The MANNING TINES still be-

The majority in this State
seems determined to try the ex-

miserable failure to enforce the

There is one thing, however,
which gives room to protest
against the Importation of speak

Of politics on this State. We are
convinced that it will not be
long before there will be an
effort made to lead the Prokiol-

national organization and,in this
way seek to break the solid
South, and under the cloak Of
morals, force disintergration OF

TO BE DISCIPLINED.

Congressman Clark, OF Flor
ida, has brought an avalanche Of
criticism upon himself for taking
an independent stand upon the
tariff. and his repudlation Of
Bryan as the Democratic leader.
Clark had the frankness to tell
Congress, if his local interests
we're looked after he would sup
port the measure regardless Of
the wishes OF the Democratic
caucns, and because of his def.
ance of caucus rule things have
been made very warm for the
gentlemen.
The Florida legislature takes
a hand in the resentment of MIR.
Clark's reputation Of Bryan,
and has invited that distinguish
ed candidate to address them,
which is intended as repudia
ton of Ciark's utterances.
Clark's independence Of thought
and speech may cause him to
:.loose his grip" upon his con-
gressionai district, and cause
him to be classed with the ;'has
beens" after the next election,
bpt he has only given voice to
what many Democrats think.
There is not Southern State
that would for a moment con
slider W. J. Bryan for the party
leadership again. He has been
tried three times. and three
times he has been defeated. The
defeat of the party was not due
to the bad leadership of Bryan,
but solely due to the lack Of con-
idence in the Democratic party
with the masses: any other Dem
ocrat, probably would have
shared the same fate as Bryan,
but all the same, the country
has three times said they will
not have Bryan. and it would
indeed be political suicide to
again place the leadership With
him.

the number sure to go dry by a
vote of over two to one are Slm-

man who has friends in either Of
the two counties named should
endeavor to get them to vote
prohibition. The people of this
county are very much interested
in the action Of Sumter and

them to help stop the drain now

Senator Tlllman has gone back
to Washington, after a long rest
at his home. The Senator says
he weighs more now than ever
before in his life. When asked
with regard to the tariff now be-
fore the Senate. he said, ':there
is no use biting at glindstone:
wheneverIthose Republican ring
sters get ready to pass the tariff
they will simply crack the whip,
and the majority will trot up
and vote as the ring directs" 1t
was expected by many that the
Senator would take lively IN
terest in the tariff game, but no
doubt he sees the rocks, and ap-
preciates the waste of energy.

BIG ORDINANCE READY
New Ordinance for Construction OF
Walks Filed With Council


Sidewalk Inspector Edward Tanning
has filed with the City Council new
sidewalk. ordinance to secure the build
ing and rebuilding Of walks in the
lefty. The ordinance contains the de
scription Of 59S pieces of property IN
different parts of the city and it re
quires the building of some six miles
Of cement walks. 1t is not thought
that the Council will take any early
action on the ordinance as it seems that
the city has no money to pay for the
grading Of streets when new walks are
laid and it would be hard PROPOSE
ton to ask the people to lay the walks
when the city can not go ahead with
the grading. There are still more than
two hundred walks to be laid under
the ordinance passed by the Council
year ago and it is thought that the
Council will make an effort to have all
of these walks put in before any new
ordinance is passed The work of get
ting these walks in has already been
started and the city is planning to
push this work with vigor Most of
the walks under the old ordinance are
in the older residence districts of the
city.
