I | Former President of Union Cotton | Mills Secures order from f Federal Court. Greenville, Sept. 1.?United L i States District Judge Brawley p I signed an order here yesterday' F granting a diseharge in bankruptcy to Thomas C. Duncan, formerly p president of the Union and Buffalo Kjj Mills Tit Union. There was some IE ! objection to the order at first, but P tiinally all oppositon was with- L| drawn and the paper was signed by p conseht of all attorneys present. B Attorney Stack house, representing j| ! the stockholders in tlie new Union s Mills Company, was disposed to I i hold up the discharge, but it was I pointed out by J. A. McUullough, ^ |of this city, and J. 1'. K. Bryan, of = Charleston, representing others in- iji terested, that in view of the fact ^ that Mr. Stackhoiise's clients had ? no interest in the old corporations, JjJ they w< re not creditors of Mr. p lninean ami luui no legal -tamlnig J* in the bankruptcy proceedings, tin- E new corporation being entirely j| separate and distinct from tlx- h< property managed I?y Mr. Duncan. || ?Spartanburg .journal. Ansel and Manning?Their Records. Neither pleasure nor profit is to ; l>e found in attacking at this time * the records of the candidates for I (iovernor, hut the Sumter Item, a f | newspaper published in Mr. Man- i j ning's home town, persists in eriti- ? i cism of Mr. Ansel which require J that the contrast between the " courses that the two men have pur- I sued he fairly presented. f In 11102, as the Item says, Mr. | | Ansel was a dispensary man as | t were all the candidates for Clover- . nor. The dispensary did not1 ' figure as an issue in the contest. ! ( Mr. Ansel's personal preferences! ( | have always been fok prohibition of ^ j the sale of intoxicating beverages. j i loiter came the revelations of j wholesale corruption in the State * Dispensary so that the question was ( presented in a new guise. Condi- ; ( lions absolutely changed, and j | thousands of minds changed. For) j example, it was not until the] Legislative session of 190.">, we 1 ' believe, that reports of corruption 1 t induced Mr. H. I. Manning to in-! ( troduce his hill designed to com-, j pletely change the methods of dis- j | pensary administration. Mr. An-' sel concluded as did thousands of good men, that the State Dispell- , ~ jsary must go and announced his 1 ~ 1 1 conclusion eighteen months or a! year ago. The disclosures of c?>i! ruption wrought complete changes' " in tlie minds of Ansel, Manning r and Senator Tillman ? the former 1 . r being convinced that it could not ' he cleansed and the two latter that ; it"-could he. j Mr. Manning was a legislator when the dispensary bill was origi nally introdueed and voted against r it. He changed his mind and at } some time or other, we do not ' 1 know when, became a dispensary advocate. Many former anti-dh- " ! i pensary men's opinions underwent, ' the same change and we certainly! . : elo not intimate that Mr. Manning I was a "weakling" or a "straddler" 1 5 j liecause of this alteration in his 5 views. i I Some two years ago, we believe, 1 ' Mr. Manning voted for the I>ri? < 1 law." 1 'j On the 26th of June, 1906, Mr. 1 :! Manning's platform was printed in : j which he declared himself opposed j ' to local option, arguing that it was: undeni9cratic, and contending that the same liquor laws should a only : to all the counties in the state. i .! About six weeks later in the: j ' campaign, at the Gaffney meeting, ^ if memory serves us right, Mr. j j Manning pronounced himself as in I favor of the counties being perI mitted to decide for themselves between prohibition and dispen-' \ J paries, the Brice law to be modified as to the method of the counties declaring their choice. This spells' i local option as between prohibition and dispensaries. We have not thought it proper or advisable to impute insincerity or demagogy either to Mr. Manning 1; or to Mr. Ansel, but we have called : attention to the records. If Mr. I Manning's friends insist upon rais- j ing the point of eon-istency, the | challenge is accepted, and the j fullest examination and comparison ' 1 of the records of both candidates is j invited by the friend of Mr. Ansel. j ?News and Courier. , . m c 'Protracted Meeting.
