A match game of base ball was played in Manning yesterday between the kids of Sumter and Mannin;g, and although Sum ter came here amid a grand flourish of trum pets, with lots of airs, and a huge amount of wind,our boys gave them a flne,large and agnificent drubbing to the tune of 24 to 10 in favor of Manning, and the last we saw of the Sumter imitations of sports. was in carriages behind fleet footed horses, and paper cigarettes, going out of town singing "Break the news to tmother," a song quite a ,Cs after the licking they received at t - uands of Slanning's youngest players.

Brockinton, Manning. There is an effort being made to interest the tobacco growers of Salem to erect a warehouse midway of the tobacco belt near one of the tram roads, in order to have the market nearer the fields and thus save hauling. We do not believe the scheme will work nor will it pay, for the reason that it requires more than one section to support a market which will be advantage ous to the parties most interested. We arc' satisfied that Manning can be, and will be, one of the best markets in the State, and we know it will if the growers will give Mr. C. 3I. Mason the encouragement his undertaking deserves.

Jenkinson whose name is a household word in Clar endon county. We would not know how to begin were we to undertake to tell our readers what Jenkinson has in his store and what he proposes to do. Let it be sufficient for us to say that he will carry an unusually heavy fail and winter stock and that he propose's to sell his goods. This of course means that he snaps his fingers in the face of opposition and defies competi tion from whatever source. Jenkinson is a merchant and his success proves his abil Ity to rank among the best. Watch Jen kinsot's advertisements this season and he will keep you informed.

The M~anning and Summerton baseball teams played the second of a three-game sres on the MIanning grounds last Thurs day. The Summierton boys accused the Ianning team of playing picked players from Juneville, but this male no differ ence, and when the game wvas called the shocking figures of 29 to 7 in favor of Sum muerton was the result announced by the scorers. Notwithstanding it was one- sidtd all the way through, it was an interesting game, and'it will take powerful good play ing to keep Summerton from wearing the county championship, as Sublet's and Can tey's pitching will be hard to overcome.

Loryea, drug The taxpavers of the town of arniny have good groun as to complain of the Way ne tow n council is convertin itse hf i sto a "star chamber," where secret laws are en xacted t never known until some unfort unate one happens to break such a law. The council meets, makes a law and witho out giving the people =n opportunity to know the law, exnect obedience. This is wrong andt ne blieve it will not stand the test of the courts, because people are not expected to sniff the law from the atmos piere. The council mlit have money to run the town; this is procured from taxa tione no fwail r notice is given to the tax pavers that returns are to boe made and taxes atre to ke collected by a given time. If the town concil believe they can en force a tax collection by such proeceedingsI we will advise themu to the contrary and: when they undertake to enforce a penalty for filure to miake re-urns or pay taxes without first having giveu full and fair no tie, we will tell them they are running up against an obstruction which will be difli cult to overcome. The mere sticking up of an ordinance on the street we contend is not a fair notice, because people d.o not, as a rule, stop on the streets to read notices, and non-resident property owners haven't the opportunity. It may be said that self-interest prompts this item. Grant that to be so, we believe we have a right to demand patronage from the town, which we lire endeavoring to help build up, as a taxpayer probably a larger taxpayer than mentbers of the coun cil, who are, to keep us from getting this patronage, depriving the people of the in. formation they are entitled to know. We repeat that no council can enforce the col lection of taxes without giving proper no tice, and no ordinance can be enforced without first having been duly ratified and published. We believe in economy. but there is such a thing as watching the spigot while the waste tlows from the bung. and this is exactly what the council is doing by not properly publishing their ordinances. THE TiEs will publish all of their ordi nances at the rates allowed by law and will I wait on them for the pay until they have the money, as it has done before. A Remarkable Case.
