Inspector Hunt was here last week
inspecting and checking the Manning
dispensary, and he says it is the best
kent in the State. He says that to
Inspect the dispensary is matter OF
form entirely as. every report is prompt
X made, and the books are perfect.
We urge our readers to pay up their
Subscriptions. as after the lst day OF
April we will not be able to send them

will not be forced to cut off any.
THE TINES editor is back again in
Columbia to aid n selecting a United

Of getting through in couple OF days
there is no telling how long the legls-
lature will have to be in session.

The Court House Commission, con
sisJing of D. W. Alderman, G: NJ.
Davis, W. Scots Harvin, W. c. Davis
and W. C. DuRant, met Monday alter
noon and organized as follows: D. w.
Alderman, chairman: W. c. DuRant,
secretary. A committee was appoint
ed to visit and inspect court houses be-
fore eiectine an architect. The adver-
tisement for the bonds are to be placed
in The State of Columbia. and the
Manufacturers Record, Baltimore. The
bids for the sale of bonds are to be
opene6 on April 18th. The commission
are going 10 give the people the best
building the amount at their command
will permit.
The town election, although over one
month off is being discussed quite free
". and the friends Of some of the an
ncunced candidates are doing some
Quiet electioneeriug. We find there IS
a disoosicion to want a bran new admin
istration, and there are others who
think some of the old council should
remain, but the matter for the people
of this town to consider in our ludg-
ment. is, shall Manning be held back,
or shall it go forward? II 1t IS the pur-
pose to put this town on progressive
lines, council can do much towards
bringing about the desired result, and
REGARDLESS OF personal popularity men
should be selected for their ability to
brinp GOOD results. The income Of
this town is sufficient to cause the peo-
ple to sit up and take notice; while we
have confidence in the men we select,
vet they are not lnfallible, and II they
mistakes they can be corrected by the
people, providing however their acts
and doings are not withheld from the
public. Let every citizen in this town
feel thatit is his duty to take hand IN
the coming municipal election, and all
vote for what their Judgment dictates
will be for the towns welfare regard
less OF personal considerations. The
town registration books are now open,
and no one can vote ID the town cleo
ton unless he has secured a regiStra-
tion certificate, therefore it behooves
every voter to go to the town clerks
Office and get his certificate.
