King, who is no longer connected with McLeod, Wil kins, King Co. Mr. King has decided to move to Spartanburg, and his decis ion will be regretted by many espec ially the farmers'-. throughout the county. He..had much to do, in fact, we think he was one of the main causes for Manning being- a good cot ton market. He was alw.ays an. active buyer. Mr. Ki'ng has been in the mercantile business in Manning a num-~ ber of years. 'He has plenty of energy and his new field will give his business /ability plenty of roo'tb. develope,.and we expect to hear that he has made a success in Spartanburg. If a cough once gets into your system it acts, on every muscle and fibre of the body and makes you ache acbe all over It especially affects the intestines and makes you constipated, so in order to get rid of a cold thoroughly and with out delay yon should not take anything that will tend to constipate,.Kennedy's Laxative Cough Syrup acts upon the bowels and thereby drives the cold out of the system, it contains no opiates it is pleasant to take, and is highly ree ommended for children. Soid by W. E. Brown & Co. Under the present dispensary law there is a greater profit -going to the people than under the old law. For the last three months of 1906 the dis penisary turned into the treasury 3,748.74 divided between county and town, nothing going to the schools. The last three months of 1907 there was turned into the treasury $7.359$8 divided exually between couty, town and schools. The schcools of the county get SL874.37, the county gets the same, thus showing under the present law, the county and schools ets two-thirds of the dispensary in come and the town one-third.. THE TDTES editor will be in attend-| ance upon the legislature before our| next issue appears, and in order that the paper may be kept up to its high standard, Dr. A. S. Todd, well known to the people of Clarendon, has kindly consented to take editorial charge of THE TIMES. We feel proud of having been able to turn THE TIMES over to a manof Doctor Todd's ability. He is a newspaper man, in every sense of the word, and our readers will enjoy his editorials. The editor's usual capitol correspondence will appear in these columns every week after the legisla ture gets under way, and we would ask our friends in Manning and elsewhere to aid Dr. Tood with any news items they may be able to find. He will ap An exhibition of the "manly art' wa_ given in Manning last Friday night in the Institute hall, by Pete Voor hees and Bob Caine. The prize fight ing business has been outlawed, and as a substitute,athletes have put up wrest ling exhibitions. The performance last Friday night is said to have been good. Both men are giants in strength. and the art of wrestling is a science with them. The contest was for Voor- I hees to throw Caine twice in one hour' which he failed to do when time was called, therefore Caine was declared the winner. The writer did not at tend the match, but is informed that the affair was conducted in decency| and order, and there was nothing to be disapproved of. Those people wno admire the physical development of man had an opportunity at this exhi bition to realize what training can do.

The county commissioners held their regular monthly meeting last Saturday at which the Representatives, with the exception of *1r. Scarborough were present. Several recommendations were made by the Commissioners for the delegation's consideration which will be taken up by them at their first meeting in Columbia. Among. the recommendations offered by Dr. C. B. Geiger of the board. was the abolishing of the magistrates oces at Paxvllle and Foreston and one in Salem. Doctor Geiger views these4 offices as unnecessary, and thinks they should be abolished as a matter of economy; the Supervisor however, does not agree with the Doctor, and c thinks there are more important places to retrench than in the magistrates 1 offices. It is our judgment that the books bf the county commissioners, school commissioner, auditor, sheriff and treasurer should be investigated by an expert accountant to ascertain the exact financial condition of the county, and then when that has -been done arrangements should be made to. put our county managcment upon a cash system. It is a difficult task to know just how to legislate for a county when its financial liabilities are not known. Special Teachers Examination. A Special Teachers Examination will t be.held in the court house at Manning n Friday the 17th day of .Tanuary 1908I from 9 a. m. to 4 p. m. Applicants will 1 please govern themselves accordingly. S. P. HOLLADAY, County Supt. of Education. l r This morning between 6 and 10 dclock 1 Willie Herbe, a trusted colored man, t in the employ of W. P. Hewkins & Co. a carcely over 25 years of age, commit- S ted suicide by shooting himself in the t head above the right ear. Herbe haG s the full confidence of his employers, t and for the past few days it was seen I he had been drinking, something unu- i sual with him. On yesterday be ac- t costed Mr. Hawkins in a penitent t mood, and asked his forgiveness for his r conduct, saying that he would rather a blow his brains out than - to feel that s be had lost Mr. Hawkins' confidence. t This morning when Mr. Hawkins drove. into the stable, Herbe was standing in l the front door, apparently alright. He, together, with some of his relatives went into the office, and in a few mo- . ments a pistol shot was heard in . the . back of the building, Mr.-Hawkins told his son Algie to go and see what was the matter, Algie went baok and as he went to go out of the side door into the stables, he found Herbe lying in the oor way, on his back with the pistol by him, what could biare cause thehboy to take-his life no one knows; he was well behaved. attended to his business and was faithful to his employers. His tragic end is generally deplored. a - Inn cest Men Defy Persecution. We would not do a man an unjustice knowingly, and of course, it is right to allow the use of these columns to any man who feels aggrieved at any~thing which may have appeared therein,hence we publish a letter of Mr. A. P. JMagin cf Pinewood. It will be remembered ( there appeared in THEE TIM a men-. tion of a rumor that a magistrate ofthis county would be reported to the grand ury and to the governor for grave char- t ges, then later there also appeared in j the columns a report of the imagistrate at Pinewood having been -waited upon by citizens and his resignation deman-t ted etc. still later, we reported the res- a ignation of this magistrate. So far as the complaints against Mr. Ragiri being true are concerned we have no personal knowledge; but they were made, and as a result of these coin- ~ plaints, a new magistrate has been ap pointed. The editor in conducting his newspaper cannot consider personal friendships, if he did,he would be unfit for his position, and would soon lose the confidence of the public, he must report the news given to him, if he regards the source reliable. It was reporte di to us that citizens demanded the resig nation of Mfr. Ragin, it was also repor ted to us (that :Mr. Ragin would be reported to the grand jury, and to the t governor if he did not resign; thesea were legitimate news items about a pub lic officer, and we produced them as t such without any personal feeling in. the matter. Our comment in which we held the voters of Pinewood responsible for Mr. Ragin being their magistrate was en tirely impersonal, they are responsible because they are supposed to know all about any man they may choose, and if they put into office a man who is dis pleasing to them they can only blame itemseves. In the case of Mr. Ragin they, as we said in one of our issues. knew the man, his .aracter, -habits and qualifications, and when they se lected him, it was an endorsement of his character, habits, qualifications. We always deplore matters of this nature, especially so, when the party affected,is regarded by us as a political fried. bue '.e cannot permit our po litical nor personal friendships to stand in the way of our public duty, and whenever an officer is reported to us,we shall not screen him because perhaps he is a political supporter. The public service must be considered first, in the case of Mr. Ragin, if an unjustice has been done him, the people of his im mediate community are alone responsi ble, not us, if he is innocent of the complaints against him, then we regret he did not have the manhood to stand up for his rights. If he is innocent,( and proved it to us we would have stood by him to the last, or even had he sfowed a disposition to exonerate him- 1 self, we can assure him and his friendse that Governor Ansel would not have named his succoessor with our approval,I and without our approval no appoint ment would stand. But Mr. Ragin re signed, threw up the sponge without a struggle, innocent men, when their, characters are in question should not act that way. A little Lobster Salad.

There came near being a very fatal accident in Manning last Friday after noon, as it turned out three men were hurt, the fire engine damaged, and a a splendid horse ruined. Chief S. L. Krasnoff and Mr. S. W. Barron of the fire department concluded to give the tire horses exercise. Mr. Krasnoff mounted the seat-and Mr. Barron the rear step. At the order of the chief, the engine house doors were thrown open, and out come the horses under whip at full speed; a cow happened in the street and Mr. Krasnoff in trying to avoid the cow, miscalculated the turn at the corner with the result that the ponderous ma hine in making the sudden turn at the reckless rate of speed, turned over, nd it was a little short of a miracle that Messrs. Krasnoff and Barron were aot crushed to death beneath it. As vas, Krasnoff got his back badly ,renched, and Barron his face cut. rhe engine was damaged; after the iorses were extricated from the over ;urned engine one of them from fright Lnd excitement became unmanagable. r. W' P. Hawkins and Willie Herbe, >oth accustomed to handling horses, ttempted to - quiet the animal but ,ould do nothing with it. Mr. Hawkins vas severely hurt by the excited ani nal's pawing. It is to be hoped our over-zealous iremen will not undertake to come out >f the engine house again at a break ieck speed. There is no necessity for t, in the first place, and then no one bould be allowed to drive' the engine xcept one who -horoughly understands Iriving. All of us regret the the acci Lent that befell Messrs. Krasnoff and 3arron, but they had no right to jeop rdize their own lives and that of other itizens by such reckless driving. We understand that Chief Krasnoff ifered to pay for the damage done to he engine, but we hope he will not be llowed to do so, as his public spirit ould be little appreciated by our citi ens if they permitted him to pay for his accident.
