We have a communication from the
pen of Mr.. Ben II. Earvin of HarYin's
which was prompted by an editorial
on the cotton situation in the News
and Courier entitled ''Facing a Prob
lem" Mr.. Earvin commends the
spirit OF the editorial and then in an
able and lucid manner proceeds to dis
cuss the needs of the farmers of the
South. It is splendid paper and we
would be glad to give it space did we
have the room. The article referred
to takes up over two columns OF small
print in the News and Courier and this
would make nearly three columns OF
THE TINES. We regret that we have
not the space to spare for we should
like for every business man to read It,.
There was large crowd at MI. zero
Baptist church last Sunday, not far
from Tindal's mill, and John Barley
corn was very prominent factor at
tending the association. We are told
that a bunch Of Manning coons went to
this place, got a number of the attend
ants drunk and then carried on in such
a manner that the religious service was
greatly disturbed. A gentleman living
near the road to this church told US that
he saw passing his place good many
who were gloriously drunk. Where did
these people get the stuff to get drunk
on? Tindal's mill pond water does not
intoxicate, therefore the booze artists
must have found spring hereby, or
they carried the stuff from Manning. A
warrant has been issued for some fonr
or FIVE OF these disturbers OF religious
meeting and if they are convicted the
chaingang will have some recruits.
