Our farmers have for years, been looking for ward to the day when the county seat would reach the point where it would become of commercial importance sufficient to make it a strong competitive point. That day has arrived. Manning from a commercial standpoint is the equal of much larger towns: this is attested by the commercial men who are constantly travel ing, and who have opportunities for keen observation. The cred it of our merchants is first class. and the character of their mer chandise is equal to any town in the State. Goods can be bought in Manning at advantageous prices, and there is a general catering to the trade. This has not always been so, but since new blood has been infused into 1 the business methods, live, ac tive, 'competition upon intelli gent business principles has re sulted, and the people have been 1 benefitted. But our draw back may be attributed to the im proper attention to the people's i principal product-cotton. Our , business men have not heretofore looked close enough to their own interests, and have per- 1 mitted other markets to reap benefits which should be ours. The competition has not been sharp - enough, and whether there was just ground for the complaint or not, the fact is, Manning lost lots of business be cause the farmers believed they were. not getting full market price for the product which cost them so much toil in a scorching< ~sun-they believed that Man ning's cotton market was con trolled by a* monopoly, simply:j because there were so few buy- 1 ers, and they, governed by a foreign buyer. We say, whether a the farmers were right in theirr surmises or not, makes no differ ence, the effect was that they 1 carried to other markets what1 should have come here, and this town lost that much business,] and every line wasr effected. The 1 question is, shall this condition 1 continue? Under the old busi ness methods, the disposition was 'to keep away stores, but by a practical demonstration it hast been proven, the more stores the1 more trade, and just so will it be2 with cotton buying; let Manning a have one buyer, only a small proportion of Clarendon's cotton will come, but have a number of active buyers and our streetsi will be white with the fleecy:] staple.1 The cro~p bids fair to be good,i and it is to the interest of every merchant here to begin at once corresponding with the cotton, factories and importers to send1 buyers here, or appoint agencies to induce the cotton to this mar-' ket, our merchants should make.i contracts with mills as they do ] in other: places, nothing should be'left undone, that will tend to inbrease the. number of bales] brought here. All this stuffa ibout .freight rates is bosh, if, there. exists a difference in the freight rate get together and confer with the' railroads for a remedy. Take advantage of the line of steamers soon to be put on Santee river, and let the rail roads understand that if they want to haul Clarendon's cotton, they must give this point a rate the equal of Sumter. If there are any obstacles in the way of Manning, the business men must< blame themselves for not going< to work early and intelligently to overcome them. Now is the time, the iron is hot, and if our business men will strike now, and all strike together, Manning will pay as much for cotton as] Sumter, and save the people money on their purchases. Some people say that our ex posure of the methods here will he town." We will yield *greater interest and love ning than we have,and it se of this love and inter are constantly hammer-) y at our people to wake up anul join in the competitive race. If our business people - choose to be indifferent, and ex pect the people to come to them without any effort, they are mis-. taken, and the sooner they real ize it the better will it be. '-Hurt the town" to expose its short comings, we think not, but to;: the contrary, it has the effect of 2 stirring things up to a greater: endeavor, and the activity at tracts trade. We regard it a part of our bus-t iness to praise that which is praise worthy, advise where we think advise needed, and de nounce that which we believe to be against the interest of theI TAME. It is very evident from what we can learn from the campaign reports, the people are not near is much interested in the politi :al tourists, as the politicians ire themselves. The attendance >utside of Walterboro where andidate Heyward received an >vation, has been exceedingly small, and the speakers have been doing the same stunt they started with at the opening. The speeches are very much the same. and the newspapers might save space by saying that "Col onel So-and-So's speech of today was the same as yesterday's.' Col. James H. Tillman has been aking some jabs at Colonel Talbert, and continues from day to day to rub it in, but Colonel Talbert does not seem to allow it worry him, depending, we suppose, upon what he regards Tillman's bad repute. It mat bers not if every charge that has been published against "Jim' Tillman is true, if he convinces the masses that Talbert's Con gressional career has been one of drawing pay and doing no work, it may not elect Tillman, but it will injure Talbert. There is no doubt Colonel Tillman is a very plausible speaker, and he has a way of putting his oppo nents in embarassing positions by creating impressions, wheth sr well founded or not, that have their effect. The Columbia State alleged that while Tillman was president of the Senate, he was discourteous to the members >f the body; at the meetings illman scores heavily against that allegation, by asking the Senators present if he had ever been discourteous to them. It outs the Senator in an embar issing position, because, while Dolonel Tillman was not dis :ourteous to him "personally," ret, he had his feelings ruffled probably, a number of times by the treatment received from the 'ands of the presiding officer. We have no idea that The State mdeavored to make it appear that illman singled out Senators to treat them rudely, but that he would inject provoking remarks which were not proper in render ng his decisions; it matters not vhat the State meant to convey, Tillman is making capital out of t, and submits the answers from he Senators as proof that The State has slandered him. Colonel Talbert has not, so far, ;hown any signs of vim and fire: whether he is waiting to get Till nan in the section where both .re well known we do not know, yut we do k-now that there are nany people surprised that he ias not turned upon his adver ;ary and prove the incorrectness >f his statements, and then ex ose to public view the black ~pots on Tillman's record. Go ar Tillman has been, not only he aggressor, but a challenger, md Talbert has not come to the ;cratch. It is well known that 'albert is a powerful speaker Ld a hard man to handle; it was ie who fought and defeated the ate Hon. George D. Tillman,the rather of Col. "Jim" Tillman. n that battle both struck hard >lows, and since that time Tal >ert has gained much from ex erience, therefore his mild and oft answers nowv are not under ;tood, but may be it is the calm hat comes before a storm. In ;he meantime Heyward, who is ~egarded by those who know him el, as the highest type of a ~entleman, a record pure and ~potless, a magnetic personality Lnd a captivating speaker, is go ng along winning applause, gar ands and votes. The develop nents so far shows the fight to e one between Heyward, Tal yert and Tillman. with Tillman ;aining on Talbert and Hey w'ard widening his lead on ;he two by capturing the ;ote the other candidates who are regarded "not in t " are fast losing. Just how ong this condition will exist is aard to tell: it is liable to change my time,because there are many ike ourself who are non-parti ;an, with no favorites, and are waiting to pick our choice when ve hear them speak. Deafness Cannot be Cured >y local applications. as they cannot, reach the liseased portion of the ear. There is only one ava to cure deafness. and that is by constitu ojial remedies. Deafness is caused by an in lamed condition of the mucous hmn; of the ~ustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflam d you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear ng, and when it is entirely closed deafness is he result, and unless the inflammation can be aken out and this tube restored to its normal ,ondiion.hearing will be destroyed forever ; nine asesut of ten are caused by catarrh. which is iothing but an inflamed condition of the mu Wes wil cive One Hundred Dollars for any ase of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can lot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

He is looking for t job on the canal commission. Read it in a Newspaper. George Schaub, a wvell known Ger nan citizen of New Lebdinon, Ohio. is a :onstant reader of the "D'Dayton V olks :eitung. He knows that this paper tims to advertise only the best in its :olumns. and when he saw' Chamrber an's Pain Ban advertised therein for ame back, he did not hesitatte in buy ng a bottle of it for his wife, who for ight weeks had suffered with the most errible pains in her- back and could get ao relief. He says: "After- using the ?ain Balm for a few days my wife said o me, 'I feel as though born anew,' td before using the entire contents >f the bottle the unbearable pains had mntireiv vanished and she could again ke up her household duties." He is cry tankful and hopes that all suffer nglikewise w~ill hear of her wonderful cover. This valuable liniment is for 'iale by T T2 B. Lorye Dr Store, The Atlantic Beach hotel on Sullivan's Island opened up last Saturday with most promising prospects. The management is far superior. under the Argyle Hotel Company, to any the hotel has had heretofore. Captain Thomas Wilson, with his dis cerning eye, saw from the vast amount of improvemeits being piessed forward by the United States government and the char acter of the officers' quarters, that Sullivan's Island will be come the greatest military post on the Atlantic beach, and nee essarily a very attractivc social centre. Those conditions de mand that the thousands of peo ple interested in the army and navy all over the continent be accommodated. He has, there fore, taken charge of the Atlan tic Beach hotel, equipped it in first class style, put a service in it second to none and is now ready to receive guests. It was our pleasure to spend last Sun day and Monday at tliis hotel, and we expect to retu::n. The serf is great and the ocean breezes are invigorating. People seeking rest can find it there: those seeking pleasure can pick it up there in whole bunches:4the broken down in mind and body can get relief, sleeplessness cured, appetite restored; in fact 1 it is the greatest place to restore I health we know of. One can go to Sullivan's Island and have everything that can be obtained at the most famous resorts for a much less cost, it is one of the most inexpensive summer re sorts. The hotel is conducted in an up-to-date manner, and every attention given to guests. Sailing, fishing, bathing, sleep ing, eating, music and fun are the principle products of the Atlantic Beach hotel, and every body who can should turn sea ward this summer. 1No Substitute Wanted. No' I did not ask for a bottle any cheaper, or twice as large, or one made by yourselves. I did ask for and will not have any substitute for Perry Da vis' Painkiller: I have used it, my fath er used it and I would not be surprised I if my grandparents did so too; there is to imitation that can equal it.

CLASS DISTINCTIONS. rhey Go Almost Dowvn to the Very Bottom of Society. Some sort.of class feeling is, we be lieve, inherent in human nature. Peo ple often speak as though these de nmarcations existed only among the aiddle and upper classes, but such is aot the fact. Indeed it is very far .rom the fact. No more misleading abels than "the classes" and "the asses" were ever invented. There ire no masses, rightly speaking. Class listinctions go almost down to the bot tom-not quite, of course, because :hore is always a residuum who :hrough their fault or their misfortune aave neither the pride nor the imag .nation to soit themselves. Money is not an absolute criterion of ;ccial position. Character, in so far is it is reflected in propriety of be avior, counts for a great deal. A rowdy family sink directly, though :hey may have money to waste, and a respectable widow may retain her su ?eriority in the face of grinding pover :y. The acme of good manners, the -ery badge of gentility, is to be quiet," never to let the sound of nirth, quarreling or lamentation pro ,eed out of your dwelling. This sign of social distinction is ap >reciated down to -the very bottom. )n the upper rungs of the social lad ler we should say that those social listinctions which can be defined at til rest upon birth, money and brains. 'mong the poor they rest upon money tnd manners, and the latter, alas, are, )elow a certain wage, woefully de xendent upon the former.-Spectator. Jonah and the Whale. There is nothing in the original texts )f the Bible to show that the creature hich we are told swallowed Jonah 'as really the same animal we call a 'whale" in this day and age of the world. The word translated into both :he Septuagint and the New Testament vas the Greek word "Katos," which neans simply a sea monster, and this word was the one used by our Lord in is reference to the account of Jonah's exploit. So far, therefore, as the He )rew or Greek words are concerned, he monster may have been a shark, a ;ea serpent or some other uncanny den zen of the deep. Hence there is nothing incredible in he statement that Jonah, upon being brown into the sea, was quickly over aken by some water monster and wallowed without suffering mutila ion. To Biblical students it is a well :nown fact that a vessel sailing from oppa to any Spanish port must pass hrough a section swarming with a spe ies cf shark called a "sea dog." The yea dog has a throat large enough to wallow fair sized men.-St. Louis Re >blic. No Longer Than Your Hand the spot in your back directly affc ad by lumbago.
