Republican County Convention.
For a spring convention with only
delegates to state convention to Sc
lect the attendance at the republican
county convention on Monday was
absolutely unequalled in the history
OF Prowers county. About 10 Of the
SS delegates were present aud with
the proxies given the representation
was over 80.
The personnel of the various dele

harmony and that factioual differ

victory which the party is bound to
win this fall in the nation, state and

endorse and commend the wise and
courageous administration of Presi-

with cheerful expectation to his nom
nation and triumphant election.
We, also renew and emphasize our
allegiance to the principles Of Re-
publican policy and administration
of government, as the same was de
clared by the Republican National
Convention that met at Philadelphia
in 1900, when the illustrious states
man, William Mckinley, was nomi-
mated for President,
We, also endorse the denomination
of Hon. Herschel H. Hogg as csndi
date for Congress from this Con

We, are heartily in favor of Hon.
E. U. Wolcott for chairmrn of the
delee alton from this State to the

Toilet Articles & Pocket Books
There is no institution east of
Denver that carries the stock of toi-
let articles that we do. 1t is often
a wonder to visitors from larger
cities how we can carry the stock of
toilet articles that we do In such a
small town. 1t is Just simply this:
If the country merchant would carry
the stock and offer his goods at the
right prices, the people would not
send so much money to the catalogue
houses in the cities. 1t pays to car
ry the stock.

County Notes

Some person wanted to do some
thing mean aud lacked the courage
to do it openly sneaked up to the
north side Of the Holly Pharmacy
Friday evening while the Masonic
lodge was in session in the hall above
and threw = stoue against one Of the
window screens With such force
that the glass was shattered into
fragments. or course no one knows
who did it but everyone, even the
miscreant himself, must know that it
was q contemplate way of seeking
revenge, if that was the motive for
the act.
Tho new board Of town trustees
held it's first meeting Monday night
with Mayor Harden in the chair. All
the trustees were present except At
kin and Tuttle. The following of

Fielder School.
Editor The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
The closing exercises of the Fielder
school came off last Wednesday, and as
the principal was our own fair and ac-
complished Miss Leila Geddings, beg
space in your worthy paper TO offer
few merited compliments to her and
pupils. The exercises were perfect IN
every respect, the children each did
their part well. with honor to the actor
and credit to its teacher. Little EEnor
Kolb merited a special praise: her act
ing and recitations were just perfect IN
every respect, a part acted by one ex-
pecting a diploma, would have given
honor to the actor. Still the little girl
Elinor is barely eleven years OF age.
AS teacher, Miss Leila has shown her
self efficient in every respect and the
neishborhood which secures her ser
vices in the future is blessed, not only
in the school room but her everyday
life is a lesson worthy a study, her
presence always brings radlent glow
of Sunshine wherever she may chance
to be. Music was furnished for the
occasion by MIR. Paul Hodge, assisted
by his accomplished sister, Miss Alice.
So we had perfect music, perfect acts
and renditions and perfect crowd,
with every voice perfectly singing
praises to the teachers perfect work.

Col. James A. Hoyt: editor of
the Mountaineer, died at his
home in Greenville last Friday
afternoon after a short illness.
Colonel Hoyt Will be greatly
missed not only as a newspaper
man but in various fields. He
stood high in the councils of his
church, and although not an
Office holder his counsel in the
State had weighty influence. In
the recent State convention he
was a prominent figure. He
had many sincere admirers and
strong friends throughout the
State and when he ran for gov
ernor in 1900, many of these
were forced to decide between
the man and the cause he repre-
sented. He made a strong fight
for his cause, and at that time,
we doubt exceedingly if there is
another in the State who would
have received as many votes.
His death is a distinct loss to
South Carolina.
