We had about determined to pay no further attention to what appeared in the other papel' published in this town: because, we i elieve the concern was conceived in jealousy, and born in inal ice. and to continue noticing it, will be simply playing into the hands of its parent. and gratifying his tiendish spleen. We therefore give notice that after this issue we will take no further notice of it, matters not how gross its misrepresentations are.or what it might say, but we shall go right on express ing our opinions in a fearless journalis tic manner, always with a strict regard for the truth. as we see it. and with a full responsibility. morally. phys ically and financially for what we write. On account of a gross and a malignant misrepresentation which appeared in that sheet last week. and which we believe was writ ten for a puri)ose to deceive, we are compelled to refer to its statements about the tickets of two years ago. and errect the misrepresentation. That paper said. ''Two years ago. after the polls had been open for an hour or more. our attention was called to the fact that no State ticket was to be found except the one printed, and sent out by our -Col." Upon inquiry, the county chair man found the State tickets in the ex press office at the depot, brought them up town" etc. This was intended to create the impression that there was sharp practice. The facts are. that on Saturday night preceding the Tuesday of the second primary, a package of tickets reached the Manning express office addressed to "D. J. Bradham" and on the morning of the election Rev. J. 0. Gough accosted County Chairman J. Elbert Davis, and complained to him of there being no State tickets. Mr. Davis told him that he did not think it was customary for State tickets to be sent for the second primary, the voters generally used the tickets left over from the first primar'y. Mlr. Gough told hinm he understood the tickets had been shipped. Mr'. Davis then proffered to walk to the depot to ascertain. having~ received no notice. Whereupon Mr. Cough offered him his horse and Mr. Davis rode down to the depot. and inquired if there was any express mat ter for him. The agent told him no. and as he started out. he remembered Cautain Bradhamn having been county chairman just befor'e him. he inqiuir'ed if ther'e was a package fox' "D. J1. Brad ham County Chairman." No. was the answer, and as Mr. Davis was about to leave the office the agent called his attention to a package addressed" "D. J. Bradham." Mr. Davis asked to see it. and it having the appearance of a package of tickets, he obtained per mission to deliver it to Captain Brad ham. It will thus be seen that if any body was at fault fox' not distributing the tickets in second primary. it was the man to whom the package was ad dressed. We do not complain at his not getting the tickets out to the boxes because, had he received notice of the arrival of the package, that notice would not have been sent him before the day before the election, and it was too short a time to have them distri buted throughout the county. What we complain of. is his attempt to. by indirection, put the blamne on the editor of this paper whom he sneeringly speaks of as "Col" The editor of this paper was not county chairman.never has been,and therefore not responsible for those or any other tickets, and in fact had nothing whatever to do with them. The "State" ticket he speaks of as having been fur nished by us wvas the very tfcket we had at the head of our editorial columns for weeks, and one of the names on it was "For Secretary of State Daniel J. Bradham.'' He did not complain of that ticket then,nor did we hear a complaint from him until after the election, and then his complaint w"as not of that "State ticket." of ours. but, of "C'ooper and his whiskey." We must apoligize to out' readers for wasting so much space. and we promise them, in the future, wve will heed nothing more from that source as we do not propose to give that paper any more fr'ee advcertisingr.

The "Pr'ohibitionists" ar'e now cry ing persecution, and are trying to win votes for' their s'andar'd bearer, by mis repre\se tiig those who had the manli n.ess to deal henestlv with them.

Briggs a small number of the nearest relations of the contracting parties to witness the marriage of Miss Camilla Briggs. eldest daughter of 'r. H. S. Briggs,. and Ir. Willie Davis. Promptly at 3 o'clock p. m. the bridal couple entered. and took their position in the center of a large room, where the family and friends had gathered and arran'ed themselves in a semi-cirele. preparatory to the ceremony which was performed by Rev. J. C. Bailey. After the beautiful and impressive ceremony was over, hand shCkiug and congratu lations came in order, and many was the "God bless you Camilla, God bless you Billy." and the writer could not help from adding and "long may ye live and prosper." Then M1r. Briggs to the surprise of all threw open the door to an adjoining room and invited everybody in to lunch. and shades of Gormand, such a lunch. The table which was beautifully adorn ed with exquisite flowers tastefully ar ranged. actually groaned with good things. immediately after lunch the lovely bride, who wore a handsome, and verv becoming traveling suit. and the groom who was also becomingly attired. and by the way. judging from his looks seemed to be the happiest man in the crowd. bade adieu to their friends, and seating themselves in a beautiful buggy drawn by a handsome pair of horses. started on a drive through the country to Pinewood.where they took the northern bound train for a two week's trip to the up) country wherec they anticipate a delightful time at timel var'iouis watering places, and in viewing the beautiful mountain scenery of North Carolina. After which they expect to retut'n home. It is the in tention of I. Davis to make his home at Panola when he is erecting a hand some residence wbich is nearing com pletion. ONE WHO WAS PRESENT.
