Eke gauuing Eiu LO)UIS APPELTr. Erlitor MANNING, s. C., OCT. 23. 1901. PUBLISHED EVERY WEDNESDAY. THE EXPOSITION. As announced in last week's issue of THE TIMEs the editor was called to Charleston to attend the meeting of the State exposi tion commission of which he has the honor of being a member: the principal object of the meet ing was to ascertain what pro gress had been made on the "State's building." the probabil ity of having a fine exhibit of the State's resources, and what else should be done to make a good showing to the people for the ;50,001 apropriated. The Commission made a for mal inspect ion of all of the buildings. talked to the officers and contractors; they also had talks with the foremen in charge of gangs of workmen, and it was the unanimous conclusion that unless some unforeseen condi tion arises such as fire, storm, pestilence or some other Provi dential cause, the South Carolina Inter State and West Indian Ex position will throw open its gates for the reception of visitors on the 1st, day of December, not withstanding the fact that there is a class of men going through the country spreading a report that the "exposition has been postponed for two months," this report is calculated to chill the efforts of those who are urging the counties and municipalities that have done nothing so far, to get into the procession and take advantage of this opportu nity to advertise their resources. We feel positively sure that the Charleston exposition will be nearer completion on its "open ing day" than was Atlanta or Nashville. Of course all of the buildings will not have been fin ished by' the first day of Decem ber, but all of the principal ones, will be sufficiently advanced to receive and install exhibits. Every exposition that has so far been held, has had to open before all of the buildings were fully completed. The State's building, which is not as far advanced as most of the other principal buildings, will have its wood work finished by the 15th, day of November, is an assurance we have from Mr. Sol Krasnoff one of Man ning's expert builders who is in charge of a large force on that building. The .Commission- was very much gratified with what they saw, the magnitude of the work, what has, and is being daily accomplished is simply marvelous. If the representa tives of the counties and towns that have done nothing so far, would run down to Charleston and go over the grounds, then go into the administration build ing, and look over the records of the "concessions department," they will be convinced that the exposition is a huge affair, and one that should have in the build ing erected by the State an ex hibit from every county and town; there should not be an in dustry in the State left out of the picture, nor should there be left out anything that can possibly become a money producer. The representative men in those counties that have not applied for space, will not be doing them selves or their people justice, if * they continue their indifference in the matter. We do not say this to boom up an exhibit sim ply to fill space, that would be unnecessary, because there is now on file applications for space from foreign exhibitors that will utilize every inch, and these people pay good money too, but the people of this State have erected a building for the exhi bition of their resources, and any county or town or individ ual can have a place without a cent of cost, provided the space allotted is used for the showing of articles manufactured, grown, or compounded in this State; the object of which is to adver tise to the world what is possi ble here, and thus invite to come and live amongst us, a class of people who will help us to devel ope our possibilities. The exposition will not only open up on scheduled time, but the exhibition will be a grand one, even grander than its pro jectors at first calculated. The buildings will be superb, and the five-eights of a mile of colonnades containing the government ex hibit will be the grandest dis play that has ever been shown in the South. To give our read ers an idea that something "is doing" in Charleston, the expo sition company have sold the race track concession alone for $35,000, and all of the other con cessions bring a proportionate price, with more applications than can be supplied. If there was not a single exhi bit from any county or town in this State, the space in the building provided by the State could be filled to overflowing with foreign exhibits who would gladly pay for the privilege, but we have a building their, and we are invited to come into it with out co.;t, to carry out thme object of this the graest institution for lettin'g the world know of our existence that has ever been gotten up for us. It is true that this is an unus ually bad year with the farmers, but notwithstanding this, there is not a county or town in South Carolina, but can be represented and should be. We have no hes itency in urging the people to arouse themselves in this mat ter, and if your representative .m wilnt take the nmor in terest, make them stand. aside and get others. If we appear enthusiastic, it is because of what we saw, and every man who has sense enough to appre eiate the value that will be de rived from bringing forward our vast resources from their hiding places, will also be enthused when he goes their and realizes the magnitude of the undertaking, what has been accomplished, and what must be the result in time to come. A WORTHLESS KICK. President Roosevelt has cre ated a furore among the politi cians and newspapers, because he entertained Booker T. Wash ington, a highly educated and cultured negro-an educational leader of his race, a man of high character, and one who has de livered addresses to the National Educational Association. We heard him when the Association met in Charleston, and saw him sitting upon the platform with the distinguished educators, la dies and gentlemen, also the ladies of Charlestou's elite socie ty. Washington if we remember right was the guest of the com mittee at the suggestion of the editor of the News and Courier, and his address was the finest delivered on that occasion. It therefore strikes us that Presi dent Roosevelt in sitting down to dinner with Washington did not put himself in a social equality position any more than did the distinguished committee who - had charge of the National Educational Asso ciation when it convened in Char leston, and this pretended hor ror, to our mind, is straining at gnats and swallowing camels. If President Roosevelt desired Booker Washington as a guest at his table it is alright with us, and none of our funeral, and some of the same people who are kicking up so much dust about the incident, would travel clean to Washington to accept an invitation to dine with the Pres ident, even if he did entertain a negro at his table. President Cleveland who was supposed to be a Democrat entertained at his table a mullato queen with an unsavory character, and every president since the war has had at his receptions negroes as guests. Fred Douglas in his time, was a prominent figure at all of the State functions, and even after he married a white woman, he continued his attend ance at the great functions in the white house. Because President Roosevelt invited and entertained a negro at his table, is no reason why the social door shculd be opened to admit the negro to our dining rooms. There has beea an un necessary amount of temper shown in this incident, not calcu lated to help matters; if there are those who regard a cultured negro entitled to commune with them socially, why let them en joy their tastes to their hearts' content. 'It is different with us down South, where we get a whiff of the coon every day. Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear.

Koester, editor of the Columbia Record has been appointed Collector of Internal Revenue through the influence of Senator McLaurin. Mr. Koester is a Democrat, and when he was editor of the Columbia Register he did valient service for the Reform movement. He was among the strongest advo cates of Tillman, but always a warm personal frien-d of McLau rin. When McLaurin advanced his progressive ideas, Koester was among the first to stand by him, when others who pretended friendship deserted at Tillman's first howl of opposition. Pres ident Roosevelt has carried out his promise to appoint a Repub lican where a suitable one could be found, but if such an one was not presented, the service was more important than party, and he would appoint a Democrat. The Republicans put forward a man for the place and he was about to get the plum, but jeal ousy came along and knocked it from his grasp, this caused a rumpus and exposed to the Pres ident the unfitness of the Repub lican applicants. M c L a u r i n took advantage of the situation to offer a Democrat, and the President accepted him. Of course the opponents of McLau rin will endeavor to make capi tal out of this incident, but if Senator McLaurin can get our federal offices filled with good Democrats, he will be doing the State more service than to sulk and permit these positions get ting into the hands of Republi cans. We congratulate Mr. Koester on his good fortune, and con gratulate President Roosevelt on his efforts to better the pub lic service, and we say hurrah for Senator McLaurin for hav ing the brain to make himself an influential factor at the seat of gtovernment. You know What You Are Taking Whe-n you take Gr-ove's Tasteless hill Tonie because the for-mula is ~lanly printed on every bottle showing that it is simply Iron and Quinine in a places, only high clifis, Iuearly perpen dicular, were to be seen covered with moss, and at some points our boat seemed to be near enough the shore for one to step on, from the boat. Three days sailing from Kobe we anchored at Nagasaki, Japan, having had two days delightful sailing through the inland sea where the scenery was so beauti ful that it formed i'mpressions that never I before had, none half so weird. so majestic. On September the 9th. after our boat had anchored in the bay of Nagasaki, arrangements were made and we were allowed to go ashore. There were no docks for our boat to land at, so we were compelled to lay at anchor some one and a half miles from shore. Mountains some 7 and 8,000 feet could be seen, the city of Nagas aki being about 120,000 in population. Upon my arrival in the city. I found the streets very narrow and only on the street that fronts the harbor could side walks be found. Many nice houses of brick and gray stone were there. The most enjoyment found by the sol diers was a ride in a Rickshaw, two wheels, one seat for one, and one only, and top, with a Jap to pull the vehicle, the fare being ten cents, American mon ey per-hour. We lay at Nagasaki four days, supposing that soon we would be in China, instec.d, upon leaving the city of the Japs, we were under orders for the Philippines. On the 13th, our boat again set sail, and steamed into the China Sea, two davs vovage in these waters will -long be remembered, for never before did I see such a storm. All port holes had to be closed, we were locked in lower deck like sheep. At times the entire ship was under water and the pilot was strapped to his post, the gale lasting some 36 hours. The storm appeared with the sky a blaze with crimson, gold and purple, crashes of thunder such as I never heard before, fierce pelting of rain, the celestial batteries at frequent intervals illumined the surface of the of the white cap waves that were be ginning to roll and rush together with madness. We expec ted each fleeting moment to be our las.:, but Providence was with us. On the 17th. we were again free and happy for now we were in ihe Bay at Manila P. I., soon to be landed and make ready for fighting. I will close my writing for this time, promising to give soon some description of the Philippines. Very Respectfully. E. BONNEAU CLARKE. Co.

Editor The Manning Times: I didn't mean to desert you exactly, but it's a buisy time with us farmers. We farmers is as buisy as a bee in a bucket of tar trying to get together what little crop we have made, and I'm a telling you sir. its a short horse this year shor's you born. It looks like it oughten't to be much trouble to gether a little short crop, but I believe its more trouble to gether a little crop than a big one. It looks like "B" is the only one of your correspondents that remains faithful. Go it "B", we glory in your spunk, I love to hear from you. It is so nice to read the sayings and doings of the people in different parts of the county. We could all be a heap of help and satisfaction to one another, if we could hear from one another every week or so, and hear what's a going on all around. One big trouble with us one gallus farmers, is that we aint interested enough in what our brother farmers and the rest of the country is a doing. It reminds me of an old mule. He just tucks his head down and vows "I'm a going to pull this here load or bust the hame-string'' When you strike a feller like that, he is most sure to be one-sided and selfish. He jus; gets into the old ruts that his dady before him was in, and thinks that's good enough. The stars forbid that I or any body else should ever disparage the ways and the days of our fathers. When can we, especially the older ones, ever forget the days when our fathers was at the helm: when we had somebody to look up to and depend on. Ah! those happy days can never return, but this is a fast age. There's fast doings all around, every where. The trains run faster. In fact there didn't use to be any train. We can make a trip now in one hour that use to take all day. But it aint no use to go to numeration the fast doins. Every thing is fast. About the only thing that aint got any faster is lightening. And I don't believe any of the smart elix will ever improve on that. People are faster and quicker because they live faster. What I was hitting at is that its a fast age and the fellow that stays in the old ruts entirely, will shorely get left in the race that we are all a running. And Mr. Editor, I've been a thinkin on another subject that I reckon some people will think is mighty fast. But as I said before if a fellow these times don't eat fast, work fast, and think fast he wont get his share. This subject that I'm a thinkin on is one that some body has already done a lot of powerful fast thinking on. They've been a thinkin a heap too fast for us farmers. What I'm a talking bout is the tax they make us pay for the priveledge of planting and making tobacco. I don't believe they make us pay for planting it, but they just as well do that as to tax us for sellhng it. cause if wve didn't make it we would hardly sell it. Now one and all, we don't~ want to be unreasonable, for "there's reason in all things." But we do claim that the ware-house men charge an unreasonable price for handling our tobacco, aud it seems like there aint any law to help us along that line. It does seem like among so many big law makers as we have got, there ought to be a few among the number that had back-bone enough to look capital in the face and say "we propose to pass a law for the benefit of the tobacco farmers of South Carolina" Mr Editor, 1 believe you have got pluck enough to do it. Try it, for the saka of your one gallus cousins. There was something said about it once, but for some cause, presumably, unknown to Ithe farmer, it was snowed under. We believe that one of the very happiest hits that the town of Manning could make not for the farmers alone, but for the business interest of the whole town would be to rent one of the ware houses there next season, and buy to bacco, free of all charges. That may sound visionary, one-sided or anything else if you please, but 1 tell you Mr. Editor, if such a move was made, the immence amount of tobacco sold there, and the tremendous volume of trade thrown to the merchants would be surprising to the natives. But we wont ask that much. But we do lay this pi'opersition fairly and squarly and honestly before the merchants of Man ning. Next season, rent one of the ware-houses there, hir'e a competant manager and other necessary- hands to manage the business propperly and make your ware-house charges just enough to pay actual and necessary ex penses and just as sure as you are a living critter, when it becomes noised abroad that Manning has a big lot of CASTORIA For Tnfants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Beught Bears the A certain newspaper in Car leston desires to send out adver tising matter through the coun try newspapers, in the shape of a supplement; as an inducement to get this matter circulated it proposes to print the name of the paper sending it out so that it will appear as a home produc ed suplement. This newspaper is always willing to help along almost any project, but when it comes to distributing advertis ing matter we are not classing such in the charity or patriotic lists. We therefore propose to let the Charleston paper distrib ute its advertisements through some other source, and the news paper that undertakes to send out these proposed supplements will find themselves working for what others get pay for. If these supplements did not contain comme-rcial advertising, w e would take pleasure in sending them out, but as they do, we are in the commercial advertising business ourself, and must have pay for all such matter going to our readers through this medium.

Avoid further exposure and fight the enemy of health and comfort with Perry Davis' Pain killer the family stand-by for sixty years. It conquers a cold in a day. See that you get the right article. There is but one Painkiller, Perry Davis'. The Columbia State is having spasms, because Koester of The Record met with good luck. Had Cleveland appointed Gonzales to a consulship, possibly The Re cord woild have had spasms. Gonzales and Koester are not friends, hence the display of hate on the part of the State.

It is good. Try it. For sala by The R. B. Loryea Drug store. A Clarendon Voice from the Philippines. Editor The Manning Times: Having in the past compiled some of my army life and travels, and having promised to give a description of my trip. I shall begin with my leaving Ft. Sheridan Ill., on August 10th, 1900, with Co. M, 5 Inf. We left over the N. W. R. R., going through the States of Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming. Utah, Nevada and California to San Franscisco. Our trip through the West was a pleasant one, and many strange sights were presented, not soon to be forgotten. The small mounds and hills around South Platte, Neb, were very pretty in their carpet of green grass, while I must not forget the beautiful view we enjoyed of "Buf falo Bill's Ranch." Soon we had fin ished our trip through Nebraska, and were gliding through the State of Wyoming. Most of our trip through this State was through deserts, I care not to make again. We changed on to the Southern Pacific R R. track at Ogden Utah. laying back of the town to the North was a peak of the Sierra Nevada Moun tains almost perpendicular, and some 10,000 feet high, its broad shoulders of red clay and the large rocks hanging along the top and sides was a picture of beauty. Leaving Ogden, our train was pulled by two engines, which by degrees pulled our train through the high and lofty mountains of the Sierra Nevada The mountain scenery was very impressing, and time does not permit a full description, so I must hurry a long. Four days ride on the train found us on the 14th of August at San Francisco. We went in camp at Presido, some three miles from the business parts of Frisco, and at the eastern portion. The commodious campingr grounds were quite hilly, and the pine-trees decorating the hills of the West, while to the East across the bay, high cliffs p resented themselves partly clothed in living green, the indented clay tops, gave enough contrast that a stranger could only admire this portion of the Occident. At night fall when the sun had faded to its night of rest, the gol den moon appeared from behind the hanging clouds, peeptng from over the distant ridge, locked our hearts with love. And when we were in silent sleep the golden rays guided our dreams to everlasting love into the hand of Morpheus.. Awaking to find our hearts free for a days pleasure in the great city of the golden West. The first place for sight-seeing for the soldiers to visit, was "China Town", and so much did I see, to make an at tempt to tell about it, would be a fail I visited the golden gate park, cliff house andI many other noted places, during my stay in the city. I lost no time in seeing all that was to be seen. On the 21st of August we were paid off and we went on board the U. S. Trans port Sherman at high noon for a trip to China, mid the cheers of our many Frisco friends, the motorman pulled the bell-cord, and the conductor yell ed all on board, and there was so much yelling when our boat steamed for open sea, that 1 could not hear myself talk, however, our boat had soon steamed from the docks and in a few minutes we had passed out of sight of our friends, entering through the golden gates ini the broad waters of the Pa cific Ocean. We were bound for China via the great circle, over this route we had the pleasure o:f seeing and viewing part of Alaska; the hardest part of our jour ney aroundl this portion of the world. was the cold wave-my, we almost frozed to death. Before leaving Frisco, we were issured heavy clothing and furs, but with all the furs and clothing. I found it almost impossible to keep warm, only when standing over the grating of the engine room. We man aged to live up to Sept. 6th, when we found our boat at anchor at the city of Kobe, Japan. The weather was warm, and the scenery was beautiful. The city of Kobe, 100.000 in population, is situated at the foot of a large moun tain. The city i-uns a long the coast some 4 or 5 miles. The most important feature of our being at Kobe, was the trip) that lay in wait for us thi-ough the Inland sea. Our boat was compelled to take a pilot fo the trip through that sea: soon we had made the start, and both sides of the sea were high and lofty mountains some 7 or 8000 feet. The mountains were beautiful, for the Japs had the mountain sides built up in terraces. used for the growing of tea. The terraces look like patch quilt work and are to be seen over all the mountains and low lands.

Merchants of Man ning, think about this thing ponder it well, and if you will make the move, we believe it will be not only a lasting benefit to the town. but a God-send to the tobacco farmers of South Carolina.
