Mr. W. T. Lesesne the most promising

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

-Did You, or D. on Not?
We have been waiting for some one
to give us some explanation of the ac
tion of our Senator concerning the
repeal of the lien law. 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.

High Taxes.
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. Iespectfully,
