Entered at the Postotice at Manning as See ona Class matter. - Daniel Sully, the famous cot ton King, speculator has at 'last tampered with the ticker once too often and the bottom was knocked out of his gold coffers. The Russo-Japanese war con tinues to furnish puzzling re ports, one day it's a Russian vic tory, the next it is Japanese, and the third day the whole thing is contradicted. We said last week, that it mat ters not who is nominated as the Democratic standardbearer, the South will vote for him solidly, and we still believe itbut in case General Miles wins the nomina tion, which we do not look for, there will be a strong feeling in the South to go fishing on elec tion day, as the people of the South cannot and will not for give that tyrant for putting shackles upon Jefferson Davis when he was a prisoner of war. Some of our State papers have been making light of what is -terned the "Hearst booni," but the political straws are certainly pointing towards Hearst for the Democti nomination. Al ready several States have indi cated iu unmistakable terms their preference for Hearst, and it would not surprise us in the least if he carries off the honor, and if he is nominated, he will make the Republicans awake to the realization that there is something doing in the political world. It will not be long before our county canvention will be called upon to organi~ze for the county campaign, and we think it well to remind the people if they per-I mit their clubs to organize without the attendance of the member ship, a few men will control the whole business and the delegates chosen will only rep-resent the office seeking politicians. Attend your club meetings, expunge1 from your rolls fictitious names, * and have your club represented in convention by delegates of your choice. The Bristow report has a num ber of Congressmen on the anx ious benich, and it would not sur prise us in 'the least, if some very prominent men of both par ties come to- grief. That there has been grafting is beyond doubt, ard that Democrats and Reoublicans . alike have shared in the spoils is beyond dispute. The friends of the administra tion claim the credit for unearth ing the scandals and the other side claim that they were the ones to force the issue. The com~ng natio-nal campaign will be one of crimination and re crimination. Each side will paint the other black. - Do not fail to procure a regis tration ticket for the municipal election. There is a mayor, and six alderman to be chosen-. Let this be one electi-on that will not represent the choice of town: em ployees. Let a ticket be nomi nated in the open and not in se Icret conclave. It is time the taxpayers of Manning were us ing some judgement in the selec of their town gover'nment. We hooe there will be a mass meet ing of citizen taxpayers next Sriday afternaoon who will have theo manhood to come out boldly and say what they talk in pri *vate. - $100 Reward, $100.

BranchvilleMarch 17.-The building committee of the Methodist church here met a few days ago and gave out the contract for the erection of a new bick church here. The contract was given to Contractor W. M. Warren of this place, and the church when comn pleted, will cost in the neighborhood of sS.000. The building of a brick Methodist church here has been contemplated for several years, but the undertaking has just now taken shape. About one-half of the money has already been sub se-ribed, and the buildiuir committee, with the assistance of the Rev. S. A Nettles, the pastor. who is a hard worker. anid who usually succeeds in his undertakings. hopes soon to have the balance of the money in hand. The wor~k will be pushed forward as rapidly as possible. and the contractor hopes to be ready for the cornerstone to be laid within the next few weeks.-The State.

The great preparations now going on imong our advertisers to attract trade s an indication that the country is in a )rosperous condition and the business element has every contidence in the >rogress of the town and its future de ;elopment. Take a look into the show windows and at once you are convinced .here is something doing. Louis Levi has filled one of his win lows with a nice display of beautiful ?!nbroideries and insertions which is :he envy of women and a blessing (?) to nan: another window contains a fine lisplay of children's clothing, the nob iest of suits. hats and shoes. Then Till. he, too, must tempt the uileless by tilling up his windows with the prettiest of draperies, dress goods md all manner of things to tempt wo nen to worship at the shrine of fash on. and men to wonder "what fools we ortals be." The Mutual Dry Goods Company has .ts windows arranged for "rubbering," md it's doughnuts to a brownie, that everything that has learned the art of ;auing "'11 take a sample of this," or "I'll take the whole of that," or "is my 1 aat on straight?" cannot pass this store vithout going in to look-not at the aandsome young proprietors, but at the gig display of goods. Why, even the nen who hate millinery cannot resist :he temptation of going a-way back to ;ee the pretty thing-s. On we go to Krasnoff 's, where is dis- 1 layed the things that make home com- , ortable. and young men hope to find a father-in-law who will give his daugh :er a complete outfit for parlor, bed yhamber, sitting room, kitchen, with ill the things to adorn the walls and doors. The Clarendon is tempting passersby with a fine display of fruit and canned goods, and within the walls everything s so attractive that to spend money is irresistible. Loryea's drug store comes right in line with window display and to divert the mind from "what a pain I've got," Loryea has his windows attractively arranged. It is not all sunshine with :.rug stores, they have their troubles like other people. A customer let his account run about two years before of fering to settle, and was non-plused to learn how much he owed. "Why," says - be. "I do not owe you all of this, lets go aver the items, here is a pound of choc olate bonbons, yes, and here is another item, one bottle of soothing syrup, how is this I do not. understand." The pro- y prietor carefully scanning the dates t said, " Well the chocolates were pur- 3 chased before you married and the a soothing syrup after, the account has a been standing for some time, you see." Next door the Manning Grocery at- a tracts the public by its display of tooth some food and this concern never lets an opportunity pass to make known to d the public when it has something new. Jenkinson's windows are now dressed for his trade display, and it certainly is a credit to the taste of the person who dressed these spacious windows. We venture to say that few city store win dows make a prettier show. Go on to Rigby's and he too is giving V the public an idea of what the latest a creations are in the dry goods line. It I will pay all shoppers to look into his c windows. Coming on over to the post office side and Hirschman is determined to give the other fellows a hustle. He says he don't have to go chasing up North for pretty girls to take charge of his mil linery,he has the prettiest of the bunch with him all the time, and sometimes - well, she never leaves him.

The library bill means simply this: The State Board will give $10 and the County Board $10 to twelve schools in the county, provided the schools will raise 10 by private means. Five schools in the western part of the county and one in Salem have noti ied us that their $10 have been raised: six others can come in, which we hope they will do at once. The county's portion is ready now and the State's will be in a few days. We are anxious to bave the libraries established before the school term ends so that the children get the books to read during vacation.
