On last Sunday afternoon the home of Mr. W. H. Creecy came near being destroyed by fire. Mr. and Mrs. Creecy were out walking and when they re turned found fire burning in a closet in their bed room. It was extinguished without damage. The Times editor reached home last evening from New York where he had been on a very sad mission. The ex pressions of sympathy that has been given him byfriends at home and abroad is depy appreciated, and he hopes and feels this visitation of afflic tion has already had its influence to wards his future life.

This leaflet set. forth very clearly our duty as a steward and teaches responsibility as stewards. We had fourteen members present. Recently our attendance has greatly increased. Every woman in the church should feel very close to this phase of church work. We elected as delegates to the Dis trict convention, Mrs. Wilbur Rollings and Mrs. L. A. Graham.

There will also be a float. After the parade, we will return to the court house where there will be a prayer, a few words of welcome and short talks by our distinguished visitors Mr. W. W. Long, state agent of the men's and boy's work, Miss Edith L Parrott, state agent of the girls work and Mrs. Dora D. Walker, organizer for Barn well county. I am sure that they will each tell us a number of interesting and helpful things. We will all sing America and the club girls will give their yell and a song which I composed for them. We expect to can tomatoes and beans by the latest approved methods and have for exhibit five or six different kinds of canners, two home made ones, cans, jars and everything necessary for canning. - Mr. McFaddin and I are putting forth every effort to make this day a pleasant and profitable one. We hop that there will be a big crowd not only of boys and girls but of men women as well. Come out that day and show that you are interested in the extension work; that you want Clarendon to come to the front in all things. KATHERINE M. RICHARDSON, Agent C. C. C. C. The Majority Should Rule. During the past session of the Legis. lature, there was a great deal said about tightening up the prima ry sys tem of South Carolina, and several bills introduced for that purpose and it my memory serves me correctly I think in each of these bills It would ;be re quired of the voter to have a tax re ceipt, at that time I could not under stand why a man should be required to present a tax receipt to vote in a primary election. Now 1 can see it in a differentaway. We have a candidate now for gover nor, who says he is in favor of the poor man being exempted from taxation, now if you please put these two move ments togetner, and what do we see, we find one man in favor of exempting the poor man from paying taxes, then we jind others who want a tax receipt exhibited before a man be allowed to vote, therefore, if the poor are exempt ed from taxes, they have no tax receipt; can we vote? I believe I would voice the sentiment of the majority of the white people of South Carolina, iflIwas to say we pre fer to pay a few dollars taxes, and be accorded the same privileges at the ballot box, the then called rich would While we have seen enough of this litical world to know all our officers onot see things alike, and favor the same thing, for we have a governor now who is in favor of a two cent flat rate on all railroads, and in favor of preventing white people teaching in colored schools, etc., and we had law makers In the legislature this year who was not willing for these measures to come to a vote, let alone to become law. With such divisions made as above mentioned, we hope for peace and harmony to prevail in this Christian land of ours. No, I think laot, in my humble judment there is only one way for the people to get together. aind that i this, while I know all cannot. or will not vote for the same mau for any office, but when the majority expresses their will I think it is time then for the minority to submzit. ir not I do no. know wnat the word Democracy means. To make my arigument plain, say I will vote for John for governor and another fellow votes for Jim, and John is dfeated and I am disappointed, and Jim is defeated, and the other fellow successful in seeing his man victorious. If I am a true Democratl will accept Jim as my governor and hve the same respect for him I would have had for Jon. for I am no better to be disap pointed than the other fellow. For after all the shouting and hurrah for this man and the other man is con cerned, as to who is elected to any ofice. so far as dollars and cents and favo's is concerned, it is like the good book says, there is no difference.

The third annual Clarendon Count] Field Day, which was held in Manning last Friday, proved a gratifying sue cess in every particular. There was z large attendance from all sections o: the county, and the people who assem bled to witness the varied contest made up a well-dressed, good-naturei throng that would be a credit to an3 community. Every one seemed to be in a good humor, and tbe enlivening music of Schumachers band from Sum ter added zest to the occasion. Froni early morning to about the noon bour all roads leading to town were throng ed with vehicles and all day long the streets of the town were crowed. No only was Manning and Clarendon Coun ty well represented, but there were al so many visitors here from adjoining Counties and more distant points. In the various contests scheduled for the day representatives of twenty-twc schools took part, but teachers. pupils, trustees and patrons of a number ol other schools were here to enjoy the gala day. The declamation contest was held in the Court House and the large audi. torium was filled to overflowing to hear the highly creditable efforts of the young people. All were meritorious and the judges had a difficult job in deciding upon the winners, who were as follows: DECLAMATION WINNERS. Boys under 14 years, Capers Sprott, Foreston. Girls under 14 years. Mildred Smith, Manning. Boys over 14 years, Rodger Mood, Summerton. Girls over 14 years, Annie Dickson, Manning.

Foreston school, having won the greatest number of honors in the con tests of the day, was awarded the Ru ral School Banner for the next year. This banner has been held by Deep Creek school during the past year. The cemetery committee of the Man nlig Civic League, served lunch ice cream and cake on the vacant lot op posite the school grounds, the proceeds going to the benefit of the work that the committe has in hand. With the crowded condition of the streets it is a matter of gratification that the entire day pasd without any accident or untowar incident. On the whole, Manning and Clarendon Coun ty are to be congratulated on the suc cess of the annual field day. The last feature on the day's pro grammie was a baseball game between Lake City and Manning, which result ed in a score of 11 to 7 mn favor of Man ning. During the day the Manning Grocery Company served tea, sandwiches and soft drinks as a compliment to the visitors.'. Only one candidate appeared on the grounds. He distributed his cards, but was otherwise unobtrusive. Honor Roll-Mannfag Graded School.

The parole follows closely the recon mendations made by Mr. Purdy. I grants Hogan release upon the paa ment of $100 to the city, subject to th proviso that he shall serve out hi term, if be is ever again convicted c selling or handling liquor in any fort or is convicted in some other Stat and brought back to this State. It was known that efforts were be ing made to secure Hogan's pardo and the news that a parole had bee granted came as something expected t many of the people of Sumter. Th opinion of those heard discu.sing th matter seemed divided. Many seemei to think that the sentence was too se vere for the offense and that a paroll should have been granted. Other seemed to think that Hogan shoul have served out his term, or at leas served out more of it before a parol was granted. It is oot known whether steps will b taken by the city to oppose the actio1 of the governor, as was recently th case in Dillon. Mr. Clifton, the at torney representing the city in th case was out of town, and Mayor Jen nings could not be located. The Re corder stated that he did not know and he had nothing more to do wit the case. -Sumter Item 19th. Governor Blease May Go.

Joe Hogan, convicted in the Record er's Court on one hundred counts of vi olation of the dispensary law, was this morning released from the county jail by sheriff Bradford upon the receipt of a parole from Governor Cole L. Blease, who had been presented with a petition from citizens of the county asking that the parole be granted and upon the in tercession of Mr. R. 0. Purdy. This case is one of the most interest ing liquor cases which nas ever come up in this State and has created a great deal of comment all over the State because of the extremely large fine -or sentence of imprisonment im posed upon the convicted man. The case came up before R. Dozier Lee, Recorder, in Febrony 'v or March, 1913, and Hogan was convicted on three cas es of the thirty-three cases, and, upon an understanding between the attor neys in tho case, he was to plead guilty to the rest of the cases, if found guilty on the three cases which would be re garded as test cases. The case was later appealed from the Recorder's Court to the Circuit Court because of the fail ure of the Recorder to have witnesses affix their signatures to their testi mony at the time it was taken. The case was remanded to trial in the cir cuit court, but overruled in the Su preme C"ourt and the Recorder sus tained. Upon the receipt of the decision of the Supreme Court, Hogan was taken to jail. This was on the 7th of Janiu ary and he has been in jail until Friday morning, just three months and ten days. The parole was received last night by Mr. Eugene Hogan. the fath er of the convicted man, and he paid the fine of $100 and Joe Hogan was re leased on order of the sheriff. The petition for Hogan's pardon were circulated about the city and county for several weeks and were re cently sent to Governor Blease. They contained about a thousand signatures, some of the names affixed being of the promisent men of the city. Mr. R. 0. Purdy recently visited Gov. Blease concerning the granting of a pardon, acting as a private citizen. At this time Gov. Blease asked what recommendation be, Mr. Purdy, would make. Mr. Purdy upon his return to Sumter had a conference with the Re corder concerning the matter of a par don. A copy of the Recorder's letter could oot be obtained, but in substance it stated the facts in the case and that the Recorder thought that the time had not come to consider the granting of a pardon. He did not consider that Hogan nad yet served a sufficient part of his sentence to take up the matter of pardon, although steps might be taken at some future time to secure the par don. The letter was sent to Mr. Purdy and was transmitted to Gov. Blease with Mr. Purdy's letter of recommen dation on the case. Mr. Purdy's letter follows: Hon. Cole L. Blease, Gov. Columbia, S. C. Dear Sir: I hand you herein the h.me petitions in the cases of the City of Sumter against Joe Hogan. I enclose you also the reply of R. Dozier Lee, Esq., to my letter to him of the 11th inst. a copy of which I requested sent from the office to you at the time of writting to Mr. Lee, and I have no doubt that you have received such copy in due course of mail. Mr. Lee's letter speaks for itself. It is difficult to make a suggestion which will meet the requirements of this case in all of its aspects. Having undertaken, as a citizen, to suggest that clemency in this case would be proper on your part, and having been asked by you to make some suggestion as to the proper disposition of the case. I suggest the following: 1 That you meake an order commut ing the unexpired term of his sentence to one year, and relieve the fine entire ly, except as herein stated. 2 That you require the payment of one hundred dollars to the City of Sumter, and that upon such payment the defendant be paroled during good behavior, and if again convicted in any court in this State for selling li quor, that he be remanded to the coun ty jail of Sumter County for the unex pired term of one year. Upon payment of $100, that he be re leased on parole. Of course if he fails to pay the $100 he will have to serve out the one year, to be released within. that time upon the payment of the $100. You will be able to pus your views in fewer words, if you adopt the sugges tion here made. In any event, I ap prehend that both you and I will not feel free from criticism. I do not think that a condition should be that he would leave the State. While I think that would be the bests thing for him to do voluntarily, yet I do not recommend this as being com pulsory. I saw the defendant on Saturday,I but had then reached no conclusion aI - IU Vici Ready Have you ~ lately?
