After the ceremony the rel atives and friends sat down to a nicely prepared wedding supper. Notwithstanding the short crop,Man ning handled twice as much cotton this past season than for any other season, and nothing has done this but the gen eral awakening among our cotton buy *ers who earnestly endeavored to make this 'market second to none. Mr. W. 1. Sellers the Sprunt representative is entitled to more credit for our market condition than is generally known. He was the motive-power behind the market which gave impetus to prices and we hope that next season should his oncern seznd him back here, he will be a thorn in the flesh to all who are not disosed to pay what cotton is worth. Mr. W. J. Muldrow has connected himself with the law firm of Wilson & DuRant, as will he seen by their notice. Mr. Mudrow comes here from Mayes ville, of a family known for their sterl ing integrity. 'The young man has had xceptional opportunities, and that he has taken advantage of them is shown by his high stand at the University of Virginia where he graduated. At that institution he was in a class of 85 stu dents of which only 37 graduated, the others failing. Mr. Muldrow is not only a young man of fine ability, but ha posses all of the characteristics of a true entleman. Dr. W. M.

C. v-: united action of the farmers has dem to! onstrated what a little intelligent work -- can do. Think of it. the few who joim p- Mr. Sublett saves about 81,500, what )e would the county have saved in this one ie article, if all farmers, black and white, )r had gone into it. In our opinion had i all of the farmers joined in the scheme, r Clarendon would have saved in the one ic transaction, more than it takes to run n- the free schools ten years. The organ ization is young and crude yet, but if our farmers will stand by it, and keep it within the lines it has been launched, there is nothing to Lose, but many e- thousands of dollars to gain. We wish te every township had a Sublett to organ ,- ize it. and to teach its members what LC should be done, and what can be done s by united action. Organize every d where, and before this year closes, a- there will be a State organization g, formed, which will have as its g branches every township in South Car 5. olina, then will the farmers be in posi li tion to demand reasonable concessions, d and they will get them. As little as y some may think this one transaction made by the Clarendon farmers will open the eyes of the farmers every where, and when they learn that by - united action the farmers of Clarendon s saved over -3.00 per ton on guano it t will be an incentive to organize every e where, and when it is done the trusts o and all other blood-suckers will realize - that their day for oppression and ex e tortion is pas. s A very successful farmer, in speak n ing of the goods bought by Mr. Sublett, says he has compared the analysis of s the guanos known to farmers as 8-4-4 d with the Peruvian and he makes the s Peruvian's value one ton of acid above - the 8-4-4 goods, in otherwords it will r take a ton of 8-4-4 and a ton of acid to s equal the Peruvian and the trust asks n for the 84-4, about what Mr. Sublett s bought the Peruvian. d Night Was Her Terror - "I would cough nearly all night long," writes Mrs. Chas. Applegate, of Y Alexandria,Ind., "and could hardly get e any sleep. I had consumption so bad a that if I walked a block I would cough a frightfully and spit blood, but when all - other medicines failed, three $1 bottles s of Dr. Kings New Discovery wholly r cured me and I gained 58 pounds." It's b absolutely guaranteed to cure coughs, e colds,la grippebronchi tis and all throat and lung troubles. Price 50c and $1.00. Trial bottles free at The R. B. Loryea, Drug Store. Our Delegation. Mr. Lesesne's bill to authorize the ,r county commissioners to pay the Pauley d jail building company $590, which is in a excess of the amount originally appro , priated, was passed to a third reading. . The Lanham 250 pound baggage bill - was amended to read 200 pounds which was not agreed to by t0e House, and it - is now in the hands of a free conference r committee. ,e Mr. Lesesne's tax bill received an d unfavorable report, which report was .i adopted by the House, but the vote by which it was adopted was reconsidered o to give him a chance to place it on the e Calendar where it is now, and where it is likely to remain for this season or be - killed. e By some means the General Assembly in voting for trustees for Winthrop col lege elected Dr. Crawford of Rock Hill to succeed Senator B. R. Tillman, and it is presumed that the ousting of Sen ator Tillman was unintentional, how - ever Dr.Crawford declined the election -and writes a letter in which he asks for the re-election of Tillman and in order to avoid similar mistakes Mr. Lesesne 1 offered a concurrent resolution to ap s point a committee to find out exactly S what vacancies, if any, occur on the boards of Clemson and Winthrop col leges. The resolution was adopted. The only reason we can give for mis t takes with regard to trusteeships, is that the Constitution of the State for s bids the holding of two offices, and no t commissions have been demanded by -such trustees as hold two ofices, be cause it might raise the question, of a whether the accepting the trusteeship t commission would not vacate the other s office. We doubt exceedingly if Sena r tor Tillman's seat in the United States e Senate were questioned after he accep e ted a trusteeship commission, if he could hold it, and it would be a pity to. because the Senator has rendered good service to Winthrop. e Notwithstanding the unfavorable re e port to Senator Stanland's primary bill, n it passed the Senate and if it passes the 0 House no voter can have. his name on e but one club roll, and that must be in 0 the township where he resides. 'We received too late for this issue. e Mr. DesChamps' bill relating to the es s tablishment of experimental stations and on reading it, we are impressed with its merit. This is one bill looking to the betterment of agricultural inter ests. We will publish it next week. SThe biennial sessions resolution pass ed the House yesterday. Messrs. Les esne and DesChamps voting against it ~and Mr. Lanham for it. There is a "rav doubt in our mind as to the wis t Elo of biennial sessions, and when the .d question is submitted to the people who e will have to decide we will then under -take to show why in our opinion Messrs. Lesesne and DesChamps were right in voting against biennial sessions. A Prisoner in Her Own House. Mrs. W. H. Layha, of 1001 Agnes Ave., Kansas City, Mo., has for several it ears been troubled with severe hoarseness and at times a hard cough, -which she says "Would keep me in 'doors for days. I was prescribed for d by physicians with no noiceable results. hA~ friend gave me part of a bottle of LChamberlain's Cough Remedy with in structions to closely follow the direc tions and 1 wish to state that after the S first day I could notice adecided change for the better. and at this time after us 1, ing it for two weeks, have no hesitation h in saying I realize that I am entirely cure." This remedy is for sale by The R. B. Loryea Drug Store. Isaac M. Loryea, Prop. d County Teachers' Association Organized.
