Since the primary it reminds US Ct
the days Of 1890, when even the little
bows on the streets were singing the
praises of Earle and ridiculing the
hayseeds. We have heard men who
vowed they would not support Earle,
declare since the primary that they
will now support him because he
seems to be the only man who can
break up the Reform party.

An alarm of fire was sounded last
night which turned out to be caused
from the accidental dropping of
match too near the oil tank in the
oil room attached to the guard
house. Willis Davis, the lamp
lighter, dropped match and in a
flash the flames went above his head.
He ran up stairs, rang the bell, and
Policeman Higgins came up and
smothered the fire out with little
damage.

Elsewhere will our readers find the
advertisement OF Brown, Cuttino &
Delgar's branch store, which is now
established in our town under the
management of Mr.. w. r. Delgar,
well known to many of our readers.
This firm is located in the store in
the rear of the bank, and their store
is full of clothing, gents furnishing
goods, hats, neckwear, and every
thing else that a gentlemen's furnish
ing establishment can handle. Mr..
Delgar is an experienced clothing
man, and he comes to Manning to
give US the only exclusive clothing
store in town. He has some rare
bargains to offer and asks that his
friends be sure to call on him. He
also promises to keep in stock goods
equal to those in the Sumter store.
When you come to town call on
Brown, Cuttino & Delgar; they are
alright.

We regret very much to hear that
there was some complaint at Packs
vile about some printed tickets be-
ing placed in the box for the last pri
mary, but we wish to say that we are
solely responsible for it, and the tick
cts. put in the box sor convent
ence of those wishing to vote themand
not to dictate to any one. The ticket
referred to was the same as the one
we had at the head of our editorial
column, and believing that a major
ity of the voters would vote that
ticket we printed them and sent
them out in the boxes the same as
did the candidates with there own
tickets. It was not a slated ticket
nor was anybody required to vote it,
but if he felt like voting it he could
do so without scratching or he had
the right to scratch any and all
names on the ticket. Again we wish
to say that we did not ask the county
chairman for permission to place the
tickets in the boxes, because it is
customary to permit candidates or
their friends to send out with thei
boxes as many tickets and Of any
kind they may see fit, obtaining per-
was not necessary and we
are sure the county chairman knew
nothing whatever about the tickets
complained of. We are happy to say
that Packsville is the only point
where any complainthas reached US.
The editor of this paper would not
presume to dictate ticket to any
body and if he happens to favor a
ticket which meets the approval of a
majority as this one did it makes
glad. We do not see good grounds
for complaint abont these tickets be-
cause the voters of Packsville ought
to know that it was not our purpose
to dictate to them andit is too flimsy
for any one to manufacture political
capital out Of.
