THE MANNING TIES S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEBNESDAY, AUGUST 6, 1890. ANII INTOLERANCE. This political campaign has been a hard and cruel one, in which friend has been pitted against friend, broth er against brother, father against son. The fight has been, on the one hand, to-retain a tenure of office held for a number of years, and, on the other side, to infuse by means of new men and new measures a new lease of life in to an old body nearly paralized from in action. Each side has produced lead ers worthy of the other's steel, al though from the outset the odds were fearfully against the regulars-those who deserve the name from having held office regularly for so many years. Things have been said and done on both sides that were wrong, but es pecialy has this wrong doing been prominenton the Anti side. Naturally, like a dam about to be deprived of her whelps, they have used every pos sible means to defeat the Reformers, and in some instances very question able mans have been employed. The church is a holy institution, and its consecrated ministers should never descend to the level of politics, as known now of days. Every man, be he priest or layman, is entitled to his opinion and the right to freely expresa such, but, as in all things, a minister should be careful and con siderate in expressing his views, so as not to offend. As we said above ev my man who has an opinion has the ight to express it, and we have great er respect for a man who, when called upon, fearlessly gives his views on any sabject, but may a kind Provi aence deliver us from the blatant, proselyting, demogogical preacher *ho would dare to invade the sacred desk, for the purpose of making a po litical speech obnoxious to the avow ed principles of a large number of his own congregation. And yet, from the depths of our heart we are sorry to say, there are such to be found in our own State, men who have so far forgotten the principles of decency and godliness as to denounce Tifman from the pulpit. The Antis many of them have in almost every way shown a despicable spirit of in tolerance unworthy the education and intelligence they clanm for themselves, Two weeks ago, because the Southern Chrisian Advocate, the organ of the Methodist Church in this State, con tained in its news columns a few con densed items stating for whom cer tain county conventions had nominat ed delegates, and, as it happened, because all the State political news was favorable to Tillman, and the Ad -vocate had truthfully stated it as it was, some rabid Antis flew into a mountain of rage and threatened to atop their paper. Such intolerance! Not a word had been said about poli-I tics inthe editorial column, and thei editor had not even prepared this news summary, yet these intolerant Antis threatened to boycott the pa per unless it remained silent or else edabout it. Dr.iKirkland, the ed itor of the Advacate, is a pure, noble, intelligent minister, of too exalted character to become a blatant politi cian, but with hib large and liberal views, we believe that were he to take issue in the contest he would be on the side of Tillman and reform. And so do we believe about our honored - ishop Duncan. His son, a graduate of Wotford College, and a gentleman of wealth, intelligence, and family in fluence, the chairman for several years of the Democratic party in Union county, is an ardent supporter of Ben Tillmnan and the farmers' movement. A very large number of the purest and ablest and most intelligent peo ple in the State favor Tillman for governor, and yet some of these Antis, some of them with scarcely an old cornfield education and but little *horse sense, the more ignorant the more intolerant have the impudence to say they are not able to see how sneh and such an intelligent gentle man can support Tillman. They are -excusable for saying such for they don't know any better. Companisons are odious, but sup pose that on campaign day in this place the ladies of any one of the churches in town had met in front of their church, with a Tillman banner ---sspended from the lamp post in front of the church, for the purpose of do in .honor to Tillman as he passed whtwould have been the result ? Such a howl of indignation would have been raised that an outsider would have believed the unpardona ble sin had been committed. And yet, had the same thing been done for Earle or Bratton, as we understand it was done at one of our churches, not a word would have been said against it, for, except an Anti, no man, with any charity in his soul, would do nounce any such mild demonstration. Any preacher does right publicly or privately to endorse Earle or Bratton, but if he is in favor of Tillmian and the farmers' movement he is threat ened with dire results. We have drawn no fancy picture; we are not writing in unkindness; but coolly and deliberately we have penned our honest convictions. CAMPAIN MISREPRESENTATIONS. We regret that our columns were so crowded last week that we could not then comment on the misrepre sentations of the News and Courier on the Manning campaign meeting. Almost everybody in this county was1 present at that meeting, and they can easily judge for themselves. First, we give without comment the head lines of the News and Courier and of the World. The Newvs -and Courier says: Tillman in a corner-Forced to promise to work for a primnary-Col. Earle pins the geat bamboozler down to a promisetog before the August convention and pleadfo a primary-No disorder at Manning after all the blustering talk-The banners of the traightoustog seceb Gen. Brat The World says: A quiet meeting-No rowdyism mars the day at Manning-Tillmnan and Earle have a C passae at arms-A large gathedring of Dem-t otin, the majori ty of whom favor the nom- t instiom of Tmlman for Governor-An appa 1 to the ladies by the "'handsome man" eh fares of the day. Thel News and Courier begins its account of the meeting thus: Ctrhar t. the@ enpetation! of all the ,andidates and the citizens of Clarendon mcunty, the campaign meeting yesterday at Manning was one of the most orderly yet held. Now that correspondent simply drew on his imagination in saying "contrary to the expectations." There were some people, in and out of the county, who anticipated trouble, and a few that longingly hoped for trouble, but the large majority of our citizens had individually pledged themselves to preserving order on that occasion, and we know a great many of them believed with us that we would have a quiet meeting. So con fident were we that the meeting would be quiet that when the question of appointing a large number of police men was mentioned to us, we at once declared it to be utterly useless, and that four or five extra policemen would be sufficient. The Intendant agreed with us, but in case of a possi ble difficulty, it being rumored that a large number of Sumter and Colum bia "roughs" would atiend, the coun cil decided to appoint fifteen special police for the day. Our estimate of the good sense and gentlemanly prin ciples of the people of Clarendon proved correct: there wasn't a dis turbance in the town during the day. 'rue, there were several hundred vis itors here from adjoining counties, representing both factions of the par ty, but they each and all conducted themselves in a gentlemanly manner. As concerning the rumor of pulling Col Earle from the stand we doubt if there were a half dozen men, good, bad, or indifferent, that for a moment entertained so discourteous an act. Col. Earle is a personal friend of too many people in this county for such to be contemplated, and we dcubt if there is a man in this county that would have attempted such a thing. If such a thing had been attempted the Tillmanites, these misguided be ings, would themselves have instantly prevented it. The Tillman men ; this county have rc grievances against Col. Earle: they birply are on the other side of his fence. The News and Courier after con ceding that this county is for Tillman, kindly and charitably excuses the "straightouts," on the ground of "neg ligent of their duty." This is the unkindest cut of all. The Antis cer tainly have been remarkably diligent in their efforts- in this county, and we would say they were proportionately more largely represented here at the campaign meeting. Men seldom work more earnestly and enthusiastically for the success of a cause than have our friends, the Antis, during the past few weeks. As for the unkind insinuation about the negroes present, we suppose there were one hundred and fifty, and of this number about a dozen Demo crats, equally divided between Earle and Tillman. Here is another paragraph: The meeting was attended by a very large number of ladies of pronounced straightout preferences. This is a delicate matter, but from what can be learned, we would say the ladies were equally divided. One important thing in this connection, we never heard of a lady in that crowd so far forgetting her ladylike charac ter and principles as to make any slurring remarks about the personal defects and appearances of Earle or Bratton, and it is a question if a true lady or gentleman ever slurs at the physical defects of another. That the Earle badges were in a majority is simply incorreet: among the voters there were two or three Tillman badges to one Earle badge. As to 'Iillmnan being forced into a corner, CoL Earle turning to Capt. Tillman asked him if he would advo cate a primary in the State conven tion. Tillman promptly and distinct ly replied that he would. He had be fore made the same promise to Earle. Where is the force ? It certainly re quires very torturous sophistry to make such a manly and candid reply appear as a forced promise. In Monday's paper, in condensing the news of the preceding day's pa per, we find this, which our readers map themselves judge as to what is meant: The Clarendon county campaign meeting a~t M1anning on Saturday was a victory for the straightouts. And now in conclusion, in all kind ness but in defense of the county of Clarendon and of the candidate whom the majority of the people favor we say it is too small for a great paper like the News and Courier to conde scend to such a plan of journalism. Let justice be done; let truth be the cud-sill and the granite walls of the ntire construc'hn; and let this great paper so change its course and policy bhat our people shall cease to feel or fear that almost every article in it is a isrepresentation, twisted and con erted agreeable to the ends and pur oses of evil and designing politi nians. WYE ARE CONSISTENT. The Truss has never changed its pinion in regard to Tiliman and :he farmers' movement, but stands to lay exactly where it has always stood. [t is not with us a question of expe liency, but of truth and principles. We reproduce below an editorial that e wrote just two years ago, and which sounds very much as if we had ust written it. It was published Aug. 9, 188. Compare this and anything lse we have written on the subject, nd it will be found that we have been ~horoughly consistent. We have al ways advocated the farmers' interests, td expect ever to continue in the ;ame channel. If at any time, how ver, we should believe that the farm t are taking a bachward track, no e in the State would sooner sound general alarm. Here was our posi ion two years ago: THAT MAN TILLMAN. On our first page wilt be found accounts f the campaign meetings at Sumter and 'lorence. These accounts are from the ews and Courier, and written by a mtan rho hates Tillman. We are no advocate of Ellman, though we admire many things in he man and some things he advocates; and specially do we admire in this free country reedom of speech. Tillman and a number f the Chester citizens disgraced themselves n Chester in insulting the Governor of the tate-Tillman in saying he had no respect or Gov. Richardson, and the citizens in eling to the Governor to sit down. Till an, however, immediately retracted what .0 said, but the disgraceful stigmia still rests n Cheater. Tillman has been at most of: ie campaign meetings, and comes out of hem with considerable glory. By his man-i conduct he has won the confidence and espet of the people, and while they still onsider him an unsafe leader and wanting a judgment, et be has conclusively proven imself to be a man of true principles, a trave man, and withal a staunch Democrat, bully-like, attempted Monday, in Black ville, to tbre him, on the speakers' staid, to a hand to hand fglit, but Tillman refused, saying ladies were present, but he would give him an opportunity later. This agita tion of public affairs will do good, and can do no harm. Tilbihan is one of the smart est men in the State, only he lacks jndg ment to balance his great zeal. In another column we publish a letter from Congressman G. W. Dar gan, in which he declines again to be a candidate for Congress. Mr. Dar gan has been in Congress for ten years and has proved himself an able and honest representative of his dis trict. He retires with the well done and best wishes of the State.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES. MnS. S. A. NETTLEs. WASHING WOOLEN GooDs.-So many young housekeepers complain of the shrinking of flannel underwear, wool en stockings, and children's woolen dresses, that it would be well for all such to learn how these articles should be washed, even if it is not necessary that the housewife should do the work herself. A bright clear day, should be se lected for washing woolen clothes. Before beginning, shake the gar ments to be washed, vell, to free them from dirt and lint, and use soft, clean water-not too hot, but warm. Soap should never be rubbed on woolen goods, as it shrinks and hardens the fabric; even soap suds is injurious. Warm water, with a tablespoonful of Pyles' Pearline added to every three gallons, will be found excellent for flannels, particularly articles of deli cate colors, that would be liable to fade if washed with soap. In washing woolen or merino cloth ing, never rub them on the wash board, or with the hands, but cleanse them by drawing them up and down through the hands-in the water. When clean, ring them as dry as pos sible, then rinse in a tub of water the same temperature as the suds. A little pearline added to the rinse water will soften the woolen articles. Shake each piece well. Shake it out in proper shape to hang smoothly on the line, in the shade. The washing should be done early in the morning, so the garments will dry before night. The quicker they are dried the better they will look. In turning woolen goods, after they are dried, take them from the line, spread them out carefully on an iron ing board, wring a clean cloi.h out of clear tepid water, and lay over the ar ticle, then iron with a very hot iron until dry. Continue this until the garment is all ironed; garments witb seams-such as pants-must have the seams pressed out first. A coat of varnish will make an oil cloth look brighter and wear longer. Salt dissolved in alcohol, will re move spots of grease from cloth. Cups and saucers stained with tea, may be made bright again by rub bing them with damp salt. Use a coarse sponge for washing windows-a newspaper for polishing them. Lamp chimneys should never be washed. Breathe on them and polish with a soft linen cloth or tissue paper. To remove sewing machine oil, wet the spots with spirits of turpentine, and wash out with cold water and toilet soap. BUCKLEN'S ARNICA SALVE.

B R)OiJ'%'S IRON liT2';J:S. g yI cu.rs ycii. aui sive a. y lrtappite, Sol nu tr all meectt se. Avaunt! Ye Radicals. To my political friends, gentlemen:--Tell me not that the best people at the North are those who would force upon us an ignorant, huimiliating, and ionopoliz'ng legeneracy. Don't ti-lt me that they are RepLlicans. Don't tell me that a Nortlern Jb10ublican is of* 'o hatefula tam11p. Nay, Northern Re publieaus:- (thoughll ve ry f'w ind.eed thi-ro bI) belong to no e-h iiibilatonator ve t of fa naties. Thev are ,-ntlcnu-n atid patriot, and would not etolp to acts of politit-al Ilis honor. ]ut the Northe-rn radicals feel thei inferiority to liouorablc men, anl can there fore do nothiniggfentleoanly and fair, except by ier e a-cci dent. Eviry civilizd nation that has ever existed has had to eontendl with radicalisi. Yes, and every one of th-iji fmnd out to their sorrow, when quite too late, that fanaticism (the cuamron ene my of man) is the foundation of monopo lies, boycottings, strife, and revolution. We might say to a brother Democrat or a patri otic Republican in the language of another: "Brother, brother, we are both in the wrong." But to the heartless radical wc would point with indignant scorn, and ap. ply to his disgusting creed this apt senti ment of Abuthnot. "A bottomless pit that devours everything.- As a Democrat I would defiantly hurl in his imludent face this appropriate line of Scott, "My foot is on niy native heath." Gentlemen, our only hope of regaining our lost lioerties and of being allowed to act once more as freemen in every sense of the word, is in the wisdoni, purity, and strength of the great Democratic party of our com mon country. )emocracy ! There is a charm in that word ! It's trne meaning is just this: Political strength, health, beauty, and purity given to the people by the peo ple. Any innovations which admit of radi cals and their associates to membership in Democratie combinations will be sure to weak, - our national Democratic power, whicL 1., of such paraiinnt importance to the Southern States at this present juncture of time. You can trust them if You will. but let me tell vou the future will be sure to remind you of that which I declare to you to-day. Keep the goats away from the sheep, and all will yet be well. I tell you that the "weal or woe" of the Southern States de pends entirely upon the strength of our na tional Democracy. Let us see to it then that every organization (be it business or 1;o. tital) has none within its sacred fold that are not. jffersonian Democats. The only honorable, Iahk, nl in st "rule of action" for Democrats to fellow is simply this: Down with the radicalsanl their infernal uioneyed combinations, nursed and fed by the pi'c' tective tariff, that they may keep the, poor so dependent, as that they can easily con trol their votes, and thereby hold on to of fice and to national authority. Gentlemen, open your . ves, and look this tariff mon ster in the face. The ultimate effects of moneyed combinations upon the political and pecuniary rights of the poor tre indeed too frightful to contemplate. I mean pra tective tariff combinations. For without the assistance of the protective tariff combina tions can be so checkmated by kindred com binations and other different vocations in life as that one dollar in a poor man's hand will be worth qinite as much as two under the protective system. Combinations when protected by a tariff law become not only oppre;sive, but they create confusion by the poverty they have recklessly erected. Don't von see that the radicals at the North under stand their unholy political card'playing quite too well to differ upon any subject that wonld interfere with their power as a unit in politics ! Our Demiocratic duty then is to checkmate these political interlopers by using our best efforts (not against Diemo crats) to make a unit of American Demoe racy. By no other method whatever can these me'ddlesomue people he taught good manners enougi.h to make them mind their own business and let the South alone. We can differ from and ibe respectful to Dei-o crats at the saine time. Bt we should nlever give our Northern tarii worshipers a I chance to profit by our mistakes. Direct taxation and free trade would relieve the piorr, administer j ustice to the rich, and add to the wealth, happiness, and pr'osper ity of our wvh< le country. Gen. B3ratton has toy best wishes, and will get nmy vote sure. I do not occupy a scat on the sie of the DIncocratic hense wvhere sit Mr. T1ilhman andl his friends. .Sut if he should be nominated1 by the Septem ber conv'ention of c:ourse I will do all I can to secure his election. Si) will every other good Democrat in South Carolina. Just let Ellery M. Brayto'n dare to make a track in the field of polities against Mr. TIillnian or any other Demoucrat in South Carolina, if he wants to feel the weight of onr united D~emocracy. Mr. Tillman is asu much against boycottings andl monopolies as J. am. Read his Greenville specch if you demand the evidence. What said Mr. Tillman at Ridge way ? He said just this: "We have but one party. We dare have but or e." I searcely think Elecry M1. Brayton and his followers understand our true situatiion. "A soft an swer tur-neth away wrath" among good Demi oerats, but no words catn touch the hearts of radicals. If the radicals take Mr. Tillmuan and his friends to be made up of such stuff as they are they will lear'n better in dne time. ~Some ot' my warmest friends are with Mr. 'Tilhaain -hand and heart." In the "New York Weekly Tribune, We'd nesday, -July 2, 1s20," I read this ,vonder' ful misatatement with scorn and disdain: "-The demand of a large club heretofore Democratic that Tillman shall i-un as an independent if he fails to receive the nomi nation for gover-nor from the Demiocratie convention." .If such were the ease no ne'wspape'r maan would have been ac-quaint ed of the fact. In the next place, Mr. T1ill man would not be any~ more popiular in South Carolina under such a stigma than is the editor wljo woul publish such an im possibiliiv'. I would not have noticed the misstatenient at all wvere it not the impera tive duty of ev'ery Democrat to defend a brother Demiocrat, however .vide apart may be their views and opiniorns. And since I have been informed that Elfery M1. Blrayton is looking out for otlice, I guess the misstate ment was circulated for the purpose of di viding the Democracy of South C'arolina. If any of my friends wh'ose political views harmoniz.e with muine think I am singing to the tune of "-aceoon on a rail,' I shall vote with them ''anyway." Poverty of bank or- people bring seririus contraction. Perhaps our contraction of the vohune of' money was caused lby the depend eney of' the poor upon the rich.
