On next Tuesday is the pri mary, and we desire to direct at tention to the necessity of every voter going to the polls and cast ing his vote as a free white man. He should resent any interfer ence, dictation, or bribe, wheth er the bribe be money, whiskey or anything else. There is a way some people have of impos ing on men who are unable to read and write; they will pretend to prepare tickets for them. as directed, when the fact is they deceive the voter. A man who cannot read will do well to have his ticket prepared by a man who he knows will not deceive him. The executive committee in putting a stop to candidates vot ing except where their names are enrolled, intended to require candidates to stay at their clubs, instead of going to other clubs to watch voters. We have heard that a certain candidate has sent word for his name to be enrolled on a certain club, that he would be there on the day of election. If we were a voter in that club, an found this or any other can didate tiere, even if we had in tended to vote for them, we would change and vote and work openly against them. We regard it an insult for a man to watch us, and we should certainly as sert our manhood by openly do ing all we can against any can didate who leaves his own club to work at another since the ac tion of the Democratic Commit tee. The white men of Claren don have the intelligence and the manhood to vote as they please and on next Tuesday is the day for them to teach poli ticians. a good and wholesome lesson in decency. Pay no attention to reports, two years ago, the telephone wires were kept hot carrying all kinds of reports which were false,and intended to be injuri ous to the other side; these re ports were not sent out by can didates, they were sent out by -men who were interested in be half of a candidate. We know that there is an organized effort against the writer, that will do all in their power to encompass his defeat. We know already some of_!deir plans, and if they fipAfat they cannot beat him he rwise the executive commit te ilbe depended on for tech nicalities. On Thursday after the primary the executive com mittee meets and it is the duty of every committeeman to be present, if he is unavoidably de tained, he ghould give a written proxy to a reliable man. There must not be any trickery, the people demand fair play, and propose to have it. We also understand that there will be a lot of voters brought to Manning from another club for the purpose of swelling the vote for one of the candidates for the senate against the writer, to have its influence in the second primary to create the impression. that the writer was beaten at home, but it won't work, that trick was played to elect dele gates to the county convention, and the people are on to it. Let the drove come on and fill the boxes here if they can, the regu lar voters at this place will make somebody sick, and teach them that people had better stay whewe they belong. On the day of election the rum holes will be spotted, and a sharpblook out will be kept on the men who are dishing out whiskey. There is a commit tee whose duty it is to look out for just these' things, and for double voting, and for dishonest methods generally. This com mittee is composed of substantial citizens who are pledged to pros ecute the keepers of places where whiskey is dished out on election day, under the "main taining of a nuisance" act, and to prosecute and expose any and all violations of law which go to make the primary dishonest. This is no bluff, but a real thing, and our mentioning it, is simply to keep down anything which might have the appearance of wrong orunfairness. Itis a known fact that whiskey was used in this town at the last primary, and those that used it claimed it was the other side, we do not know only from hearsay which side used it, and are inclined t: believe that both sides in accus ing each other told the truth, butin this election we shall know. The writer is a candidate for the state sen'ate, and he can place his hand upon his hear-t and swear that he never in all of his life attempted to give a man whiskey for his vote. He never in his life offered a man money for his vote, nor has he in any way attempted to offer a bribe. If he cannot be elected without the use of money and whiskey he will stay at home. had to be purchased with whis- sion key or money. He would scorn app the position of senator, if he had Sen to purchase it by slandering his in s opponents. He would scorn the ing position of senator if it had to be purchased by blackening his op- p ponents characters. If he can- spe not be elected to the senate up- and on his merit, then he prefers the gen honor to go to one more merito rious. of We know that the opposition Geo are shrewd calculators as well ea as manipulators, and we urge hou the friends of the writer to see -vhc to it that no stone is left unturn- :mc ed to bring out the full vote of -o t the people. When that is done, u the candidate having received a majority honestly counted is tb - oth people's choice. alit - - --~-- .tha It has been customary for THE id TIMES to publish just before the es election the editors choice for T State officers, United States but Senator, and. congressman, but abo for good and sufficient reasons w o we will refrain from doing so case this time. This will keep our op- thoi ponents from having the excuse ovei for making political capital. We sto do not propose to lay ourself man liable to the accusation of trying of p to dictate to the voters. In the and county election we have no can- Sen didates any more than any other so-e citizen; we propose to vote for com those we believe to be the best of C men qualified for the positions fo they seek. gan . -0Othe lovli $106 Reward, $100.

Now About To Close-Something Of yea, The Life Of This Remarkable Man, Who, By Ability Of 'Highest Order, Has for Forged So Rapidly To The Front. [Advertisement.] The purpose of our Democratic pri- T mary is to give the people an opportu- whc rity to judge for themselves of the ge character, ability and fitness of those (e aspiring to position, so that the voter ley, may be able to cast his ballot intelli- and gently. i *In the canvass now about to close in fore the State for the United States Senator- grai ship, there are practically no differ- in tI nces in platform. The question to be der lecided by the people is that of per- hon< sonal fitness. Who of the six, aspiring' war to this position, is most capable of rep- higi resenting South Carolina in the United of G States Senate with credit to himself *nel and honor to his State? Car There is no doubt that since the can- the rass began, George Johnstone, of New- thi ber~zy, has gained remarkable strength new and made most favorable impressions -M n the voters. In fact, it is conceded stun Ihat of all the candidates, he has cou gained most, this being admitted on allet tiands. f tn It may be well to inquire into the oft record and to study something oi the crat life of this man, who, by sheer force of the haracter and ability of the highest Uni rder, has forged so rapidly to the front. lina George Johnstone is a son of the late was Chancellor Job Johnstone, whose opin- one ions rank in literary ability and legal laws erudition with those of of the greatest elec thancellors and judges the State has of ti ever produced. The son has inherited fon in great measure the intellect of the smn ather and that intellect has had the his advantage of thorough training in the the best schools of this country and Europe. of tI In 1877 he was elected to the Legis- he, Lature, in which body he served for cor eight successive years, retiring volun- ta Garily pre In1890 he was elected to congress .he ~ rom the Third District. He was chair- Judg :nan of the committee of Privileges and the lections, from which Mr. Crisp was rac elected speaker, and Mr. Johnstone Di was one to whom Mr. Crisp looked con- Hou stantly for assistance.- evei No man can show a cleaner record. well Eew can show a more remarkable re-| alw lord. No man has sought more to do !libe: what he could in the interest of and for- rans the welfare of his people. In times abo~ like these there is a demand for men, th8e9 not time servers: statesmen, not politi- 19 eians. Ther-e are momentuous ques- lant tions to be settled, and above all, do we corn need men who are able to grapple with and these questions in the National Con- ttn gress, and to do so intelligently and T'he "with a wisdom and foresight born of of ti the statesman. The people of the duct State are now in the enjoyment of their reui sober judgment, they are not torn by erat party strife and factional feeling. The P appeal is made to this sober judgment whi' in the selection they will be called upon rich to make for the highest office in their and gift. It is their duty to measure up and the candidates by the standard which one ever~y true Carolinian should set for jud4 such a position: character, fitness, in- sert tellect, ability to stand up shoulder to inti shoulder, arm to arm, hand to hand, bt intellect to intellect, with any member of that body. The friends of Col.

The Texas Cotton Seed Crushers' ssociation at a late meeting held in exas, passed a resolution confirming hat the high price of beef, was due tO shortage in seed products. The fol wing taken from the Cotton and 'arm Journal, throws some light upon his subject: "The rules adopted by the Texas otton Seed Crushers' Association puts in line with the other associations of similar kind in the South. It is prob ble that there will be no more invas >n of Mississippi and Alabama by 'exas mills in search of seed. "The cattlemen who were expected ere to expostulate over their alleged ad treatment during the past year ave not put in appearance as yet, and iay not. The crushers do not seem oncerned, over the threat of some of he cattlemen to operate their own ills. The fact that the Swift Coin any has recently purchased half a ozen mills at different points was .ot commented on by any of the crush rs to whom It was mentioned, save to he effect that Swvift would probably e able to use more feed than those ills would provide. "A resolution was adopted deprecat ig 'any act of congress that may tend reduce the price of cattle and hogs.' nd alleging that the present high 'rice of meat Is due 'to a shortage in eed products.' " This would seem to show there were wo sides to this question of high beef nd that in so far as Texas is concerned he price of beef is bound to vary with he price of cotton seed hulls and cot on seed meal. In proportion as the rass area of Texas has diminished, he cattle-raisers have been compelled o buy feed stuffs, and the only avail ble feed-stuffs in quantity is cotton eed hulls and cotton seed meal. Hulls ave been selling within the last year r two in Texas as high as $14 a ton. his means that the meat supply in he future is largely dependent upon he cotton seed oil business, and that he people of the Southeastern States ;ill probably go much more extensively ato the business of raising cattle for .eef purposes after they find out as uch about the values of hulls and neal as the Texas cattle man has o'nd out by the necessities of the ase. It would seem as though the astern farmer now has the advantage f the Texan in raising cattle for beef surposes and in handling cattle for .airy purposes. All the cotton seed products that are eeded for cattle raising, and compe iton with other marketil can be had ight at home through the Southern ~otton Oil Company of the Carolinas nd Georgia, through any of its mills r its headquarters at Columbia, S.
