"Look Not Upon the Wine When it Is Red"
Editor The Manning Times:

The last issue Of The TINES con-
tained a startling statement of parties
at Davis K Roads running circular
blind tigers by initiating bicycle tires
with whiskey, etc. Consequently the
officers here have raided the establish
ment of one of the merchants at that
place and found signs of compressed
apples such as are used in distilling
apple brandy, and it appears from his
statement that his neighbor merchant
sold him the apples and borrowed his
spiritual bicycle, but in trying to get
homh with it he found it acting very
queerly: consequently this bicycle IS
now undergoing repairs. It also ap-
pears that the owner claims to have
only used 'iAdam's ale'' to fill his tires,
but this brother merchant who Dor
rowed the wheel used in it hot stutt. as
he keeps X cocoanuts in stock which
melted the shellac and caused it to act
oueerly with his competitor, as 1t IS
shown BY abundant signs in the road
which he travelled home. The bicycle
was found leaning on his well curb with
his socks on the handle bars, and his
hat on the seat of the bicycle and near
by was found several one x cocoanuts
and one gill measure, small patch OF
white hair all wrapped up in fish net
marked M. D. & J. NJ, Santee," and
early the next morning as our friend
was crawling out of the barn loft where
he had been fishing that night, his
plowman inquired: 'Say, boss, what
tear off your britches legs to the knees
dat er way?" Our friend said he was
Chicco's son in knee britches, at the
same time holding up q bundle of fod-
der counting the blades to his plowman
for shad. The plowman jumped the
fence and peeped through the cracks
while our friend in knee britches, still
holding to his bunch OF shad, hatless
and sockless. tapped lightly on the
kitchen door, and as the preliminary
has not been held we can only give you
the outlines until later.

The State constabulary is
making it lively for the lawless
liqnor dealers in Charleston, at
least some of them, but the
whishey is sold all the same.
Governor Heyward's strenuous
efforts to force respect for the
dispensary law Charleston has
the approval Of the people
throughout the State, but it is
doubtful if he will succeed, re-
gardless of the fair promises
made to him by the local au-
thorities. liz our opinion, the
United States army cannot stop
the sale of whiskey in a city
where it's population do not want
it stopped.

The Colt and ITS Rider.

Once upon time man tried to ride
on the back Of q young colt, which OBJ
jected very much to his doing SC, and
there was quite struggle between the
two, with plunging by the colt and
clinging by the man.
Finally the colt threw the man over
his head, depositing him on the ground
without injury But the man, deter
mined not to be defeated, pursued the
colt and, capturing him, proceeded to
again mount, with some difficulty.
There was another struggle, which
ended as before-with the man pros
trate on the ground-but this time ne
received severe injuries.

The Charleston Chamber of
Commerce is urging the cultiva-

manufacture Of starch. Several
years ago such a movement was
on foot in this county but had to
be given up because the people
could not afford to raise potatoes
at 20 cents per bushel.

The constitutional inhibition
against special legislation IS like
a two edged sword, cuts both

better to strike it out, so that

It is now being said that Col.
William Jennings Bryan has as
pirations for the Craftsmanship
of the Democratic National COM

could direct a campaign more
successfully than he can lead
one. With Bryan as chairman,
the committee may be able to
read Grover Cleveland out of the
party and curb the independent
tendencies Of Senator Bailey Of
Texas.

Due Notice is Served.

Due notice is served on the public
generally that DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve is the only salve on the market
that is made from the pure, unadulter-
ated witch hazel. DeWitt's Witch Ha-
Eel Salve has cured thousands of cases
of piles that would not yield to any
other treatment, and this fact has
brought out many worthless counter
ieits. Those persons who get the gen
uine DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve are
never disappointed, because it cures.

Sunday was such bad day! Too bad
for q meeting, so our Union went to

comforts of home circle around the
freside and were compensated. But
how about the collection for the old
preachers? It was good time to think
OF the poor and of how we may bless
them by sending cheer into their

a quick collection and send it to Dr.. c.
C. Brown and thus get compensation all
round for Sunday.

Pneumatic hammers, with their deafening

massive girders and dropping them into
place for the steel workers.

steel might fall into the thoroughfare. No
mishap of this kind has ever occurred. but.
nevertheless, no one ever tarries under the
bridge.

forming the main span are painted bril-
liant red, while the two towers are gray

They do not seem to care whether the
children turn out well or i'll.
They never seem to instruct them as TO
the paths in which they should walk or
should not walk.
With lazy Indifference they permit the
children to grow up as they may. and often
times they grow UP wrong.
With nothing to encourage or strengthen
them at home the children so out into the
world to become the easy prey Of the de-
signing ones who await them.
The evil association which with the right
sort Of home training would serve but as
a spur to rectitude. becomes the ready
means Of a complete moral ruin.
In many homes. again. poverty. acute.

to crime.
At first the crimes are of a trivial nature.
like petty larceny. perhaps: but gradually
the nature is hardened and by and by the
young person is a full-hedSed crminal-a
criminal against the original bent of his
nature-a criminal. to start with. by the

NATURALIZATION LAWS.

Drastic naturalization laws for the United States
will operate to discourage anarchy. both in this coun-
ny and abroad The anarchists of this country OF
ow and criminal classes, driven from Europe, and the
most forcefu blow against anarchy is that which di-
ecty affects the status of persons seeking citizen,
ship. The type of manhood from abroad has changed
n few years and different laws needed.
Under the new law, in effect all courts and
officials having jurisdiction grant naturalization pa
aes must require of the applicant and his witnesses
ifdavits concerning the applicants beliefs and opin-
ons touching organized government: also as 10 his
membership utilization with secret societies opposed
% government. The applicant must. disclose clean
ecord, supported by solemn oaths. The law also pro-
rides adequate punishment for classifying any ma
eria statement in the application the punishment be-
ing limited at ten years.
Though anarchy is based upon secrecy and treason
ind its principles suffer nothing by violation oath
which does not relate to its organization it safe
say that few would boldly risk the heavy pen
titles of the law Citizenship in the United States
the goal of many alien hopes and it probable that
when the operation of stringent laws shall have be-
ome known many aliens would prefer the chance of
citizenship to allegiance with anarchisc bodies Rigid
PROSECUTIONS under the newly strengthened law should
general have wholesome effect upon the doubtful
immigrant population and deterrent effect upop the
cause of anarchy.
