THE MANNING TIMES and The State are keeping things warm this delight ful weather. Wonder if (would be) Governor Gen eral N. G. Gonzales. the \Veylerite and dictator (?) of the press will order the THE TIMES into outer darkness t nd eternal banishment from the light .of influence of his spanish malice, preju dice and hate. You should have swallowed the in sult, Brother Appelt, and written a column editorial about the Scholarly (.) Christian (?) Gentleman (?) who pens such manly and masterful editorials in the greatest paper on earth (?) with more or less syncophantic gush; and this Narrow Gauge Weylerite would doubtless have appointed you "Master of the Horse." This job would be more pleasant now than it used to be when he was in the swamps of Cuba dodging his ancestry, from Spain. Should this imitation Weylerite cut you off and consign you to a lonely prison cell in exile, to feed on the stale bread and water of the other ex changes of the State and deny you the broiled (canned) steak and (condensed) milk and honey of his great paper. We shall offer you sympathy. Let us know how you feel.-Johnston Monitor. Oh well, we feel -like we im agine one would after probing in some hiding place with a stick, and coming across that species of animal which emits an obnoxious liquid as a means of defense. This miserable contro versy was not begun by us, nor did we desire such. A discus sion of public questions ona high plane can accomplish good, but a villifying match will only grat ify an- element who revel in broils. We were slandered by The State to gratify a long har bored spleen, and when we showed resentment by demand ing proof the creature squirted his matter and then hiked out for the seashore. The State of 19th, inst., re plying to an editorial in THE TIMES of last issue, whereil we; clearly showed that Jas.A.Hoyt, Jr., did not produce the proof for his assertion that we were -eco nomical in the use of the truth," but he undertook to deceive the public by citing his own asser tions; for instance, he said the South Carolina Baptist retracted its charge against Colonel Hoyt, having been an advocate of high license, and that we did not make the correction. We have never seen such a retraction, and from information received since this "Jas. A. Hoyt, Jr.," made his assertion, we can defy him or any other being on earth to pro duce any editorial from the South1 Carolina Baptist where such a retraction was published. When proof is demanded, the people are able to distinguish as sertion from proof, and we are ready to take the paragraphs quo ted by "Jas. A. Hoyt, Jr.," fromn .TE MANNING TIMES, and prove their truthfulness by the fldes of the very paper that this "Jas. A. Hoyt, Jr.," refugees under. We never charged Colonel Hoyt with ever having advocated high li cense, that charge came from a religious paper representing the church of which Colonel Hoyt holds his membership. If there was any lying, those Baptist ministers who edit the South Carolina Baptist are responsible. But why continue, "Jas. A. Hoyt, Jr.," has not made good his claim. He submitted his assertions, called us a 'liar and black-guard" and then pulled out of Columbia "for the seashore," without our bothering to seek him. Any street gamin might throw-a brick-bat at a gentleman and then run up a dark alley, but when it comes to facing one with the terms "liar and black-guard" as "Jas. A. Hoyt, Jr.," has had frequent opportunities to do, it makes a decided difference. The editorial of the Columbia -State of 19th, inst., is so much of an enigma that we cannot com. prehend its meaning, there seems to be in it, a flood of woi-ds and a drought of thought, except that it has a tone of haughtiness and self-importance; really, a degree of importance that can only be appreciated by Editor Gonzales. We challenge the Columbia State to produce the editorial of the South Carolina Baptist which re tracted its charge against Colon el Hoyt having been an advo cate of high license. We pro pose to convince even The State on this and other points quoted by "Jas. A. Hoyt, Jr." The wheat crop of the West was the largest for many years, but we must not let that deceive us into the belief that corn and flour will be cheap next summer. It will not be, for the reason, Europe has made a complete failure in breadstuffs, and as a consequence the export trade will be immense. The foreign demand will be heightened by the wars in China, South Africa and the Philippines, and already European agents are making contracts for American cereals. We therefore advise our farmers to make all the corn and forage possible, for the man who is force to buy either of these ne cessities next summer, even for the cash, will find himself in a woeful condition. Farmers watch your corn cribs and not let a grain be wasted, every grain represents so many drops of bloody sweat, and may be needed to stave off a bread fam ine. We hardly know just what to think of cotton yet, because, notwithstanding the short-crop reports from Texas and Missis sippi, we do not bank heavily on then to give encouragement for high prices. We have a recollec tion of similar reports from the same sections a few years ago, and when the crop was harvest ed and put on the market, the receipts at the ports grew larger and larger every day, and finally the farmer was forced to sell his eight cent cotton for five, and be thankful to get that. A rule we have made that we will adhere to, that is never again to offer advise to the farm ers to hold cotton for better prices, but we can always feel safe in advising them td gather their crop as early as possible, gin it as early as possible, sell it as early as possible, and hold the money they get for it as long as possible. That was real kind of the News & Courier this morning to give Senator McLaurin permis sion "to say to the Minneso ta people that a very advanta geous piace will be assigned to their State on the Exposition grounds," etc. Has the News & Courier at lest awakened to the realization that Senator Mc Laurin can be of great service to the Exposition? The crop prospect, according to the reports that reach us, is corn about 46 per cent and cot ton not over fifty, although there has been a great improvement in the cotton weed. Cotton that two weeks ago was about to be abandoned has come out so much that hopes are entertained for a fair yield, but the crop is short, and very short. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together. and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro nounced it a local disease. and prescribed local remedies. and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment. pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional dis ease, and therefore requires constitutional treat ment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo. Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hun dred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Setid for circulars and testimonials. Address. F. J. CHENEY & CO.. Toledo. O. Sold by druggists. 75c. Hall's Family Pills are the best. Crops of Several Townships Reported-A Sad Death. Editor The Manning Times: Through the columns of the press we learn much of interest in politics also the doings and sayings of society, and the financial strength of our county, our State, our Nation. Along with the views of expansion and the tariff. But very little is said of agriculture, the most escential of all other subjects, and the only hope and foundation that can assure uts peace, prosperity and happi ness, and it would be instructive as well as a source of a great profit if the mary able correspondents of the press would reflect their views as to the conditions and prospets of crops, for we are an xous to -now how the grain and cotton crops are maturing in our county as well as out of the county. We do not wish to be understood as antagonizing any views on other matters, as we ap preciate them, but owing to the critical conditions of the crops reported by our national crop reporters. It raises an interest, vital to our hoines and chil dren. I live in the Davis Cross Roads section,and report the crops in St. Paul, Concord, St. James and Friendship township's, both cotton and corn has materially improved and crops chat have been cultivated looks healthy and doing well, while we do not er:pect to make an average normal corn erop we have been greatly encouraged in the last ten days, as we notice the improv ment in corn crops; ia the townships mentioned cotton has improved, looks green and prosperous though small ex cept some fields that ha':e been aban doned or cleared of grass lately, from the long seige of rain, the stands of peas are excellent and forward. also potato spouts promising, we have had scarce ly any fruit, but we are thankfull for a good supply of vegetables, late melons promises good, but too much rain for forward melens: we report for our sur rouding township, hope others will do likewise for theirs. As there are as good lands and farmers in the other townships as in the ones mentioned. We only want to hear from them as we feel interested in the crops of our coun ty, hoping to hear a good report from them on this important subject. Seasons for the past two weeks have been good, interspersed with gentle showers of rain. Much sickness in the townships above named, and some cases extremely serious with one death Mr. Johnnie W. King one of the brightest young men of St Paul, died on the night of the 16th, with typhoid malarial fever, after three weeks intense suffering. He had just returned home from Porters Military Academy, Charleston. where he had made a high mark, for two years he was connected with it. he rose to the position of a non-commissioned officer and dearly loved by his company, A., of his Batallion: one more year if he had lived, no doubt would have graduated with high honors. We extend to his beloved parents our sincere sympathies trusting behind this dark and frowning providence they may see the hand of God, chastening those whom he loved. The burial service was held at St Paul M. E. Church on the 17th, where a large congregation assembled to pay their last respects to this young man whom they loved for-.his high and hon o-able character-. X. Heartburu. When the (juantity of food taken is too large or the quality too rich, heartburn is likely toI follow, and especially so if the digestion has been weakened by constipation. Eat slowly and not too freely of easily digested food. Masticate the food thoroughly. Let six hours elapse he tween meals and when you reel a fullness and weight in the region or the stomach after eat ing. indicating that you have enten too much. take one of Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablts and the heartburn may be avoided.

Loryea D~rug Store, "Slab's" Ruminations. Editor The Manning Times: t As you was good enough to print that little piece I wrote, I will make bold to try my luck again. I see from the paper that several of a the one-gallus boys seen my piece, and t was glad to see them fellows get a little, small rakin' over. I jest know from t the way they write that they ain't got bat one gallus and a wool hat, jest like ine. Mr. Ben Tillman hit the nail square on the head when he named us the one-gallus, wool-hat boys. It looks so natural, you know, to see one of our boys plowin' a lank-sided mule, with one gallus and a wool hat. I believe, Mr. Editor, that there is a heap of people that jest believes that because we don't dress fine and can make up our minds to follow the bisness end of a mule for a livin' that we ain't fit for nothin' else and can't do nothin' else. But I'm a tellin' you that ain't so, for there's Ben Tillman, Jim Tin- ! dal. John Peter Richardson and a heap more that I don't know. Beat them for hard hoss sense if you can. Yes, sir, there's plenty of sense scattered 'round 'mongst us farmers, but the great and o the grand trouble is, we don't stand by r one another and take up for one an other like the other perfessions. We acts too much like geese. You turn a set of geese loose in a field and every e fellow takes his own course. All we 1 got to do is stand together like all the c other perfersions, and we'll be jest as o safe as a cooter when he goes in his r hole and pulls the hole in after him. a Now, jest suppose for instance that these here cotton seed oil fellows was to come round here next fall and say: "Look a hear, fellows, I want to by them cotton seed, I jest got to have d 'em; I done got my mill up and if I don't get them seed my mill will have i to stop and I'll be at a dead expence; r I will give you ten cents a bushel for tl 'em." Now jest suppose we was to buck right up to 'em like a man and say: "Well, sir, you jest can't get 'em t for ten cents; I want 20 cents a bushel s for 'em, and if you don't give it to me I'll put 'em to my corn next spring." a Now where you reckon they would be S at if we was to tell 'em that and stand to it? I ain't got nothin', not a thing 'ginst the cotton seed oil men, I want to see 'em prosper: but they can prosper with out grindin' the dus' out of us farmers. It showvs a good, healthy condition to see a man wot's got money put it out in some sort of bisness so it can make him n more money-that's right and propper: t but there ain't no sense nor use in him b grindin' somebody else into powder to e do it. Now their's already a trus' formin' to buy up all the cotton seed next fall. All 1 got to say is, they got more faith u than ole Peter had. Great snakes and 0 caterpillars, the brass them fellows got S would run a fu.ndry for twelve months. 0 Why, the cotteoi ain't made yet and -f they can't get cotton seed without cot- , ton; but they jest got brass enough to think that tha money :inl make our lit tie hoss run. Look out your hoss don't balk and leave you in the mud next fall. We. farmers want to see you cot ton seed oil men have all tie seed that r you need, we want to see your bisness prosper, but we jest ratually ain't a goin' to give 'em to yo.1: we'll * .' seed and make a big corn e - year fust.' The mill men's d. .. a that the meal is just as good :or miau ure as the seed is, and I speck some people bleave it, but I know it ain't so. The meal will start a crop quicker'n the seed, but when the meal is done t gone them seed is right there makin' that crop hustle: I done tried it. Now jest a word to the one-gallu, wool-hat brigade and I'll stop. My dear wool-hat brothers, what you reck- I on ole Peter is a goin' to say to them 11 trus' fellows when they gets to the gol- t den gate? Wonder if they got to meet a ole Peter fair and square like the rest 4 of us. Let them answer that.- All I got to say is, fellows, be men, don't run, stand to your guns; be like Jackson and his crowd of one-gallus fellows wasa when that fellow hollered out, " Yon- o der's Jackson standin' like a stone 1t wall" And then another time our Pi fellers was behind brestworks and the */ aminition give out. Did they run? No! ti Each feller got a pile of rocks and when ~ the Yanks got close enough they did E let them rocks fly, and the docturs said that there was a lot of broke skulls after that fight. That's the way to stand, fellows. -Be not like dum, driven cattle. I Be a hero in the strife." Yours truly,p JOHN SLAB.
