THEIEANNIN TIMES. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10, 1894. -Uustly Attacked by Opposi tion Newspapers. The papers in this State having seenft to unkindly charge that I had associated with me a negro as editor of The Sumter Herald, I desire to make the following explanation: During December the hand of af fietion was most grievously laid upon me,-and only such things received my attention as were imperatively urgent. The conduct and management - of my two papers was left entirely in other hands. Mr. A. W. Knight, my local editor and business manager in Sum ter (and to whom I have sold The Herald), mentioned to meduring that time that he thoughtit would be a good idea to get Rev. J. A. Brown, a colored preacher, to write a column of news especially for the colored peo ple. I approyed of the plan and told nim to use- his judgment. The Her. ald has a considerable number of col ored subscribers, and such news is really of [interest to all subscribers. The idea was not new, for The Man. ning Times has in years past fre quently published a similar column, and would have continued it but for the fact that we found it difficult tc get a- good correspondent. This col umn was never edited by the negro: be simply furnished the news the same as any other cor respondent, and it was regular ly -edited in the office, omit ting anything that would be object ionable. Mr. Knight made the mis take of putting "Edited by J. A. B." when he should of course have put -simply "By J. A. B." Yet any one who knows me, or is at all familiar with my history, would not for a mo ment believe any such charge as that I was thus associated with a negro. This explanation is, therefore, written for bnly those iho are not acquainted with me. . have been in the newspaper busi ness eleven years and feel proud of my record. Sometimes in the line ot duty I have had occasion to con demn the actions of certain ones, and it is for this I have the illwill of the three papers that have attacked me, but my every word and act has been a-ut the dictate of what I conceived to -be right and honest, and in retiring from the journalistic field, as I have done, having sold both my papers, I do so with not a pang of eonscience of having ever "set down aught in malice." Very respectfully, S. A. NmLEs. Manning, S. C., January 8, 1894. The present admistration is driving capitil out of the State is the cry of - ealamity howlers that allow blind -prejudice to -rule them, but the re ports show that South Carolina cot. ton mills are runniig on full time and declaring hand~ome dividends all the same. The Newberry mills have just declared a semi-annual dividend of 4 per cent., and thatcorporation ex pects to increase its capital stack from U !000thiAs- year. This too under the farmers movement ad ministration. The manufacturini business in this State shows up well notwithstanding the great financial depression.- In- New England the de pression locked the doors of the fac tories, and thousands of laboring peo pie are out .of employment and cry ing for bread. There is no such fear ful condition here. Allof our mills are in full blast. A republican rules in man ufacturing Massachusetts where work is stopped, but ldSouth Carolina, Till man, a Jacksonian Democrat, rules. and work goes on. In. New York capitalists are becoming alarmed at the condition there. The unemiploy edf are becoming desperate and an out break ot starving humanity would not be surprising.. The past year has been the hardest this State has ever experienced since the war, yet we hear of no such alarming conditions. The 4nly hunger existing 'in this State comes from those that long to feed at the publie crib, and because the peo ple who owrn the crib wont give them fulsway to gratify their greed, they iMwl,.and growl, and swear, that the B&ate has gone to the bowwows. Peo pie, read the newspapers and see for yourpelves the difference between 'South,Carolina's condition, hard asit is, and that of other Statesyrid then say if you would like ahasnge. <In last Mo 4y's News'and Courier aneditorial headed "The Three Absentees," naming Messrs.

WAsHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Mr. Tal. bert says he was absent during the past week on an indefinite leave of absence granted by the House and he was not aware that all leaves had been revoked. He has never absented himself from the House or refused to vote when present to break a quorum, and he desires that the Democratic party shall redeem all of its pledges. He states further that he did not miss a roll-call during the ex tra session, and has been regular in attendance during the present session, and responded on every roll-call up to the day before the holiday recess, when he obtained an indefinite leave of absence. He returned to Washing ton as soon as his condition would permit, and was en route to the Capi tol when he received notification from the deputy sergeant-at-arms. Mr. MeLaurin excuses his absence last week by stating that in order to be present at roll-call on Wednesday morning it would have been necessary for him to leave him home on Monday. One of his children was sick with grip, and he did not expect that he would be needed to make a quorum. He al so had an engagement to speak in Florence on Saturday. He received the notice revoking leave of absence on Thursday night. As he had his entire family with him it was, of course, impossible to pack in one night. So he left his wire to pack up, ran down to Florence Friday morn ing, made the speech on that day, and had his horse and buggy to meet him at Society Hill that night. He had to drive twelve miles across the Pee-Dee Swamp in a drizzle of rain and as d&rk as Egypt, and over the worst road .in America. He reaehed home at 12 o'clock at night, and got up at 4.30 o'clock and started with his family He stopped over night at Greensboro on account- of the children, and the baby had croup again and he spent mosrof the night doctoring her. He landed here safe and sound and got into his seat before a deputy knew he was in the city. . Mr. McLaurin left home on August 4, and never missed agroll-eall pending the silver fight, and other men spent most of the time at home. He says it looks a little curious to say last spring, when-the postoffice fight was on, that we were not Democrats and now to hustle around so, to take us into the fold. Dr. Strait says he hurried back to Washington as soon as he learned that All leaves of absence had been revoked. All of the Democratic members of the delegation announce their intention to support the bill and amendments proposed by the committee on ways and means. Representative Shell, McLaurin, Strait and Talbert have returned to Washington. They were in the House and helped to make a quorum of Democratic votes in favor of con sidering the tariff bill in accordance with the *revised order of the com mittee on rules, which pi-ovides that the final vote shall be taken on the. 29th, instead of the 25th, as original ly proposed. Capt. Shell was not required to be present, but as soon as he learned that he was needed in Washnigton he came right on. He may have to return home to-morrow, owing to.sickness in his family. IT SHOULD BE IN EVERY HOUSE. J. B. Wilson, 371 Clay St., Sharpsburg, Pa., says he will not be without Dr. King's New Discovery for Consuniption, Coughs. and Colds,. that it cured his wife who was threatened with Pneumonia after an attack of "LaGrippe," when various other rene dies and several physicians had done her no good.

A suggestion comes from the Laur ens county alliance that the'Reform ers hold a State convention in July to name a State ticket to make the fight in the August primary. The oppon ents of the alliance and the Re form movement of course object. They should appliy sc-th.e.lT.. 8. Court for a-injuction and there test the rigita t'he people to assemble for .the pur pose of determing who shall* -he their standard bearers. It was a terrible crime for -the Reformers to hold a [arcb convention in. 1890, nevertheless the conservatives in 1892 Imitated the example set by the Reformers. Now if the Reformers hold a convention this coming July, the conservatiives can imitate them again by holding one of their own in 1896. These things can be done without .anybody chaffing in in the neck a'ount it. If conventions are held in Jsly or March and good men are selected as standard bearers, to meet those of different views on the stump, there can be no harm. The primaryin August will settle the mat ter. It the ticket selected In July or. March is made up~ of- material to suit the suipporters of white man'ssilprem acy the August primary will endorse it, and they will become our standard bearers for the general election, But If these conventions fail to place the standard in proper hands, the people will go into the August primary and repudiate them.

A white man has been whipped by a mob of twenty negroes inl Sparlan burg county for the offence of be-ing a Slate constable appointe'd to assist in executing.what the Legislature a.nd somre of the courts of State have dle clared to be law. "While going home," says tihe dis pat en, "he was attacked by a crowd of negroes and severely whipped to excess along the railroad, a distance . of several squares. Piecesq of rubber hose were used to do the whipping with. - Davis was made to take off his, hat and address these negroes as gen tlemen iand also to swear that he would quit Tiliman's service and go home." And some of the extreme anti-Till man organs are so lost to all sense of the public good and public safety as apparently to -applaud this deed. There is where thbey go. beyond Gov. Tillman in his worst fo.Lly ! There is where by comparison the odious dis pensary law becomes a gospel- of truth and light ! A law officer whipped in a public place by a negro mob for lerformmin hisduty, white men stood by aiding and abetting the deed by their pres ence? The anti-Tillmnan party will not recover from the eltect of that one blow for many a long day. No, men and brethren f t his is not child's play. It is a race issue with all the rights of law and justice on the side of the white men as against the negro desperadoes and their -white sympathizes. Now the natural ten dency or the dispensary law to be tun popultar has been more that offset by the stirring up a prejudice beside which it sinks into insignificance (hrleston Sn.

For years we have been making a specialty of this Department, and we can safely say without exaggeration that we have never beeRi better prepared than this season. Our stock comprises over 100 dozen Sample Hats of the latest shapes and styles, which we offer at ONE-HALF THE REGULAR PRICE. This statement would seem incredulons, but we are prepared to prove it by an examination of our Stock. There are many citizens of Clarendon County who are now wearing Hats bought from us two and possibly' thre3 years ago AT ONE DOLLAR EACE who will beat us out in the assertion that in some grades they are less than one-half what they have been paying for the same class of goods. Our friends seem to appreciate our efforts in this line, for several days before our Stock was received we were having inquiries, "Have your Hats come in?" and when they did come, before we had an opportunity of assorting and mark ing them, several dozen were picked out. We would therefore advise our friends who wish a CHOICE FUR HAT' AT ONE UOLLAR, either soft or stiff, in any shape, to call early and make their selections, as they are going very rapidly. In our Clothing Department We are better prepared than usual to give you good value for the money you wish to invest, from a Boy's Suit at 65 cents to a Man's Suit at $25.00. We feel that we can supply your wants. In our -SHOE DEPARTMENT You will find HONEST VALUE and a complete stock from which to select. We cannot pass over this Department without calling special atten tion to our celebrated brand of We have had the exclusive sale of these goods for five years, and we will pay a Reward. of Fifty Dollars to any lady in Clarendon County who has ever bought these goods from us, and -upon failure of the same to give satisfaction that we did not 'EteLg~ncd 'Eer IVEOney, give a new pair of Shoes, or make due allowance for the time they- were worn. This we are authorized Jo do by the manufacturers. In our WRY GOODS DEPARTEN We offer a complete line of Staple and Fancy Dry Goods ind Dress Goods, with trimmings to match. We'might enter into an enumeration of prices here that would astonish you, but as thec STOCK IS SO LARGE and advertising so expensive, wve merely ask y'a to call and be coi vinced. In our NOTION DEPARTMENT We have a lot of slightly soiled Kid Gloves at 25c. per pair. This includes some of the celebrated CJentemeri brands. Our celebrated Glove Kid in all shades, every pair warranted, has no superior. FEATHERBONE CORSETS. Telady who .desires solid comfort ought to supply herself with a pair of the above brand as soon as possible. They are made strictly of Featherbone and sold exclusively by us. We have elaborated considerably upon your exterior wants, but have said nothing about TH-E INNE]R 'MAN. No matter how poor the crop or how low the price, WE MUST EA T, and we were no less particular in providing for you in this respect than in. our various other Departments. F'lour is ChIea1p, AiD WE BOUGHT SOO 'E3arrels, so if you want Rock Bottom Prices, see us before buying. We cannot close this appeal to our friends without something to say about The Cottori Business. -Our reputation is pretty well established in the market, but we were never better prepared to handle the fleecy staple than we are this season. Always have the satisfaction of knowing that O'Donnell saw your sample, foi- then you can feel assured if he did not buy, some one else paid all or more than it was worth. Respectfully, ODONNELL &. COMPANY, S.- -ez, S. C. -The *" CA L GOR AP HI." It is -now thirteen years since the Caligraph Typewriter was first put upon the market and in all that time has responded faithfully to what is required of a iirst-class writing machine. - The Caligraph is recognized everywhere as the most simple and most durable typewriter. It is easily learned, does beau tiful work, and WILL LAST A DECADE, if properly cared for. In speed contests it has repeatedly taken the first place and in telegraphic work has never' been excelled. For mamifolding purposes it has bo superior. With interchangeable parts the Cahigraph is well nigh indestructible. The experience of business men, ministers, te legraphers, short-hand schools, and government departments all go to prove that the Caligraph is without a peer. -SOLDON EASY TERMS. C.
