THE MANNING TIMES. Manninag, S. C. S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 12,1890. POLITICAL NOTES. Democracy has won, of course. No one not blinded by the passion of hate and prej udice and love of office ever really expected any other result. The attempt at fusion be tween Republicans and disaffected Demo crats, in which the Republicans were to be but tools for men who were attempting to play false by claiming still to be Democrats while catering to the Republicans, was too childlike for any real sensible man, white or colored, to be caught. History cannot fur nish an instance where elements so radically hostile ever amalgamated by such a process. The policy of the Haskellites was weak. They should have left the Democratic party boldly, and openly joined hands with the negroes: then they might have secured suc cess. But to attempt to stay in the Demo cratic party, claiming to be Democrats, and yet gain the Republican (negro) vote was more than even the negro could stomach. Haskell and Hampton and Harllee and Barnwell and Blanding and their follower had great odds against them. Their cause was not a just one. They while their star was in the ascendency had shouted that in. dependentism was worse than radicalism, and that an independent would steal Heav en's livery to worship Lucifer. They had said the naked truth, and it had permeated every true Carolinian. And when in theii weak and far fetched sophistry they at tempted to eat their own words, the tru( white citizehs of the State spurned sucl: sefish men, and will forever relegate then= to the rear. South Carolina will not sooE have any love for an independent, be he ax aristocrat of high position or a poor buckr without social influence. Hampton must retire. He has done val. iant service for his State, but when Haskel] and such men became leaders of an inde pendent movement he forgot his duty to hi State and failed to condemn them, aye worse, he even spoke words of commenda. tion for them. The State has fully repaid Hampton all she owes him, principal and interest, and now we willlet him go back tc private life. His last letter did the evil work. And even after saying he would vote the regular Democratic ticket he did not de it. He says he left his registration certifi. cate in Washington. South Carolina will not soon be Mahon ized. The dark days of '76 are yet too viv. id, and the example of Virginia too promi. nent before our eyes, for even such men as Haskell and his followers to hurl our State into political damnation. We must profit by the lesson of the last campaign, howev er. for independentism has in the estima. tion of some become respectable, and other means than the old slogan, "An independ. eat is worse than a radical," must now be used to kill opposition. Hampton has eaten his own words, has spoken kindly of the rich and influential independents, and now independentism if started among the rich and influential is a very respectable thing. The ministers a few of them have made the campaign ridiculous. They are not suffciently acquainted with the ways of this wicked world to dabble in politics. We know -of several of the poor innocents who favor ed the Haskell independent moyement. One of them went sofar even asto si the cal for the conference that nominated Has 'hell. Our advice is unasked and will be unappreciated, but we think it would be -best for such preacher-politicians hereafter to forsake either politics or the pulpit. A preacher has x right to his opinion and a duyto vote, but when he attempts to leadsa pltclmovement, there is a possible need tohim to go into his closet and have alittle ;self examination of his spiritual condition. ~But the matter is over, and we have not the slightest cause to grumble. Democracy hbaa been triumphant in the county, State, and nation. The people for once have got what they wanted, and we sincerely trust their choice has been a good one. Time will tell. We have certainly had afair elec tion-the fairest the State has had since re snstruction. Now let us all endeavor to work harmoniously together. Let there be no hard words and unkind Sempessonsabout how a man voted. Let us suppose every man (except the leaders) ~vtdconscientiously, and let us all get to gether again before the next campaign. Two yer hence a president is to be elected, and iDemocrat must be elected. Don't let there be any cause whatever for it to be Laid that South Carolina was in any way a party to a break in the solid South. Let us all come gantogether, and let the campaign of '90 bebut as the remembrance of a terrible THAT ELECTION AT PDE WOOD. *Mr. J. 11. Welch, of Fulton, has under >aken to represent Gen. Earle, in regard to nar criticism of Gen. Earle's advice to the who held registration certificates for & and who wanted to vote at Pine Rwood. He says Gen. Earle bases his opin. iaon an act of the legislature passed in 1885. Our lawyers based their opinion on a sct passed in 1889, just four years later. But then we don't propose discussing law on- our own hook, especially with Mr 7Welch. We have the opinion of two law fyr on this question, and they after having cirefully studied the matter advised us that oters registered for Falton could not vote at ,pinewood. Thatlets Mr. Welch out, un lees he can get the law from Mr. Earle or from some other lawyer. We therefore drop the subject on that point. We are not familiar with the geography -of jnwood. We are told it is very near theline. The postofficeanld most of the houses are in Calvary township and not in Fulton. The State election was held in Clalvary towniship and not in Fulton. So aya number of reliable gentlemen who Slive at and near Pinewood. Our remarks were based on what these gentlemen told us, and we believe them to be honorable gentlemen. There is not a more honest man in the county than Louis H. Des Camps. He and others say Pinewood is about four miles from Fulton and is princi r.Wech sshe isa member of the county Democratic executive committee, but was not consulted when the instructions were issued to the Democratic managers at Pinewood not to allow voters registered for Pulton to vote at Pinewood. We are aware -of this fact, and it was his fault that he was not present The meeting was held in pur. saanee of a call of the executive committee itself. Mr. Welch never attended but one ,meeting, and that was last August. But, by 'way of parenthesis, we beg leave to differ from Mr. Welch on his claim to present membership of the Democratic executive committee. We are informed that he sup ported the recent Independent ticket, and it so we are confidentthat from his sense of the fitness of things he will not attempt to claim any privileges from the county D)em. ocracy. And, another parenthesis, no man has for the past month been recognized as a member of the county Democratic execu .,..ive committee unless he pledged his allegi. ance to the regular Democratic party, and no man of whose fealty there was the slight. eat doubt attempted to be present at any of our meetings. It may not be amiss to state that the Pine. wood box was thrown out by the coiiimis sioners of election. We have got all in politics we could have asked for. 'The county, State, and nation has gone Democratic. Let the same con tinue two years hence with a Democratic president added, and the people will in. dedbe happy. There were four failures in New York city yesterday. The excitement or. Wall street was intense when the announcements were made. Millions are involved. High rates for money was the cause of the linan ial crash. Judge John W. Thurston, of Omaha, who was chairman of the last Republican con venion, says that James G. Blaine can have the Repunlican nomination for Presi HURRAH FOR CLARENDON! We have always found Clarendoi true to her colors and to her duty, and when sever al weeks before the clection we were asked by the State Demo-ratie Exeentive Commit tee what majority Clarendon would give, we replied: "The people of Clarenlon know how to appreciate a Demoeratic government, and while we have a white vote of only about 1500, yet we will give you a Demo cratic majority of 1000." We missed it by only 35 votes. The majority is 965. NEARLY 50,000 MAJORITY. We had hoped to give the official majority of the Democratic ticket, but cannot this week. It will be nearly 50,000. We suppose about 4,000 or 5,000 white men in the State voted for Haskell. Fully 30,000 white men did not vote at all. Of this number fully half were pronounced Democrats, and about 5,000 or 10,000 were wishy-wasby fellows, fence straddlers, who probably were afraid to take any decided stand. BUCKLEN'S ARNICA SALVE.

The World representative has it from high authority that the solicitors of the State have prepared a petition, which has been signed by all of them, requesting the reappointment of Captain W. K.

Pope has as yet made no appoint ment-Charleston World. Tetter and Boils. For years I was afflicted with an aggravated case of tetter. I tried lo tions, salves, soaps, and other out ward applications, without any bene ficial results. In addition to the tet ter, boils commenced breaking out all over my body, causing me so much pain that I had to quit work and go to bed. I then decided that I had started wrong, and instead of using external treatment I ought to go to the seat of the disease and purify my blood, as it was obviously bad blood that caused both the tetter and the boils. I took several blood purifiers without any good effects. About the time my case was declared incurable I commenced taking S. S. S. In a few weeks the tetter was cured, and one by one the boils disappeared, until I was entirely and permanently cured. This was three years ago, and since then I have been free from any skin eruptions. My skin is now, and has been for three years, as smooth as any one's. S. S. S. not only cured me of the tetter and boils, but alsc restored my appetite and general health, caus ing me to increase in weight and im prove in every way. M. S. PoLLocx, New London, 0. May 6, 1890.
