We have no disposition to notice the

adopt the necessary means to get rid of
them. There are some who make a
show of noise, until they attract the
attention of those they are barking at.
then they tuck their tails between their
legs and sneak out of sight. Decency
forbids our attention to such game.

notes for security. He being a s:ranger
to i. and S45 a scarce commodity. we
eelined to accommodate him. He
went on to Sumter and on the complaint
f ir. Horace Harhy he was arrested.
He disc( unted notes signed Peter
Jones. Sn..tter Richardson and others,
which turna' out to be forgeries, and
when arresteti Thomas wanted to hu sh

We are told that some extraordinary

The following is the communication
;ent to committee:
Manning. S. C.. Sept. 11. 190-.
ro the Democratic Executive Committee of
Clarendon County:
Jentlemen:
Information has reached me of foul play in
he primary election held September 9th and
rom which election you are. as guardians of
he party. called upon this day to tabulate the
turrs and declare the elections. etc.
I was a candidate in said election and in jus
ice to myself and supporters I feel it my duty
o petition you to compare the polling lists of
he Manning Farmers' Platform. Davis Station.
ros Roads. White and Doctor Swamp clubs.
tnd iscertain if there was or was not frauds
-ommitted by men voting in several of these
lubs--repeating by going from one club to the
>ther.
My information is that numbers of men voted
it Dbvis Station. then came and voted at Man
ling. :hen went and voted at either the White
ir Do tor Swamp clubs. I petition you to com
Jire these polling lists in order that the Dem
>eritie voters of Clarendon may know whether
>r not there is just ground to suspect that foul
>lav was resorted to.
As a candidate I hereby demand that the _Ex
eutive Committee make a thorough investiga
ion by taking up the polling lists (not club
ols) and compare them to see whether or not
here has been any repeating.. If repeating has
>een done it is my purpose, in the interest of
>ure and honest elections, to prosecute the
arty or parties having committed this crime.
I am not entering a protest at this time. but
nith the time allowed by law I may do so, if
here is evidence sualcient to warrant the same.
I ask that you do your full duty without fear
>r favor.
Respectfully.
