THE REPUBLICAN rEcoNvEN-
TON.
The Number Of Delegates which the
Different Towns are Entitled To.

The following is the list of delegates which
each town will be entitled to at the Republi-
can State Conventions at Bangor April
26th and at Portland June 2Sth. The
basis of representation is as follows: Each
city, town, and plantation shall be entitled
to one delegate, and for each seventy five
votes cast for the Republican candidate for
Governor in 1884, an additional delegate, and
for fraction of seventy-fiye votes an addi-
tional delegate.

Vote Next Tuesday.

Every Democrat must 80 to the polls
next Tuesday, and not only vote himself,
but do all he can to get every doubtful voter
at the polls and to vote the straight Demo
cratic ticket. South Carolina, Of course, is for
Cleveland, but let Us pile up the biggest
vota and majority on record for this State.
LIE. every body 90 and vote, and get his
friend and neighber to go and vote.
The Republicans will make death ssrug-
gle tc elect Harrison, for if they are defeat
ed this time the party will have but little
life left. They are spending millions and
millions Of dollars on this election.
Don't forget the Federal boxes: that is
where we wish the heaviest voting done,
and We belie7e we shall get 1t. The colored
voter has long ere this learned that the
Yankee promise OF forty acres and mule
is ali myth; as, also. that Democratic 81
premacy meant negro slavery. They have
seen that Democratic government means
good government, low taxes. peace, and
prosperity. We want them to vote with
Us, and we believe that next Tuesday they
will assert sheis freedom and manhood, and
vote for Cleveland and Dargan, and for the
State and county ticket.

Bright Prospects.

The commercial prospects Of Manning
are brighter and more promising than fol
years past, and the town, We think, to be
on the progressive move, and will yet rank
among the business places Of the State.
It must be admitted that we are surround
ed with facilities which only lack develop
ment to,elevate us to this desirable position.
Oar merchants are beginning to realize tho
important factor they must play in the util-
izatlon of these natur,l resources. It lies
with them to see that the Manning market
furnishes the inducenent for buying and
selling, and as an evidence of their Iabors
to this end the prices of cotton here this
seaso in uparison with quotations at
the exporting u:;,its, have been mcst fat
tering to the place. And again the attract
i've advertisements in the TINES inviting
the public to trade here shows their d;Spo-
Stion to compete with other markets, and
their large and choice assortment Of goods
enable them to successfully do so.
Our town is indeed on the upward march,
and there is reason to expect great things of
Manning yet. Then let US be up and q do
ing with fresh hope and renewed energies;
and all hands pulling together we will sue
ceed in lettering our own condition as we'll
as thst Of our town.

The Usual Result.

It is not to be denied that good sewing
machine is one of the most important ap-
purteuances of the modern household.
We thought we had good machine un-
til one day the agent of the New HOME pre-
sented himself at the door and proceeded
to deliver an grafton upon its Characteristic
merits.
But" we answered, "our machine suits
Us we'll and we do not care for another"
The agent however, begged the privilege
of leaving one Of his machines with cs, 'Tor
the ladies to try"
The request was not unreasonable, so we
granted it-but more to oblige the agent
than anything else; for we really did not
want the machine, and had not the remot-
est idea of buying it.
The machine once in the house, it. was
natural that the ladies should look it over;
they did so, and as a consequence fell IN
love with it. They say that without the
slightest wish to decry or disparage any
other machine. this, all taings considered,
is, in their opinion, the most desirable one
to be had.
This unrivalled machine is manufactur'
ed ry the NEW HOME SEWING Ma.

LAKE. CRY, Oct. 29.-Mr. Eligie Sauls,
who has been attending to the ginning and

we stand ready to refund the purchase
price, if satisfactory results do not follow
their use. These remedies have won their
great popularity purely on their merits.

Some Advertising Rates.

The Ne,o York Herald charges s26,2O3 per
year for its lowest priced columns, and
sls4,0OO per year for its highest priced
Notwithstanding these figures, the adver-
tising patronage of the paper is excellent:
Doubtless the business men who spend
their money in this direction have discov-
cred that such expenditure is frst-class
investment. Upon this theory only may
we account for the readiness with which the
Herald fills its advertising space at seem
ingly enormous figures.

adaptation Of the recent Jackson
riot We all know the patent adjustable

hate born Of the disappointment at not
Organizing the colored vote o. the rouih

In reply TO Senator Wilson's tarangue
on the Jackson riot, Senator WaIthaI
of Mississippi made a cool and digniiled
reply, s,igmatizing the Republican plan
of Misrepresentation just as it had been,
and particularly branding the assertion
that Ithe Republican Mayor of Jackson
had been a good officer.
He, however, went to the bottom OF
the affair as to the facts and then stated
that it was impossible for The white peo-
pie Of The South to submit to the negro
domination as proposed by the RepublI-
cans. The abuse of power by igno-
rance stimulated to wrong by carpet
baggers vas well known in all the South

table representation in Stale and munich

fuse with which to fire the North once

vauced, and patriotic people of all par
ties in the North will denounce the at-

cases of violence brought before the sen
ate were no, within he pale of Federal

Cinnamon were not treated as the Re

remind the Southern people of the i'm
peratiye necessity of preserving the
power and protection of the Democratic
party
If there has been any inclination to-
wards protection in any sections Of lhe
South we had as well consider the very
plain fac; that in case of Republican vic
tory we might have per cent. more OF
protection for some manufactures and no
protection at all over rights.
