The political cauldron of bitterness continues to simmer in some parts of the State, and a continuation of all sorts of threats fill the political atmos phere. The people of South Caroli na have for a long time allowed the threats of a certain class of politicians to keep them from asserting them selves and throwing from power those whom they desired to displace, but this year the people concluded to try a change of men, and so far have suc ceeded in placing a brand-new State ticket in the field. As soon as this was assured the professional politician commenced to put in his work by hobnobbing with the negro to seek revenge. Now the question is, are the white men of South Carolina willing to al low these unscrupulous men to lead them into the camp of the Radicals? There is no middle ground to take: we must be with the Democratic par ty, or we must array ourselves against it: if we stay at home on election day the Democratic cause, the cause of white supremacy, loses that much, and every vote lost can be counted for the Republican party. Any man that will undertake to gratify his spleen by voting against the Demo eratic ticket cannot be trusted by the party in the future. "He is a leprous man, he is unclean: his plague is in his head." Yes, in his heart as well. Every white man in South Carolina should be aDemocrat, and all of them that love their country are, bat there are some who are doing everything in their power to bring about a split, and if they succeed what will be the con sequence? Will that harmonize things? or will it make the breach wider? Should these men succeed in bringing about a split in some of the counties their success as a natural consequence can only be temporary, because the Radicals are only waiting for the wedge to be driven into the log, and as soon as it is done they will take hold themselves and strike their white tools a deadlier blow than these renegades struck the Dem oeratic party. The question of men is not in issue Dow;: that question was decided by the. Democratie convention, and every Democrat is pledged in honor to sup potthe nominees of the convention. Thsis our construction of the mean ing of membership in the Democratic jyarty. Fight as hard for 'your side .n~d men as you can, but when the highest tribunal of the party has ren dered its decision then take your de feat gracefully, remembering that we -are brethren, and that we have a common enemy in our midst, ready and anxious to plurnge the murderous knife into our political existence and civilization-ready to repeat the scenes that many of us witnessed be fore '76. Remember those trying -days, those days when it was an act nal necssnity for a man to carry a pistol in his pocket when on his way to church, those days when our wo men and children were afraid to go out upon the highways for fear of be ing insuntd. Remember them, and then lay your hand upon your breast and say if because your favorite was defeated you can and will cast a vote against the nominees of the Demo cratic party, or even remain away Or mthe polls and by your indiffer e nce encourage an unscrupulous set -owhite men who are willing to sell niila we hold dear for a few paltry Wo~ars and negro votes, in order that ~thay may remain in office. ere was aday in South Carolina -whenif any man had attempted to divde us by threatening us with the negro, that man would have met wittn -not only political death but social os tracism as well, and we hope that day is still here, and it should be the duty of every white man that loves his race and country to consider any proposi tion of a split an insult to his man hood, and he should promptly resent it, matters not from what source it emanates. AN IEXCUSABLE ERROR. The actions of the leaders of .the Antis have been one series of blun ders, and some seem determined to snstain their reputation to the bitter end. No more serious, uncalled for, ~ill advised, and defiant blunder has been made than that of appointing the commissioners of election with such undue haste, before the State conven tion met, without consultation with the duly aeeredited heads of the Democracy throughout the State, in deed with a seeming avoidance of such counsel-all done in a great hur ry just before the State convention met. And now Mr. Assistant Attor ney General Bachman assumes all blame for the blunder, because when the Governor sought his advice, legal advice and paid for by the State, Mr. Bacaman with pretended or inexcusa able ignorance told the Governor that sixty days must elapse, between the appointment of commiasoners and the election, when in fact he now admits that he was mistaken and that thirty days and not sixty days is the time specified by the statutes. All men are liable to err, but when such a patia error as the above is made itloks piscatory, especially when the Governor insists on taking advantage of it. But what matters it, except so far as the malignant animnus appears. It will have little effect on the general result, and only in a few counties where the independent-mongrel-radi cal spirit crops out will it possibly avail ought. Another great and final blunder is the bolting spirit exhibited by some dfated soreheads. The Demo cati party, true and unflinching, will remain practically solid and all bolters, who, in thei despicable greed for office for them selves or friends, form collusions witi the negroes, will be treated as inde pendents, worse than Radicals, wors< even than Mahones, undeserving o the confidence and respect of Demo crats, deserving of social ostracism. We have no words fully to expres. our contempt for that man with whit( skin who has sunk so low in politica relations as in any way to connive a a collusion with the Republican part3 as it exists in South Carolina. Wh< does it shows that heretofore onl: love of power and gain influencet bim, and now when he sees this slip ping from his grasp, he is willing t stab his old mother to the heart. We are truly thankful to believi that this article does not apply tt Clarendon Democrats. We of thi county know what Democracy an< what Radicalism means, what negro su premacy means, and we are confiden that there are not a half dozen whit< men in the county who for a momen would seriously contemplate any col lusion with the Radical party. The Democratic primary in thc fourth congressional district was h.eld yesterday. Duncan and Shell hay1 largely distanced their competitors and it is possible that Maj. Duncan i nominated. Judge A. C. Haskell's name wa mentioned, in the Republican StatE convention, in connection with thE governor's office, but Judge Haskell while he has been bitter against Till man, will not become a renegade Dem ocrat. Judge Kehaw is quite ill, and i: undergoing treatment at a New Yorl sanitarium. He has decided not t attempt to hold court in Lexington o: Richland, and probably he will no hold court in any county in that cir cuit this fall. The Sumter Democrats seem to b< hopelessly divided. Each side claimE to be the party and separate tickets wil probably be nominated by each faction Then the best thing will be to put those two tickets before the people and let none but white DemocratQ vote. That will solve the question. The Pickens &ntinel of the iSt inst. says: "We are authorized tc state that Judge James F. Izlar, of Orangeburg, will vote for Capt. B. R Tillman for governor." We do not see anything wonderful about this statement, as everybody knows that Judge Izlar is a Democrat and a pa triot, and regards his pledge to the Democratic party far above any man or set of men. There have been lively times in con gress of late. The Republicans were desirous of seating Langston, the col ored contestant from a Virginia dis trict, and the Democrats objected. The Republican majority is small, and the Democrats by keeping out of the house prevented for several days a quorum. An attempt was made one day by Speaker Reed to lock the members in, but the Democrats walk ed to the doors and kicked them open. This continued for a week or so. Yes terday, however, the Republicans got a quorum, and in a few minutes seated Langston. ~The Miller-Elliott contest was then called up, and in six minutes Miller was seated. So South Carolina again has a negro in congress A Hard Corner. The age of 30 is a hard corner for a woman to turn, and 35 is still harder. She feels that she is fast leaving her youth behind her. But there is no reason why a woman should be faded and passe at 35, or even al 45. The chief cause of the early fading o1 American women is found in the fact thai many of them suffer from some form of female weakness or disease which robs the face of its bloom, draws dark circles about the eyes, brings early wrinkles and sallow ness, and stamps the face and figure with signs of ill-health. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will cure all these troubles, will bring back the lost bloom, and remove the pains and ailments which make women grow old before their time.

Our friend, George Just Brown, editor oi the St. Matthews Herald, has got his whole heart in the subject matter below, and like a patriot and a Democrat thus expresser himself: The agony is over. The State Democratic convention has met, and done its work, and it behooves us all as true Democrats and patriots to acquiesce in the will of the ma jority of the party as declared by its high. est tribunal, no matter what may be oum personal likes or dislikes in the matter. To do otherwise would be undemocratic, and dangerous to the chief aim of every good Democrat-the continuance of white su pr-emacy in South Carolina. We know that there are a number of good patriotic men in our county and State, who find it almost impossible to reconcile them selves to the new order of things; and it is to these men we now appeal as patriots, feeling satisfied that they will, when the passions of this bitter campaign are over, in their sober second thought, see that the can gain nothing good by opposing the nominees of the party. It is bound to come-the reaction, we mean. Patriotism, although it sometimes smoulders amid the ruins of some crushing disappointment, as long as a spark reside! within the human breast, is bound to assert itself in the end, and the individual pos sessing it will be found capable of under. going any sacrifice, yea, even death itself for his country's good. And most, if no1 all of our fellow Democrats are patriotic, and will be found at the polls in Novembe: next, voting and working for the Democracl and white supremacy, and saying to the grand old Democracy by their actions, it the language of holy, "Though ye slay me yet will I trust in thee." These men have nothing to be ashamed of-except, perhaps, a few, who were so in. tolerant as to abuse all who did not coincide with them-and should content themselve.s with the knowledge that they have done al that mortal man could do, and "angel! could do nothing more." Then let us "lay aside every weight, and the sin" of intolerance "that so easily be. sets us" all, and let us run the ticket nomi nated by the State Democratic convention to the topmost point of our endeavors, foi the cause of white supremacy and a united Democracy, and in obedience to the greal bulwark of American freedom-the will oj the majority. Carolinians ! Patriots ! Freemen ! Son! of noble sires, whose life-blood bought for you the blessed heritage-freedom ! WVill you, can you falter in the fight, when oux foes, and the foes of good government are planning our defeat ? No ! Never ! The hour has come when South Carolina expect! every one of her true sons to do his duty, and she has never yet called in vain. Behold the solid phalanx marching upon our common enemy, and on the ides of No vember the shout of victory will be heard, and every true Democrat will be found in the ranks.

The Committee's Tiews on the Governor's Premnalure Appointments. . Fairness should certainly be accordcd to the action of so representative a body as a State convention. In the corresinlnance of the News and Courier the resohitions adopted and committee appointed to wait upon the Governor in re-ard to commis sioners of election has been styled "Insult ing the Governor," and the Greenville New.. qunalited it by ;ddiing "Indirectly iniuting." Now as the miiroducer of thos- rei tions, and in conseqnence the chairann of the committee. let me say that the pream ble and the wlrding of the resolutions, and an alditional resolution, diselaiming any intent even to reflect on the Governor or his appoiuet.s, should set at rest aty such inference. And I will further add that thee was no intent, directly or indi reetly, actuld or implied, to reflet upon the G-o(ernor or his appointees in any way whatever. The motive and ohj'et of the resolutions was to honor him as the Chief Magistiate of all the people by calling his attention to the fact that four-fifths, or a great majority, of the Democratic party were without fair representation on the, board of commissioners of election. That the cus tom which has become the unwritten law of the party had been set aside, and that in stead of appointing those recommended, or to be recommended by the county chairmen, others had been appointed almost solely from the small minority. Now "these citizens among the most in telligent and patriotic in the land" and "from the high character and intelligence of these appointees," admitting all this to be as stated, it assumes a innd of knowl edge truly wonderful. How came the Gov ernor in posession of such a vast amount of accurate information ? Isn't it proof con clusive that a list and recommendations have been furnished him and that he con sulted a small minority of the party and handed over to their control the dearest rights of the majority of his fellow-citizens, whose suffrages placed him in the exalted position of Chief Magistrate. The Governor strikes a heavy blow at the county chairmen for not making suggestions and furnishing inforimation in time, and it will doubtless awaken these officials to a sense of their duties. But is it a fact that these appointments were not made until the last day allowed by law ? That is a very important question, and Mr. M. C. Gallu chat's opinion, asa lawyer, controverts it. However that may be, the Governor has had the matter placed sqiuarely and courteously before him, and respectfully asked to give a majority of his fellow Democrats fair rep resentation on the board of commissioners, and he has positively refused and has so placed himself on record before the people. The convention, too, goes on record before the people as giving to the Governor an op portnnity of showing by his decision wheth er he was the Governor of all or a part only of the Democratic party and people, and its object has been attained. HF.Nay C. BCEN, Chairman Committee. Society Hill, Septem.ber 18, 1890. Notes of the interview between his Excel lency Governor J. P. Richardson and the committee appointed by the September con vention for that purpose: First: The Governor promised to give the chairman a reply within ten days. Second. He admitted that it is customary to appoint as commissioners those suggested by the Democratic chairmen, and that he had complied with that custon. But that in this election year he had not complied with it, as county chairmen had not made any suggestions, with the exception of Williams burg county, whose letter had been received after the appointments had been made. Third. If the commissioners now ap pointed should resign, he said, he would receive their resignations, but would Lot feel it his duty to appoint others recom mended by Democratic county chairmen, though as good Democrats, and as well qnal ified as those already appointed, he cldam ing the absolute right of determining all such questions according to his own judg ment. Fourth. He would not deny he had been furnished lists before he made said appoint ments, and when interrogated respecting the appointments made in Clarendon county he refused to give the name of the pirty or parties who may have furnished such list. He justified himself in departing from the custom of appointing commissioners of elec tion recommended by the county chairmen by reason of the State convention not allow iog the chairman of the State executive com mittee to name it-s temporary chairman. We, the undersigned, members of the conm mittee appointed by the Democratic State convention held in the city of Columbia on the 11th and 12th of September, 1890, do certify that these statements are true and substantially correct.

C.-Dear Sir: In reply to your inquiry as to Governor Richardson's correctness in saying that the commission ers of the approaching general election were appointed "on the last day allowed by law," I have to inform you that the Governor is mistaken. October 4 next is "the last day allowed by law," and the aippointmient of these commissioners before the assembly of the State convention is in my huamble judg ment unwise and altogether premature.

ATLANTA, GA., Jan. 2, 1890.-Six months ago, at the request of a friend who was in terested in the sale of King's Royal Germe tuer, I made a written statement of the ben efits I had received from the use of that medicine. In that statement I expressed the belief that it would cure me entirely of ea tarrh. Within the last two months I have received letters from every quarter of the nation calling on me for further informa tion in regard to my health. It has been impossible for me to write privately to each person who has made this request, and I am therefore under the necessity of making another public statement. I am free from catarrh. I believe that I could get a certificate to this effect from any competent physician. I have used no med leine within the last six months except King's Royal Germetuer. My health is bet ter than it has been in thirty years. I am in possession of information which war rants me in saying that the relief which I have exper'ienced from the use of the miedi cine is not more certain and ratdical than that which it has brought to hundreds' of persons in Georgia and other States. I feel it to be my duty :a say, also. that the effects of this remedy upon my wife have been even more signal and wonderful. She has been almost a lifelong invalid from nervous headache, neuralgia, and rhemtna tism. In a period of thirty year's she has scarcely had a day's exemption fronm pain. She has been using Germetuer about two months. A more complete transformation I have never witnessed. Every symptom of disease has disappeared, She appears to be twenty years younger, and is as happy and playful as a healthy child. We have per suaded many of our friends to take the medicine, and the testimony of all of them is that it is a great remedy. J. B. HAwTxonNE, Pastor First Baptist Church.

FILL INOUNCEMENTI The tine has come when the mercantile business like a great many other brancles has been reduced to a science, and in order for a Merchant to be able to compete with the present progress he inust make a close study ofeverything that pertains to his business, the wants and needs of the people; and have the cash capital to go into market and buv direct from the factories. He must cal culate the exact. cost of each piece o' material and every ingredient that is used in the mainanufacture of the goods that lie buys, and he must also see to it after making his purchases that his gi:oods are freighted as cheaply as possible. I have just returned iroi the largest markets in the United States, and an prepared to prove to my customers that I can save them money by buying fron ine. I realize the fact that the crops of our county are better than they have been for several years, and the people-will be in a financial condi tion this year to purchase what they want, therefore I bought a very large stock which is coming in every day. and in a few days I will haye a grand opening of Dry Goods, Notions. Carpets, Mattings, Clothing, Boots and Shoes, Hats. Gents' Furnishing Goods, Hardware, Groceries, and in fact everything that can be kept in a first-class general mercantile establishment. Being fully aware of the strong competition now existing, and the tremendous efforts that are being made by merchants of other towns to capture the trade that ought and should come to Manning. I made iy purchases right from first hands and gave my personal attention to getting reduced rates on freights in order that I could give my patrons the benefit of making their purchases at home as cheap or cheaper than they could make them elsewhere. Strong competition always proves beneficial to the purchasing public, and I make the assertion that there is no merchant in the State in a better positi~n to compete for the trade than I am, and if selling honest goods at bottom prices will accomplish my desires I am determined to force the trade of Clarendon to Manning. whuere it rigitlly bel5ongs. Come to Manning. visit my store, and see for yourselves the treilendous stock that is being opened, and if there is any doibt in your minds about. lmin: from me as cheap as elsewhere I will make all doubts disappear by P0ositive iwoi. Now is a glorious opportunity to buy summer goods. I will sell the balance of my suminer goods at greatly reduced prices in order to inak~e room for my fall stock: such a chance to buy goods for less than they can be replaced does not come often, and I would advise my friends to come at once and get the advanutag~e of the choicest bargrains.
