Son-in-law-Duncan and Pa-pa-ln-
law-Tompkins have not figured very
extensively the past few meetings
There is one thing that can not be
taken from Duncan-cheek. At one
of the meetings be asserted "if Evans
had more brothers this would be an
Evans government" Governor
Evans has no brother holding an
Office, but Duncan has two. He is
Pa-pa-in-law .Tompkin's chief clerk,
for which the State pays salary He
has also assumed the position OF de-
tective to shadow Governor Evans,
the pay may come from Mixsou with
the enemies of the Reform movement
Then MIR. Duncan has a brother in
the Secretary Of States Office, and
another brother on the constabulary
force, which shows conclusively that
it is the Duncans and not the Evans
who are trying to capture the govern
ment; just think OF it, father-in-lsw.
two brothers and himself drawing
money from the people and still he
is not happy. Duncan harps on
Evans being lawyer and he asks
the farmers if they are going back on
their preaching, meaning that the
farmers are opposed to lawyers in
Office. Why, Duncan is lawyer and
a fresh picked one at that; from his
speeches and conduct be was picked
rather green and be will never devel-
ope. All Of the candidates for the
United States Senate are lawyers and
when Duncan abuses lawyers the peo-
pie must surely think that it is q
filthy bird which befouls its own nest.

From what the Laurens Silver
Democrat says we judge that Senator
Irby intends to give Governor Evans
a hot time in Laurens next Saturday.
Senator hby has been out in the back
woods of his county making speeches
and marshalling his forces to be in
Laurens to howl down Evans. If
that game is attempted we hope the
Governor will have sufficient num-
Der of friends present to see that he
is given a fair opportunity to make
his speech and we also hope that ii
his opponents undertake any OF their
harassing tactics that he will treat
them with the contempt that such
conduct deserves.

The county campaign meeIinSS
begin at Pinewood on the 18th inst.
and they continue from day to day
until they wind up. We hope that
at each Of them the people will give
the candidates respectful hearings
and that each candidate will be ques-
toned on matters concerning the
Office to which he aspires.
The principal candidates to ques-
tion are those running for the Leg
islature, and right here We would say
that each man aspiring to that hon.
orable place should be man OF in
telligence with fixed views and suf-
fcient ability to advocate his views.
The fact of man saying he favors q
thing which he believes is popular
will not do; he should be made to
give his reasons in order that the peo-
nle can Judge whether the man
knows what he is talking about.
A candidate running for the Leg
islasure says be iavors the free coin
aee of silver. Well, that is popular
scheme, but how in the name OF
sense can he bring about free coinsse
in our State Legislature. We need
renresentatives who are familiar with
the needs of the peoples local affairs,
the State educational system, the
amount OF money it takes to run the
county, the amount necessary to be
levied for the payment of county ex-
penses, debts etc.
A man stands up before the people
and advocates reduction. Make that
man show how the reduction is to
come about, and when the reduction
is made that it is sufficient to run
things efficiently. When merchant
wants a book.keeper he is not going
TO put out the job to the lowest bid
der: he will look for accuracy. a
f,rn,er who wants horse will look
for the one to do his work. not fol
something he can buy for one-hali
price. The people must not be Ca
ioled into voting for men on clap
trap; they have q right to require
a man to specify and they should see
that he does it.
In voting for county officers, by ell
means size the candidates quali6ca-
tions and not his agility in stirring
around shaking hands and "settin'
them up to two-fers, jokes and drag
ging down bis opponent. We have
important Offices to fill and these Of
fees come in direct contact with the
neople: their lands are there assessed;

Since 1878 there have been nine epidem-
les of dysentery in different parts of the
country in which Chamberlain's Collc
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was used
with perfect success. Dysentery, when
epidemic, is almost as severe and danger
Gus as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best
efforts OF the most skilled physicians have
failed to check its ravages; this remedy,
however, has cured the most malignant
cases, both OF children and adults, and
under the most trying conditions, which

Tobacco men of experience
tell Us that it is quite impor-
tant that farmers should as
sort and tie their tobacco as
soon after curing as possible.
Remember, too, that it is nee
essary that care should be
taken in the work, and farm
ers who have no experience in
grading tobacco should seek
the advice and help of some
one who knows how it ought
to be done.

THE ADVANTAGES OF A
HOME MARKET.
If our farmer friends will
think for q moment they can
soon see the advantage Of hav-
ing a market near them. In
the first place they can save
considerable in a season in
time alone, and as "time is
money! time saved is money
made. In the second place, a
market near home is conven-
lent because farmers can easi-
ly receive information as to
prices; best time for selling,
&c.
Then, another advantage is
knowing the men with whom
you deal. Farmers know
better the men with whom
they have been dealing, and
if their business have been of
long standing, there is a mu-
tual confidence existing which
makes it more pleasant for
home folks to deal with each
other. In fact, there are many
reasons why farmers should
assist in building a home mar
ket. Manning will try hard
to build up a first t-class tobac-
co market. Let the farmers
cooperate with the men who
expect to work for their in
terest.

The Clarendon To ba Geo
Warehouse and Supply Com
pany have received the SER
vices of Col. G.. E. Webb, of
Winston, n. c., to assist them
in organizing and starting the
market. Col. Webb has more
than twenty years experience
in the warehouse business and
is now connected with the
largest tobacco warehouse in
the Old North State. It will
be remembered by many of
the farmers in this section
that Col. Webb started the
Timmonsville market last
year. He is said by all to-
bacco men who know him to
be the best tobacco auctioneer
in the world.
