The County Executive Committee met in the Clerk of Court's office last Saturday morning, and was called to order by S. A. Nettles, County Chairman. Nineteen mem bers were present. Mr. J. Manning Welch was requested to act as secretary. The chairman reported that all the rolls had been regularly filed except Summerton and Har mony. The excuses from these two clubs were heard, and on motion the rolls of both clubs were received. The committee then adjourned subject to the call of the chair man. Bank Meeting. The first annual meeting of the stock holders of the Bank of Manning was held last Monday morning in the court house. A majority of the stock was represented in person and by proxy, though there were only eight persons present. The fellowing board of directors was eketed: Moses Levi, John C. Simonds, J. P. Brock, S. M. Nexsen, S. A. Rigby, A. Levi, W. E. Brown. The annual statement shows that the cap ital stock paid in is $29.920; expenses $2,545. 82; undivided profits $2,884.70. The affairs of the bank are in a healthy state, and will probably make more money this coming year than the last. Why Capt. Brailsford Was Not Nominated. It is but simple justice to Capt. D. W. Brailsford to state that he was not a candi date for any office before the convention last Friday. At his written and urgent request sanguine and eager friends had to withhold his name, thus showing that after all there is one at least, who, from the very incipiency of this movement, when those faltered who sit high in the synagogue to-day, fearless ly took his stand upon the high ground of principle and a conviction of right, without expectation or desire for recognition or re ward. .MsTICE. News from Silver. SiLvFR, Sep. 1.-Many troubled minds have been quieted, anxious fears subsided. The convention with its decision has been settled for all time to come. The past should be forgotten, peace ought to prevail, and every Democrat join hands to heal the breach brought about by o-ie of the most exciting campaigns in the history of our dear old State. In our county politics everything done may not suit everybody: there is dis satisfaction we all know. I am sorry that there should be. All could not get office. There was not a single candidate but what I considered a life-long friend to me. Each one wanted to be elected, each one expected it but alas ! this is the way of politics. Good men's ambition was disappointed; some were defeated after making a noble fight. TIhey are good men still, not a blot upon their record. The Connor Mounted Ritlemen made a grand display at their company drill on Saturday. The company in full uniform acquitted themselves most proficiently. Capt. A. L. Lesesne is a tir e commanding officer, and his subordinates, Lieuts. E. P. IBriggs and W. M. Butler add greatly to the Icompany's proficiency. It was my pleasure to artciptenot only to witness the drill, but to join them in one of the most excel lent dinners prepared for the occasion, when I did my own full share of wire pull ing. Dinner over speech making was in order. Mr. E. G. Duflose was first intro duced, and made one of the most pleasing, a sore conflict in the political arena he touched us all in happy style. Capt. A. L. Lesesne made an impressive address to his~ command. With such an appeal I have no doubt they will endeavor to keep the organ ization abreast, ranking with the best com panies in the State. Speeches were also made by Lieut. B. P. Briggs and Orderiy Sergeant A. J. Richbourg. The ladies' festival added another letter tc the grand chapter in Silver's history. This church enterprise is bound to be a success. Where there is so much determination sue cess must be the ultimate crowning victory. When woman fails all fails. Heaven's bless ings seem to help and favor the ladies o: Silver. Their cause is a noble and gracioul one. Why not come one and all, and aid them in the building of thris church. On the 4th of October we look for tw< thousand people at Silver. All the Alliance: may expect a royal treat. Stokes, Talbert and others of our great men will be here yes, Capt. B. R. Tillman, too. Not to tall on politics but to tell the farmers how t< make corn and cotton, and talk to us o matters that concern the farmers' welfare. 'he star route from Manning to Panol: is to be discontinued, and a new route fron Silver to Panola after the 3rd of Septemb will be started. Mrs. C. B. Jones, the oldest lady in th< 1 neighborhood, for months has lingered ii 1 the very jaws of death. She is in her 82n< year, and her attending physicians thin] er case a hopeless one. Mr. Manning Moore, formerly of State burg, has accepted a position as clerk for A t C. Briggs. The public highways, hedges, roads, an< bridges have all been trimmed and fashion .ed to proper order. To all of which I ar indebted to good, diligent, public spimte oversers. On the 30th Mr. Stark Jenkinson an Miss Annie Abrams, daughter of Mr. an Mrs. R. J. Abrams, were happily marriei TOM. -WHY IT IS POPULAR. Because it has proven its absolute meri over and over again, because it has an un, -(ualled record of cures, because its busine: is conducted in a thoroughly honest manne: e and because it combines economy an e strength, being the only medicine of whic t .10 Doses One Dollar"-is true - these strora e points have made Hood's Sairsaparilla ti most successful medicine of the day. A Shooting Scrape. Edward Tisdale, a negro working at SM Davis's mill, was shot this morning 1 [t James Johnson, the sawyer at the same mi: ~'It appears that Tisdale gave Mr. Johns< 0 some impudence yesterday, and was ordert *e by Johnson to leave and not to return, else he would shoot him. The negro disr garded the warning, and put in his apperi ance this morning at the mill. Johnson g hi double barrel gun and gave Tisdale tl - Icntents of one barrel, a load of bird shc wonding him in his right leg. The woui while no't necessarily 'dangerous is ye st painful. A warrant has been issued for t ~Iarrest of Johnson. Mr. Johnson lived in this place a fe :ears ago), and kept a fruit stand in pairtne (y ship with Mr. P. '1. Drayton.

Sumter, Sep. 1, 1890. A State Without a Tax. HAnrTFoD, CoNN., Sept. 2.- Exercising the right granted him by the last Legislature State Treasurer Henry has formally notified the selectmen of the towns of Connecticut that the tax usually levied by the State on towns will not be called for this year owing to the flourishing condition of the State's finances. Treasurer Ie nry will pay $200. 000 of the State's bonded debt on Novei er 1st. THE BEST ADVERTISING. The most efticient advertising in behalf of Hood's Sarsaparilla is that which comes from the medicine itself. That is. those who are cured by it, speak to friends sutl'r ing similarly, who in turn derive benetit and urge others to try this successful medi cine. Thus the circle of its popularity is rapidly widening from this cause alone, and more and more are becoming enthusiastic im behalf of Hood's Sarsaparilla as it actually demonstrates its absolute merit, All that is asked for Hood's Sarsaparilla is that it be given a fair trial. If you need a good blood purifier, or building up medicine, try Hood's Sarsaparilla. He Observed the Signal. Maud-1'll never fiirt again if I live to be a hundred. Annie-Why, dear?

CoLmmuA, Sept. 1.-- T1he Santee ('ypres: umber Company, a rich combination u hicago capitalists, are worth imili'ons, an: re tbe largest producers of cypress lumibe in the United States, having mills from thi Pacific coast to New Orleans. They are no' building two huge cypress mills at New Oi leans and are putting up a monster mill ai Eutawville-br Pond Blutf, on the Santet - ive miles distant-which will have a capac t of 100,00 feet a day.

What is Scrofula -It is that impurity in the blood, which, accumu lating in the glands of the neck, produces uni sightly lumps or swellings; which causes painful running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which a developes ulcers itn the eyes, ears, or nose, often r causing blindnesst or deafness; which is the origi of imples, cancerous growths, or many other manifestatIons usually ascribed to " humors.'' ) It is a more formidable enemy than consumtlptionl or cancer alone, for scrofula combines the worst ~possible features of both. Being the most ancient, itlls the most general of all diseases or affections, for very few persons are entirely free from it. Ilow can it be cured ? By taking Hood's Sarsa 1parilla, which, by the cures it has accomplished, often whten other medicines have failed, has proven itself lo be a potent and peculiar medicine for this disease. For all affectIons of the blood Hood's Sarsaparifla is unequalled, and some of the cures It has effected are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula in any of its varIouS forms, be sure to give Hood's Sarsaparilla a trial. Hood's Sarsaparilla Sold byall druggists. $1; sIx for $5. Prepared only eby C. z.
