Why Did Council Mover

A surprise was sprung on the OF.
fcers Of the Warwood Fire and Pro-
tective association yesterday when
It was announced that council would
no longer meet in their building on
Nineteenth but would hold all their
sessions in Warwood school house.
Why council took such action the
members OF the association are al a
loss to understand as IL was thought
everything was moving smoothly be.
tween council and them. Just re.
Gently the association had embodied
into their bylaws a section reading
that on Friday nights when council
WAS to meet in the club room that all
games should cease At \ O'Clock
sharp and the chairs put in proper
position for the meeting. The place
was made comfortable in every way
for the town fathers. IL is said that
the reason that probably caused coun.
ell to change fits place of meeting was
that the association asked that 81
cents be paid for each meeting in the
building for janitor's service in clean
ing the place.

quent members had paid their dues
during the past two weeks. but there
s'ill remained quite an amount due.

cussed briefly what prompted council

We regret that our friend J.
V. Wallace of Charleston should
have used in the course of an
Introductory speech the Ian
guage he is reported to have
used. If he intimated that he
was ready to resort to arms in
order for the Governor to be
seated then he was not justified
in using such language, we can
not conceive a condition in this
State wherein it would be L C
essary to resort to arms to carry
out the expressed will of the
people, and when intimations of
this character are made it is
usually to give expression to
feeling intense, and not Intended
to mean ali that the words imply.
There will be no need to resort
to arms, we have courts which
can be appealed to if 1t becomes
necessary, but we hope even
this will not be necessary. be

The subcommittee with Sea-
board Bill Stevenson as chair
man should publish in The State
and News and Courier a list of
those who are and have contri-
buted to the Investigation fund,
so the people at large may know
who these generous patriots are.
It IS rumored that the S40O con-
tributed from the town of Lam
caster, $500 Of it came from the
pockets of Col. Leroy Springs,
the other hundred perhaps from
Mr.. Charlie Jones so much spok-
en- of during the campaign.
There is one thing certain that
Hon. T. J. Strait, senator from
Lancaster did not contributed
any money towards Seaboard
Bill's committee nor will the
blonde gentleman from Chester

UNUSUAL, TO SAY THE LEAST OF IT.

There is an investigation which
is to be bad under the auspices
of the State Executive Commit
tee a breaking of customs. and
the fact that W. F. Stevenson
the head OF the stink hunting
committee a shrewd lawyer, so
regarded by the Seaboard rail
road company he being its hired
attorney, should consent to dis
regard the usual practice Of law
yers. makes it rather peculiar.
The rule is when protest is
made, the one protesting is re-
quired to bring proof to sustain
his contention, but in this case,
the protestant is not so required.
Judge Jones was defeated in the
Democratic primary, but a maj.
ority of the Executive-committee
are his supporters, he admits
that on the face of the returns
Governor Biease has a majority
but he contests the election by
protesting every box in the
State. The committee accepts
his protest, but instead of re.
curing him to make good his
charge, it in effect tells him they
will 60 out to find the evidence
for him, if this is not an unusual
proceeding we do not know how
he characterize it. A mau is
charge with an offensc before
the courts, what would the peo-
pie say if the Judge was to leave
the bench to go about hunting
the evidence to make the charge
good? 1t does seem to Us, that
instead of calling upon the peo
pie to furnish money to help
ferrit out the charge made by
Judge Jones. it would be more
in keeping with justice and com
mon sense tc say those who
brought the charge must produce
the evidence, and appoint a time
and a place to hear and consider
such evidence as may be brought
in the proper way. But to listen
to a tale of woe from a defeated
candidate and then soothe his
sorrow by giving the masses an
irritating delay is enough to dis
gust the people with the kicker
and the committee also.

Editor The Manning Times
Please allow me space to again ex-
press my thanks to them who gave me
their support in the second primary.
Let US all hope never again to wit
ness such a political campaign in either
our State or county as we have just
passed through. 1t does nobody any
good and brings infinite harm to our
county.
May we all settle down to our indi-
vidual affairs. looking forward to the
time when the game will again be
"caIled," confidently expecting more
harmonious conditions to prevail. At
that time I hope to meet you on the
field of action.

sTEyENsoN's CONSPIRACY.

The subcommittee of the
State executive committee Of
which Hon. ". F. Stevenson is
the chairman, has done enough
already for the people to lose
confidence in the intentions Of
that body. and it matters not
what it does now the finding will
be received as information only.
The Stevenson portion of the
committee appointed time to
meet in the city of Columbia, to
begin the investigation into the
fraud charges, but instead Of the
meeting taking place as agreed
the Blcase portion Of the sub
committee went to Columbia TO
do their duty, and the Jones por.
ton went to Charlotte, n. e.,
where they had a conference
with their chairman, known
among those who have kept up
with his movements as "Sea-
board Bill" and in that North
Carolina city this bunch of Jones
supporters laid down plans for
the action of the committee as a
whole. 1t does not need seer
to understand that the action OF
these men who made an appoint
ment to assemble in one city in
this State, but secretly slipped
away to another out of the State,
thus eluding the other members
of the committee is not for the
good of the Democratic party or
the people as a whole.
We regard the methods EN-:
ployed by Mr.. Stevenson and
his co-conspirators as deserving
of condemnation by all men re.
sardiess of factional choice, and
they should be made to feel the
people whether they be Jouesltes
or Bleaseites do not endorse
such brazen trickery.
There has been i great deal OF
bitterness, too much CT it. many
things were done and said that
ought to be forgotten, but as
long as those who have the con-
troll of the party machinery con-
tinue to manifest an unfair spirit
the bitterness will continue. We
agree with Senator Tillnan IN
his letter to State Chairman
Evans, when he says IF you do
not exert your influence to hurry
things up and stop this dwadling
and foolipg about, the whole
committee will be damned in the
estimation Of all decent people. "
And further in his letter he
SAYS, white men will not toler-
ate any such impudent tinkering
with their rights" Senator Till.
man never said a. truer thing
than when be told the committee
that "white men will not toler,
crate any such tinkering with
their rights" and the readers of
this newspaper will recall that
we gave expression to a similar
view in previous issues.
The people of the State have
given an expression as to who
their State officers shall be-, and
they will not submit to being
robbed of this expression by a
little committee Of sorehcaded
politicians who have manifested
a disposition to rule or ruin.
