BEGIN THE new YEAR MGHA YOUR ADVERTISING CONTRACTS WITH The HERALD NOW For 1906
The Daily Suspends.

The Daily Banner has ended the first
year of its existence, and until further
notice has been suspended.
The venture has met with liberal
patronage from a few, but the great
majority of our people have failed to
realize the Importance of Jackson
vile having daily paper, and have
given it no encouragement whatever.
Many of the wealthiest people of the
city have not even subscribed for it.
We we're determined to publish the
paper at least one year, and for part
of that time it failed to pay ex-
penses. At other times, however, re-
ceipts were above expenses, and tax
ing the year as whole we have come
out about even. Prospects for the
coming year are not so promising, and
for fear of loss in the future we have
concluded to suspend publication. II
at any time the town wants daily
paper bad enough to offer sufficient
patronage to make it self sustaining,
the daily Will be revived. Until
that time we shall be content to issue
a weekly.-Jacksonville Banner.

HOME FROM MANASSAS.

Florence, September 12.-The boys
from South Carolina are now all back
in their own homes. They have had
a good time and have enjoyed the trip,
but it has been hard week on them,
and they have surprised themselves
at the amount Of work they had to do.
Some very pleasant acqnain.snces
have been made With men in all SEQ
tions of the country, and one realizes
that after all the world is not 80 big
as it seems and people in the United
States are very much alike in many
ways, whether they come from Maine,
Texas or South Carolina.
The militia have acquitted them
selves with credit. They showed that
they were quite able to endure the
hardships that the regulars sometimes
have to undergo. It is not often that
the regulars have such marching as
fell to the lot Of the troops 1T Manss-
sas, and regula we'll % militia ssll
out on that march.
Many Of the men who fell out Of
line were much more able Il, keep up
with the procession than some who
stayed in, but they found il more
pleasant to sit in the shade by the
roadside or visit some attractive farm
home, where milk and butter and eggs
and good things, mainly pies, were
plentiful.
The fact that the troops from
Thoroughfare did not care to march
fourteen miles to go in parade that
was largely for the benefit of the go
ciety folk, when their suits we're
grimy and dust stained, does not mean
that they were inoapaoitated. They
went to Washington that same DAY as
merry as oriokets.
There was no "kiok'' on the fare

throw away day after day, all the
fresh beef that was needed, canned
jam was issued once and was very
much enjoyed. Rice and beans were

lessness.
The whole Brown division suffered
for lack Of water, the Government
having been disappointed in che yield
of one of the wells, and when the men
came back from their long and tire
some marches they were confronted
by the condition of short water, fre-
quently not drop to be had until it
could be doled out to ono regiment at
a time.
The chief "kick" comes in on the
lack Of equipment Of the regiment,
fc- which the United STATES Govern.
ment was not responsible.
As to the camp itself, it was o dis.
grace to the State, because there was
not tents enough for half tho com.
panies. Two Of the largest in the
regiment had two little .ents, each for

were issued, which are . very poor
