Mr. McCullough of Greenville has in
troduced a bill, looking to the collection of
taxes from a class of property that has in a
very large measure escaped taxation. He
proposes to require all notes, mortgages
and other securities to show the Auditors
stamp b.fore they can have a standing in
court. We have read the bill over once,
and it strikes us as being a good measure
to put a stop to tax dodging. A man with
a horse or an ox must make a retnrn and
pay the tax, then why not the man who has
bis money invested in securities?

It is abouttime our citizens were begin
ning to find out. what they are going to do
for a school next session, as we are in
formed that the present principal of the
Collegiate Institute does not expect to
teach any longer than this session. Surely
we are not thinking of trusting to luck for
a school for our children and wait until ne
cesity drives us to take what we can get in
the shape of a teacher. Rteaders,this is a se
rious matter and it behooves us all to join
hands and give Manning a first class
school established upon a solid basis. We
know there are some opposed to a graded
school because it will require a tax to
maintain it, but the majority cannot afford
to allow the wishes of the few to govern in
a matter of such serious importance. Man
ning must have a good school system, cost I
what it will, and it can be had if a majority
will consent to be taxed.
These are dangerous times for the health.

as a long head; he knows that there are E
many dollars yet in the land and as long as
e holds that belief he is going to send out
ii feeler to entice them into his store. Ken
dall claims it is cheaper to advertise and
let the people know where they can secure
yargains than it is to hire a clerk to wipe
the mould off s.hoes or brush the dust from
dry goods. The people of Clarendon have
een taught to learn that the merchant
ho follows Kendall must keep up a rapid
ace or get left and they are always pleased
o see his name in print. When Kendall's
ame appears it means a cut in prices
launted into the faces of his competitors
nd as a general thing it leaves a case of
dry grins" on fellows who cannot see how
it can be done.
It ha't been demonstrated repeatedly in
every state in the Union and in many for
eign~ countries that Chamberlain's cough
emedy is a certain preventive and cure for
roup. It has become the universal rem.
edy for that disease. M. V. Fisher of Lib
erty, W. Va., only repeats what has been
said around the globe when he writes: "I
have used Chamberlain's cough remedy in
y family for several years an d always with I
erfect success. WYe believe that it is not
only the best cough remedy, but that is a1
ure cure for croup. It has saved the lives
f our children a number of times." This ]

Many of our readers will wonder why it
was that Clarendon was not released frotn
the operations of the seed cotton license
law, when the request to b exempt was a
purely local affair, and the only explana
tion we can give is that Claren don is sand
witched between Sumter and Williamsburg;
the former worked againvt the measure be
cause it would intertere with Sumter and
the later worked against it, because it now
has an advan:age it doe's not want to lose.
'hen there are other counties that are not
only opposed to telling Clarendon to do as
she pleases with this matter, but they are
anxious to fix the license to high that it
would prohibit the traffic in seed cotton al
together. Sumter has a prohibitive license
and her representatives claim that it has
stopped the stealing of cotton. Williams
burg on the other hand hits no license and
her representatives are divided on the
question whether or not the license should
be put on, and until they finally come to
agreement they stand solidly opposed to
Clarendon's release. If not this session,
we promise that at the next session a bill
will be iistro.tuce putting all counties on
an equal footing. If we are to have the
license system orced upon us, then it is
but justice that our adjoining counties be
put under the license system.
La grippe is again epidemic. Every pre
caution should be taken to avoid it. Its
specific cure is One Minute Cough Cure.
A J Shepperd, publisher Agricultural Jour
nal and Advertiser, Elden, Mo., says: "No
one will be disappointed in using One Win
ute Cough Cure for la grippe." Pleasant
to take, quick to act. R B Loryea, Man
ning; L W Nettles, Foreston; H L Wilson,
Jordan.
Our Financial Condition.
It is with sincere regret that we have to
make a statement with reference to our
county's financial condition, after having
already in a previous issue held out the
hope that the county tax levy would not be
raised. Believing it to be the best policy
to deal candily with the people, we feel it
due them to acquaint them of the existing
eonditions. In order to ascertain how
much it will need to run the county gov
ernment we must first find out the assessed
valuation of taxable property and then cal
culate a levy that will collect enough to
meet the running expenses. The places to
get this information is the Auditor, Treas
urer, and Supervisor's office, and upon go
ing to the Auditor we find an assessed val
uation of $2,496, 000; this amount with the
present levy of 4 mills brings into the
county treasury $9,984; at the Supervi
sor's office we find the appropriation for
salaries. roads, bridges, chaingang, ineur
ance and other expenses was $10,310,
which was more than a 4 mill levy would
provide, but the reason given us, was that
after the former legislative delegation had
calculated the levy for last year, the State
board of Equalization reduced the assess
ment over $100,000 which of course made
the tax collection several hundred dollars
less than was expected and which defeated
the object of the Representatives (i. e.,)
make the levy raise enough money to
meet all of the county's expenses.
It was our purpose to fight against an
increase in the levy, mainly because of the
hard times and the low prices the people
received for their products, and for the
further reason that we promised to vote
against an increase on the levy; when this
was done however, we did not know the
true financial condition and there was no
way of tinding out until now; what we have
sai'd about this matter before was based
upon estimates; learning the true condition
of affairs we cannot see a reme-ly without
an increased levy. We have witnessed the
disbursing of the county funds the past
week and we saw salaries prorated, a thing
that should never be in a country where it
is believed that the "laborer is worthy of
his hire." Our Sw. riff, Auditor. Magistrates,

i muatter of time when steps will have to be

gaist the county will not be content to
old them in their present shape, and they
ill go into court and get a judgment that
ill draw interest. It is by tar better to put
he levy at 5 mills and pay off all of the
ebts and then gradually lowerthe levy,than
o allow it to remain as at present, adding
ebt to debt. With the present levy, for
our years there will be no change in the
eal estate assessment, within four years
larendon County will have a debt upon
er shoulders of not less than $10,000; but
f we raise the levy now to 5 miils it is our
incere conviction that all of the debts will
e paid and the county put on such a basis

Capital Correspondence.
Just when the Legislature will ad
journ cannot be told yet, as none of
the important measures have been
acted upon. One if the most im
portant questions to be settled is the
changing of the Congressional Dis
tricts; two bills have been intro
duced; one in the Senate and one in
the House, and we believe the dis
enssion will cost more than the pro
ject is worth. If the re-districting
bills pass as they are written, Clar
endon will be a bump on a log. We
will be tacked on to Richland and
Kershaw, which will mean that Co
lumbia will have the Congressman in
the future. We are opposed to the
scheme and will vote and work
against it. But we fear the politi
cians have got the scheme so thor
oughly organized that it will be hard
to frustrate them.
. The dispensary will take up a
a great part of the time, and since
Mr. Featherstone has advised the
Prohibitionists to join the forces
with the anti-dispensaryites there is
every reason to believe that com
promises will be made. There are
all kinds of views on the liquor ques
tion; some want the dispensary,
others want -prohibition and some
want high license with dispen
sary restrictions. In our opinion,
the people will have to finally settle
this much vexed issue and it will be
best, so that the politicians will have
to seek some new hobby.
A bill was introduced by one of
our representatives to amend the
Hawkers and Peddlers act. This law
requires the County Commissioners
to fix a license on a certain class of
hawkers and peddlers,andthe amend
ment is to include iterant dealers in
horses; as the law stands now there
is no license fee for horse traders
who come here from abroad and
compete with the local. dealers.
These iterant dealers place our local
dealers at a disadvantage, because
the local dealer has his property
here and is taxed while he comes
along, does the same business with
out taxation which is not fair to
those who are a part and parcel of
us and who share in the expenses of
running the government.
Another representative has in con
templation a bill to sell the poor
farm property and the proceeds to
be utilized in some other way. We
doubt the advisibility of this scheme
for the reason that the county must
have a place to take care of its poor.
If a better site could be pro
cued so that the farm could be made
self-sustaining, as is the case in many
counties, we would favor the scheme.

Last Thursday was General R. E.
Lee's birthday and by law a legal
holiday, the Legislature took a recess
until Friday; most of the members
went to their homes. On Friday
the General Assembly reconvened,
but very little was done; the Senate
caught up with its work in about
one hour and was left waiting on the
Lower House. An adjournment took
place then until Monday.
Dr. I. M. Woods, on last Monday
morning, made a strong speech to
repeal the lien law. He held the at
tention of the house and as his effec
tive blows were being pounded on
the "octupus," as he termed it, a
motion to adjourn was made and
failed to pass. Then an attempt was
made to take a recess, and also fail
ed. The house evidently wanted to
hear Clarendon's representative. Dr.
Woods was at his best and struck the
the lien law some mighty blows.
Hon. H. B. Richardson reported a
substitute bill from Committee on
Public School, advocating the ap
propriation of the Privilege Tax to
the common schools of the State.
This is intended to take the income
from the Privilege Tax from Smiths

free schools, the benefit of which, if
adopted, will be a great help to the
free schools.
