Manning. July 16,-Since yester-
days report to The News and Courier
of the great storm In this vicinity ad-
ditional particulars from the county
estimate the damage done to the
growing crops at fully 40 per cent
Corn and tobacco seem to have suf-
fered most. though forward cotton

force Of wind prostrated many trees

rainfall caused great damage to roads
az well as fields. The precipitation in
Manning amounted to q little over Il
inches from Thursday afternoon To
last night, that of the gale proper
amounting to over 10 inches. A singu.
lar feature of the gale was the com

situation In that city.

Reports Of the Storm.

1t was learned this morning that
the Seaboard trains between Hartsyil,e
and Sumter had been operating on
regular schedules up to this morning,
Dut 1t was feared that the train pass
ing over Lynches River this morning
might be the last which could pass
that place in some time. as the water
was rapidly rising up to the trestle.
and 1t was thought that by the time
another train arrived that the water
would be too high and the trestle too
dangerous for passage. At many 9TH
er points on the Seaboard trains had
to stop operations because of high
water and washouts at various places.

ingly large volume of water which

WILSON'S PATRIOTISM.
y @. Dunbar Calls Attention to High
Ideals o. Mstion's Executive.


Editor Daily Item:
1t now looks like President Wilson
has again scored In keeping this coun-
nv out Of war. Gen. sCarransa seems
to have become rational. and has -all-
cd OF fishtins. for q while at least.
There was time. and not 30 long ago,
that he was posing a. bully and yet,
from an intelligent standpoint. one Of
cr4,ations simpletons. II seems from
hh' threats that his purpose was to
ovsrawe and bulldoxe this country
into acquiescense Of his demands. but
when he began to see that Uncle Sam
meant business with him. It then came
his turn to cool OF. President viii
sors does not want war with Mexico
or any other nation. and will try out
evrything slss tirst. There are some
who lWp m oversupply Of what they
call 11stlsM and would recklessly
plunup tn country into war, not
stopping to count the cost Of life and
money that would be sacrificed. There
are others who are actuated by selfish
motives and would drag, IL they could.
thig government into a most awful
struggle. to exploit their financial In.
terOsts, Taking these facts into con-
sidtration. we. a. . people. should be.
and arr, proud thst we have a man
at the helm OF our government who
has the brains and nerve to hold us
steady in the boat, while the break ers
of war are threatening to engulf us

motto Of = brave people to advocate
peace at any cost. but they should use
all their diplomatic powers and exer-
else all patience possible before de-
clarlng themselves belligerents against
q sister nation. Gen, Sherman gave
his definition Of war and many today
think put the right construction on 1t.
There are some old veterans left from
the War Of Secession. who can tell
something Of tn horrors and suffer-
ings There are those In the invaded
territory Of Europe who have lex.
perienced some Of Its terrors and who
could give pathetic and horrible de-
scription Of its ravases. Those In tho
trenek ~ - stay could give some de-.
tails that would fall with weight of
sadnoss on our ears. Patriotism Is
not made up altogether in trying to
destroy our enemy nations. There are
higher ideals and nobler purposes to
which It can be devoted. and from all
indications manifesting themselves.
We must concede that President Wil-
SON has analysed that great virtue and
