Chamba rlain. Nov. 24.--Over a year
ago work was commenced on a new ar
tes.an we'll at Kimball, to take the place
OF an cid Well, the flow of which a

depth OF l,e46 feet, cased partially with

pended; PROBABLY Indefinitely. Contrac-

to throw off the sum of $500 on the con
tract price and leave the. we'll In condl-
tion fer pumping. Pending an opinion
OF the state geo.ogist as to the nature of
the obstruction, the offer was not ac-
cepted. The water stands in the pipe
within twenty feet of the surface OF the
ground, just the height OF the water in
the old well, fifty feet distant. The ar
tesian we'll which has supplied the town
Of Armour with its water supply
also decreased greatly in flow. caused
probably by the rusting off of the casing
at some Point below the surface, per-
hitting the flow to escape.

Wonder if it is true that after the
primary Evans is going to seek his
fortune in the Klondyke region. He
changes his plans SO often that it is
hard to find him out; on the 5th of
July, he went to Sumter to board a
ship to carry him to Washington, but
Captain Irby was in charge of the
rudder and the vessel was steered up
Salt Lake, neither Evans nor Captain
Irby knew the route and have contin-
ued sailing up that famous lake, and on
the 31st OF August, they will land on
Disappointment Rock, whele many
have landed before. This rock is
10000 miles from Washington, and it
will take lifetime of travel amid
trials and tribulations to get to Wash
ington from that point. John L.
McLaurin was also at Sumter when
the tickets were being sold to Wash
ington and he having travelled there
often took passage upon a vessel be-
longing to the people, and they hav-
ing full confidence in him, the sailing
was entrusted to his care. He took
charge of the rudder and under full
sail, with coIors flying, bands playing
and the people shouting, the vessel
left her moorings and on the 3lst
day of August she will land safely in
Washington amid the huzzas Of re-
ioicing multitude.

RALLY TO OUR LEADER.

It now behooves the friends OF Sen
ator McLaurin to double their ener.
gies, and to see to it that his unavoid-
able absence from the meetings does
not operate against his election. We
do not think it necessary for Senator
McLaurin to make any more speeches
in this contest; the people know his
position and they know and have
every confidence in him. Our latest
information from the Senator is that
he is getting better, and with the
good nursing he is receiving and rest,
he will be himself again in short
time. Senator McLaurin is very
anxious to resume the campaign, not
that be especially cares to speak, but
he wants to meet bis friends. His
physician, however, has laid an en-
barge upon his leaving home at least
for the present.
As far as Clarendon is concerned,
we feel sure that every voter will turn
out and do his full duty. McLaurin
will carry this County as nearly
unanimously as County csn be car
ried, fer the people are almost unit
for him. They remember how they
placed their interests to his care and
how zealously he guarded those. in
terests. His devotion to the peoples
interests has brought en- aged head
upon youthful shoulders, and his
present disabled condition is due to
oyerwork.

NAYFIELD FLIES THE COOP.

Mayfeld made very awkward
effort to play the graceful act at York
vile last Thursday, he evidently
picked out soft place to fall on and
when he thought the spot was reached
he fell down all in a splutter. When
Mayfeld charged McLaurin with
being Populist, be knew full well
that the charge was false. He also
knew that the effort to carry the
Democracy OF South Carolina into the
Populist ranks was repudiated by all
of the prominent leaders of the Re-
form faction, for the reason that there
was no necessity for surrendering the
machinery of the Democratic party
to the opponents of the Reform fac
tion. Mayfeld also knew that the
platform of the Populist party in the
main was adopted by the South Caro-
lima Democracy and afterwards by
the National Democracy. Mayfeld
knew all of these things and he was
aware Of every step McLaurin took
throughout; his charging McLaurin

GREAT COMPLIMENT TO Nc
LAURlN.

The Yorkville Enquirer" in its
account of the campaign meeting in
that town has given one OF the most
complete write-ups of the campaign
so far, and in commenting on the
meeting has this to say:
The Senatorial campaign has come
to be looked upon as a tlresome,
humdrum affair, with the repetition
of the same old story from County to
County. The newspapers have not
been taking much interest in it, for
the reason that after the first three
or four meetings, it was thrice-told
story. But this characterization
does not apply to the meeting that
was held in Yorkville last Thursday,
for it was far out of the usual order,
as it developed events which go to
make up history, and which seldom
occur more than once in a lifetime.
No State in the Union has furnished
a greater number, or more remark
able incidents, than South Carolina;
but in years to come, those VINO
helped to make up the big audience
in the court house, will tell Of having
been present at the most emarkable
scene that has occurred on the hust'
incs of this State since the war. They
will tell of having heard a brave and
honest man, who had unintentlon
ally misrepresented brave and hon.
est opponent. come out with a frank
and open acknowledgment and &c
his best to make amends. They will
tell of having seen and heard patrl.
otic statesman, goaded to the hlghes1}
pitch of human feeling by the crue!
and unjust attacks of shrewd polltl
clans, make speech that could have
done credit to Calhoun: McDufhe or
Hayne, and then, utterly exhauste :
fall almost into the jaws of death
And some of them will tell also Of an
official in high representative posi-
tion, who, attempting to influence
that choice of the people by which
he himself was elevated, received a
humiliating rebuke that was as de
served as it was severe.

Editor MANNING TINES:
From reading the last issue of your
paper, fear some of my competitors
have stopped to a very low method
of campaigning. Will you kindly
allow me space in your paper to
briefly answer some of the charges /
hear they are making against me
since we have made the canvas of
your County.
Hearing that they are still trying
to make capital out Of that lame
charge of a trade between myself
and the Conservatives in 1894, l
mentioned it to the members of the
Democratic Executive Committee of
Marion County. Here is what they
say:
I'VE have heard with surprise the
charge that J. E. Ellerbe made a
trade with the Conservatives in 1894,
whereby he promised to vote for NJ.
&c. Butler for United States Senate if
the Conservatives would vote for him
for the House of Representatives.
1--WE believe this to be untrue. We
have always regarded Mr.. Ellerbe as
a true and consistent Reformer.

We have fourteen clubs in Marion
County and consequently fourteen
members of the County Executive
Committee Here are twelve of them,
Mr.. Wallace and myself are the 9TH
ers.
Mr.. Wallace lives about twenty
five miles below the town of Marion,
and l have been unable to see him.
You know if there had been any
such trade or if there was anything
of it whatever, some of these men
would have heard something about
it. No. It is a miserable effort to
stab me for political purposes.
Now. as to their charges against
my private character, have this to
say: am willing for the truth to be
told about any act Of mine from my
boyhood up. Some of my neighbors
heard something of this kind that
one of the candidates was telling and
to my surprise they handed me this
endorsement last Saturday when l
reached Marion:
I'VE have known Mr.. J. Z. Ellerbe
from his boyhood and unqualitiedly
recommend him to the people of the
Sixth Congressional District as man
in every way suitable to represent
them in Congress.

George and McLaurin.
From the Columbia Record ]

1t is we'll known to every student
of politics that many of our a5lest
and most trusted Democratic leaders
have taken the very same position on
the tariff that McLaurin does. 1t is
quite likely that he may have taken
his ideas from them. In looking up
the question, we find the following
important statement from Senator
George, of Mississippi. No one to our
knowledge ever questioned his de-
mocracy We ask a careful reading
since it is precisely the same for
which a certain few are seeking to
condemn Senator McLaurin. On
June 80. 1891, during the discussion
on the Wilson bill, Senator George
said:
Mr.. President: | am a farmer my
self and follow no other business.
The people of Mississippi are farm
ers. Taking them altogether, they
do very little Of any other business
but farming. They have consider
able wool interests there. They have
considerable lumber interests there
The Senator from Maine will remem-
ber that have uniformly up to this
time voted for q tax on lumber.
Further on in this same connection
he said: Il also voted for a tax
on wool, l believe in company with
Governor Brown, Of Georgia. | vot-
ed for it mainly on the grounds that
at that time we were framing a pro
te:tive tarifT-confessedly so-and
thought when we were sitting down
framing protective tariff that the
protection ought to go all around.
Senator George voted for the inter
ests of his own State. Did any one
at that time or since charge him with
having gone over to the Republicans:
No indeed. He voJed for his people
and they kept him in the Senate un-
til his age prevented him from re-
naming any longer. McLaurin took
the same position and this Senatorial
syndicate asks the people to believe
that he has sold out to the Rep1bli-
cans. Did any one ever hear it
limited that Governor Brown, OF
Georgia. was fooling and dickering
with the Republicans because he
declared that if we had protection it
should 60 all over the country alike:
Whv then should Senator McLaurin
be charged with being traitor to his
party for doing the same thing for
the very same purpose? The men
who make this charge know 1t to be
false, but hope to make some un-
thinking persons believe 1t.
1t is time this infamous method
was ended. If the syndicate have
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1897-08-18

The withdrawal of Mr.. Mayheld
from the Senatorial contest does not
change the conditions to a great ex-
tent, nor would there be much change
if Mr.. Irby would follow suit. 1t is
the opinion of the political prognostl-
Gators that the fight has settled down
to two men and these are John l..
McLaurin and John Gary Evans.
We think now as we did from the be-
ginning that Irby, Mayfeld and Dun
can were nothing but little side
shows to the big circus and when the
door for admission opens the grand
rush will be for the McLaurin-Evans
tent.
