Prize Drill.

On Christmas night the Manning
Guards gave their first prize drill
The company with twenty-five men
and two commissioned officers
marched from their armory to the
Collegiate Institute hall where a
large audience greeted them. The
Guards were drawn up in line in
front Of the audience, and Major A. LIE
vi and Cadet Lieut.. G. r. Harvin acted
as judges. Capt. Davis put the boys
through the manual Of arms, and on
the first round Bradham, Erwin, Nc
Leod, Ridgill, Hodge, Chewing, Ma
honey, and Jones, were retired on ac-
count of errors. On the second round
Windham, Rawlinson, and Joe Lewis
fell by the wayside. The audience
had by this time become interested,
and everybody was on tiptoe of anxi-
ETY. to know who would be next. as it
was evident that those remaining
would make the struggle to hold on.
Captain Davis cautioned the boys
against catch-commands and then
continued with the third round.
When it was finished Smith, John
son, Jayroe, and w. Tisdale were
dropped. Again it was evident that
the contest was narrowing down to
the best drilled mem, and on the
fourth round Graham was stood
aside. On the fifth round w. Davis
went to console with those that pre-
ceeded him. June went down on the
sixth round, followed by Tommy Tis-
dale on the seventh. This left but
three men il ranks, and after a fierce
contest, all handling their guns with
clockwork precision, misunderstood
command brought Willie Young
to break his promise to win
the prize. Sergeants Lewis
and Kelly had it to themselves
on the ninth and last round. While
these boys were responding to the
commands which were given, rapidly
whispered bets could be heard in diff
ferent parts Of the hall. Some were
betting on Kelly and others were
stalking on Lewis. Finally Lewis's
gun slipped out Of his hand, and Kel-
ly was declared the winner amid
great applause. At the conclusion Of
the contest, Capt. Davis, after thank
ing the audience for their presence,
introduced Hon. Joseph T. Rhame to
present the prize. Mr. Rhame, in
presenting the prize, referred to the
history of the old Manning Guards
and paid a handsome tribute to the
valor of the members Of that organi-
zation. He complimented the boys
upon the progress they had made
and cautioned Mr.. Kelly to look we'll
to his laurels or his comrades would
win back the beautiful medal he had
just won.
The prize is handsome gold star
and is to be contested for every three
by the members of the COM
pany, and if the boys stand by the
resolutions made on Christmas night,
Kelly will have to keep on practicing
or some other fellow will wear the
medal. Those that attended were
highly pleased, many of them never
having seen prize drill before, and
when it is announced that another
will be had, we venture to say that a
still larger crowd will witness it.

United States laid at the door Of the
Democratic victory of 1892, though in
the United States the broad foundations
for that panic were laid during the
Harrison administration. by the Sher-
man act and the corrupt and exraya-
CANT Reed Mckinley Congress, which
left the treasury bankrupt and the
credit Of The government in peril. It IS
rather la-e in The day, by the way, for
a Republican organ TO take up and ac-
knowledge the truth of the Democratic
contention that tariffs have no effect up
on wages. whatever. except TO raise or
lower their purchasing power, as they
may levy high or low taxes on labor's
necessaries Of life. Democrats do not
claim that the return of good times S
due TO Democratic ascenIancy or entire
~ to the Wilson bill, though Republi-
can organs and statemen from the
first TO The last and from the highest TO
the lowest have never failed to claim
credit TO their policy for even the gifts
Of bolntful Providence. We do
claim. however. that the Wilson bill,
by tightening The burden Of taxes upon
American labor and freeing American
industry from the greatest Of its tariff
burdens. has been more prominent than
any other single factor in bringing about
the return Of good times. the revival Of
industry and increasing the wages Of
American labor.
The time has now gone by when Re
publican organs can explain away the
counuy's prosperity and the rise in
wages. They must confess The truth.
Though whether such confession is
made or not is nor material so far as
concerns the enlightment of the country,
which has learned far more from exper-
fence in a twelvemonth on the tariff
question than it could have learned in
q dozen years from the dogmausts and
theorists. The light Of Truth and the
light of Prosperity are flooding the land
together and the fogs of partisan false
hood must melt away before them.
