P1IBLISHES ALL COUNTY AND TOWN OFFICIAL ADVERTISEMENTS. MANNING, S. C.: WEDNESDAY, JULY 21, 1897. Coffee at 12 1-2 cents. From time to time we have called the attention of the public to bar gains we had to offer but this time we offer them a bargain in Green Coffee that beats any bargain we have ever offered in this line. A very nice quality of Coffee at 12 1-2c. per lb. We have Coffee in stock as low as 8 1-3c. per lb., but there is none in the market that equals our 12 1-2c. Coffee for the money. Ladies, we wish to call your atten tion to the fact that we are closing out the remainder of our Spring and Summer stock of Dry Goods very cheap and you will be standing in your own light if you make any pur chases before you see what we have to offer you. We mean business. Just received a lot of Ladies' Linen Crash Skirting, the craze of the sea son, only 12 1-2c. per yard. Gents, when you want cheap Straw Hats, give us a call. We have them. A full stock of Ladies' Fine Milli nery on hand all the time. Splendid bargains to offer in Plug Tobacco. Yours for the cash, W. E. JENKINSON. Buy your ice at Huggins' market. Major Abe Levi is now in Canada. Mr. and Mrs. J. F. LeGrand spent last Sunday in Sumter. The Central hotel has just put in a very sweet-toned piano. Prof. E. J.

The pension board met last Monday. Major C. S. Land, of Foreston, and Mr. G. W. Smith, of Fulton, were present. Mr. W. B. Wilson, manager of the Caro lina Grocery Company, of Charleston, spent last Sunday in Manning visiting friends. Now is the time to get cheap dress. goods at E. C. Horton's. There was to be a lawn party last Mon day night in the church grove, but on ac count of the inclement weather it was post poned. Miss Kate DeLorme, after a visit of sev eral weeks to her sister, Mrs. J. F. Le Grand, returned to her home in Sumter last Friday. Supervisor Owens has been getting com plaints about people planting in the roads, andi he wants the township overseers to look after this matter. The Manning Academy will open Mon day, September 6, with Mrs. E. C. Alsbrook and, Mi'jor J. R. McLean as teachers. Dr. R. B. Loryea left this morning to at-. tend the meeting of the State- Board of Pharmaceutical Eaminers which meets in Columbia. Dr. Loryea is secretary of the Board, Read the correspondence between Mr. W. T. Kennedy of Seloc and Hon. J. E. Ellerbe, candidate for Congress. The manufacturers of reports have already be gun their work. There is no man or set of maen that can influence the voters of Clarendon away from John L. McLaurin because McLaurin has a warm personal friend that is support ing who he pleases for Congress. Ice for sale at Huggins' market. Merchants! We are about to invest in a lot of new advertising .type and we hope you will get up your advertisements early and make such contracts as will encourage the improvement we have commenced. The County chain gang is operating in the Salem section;- they are doing good work on the roads, but on account of not being able to get lumber the bridges can not. for the present receive their attention. Attention, Baseball Clubs ! Full line of Baseballs and Bats at R. B. Loryea's. Our choice for Congress is a farmer fully able to grasp the intricate national prob lems, as his speeches fully prove, and un less his opponents can prove something against his character or his loyalty to the Democratic party we will stick to him to the last. Remember the 31st of this month is the very last day to make town tax returns. The town council have determined to enforce the law with reference to returns, and if you wish to save y ourselves the penalty, make your returns before the time is out. Pupils will be coached in the Manning Academy in any particular study prepara tory to entering college. We are informed that the Salem mceting last T1hursday was very small. The crowd did not exceed forty, candidates and all. This is accounted for by the fact that the people in that section are ' busy atten ding to the curing of their tobacco, and they haven't the time to attend political meet ings. From Cole's Mill the candidates went to Kingstree. Clerk of Court Timmons has returned from Charleston. Mr. 'immons did not have the operation on his face performed as many thought, but the doctors did pave the way for an operation which will be per formed later. The tumor on his face is re duced in size and it is thought that the thing can be entirely removed without any serious results. He expects to return to the intirmary soon. Fresh turnip seed, all kinds. 1?. B. Lor yea, the druggist. A painful and serious attack of illness has held me in its grasp for months. I seem to be recovering, but very slowly, atnd I fear it may be months yet before I shall be fully able to resume my pen and labors. Relatives, correspondents and other friends will please be patient with me. Joux M. RzcaanDsos. Dangerfield, Tex., July 17, 1897. On account of the Congressional meeting there has become some confusion about the date of the Senatorial campaign day. The day that John L. McLaurin, John L. M. Ir by, John Gary Evans, John T. Duncan and S. G. Mayfield are to be here is August 27th. Everybody that can do so should come and witn ess the battle of the Johns. Remember that Clarendon loves to honor John L. McLaurin and we can assure his friends that his speech on August 27th will be the finest of the campaign. Come and hear him. Ladies, go to E. C. Horton for bargains. "Last summer one of our grand-children was sick with a severe bowel trouble," says Mrs. E. G. Gregory, of Frederickstown, Mo., 'our doctor s remedies had failed, then we tried Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which gave very speedy relief." For sale by IR. B. Loryea, th.. druggit. We have been told that if we support a certain candidate for Congress we will drive votes away from our friend John L. McLaurin. Our reply is. the man who is driven away from McLaurin on account of our support of anybody, is not a sincere supporter of M cLiurin, nor never was: we further say, that if our support of this cat - didate for Congress drives votes a way irom John L McLaurin they will have to be driven, because we do not propose to Lc throttled by such tactics. E. C. Horton is selling out his entire stock of summer dress goods at cost. Our not having endorsed in this is re any particular Congressional candidate is not to be taken that we will not do so. It is our purpose to find out as much as pos sible about each of the gentlemen and then make a square fight for our choice. In the meantime we will give the friends of each of the candidates an opportunity to fly blow the man who is most likely to beat their favorite, knowing full well that the people and not the politicians are to decide this contest. Go to Brockinton's for ice cold soda, milk shakes and cococola. The Manning Academy will open this season with Major J. R. McLean associated with Mrs. E. C. Alsbrook in its manage ment, and as both of these teachers have a wide experience, that institation will be prepared to do good educational work. Mrs. Alsbrook's reputation as % teacher is well known in this community and she has been time and again endorsed with a good patronage. Major McLean is an instructor of many years' experience. He has de voted the best years of his life to teaching and the Manning Academy is fortunate in having secured his services. We know the great cures by Hoods Sar saparilla are genuine b:cause the people themselves write about them. A Call to Colored Teachers. The State Superintendent of Education, Hon. W. D. Mayield, has appointed to be bolden in this County, at Manning, a teachers' institute for colored teachers, wita Prof. J. E. Wallace as conductor, July 26 to 30. This is the first time in the his tory of the County that the opportunity has come to the doors of the Clarendon teach ers and it becomes us to exhibit a deep in terest in this matter, by the enrollment of every teacher within the bounds of the County. Progressive teachers need learn and must instruct by progressive methods-methods best adapted to lead out and build up the mind of the pupil and develop an effectual citizenship in this age of practicability. There is no reason why we should not so enroll ourselves as to show that we read ily appreciate the value of such meetings as being one of the best agencies calculatei to advance the profession of the teacher. If we do not show by our presence a proper conception of the value of an insti tute in the diffusion of new, and withal, natural methods of instruction, we shall fall in the estimation of those who have to pass upon the competency and fitness of us as teachers. Quite an interesting time is expected and not one of us should stay at home, regard less of the inconvenience it may occasion. Respectfully, RoBERT A. STEWABT, Rev. L. B. E.LERsoN, Rev. L. W. JENi' s, N. S. DELAIE. THE POPULAR DOUGLAS SHOES. '1here is no shoe made for men's wear that has attained a greater popularity than the celebrated W. L. Douglas shoe. The fact that they combine style and quality at a low price has given them universal en dorsement. The manufacture of these shoes has made it possible for a man in the most ordinary circumstances to keep him self provided with footwear of as good style as the market affords-the extremay low price at which they are scild placing them within reach of all. Thb only cbcap quality in them, how ever, isthe price'; in all other respects they gr-.de asi high as any shoe in the market. Their lastirng qualities have been fully tested aiu found to be unequalled. They are nos only of good style when new, but rot'.n their shape and excellent appearance until completely worn out-a very rare quality in even the highest priced shoes. They are sold in Vanning by E. C. Horton, who has just received a new invoice of the various styles. No Ballets Furnished. Office of CaB. Dnx. PAnTY, 1 CoLUMBL&., S. C., July 15. ( Mr. A. J. Ricssorno, St. Paul, S. C.: Dear Sir-Your letter of the 7th inst. to hand.- We furnish no tickets for primary elections. Every candidate is supposed to attend to this. Very respectfully, D. B.. TroMPrdS. Per R. As required by the County Executive Committee, I addressed the chairman of the State Executive Committee to ascertain if he would furnaish the tickets to be used at the approaching primary election to be held on the 31st of August and having re ceived the above reply, I insert the same in THE Tnn, that each candidate may take notice and govern himself accordingly. A. J. RIcHBot~no, Sec. Co. Ex. Coin., C. C. THERE IS NOTHING SO GOOD. There is nothing just as good as Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, so demand it and do not permit the dealer to sell you substitute. He will not claim there is anything better, but in order to make more profit he may claim something else to be just as good. You want Dr. King's New Discovery be ause you know it to be safe and reliable, and guaranteed to do good or money re funded. For Coughs, Colds. Consumption nd for all affections of TLroat, Chest and Lungs, there is nothing so good as is Dr. King's New Discovery. Trial bottles free t R.. B. Loryea's drug store. Regular size 50 and $1.00. Dr. Badger in New York. Editor THE TzISs: After a sojourn of several weeks in the busy, bustling and hustling city of New York, I will turn my face Southward and omeward this week. The weather has been fearfully hot, the suffering among the peo::.le has been great, my work has been hard, but so much to see and learn that scarcely had time to think of the heat. I have received the kindest possible treat mnt from these people, and especially among the profession. Dr. Gilt Wylie. formerly of our State and conspicuously prominent here, as soon as he found I was from his old State, was particularly kind in inviting me to witness a number of opera tions performed by himself and his brother at his private sanitarium and at Believue ospital. I have met several M. D.s fromt the South and West who are and have been here at tending, like myself, a p)ost graduate ourse. Drs. Mlood and China, of Sumter. arrived yesterday. T'hey with several friends went on to Saratoga, where they will spend several days and on their return the party will break up in Newv York, Drs. 31. and C. remaining here several weeks to ake b run of the hospitals. Perhaps, if agreeable, I will on my return give THE TIMEs something more about my trip that may interest some of your readers. B. M. ADGER. New York. July 12tn. NO DISTRESS NOW.a "After a long sickness I was left v'ery weak and my stomach was in such a con dition that I could not retain food. I de cided to try Hood's Sarsaparilla and I found it gave me relief. I was soon so much better that I could eat anid drink mything I wished, and I gained rapidly in .es." Mrs. J. B. S'roEEs, North Decatur, Hood's Pills are the favorite family ca thartic. Easy to take, easy in effect. Dots From Tarecote. Tuesday evening last as the "pale mis tress of the night" in all her regal splendor appeared in the eastern horizon, the pleasure seekers of the Fork gathered at the bospitable home of M1iss Carrie DuRant to stroll around the spacious lawa and softly joyale fea:turi of t even.in ; a w hen Wt, s:emil .1 at OnP si.lo of tl .tn to el ed~t~t 1- e" h t .

For sale by R. B. Loryea, the druggist. Dots From Sandy Grove. On the hills of the faous old Padding Swamrp a hard and desperate battle has been fought bo tween the ores of General Green reinforced by Major Showers and ourselves. We have the enemy in check, however, but by no means conquered. Tobacco curing is the order of te day just no in Salem. Mr. G. M. Hicks is said to have the finest in the Count. Cotton has improved considerably in the last two or three weeks. Corn crops are tolerably fair. Well, we really did not have time to go out to hear the Congressional candidates. We had made our choice anyway, as we had met them all except Mr. Bryant. We will have to support that brilliant young fa:mer statesman, Hon. J. E. El!erbe. What means this recent friendship be tween ex-Governor Evans and ex-Senator Irby? Is it a combination to defeat Sena tor McLaurin? It looks that way to us. Just watch the Senatorial candidates. They tell you McLaurin will be Senator, for they are everyone running against him and he against all the cthers. Well, if McLaurin loses twenty-five votes in oil Clarendon. we will be surprised. Who is Editor Larry Gantt running for; Senator Duucn? He "cussed" out McLaurin and Evans and turned his back on Irby at the Constitu tional Convention We see a correspondence between State Laud Agent Gibbs and a Mr. King, of Massachusets, in regard to Government lands in South Carolina. It seems that some New Englander wants to emigrate to South Carolina. Now, Mr. Editor, charity begins at home, and for pity's sake, let it finish its work there before it goes abroad. We have hundreds, yes thousands, of peo ple who own no homes in South Carolina today. Would it not be better to home stead some of our own people before invit ing from abroad. We hear a great deal about inviting Northern capital to South Carolina, and advertising her great re sources, etc., but if the e harleston cotton mill and the proposed new cotton mill at Columbia are examples of what Northern capital is to do in our midst, we do not want it or anything else that will bring about any more competition between our poor white laborers and the negro than already exist. We are glad to learn that Clerk of Court J. H. Timmons had a successful operation performed for aneurism on his face. We will write and give you the news again before long, if wve have any. SAM TATTLER. Manning Academy. The academy will open on Monday, Sep tember 6. The services of Major J. R. McLean, a tcacher of thorough experience in academic work has been engaged as a cc-worker.

CuTy C.upEvsor IAii CANDIDATE! It matters not who runs, I am in the race, and I hope to stay, and when I am elected, to remain so. Will you vote for me? I think you will when you hear my platform. I believe in more money. If I didn't I wouldn't be in this race. I prefer silver and greenbacks, but gold does very well to take along also. "Equal rights to all and special privileges to none" is a patriotic sentiment, but one that it is hard for human na ture to work squarely up to and practice. My motto is "cheap goods and honest bargains to all, and take advantage of none if I know it." How do you like that prin ciple ? Very well, of course. Then remember it this fall and come to see me. If nothing happens I will be in the new brick store next to McLeod's corner, and will have a general line of Merchandise, which I will offer as low as goods can reasonably be sold. I have already bought most of my fall stock, which will be in next month, about the time I occupy my new store. You are most cordially in vited to call on me. Yours very truly, J. HARRY LESESNE.
