Fellow Citizens:
The returns from yesterdays election
indicate the heaviest vote ever polled
in a primary election in Clarendon. In
1892 when political feeling was intense,
and every voter that could be gotten
was brought out, the vote was 1906:
Yesterday however, the managers re-
port 49,, ,out of which they gave me $40.
This is a remarkable vote and we know
of numbers OF men who did not so to
the polls atall. At any preceding elec-
ton the vote I received would nave
elected with nice majority, but with
the vote reported from Yesterday S
election my opponent succeeded IN get
ting the majority, and ofcourSe Will De
declared the nominee:
I shall always hold in grateful re,
membrance the friends who manifested
confidence in me, and thank them for
the very fattering vote recorded in my
favor. The returns show my defeat,
but they do not, nor will they ever show
me to be sulker. I propose to con-
tinue my fight in the ranks OF the
Democratic party, and as long as ol9 OF

Everybody Knows it Was A Mistake
Caused by Bad Figures.
Editor The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
In the issue of The TINES of the 3rd
inst, you state Mr.. S. P. Holiday came
very near not being allowed to run IN
the second primary on an account OF an
error in the secretary OF the Executive
Committee miscalling twenty nine Tor
seventy nine etc., and as the phraseoI-
ogy of the above statement is mlslead-
ing. respectfully ask space in your
paper that my fellow citizens may know
the cause of the error above noted.
In calling out the returns from the
Farmers Platform Club, I reached the
figures of Mr.. S. P. Holladay, candidate
for Superintendent of Education, and l
could not clearly understand the first
figure and asked for assistance from
Capt. W. G. Davis and Mr.. j.. Ebert
Davis who stood at my side during the
time to assist me in keeping the count
correct and they were of the same opln-
ion was that the figure was intended
a two instead Of a seven, also at the
commencement of the count requested
Mr.. I. I. Bagnal who was tabulatlng
the votes at my side to assist me IN IN
terpreting carelessly and hurriedly
made figures, knowing him to be an
expert on figures, I would show him
the figures I could not clearly under
stand, and appreciated his valuable SER
vices in my assistance, and any one who
wishes can examine the returns will
find some figures carelessly and I'M
perfectly and hurriedly made in some
few returns and the figure two above
alluded to could not be taken. 1or

to the tally sheet afterwards) as Mr..
Holladay will say as he with Mr.: }. NJ.
Windharl together went up IN the
court house to examine the same re-
turns which used and he made 1t out
80 (also was an error marked it on his
tic ket and so reported it to me IN the
presence of several gentlemen and re-
peatedly since learn Mr.. Holiday has
done me the justice to repeat the same
to our friends that he had maze the
same mistake. AS soon as l discovered
an error had been made I promptly
with others got the committee togeth-
er and I cot the returns and tally sheet
and exhibited it to them and they seen
for themselves this deform figure seven
which looked more like two, and l
Immediately referred to the tally sheet
and found the right number to be sew

committee to place Mr.. Holladay IN the

done and needed no comments as all
concerned was clearly convinced. Moth

The manufacturers of Castoria have
been compelled to spend hundrens OF
thousands OF dollars to familiarize the
public with the signature of ChaS. H.
Fletcher. This has been necessitaten
by reason of pirates counterfeiting the
Castoria trademark. This counter
feiting is crime not only against the
proprietors of Castoria, but against the
growing generation. All persons should
be careful to see that Castoria bears
the signature of Chas. Il. Fletcher, If
they would guard the health OF their
