TD MANNING TIMES. MWam 3nIxxg 0. 40. S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, May 21, 1890, BUILD THE RAILROAD. Manning needs and must have a rail -road outlet to the Charleston, Sumter, and Northern railroad, and the future progress and prosperity of our town depends largely upon immediate ac tion in this matter. The Tims is now in posession of facts sufficient to warrant us in say Ing that the railroad officials are fa vorably inclined towards its construc tion, and the company will build it if Manning will but do her part. There is no gainsaying the fact that the road is an absolute necessity with us. .The gates to the garden spot of our -amnty are now opened to outside narkets, and we aie shut out. The -a'ns of Packsville, Silver, Summer ton, and the entire western part of our county, are now more accessible to Charleston and Sumter, than to their own county seat. With them oes their produce, and our largest keurrent of trade is turned away from na. Something must be done. Let a citizens who are interested in the road meet in the court house at an arly lday and take action. Preident Silver will be in Sumter Svithin the next ten days. Now let Cour town council call a meeting of the ciism and invite him to be present. 'Send a committee to escort him down, . show that we are deeply interested in >the subject, and our word for it, the road will be built. .We lave as yet done nothing to get the road; much can be done; fellow-citizens, we must do al that lies in our power. THE TOWO HALL. The town council has -called a meet .ing of the citizens of this town next Monday afternoon, to determine whether or not a town hall is to be built. Every citizen who is interest ed in this matter should attend, and very citizen should be interested. We have interviewed each member of .te town council and several of our citizens on this subject, and while :ome are very favorably inclined, oth ers say let's do something else. It's always something else. They have notethe proper spirit of progress Euont them that they should have; :tey do not long and love to see the town growing and improving; they -are not willing to spend a few dollars for the permanent and necessary im Eprovement of the town; they love Sthemselves entirely too much. An ef fort, and a strong effort, will be made aext Monday to kill out the town hall inovement. Let there be a full meet ing, and let it be clearly shown bow beats the pulse of progress in this M town. Mr. Moses Levi seems more alive Eto the interests of the town than any ~other merchant here. He says a suit able building can be erected for . $5000; that there would be no trouble inrenting the stores; and that with' ttie ordinary revenues, without bor so * baull could be paid cr four years>' M7Ivi is willing, if it is placed on any of is lots, to gire the lot to the town, and will also at the same time build adjoining the hall two additional ataes. That is the way we like to berone talk. Who else will make any such a proposition ? ' The next available lot is a splendid one lot, owned by Dr. S. C. C. :iihardson, and now planted in pota I es, that can be purchased for $2,000. 2All the people in that section of the tow favor this lot, and it would make -asplendid site, though we think the Space rather high. But we should not >~ind.a few hundred dollars, if it will Tiimply have the effect of getting our people to work together an-] for the Jgood of the town. They are now too Think over this matter; talk about 't; and come out next Monday to hon estly and conscientiously act for the best interests of the town. If you think a town hall, with two large itores, a market, etc., will benefit this :town, then vote for it, but if you -think that already we have as much ~life, and progress, and prosperity, and enterprise, as we need, then vote to kiRl the town ball question. We don'twant to stop at the town hail: we. want a fire engine, and a rail road, and a wagon factory, and a can ..ngatory, and a cotton factory, and some more business men full of life and vim. But we can't expect to Sallat once. The town hall and -engine and railroad, however, can be had at once, and let's have them. We are trying to get other men to invest their money for our benefit, as for instance, to build another railroad, but if these men see us next Monday selishly decline to make a small in vestment like building a town hall, they may conclude it is not just the kind of people they would like to build a railroad for. Let's build the town hall. Wade Hampton denies having ever even hinted that he would be a can didate for Governor in opposition to Ben Tillman. Tillman has the field all to himsef yet. The Orangeburg Enterpr'ise and Al l'ance Monitor, an eight page, six col unmn paper, with Fred Wannamaker as editor, made its first appearance last week. It is a nicely gc'en up paper, full of live and interesting matter. Two new bishops of the Methuist gpiscopal Church, South, were ele cte d Sn St. Louis last Monday: Rev. Attiens~ G. Haygood, of Georgia~, wh~o was elected bishop four years ago, but who, on account of the educational work in which he was engaged, de clined to accept the office; and Rev. 0. P. Fitzgerald, who for the past twelve years has been editor of the Nashville Christian Advocate. Subscribers will please remember the Tnars is CASH IN ADVANCE.

Plowden yesterday afternoon, on his return from the Anti-Tillman conference that was held yesterday in Columbia. He says nearly all the counties were rep resented, but that the meeting was held with closed doors and the pro ceedings were secret. No convention of Anti-Tillmanites will be called, and no candidate for Governor was sug gested, but the decided preference of the conference was for General John Bratton, of Fairfield. The idea is to put a strong man in the field to de feat Tillman. The representatives from this county at the conference yesterday, were: Wallace M. Plowden, 'of Manning; Samuel J. McFaddin, of Oakland; and J. Anderson Mills, of Wilsons. Mr. H. S. Briggs, of Silver, who was in Manning yesterday, tells us that a capitalist has invested in a con siderable tract of land around Silver, and proposes at an early day to build up the place. This capitalist will erect several stores and dwellings, and it is expected that Silver will at once boom into a young city. Mr. Briggs also expects to put up a large store and possibly some other buildings. Others are also speaking of building. Mr. Briggs thinks there is a bright future ahead for this growing little place. Tillman has accepted an invi tation to deliver an address at Silver at an early day. The new school house is nearly completed. The Tnmns is very popular. Politics is all one way. .Judge J. H. Mahoney, who holds the scales of justice at Packsvilie, was in town Mon day and says that the crops are good in his sectiori, and that eveiybody is being at tacked with Tillmania. Mr. J. T. Broadway. of Packsville. was in Manning Monday. He says that Mr. W R. White, of this place, has about completed the new Baptist church at Packsvil:e. The people of his section are delighted with the crop prospect. Next Saturday a pienic will take place at Packsville, and the rail road company has kindly offered the depot building for the use of the pienicaers. The political atmosphere is thick with Tillman ism, and the people seemed determined to make Tillman governor. These are the Men who Capt. Ben Tilhnan Says are Perjurers. [.Vemvn mal (burIer.] "I have just pointed out to you that ques tion about the apportionment," said Capt. Tillman to Attorney General Earle at the mass meeting at Anderson on Saturday last. "I stand here to-day, icejlhnj my words icell, and say that those men who in that legislalure, in 1884, swore to support the constitution (which I read) and which requires them to hold a census and reappor tion the representation, and they didn't do it, I say they pejred themselvys iul are cor rupt !" This is an infamous charge to make against any man or set of men. It will be interesting to learn who are these men that have been charged by Capt. Tillman with perjury and corruption. In his message to the General Assembly in November, 1884, Governor Thompson call ed attention to the provision of the consti tution directing that the enumeration of the inhabitants of the State for the purpose of the apportionment of the representatives be made in the year 1875 and in the census of every tenth year thereafter, and recom mended that "such aippropriation be made as may be necessary for this purpose." Sev eral bills upon the subject were introduced, and among them was introduced on Decem ber11 "a bill to provide for the taking the census of the population, industry, and wealth of South-Ga ina mn or before the iday of .June, 1885." This bill \vas laid on the fable on December 10. On motion or Mr. Lee, of Sumter, a lawyer, the House re considered the vote by which the bill had been tabled, and on December 18 it was passed by the House and sent to the Senate. The bill came up for consideration In the Senate on December 22. and caused consid erable debate. Upon the motion of Senator Maxwell, of Abbeville county, the enactmng words of the bill were stricken out by a vote of 19 to 15. The Senators who .oted in the affirmative and, therefore in favor of killing the bill were: Benbow, Biemann, Black, Buist, Byrd, Coker, Howell, Izlar, Maxwell, Moody, J. W. Moore, 31unro, Reynolds, Simmons, Smythe, Wallace, Wingard, Wood ward, and Toumans. The vote in the House on this bill is not given in detail in the House Journal. The names of the Senators who voted against it are published to-day to point the moral of Capt. Tillman's speech at Anderson. These are the men who are charged by Capt. Tillman with perjury and corruption. Do the people of Oconee county believe that Diedrich Biemann, of Walhalla, per jured himself or that he was corrupt ? What answer will the people oi Williams burg county make to the charge that Dr. Byrd is a perjurer or a corrupt man ? Who would dare say that W. C. Coker, of Dar lington-one of the best men in Sonth Car olina, an honest, Christian gentleman with clean hands and without reproach--peijur ed himself, or that he is corrupt ? Th'en there are Judge Izlar, of Orangeburg, and Gen. J. W. Moore, of Hampton, and Dr. John C. Maxwell, of Abbeville, and T. C. Moody, of Marion, and William Munro, of Union, does anybody believe that any one of these representative mhenl perjured him self or is corrupt ? Does anybody in Charleston believe that Buist and Simythe arecoruptmen and perjurers? Who woud dre aythat Benbow and Black and Howell and Wallace and Wingard and Woodward and Youmians are perjurers? Capt. Tillman has charged that nineteen Senators of South Carolina are felons; that they are guilty of a crime punishable by im prisonment in the penitentiary: that they are purjurers and corrupt men. He did not make this charge in the beat of debate, or in the nature of a confidential comnmuni Ication to a few choseti friends, lie pro laimed it from the stump at a public meet ing, before twelve or fifteen hundred people, and with the boast that lie was "weighing his words well." What answer have the men who are in cluded in the indictment to make to the charge ? Are you guilty or not guilty:. Does any man in South Carolina, does Capt. Tilman himself, believe that these men are perjurers and corrupt ? BUCKLEN'S ARINICA SALVE.

HAPPY HOOSIElRS. Win. Timmons, postmaster of Idaville, Id., writes; "Electric Bitters has done more for me than all other medicines com bired, for that bad feeling arising from kid ny and liver trouble." John Leslie, farumer and sockman, of same laice, says: "Find Electric Bitters to be the best ki lucy and liver medicine, made me feel like a new man." J. W. Gardner, hard ware mierchant, same town says: Eleetrie Bitters is just the' thing fora :m an who iis all run down and don't care whether lhe lives or dies; he found new strength, good appetite, anid felt just like he had a new lease on life. Only 50c. HOUSEHOLD NOTES. MRS. s. A. NETTLFS. REQUISITIN.-RuSkin says: "To be a good cook means the knowledge of all fruits, herbs, balms, and spices; and of all that is healing and sweet in fields and groves, savory in meats. It means carefulness, inveitiveness, watchfulness, willingness, and readi ness of appliance; it means the econ omy of your great-grandniothers, and the science of modern chemists; it means much tasting and no wasting; it means English thorougliness, French art, and Arabian hospitality; it means, in fine, that you are to be perfectly and always ladies (loaf-givers), and you are to see that everybody has scmething nice to eat." Music WE1GHT.-Any one who has ever played the piano or organ knows how difficult it is to keep music in place, particularly a small music book. To obviate this difficulty, it has long been the practice to stretch a piece of elastic braid across the rack, and to slip the music under the braid. A new idea is a weight made like a small bolster or rolling-pin. It is probably made of a short cylindrical bar of iron, covered w ith a silk cas ing. If not this, it is a little bolster cushion filled with something heavy like iron filings or emery. This weight is laid horizontally across the bottom of an open book or sheet of music, or else stood up perpendicular ly between the leaves. The weight is covered smoothly with bright-colored silk or satin, and decorated with balls or tassels at the ends.-Arthur's Home Magazine. In selecting a home, young house keepers should never choose one that is too large. A little house is so much prettier, and more suitable to a new ly married pair or any small family, besides taking comparatively little to furnish it. Do not fall into the mis take of thinking you must appear wealthy whether you are or not, but on the oth.r hand cultivate a love of all things beautiful. Be independent, and furnish your house to please yourself or at least, to suit your purse. In a great measure set your own fash ions; and if sensible You will be sur prised to find that many of your friends will follow them. Do not pur chase hastily. Make a list of articles needed for each room; and though nothing is more senseless than to rush out and into every furnishing store pricing everything and buying noth ing, it is well to look into at least two reliable places and inform yourself in regard to prices. If you state the case simply to the clerk in attendance, he will be anxious to secure your cus tom, and will show you his most at tractive bargains. When you secure the prices, see that the sum agrees with the amount you desire to spend. Be careful to consult your own com fort before purchasing. If you are to keep but one servant do not overload your parlor with trifiles that require time and patience to keep in order. Bronzes, if you can afford themi, are cheaper in the end than bisque or china ornaments, as they are unbreak able and require but little care. Do not purchase whait is called a parlor suit. Get thre6 pieces to match, lounge and two easy chairs, and for the rest pick up pretty chairs of willow or light wvood. Mlake cushions for these, gild the wood-work of the plain cha'rs, and weave ribbon through the open work of the willowv ones. Gipsy tables cost little, and are easily decorated or covered. K A Sad Condition. Isun'ered for five years with the worst form of blood poison, during which time I was attended by the best physicians I could Snd, and tried numbers of proprietary med icines without any beneficial results. I con tinued to grow worse all this time, until my whole system was destroyed by the vile dis ease; my tongue anda t hroat having great holes caused by it. I then commenced tak ing Swift's Specific (S. S. S.), and in a few months I was entirely cured, anid to this great medicine do I attiibute my recovery. This was over twoyears ago, and I have had no retur~n, or any effects of the disease since, and my skin is to-day as smooth and clean as anybiody 's. WnILuIut SowERs, C2ovington, Ohio.

Correspond ing Secretarv --Dear Sir: I have received your letter, accompanild by a copy of thie declar-ation of principles of the Farmers' Al liance. 1 roe nothing in this declacation that cannot lae inliy enlorseid by any in n who loves his country, who believes that the object of our Gioverrnment should be tile freedom, prosperity and happiness of all our people, and who believes that jiSi tice and fairness to all are necessary condi tions to its usefil admainistratioll. It has always seinael to 1mt, that the farm ers of the country were epecially interested in the equitable adjastnaamt of our tariff sys tenla. The inlifferenee they live shown to that question anal the ease with which they have leen led away from the sober conshi eration of their needs and their rights as related to this subject, have excited nay sur prise. Strnggle as theay may, our faxrna-.rs iiist continue to be purchase(s and con sniers of innibrrless things eiianced in cost by taril regulation. Surely they Lave the right to say that ths cost shall not be iierensed for the purp(ose of collecting un necessary revenue, or to give undne advan tage to domestic man afaciturers. Th jlea that our in fant industritos need protection, which thus imapover.shes the farinf r atnd consumer, is il view of our nati':a advan tages, and the 9i.1 and ingenuaity of oue people, a hollow pretext. SteugAe as they may, our farmers ea not escape the conidi tions which fix the price of what they pra dnee aid sell, accordng to ratas whil Ir vail in foreign makets, flooded witl the coipetition of coaxintries eajoyiag a frreer exchange of trade than we. The plaiusble presentation of the bles-ings of a home market should not deceive aur depressed and impoverished agrieuiturists. There is no- home market for theia which does not take its instructions froil tlae sea-board: aad the sc-a-board transmits the worth of the foreign markets.
