A second attempt to get the school trustees of Clarendon county together to consult with reference to devising a plan to carry the school children to Charleston, failed last Saturday on account of the down pour of rainand we will not make another attempt to bring them together, as the time is getting shorter and the prospeet for some defi nite action on their part is not at z 11 encouraging. We have made every inducement to arouse in terest in this matter, and in re turn we get words and letters of encouragement, but words and letters do not answer any practi cal purpose so far as taking the school children to the Charles ton and West Indian Exposition is concerned: what we want is that they go. We do not care one rap how they get there, so they get there. Thus far, we are not at all encourged with the prospect of any official action, and if the childreu ever go it will depend upon arranging with the railroads for a special train, the money to be raised by contribu tion or the children pay their own way. We have already offered to contribute to a fund to charter a special train to carry the chil dren over ten years of age and we keep the offer good. Capt. D. W. Alderman was in ,Manning, and in speaking of this project to take the children to Charleston he told us that he ap proved of our efforts and agreed with our judgement that the children will be greatly benefited by such a trip, and kindly offer ed to help us in anyway he could. He authorized us to say that if we succeeded in getting a special train, he would bring on his road the Salem children to suit any schedule made, and would carry them back on their return from Charleston free of charge. We also have a very encourag ing letter from Capt. Thomas Wilson president of the North Western Railroad, which we herewith publish with the only comment, that we thank him for his kind references to ourself. and hiis generous public spirit: Cades, S. C., March 24th. 1902. Hon. Louis Appelt, Manning, S. C. DEAR Sm:-My attention has been called to the editorial in your paper of the 19th inst., regarding staking the school children of Clarendon county to the Charleston Exposition. Your ef forts in this connection are very com mendable, and I take this opportunity of congratulating you or your liberality. in offering to contribute to a fund for this purpose. A number of the chil dren now attending the schools in Clar endon county might never again have an opportunity of seeing an exhibition like there is in Charleston now, and I certainly think that you are entitled to credit for suggesting that the children be allowed an opportunity of going to Charleston. I write you this letter as I am aware that there are a number of schoolson the North Western Railroad. I am desirous of assisting you in your efforts to give the children a pleasant trip and I take this opportunity of of -fering you my assistance in this matter. I will be very glad to co-operate with you and will assist you in securing a 'very low rate and obtaining a special. train for this purpose. I would suggest that you request the Atlantic Coast Line to put on an extra car on their train No.59 between Sumter and Char leston, if that will be sufficient to ac commodate the schools from Manning and Harvin I will run a special train for this purpose, starting at Paxville and connecting with the Coast Line at* Wilsons Mill and will endeavor to bor row from the Atlantic Coast Line the number of coaches necessary for this purpose, if you will advise me about how many coaches will be required. I will be pleased to co-operate with you in your noble work an d render you any assistance igainy power. I would sug gest tha~youi take this matter up with Mr.-H. M. Emerson G. P. A. of the At lantic Coast Line and advise me as to the result of your correspondence with him and I will cheerfully use my in fluence to get Mr. Emerson to put as low rate in effect as possible on this oc casion. Yours truly, THOMAS WILSON. President. Now, why cannot a few public spirited citizens of Clarendon come together and make this scheme a success. It can be done and will be done if we will only give the matter proper con sideration. There are some pe ple constantly talking about furthering educational interests, and if these people do not take some active interest in the mat ter of getting Clarendon's chil dren to Charleston, then we shall ever believe their interest in the children is a lip-service, and not in response to the dicta tions of the heart. Fellow citi zens? here is an opportunity to lend aid to a worthy cause. This is an appeal to you to do some thing which will leave its mark for good on the rising generation. This is to urge you to untie your purse strings and contribute to a cause for the bettering of the coming manhood and woman hood, who are to fill our places in time. If we can get sufficient responses we will not only contribute in cash, but we will make a .personal appeal to the railroad authorities for a In order to save time we would ask school teachers or trustees throughout the county to ascer tain and write to us at once the information as to how many children from their section over ten years of age would go if a train is secured. We must have this information before making the arrangiements. for a train, in order to know how many coaches to apply for. Re member Captain Alderman will convey the Salem children to Alcolu, and a schedule will be arranged on Captain Wilson's road to Wilsons. Get us all the information you can immediately, and we will make a final effort to accomplish our purpose. The chairman of the National Democratic Executive committee Senator J. K. Jones, the man. who Senator John L. McLaurin refuses to be led by. has been defeated for re-election in the Arkansas Democratic primary. Chairman Jones was made the leader for the Democracy by the combined votes of Democrats. Populists, and Silver Republi cans, and by his hypritical pro fessions against corporations, trusts and combines the party was twice beaten. Jones and his versatile political comrades used their power to discredit Senator McLaurin with his people, be cause he has the manhood to fol low his own honest convictions and not be carried about in the vest pocket of .t leader whose politics' is questionable. Mc Laurin refused to follow Jones. and now comes the Democrats of Arkansas and by their votes in a Democratic primary refuse to again follow Jones also. These white Arkansas Democrats by their action, confirm McLaurin's opinion of Jones, and so will the Democrats in every State, if they are not buncoed out of the privi lege of giving an expression. If our coming primary is free and fair we will then know what the people think.

Editor The Manning Times: In your last issue of THE TIMES, you invite me to express my views in re gard to the proposal to annex Fulton and Calvary townships to Sumter coun tv. If there is any disposition to do this by the people of this section. I am not aware of it. as I have been among them and conversed with many citizens of the community since my return from Columbia. and the subject has not in any way been referred to by those I have come in contact with. If the idea had taken hold seriously in the minds: of the people, I take it for granted I~ would have heard it discussed or at least alluded to. For this reason, I have given the tratter no thought! whatever, and it wrould not only be premature, -but under these cir-cum-' stances, unwise in n.e to agitate a ques tion I have no reaso2 to think is serious l considered by the people of thes townships. I -.ill say however that in my judgement, should the people ever bring the propositioa to earnest consid eration, they should be careful on what; grounds and for what reasons they adopt such a step. Mere sentiment er personal expedi ency in a movement of such impor tance as this, should be entirely ignor ed, and only a necessity arising from complications beyond their control. and which they are unable to remove. would justify such action. The reasons assigned in a corresoondence I noticed some weeks ago in tne papers for any proposed change, were first: that the railroad facility for going to and from the county seat was so defective as to make that kind of transit useless to those living around here, and in the: second place. that the highways have been so neglected by those in authori-; ty over the chaingang as to make travel by dirt road both irksome and difficult. This is undoubtedly so. but I now, have filed in the otfice of the Railroad: Commissioners a petition for a better: schedule which, if acted favorably upon., would aire us what is wanted on that line. It will take some weeks perhaps to hear from it, but I have hopes that something will be effected to relieve the situation. As a matter of course., the case of railroad commaunication with Sumter, turns the tide of trade and! travel to that city, much of which would be directed to Mlanning if a bet ter opportunity of going there was al lowed us. This fact and consequently the bringing in touch the people of this vicinity an.1 Sumter. is no doubt what has instigated some to advocate a change, but should relief be given by the Railroad Commissioners, there would be no justification on this ground. I do not pretend to knowv what the peo ple desire as to a change, but I am con fident that if the Railroad would give the citizens of this region such accom modation as they wish and have a tight to demand, much of the disquieting feeling (if any exists) would disappear. In addition to the imperfect means of! railroad transit to Manning, I will take' occasion to say here, that another hard ship the people of the Western portion of the county have been subjected to. and which no doubt they chafe under. is the very little benefit they have ex periencedi from the work of the chain gang of the county. I do not attribute this blame to any cne individual and the Supervisor does what he thinks his duty, in all probability, but there should be a requirement that the chaingang shall work in each township of the county as many days as the mileage of the public roadls int'ie township would entitle them to. If the supervisor was required to visit e'ach township and perfect the impossible points of the highways leaving the rest of the road to be attended to )y those liable to road duty, it would s;atisfy all sections! and diseminate the work mor-e equita bly. The better por-tion of the roads A Valuable Medicine fo: Coughs and Colds in Child:-en. I have not the slighta-t hesitancy in recom mending Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to all who are suffering from coughs or colds." says Chats. Si. Cramer. Esq.. a well known watch maker of Colombo. Ceylc n. -It has been some two years since the city dispensary tirst called my attention to this valuable medicine and I have repeatedly used it tEnd it has always been beneficial. It has cured -ne quickly or all chest colds. It is especially effective for children and, seldom takes more than one bottle tc cure them of hoarseness. I have persuaded many to try this valuable medicine, and they are all as well pleased as myself over the results." For sale by The R. B. IUnryen Drug store. inae M1. L~or .ztld be looked after later. The little 6vork lone in this section is a source of: just complaint by the citizens. who feel that they have received less henefits rrom this institution than many other parts of the countv. Without knowing as I have said before, that any real de ire to connect with Sumter county exists in the townships referred to, I assume that should there be, the cause. lavs in the two items I have explained above. These may not be valid reasons, but they should be pointed out and c-onsidered so that a remedy may be applied before this or any other section of our county may think it has a grier adee sutlieient to effect a change so radical as the one that is said to be in contemplation. The splendid work done on the swamps of Black river, is evidence of' what can be accomplished by the chain gang. The people of thic section con cede that the work there was properly the first to be attended to. and are as much satisfied at its completion as those who enjoy the use of those highways. Now that this has long since been fin isbed.we had hoped that before this the supervisor. would have given his at tention to roads in other sections of the county equally dependent on his exer tions. It is absolutely necessary for frequent -isits from this official for more reasons than one. The public highways have been encrouched upon in some instances to such an extent that two vehicles canndt pass each other without one of them going over plowed ground. This should be pro hibited-I mention this matter of de feetive highways, and dwelt somewhat on it. because it was assigned as one reason for the contemplated change, and with no railroad accommodation. it is necessary for those going to and from the county seat to travel across country. If the people of Manning will aid in securing a good schedule, our combined efforts may accomplish much. H. B. RICHARDSON. Fulton. S. C.. March 22nd., 1902. "Slab's" Ruminations. Editor The Manning Time.s: It'll been a good while since I had time to let you hear from this part of the world. The fellows around here ain't making no big blow, but they are going ahead. scratching for another crop. I am mighty glad to see that nearly all the farmers are making bet ter preparation and are going to fix off the corn crop better than usual this year. It takes a year like last year to bring we wool-hatters to our senses and if last year's experience in a short corn crop, and a bad crop year generally will have the effect of making us plant more grain and less cotton, it will be a Cod-send. the greatest blessing we have had since freedom. And now just look ahere, Brother Wool-Hatters, let's make soine corn this year. I know that bid seasons often cut us out of a full corn crop, but bad seasons never has and never will cut us out of as much corn as the lack of a little manure and elbow-grease. A crop with plenty of stuff to it will stand more dry wether, more wet wether and more of anything else that can come than a crop without anything to help it along. As a gen eral thing we farmers have been just letting the corn crop take care of itself, but that won't do any longer. We will never be worth anything and will al ways be toating around the tail end of creation and will always be the dump ing ground for the Western corn spec aator if we don't make our own corn. We can do it Why don't we do it? Let every farmer take five acres of good landl, plant it in corn and work and marnure that one piece of corn every time it needs it and see what a difer ence it will make in your corn pile next fall. Manure all your corn if you can, but there ain't many that does that, so that's why I say manure five acres. There ain't 'a farmer in Clarendon county but what can make enough corn to do' him if he will only try right. Brothers, if we can and won't. what ought to be done to us? Just let us alone and don't pass sentence, judge. them Western fellows 'll do that. All us farmers is in the same boat and there ain't one in fifty that will take good. sound advice, if it's free: but you just let some smart fellow go aronnd through the country offering good advice to farmers and charge a fee tor it. How many would bite? Every one that bites ought to .be told. "Go home, mind your own business and make plenty of corn." We have a new enterprise in our com munity this year in the shape of a large saw mill plant, plaining mill and dry k-ill owned by Messrs. D. M. Bradham & Son. They bought the old Pack place on the eastern banks of Beer C'reek and at once proceeded to busi ness, and business with them fellows means an enormous quantity of push. Ain't it wonderful what a good size pile of push and energy with a little money scattered along can do. From the way them fellows is sawing logs, aud scat tering cotton seed meal and aseid around, that dead poor old p lace ain't going to be a "dead poor" place much longer.

The officer, after a moment's hesitation, handed his own cigar to the Frenchman and look ed on with a smile of resignation at the latter's frantic efforts to get a light. "You are French. I believe?" said the officer. "Not only French. but from Tou louse:" "Is this your first visit to Russia?" "Yes." "Ah, now I understand why you did not salute the tall gentleman in uni form who was with me when you ask ed me for a light." "The tall gentleman? I did not notice him. Who is he?"

Freight trains they call goods trains, conches are car riages, conductors are guards, engi neers are drivers, trucks are boggles and freight cars are wagons. The British always say station instead of depot, and In that they have the bet ter of us. Rails they call metals and tracks permanent ways. They do not get their tickets at a ticket office, but at a booking office, and the smokestack of the locomotive is to them the chim ney.

One day Fox, looking out of the upper window, descried two men watching the house and waiting.

On this oc casion the thing held on so persistently and firmly that I could not for some time free my finger. At last I was obliged to call some one to get it off by forcibly opening its mouth.
