1t Takes
Nerve

Everything depends upon
your nerves. 1t is nerve force
that causes the brain to direct
the motion of your body; it is
nerve force that causes your
heart to pulsate, and send the
blood through your veins; it
is nerve force that causes your
stomach to digest food, your
kidneys to filter the blood, and
the liver to secrete bile.
In fact, nerve force is the
power that runs your body, so
if you feel worn-out, irritable,
nervous, cannot sleep, or eat
we'll, have pain or misery
anywhere, your nerves are
weak, and your system run
down. To restore this vitality
take DR.. Miles Nervine which
will strengthen and build up
the nerves. You cannot be
healthy without strong nerves.

Good Man for Commissioner.

The friends in this city of Thomas
Z. Dickson, who now holds posi-.
tion with the State dispensary, are
anxious that he should be made one
of the commissioners who are to be
appointed by Governor Ansel to dis
pose of the stock of whiskey held
by the State dispensary.
Mr.. Dickson was born and raised
in this county, and is spoken of in
the highest terms by every one who
knows him. Although an employee
st the dispensary he has kept his
hands clean, and has, when an oppor-
tunity presented, condemned the me-
thods pursued by those in authority.
Mr.. Dickson can secure splendid
endorsement in this city and county.

Thirteen Million Fighting Men.

Washington, Feb. 19.---More than
thirteen million men in the United
States are available for military SER
vice, according to the report of the
Military Secretary of the army con-
cerning the militia, which has just
been made public. OF this number
112,89O men are organized in Stats
militia and ready for immediate duty.
New York leads the list in tho
number of men available for duty,
having ,s994 GOO such citizens. Ohio
is second with 1,085,110. Illinois
comes third with 1,OS4,559 and
Pennsylvania fourth with l,017, 900.
In the aggregate strength of it's
organized militia New York leads
with 14,7l1 and Pennsylvania is
next with 9,836. Illinois is third
with 6,613. Inspecting officers urge
larger appropriations and better
equipment for the militia. Major
John A. Dapray, United States army,
in speaking of conditions in Florida,
says:
GAS part of general plan for
the protection of militiamen against
the unpatriotic and unsympathetio
people in mercantile life it is sug-
gested that all the States be enjoined
by the Federal government to pass
laws guarding the members of the
organized militia against interference
or discrimination on account of their
connection with the militia. 1t
should be made unlawful for any per-
son or class Of persons to interfere
with the right of citizen to perform
military duty when legally called
upon by the State"

Rev. c. o. Mann Replies.


To the Editor of The State: /
saw in the State one day last week
that - citizen of Oconee county is
really exercised over my not voting
for the senior Senator to succeed
himself in the United States Senate.
He intimates that / have committed
perjury in not voting for the senior
Senator. much prefer to exercise
my constitutional rights in measures
of this kind and not have men who
are biased in their Judgment to die
tate to me as to how / shall act in
matters of this kind. / am over SO
years of age and have been in public
life for 35 years and have never yet
seen the wisdom Oh necessity of ask
ing anyone how should act on
privilege questions. l Cen see, how
ever, that it is necessar. IN some in.
stances for some men TO be dictated
to in matters of this kind, as II is
evident they have to be told what to
do, and when told they act right or
wrong. Now the difference in such
men and myself is that / have some
independence of character and real
ize my individuality and personal
responsibility to the God who made
me, while It seems they do not. Oh,
that some men were better informed
az to their personal rights and privi-
leges! They assume rights when
they have none. A free press and
free speech are the paladin of civil
and religious liberties and anyone
who is 80 narrow and contracted in
his general make up as not to wan,
others to exercise their prerogatives
is as contemplate and mean as he is
little in the eyes of all fair minded
people. So far as 1 am concerned
in not voting for the senior Senator
it has not given me one moment oi
concern. Whereas if had done sc
it would have haunted me by day
and by night the remainder of my
life. Fools, you know, hold carni.
walls where wise men and angels
would dare not tread. The laws o.
the State have wisely provided fol
all classes of her citizens. If mar
is a lunatic he should be sent to tht
State asylum; if idiot, to the aims
house; if q criminal, to the chain
gang or penitentiary, according t.
the turpitude of his crime. No mar
has any moral or legal right tt
raise this question except the senior
Senator. If he will challenge my
reasons and prove that they are no
we'll founded / will do as he did il
the United States Senate when h,
attempted to be funny. Now, viii
not other people keep their mouth
out of this matter, as it is up Il
the senior Senator to disclose ant
prove what charge is not true.

Now, in the language of that fearless
and patriotic statesman, Patricl
Henry, if that be treason then le

ex.Dlr.e,or. Mo, Tuesday ., Las. Week.

The ex.directors of the State dis
pensary held meeting yesterday
and thus put themselves on record
as believing that thoy have not yet
been elected from the Office of trust
from which they had been removed
by the order of the Governor of the
State acting upon the suggestion of
the General Assembly by unanimous
vote. The directors met by virtue
of rule to show cause issued by
Judge Ira b. Jones, of Lancaster,
and served upon Governor Ansel
before Governor Ansel's order of
eviction and dispossession had been
served upon the members of the
board or their attorneys.
w. T. Aycook, attorney for Jodie
M. Rawlinson, chairman of the
board, said yesterday that the meet
ing of the board was perfectly natu-
raj. They make the point that they
have been deprived of the profits of
and emoluments of their Office and
they do not wish to be put in the
position of making fight on purely
academic grounds. All that they
seek is the restitution of their honor.
They care naught for the position
per SO.
Governor Ansel had nothing to
say yesterday on this proposition,
but he is thinking. On all occasion ;
he smiles. There is pleasant ur-
banity in his attitude at all times,
and he never acts hurriedly. He
does his thinking in the early morn
ing between 6 and o'clock. When
all is quiet and reposeful, he delibe-
rates carefully over the program for
the day and when the time for action
comes he is ready-and immovable,
as he has been in this case.
Attorney General Lyon seemed to
attach little Importance to the ruling
of Judge Jones. In the case of
Cantwell, from Charleston county,
the Supreme Court has held that it
will not discuss hypothetical or
speculative cases. And as the local
option bill has passed both Houses
and Governor Ansel in all proba-
bility will have signed it by next
Tuesday, Mr.. Lyon thinks that this
will then have become speculative
case, one with which the Supreme
Court will not care to bother itself
The action of Judge Jones caused
more comment in the General AS.
sembly than anywhere else and in
the Senate last night Senator Gray
don offered joint resolution con-
firming the action of the Governor
and thereby shutting off any further
controversy.
Some think that this board hopes
to prove the local option bill uncon-
stitutional and thereafter TO try to
prove its "rights" and to come back
into Office.
Senator Graydon's resolution
reads:
"Be it enacted by the Senate, the
House of Representatives concur.
ring:
"Section l. That the Office of the
board of directors of the State dis.
pensary be, and the same is hereby
abolished.
"Sec. 2. That this act shall &c
into effect Immediately upon it's
approval by the Governor"

UP TO EDITOR WALLACE TO EXPLAIN.
REV. COKE D. MANN RISES TO cORREcT
THE "HlsTORY" BY MR. WALLACE.

inc "HIotUnI OF MN. WhLLhS.'
To the Editor of the News and
Courier: The News and Courier of
Saturday morning, February 9, had
short communication in it copied
from the Newberry Observer, which
/ want to answer in your paper.
Some things which the gentleman
states are true, while many of them
have not the semblance of truth in
them.
First. He says / was nn ardent
admirer and supporter of Senator
Tillman in 1890. I was not in New
berry in 1890. was living in Edge
field county, on the Saluda circuit
that year. l was in Newberry in
1891 and 1892. voted for Senator
Tillman in 1892. This l do not
deny.
Second:
$50 ardent Tillmanite was Mr.. Mann
at that time (lS90) that he fell out with
the anti Tillmanite town Of Newberry and
said some right hard things about the
town people"
Who were the people / said the
hard thugs aboutp 1t was low
down scoundrels who had libelled
me, and nobody knows this better
than the author of the squib that was
copied in Saturdays News and
Courier.
Third. He says:
"He influenced the members of the
churches of his circuit, or the trus,
tees of church property, to sell their
parsonage in town = the place now
owned by Mrs. Willie Ruff, on Boun-
Diary street, adjoining the Boundary
Street school-and to buy a piece of
land two or three miles from town, upon
which the parsonage was to be built"
This, | say, is absolutely false, and
I ask him to tell from whom l bought
the piece of land. The sale of the
Methodist circuit parsonage, in the
town of Newberry, had no politics in
it. It.was sold for division of the
property belonging to the Prosperity
circuit, which was one-half of the
old Newberry circuit, set off two
years before by the South Carolina
conference, in 1890, at Anderson,
s. G. If there is any further dispute
about this l ask the public to ask
the official board on the Newberry
circuit if what have written is not
true.
In conclusion, if I am not very
much mistaken l have as many true
friends in Newberry county and
town as the writer of the article re.
ferred to. l am the same Mr.. Mann
exercising my constitutional right or
all privileged questions. My friend
will have to go to the records and
search for other data, for what he
has stated in reference to my action
in regard to the sale of the circuit
parsonage is not true. Men ought
to know what they are saying before
they speak or write about men.
Thinking that this will be suffi.
cient, I am az ever,
The Same Mr.. Mann.
