THE MANNING TIMES MamiixigL3M, s. C. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, 1894. A Parting Word. The field of journalism has beer to me most pleasing and inviting any it is with the greatest reluctant that I leave it. My affections hav been so interwoven in The Manninh Times that in retiring as its edito and proprietor I feel as if humaj chords of love are broken. I hav worked hard to make the paper success-a- model of a countr weekly. Financially I have hai nothing to complain of, and as to it success otherwise, my subscribers ar the best judges. I have alway aimed to publish the news as I foun, it, without regard to fear or favor nor have I ever wilfully published a: item that I believed was untrue c tended to injure society, neither hay I ever allowed malice to dictate word in my columns. I-have sold the paper to Mr. Lour Appelt, who for four years has bee connected with the paper. Much < its success has been.due to his'effort Our relations have been exceeding] pleasant. As an employee, I hav always found him faithful and trus1 worthy, regarding my interests wit jealous care, and as a friend an counsellor I have found him true an valuable. He is a strong writer, an I feel sure will give the people < Clarendon an excellent paper. I as for him a continuance and an is crease of the patronage so liberall extended to me. In this connection I desire to than: the people of Clarendon for thei - many kindnesses shown me. I coul not have asked for more favors an+ honors than they have so generousl: lavished upon me. I love the peopl of Clarendon, and in the garden spo of memory they shall ever be th brightest and most beautiful flowerf May the choicest blessings of Go< be showered upon this noble people and may His infinite love and protec tion rest and abide with them fox ever. S. A. NETTLES. Salutatory. In assuming the editorial contro and proprietorship of The Manninj Times I do so realizing its full impor tance and grave responsibilities, an< only hope that I will be able to giv, -he people who have been so libera in their patronage no reason to fee that the change has lessened the pa - per's usefulness to the community. For some time past Mr. S. A. Nettle has been contemplating his retiremen from newspaper work, but wheneve: he mentioned the matter to me I tries to persuade him from it, as I knevi possibly more than'any one else, hos hard he labored to make The Man ning Times a power for good. Hi ambition was to give- his readers paper that would not only give then the news, but at the same time hav' the effect of educating both mentall: and morally, the masses. In this ef fort, success has crowned his exer tions to that extent that his retirinj from journalistic labor will be a loss However after mature deliberation ha determined to retire, and as.! was al Sready at the tripod assisting him ii his labors, I accepted his journalisti, mantle, and although having beel under Mr. Nettles's tutorship for thi past four years and during that timi a large portion of the work was left t -me. I feel that if I can do my duty a faithfully and conscientiously as wa done by my preceptor I will hav done well. ~ During the entire four yars of m: labors with Mr. Nettles not a rippl came-in the way io mar our intimat busin'.zaad social relations.- Hi inteleente with me was so pleasan -7nd kind that to say he is a frieni would not be expressing my mneaning Brother is nearer the relations tha exists between us and .in acceptin; the mantle he so worthily&wore I d, so with the sincere hope that a gra cious providence will ever be,'wit: him, and that his every undertakin will be crowned with success, peace and plenty. The Manning Times will continues people's paper. Its columns will .b used to encourage the building up c our town and county, and every effor will bo made to give its readers reli able news from every section, and i: this connection I will say, 'correspor dents from every section of the count are solicited, and their efforts to fum nish me the events occurriiog in thei respective communities will be hearti ly appreciated. !Politically the Mar ning'Timnes will be unchanged. have the Reform movement at hear and I shall do all in my powar t further the cause, and to do this will direct my pen in such a manne as to present the truth without assun1 ing to myself the belief that.,Ikno' it all'' an'thers . x'o right t L -i 1- endeavor to .b1 eous to my friends that diffe fromne on faction'al politics, and wi sasi them the privileg'e of present ingibeir views through the column or The Times. All communication couched in resp~ectful language of non-personal character, be they for o against the Reform movement, wii receive my careful attention. The Manning Times will not be th organ or any man or set ot men. 1 will advocate such measures as I be lieve to be for the best interests .c the masses, and will fight with all m might such measures as I deem detri mental to the welfare of the masses In county polities this ~paper will nc be used for the elevation or crushin; of any particular candidates. It wi] be open to all until the primary, an. then whoever is madfe the nominee be he friend or foe, Reformer or Con servative, the columns of the pape will be used to eonilrm the primary' decision. The Times stands squarely on th National and State Democratic plat .forms and will support no man tha does not. The political conditions ii South Carolina are such as to deman( the supremacy of white man' rule, and to this end it will be founi battling to the last ditch. We realiz the fact of differences existing be tween the whie men in this State these differences can be adjusted an< must be adjusted within the ranks o Otsc regular oranized Democracy and I will do all that I can towards ' bringing about a more friendly condi- t tion of things. I propose to speak I out plainly on all measures that I l discuss, at the same time hold myself f open to conviction to those differing I from my views, and when convinced 1 of being wrong in any position I may take. I will have the manliness 1 to acknowledge my error. I shall < take a pride in making the paper an I indispensable companion for every I ~ household and to do so I realize that 1 I must not take a step backward. My r predecessor by his indomitable energy " made The Manning Times a first- 1 class county newspaper, second to I none in the State, and in order for me to make it hold its high reputation I will have to work hard, and to im s prove it my efforts will have to be e doubled. I have undertaken this I S work after the most careful reflection, 3 and 1 feel that to succeed my mind and heart must be enlisted. I kncw I a that to successfully conduct a news r paper is no holiday occasion and that e it will take hard labor, perservance a and determination. These qualities I shall endeavor to cultivate, and if I s succeed, I will feel that I have per a formed a duty, the good effects of which will live after me and be more lasting than a monument of stone. Never before in my life have I felt e so dependent as now. Friends, in this undertaking I need your en couragement. I want you to help me make The Manning Times not only a profit to me, but such a paper as you a will proudly say "This is my paper." Hoping to be able to retain the paper's k present patronage and soliciting an increased patronage. I am very respectfully, Louis APPELT. Comptroller General Ellerbe is be r ing pushed forward as a candidate for governor to succeed Governor Till- 1 I man. His friends think he has the V requisite qualities to undertake an ag e gressive campaign. t] e President Cleveland is having a f hard time with his appointees. Sev I eral of them have been rejected by t the Senate. The two darkies ap- t - pointed by him to represent this gov - ernment in a foreign country were refused confirmation by that body, and now his appointee, Mr. Horn blower, to the Supreme bench has met the same fate. 1 We would be glad if our friends will speak out on the subject of a conven tion to suggest a State ticket. The sentiment of the people should be known. Do the Reformers of Claren- t don want such a convention? And if -they do, ought that convention be held in March, or after the aspirants have been heard on the stump? We I will gladly publish the views of our friends on this matter. Let us hear from you. - Mayor Chaffee, of Aiken, replied to the State board of-.control in reference to enforcing the dispensary'law in an insolent manner, and as a result thet city of Aiken toses its- portion of the< profits accruing from the dis pensary there. Some people think Mayor Chaffee did a very smart Sthing, but we see* nothing smart or< gentlemanly in his conduct. The board addressed to him a courteous letter, asking the mayor if he would1 ins-truct his police to enforce the law, The mayor could at least have been as courteous in refusing. Whenever a man is-elected to office he should lay aside his personal feel Sings, and carry out his sworn duty, 3and every officer in this State from sthe governor to the village policeman must before entering upon the dis charge of their duties .take an oath that they will support honest Sly and faithfully the laws of'thei United States and of the .State,. and when such officer takes this oath he is t bound by it whether he likes the laws1 e r not. There is but two things for him to do, resign or faithfully and Shonestly do his duty.- If a Sheriff refused to -make an arrest because< the party to be arrested was a friend, the charges wvould come thick and-.fast that such a sherif . was~ unfit for the position, and at the next election the people would apply the royal bumper. The sheriffs swear to ,faithfully and honestly carry out the Slaw, and mayors of cities take the same oath. Now is a mayor that re t fuses to faithfully enforce the dispen sarylaw afit officer? Does he not violate a solemn oath? Then is he to be trusted? -The Conservative press are trying r hard to create the impression that . their faclion will sit on the fence - this year and watch the Reform pro-1 [ cession march by. They seem to t think that the Reformers will- get to y 'scrambling among themselves for I I the loaves eud fishes and the whole r ausiness will break up in a general .'row, and when that time comes they y wtll quietly come down from their a perches and walk off with the bone of e contention. It is high time our Con r servative friends were changing their j tactics asthey have failed in all their -previous manipulations. Now if they s carry out their present pretensions no 3 doubt they wirl enjoy the pleasure.1 i but the Reform faction will not takea r everything they see coming from the I Conservative press as being in earnest,i and will go on with their work of or s ganization all the same. They k-now < t it was a hpard struggle to gain the ad Svantage they have, and are not now f going to allow themselves to become y lukewarm because the opposition .pro -tend they will make no fight. .The Reform movement was inaugu-t t rated to stay, and not organized to sim- I Sply elect certain men.to office. Ambi tious men may quarrel among them selves for place, but the people will adjust the differences and it it is note . pleasing to the men that are quarrel r mng the people will stand them aside a and the Reform movement will go on. Before the people get ready to act 3 men may press their claims for recog nition as much as they please, but twhen the proper time comes the peo ple will make their own selections and ~ I the command forward march will be I given. Those that do not want to I I obey the command can remain be- e Shind, but the true and loyal will C i'nrch on to a triur -t"* ""* , with the Reform bann I Reform movemtent Smovement and not th - ,.' ambitious nnlitinin n Tariff reform is one of the planks in he national Democratic platform; )ut we see a number of Democrats op )osed to the present bill before Con tress, As a matter of fact the Wilsct All does not come up to our expecta ions and it has the appearance of f 'makeshift" for tariff reform. How ver the Wilson bill is labelled Demo ratic, and no doubt it will pass the ower house, but in the Senate it wil iardly do so. It really looks as i: Jongress is loaded down with "drift Food," and it will take another shak ng up to get men there to carry ou ;he pledges of the party. The news ?apers in this State opposed to the Reform administration refer to the last session of our State lawmaker, Ls the "June Bug" legislature. Hov much more appropriate would it be or them to apply the name to the >resent Congress. If the last sessior >f our State legislature was made ul )f June Bugs, our national legislature must be made up of what the little >oys call tumble bugs. Peculiar Fire at Packsville. The incenldiary is putting in hi: Fork again at Packsville. This time n attempt was made to burn the pos ffice at that hustling little town. Mr. 3. MI. Bradham received hi: >ommission for the post mastership a that place last Friday, and he callet upon Henry Tindal, the ipcumbent to take charge. Tindal was not quite ready to turn the affairs of the govern nent over and told Mr. Bradham tha e would get his matters in shape anc turn the office over Monday. Last Sunday night about midnigh i fire was discovered in the office anc hose that got there first, -we are in Cormed, say they saw the ashes o burning paper on the floor. Thy house was not burned, but strange t< Say the stamps, cards, postal notes money orders and the papers of the )ffice were either consumed in the lames or stolen. The theory advanc d for the fire is that same one brok nto the office, stole all the valuabl natter amounting to al-out six bun ired dollars, and then put a lot o Japers on the floor, set fire to hid .he tracks, and left. There is ni loubt but what the government wil lave an investigation and if possibly erret out t h; thief and fire-bug. The text morning Tindal turned over ti tr. Bradham the mail keys and bags ad Mr. Bradham assumed the duties f post master without any blanks tamps or other matter necessary fn be business. He reportcd the condi. ion of affairs to the department, an nade a requisition for the necessar' natter.

This kind of legislation cannot be s not right.
