Again we would direct.the attention
of those in authority to the need of bet
ter heating facilities in the school
house. It will not do to wait until the
session has begun before the work is
looked after. Last winter the heating
conditions were not only annoying but
absolutely dangerous. The trustees or
town council should take up this matter
at once.
Our County Supervisor has at last.
adopted a wise course in hiring out to
another county the remnant of his
chain gang. It is a pity he did not do
this long ago. but it is better late than
never. Now that lie has gotten clear
of his convicts, he. will have no need
for guards. nor for his great big mules.

citizens. Drs. C. B. and .1. F. Geiger.
Both of these sons attended the funeral
which took place at Sandy Run Luth

been a faithful member from early
womanhood.
We would be greatly pleased to
secure a copy of a speech delivered by
us in the Senate in190K) on the d ispensary
question. At the request of a number
of people in and outside the State. we
had the speech printed in pamphlet
form and sent out as a supplement to
THE TImES. Some of our friends may
have kept one of these copies, and if
so, we should feel indebted if theywill
send it to us.
Jessie Nelson the escaped convict
from the Clarendon chaingang, who
was arrested in Sumter charge with at
an attempt to commit a heinous crime
was tried and convicted and sentenced
to 30 vears in the penitiary, the sen
tence to begin after the sentence which
he is now serviag on the chaingang
has expired. We do not know how it
will be with the Sumter gang, but if
Nelson was sent back to Clarendon.
there is no telling how soon he would
be getting away.
Thei.e will be no speeches tomorrow
at the picnic from men who were not
especially invited at the meeting of the
association to speak. N.' one is author
ized to extend invitations to speak at
this gathering. We call attention to
this because it has been intimated that
the friends of some men may call upon
them, as is frequently the case at pub
lic gatherings. The man who under
takes to make a speech on this occasion
without having been formally invited
by the association will be regarded as
n~ unwelcomed intruder.
We have often heard the expression,
"Give M1r. - a pencil and a piece of
paper and he will figure himself out of
hell if you give him time." In a con
versation with ex-Comptroller General
Derham, who has been investigating
Clarendon's books for some time. we
gathered it is his opinion that it is
all a mistake that Clarendon is in debt,
and we judge from what he said that
by the time he gets through he will
fi~nd that the commissioners, grand jury
and everybody else were mistaken in
supposing the'county to be in debt. Hie
did not tell us just when he had this
dream, but then he has not completed
his investigations.
The Picnic-No Politics.
The merchants of M~anning have
agreed to close their stores tomorrow
to go to the picnic at Tindall's Miill.
All of our merchants are taking an
active interest in the affairs of the as
sociation, and have manifested a desire
to help in every way.
There have been some p~eop~le who
were disposed to knock the pieni~c
movement, because they feared it
would be 'converted into a p)olitical
meeting. In fact. we have heard that
some men were declaring that the pic
nic was gotten up for the purpose of
booming a local man for political pref
erment. This is not true, there is ab
sorutelv uo foundation for such a state
ment. 'The president of the associa
tion. ;is well as those wh are assisting
him is trying to mnake the picnic a sue
ess. all are opposed to politics creeping
into this picnic and the gentlemen who
were invited to deliver speeches have
been informed that this picnic has no
political significance whatever.
At Dillon the committee in charge of
that picnic made a written request of
Senator 31cLaurin to speak on the dis
pensary question and lhe did so. We
think that committee sho~uld not have
made the request, but after they did.
there wvas nothing else for MicLaurin
to do but talk dispensary as he wvas
their guest. The committee in charge
of this picnic will not request any of
the gentlemen to malke speeches on any
subject outside of that which the cotton
growers association has to do. We
hope the attendance from this town
-ill be large, and we feel surec that
this gathering wvill be the largest ever
held in the county.
ILoyal to the Cause.
We. the undersigned merchants of
the Town of Mlanning, agree to close
our stores on Thursday, July 27th, to
let ourselves and emplovees attend the

Did You Attend the Beulah Picnic?
The annulpice (f Company II.
2;Ll! S. C. V.. came ofY at Beulah Cross
loads last, Saturcav and it was, we
think. the largest picnic we ever at.
tended. The crowd is variously est'i
mated at from three to five thousand:
the number was hard to get at because
they were scattered over the spacious
grounds. but it was a tremendous crowd
of good-humored men, women and chil
di-en. and those in charge did every
thing they could to see to it that none
went awaty dissatisfied.
We lef:. here on the regular morning
mail train, with quite a number of fel
low pilgrims. changed cars at Alcolu.
where through the generosity of Capt.
D. V. Alderman, a train was awaiting
to take us to Beulah. The trip over
the Alcolut railroad was surprisingly
pleasant. becausc we had an idea as the
road was comparatively new. it would
be very rough. but it was not. We had
comfortable passenger cars. and "Pa,"
as the peopie affeetionately call .1r.
Alderman. gave his personal attention
to looking after the comfort of the pas
sengers. who were made his guests on
this free excursion, and it seemed
to afford 'Ta" pleasure in seeing the
big crowd of people enjoy the
ride. At each of the stations, Harby's,
Duliant. Sardiuia. Gaible*s. Beard's.
Coles, all along where a stop was made
the train took on passengers until there
were about two hundred people on this
first passenger train to Mun into Beu
lah. In this connection we should men
tion that _Mr. A. H. Reese was the en
gineer and Mr. Forrest Collins was
conductor: both engineer and conduc
tor realized the full extent of their -c
sponsibility and were not lax in the
performance of their duties.
Arriving at Beulah we found an im
mense throng already gathered. and
froni the depot to the grounds we
walked through a solid mass of jolly
humanity. It. was a revelation to us
to see the progress this place had made
in the last few years: from a cross
roads where nothing stood but a church
Beulah has developed into a progress
ive business town with a magnificent
future. The place is surrotnded by a
grand country, fertile lands aad sturdy
people, and the coming in of a railroad
and the prospect of a cotton mill in the
near future. Beulah will soon be heard
from in the commercial world with no
uncertain sound.
About the center of a very large
piece of woods. near a grand flowing
well we found the air being filled with
the eloquence of Senator T. G. McLeod
of Bishopville. We reached there just
in time to hear 'Mr. McLeod close his
address with a beautiful peroration on
the valor of the soldiers of the Confed
eracy. but those who heard his entire
speech tell us that -Tom" was at his
best and did himself proud.
The meeting was presided over by
Mr. Joe Barrow, who was aided by Mr.
J. W. Hicks. They told us that several
gentlemen who were invited to deliver
addresses failed to appear with the ex
ception of Hon. T. G. McEeod, and that
it was necessary to press others into
service. Capt. D. J. Bradham was the
first called upon and the committee did
well in getting him. because if there is
any subject Captain Bradham loves to
talk about it is that of the Confederate
soldier. He presented a silk flag made
by the ladies. He spoke before our ar
rival and was followed by Mr. Mc
Leod. and he by Mr. Pete Humihrey,
whb laid stress on the fighting quali
ties of the Confederate soldier and com
nared him with the "Cubian soldier
vho fit in the Philippines," Mr. Hum
phrey also paid a glowing tribute to
the memory of Mr. John Truluck. who
was a leading spirit of that section, and
who died Saturday morning. At the
conclusion of Mr. Humphrey's speech
the writer was pressed into the speech
making service, and he was followed
by Dr. I. M. Woods who made a very
nice talk.
After the speaking dinner was an
nounced, and such a dinner-boxes and
trunks were gotten out and spreads
made under tne trees. Then came the
hospitality for which Salem is noted.
Those who had spreads went about
looking for those who came without
and it wvas -You eat with us,"- or "Old
fellow, my folks wsill be disappointed if
ou, don't' come.''- Go where you would
and there was a spread of everything
good to eat, and in immense quantities.
One of the noticeable features of these
dinners was the quantity of fried chick
en and home-cured hams,which showed
these people to be "home-livers."
They have their corn-cribs and smoke
houses at home and live as true farmers
should. When we speak of the charac
teristic Salem hospitality everybody
who has ever attended a public gather
ing in that section understands what it
means. It means that everybody fur
nishes of the very best and the most
plentiful, and .that they want their
guests to enjoy it.
All about on the grounds were lemn
onade, soda water and ice cream
stands, where these refreshments were
served, and in every direction after
dinner could be seen groups of people
enjoying the lucious water melon. The
day was spent meeting friends, renew
ing old acquaintances, making new
friends, and every body was made to
feel free and easy. There was some
hot blood there too, some boys got into
a dispute, and attempted to settle it by
an appeal to the fist, there were two or
th-ee of these little scraps but no harm
was done.
B3eulah is an ideal place for a big
pinic, it is situated near where the
lines of six counties come in. Claren
don. Sumter,. Lee, Williamsburg, Dart
inton~' and Flor-ence. and the vast mful
titude there was from these counties.
It was certainly a well managed affair,
and one which we enjoyed hugely.
We all had a good time at the picnic.
and enjoyed the ride on the Alcolu rail
road for which we feel under obliga
tions to Captain Alderman for his kind
ness and generous attentions, and to
Conductor- Collins and Engineer Reese
'for their taking such good care of those
they had in chat-ge. At another time
we 'will have something to say about
ur observations along this line of
ailroad, and( its probable' benelit to
Manning.
