Mrs. Hattie Ingram of Sumter is in Manning visiting relatives. The creditors of W. E. Jenkinson Co. meet in Charleston tomorrow. They are catching shad in Salem. Who will be the first to remember THE TIMES editor'Y Dr. H. L. Wilson of Jordan wishes to thank his friends for their kindness since his heavy loss by fire. Died at Paxville Sunday March 1st, Mrs. Margaret Broadway, wife of Mr. J. J. Broadway, aged about 82 years. Died in Sumter March 2nd Mr. James A. Plowden aged about 50 years. The burial took place the next day at Paxville cemetery. The court house commission and the school trustees are receiving many let ters of inquiry with reg.ird to the bonds they have advertised. They tell us that something terrible happened to the men who attended the Turbeville K.. of P. banquet, and it was not a flood of eloquence either. - Married by Rev. W. J. Wilder last Sunday at the home of the groom's parent's, Mr. Jno. M. Reese of Alcolu and Miss Mary Pollock of Blacksburg. Miss May Davis and sister, Mrs. C. S. Davis, of Anniston, Ala., who have been visiting their cousin, Mrs. B. T. Legg, left Monday morning for their home. The New Zion woodmen has a gay time last night at the seine yard near Workman. J. McSwain Woods, Esq., andClerk of Court Barron were in at the feast. All things come to him who waits, after a promise of three years the edi tor was given a fine string of fish by Mr. W. T. Lesesne the most promising man in the county. Capt. S. Y. Barnes, of Foreston, gave us a pleasant call yesterday, and the way he quoted Scripture at us was a revelation. We think John Land'% tutelage has borne fruit. St. Peters lodge of masons will have a special meeting en the evening of the ,25th to confer degrees. Last Wednes day night they had a delightful repast after confering the Master's degree. We urge our readers to pay up their subscriptions, as after the 1st day of April we will not be able to send them THE TimEs on credit. The postal regulations forces us to cut off all de linquent subscribers, and we hope we will not be forced to cut off any. Judge John S. Wilson after finishing court at Edgefield, reached home last Friday will have a two weeks' rest, then he will go to Camden, from there to Columbia, where he will in all prob ability try the dispensary graft cases.L We especially ask our Turbeville subscribers to look at the labels on their paper, if they bave paid to a date bevond she time fixed on the label, call the attention of the party they paid to it. so proper credit can be given before April 1st. Died at his home near Workman last Wednesday, Mr. Evans Harrington, aged about 46 years. The funeral took place at Midfway church Thursday. Rev. James McDowel conducted the service. The deceased left a widow and five children. The court house commission went to Darlington last Wednesday to inspect the court house at that place and this week they go to Newbery. These in spection tours of the Commission are wise, it will put them in a position to avoid the mistakes of other Commis sions. The 87th milestone on the journey of life was reached last Sunday by our fellow citizen Mr. Aaron Loryea, and his friends rejoice with him in having been so wonderfully blessed, and they hope his journey will continue on for years to come, with the smile of God's pleasure. Died yesterday at his home on San tee, Col. S. Warren Nelson, aged 78 year~s. The deceased was in his younger days regarded with great favor, intel ligent, cultured and handsome he easily made friends. He leaves sur viving him his widow, who we are told is desperately ill, and an only son. The people of Foreston should re quire the railroad commission to have reestablished the telegraphoffice at that place. . We regard it an injustice to cut out a telegraph office at a point like Foreston. If the people sit down and submit to such things without uro test, it will not be long before the rail road will only stop its trains there when flagged. Former Judge 0. W. Buchanan was accidentally shot last Monday while riding on a train en route to Augusta, by a stray 22 calibre bullet fired by some one at the passing train. The ball struck him in the back, and he was taken to Augusta where- he died vesterday morning. The deceased was formerly Judge of this circuit and lived in Sumter. Rev. James McDowell, D. D., will assist the Presbyterians in their next communion season. He will preach Thursday, Friday and Saturday pre ceeding the fifth Sabbath in March. First service Thursday night at 8 o'clock. He will also preach on the Sabbath and assist at the communion table. We are sure this announcement will be read with delight by Mr. McDowell's many friends here, and all of the members of the church will need no further exhortation to be present. If you fail to get THE TMS after April 1st, it is your own fault, as we have given you notice of the postal regulations forcing us to drop delinqu ent subscribers. It is no pleasure to us to cut off a whole lot of names, some of whom are perfectly good and will eventually pay, then thpere are some who welcome the new law, because it gives them an opportunity to beat the editor out of an honest debt, that class find great satisfaction in beating any debt, even the undertaker who furn ishes the coffin for their dead. There are some persons in the county making it their business to create false irmsressions with regard to the matter of authorizing the loan of-a portion of the surplus funds in the treasury, for a purpose not intended at the time the tax was paid. The trouble is with such people. they have a-dog-in-the-manger spirit, and cannot conceive of a high motive. At the proper time and place the reasons for the use of this surplus money will be given by the author of the legislation. Let it suffice for the present to say, the money is to be used in the public service, and there will be no room for the little ticky politician Another Crown Jewel. Died last Saturday afternoon in Man ning. 'Mrs. Lily Scott Bagnal, in the 37th year of her age, wife of Capt. I. I. Bagnal. The deceased leaves surviv ing besides her husband and six chil dren, two sisters, NMrs. W. E. Brown, of Manning, and Mrs. R. C. Blanding, of DuRant. The funeral service took place in the church in which she was reared, Pres byterian, Sunday afternoon. The pall bearers were young men who were or had been members of her household, Messrs. Dr. J. A. Cole, Oliver O'Bryan, C. J. Lesesne, Lutie Plowden, Willie O'Bryan, and Lucius Harvin. The church was filled to its utmost capacity, not only the people of Manning, but many from the country were present to bear testimony of love for the deceased and sympathy for the bereaved. It was an immense congregation of sincerely sorrowing friends. The service was conducted by Rev. A. R. Woodson, assisted by Rev. C. A. Waters, of the Baptist church, and Rev. D. A. Phillips, of the Methodist church. After the church service the immense throng followed the funeral cortege to the cemetery where the beautiful and impressive service was concluded. As loving hands were ten derly laying upon the tomb the many floral tributes, and moistening them with their tears, the sun was fast sink ing amid the hallowed silence. "Scatterin: his beams about him as he sinks. And gilding heaven above, and seas beneath, With paint no mortal pencil can express." And when the benediction was pro nounced many lingered with heavy hearts for silent prayer, for the de parted and her grief-stricken loved ones. Lily Witherspoon Bagnal, was the third daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Junius E. Scott. She spent her entire life in Manning, and from her child hood to the moment God called her to eternal bliss, she was beloved-a gen eral favorite. Her childhood and young womanhood was ideal; pretty, bright, intelligent and lovable disposition. In May, 1892, she became the wife of Capt. I. I. Bagnal, and leaves to him six children. Her home life was char acteristic, cheerful, affectionate, mod est, wife and mother. She toiled and lived for her children, to bring them up in the right way, her world was her home, and her loveliness was shared by her neighbors and friends. in the death of this noble woman, the writer feels that he too shares in the loss, for he has known her intimately since her early childhood, and learned to regard her, as if of his own. And as he feels, so do others who were neigh bors at any time, the contact with the lovely :child, and noblest of women, was to make its impress for all time. Death, naturally brings sadness, it bursts the wellsprings of the heart, and tears flow, but, when we know of the promise of a meeting in the great beyond-the resurrection: "Even such is time. that takes on trust Our youth. our joys, our all we have. And pays us but with age and dust: Who in the dark and silent grave. When we have wander'd all our ways, Shuts up the story of our days: But from the earth. this grave, this dust. My (;od shall raise me up, I trust:' The consolation is great, it is solac ing to feel that when death has robbed us of those we love, we can still cherish the hope of a grand re-union when we "shall come anparell'd in more precious habit," and when the grating sounds of a busy earth is re placed by the sweet sounds of heavenly joy. cei3musy o ITCH cured in 30 minutes by Wool ford's Sanitary Lotion.

Senator Appelt went to~ :-he Senate (as he himself stat ed) p'edged to do all in his power to repeal the lien law. Now what we want to know is how he could cast his vote to kill the bill to repeal the lien law after being pledged as above stated. Now we all know Senator Appelt to be an able worket in the Senate as was shown by the success of his bills. _Of course the Senator had the co-operatio~n of the delegation in the House or it would hnave been practically impossible for him to meet with any degree of suc Mr. Appelt did you vote to kill the Richards bill on the account of the in fuence of LeGrand G. Walker*~ When our county's delegation left for Columbia we felt confident that not only those in the House, who did their part all o. k., but our Senator would at the first opportunity exert all his in fluence to bring about a repeal of the lien law. Does anyone think that by advocat ing a repeal of the lien law a candidate can ride into office at the next election. Some may, "but you can't fool all the people all the time." A few men in the Senate must think they have a lot of sense to oppose the judgment of the House on two separate occasions in regard to the repeal of the iew law. There were only twenty six votes cast on the Richards bill. Where were the other Senators they could not vote on this important measure? Work ed to death? R. D. WHITE. Alcolu, R. F. D. March 13, 08. The Senator voted against the Rich ard's bill because it did not provide for the repeal of the lien law as demanded by the people. He introduced an amendment to cover the demand of the people but those who were Dretending to want the lien law repealed voted against the amendment.TheSenatorear re dout the instructions given him by a mass meeting of citizens of this county, viz- "To vote for the repeal of all laws which permitted a lien or mortgage to be given on a crop before it was plant ed." The Richards bill only provided for the repeal of liens drawn under section 3059 which is the old form of lien and, which, has been out of use for years, to repeal it without repealing the mortgage on crop is nothing short of doing away with the shadow and let the substance stand. The Senator car ried out his pledge faithfully, and he is always ready to give answer to any citizen when questioned about his pub li acts. Now for the iuformation of Mr. R. D. White, the Senator will state to his question "Does anyone think that by advocating a repeal, of the lien law a candidate can ride into office at the next election?" If his question means that the Senator when a candidate advocated the repeal of the lien law, Mr. White is mistaken. Mr. Appelt as a candidate and as an editor spoke and wrote against the repeal of he lien law. He was not elected to the Senate on any such issue. The people of Clarendon knew his personal views on this subject when they voted for him and afterwards. At a mass meet ing however, called by the Senator, in which he felt bound by the meeting's action, a resolution was adopted over his opposition, and by that resolution he stood. EDITOR THE TIMES.

For thirty-five years the taxes in this town stayed at the same figure, never exceeding two mills. Last year they were suddenly raised two hundred and fifty per cent. There was no public calamity, and no reason, so far as the general public knew. for this great and unexpected increaze. The members of the Council never vouchsafed any ex planation and the citizens of this town are yet in the dark as to the reason for this large increase in taxes and the necessity for it. in addition to this, rumor says tLt the town is considerably in debt, but of this I have no knowledge and this rumor way be incorrect. The old Council is seeking re-elee tion. By this I mean that five mem bers out of seven-a clear majority and thus legally and morally responsible for each act of that Council,-are seek ing election on the new Council. These five members are chargeable with the increase in taxes. because if they had Lot agreed to it the increase would not have been made. Now, the friends of my opponent are stating that I am for high taxes and that they are for low taxes. There is absolutely no reason for this assertion so far as I can see. I certainly would oppose any further increase in taxes in view of the experience of the past, and I would prefer putting the levy back to where it has been, but at any rate it seems to me that this town should be run and pay all of its expenses and run on a progressive and liberal pla.a upon a levy not as high as th e present one. If the old Council has; ndt accumulat ed debts so that it will be impossible to run the affairs of the town upon the present levy, then I ce rtainly will be opposed to any increase in property taxes and will favor a decrease of the street taxes to two dollars as it for merly was. I am not posing as an advocate of stinginess in the conduct of any busi ness, but in the light of the above, it seems to me that I have more right to claim to be for low taxes than my op ponents.
