Editor The Manning Times:
Il is generally conceded that the
anticipated blessing is more pleasing
than the real: but the reality OF warm
weather is most acceptable and leas-
ant to the farmers. Today is practi-
cally the beginning OF labor since the
continuous rains began some three
weeks ago. and the most Of our plant
ecs will find a plenty to do. That the
weather conditions caused poor
stands is accepted Us true, but that
ample time. assuming more favorable
conditions. remains in which to de-
stroy the Ill effects is also true.
The town council has with renewed
activity continued the work on our
ain streets. The claying being done
IS rapidly progressing; and main
street promises to be an up-to.date
road throughout its entire length in
the course Of the next week or so.
The corner stone Of the new Metho-
dist church will be laid on Thursday
afternoon next. In spite Of the bad
weather the work has been progress
ing nicely. 1t is the hope OF the con-
srega,ion that the building viii! be
completed sometime previous to the
meeting of the South Carolina Con
ference next fall.
Quite a number OF young people
made pleasant and enjoyable trip
to Scott's Lake on Thursday evening
Although the ground was rather
damp. buggy robes and cushions serv-
ed as protection during the short stay
at the lake. Refreshments in picnic
fashion were carried and served on
inprovised tables.
Hon. 0. G. Scarborough leaves to-
morrow to open his campaign tour in
Sumter, S. c. Mr.. Scarborough has
held for two terms the Office OF Legis-
lator from this county. and this is his
first appearance as candidate for a
State Office; but We make no doubt
that his well-known zeal together
with his recognized ability will serve
him in good stead as heretofore. Mr..
Scarborough processes not TO have
any particular fondness for stump
speaking, but the voters may rest as
sured that what he tells them he in
tends doing if elected Railroad Com
missioner. that he will do.
Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers Scarborough,
Mr.. Vernon Scarborough all Of Bish-
opville, and Mr.. Harry Scarborough
OF Sumter. and Mrs Toon Of Red
Springs, y c., have been in town for
several days at the bed side OF Mrs.
Fred Lanhaln. Mrs Lanham's friends
will be gratified to hear that she has
shown some improvement in the last
q hours, and her recovery is being
chcerfuliy hoded for by her family.

Boost for San Francisco as the site
for the Panama. Pacific exposition of
1915 was the gist of a telegram adj
dressed yesterday to every lodge of
Elks in the world, and bearing the sig
nature of Justice Henry A. Melvin, past
grand exalted ruler of the brotherhood.
Messages have been forwarded by
those in charge of the exposition, to
every civic, commercial and fraternal
association in San Francisco, request
ing that they forward kilograms to
every body throughout the country with
which they are aff1liated, asking sup
port for San Francisco in its fight for
the honor of celebratin the completion
of the Panama canal
Among the .doubtful'' members of

claims of San Francisco for the expo
sition of 1915 is uncertain are:

William l.. Gerstle, president of the
San Francisco chamber of commerce, is
in receipt of letter from William NJ.
Bunker, member of the chamber, the
letter being dated at Seville, Spain,
,1a1
played in that city over the exposition
to be held in San Francisco.
Bunker, who is acting as honorary
commissioner of foreign commerce for
the San Francisco chamber of COM
merce- has called on the alcade, Don
Cayetano Luca de Vena, and other lead
ing men of Seville, with view to in
teresting them in the San Francisco
project. Seville has proved to be in
receptive mood, particularly as the
documents relative to the expedition of
Don Gaspar de Portola, which resulted
in the discovery of San Francisco bay,
are in the archives of that city.
Speaking of the records, Bunker says:
"An added cause for Sevfllean inter
est in San Francisco is the fact that
documents relating to Don Gaspar de
Portola's expedition that resulted in the
discovery of San Francisco bay are in
the archives of Seville These docu-
.ments include a detailed account of the
equipment of the famous expedition.
One can not see these papers relating
to Pacific coast discoveries without be-
ing impressed with the logical fitness of
San Francisco for the Panama Pacific
exposition. So many and varied are
the records of Spanish enterprise and
research, that their analysis will fur
nisf research work for the next 20
years. The historical bonanza has
been hardly scratched
Following are additional subscrip-
tions to exposition stock:
