wrEKNmnGr TI.ES LOUIS APPELT, Editor. Wednesday, July 4, 1894. Every Reform club in the county should be well represented in Man ning next Tuesday. The Reform clubs are to have a meeting on August 4th to elect dele gates to a County Reform Convention. At this meeting a vote is to be taken to ascertain who the choice of the members of the Reform faction is for Governor. It is therefore very im portant that every member of a club should be out at the meeting. When the clubs instruct their delegates, they should also take a vote to ascer tain the club's second choice, in case their first choice can not win. If Tindal is the first choice of Clarendon county the delegates elected from the County Convention will stand by Tindal in the State Convention as long as he remains in the race. But should he find himself unable to cap ture the prize and withdraw from the race, the delegates should be instruct ed as to the county's second choice. This is what we call getting the sen timents of the people. Come to Manning next Tuesday and you will hear what the candidates for high position have to say. Let everybody be present and show that Clarendon is not asleep. In urging the people to turn out next Tuesday we do not mean any particular fac tion, but we want all the factions to hear-the issues of the day discussed. Gov. Tillman, Senator Butler, Ellerbe v Tin a 6%the er can didates for 'gh position will be here. Let the day be a holiday occasion, and let us give every candidate a respectful and attentive hearing, and then after hearing these gentlemen we can select the ones we want to support. Clarendon has the reputa tion of having orderly meetings, and we hope the meeting next week will sustain her past record. Owing to the meeting of the Re form State Executive Committee the editor of the Times will not have the pleasure of attending the meeting, .2bmtehe will arrange to be represented sa that we can supply our readers with the proceedings the next day. Ladies, your presence at this meet ing is much desired,, and you need have no fear that anything will occur to mar your pleasure if you attend. So come out. -Hon. James B. Tindal, by his dig nified manner of conducting his can vass, is making rapid strides towards the gubernatorial chair. Mr. Tindal is diseussing issues while some of the other candidates are trying to build khemselves up by dragging the others down. The people do not care a fig who itis that was at the birth of the Reform Movement; whaitP~ he.wart to kngs,-hristhe bes man to carry ontihe Reforms that the Movement was inaugurated for. They want to know what ails the patient and the best and quickest way to procure re lief. The man who shows the people that he realizes their needs and offers a sensible plan to secure those needs, is the man the people will be Chestnutty jokes may tickle and create laughter for the time, but good sound, sensible doctrine, such as James B. Ti'ndal is preaching, goes home with the people, and, will be with them when they go to the ballot box. If aspeaker tries to edify his au dience next Tuesday with a joke, ask him if he got it from the Reform platform, if he did not, then ask him to talk about that platform, and say how he expects to make the platform a' reality. Jokes can be gotten from an almanac free. Good, sound polit ical doctrine is what the people leave their homes and go to the expense to hear. ~Just about now every topic of con versationi is politics. It is, who is a candidate for this position and who for that, who will support this or that candidate for Governor, who will support Butler or Tillman for the Senate. This but natural, and while it is right that we should think about and in a friendly way discuss these things we should not lose sight of the fact that our home affairs should not be lost sight of. The people of the county should support with their trade the county seat, and encourage the upbuilding of the county gener ally. Manning has several times been laid in ashes, and our merchants have, with a remarkable enterprise, built up the waste places so that now we have as fine business houses as any town in the State. Our mer chants are thorough going business' men, as is attested by the number of traveling salesmen daily coming here trying to sell goods. It shows that the merchants here have the conifi dence of those abroad. It shows further that the support of our mer chants must come from the people of the vicinity, and if the people of the vicinity can maintain such merchants' then there is hope that Manning will bcome a great town commercially. vt is the duty of our merchants to try to draw the trade here, and we believe they are doing so, and it is to the interest of every man in the cunty who owns a piece of land or hopes to own property to help build -p the county seat. X.strong county seat means a prosperous county, and a prosperous county soon makes it self known and becomes a drawing card for people to move into it for the purpose of securing homes. Then let us all enjoy the privilege of having different ideas about poli ties, and when it comes to the build ing up of the town and county let us all pull together. When you want to buy anything er Maning first. Tindal, from what we can gather ,o this time, seems to be the most eceptable candidate with this sec ion.-Horry Herald. Every white voter in the county that feels an interest in public affairs should not fail to be in Manning to hear the distinguished speakers next Tuesday. Teachers that desire to attend the National Educational Association that will be held at Asbury Park, N. J., from the 6th to the 13th insts., can secure exceedingly low rates by com municating with Prof. D. B. John son, Columbia, S. C. KEEP OR61ANIZED. Chairman Sligh, of the State Re form Executive Committee, has issued orders for the members of the com mittee to meet in Columbia on the 10th iast. The object of the call is not stated and just what is to be done we are at a loss to know. There is a disposition in certain quarters to have the committee rescind its action with reference to holding a preliminary primary in the Reform clubs on Aug. 4th. It will be remembered that sometime back the Reform faction in the various counties met in their respective clubs, and after discussino the political situation, decided it would be best to have a conference of Reformers. That said conference was to take place in Columbia, and tc be .composed of one representative from each county, who was to be elected by a county convention made up of delegates elected by the clubs The representatives so elected and fresh from the peopi were empower ed to call a convention of Reformeri if they thought best. The conference met in Columbia or the 4th of April, and every county was represented. We never befori saw as deliberative a body where-dis cussion was as free a 'enf ever3 man seem e the interest o: gwAL8.&1 heart, and the interest of candidates did not creep into, thi conference whate.ver. Various plan. looking towards a solution of th Reform problem were offered ani thoroughly discussed, and after long and harmonious session the com mittee decided it best to have a pri mary in the Reform clubs and t< have a Reform State convention oz the 14th of August to choose fron the number of candidates now offer ing themselves to the people. Ow understanding is that the conventioi will only choose a Governor ani Lieutenant Governor. That the can didates seeking support from th4 Reform ranks will submit their claimi to the said convention and abid4 by its decision. Now comei some of the candidates wh< 'want the whole thing changed ani base their requests upon the expects tion of the Conservative faction no putting forth any candidates. L other words these candidates are now going over the State, and they car see what is their individual prospects are among the Reformers. The can didates not meeting with the ancour agement from the Reformers the' would like, want to let down the bar and admit the Conservative factio, to come in to help add strengh t< their candidacy. We are unalterabl: opposed to any such tactics, and we imir that it is right and proper foi the Reform faction which is a largi majority of the Democratic party, tc select the standard bearers for th< party without any interference or as sistance from a faction which il largely in the minority and which it opposed to the., principles advocatei by the majority. If the bars were to be let down, the result would be that the weakest can didate in the Reform ranks would b< selected as the standard bearer, and virtually be the choice of the opposi tion. If the candidates now out, arn Reformers from principle, they shouk be willing to take their chances witi their own faction, and if they do no wish to do so, there is nothing to pre vent them from not sending a pledg< to the Reform convention to abid< the result. Those not having pledge before the convention will not be considered candidates for the Re form faction's endorsement, and the' can ,if they choose, run in the gen eral primary in opposition to thi candidate endorsed by the conven tion. We have placed in nominatioi Honorable James E. Tindal, and we are proud of the man ner in which he is conducting his canvass before the people. Hil canvass is on a high and Statesman like plane. He is before the peopl4 on his merit, and discusses issues in stead of indulging in 'personal abuse He is a Reformer that means to carr' out the reforms desired by the peo ple, and we believe when the mem bers of the faction go to their respect ive clubs on August 4th they wil instruct their delegates to vote fo: James E. Tindal as the choice of th Reform faction for Governor; bu should a majority of the Reformer throughout the State prefer Evans Ellerbe, or Pope, who are also gooi and true men, it will be our pleasuri to support in the primary thb choice of the majority. Thiu is a very important election year, ant it is the duty of the majority to giv4 the whole people a good strong mar to fill the gubernatorial chair. W4 owe it to ourselves for the perpetna. tion of the Reform Movement tc make no mistakes, but at the same time we must not lose sight of the fact that we have another importani position to fill-that of selecting a man to represent us'in the United States Senate, who knows and feels our needs, and will work to give us the re lief th at can only come from the 'National government. It is well, therefore, to keep our organization in tact and not be lulled into a spirit ol indifference, because there does not appear to be any opposition from the opposing faction. Gen. Butler is be ing allowed by his faction to manage his compaign "in his own way," and his way appears to be, to rent the Reform faction into pieces. If he can succeed in this, thirty-six hours would put the Conservative faction in solid phalanx to march on and cap ture the Reform fortresses. No, we cannot afford to divide, and from the indications, we must lay aside petty preferences to hold on to what we have gained. It does not need a Solomon to see through the pretended STILL THEY COME! In the language of McCafferty, the Texas horse drover, we exclaim, "Open the gate !" and let those that will, come into the Reform yard. Recently John Sam Verner came over to us with his sleeves rolled up to his neck, and said: "Boys, I am 1 with you; put me to work," and now comes another-one whose talent for the past four years has been thrown away working for the opponents of the Reform Movement. This late acquisition is no other than Fred Wannimaker, of the Orangeburg Enterprise. From the beginning of the Reform Movement Wannamaker could not find words mean enough to say about Ben Tillman, and after the Columbia State started Wannamaker would not only try to imitate Gonzales' style of abusing Tillman and the Reform cause, but he actually tried to out do the champion enemy to our cause. It is, therefore, surprising that one who has said so many mean and bit ter things about us, should at this stage of the political proceedings re nounce his political faith and offer his services to us. It may be wrong to judge the mo tives prompting these sudden changes nevertheless it is a worse wrong to have an opinion about such matters and not express it. We do not be lieve the motives prompting these sudden conversions are altogether what they pretend to be, and the fact of our not placing too much confi dence in the professions of men who were so terribly bitter against us in the past; is sufficient to warn our brethren to watch such, keep a sharp look out for them, and see that they have no chance to use a dagger that may be hidden up their sleeves. It is well to remember that the opposition are not fools, and that they %re in dead earn est in trying to again- secure control of the government; that they have resorted to various means to accom plish their desires and failed in each. What guarantee have the Reformers of the sincerity of these converts? It does appear to us a change like the one Fred Wannamaker purports to make is rather extreme, and requires close watching. The people are about as well prepared to believe Wannamaker an earnest supporter of the Reform cause, as they would be should Gonzales say his opposition to the Alliance and Ben Tillman in the past was all a joke. There are, however, a number of Conservatives who have had their eyes opened recently to the truths of the Reform cause, and they are with us without any parade and display about it. This class have honestly changed their factional politics, and will in the future help us to carry out the much desired reforms, with out reward or hope of reward. The following is Mr. Wannamaker's debut in the Reform cause : "With the next issue of this paper I will withdraw from the Enterprise. I found out some time ago that Mr. Keller and I could not agree in our political opinions, and concluded to withdraw from the firm of Kelletr & Wannamaker as soon as practicable. "I am firmly of the opinion that the savation of our people, and of the workingman especially, is in the hands of the Reformers. I believe that the reform started in this State by B. R. Tillman will make itself felt throughout our entire nation, and finally result in godl to the masses. Believing such I intend to work with my pen for the accomplishment of the reforms instituted by Gov. Till man and the farmers, and whatever little I might contribute in this way 'I will contribute willingly and with all the power within me. "Realizing that I could not fully do myself, or the cause which I in future will attempt in part to represent, full justice in the columns of the Enter prise, I take my leave of this paper but to enter another and pleasanter and more profitable field of journalism. "I make this explaniation for bene fit of my friends, aind for the enlight enment of anyone who might take a passing interest in the cause of my withdrawal from the Enterprise. "I will have more to say, through another channel, as to why all young men should join in the great work of political reform, which promises bet ter and brighter things for the young and the old andfo'r the generations to come."

Bad1Wm & Co. om Watson Gives Some Figures on the White House Expenses. The annual salary of our chief nagistrate is $50,000. He is furnish d, free of charge, with an elegant esidence called White House. First omes the expense of electing him, >ut the funds for this purpose are urnished by the whiskey ring, the iugar trust, the railroad syndicates, md the occasional speculator who )ays him an office and pays for it in mavance (as Van Alen did,) we need 2ot attempt to go into that part of ,he election; the next thing is to' wear in the President. Formerly he of doing so was next- to nothing. For instance, Thomas Jefferson rode m horseback to the capitol, hitched 2is old mare to the fence, walked in mnd took the oath without it costing mnybody a cent. And the beauty of t was ho kept the oath after he took t. But the Democracy of to-day is Lshamed of the simple ways of the nen and women of the olden time. L'o administer the oath of office on Uarch 4, 1893, cost you the sum of 3,297.66. The items for this expen liture will be found on pages 147, L48, 149 and 150 of the report of the iscal year ending June 30, 1893. The tbove sum does not embrace the cost >f the inaugural ball and other indi -ect expenditures. Having sworn the President in, we luly install him at the White House, mnd proceed to provide for his com .ort. In the Sundry Civil Bill passed by the House March 30, 1894, I find bhat you supplied Mr. Cleveland with $25,000 for new furaiture and re pairs; $3,000, for fuel for mansion and stables; $4 000 to repair the [ower house; $2,500 fcr same, and t2,500 to buy a picture of Benjamin Harrison, the Republican President who preceded the present Republican President. Then you supply Mr. Cleveland with $14,000 to pay for Lamps, matches, lamp-lighters, gas and gas fitters, fuel, etc., and $766.50 for electric lights. The sum total of these itemsb is upwards of $50,000. Turning to the appropriations for 1893, I find that $27,000 was appro priated for the same purpose. Thus Mr. Cleveland has drawn $77,000 on of the treasury since March, 1893, for expenses in the White House-not counting his salary, and the expenses of swearing him in. And the misery of it is that he refuses to observe the oath of office after its costing so much to have him take it. But this is not all. You pay $5,000 to keep the grounds around the house in order; you furnish him with secre taries, clerks, door-keepers, stewarts, ushers, engineers, etc., at the yearly cost of more than $35,000. Then for fear there may be shortage some where you supply him with the "con tingent fund" amounting (in 1893) to $8,000. In their campaign books of 1880 the Democrats accused the Re publicans of wasting the people's money on these White House expen ditures; but the regular annual sums now spent in running the Presidential establishment is greater than it ever has been. 94S4444444$~ Y Your 9 9 Heart's B1ood is the most important part of your organism.
