FOUR PER CENT OF POLICY.


T HAVE the pleasure Of announcing
l. to the farmers Of York county that
have Just completed arrangements
with the FARMERS STATE MUTU-
AL HAIL INSURANCE COMPANY
OF SOUTH CAROLINA, whereby !
can offer safe and reliable insurance
against damage by hail at reasona-
BILE premium rate. The plan In brief
Is like this:
l. You pay 50 membership fee cash
down, and give you policy protect
ing all or a part of your crop In any
amount you might desire, not exceed
Ing $40 an acre on cotton.
g. In case Of damage by hall, we
proceed at once to adjust the loss on
a mutual basis. You select one man,
select another, these two select a
third and whatever these three says
the loss amounts to within the limits
of your policy. you get.
8. Except the membership Zee
down you are not asked for any cash
next fall for the premium, and the
amount you will be required to pay
then will only be your proportion Uf

Base Ball at Fc-estoE.
Editor The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
The Greelyville base ball team came
to our little town Thursday to cross
bats with our boys. ut o'clock play
ball was heard and the game opened
with Greelyville at the bat Both
teams played good ball. Fcreston had
it going her way up TO the sev-
enth inning, the score being t 10 0 in
favor of Foreston, when Foreston lost
her holt and punched errors thick and
fast. allowing the first Greelyville man
to cross the plate. When the niGe in
nings were over the visitors had won
by a score of 6 to5. Mr.. Robt. Mayes,
of Mayesyille, umpired the game. The
attendance Of both Foreston and
Greelyville was good, the roofing on
both sides was something huge. Every
thing passed Off pleasantly.
By the way, l notice in the last issue
of your valuable paper, an article from
Greelyville over the signature of "Oo-
server" giving an account of the game
of ball played at Greelyville on the
23rd, ult. Our boys went down to
Greelyville expecting to find fairly
good ground to play on, instead they
found a small piece OF rough, bushy
ground, containing less than two acres,
Surrounded on two sides by corn about
shoulder high, and on the other two
sides by rough woods thickly covered
by high timber In one corner of this
little piece of rough ground they had a
diamond laid out so feet from base to
base, with pitchers box % feet from
home plate.
Our boys are accustomed to playing
on good ground properly laid out,
and did not care to play on any such
diamond as mentioned above, so they
told GreelEville to correct the diamond
or no game. After spelling a lot Of
Greelyville hot air, the Greelyville
team decided TO correct the diamond,
they did so and the game opened with
Foreston at the bat. Any one could see
from the first inning that no matter
what happened Greelyville would win
for Forestou had ran into mess.
Mr.. Boyle and not Mr.. Bosle um-
pired the game. | note the "Obser-
ver'' says he never saw an umpire
make decisions so fair and impartial
Why did Mr.. Observer make mention
of the fair and impartial decisions of
the Greeleyville umpire? l have never
heard of the far and impartial rulings
of umpires spoken Of, unless their work
had been challenged, but | have often
heard OF the accurate and prompt de-
cisions of umpires. Doesn't the fact
that Mr.. Observer was so quick to
speak of the Greeleyville umpires fair
and impartial decisions show that
there must be doubt some where, and
in his estimation did he not think it
needed little whitewash to help out
the doubtful situation?
First and last these two teams have
played ten games, the feathers of the
first eight belong to Foreston while
GreeleEville get the last two.

Editor The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
Please allow space in your columns
for brief expression OF the high re-
card and esteem in which the writer
held his deceased friend. John Smith
Nelson, whose useful life, so untimely
closed. leaves void throne sin beauti-
full realm called home" whose inmates
with true loyalty and love had crowned
him king. It is not in the province OF
my pen adequately to portray the
beauty and symmetry of his excellent
character, but yielding to the prompt
ings of burdened heart I bring this
offering to the altar of his memory,
with apologies for its weakness and the
earnest hope that it may bring to view
some trait of a noble character that
will inspire others to emulate his ex-
ample.
Duty had not called him to field OF
carnage, nor ambition lured him to
seek political advancement. but IN the
quiet walks OF private life,

Called to his reward ere yet his
bright promise had reached its full fru-
ition, he still had reaped abundantly
the harvest of a well-spent life and we'll
directed effort.
True to his family, his business: his
country and his God. what more can |
say. His remarkable success IN farm
ing. under conditions of labor so dis
couraging to agriculture, speaks elo-
quently OF his courage and ability.
He had manly bearing, a dignihed
and courteous manner. a genial and
nospitable nature, and a sunny disposi-
ton which attracted to him a large cir
Gle of friends.
The high moral and religious plane
on which his life was cast make his ex-
ample worthy to be followed by all, and
his record a precious legacy to his be-
reaved family. In the 39th, year OF his
age, I3 days after being ordained to

The great Greenville meeting

The great Greenville meeting,
after weeks of advertising with
Senator B. r. Tillman as draw
ing card, and after much being
said and written as to what
might be expected: turned out to
be disappointing to those who
expected Senator Tillman to
draw a big crowd and disappoint-
ing too, in not seeing flames of
fire coming out Of the Senator's
mouth. The newspapers Of the
3rd, inst. claimed that there
would be 10000 people in Green
vile to hear Tillman, but Mr..
John Marshall of the News and
Courier, who is a friend to the
Senator, estimates the crowd that
went to hear Senator Tiilman at
1900.
The Senator was hampered, and
did not seem to be able to getup
his old time steam. The people
are not following him as they
did of old. and he realizes 1t. We
have not the time nor the space
to comment upon his dispensary
letter which appeared on the
Bird, inst, but shall endeavor to
do so later.

The OGDEN MOVEMENT.

The News and Courier, aided
by Tom Dixon, has been having
a controversy about the "Ogden
movement" with the Columbia
State. Thelatter paper has made
a gallant fight to sustain its
position, but to our mind the
voice Of the demagoguc appeal
ing to race prejudice is more
effective with the masses, than
is sound reasoning. Just init
mate that a man or object leans
favorably toward the negro,
whether there is any ground for
theintimation or not, the mere fact
that it has been limited at, and it
Will give a certain class Of mar
row view papers material to

poison the minds Of unthinhing
readers. We have not entered
into a discussion of the merits OF
dement's Of the movement head
ed by Mr.. Ogden, because we
believe more harm than good
can result from abusing the man
and his co-laborers. The South
needs all the aid it can possibly
get for educational purposes,
and if the Ogdenites propose to
aid US we see no reason to re-
ject it, even if, as the opposition
say, the negroes viii be aided
also. Are not the negroes aided
to procure an education by the
whites now? The greater pro
portion Of the school tax comes
out Of the pockets Of the white
race, and the negro schools are
supported with this money,
then why object to money being

,rouoht here from the North,

brought here from the North,
and the management placed in
the hands Of our own people:
Ii the Ogden movement has for
its purpose the education OF the
regro alone. there might be
some reason for this war against
it. but as we understand it, if
money for educational purposes
is sent here, it is to be directed
by the school authorities, just as
the fund from school taxes is
is now. The fact that 4 large
majority Of Southern educators
and men of eminence IN the
South favor this movement is
sufficient to convince US that no
harm can result from it. ''Tom
Dixon, the once Baptist preach
er, who gave up his holy calling
to enter the field of money MAX
ing, has devoted much time and
newspaper space to abusing
Robert Ogdon, and charging
him with being a negro worship
per, a teacher Of, and practitioner
of social equality: this sort OF
stuff is very effective weapon
to arouse prejudice: but Mr..
Ogden denies Mr.. Dixon's ac-
cusations, and we see no reason
why Mr.. Ogden is not entitled
to belief. Dixon says that in the
department store presided over
bv Ogden there is a social equal
itv restaurant, where negro
can enter and buy a
lunch the same as a white per-
son: we do not doubt this, but
that does not signify social
any more so than in a
merchant who sells a dress pat
tern to negro over the same
and from the same piece
he sells to a white person. A
department store restaurant
has no social gniicence e
whatever, these adjuncts to these
mammoth establishments are
for the accommodation of the
customers of the store, and they
have proven a help, especially to
out of-town shoppers. Blu t
whether Mr.. Ogden favors social
or not, has nothing to
do with the merits or demerits
of the educational work he is en-
gagged in, Mr.. Ogden nor a regi.
ment of Ogdens can bring about
social equality, and the argu-
ment on that line is purely dem
agogic and solely to appeal to
prejudice.
There are several county
in this State that
have been attracted by the
News and Courier-Tonl Dixon
method, and are me-toolng to
beat the band, and now the
News and Courier is endeavor-
ing to get the State to take its
batteries off of it, and direct
them on the ''me-too's.
We have watched the discus
sion with considerable interest,
and admire the plucky fight,
against the odds of aroused
prejudice the State is making,
and we hope before the fight
ends the State will be able to
convince the reading public that
the Southern educational move.
ment headed by Mr.. Ogden has
been misrepresented, and that
the charges of Tom Dixon, are
as grossly exaggerated, as are
many of his statements in his
books, notably the
Leopard Spots.
