UNDOUBTEDLY two or three million people have been omitted from the cen sus by Superintendent Porter. and thereby conGre ssionNl representation is very greatly reduced in democratic states. Now, if Porter had only been able to devise some way to reduce regis ration and voting as we'll as population in democratic localities he and his party would be supremely happy. But unfor- tunately for the cause of imperialism that could not be done. The army of democratic voters grows apace, no heed how much the population may be count ed down.

THERE is urgent need for an authorita- tive judicial decision upon the anti lottery law. Probably the members of congress when they passed the bill knew what they wanted to accomplish, but in depreciation of the meaning of the sta tute has thus far been left to the post. masters of the country, with an occa- sional supervisory judgment by the postmaster-general. Reports are coming in from all parts of the country that under this condition of things the circu- lation of newspapers is being interfered with in the widest manner imaginable. Some of these officials out in the wild west have begun to throw out, as un- mailable, newspapers containing notices of turkey rallies and the like. One newspaper was stopped because it told about the rafflS of fancy sofa pillow for the benefit of distressed household. Instances of & like character are multi plying daily.

ACCORDING to a newspaper report, Andrew Carnegie recently committed himself to very curious statement, He averred that the annual salary of the Prince of Wales would suffice to keep 30, ,000 people for year. Now, the an nual salary of the Prince of Wales is $575, ,0O0. Divided up among 30,0O0 peo. pie, it would amount to just about S19 apiece. Mir Carnegie seems to have very queer ideas as to the sum of money that would support an American working man, or, indeed, workingman of any nationality, and enable him to provide the necessaries of life for himself and for his family.

News from Jordan.

JORDAN, July 9.-The 1illman and
Anti -Tillman are having big fight
but from the signs of the times, moi
as big as It's going to be. I hope the
political dispute, or as 'Ben" terms il
ssfamily quarrel" may soon end. Il
is indeed serious matter to see good
Democrats on dispute which is like
ly to end with some unpleasantress
Let US think we'll in this campaign
and not let it be "'76." Let us hear
both sides of the question, and per,
haps we can arrive at a better con-
clusion.
The farmers are suffering for rain
without rain soon the corn crop will
be cut short a great deal. Cotton is
very fine, and with good seasons there
will certainly be good yield.

The first resulted in favor of Jordan
by a score of "a to 10. Jordan also

Haunted Chamber and Welded Bliss.

WILSON'S, July I've have been waiting
and watching for you to commence another
continued story in the TINES. know it to
be a fact that quite q number Of your sub
scrbers, nearly every one in this communi-
ty, were highly pleased with 1.-The Haunted
Chamber, and all join in the wish that you
give us another. l know there are some of
our good people who object to continued
stories because they are little on the style
of the novel, but surely they can't object to
a story that was as interesting and highly
instructive as The Haunted Chamber 1t
is true that it showed Oft to perfection some
of the darker shades OF life, but is it posi-
BILE that our good people have become so
good as not to want the younger focks to
look upon the darker sides of life at all We
all know that life cannot be all sunshine,
and we claim that as clouds must come soon
er or later, that it is much better that we
should study the dark as we'll rs the bright
sides of life so that we may know and pre-
pare against them. The Haunted Cham
ber" gave US Il good lesson when it showed
so distinctly the perfections Of noble char
acter born of good principles and noble
impulses, so we say give US another.
Now, suppose we suppose little. Suppose

poor men had to live in "single cussedness"

We are "cussin,'" for you know single
cussedness" is part of an old adage. And,
by the way, suppose we suppose little
more on that. Suppose two men meet say
30 and 20 years OF age, respectively. The
man Of 81 looks as if he had been put
through the ''seven cities" the coolest Of
which wasn't near like an ice factory, while
the man of 20 seemed to be in great trouble
too, but of q different nature altogether He
looks as if Cupid had pierced him through

says did You ever hear anything of the old
adage about 'single cnssedness" and wed

friend" says the man of 30 You've gotit

They Wanted 70 Register.

A large number of colored persons
were in town Monday looking for the
supervisor of registration, they being
under the impression that they could
obtain their certificates on that day.
The supervisor, in accordance with
the law, closed his books on the first
Cay of July, and was not in town: A
majority of the crowd wended their
way to the post Office to report their
disapp ointment to Post Master Stew
art, who went busily to work filling
out their grievances in the shape OF
afidayits.
The following is the form OF afi-
davit filed out by the post master:

dates this year? They do not seem
to be as ANXIOUS as usual to let the
"dear people" know what Office they
want.
The committee of arrangements for
campaign day have decided to erect
the speakers stand in the southeast
part of the court house square. A
number of seats will be provided for
the ladies.
The town council has had g good
many dogs buried within the last
week, and Judging from the pistol
shots we hear every night, the work of
dos Staying is still going on. Some
of the dogs are killed by poison scat
tered on the streets, and if people will
allow their dogs to run at large they
must not be surprised should their
canine pets come up missing.
Several prominent Anti-Tillmanites
We're in town last Monday, and rumor
has it that they came to Manning to
have little private conference with
their town sympathizers in order to
devise some effectual method of bell
ing the Tillman cat. We do not know
whether conference was had OF not,
but we can say that men may as well
attempt to quench the phosphorescent
emauations from the tail end of a
bug with squirt gun, as to
try to beat Ben Tillman in Clarendon
county.
Last Monday afternoon the usual
quiet of our town was slightly dis
turbed by Mr.. R. II. Davis using
a horse whip on Willis Davis, colored.
The matter was heard last night be-
fore the town council, and Mr.. Davis
was fined six dollars. Immediately
after the hearing Mr.. Davis preferred
charges against Policeman Calvin
Boyd, fer using profane language on
the street while on duty, and for ad-
yising Willis to cut and shoot R: H.
Davis, to retaliate the use OF the whip.
Council heard testimony on both
sides; one side stating positively that
Boyd did use the language attributed
to him, and the other side equally as
positive that it was not Boyd but an
other party who used the language.
Council realizing the seriousness of
the charge postponed the investiga-
ton until material witness who was
absent could be procured.

Summerton News.

sUMMERroS, July S.-The rains have
been pretty general in this section
but our village has had very little, and
we are needing it badly.
Politics is at red heat in this com
munity. Hon. J. E. Tindal spoke in
the academy last Saturday evening to
an audience of about fifty. AS a mat
ter of course he gave us his views on
the Tillman side of the question.
There will be match game of base
ball here Friday evening, between the
Juneville and Summerton clubs.
Report says there is an old bear and
her cubs in the woods near Knights
mill. I heard a little darkey say they
came up to his fathers house, whoop-
ing and bowling. I hardly think it's
bears: it must be some Of the cam
paign whoopers from Aiken on their
way to Sumter to attend the meeting
on Wednesday.
DR.. B. NJ. Badger and family left
here Thursday evening to pay visit
to relatives in Georgia.
Mr.. Sam Sparks has commenced
work on Mr.. George Whites store.

to-day. I hear young men calling
upon the clefts of some rock to hide
them from the face of the land (Our
Ashley will go to Orangeburg.)
The day was not without politics.
Tillman was the leading spirit with
the people. He had all during the
day a superabundance of enthusiasm,
an overwhelming majority: men true
and tried who will stand by him in
any and every emergency. Nothing
seems to daunt the courage of the
people in three cheers for the peoples
candidate
We bade adieu to Eutaw at 6 P. NJ.
Nothing disturbed the repose Of a
tired mind but loud whoops at every
station for Tillnlan. 1t was certainly
a solid Tillman excursion, more so
than social gathering though every
thing went merry as marriage bell.
Silver Is still in the progressive line.
The Democratic club held meeting
to-day with a large membership. The
good ladies had quite success with
the sale of ice cream. Everybody is
going to Sumter on the 9th.
The Democratic club has arranged
for a large picnic on the oath. Itwas
proposed that j. G.. Haskell be invited
to speak, but the Tillmanites say they
don't want to hear him. Silver has
the right ring; they can boast of as
fine a club of good looking men as
the Columbia club Fearful indeed
have we been catechised upon our in
telligence, but Silver will get there all
the same.
l have made my letter too long,
but allow me to allude to one inter-
esting little incident ! learned at Eu-
taw. A little lad. m Earleite in his
teens, was there in the interest of his
candidate for governor. He said Col.
Earle when elected had promised him
a fine situation: that the governor
would give him charge of his stock
farm to mind calves. Smart boy, in
deed, is little Jones. Tom.
