Our views on the State pension
business were freely expressed year
ago, and they have not since changed.
We think it a very unjust law. We
believe that if a pension IS granted,
It ought to be granted to all alike.
The man who lost limb in the SER
vice Of his State, and yet who has
since, by energy and honesty, accu-
mulated a little property and is sup.
porting his family, is more worthy,
far more worthy, of help than is that
man, who, lazy and shiftless, becomes
pauper, and makes no support for
himself and family. We believe in
giving equally to every man
who lost a limb, or who Was dis
abled by service in the war, and ev-
cry widow of the Confederacy should
have a pension.
We are told that in several cases in
this county considerable dissatisfac-
tion is manifested. The State board
has granted pensions when not recon-
mended and endorsed by the home
boards, and the State board has de-
cined to grant pensions in several
cases, where the home boards were full
II convinced that pensions ought to be
granted. We have not inquired into
the names or circumstances of any OF

GreenYille Farmers will have Nothing to
do with Jute Bagsing.

GEEENvu.LE, June S.-The Greenvillt
County Farmers Alliance called meeting
in the Court Honse at II O'Clock to-day
Nearly every every sub-a!liance was repre-
sented. The meeting WAS attended by one
hundred delegates. The object of the
meeting was TO consider the adoption Of
cotton bagging as covering for the mex;
crop Of cotton. The meeting was enthasi.
astic from beginning to end. The follow,
ing resolution, unanimously adopted, will
explain the action taken by the meeting:
ReSolrsi, That we, the Grecnville CoHnty
Farmers Alliance, adopt cotton basgiug rs
q covering for our next cotton crop against
any and all covering held and sold rs trust
bagging. and that We order as many yards
as are necessary.
EeSolred, That We, the Farmers Alliance
of Greenville county, refuse to buy or Use
trust jute bagsiny foc covering our present
crop of cotton, and that We Will withdraw
our patronage from any merchants or gin
merry who keep the same Tor sale.
NJ L. Donaldson, business agent OF the
county alliance, was instructed to ascertain
from each Sub-alliance the amount of cotton
bagsins needed by its members, and he
will buy it for them.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1889-06-12
similar things are done.

Cotton bagging against jute bag,
ging is the great case now on trial be,
fore the Southern farmers. Last
year the jute manufacturers formed 8
trust, and raised the price. The far,
mers were naturally incensed at it
Now the cry is down with iute at an.
cost. Cotton or pine straw IS to take
its place. And we don't see why II
can't. It will cost more the first year
possibly the first few years, but then
it will eventually be sold at low prices
However, we publish an article from
prominent Charleston firm which
gives practical view of the matter
We also publish the action of the
Farmers Alliance in several counties
wherein they swear eternal war and
enmity to iute bagging. This is a a
matter that needs close and careful
attention. IN a multitude Of coun-
selors there is safety.

500 REWARD. SlG0

The readers of the TINES will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure in
all its stages, and that is catarrh. Halls
catarrh cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity Catarrh
being constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls catarrh
cure is taken internally. acting directly up
on the blood and mucus surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength, by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work The
proprietors have so much faith in its cura-
tive powers, that they offer one hundred
dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

A is sad, lamentable fact, the
Way in which parents treat the educa-
ton of their children. They think
that when they send their children to
school they have done their whole
duty. a visit is never made to the
school house. They do not care
whether their children are provided
with hard, uncomfortable benches for
seats, or with conyenientand comfort
able desks. They do not seemingly
care about the moral training of their
children. This is all wrong, and dis
couraging alike to teacher and pupils.
The teacher loves to think that the
parents are interested in his work,
asaS IS 1Ia32ils are delighted and slim
afssed By the visits and iateress~efftne
parents. We speak from experience.
In seven years experience in this
place, scarcely dozen parents have
visited our school, and we cannot re-
call a single visit made by public
school trustee. The school commits
sioner has been to see US three or four
times, and the State Superintendent
of Education about the same number
of times. There is food for thought
in this article.

Don't kill all the grass. Save an
acre, plough it up, and let the grass
grow: Cut it of at the proper time,
and four or five times the proht viii
be realized as off an acre of corn OF
cotton. Fodder is now generally
considered almost valueless as food
for stock. Hay is the best kind OF
food. Fodder is expensive to gather.
Hay is easily harvested, cultivated at
small cost, and yields big profit:
Therefore, by all means, don't kill all
the grass, but let part Of it grow
into bay. But keep the corn and
cotton fields free of grass. If you
-ssse hay, raise hay; if corn or cotton,
keep it clean, and raise only the one
crop.

To Delinquent Subscribers.

From business principles and
from past experience in the news
paper business, we are fully con-
vinced that the indiScriminate
credit system is Very pernicious
| in its effects. The MANNING TINES
will consequently, after July 4th,
be run on cash basis, Or very
short credit. On July 9TH, 1889.
unless satisfactory arrangements
have been previously made, the
names of all subscribers who are
in arrears as far back as March /,
1888, will be stricken from our
list. We have about a hundred
such names, and while We dislike
very much the idea of losing so
many subscribers, yet we had
rather lose them than run the risk
of losing three or four times as
many hundred dollars. If the
TINES is worth anything it is
worth $50 year; and any per
son who during the years time
cannot pay this small sum had
best not take the paper at all.
We are endeavoring to publish
a good, readable, lively paper. II
you think We are worthy Of being
sustained in our effort, pay us the
small sum you owe US; if not, we
shall be compelled to discontinue
the paper to your address after
July 4th.
After July 4th, 1889, all sub
scribers to The MANNING TINES,
who are in arrears for more than
sixteen months ($2) will cease to
receive the TINES. Don't you
think it would be fair and just to
pay US this balance now, when we
need it so much?

About the JohnstoWn Flood.

JoHNsrowS. Pa, June S.-Rain fell here
from midnight to daylight, but towards noon
the clouds disappeared and the sun came
out strong The smoke Of the burning tim
Der spread itself over the entire valley and
seriously hindered the labors Of the work
men. The air, too, was filed with offensive
odors of the fast decomposing bodies Of
human beings and animals.
It is beyond human power now to take out
any more bodies tina. can be even identified.
and therefore the protection Of the lives Of
those here will soon demand that heroic
measures shall be taken in the interest Of
the general welfare. The exigencies of the
occasion demand that upon the recovery Of
remains they shall be Immediately buried.
This is what will undoubtedly be the out
come of affairs before Monday.

Contagious Blood Poison

is the constitutional blood disease
which has for several centuries past
been infesting mankind with its an
moving features and destructive re-
suits, and is now the great bane of
the human race. This is the worst of
all blood contaeion, as the horrible
poison is transmitted from one gener-
alton to the next, and even the third
and fourth. We do not honestly be-
lieve that the terrible scourge has ev-
er been cured and thoroughly eradi-
Gated from the human body by any
other remedy than Swift's Specific,
and we further say that Swifts Spe.
cifc has never been known to fail to
make permanent cure in any case
! when it has been taken before any of
the vital organs had become so i'm
paired as to render a cure impossible.

Swift's Specific entirely cured me
OF a severe case of blood poison
which obstinately resisted and refused
to be cured for over 26 years. The
regular medical remedies Of mercury
and potash only added fuel to the
fame. I suffered during most of this
long time with ulcers, blotches and
sores of the most offensive character,
and was for a long time practically
an invalid. In less than thirty days
use Of S. S. S. I was all cleared up
sound and we'll. This has been near
ly year ago, and no sign of any re-
turn of the old enemy.

EOw IT WILL CC DONE.

Five prominent gentlemen from different
sections of the county will be requested to
give away the prizes, in the following man
ner:
These gentlemen Will place in one box a
number of tickets equal to the number of
paid up subscribers, all Of which tickets
will be blank except the eight prize tickets.
They will then place in another similar box
an equal number of tickets, containing the
names Of the paid up subscribers, one name
on each ticket After the tickets have been
carefully inspected and placed in the boxes,
they will be thoroughly shaken up and mix
ed together, until the committee is satisfied
that everything is fair and just. Then the
drasin,s 2l hn2ir Iva liss1a lee:9
four or FIVE years - Eill be blindfolded,
and one will draw from the box containing
the names OF the paid up subscribers and
the other from the box containing the tick
cts. The committee will ut every drawing
zone from each box) inspect the tickets that
have been drawn and announce the result
For instance, suppose the little boys have
each drawn ticket from their respective
boxes. The name drawn by one little boy
is Always Loseum, and the ticket drawn by
the other is blank. That means Mr.. a
. Ioseum has failed to secure prize. The
little boys draw again. The name is l.ncky
! Fellow, and the prize ticket has sewing ma.
chine on it. That means Mr.. L. Fellow
has secured the sewing machine for his
prize The drawing will thus continue till
al the prizes hare been given away.
This plan seems to US as fair rs possible,
and to have the Least objections. Our sub
seribers may rest satisfied that everything
will be done in fairness.
