The spring term of general sessions opened here last Mfonday morning and was presided over by His Honor Judge C. G. Dantzler. The new judge made an excellent impression from the start, and although new unon the bench he shows the abil ity of a profound lawyer, by the ease in which he has taken hold of his new duties. Charles Glover Dantzler was born March 9th, 1854, near St. Matthews, Orangeburg county, attended Mt. Zion Institute, Winnsboro, Kings Mountain Military school at Yorville, graduated at Wofford college in 1875 and in his class was Dr. L. W. Nettles of Fores ton. December 12, 1876 he married M1iss Laura A. Mo0ss, and served prominently in the legislature from 186 to 1890. He is so highly regarded by the members of his local Bar that they became a working committee to present his qualifications before the General Assembly of 1902, and he was unanimously elected Judge of the First' Circuit. After the formal proceedings in the opening of court Judge Dantzler in a clear and pleasing manner delivered in part the following charge to the grand ury: "There is no inter-regnum with grand juries; they are on duty at all times, during the sessions of courts and while courts are not in session. The obligation rests upon, and remains with, each grand juror in his commu nity to be vigilant for the public good. Whatever appertains to the public wel fare should concern a grand juror. "Your jurisdiction, so to speak, is co-extensive with the limits of your county. You have the oversight and supervision of the public institutions. the public buildings and the public highways of your county. And, at the outset, permit me to call your attention to the condition of your court house. You represent a patriotic and enter prising people, and it seems that there should be an improvement made in your court house: that you should have a building which would reflect the public spirit and patriotism of your fellow cit izens. "In the next place, unless the public highways of your county are in better condition than in many counties, you should see to it that your public high ways are improved. In some sections the highways are not more than one half the width required by law: and, often, telephone poles are almost near enough to be touched with the hand of a person in a vehicle travelling in the centre of a highway. It seems that public convenience and public safety are subordinated to the making of a few bushels of corn and a few pounds of cot ton. Behind the disregard of law, in this particular, is that materialistic spirit of the age which has projected itself into social life and, in many in stances, set up the money standard or the standard of respectability instead of character, in abrogation of human rights and contrary to divine law: It is your duty to notify your County Board ofCommissioners of any dereliction of duty. if any, relating to your public highways and require the members of such board to discharge their duties. You should examine into the manner in whieh the county offices of your county are kept. -Your special dutiles appertain to the conduct of *cour deliberations while court is in session. Your deliberations. gentlemen, should be secret. Each grand juror should have the assurance that what is said in the jury room will not be repeated on the outside, for it is only by a free and unreserved discus sion of matters among yourselves that the public interest can be best sub served and advanced. You should be impartial in the consideration of the bills of indictment. Every citizen should receive the same consideration at your hands.. "You are part and parcel of the ma chinery of the law. No person can be tried in this court unless twelve of your number say that a trial ought to be had. The grand jury system rests upon the necessity of preventing vindictive pros New Century Comfort.

Davis, S. C., March 22. 1902. To the Editor of THE TIMES. DEAR SIR: On my return from Charleston this morning I noticed an article in THE TIMES of March 19th., with headlines; "When He Comes Watch the Fawning of Time Serving Politicians." Had not my name been used in the article referred to I should have paid no at tention to it. If your insinuations about certain politicians needing Senator Tillman's aid is intended for me I desire to disabuse your mind and say to you frankly that I am not nor will I be a candidate for any ottice within the gift of the people in the approaching elec tion, and I am willing to let the people of Clarenzdon decide which one of us has been the most "fawning, time serv ing politician." Now as to the petition; some time ago there were articles in THE MAN NING TIMES and letters published from Senator Tillman, the substance of which the people of the County are familiar, and upon Senator Tillman's offer to come to Manning and address the people the petition was started, and as one of the signers of the said pe tition desire that Senator Tillman be given an opportunity to come before the people, a court as it were. and testi fy. If he is guilty of the charges against him of accepting and pocketing rebates etc., that did not belong to him as well as others who signed the peti tion want to know it and want all the light possible turned on, and Mr. Edi tor, on the occasion of Senator Till man's coming to Manning I think the people will expect to hear from you. At least this is my sentiment. At any rate, Mr. Editor, you are pos itively informed that I will not be a andidate in the coming election. Respectfully, C. M. DAVIS. Whv Hon. C. N. Davis should think we int'ended the article he speaks of, as probably being intended for him we fail to see, because if our memory serves us correctly~ Mr. Davis has here tofore made known to us that under no ircumstances will he be a candidate for office within the people's gift. We therefore say, that his suspicions of our intentions are not well founded. Mr. Davis' name was mentioned in our article, because we regarded the matter a news item: had any other ame been at the head of the petiticn we should have mentioned it. The entioning of Mr. Davis' name as be ing at the head of the petition was a fact. We do not class men of the C. . Davis order as "fawning and time erving politicians,'' because such men ra not in politics for a livelihood. Per sonally we have a very high regard for Mr. Davis. and we would be the last man in the world to purposely give him ffense. So far as the petition is con erned, it is a matter of indifference to us: If Senator Tillman comes here, we expect to reply to any allusions he may ake to us. and if those who have peti tioned "want all the light possible turned on," they will see to it that the Senator will explain what became of the rebates'on whiskey purchases dur ing his administration. They will also decline to be satisfied with abusive de nials, and when our turn comes to be eard, they will see to it that we be given an imnpartial hearing. We think it perfectly right that he come if it is his desire, and if he can convince us that the written evidence which we hold is false, we will publicly rejoice. The petition was presented to us by M~r. Sports, we declined to sign it for several reason, among them, we did not care, under the circumstances, to be a party to an invitation to entertain a guest, and then possibly, when he omes, perform the unpleasant duty of impeaching his character. Were we a "fawning and time- serv ing politician." our sense of the main chance would have forbidden the pub lic positions we have taken. A "fawning and time serving politician" would never run counter the wishes of a man of Tillman's popularity. We realize the difficulties, in the way of coming in contact with the people's idol, and it takes moral courage to do so. We would rather sink into political oblivion, ex pressing our honest convictions, than to be glorified in the cloak of a hypo crite. We have a duty to perform as a newspaper writer, and that duty is to TELL IT as we BELIEVE IT, and when written evidence was placed into our hands we indicted Benjamin R. Tillman with as little fear of the con sequences as if he were the most hum ble character in the State. Is Tillman immaculate? Is he a King, ruling over trembling subjects? Or is he a man, made up of the same mater ial as other men. We know of no law which prevents us from criticizing a public official's record, and this we have done, as we conceived it to be our duty to do. When Senator Tillman comes to Man ning, we hope he will be given a most respective hearing, and that his friends and our friends will come determined to hear his defense upon its merits, and our reply upon its merits. We promise that while we will not be able to dis play the gifts of an orator as perhaps Tillman will, but what we lack in elo quence and oratory, will be made up with argument, reasoning and truth. (EDITOR TIMES.) Pyny-Balsam Believes Right Away When You See it in "The Times" it Is So. We Do Not Oppose, for Opposition Sake. In the issue of THE TIMEs last week we stated that the school trustees who came here to attend the meeting called to consider and devise a plan to make arrangements to carry the school chil dren to the exposition were enthusias tic over the project and were highly in favor of arranging for the trip, even if the funds to be used had to come out of the school funds. It seems from the letters which we have received from some of those trus tees, that, through another publication have been misrepresented. as that con cern made the bold declaration unsup ported by facts. that 'the few trustees who did come last Saturday, came to oppose any movement of the kind." As a rule we give no heed to the dec larations of that publication when they affect us individually, but in this par ticular instance the trustees who were so grossly misrepresented are entitled to place themselves on record. We made the statement that the trustees who came to attend the meeting favored the movement, and the other paper made the statement that the trustees came here " to oppose any movement of the kind." The following letters from three of the trustees show who told the truth: Workman, S. C., March 24, 1902. Editor TIMES:--My attention having been called to an article in The Farmer under the head, -"A Flash," in which the following language is used: "The few trustees who did come last Satur day, came to oppose any movement of the kind." I desire to denounce this statement as false so far as it relates to me. I went to Manning to give my hearty endorsement and approval to the noble efforts being made by our State Senator to devise means to carry the school children to the exposition, and if Clarendon had a few more men like our public-spirited fellow citi zen, the children would be made happy and they would also learn a great deal by such a trip. We believe if the hide-bound kickers who never do an unselfish act would help in this most worthy cause, instead of throwing cbstacles in the way, it would soon be demonstrated that the project is thor cughly practicable. S. W. MCINTOSH. Paxville, S. C., March 22, 1902. Editor THE MANNING TIMES:-The statement in The Farmer relating to the trustees going to Manning on the 15th inst. to oppose the movement look ing to the getting up of a means to carry the school children to the exposi tion so far as I am concerned is not true. I went to Manning to encourage the project as a practical, sensible and patriotic scheme to aid our children along educational lines. I hope yet a scheme will be devised, and I think the people of Clarendon should appreciate the efforts being made by the editor of THE TIMES in behalf of our children. A few public-spirited men to back up the liberal offers made by THE TIMES editor, and the children will be given an opportunity to learn more in one day than they will gather from text books in six months. J. N. BRoWN. Paxville. S. C., March 24, 1902. Editor THE TIMES:-I see a state ment in The Farmer with reference to a meeting of school trustees which was to have taken place on the 15th inst., and which faUed of purpose on account of the inclement weather. The following language is used: "The few trustees who did come last Saturday, came to oppose any movement of the kind." I wish to say as one of the trustees who went that such a state ment is false. I went to Manning to help devise some plan to take the school children to the exposition, and I believe if there is a general pulling to gether all along the line the thing can be accomplished. I further think that the noble efforts being made by THE TM.ES editor is deserving of the sincere commendation of the good people of Clarendon. He beiieves a plan can be devised to carry the children down to the big educational show, and so do I, and I endorse all that he has said upon the subject. T. B. MIMS. The other trustee who attended the meeting was Mr. J. S. Evans, and, al though we have not received any letter from him, we assert and will be sub stantiated by Mr. Evans, that he is heartily in favor of the proposed trip and that he came to Manning to lend his aid and encouragement to the scheme.-ED.
