SCHOOL BOOKS.
It is hard to predict what will
come up before the General As
sembly for its consideration, but
there is one matter, in our judg
ment, worthy of much thought
and in the coming session there
should be a way found that
would compel the graded schools
of this State to use text-books
adopted by the State Board of
Education. The school book
problem is one which has given
the people much concern, and
the law now requiring county
superintendents to keep and sell
books at cost was intended to be
a saving to the people, but if
the superintendents of graded
schools are to be allowed to ig
nore the State adoption and
adopt books of their own choice,
then the intention of the law is
not carried out. As we under
stand it, schools not in special
school districts, or the ordinary
country schools, must use the
books adopted by the State
Board, but in the special dis
tricts they can use them or not,
as their superintendents may de
cide. This is not right-it is a
discrimination which operates
against those people who have
expressed a willingness to pay
an additional tax for educational
facilities.
The books adopted by the
State can be bought at cost, and
there is no doubt about it, thou
sands of dollars are saved to
the people. We contend, if the
books adopted are good enough
for a part of the children of the
State, they certainly must be
good enough for all, and we see
so reason or justice in compell
ing those who have burdened
themselves with an additional
tax to be deprived of the advan
tages given those who depend
solely on the three mill consti
tutional tax for the maintenance
of their schools.
The school book concerns are
traveling men all through this
State to introduce books which
were not adopted by the board,
and in many instances they have
succeeded in getting their books
taken. What is the result of
this? A book dealer,and not the
county school officer handles the
book and of course he makes a
profit and possibly the teachers
get a commission out of the sale.
We are convinced that the peo
ple have been systematically
mulct, that superintendents and
teachers of schools might make
something "on the side" for
themselves, and unless the Leg
islature takes a hand in the mat
ter and fixes it so that the book.
adopted must be used by town
as well as country schools, the
educational revival in this State
will be considerably checked.
Now that politics is out of the
way, the people should rejoice at
the prospect of being able to get
something else to discuss. We
want to keep them reminded,
that there is no law which forces
the farmers of this country to
hold up their hands and allow
the fertilizer trust to commit
robbery, by charging extortion
ate prices, and we want to warn
people against that class of men
who mix inferior grades athomne,
to sell on credit. We have known
of inferior fertilizers "mixed at
home" which were sold on time
for the price of first class goods
that was little better than dirt.
It is bad enough to be robbed
by the Trust, but when the
Trust thief makes grab and then
turns you over to a fleecer at
home, it is time the consumer
open his eyes. We have no in
terest in fertilizers whatever,
but we know it to be a fact that
their is no article of commerce
used by the people which admits
of more swindle than commercial
fertilizer, and as tihe Trust has
gotten control of this important
article we are satisfied they will
squeeze as much price out of it
as tile people will submit ' to.
The farmer can block the game
of the Trust if he will, and he
c'an also drive the little "mixer"
out of the market. The way to
to the analysis: this can be done
without cost by sending a sample
to the State chemist, and where
a fertilizer does not come up to
the grade purchased, refuse to
pay and prosecute. Then again:
stand together and if the Trust
undertakes to extort. boycott it
and let it keep the stuff in its
warehouses.
The recent election was a vic
tory for the Trusts, and we look
for them to make' the people "pay
the piper" if they can.

Santee Baptist Association.
The Santee Baptist association
met on Thursday of last week
with the Mispah church, which
is located ten miles above Bish
opville. This church was organ
ized in 1897, has a membership
of about sixty, and has just re
cently completed a neat and com
fortable house of worship. The
dedication of the new church
was had Wednesday night before
the association convened, and
the sermon was preached by
Rev. C. C. Brown, D. D. Rev.
J. Walter Kenny is the pastor
of the church
The association was organized
Thursday morning by the elec
tion of Col. T. V. Walsh as mod
erator: Dr. C. C. Brown, clerk,
and Mr. B. P. Cuttino, treasurer.
The enrollment of delegates was
small at the beginning, but be
fore the meeting closed nineteen
of the twenty-six churches com
posing the body were represent
ed. The introductory sermon
was preached Thursday night by
Rev. J. D. Huggins. The church
was crowded and he preached a
most excellent sermon, After
the sermon the association was
convened, and Rev. M. A. Con
nors, of Summerton, gave a talk
on Foreign Missions.
Friday was a busy day. After
devotional exercises conducted
by Rev. A. E. Crane, the new
pastor of the Camden Baptist
church, and some miscellaneous
subjects, the subject of Foreign
Missions was again taken up and
discussed by Rev. J. B. Crouch,
who submitted a brief report.
The report on the Orphanage
was read by Rev. Alan Pressley
Wilson. of Bishopville, and
speeches were made by Capt. D.
J. Bradham, of Manning, one of
the trustees, and by Rev. C. D.
Peterson. The association sus
pended its rule against taking
collections and a contribbtion of
sixteen dollars was made to the
institution.
The subject of Temperance was
reported on by Rev. J. W. Davis,
and remarks were made on it by
Messrs. Bradham, Huggins and
Davis.
The report on Sunday schools
was submnitted by Rev. A. P.
Wilson, and was discussed by
Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Goodall and
others. The first speaker urged
the importance of supplying the
schools with the best helps and
appliances, and the necessity, of
the most thorough preparation
of teachers, while Mrs. Goodall's
remarks had special reference to
the work in the infant depart
ment.
Following this discussion Dr.
C. C. Brown gave a good talk on
China, and the mission work of
the Baptist church in that coun
try, using a map on which the
mission stations were marked.
Friday night was devoted to
State missions, and the report
submitted by Mr. B. P. Cuttino,
of this city. The report stated
that over six hundred dollars had
been already contributed during
the present convention year, this
being more than was apportioned
to the association. Thus far the
Santee is ahead of all the other
associations in this matter.
-Saturday morning the associa
tion was opened with devotional
exercises conducted by Rev. A.
P. Wilson.
After miscellaneous business
the report on the state of the
churches was read by Rev. M.
A. Connors. There are 26
churches in the body, reports
from-19 of the number show con
tributions in the aggregate of
$13,349.95 against $9,221.10 last
year: an increase of $4,328.85.
This report brought out some
good speeches from Messrs. Con
nors, Brown, Huggins and
Gough, The latter dwelling with
emphasis on the importance of
discipline in the churches.
The aged Minister's then came
in for consideration. The report
was read by Rev. J. W. Kenny,
and states that there are now 35
beneficiaries. ~Dr. Brown spoke
to the report and said that there
are 300 good women in the State
who are helping him to take care
of these wards. He begun the
work just ten years ago. The
first year he raised $280, this
year he hopes to get $2,800. The
association again suspended its
rule against taking collections,
and allowed the brethren to make
a contribution to the old preach
The report on obituaries was
read and some tender words were
spoken by Rev's. Brown and

Kenny. Then followed several
minor reports, and the work of
the body was over. The mis
sionary sermon was preached
Sunday morning by Rev. J. O.
Gough.
Some of the reports from the
churches of the association were
very fine.
The Manning church, Rev.
John O. Gough, pastor, has a
membership of 223, and during
the year raised $3,359.08. Of
this sum State Missions, receiv
$284.91; Home Missions, $27.33:
Foreign Missions, $31.55; Gospel
Missions, $269.40: Education,
$429.30; Orphanage, $258.04;
Aged Ministers, $54.46: the re
mainder going to pastor's salary,
home expenses, etc.
The Sumter church also made
an excellent report. It has a
membership of 303, and raised
during the year $5,090.42, which
was distributed as follows: Pas
tor's salary aad home expenses,
$1,301.83; State Missions, $133.
19; Home Missions, $205.65; For
eign Missions, $133.06; Orphan
age, $74.92; Aged Ministers,
$80.75; Education, $25: miscella
neous, $3,141.22. The last item
was for the new church building
fund.
Calvary and Summerton
churches constitute the field of
Rev. M. A. Connors, and under
his wise leadership both churches
are making substantial progress.
The Summerton church raised
during the year $989.30; and all
but $430.00 went to benevolent
purposes. The Calvary church
raised $562.65, and of this amount
$172.65 was for benevolence.

A Village Blacksmith Saved His ILittle Son's
Life.
Mr. H. H. Black, the well known village
blacksmith at Grahamsville. Sullivan county,
N. Y.. says: "Our little son. five vears old. has
always been subject to croup, anil so bad have
the attacks been that we have feared many
times that he would die. We have had the doc
tr and used many medicines, but Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is now our sole reliance.
It seems to dissolve the tough mucus and by
giving frequent doses when the croupy symp
toms appear we have found that the dreaded
croup is cured before it gets settled." There is
no danger in giving this remedy for it contains
no opium or other injurious drug and may be
given as confidently to a babe as to an adult.

Tree of Bargains grows and the fruit on that tree is RIPE NOW. There is but
one of these trees in Manning and that is in the
NEW YORK RACKET STORE.
My friend, are you one who has carelessly allowed yourself to drift from
here and there and then fall in where you happn to see something you want?
Are you one of the kind that go to the wrong pace because you did not know
the better place? Do you trade with " Bud Smth" or "Son Williams" just be
cause you have known him, or because you came froni the same place and were
reared up together? Do you trade with "Cousin Jim" because he is "kin " to
vou? Or "U~ncle Bill" because you have always traded with him and didn't
know the price of the same goods at other places? Is this your case, my friend?
If this is the way you trade, my friend, let me advise you to come to our
store, where the Tree of Bargains grows, and
They Are Ripe Now.
Have you any regard for your pocket-book or for the beginning or contin
uance of your happy domestic relations?
We cannot boast of being reared up with any of you, or being a Clarendon
youth, but we claim to sell you goods at a saving of 25 per cent cheaper than
elsewhere, regardless of the long acquaintances.
One of our competitors says we don't sell anything but trash, but that islis
old cry. He can't sell a pair of shoes or a hat or dress without saying some
thing 'mean about his competitors, but we all know him, and if what he says is
true My! My! ain't there lots of trash worn and sold here? If everybody in the
whole "country did not know him and know how much of what he says to be
lieve we would say more. But, friends, don't forget the TREE OF BARGAINS.
We live by our trade and for our trade.
Yours for bargains,
R ACKET - STORE,.
S. I. TILL, Proprietor.
