bagnal have returned from their Flor ida excursion, and say that they had I a very pleasant trip although they did not put up at the Ponce de Leon Ho- 8 tel at St. Augustine, as it was closed. E Everybody visiting St. Augustine is expected to put up at the Ponce de C -Leon, the finest hotel in the world. M!. Kalisky has just opened up a fine line of men's, youths', and children's clothing; also a very stylish assortment of straw hats.1 The new council have commenced It their work of improvement, and have I a gang of hands on the streets, open ing ditches, filling up holes in the8 streets, repairing the bridges, and. placiug new posts at the corners to t prevent persons from driving across the sidewalks at the corners of streets. e They are also putting up more street lamps. A newv street running through f the back end of the old jail lot has een opened, and it will be of great! ben*feit and couvenience to those owvn ing lots in that section of the town. - West Boundary street has been great ly improved, and now presents the aprance of a street instead of a cast aside roadway. Thie public pumps have also been repaired, and the coun i intend to continue improving un til every street, bridge, anid sidewvalk that needs work shall have beeni put in lirst class condition.

Trinity DAlliance meets next Satur ay afternoon at 3 o'clock. This Al ance has just completed a neat and ommodious alliance hall at Trinity ross roads. The dues of the Young Men's Build g and Loan Association must be aid the 1st day of the month, or a ne of ten cents a share is added. o-morrow, May 1st, the fourth in tallment must be paid, or the fine will ttach. In the absence of the secre iry and treasurer the dues may be aid to Mr. Louis Appelt. T. H. Harilee and Lawrence Bis tt, conductor and engineer, respec ively, of the train that caused that nfortunate accident some time ago t Pinewood, have been arrested, barged with criminal carelessness. 'hey were carried before Judge Fra er and admitted to bail for their ap earance at Ie coming term of court. Mr. C. L. Emanuel, of the Fork ction, took a trip to Florence last reek, and was absent two days and a ight. During his absence some one ho had a key to his store entered it nd stole therefrom about $75 worth f goods. Mr. Emanuel and some of is friends tracked the parties into an djoining bay, where they found a art of the goods. The theives were Jree white boys about grown. Such nduct should be severely punished. hese boys should be handled in some ray. Read This Offer. Having become convinced from ob arvation that there are many ersons in the county who are not now iking the MANING Tnms simply be use they are unacquainted with its iany merits, and that if they once ontracted the habit of looking for rard to their county paper every reek, they would not be able to do rithout it, we have determined to and out the paper on a "trial trip" at pecial rates. To all subscribers not ow on our list who will pay us the m of FIFTY CENTS in advance, re will send the Msxximo Tmns from Ae date of said payment until Nov. 5, 1890. As the regular price of the aper is $1.50 per annum, it will be Den that this offer, now made solely >r the purpose above mentioned, is ideed a generous one. The date of spiration, Nov. 15th, is named in rder that these special subscribers, lould they decide to discontinue at ais time, will be able to obtain any ray the full election news, for it must ot be forgotten that 1890 will doubt ass prove, for reasons too numerous >enumerate at this time, one of the ost important election years which as been known in South Carolina nce the war. Schoost for Fun! The practical joker has been at ork again in Manning. Last Mon-. ay Mr. Kalisky while at the postoffice iscovered that the postmaster had soughtlessly left his watch on the ounter, and thinking it would be a 'ood time to have a little fun he took Lie watch and walked off saying to imself, "'De next time he vili pe more areful." When the postmaster discovered is lobs he naturally became alarmed ad went about trying to discover the iscreant. He soon learned who had ommitted the theft and at once sought e trial justice, who issued a warrant barging larceny without felonious tent. The document was turned ver to the sheriff, who immediately rested Mr. Kalisky and carried him ito court. The trial justice read the charge to Ir Kalisky, and asked him if he was uilty, whereupon he acknowledged at he had taken the watch "schoost r fun." His candid admission cre ted considerable laughter and the iatter was dismissed. Such jokes should not be indulged i generally, but the officers of the n, being fond of fun and to relieve be dullness that now prevails in the ourt house, allowed thernselves to ecome parties to this practical joke n one of our jolliest and most highly steemed merchants. In order', how ver, to have given the matter a look seriousness, the trial justice before .ismissing him, because he did it schoost for fun,"~ should have used be strong arm of the law to make Jr. Kalisky set 'em up to R~oyal Vreath cigars "schoost for fun." Bargains at M. Levi's. M. Levi has a tremendous stock of dies', gents', and children's shoes' rhich he proposes to sell at very low gures in order to unload.

The finest lot of neck ties and cra ats ever brought to Manning from n cents up to 75 cents, former irices from 25 cents to $1.25. A fine lot of bicycle shirts of all ades will be sold very cheap.

Call News and Comment frm ti reeleyvill GnRs EELE Y.lF, April ' .- dor .a;,m Theis: The political pot has begun to s mer a little in Williams urg, but no bubi have disturbed the qui .A of this southwl ern corner as vet. If Gen. McCrady a.d Col. Stackho could have control of thc fnel, the boilU point would be reached . quietly, steadi and surely, and without waste of fluid food. Much that is written on the political si ation is mere twaddle; much is harsh a irritating, altogethcr out of order and consistent with a due regard for the op ions of others, or the demands of courte not to speak of that christian' charity wh is "not easily provoked and thinketh evil." Gen. McCrady says, "Our political c dition is a very serious one, but -ill not mended by denunciation and harsh er cism." Col. Stackhouse suggests that citize 'take into the discussion that broad char which construes words and deeds in th most favorable light, granting honesty purpose and good intentions to others." Mr. Tillman may not be the best man, all respects, for governor, but if he is t only man that has the grit and grip champion the cause of farmers, without juriously antagonizing other professioi then the farmers ought to agree to be vot dolts if they don't support him in the p mary electio-.

With good wishes for your deserved si cess, Yours truly, J. M. D Tillman Gaining Strength. EnIron Matsa TIMS :-1 have be thinking for some time past of writing a f lines for your paper. I am not a snbscril now, but with these rambling sentences y will find the price of subscription. I had not been in accord with the sen ruents expressed by a number of your c respondents until a kind neighbor loan mne a copy of last week's issue. "Pan< Farmer" and "Conservative" were so carn that it put me to thin king whether or no could afford to hang on to a set that he been ruling us and by their rule have caus )ur people to array themselves a'imost sol ly against them, or join in with my brotl Carmers and battle for what they believe be just and right. Now in these battles some get excited a hurl anathemas at the opposition, accusi them of corraption, extravagance, favor ism, and of allowing the government to run by rings. In my humble judgme anless the corrupt or extravagant official c be named and his conduct examined inti think it very wrong to make such a swe ing charge, for when called upon to sust: that charge a failure is the result. I am: satisfied that the present State er ernmnent has been honestly administeredi believe that all our State oficeials are honi able men, I believe that they have Sot Carolina at heart, but I believe that t management of the government can be ma more economical. In the first place the la as they stand allow many oflices whichc be done away with; in the second place much money is being spent where the pl ple are but little benefitted (stenographer tud in the third place the legislature in ti ing to make people believe that by being session about thirty days they are practici tconomy, wvhereas all the work is done the latter part of the session, and in t hurry the laws are badly gotten up and c< the people more than they are wvorthi. I am fully convinced that with such a m ts B. R. Tillmnan at the head of affairs, al i legislature holing the views that he hol something will be done that will be of be afit to the people, and after such men h: terved until they become indifferent th invite them to step down and out for a n, set. I am the last man that would chat fraud, corruption, and extravagance to t men that hnve been leading us in the p: because I do not believe them guilty, an only favor a change because there is diss isfaction and unrest among the people, a a new set of men to rule them may harin< ize things and put a s:top to the everlasti cry and howl that is making night and d hideous all over the land. Captain Tillmnan was selected by a c vention of farmers, and ever since that cc vention some newspapers have done nothi but fill their editorial columns with abut They have called him all kinds of h: names, have even gono so far as to ridic, his personal appearance, spoken snaeerin: of his having only one eye, until the ab' of Tillmnan amounts to persecution. Th< is no better way of gaining sympathy io man than for the newspapers to be1 hounding him down without a just cau and this everlasting crying down an'd tryi to besmireh Tilhaan has done more strengthen him than any of his sine" friends have (lone for him. What is the matter with Tillman? W has he done to bring about all thiR wrat Has he been shrewd enough to outwit sot: body, an d by doing so will get a position himself or for somebody else that was5 lected for another man ? If so he is a "dais; because I know that a man to outwvit a cros of men that have made politics life-til study and profession must be of no ordint ability, and I believe he would make a fit class general to lead a people in a war this kind. This fight is nothing more less than a question of "you are in ant want to get in; you have been in until y have grown careless; if I get in I will im: tuts certain reforms because I am fresh fri the people that were promised reforms."
