Senator Dietrich of Nebraska, who was charged with bartering a postoflice appointment, and vi olation of law with regard to the rent of a building, was tried in the United States court and found not guilty upon a techni cality. The press of the country was very severe on the Senator for taking advantage of a loop hole. The Senator insisted upon his innocence and demanded a thorough investigation by the Senate: this has been had, and the committe consisting of three Republicans and two Democrats make a unanimous report declar ing Senator Dietrich guiltless of any corrupt or unworthy con duct. It is very evident that the Nebraska Senator was victim of political spleen, and had it not been for his determination to -have full light thrown upon his transactions, his enemies would have succeeded in casting a stig ma upon his character,as it is, he comes out of the fire unscathed and his influence made the stronger. Would that all-of our public men when charged do as Senator Dietrich - demand a thorough investigation. instead of getting behind the "Prove it" barricade. A man holding. public office when charged does not occupy the same position as one who is charged with crime in a court of law, in the case of the man charged with crime in the courts, it is incumbent on the part of the accuser to prove it, but an officer when accused, should give an account of his stewardship, and show, not by mere assertion, but by facts, fig ures. vouches and other tangible *matters -: record that the charg es made are false. It often hap pens that men in public life get *rich, which would be impossible from their salaries, their consti tuents have a right to - know where they got it, and when cir cumstances point to corruption the official suspected should make every eftort to clear away the cloud. This is what it ap pears that the Nebraskan Sena tor did. When acen'sed he de manded an immediate investiga --ti6n~ by the court~s, exonerated there, he continued the demand for an investigation, and again exonerated; now he occupies the * position of a man who has van quished his enemies, and at the same time merited the respect of the entire country. CLARENDON HAS 1N0 AREA TO SPARE. There appeared on the Colum bia Record of last Saturday a news item to the effect that the people of Sandy Grove section of Clarendon are now taking steps to have that portion of the county ceded to Williamsburg. This is certainly news to us, and we hope it is a mistake. Claren don is fast getting in condition to build up her roads, and short en distances, and to lose any portion of our already cramped area will indeed be unfortunate. Just why that section should want to disconnect herself from a prosperous county to one which is not making as rapid strides we cannot conceive, and we do not see wherein Williams burg offers any better attrac tions, unless it is the distance, but when our roads have been straightened, and built up the difference in distance will be miade up in the quality of tray el. Our local market alone is an inducment which should count against the difference in distance. We have as good a purchasing market as there is in South Carolina, and the past season has demonstrated what can be done in the purchase of cotton by having competition. The active competition between W. G. King and W. T. Sellers gave to the cotton growers all that the best of markets paid, and our tobacco warehouses paid priebs that other towns would not hear to. We said we hoped it was a mistake for Sandy Grove's peo ple to want to go to Williams burg, because, we do not ' care to part company with so good a citizenship as is made up in that township. We know those peo ple, and appreciate their value, and although they do not get over here as aften as we would like to see them, if they will be a patient the roads will be put in such condition that the drive will be a pleasure. Don't leave us Sandy Grove we want you. STATE OF OHIO. CITY~ OF TOLEiDU. ' LUcas CocNTY. P FRANK J. CHENEY makes oath that he is the senior partner of the firm or F. J.

We take pleasure in reproduc ing in our columns a letter in last Monday's News and Courier signed "A Visitor," which gives a very nice description of Man ning's industry and progress, and with the exception of a cou ple of immaterial errors, it is very correct. Usually we do not disclose the name of an anon ymous writer, but in this case, we feel so grateful for the valu able "write-up," that we wish our readers to join us in appre ciating the kindness of Mr. Ros well T. Logan, an eminent member of the News and Cou rier's staff, who spent a few days in our town on a visit to his brother-in-law Mr. Jesse S. Plowden. Mr. Logan married in 1868. Miss Alice Plowden of this county, and this was his first to Manning since that time. It was our pleasure during Mr. Logan's short stay to make him acquainted with some of our people, and what was being done here, and knowing his devotion to the News and Courier which he has served beyond an ordina ry lifetime, we gave him all the information we possessed, being satisfied that he would do just what he has done, given to the country at large the information that there is in South Carolina a town, beautiful and healthy, firmly established and growing, and this Mr. Logan has done in a concise. comprehensive man ner, calculated to attract atten tion wherever the widely circu lated News and Courier goes. In behalf of ourself and the citizens of Manning we sincerely thank Mr. Logan for the valuable ad vertisment he has given our town. Serious Stomach Trouble Cured. I was troubled with a distress :n my stomach, sour stomach and vomiting spells and can truthfully say that Cham berlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets cured me.- MRs. T. V. WILLIAMS, Laings burg, Nich. These tablets are guaranteed to cure every case of stom ach trouble of this character. For sale by The R. B. Loryea Drug Store, Isaac N. Loryea, Prop. The News and Courier of this morning is a fine edition, chock full of valuable information, and as an advertisment it is hard to excel, not only does the paper proper win praise for its man agement, but there came with it the long looked-for "Centennial Edition" which we have no doubt will be preserved in thousands of libraries in this and other States. It is a complete record of a hundred years and gotten up in the most modern style of the printers art. We shall keep this centennial edition as an im portant acquisition to our library. Broke Into Bis House. S. Le Quinn of Cavendish. Vt., was robbed of his customary health by in asion of Chronic Constipation. When Dr. King's New Life pills broke into his house, his trouble was arrested and now he's entirely cured. Thy're guar mteed to cure, 25c at The R. B. Lor yea Drug Store. Senator Tillman's condition has not improved since his return to Washington. He will come back home, and- on account of his indisposition the Crum nom ination has been postponed, and will hardly be acted upon in the present session. It is thought however, should the Senate fail to act, the President will reappoint him during the recess, thus continuing Crum in the office. It does strike us that the Senate should dispose of this ppointment one way or another. f it does not want to confirm rum it should say so, and re ieve the President so that he :an make an appointment which will be approved by the Senate. Inflammatory Rheumatism Cured. William Shaffer, a brakeman of Den ison, Ohio. was confined to his bed for everal weeks with inflammatory rheu natism. "I used many remedies," he as. "Finally I sent to McCaw drug tre for a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm, at which time I was unable to use hand or -foot, and in one week's ime was able to go to work as happy as clam."

The great State of New York as had its convention and al hough it was not a harmonious ne, it nevertheless demonstrat d the utter failure of Tammanv o control. The delegates head d by former Senator David B. kill are instructed to vote for udge Alton B. Parker for Pres dent, and we now look for a ajority of the States to follow ew York's suit and that Judge arker will be the nomiinee of he Democratic party. The fact of Parker and Roosevelt being rom the Empire State, will ake the battle in New York a ierce one and the Republicans ver the country will have the ight of their lives to win. Judge arker is popular and without a ecord to attack, while Roose elt has made many enemies ad has a record that is con stantly being attacked. When the convention assem les at St. Louis. the Bryan ele ent will oppose the naming of Parker, and will make a vigorours ight for Hearst who has alread y a number of States instructed or him. In our opinion South arolina will favor Parker, but its delegation will go uninstruct d, in fact, it would be the part f wisdom not to instruct.

Manning, April 13.-Special:-Th object of this article is not to give a exhaustive description of Manning, il resources and attractions, as that woul require more time than I have to spar and more labor than I can afford. wish merely to give a few salient fact that strike an observant visitor, whic go to show that Manning is a pleasar place to live in, as well as to visit, tha it is live and prosperous, and what ar are some of the causes of its growth an prosperity. One of those causes, one c the most important, if not the most in portant, and one that is noted in a. thriving towns, is that the people bE lieve in their town, and talk it up on a. occasions. SHADED AVENUES ANL ;ROUNDS. To begin with the attracti- of Mar ning-no one can spend a day in th town without carrying away with hit an ever pleasant remembrance of th magnificent and beautiful trees tha shade its streets and grounds. Alon the main street there are three rows c magnificent oaks, tall and statelN which would crowd the streets were i not so wide. As it is the outer row shade the sidewalks, and all help t make and shade two roadways in th one street, each roadway being wid enough for vehicles to pass each othe without difficulty. There are shad trees on all the streets, though nc quite so many as on the main street, a; so in the large yards, which surroun the residences. There are in the town TWENTY-FIVE ARTESIAN WELLS, each of which supplies water to th houses in the immediate neighborhoot there being no such thing as water rent When a neighborhood wants a well, subscription is taken up, and the we. is dug, the town paying a part of th cost. One gentleman informed me tha he had water throughout his house, it cluding bath room and all necessar conveniences, and that the first cos was only $25, and no after cost. excep occasional repairs. OTHER ATTRACTIONS. The town has good natural drainage being situated on an elevated plateat and after a rain the water runs off rap idly. New houses are going up rapidl; in every direction, some large resider ces and many pretty cottages. Ther are Presbyterian, Baptist and Methc dist churches for the white people, an< a number of churches for colore, people. The Presbyterian churc] for white people is on the mai street, old-fashioned, but large an commodious, in a beautiful grove, wit the parsonage nearby. The Baptis church is quite a handsome building, i: modern style, and the Methodist churc] is also up-to-date. THE MERCANTILE BUSINESS. The business of the town is concer trated around the court house square and the streets near there, and th banks, lawyers' offices and the newspa pers are in the same neighborhood There are two banks, the Bank of Mar ning and the Bank of Clarendon. Th first has a capital of $40,000 and the de posits on March 31 were $155,980.25 The second has a capital of $25,000, an' the depositson March 31 were $33,239.21 The Bank of Manning was establishel September 2, 1889, and the Bankc Clarendon in September, 1903. I at informed that there are twenty-fiy stores, the ne west and largest of whic1 is the department store of MJr. Jenkir son. There are two newspapers u Manning - THE MANNING TIMES owned, edited and managed by Mr Louis Appelt, and The Farmer, put lished by the Manning Publishing Comz pany-the editor pro tem. being Mr John 0. Gough. Mr. Appelt is wel known in the world of politics, and h is a wheel horse in Manning's team c progressive citizens. MANUFACTUING ENTERPRISES. What surprised me most about Mar ning is its manufacturing enterprises They are not large as to capital, plan or output, but they are important a examples of the small industries tha may be developed and are being devel oped, in various parts of our State,witl benefit not only to those immediatel; engaged in them, but to the comnmuni ties in which they are established. TURPENINE FROM STUMPS. Among these enterprises the mos likely to interest the stranger and ex cite his curiosity, and, I might eve: say, arouse his wonder, is the Nava Stores Factory. As most of the reader of The News and Courier know, the 0r dinary process of producing turpentina is boxing the pine trees and lettin; the sun's heat draw out. the gum. Th< boxing can be done in two ways. Thi old way is to cut a piece out of the sid< of the tree about four feet from the bot tom, so that the cut slants downward being at the bottom some 3 or 4 inches deep and forming a little shelf. Thi: shelf was hollowed out forming a re eeptacle into which gum ran as it exu ded from the wound in the tree. Som< years ago, a plan for fastening tin boxe: to the trees was patented, and the gun ran into them and could be removeE more easily and with less loss. Thij product was called crude turpentine from which spirits of turpentine wa: distilled. This process destroyed man; pine forests and has apparently almos exhausted the supply of pine trees it this section of the country, when th; process employed by the Manning Nava Stores Co. was discovered. This pro :ess distills the turpentine from fa pine wood, pine knots and stumps, thu! tilizing much material that would oth erwise go to waste. From this mate rial there is obtained besides spirit o urpentine, tar, cresote, charred woo( nd charcoal, and the company als< manufactures a very effective wood preserver from oil of turpentine. The Naval Stores Factory is near th< epot. and is well worth visiting. I onsists of a furnace, a battery of re torts, a still and a series of huge wood n tanks, with pipes from the retorti nd still to the tanks, and to the recep tacles for the tar and creosote, wvhicl are automatically separated from the spirits of turpentine by the laws o gravity. These works are protected b' a large wooden shed. The daily outpu is 100 gallons of spirits of turpentine, 34 gallons of creosote, 200 gallons of tai nd 50 'oushels of charcoal. The officers >f the company are: A. Levi, president D. W. Alderman, vice president; F. C Thomas, secretary and manager. Th< apital is $25,000. The factory coin menced operations last year. Not very far from the naval store: factory is. THE COTTON OIL MILL, which began operations in 1900, with: capital of $30,000. It has been of grea advantage to the farmers of Clarendor in furnishing a home market for cottoi seed. It is now a part of the Independ ent Cotton Oil Company, which has it: headquarters in Charleston, with an oi refinery on Ashley river, and its office: at21 Broad street. The general manage: is Mr. R. K. Dargan. situated at the other extreme of the town, almost as far as possible from th< depot, is THE HOSIEY MILL, making hose and half-hose of variou grades. The mill employs 130 hands D mostly women and young girls,but at the e time of my visit not more than half the R hands were present. Nevertheless i presented quite a busy scene, and the knitting, shaping, dyeing and pressini V were going steadily on. and the highesl S quality of the product was very fine in deed. The daily product is 300 dozer pairs of hose for men, women and chil F dren. The mill was established in 1S96 is owned by Mr. W. S. Harvin, and the L capital then invested was $10,000,whici has since been increased to $27,000. In the same building with the hosier S mill is D THE ELECTRIC PLANT, D which furnishes light for Manning, ani which is also owned by Mr W. S. Har e vin. At present 20 arc lights and 70( incandescents are furnished. The cap i ital is $10,000. a THE HARNESS FACTORY, e which is very near the hosiery mill, is I another interesting plant to visit, anc s another proof that there is plenty o: h room in South Carolina for industries ,t with small capital. The saddles anc t sets of harness which I saw here were e neat strong and well made, and some i of them fine goods and very handsome, f and the manager informed me that the factory had as many orders as it could L fill and a ready demand for the regular grades. He said that one important l element of the success of the factory was that there were no high salaried officials to pay, no ornamental presi dent, no drummers to run about the e country seeking trade, accumulating expenses and no vast number of stock e holders demanding high dividends. The factory is not owned by a corpora tion, but by a firm,Thomas & Bradham. The capital is $5,000, and the weekly output about 20 sets of buggy and car riage harness, besides saddles and bri. s dles. Mr. E. J. Russell is manager. 0 TELEPHONE FACILITIES. e One more proof that Manning has tc e show that it is a progressive and up-to r date town, is that it has a telephone e company,which was established in 1900. ' One hundred and twenty-five 'phones iz the town are connected with the cen d tral office. and there are long distance connections with all parts of Clarendon, Williamsburg, Sumter, Darlington, Florence and Marlboro counties. W.E. e Jenkinson is president, and D. M. i Bradham, manager. The capital is $4,000. a DR. BROCKINTON'S INFIRMARY. I Another new and important enter. e prise in Manning, mention of which should not be omitted, although it is in no way a manufacturing industry, is the infirmary of Dr. Brockinton, which is nearly completed, and will soon be t open for the reception of patients. It is a two-story building with rooms and offices, and pleasant piazzas, on the lot adjoining Dr. Brockinton's handsome residence on the main street. Infirma ries and hospitals are among the neces sities for the proper treatment of pa tients requiring the attention of a sur ,geon. Dr. Brockinton has obtained the services of a trained nurse from George town and as people will be sick some times, even in Manning, the people are to be congratulated on this addi tion to its accommodation for patients CONCRETE ROADWAYS. SManning has one great natural ad vantage which it seems to have but re cently discovered; at any rate, it is but recently that the town authorities have availed themselves of it. Although the surface soil of Manning is a sandy loam, from two to three feet in depth,beneath it is a strata of red clay, four or more feet thick, Manning's streets are there fore naturally sandy and heavy, and the sidewalks only less so because ye hicles and horses are not allowed on them. Glay and sand mixed, however, make an excellent roadway, and the present council is having trenches dug in the streets, the clay thrown on too the surface sand thrown into the trench es and the clay mixed with it. Most ~towns wishing to make a hike improve ment would have to haul the clay from a distance at more or iess expense, but Manning has it just under her streets. Enterprising merchants are having brick pavements built in front of their stores, and in this way the business centre will soon have brick sidewalks and with sand and clay-mixed streets and sidewalks Manning will soon have as pleasant walking and riding as any city.~ New and imm'oved roads, very much needed,are also being constructed by the county authorities from Manning to Summerton, Alcolu and other outly ing towns and villages, which of course will make Manning more accessible to -the surrounding country and add large ly to its rapildy increasing business. tFor most of the facts and figures used Sin the above hurried and imperfect sketch of Manning, it is only fair tosay -that I am indebted to NIr. Louis Appelt, the well-informed and obliging editor of THE MANNING TIMES.-"A Visitor" -in The News and Courier. Dr-. Marvin Locates In Summerton. -The increasing business of Capers & 1Co has made it nece-.sary to have an other Pharmacist to help Mr. Capers at Sthe prescription stand. They ar-e to be congratulated on securing the services of Dr. S. A. Marvin, Jr., a graduate Druggist, who comes highly recom mended by Dr. Hancock of*Charleston where he h~as been employed for several years. Mr. Capers being a graduate Pharmacist himself and having Dr. Marvin to assist him. All prescriptions entrusted to this firm will be filled by only Graduate Druggists. This is as it should be. Tlhe pawnbroker who takes the most interest in his business, has the least principle. The business in which you know you could make money, is always monopo lized by others. Like the running brook, the red blood that flows through the veins has to come from somewhere. The springs of red blood are found in the soft core of the bones called the marrow and some say red blood also comes from the spleen. Healthy bone marrow and healthy spleen are full of fat. Scott's Emulsion makes new blood by feeding the bone marrow and the spleen with the richest of all fats, the pure cod liver oil. For pale school girls and invalids and for all whose blood is thin and pale, Scott's Emulsion is a pleasant and rich lblood food. It not only feeds ihe blood-making organs but ('ives them strength to do their proper work. .Send for free samuple. SCOTT & BOWNE, Chemists, 4o9-I5 Pe::r1 street. New York. Alcolu Siftings. Editor The Manning Times: It is with reluctance that we inder. take to send you any news frori here this week, but we feel that througlh justice to the town we must do ;o. We see news from almost every other sec. tion, and we can't afford to be behind the times. Ours is one of the mos up to-date towns in the county, and we propose to keep up-to-date. Our farmers are going arorind'with long faces waiting for the v. eather tc turn warm again. They are thinking how hard it will be to undertake to plant their whole cotton crop over. We hope this will not be necessary. Mr. F. L. Wolfe spent last Saturday in Columbia. Mr. W. C. .Johnson who has beer sick for the last day or two is able to be up again. Mr. Johnson is a jolly good fellow, and we are glad indeed that his illness was brief. Even as i1 was we missed him very much. His illness caused a standing engagement to be broke which could not be filled by any other. We have no doubt though, that the lost time will be made up as soon as he is able. Mr. J. P. Meehan spent.yesterday at his home in Columbia. Mr. C. M- Mason of Foreston was in town last week. He is a knight of the grip. We didn't know this, but when he shook our hands we knew he was a man with a grip. We didn't know him, but he soon made himself known. and told, us that he was a candidate for Clerk of the Court. He is about the cleveaest "drummer" we have had. The other fellows had better get to "drumming" too. or they may get left. PAT. Alcolu, S. C., April 18, 1904. The R. B. Loryea Drug Store. Dear Sir: Over fifty years ago our firm began selling paint throughout the South: sales have continued uninter ruptedly, and ten times greater than any other brand of paint. Read the following: "Have used the L. & M. Paint twen ty years; houses painted with it eight years ago show better today than hous es painted with other paints within two years." A. B. Edgell, Alachua, Fla. "Have used all brands of naint. L.& M. Pure Paint stands better, and wears longer than any other paint I have ever used in 'my ten years experience." H. F. Smith, Painter, Concord, N. C. "I painted Frankenburg Block with L. & M. Paint; stands out as though varnished. Actual 'cost was less than 1. 20 per gallon." W. B. Barr, Charleston, W. Va. "I painted our old homestead with L. & M. Paint twenty-six years ago. Not painted since; looks better than houses painted in the last four years with other paint." H. S. Scofield, Harris Springs, S. C. "Used the L. & M. Paint for sixteen years. Painted three houses with it fifteen years ago; they have not needed painting since." J. E. Webb, Hickory, N. C. Respectfully, LONGMAN & MARTINEZ. This celebrated paint is sold by The R. B. Loryea Drug Store. Some men are so stingy that they will squeeze a dollar till the eagle gets sick at the stomach. Contentment may be better than money-but most men are willing to take chances with the money. No Gloss Carriage Paint Made will wear as long as Devoe's. No others are as heavy bodied, because Devoe's weigh 3 to 8 ounces miore to the pint. Sold by Manning Hardware Co. Enjoyment is the sweet satisfaction of knowing that your income is more than you can possibly spend. A fortune awaits the. genius who will perfect a system that will enable a man to dodge trolley cars and creditors. Time may be money, but somehow your friends appreciate the money you spend with them more than the time. PROCLAMATION. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, EXECUTIVE CHAMBER.
