White Men to Your Post.
The spirit of indifference now exist
ing among the white men of - this
county, if not checked, may cost
them and their children after them a
sad and frightful experience. The
negroes are taking advantage of this
indifference, and every night they
are holding secret meetings all over
the county.
Last Friday night, after the white
people had retired, the sound of ve
hicles and the clatter of hoofs could
be heard until after midnight.
What caused this commotion? It
was a. secret political meeting in the
school house next to their church.
The house was full, and every see
tion of. the county was represented.
The meeting was addressed by Rev
erends Thomas, Crawford, Browne.
and Delaine - all of whom made
speeches urging the negroes to stand
up for their rights and to contribute
money toward the registration cases
now before the courts.
The negroes are in dead earnest,
and their leaders are distributing
through the preachers a flaming ad
dress from George W. Murray. This
address, together with a blank peti
tion to Congress, is handed out, and
it is surprising how well they have
completed their organization.
Nothing has. done more toward
waking the negroes from their slum
bers than the indifference among
white men. What are we going to
do about it ? Are we to gratify fac
tional spite by letting the negroes
capture the constitutional conven
vention i
This is not a fight between Re
formers and Conserv'tives, but it is
a fight for existence between the
white man and the negro.
Far be it from us to do the negro
harm ; we want him to enjoy all of
his rights and privileges ; we would
not take from him one jot or tittle
rightfully belonging to him, but we
must insist that he has no right to
rule this country. It is a white
man's country ; their fathers bought
it with their blood, and their chil
dren would be unworthy to bear the
name of their sacred ancestry were
they to allow this country to be
taken from them.
Again, last Monday night between
two and three hundred met in the
same school house, and they were
addressed by Rev. W. D. Chapelle.
He set his hearers on fire, judging
:eom the loud demonstrations they
made. .This meeting, we are told,
kept up until nearly daylight, and as
some of them were going out of
town they fired pistols off in the
upper end of town.
We earnestly appeal to the white
men of both factions to lay aside all
bitterness and go to work for a com
mon cause. If the negroes get con
trol of the convention you will be
called upon for more serious work
than simply casting your ballot; be
cause you are a white man, and you
will not be willing to sit down and
see yourselves carried back to days
that-with all of their sad memories
-should be forever gone.
White men, wake up on the 20th of
this month, which is next Tuesday ;
go to the polls and stay there until
every vote is polled, counted and
safely carried away.
In another column we publish the
negro address to show our people
that we are not becoming alarmed at
shadows, but for them to see that we
are on the watch-tower, and it is our
duty to sound the warning.
We say that under existing condi
tions there is great danger to the
cause of white supremacy, and the
man-it matters not to which faction
he belongs - who purposely stays
away from the polls on the 20th, is
not only doing himself an injustice,
but an injustice to his children also.
In times of danger and trouble the
women of our country have always
done a noble service, and we say to
the ladies that you should join us in
urging your husbands and eons,
brothers, friends and sweethearts to
go to the polls and help carry the
white banner of peace, happiness and
prosperity on to a glorious victory.
Remember the days prior to 1876
and go out to the polls next Tuesday
a pmevent their ever coming back.
Willias, ProofIs Agin Yer.
The Greenville News comes back
at us with an explanation endeavor
ing to show that Greenville and
Sumter are similarly situated ; that
the two cases are alike; but in its
endeavors it gives !self away.
It does not show where the county
chairman of Greenville refused to
accept the pledges of white men
who wanted to run in a white man's
primary. It also does not show that
both factions in Greenville county
held mass meetings for the purpose
of getting up a compromise ticket,
and that at one of these mass meet
ings the county chairman was pres
ent and assisted in defeating the ob
ject of the meeting, nor does it show
that the county chairman of Green
ville county was himself a candidate;
but it does show that a county con
vention was ordered to determine
whether there should be a primary,
and a primary was endorsed.
If our recollection serves us right,
the primary was held, and two Con
servatives are among the nominees.
One of them we know possibly as
well as does the Greenville News.
We refer to Mr. H. J. Haynesworth,
a son of Clarendon, and whose early
boyhood days were spent in Man
ning. In selecting Harry Haynes
worth those people selected a man
who is true to his race and with the
ability and manhood to stand by his
convictions-a man who knows no
boss, no faction, but who will dowhat
his conscience will dictate to him to
be best for his people. If the whole
convention is made of similar ma
terial, the people throughout the
State have reason to feel safe and to
rejoice, for in such hands no harm
and great good can result.
Notwithstanding the fact that a
compromise ticket has beqn nom
inated in Greenville, and one -hich
the Greenville News can not say any
thing against; yet it continues to
advise opposition to the nominees.
We contend that the Greenville
News has about the same right to
oppose the nominees of the Green
ville primary as it had to support
Haskell when it said ediporially that
it would "go to hell an4 be damned
and double damned before it would
oppose the Democratic nominees or
by word or act cater to the 'nigger'
for votes."
We may not hsve the exact words,
but in substance we are correct.
Then the Greenville News was right;
but since the present regime has put
a stumbling block in the way of its
bottle, it has concluded that it would
not be damned or double damned or
go to hell either before it would op
pose the Democratic nominees, but
on account of the administration
taking its liquor nipple out of its
mouth it can "eater to the 'nigger'
for votes and go to hell and be
damned and double damned," too,
without causing many tears, either.
If the Greenville News has not made
an appeal to the negro for votes
then we do not understand the edi
torials which appear in its columns.
If advising its followers to put up a
ticket against the nominees of both
factions, and praising the address of
the Colored Ministerial union and
getting on a bust to celebrate
Goff 's infamous decision is not
virtually appealing to the coon,
then putting your arms around his
neck and smacking him on his
blubber lips for his vote would not
be either, and'it isiall right for those
whose stomachs can stand it, but
since Editor Williams has announced
himself a candidate in opposition to
the primary nominees.
We can see through his ap
parent madness, and as he has
been unable to get another white
man to join him, he can show his
manhood by putting to a practical
test his plan of electing by using his
social, financial, physical and pe
uniary forces.
He should strike out next Tuesday
and be at the polls with his pockets
full of satisfied mortgages, cancelled
rent notes, and money, and if he
does not make a satisfactory head
way with the voters,then he will know
that his financial and pecuniary
plan is a failure.
Then let him tap his barrel of
contraband mountain dew and hand
out his cheroots. If this fails his
social plan is also a failure, and as a
last resort-after all the others have
failed-he can go down into his boot
legs and draw his dirk, pistol, slung
shot, knucks, clubs and all of his
other instruments with which to win
his election by physical force.
If he does not do these things he
might be defeated, and then he will
go on record as a doctor who will
not take the medicine he prescribes
for others.
Every man who reads this issue of
THE MANNEGN TIMEs should see to it
that his neighbor goes out to the
polls next Tuesday.
They Played With Dynamite.
We cannot understand the mean
ing for the action of the election
commissioners for Richiand county
in appointing a Republican manager
at each polling precinct in that
county.
The chairman of the board says
that there has been a hue and a cry
Ifor an absolute honest election, and
his board desired the people to -have
what they want.
The explanation is all right and
will look well printed in Sunday
school literature, but in practical
politis under existing conditions it
won't work.
Honest election! What bosh ! Can
not the commissioners of Richland
find three Democrats for each pre
inct who can hold an honest elec
tion? If they can not, let them
make a requisition on Clarendon,
and we can guarantee the result
honestly returned.
*The appointing of Republicans
does not smack well with us. It has
the appearance of forcing a certain
white element to show their hands.
It looks to us as if the commissioners
[want the Gonzales element to either
support the Republican ticket that
[has been nominated, stay away from
nominees of the Democratic party.
We would also like to see that ele
ment show up, but we do not believe
in goading them to rashness.
If they should in their bull-head
edness choose to support the Repub
lican ticket-which would not sur
prise us-as the Columbia State liat
already announced that it would
"hands off," where comes in the profit
for bringing on and forcing this ad
ditional opposition!
The Constitutional conventioi
must be controlled by white mer
who favor the things a majority ol
the white men want, and in order tc
ensure this control we can not afford
to play the cat-and-mouse business,
We think it is the height of foolish
ness for Richland's commissioners tc
"do dat ting to try dema fate," as a
negro preacher once said wheT
pulled up before the presiding eldei
for misconduct.
Should the Gonzales crowd joiri
with the Republicans and defeat the
white man's ticket, no one would be
to blame for it more than the com
missioners of election.
It would be far better to han
stuck to the usual methods than at
this juncture doing what our ene
mies have been howling for.
The fight is squarely on in Rich
land, and we see no chance to rescuc
her from her danger unless every
white man stands square up to the
regularly nominated ticket.
Since the above was written new,
has been received that the commis
sioners have rescinded their foolish
action, and have reorganized the
various boards of managers, appoint
ing all Democrats.
Next Tuesday will be a most im
portant day to future generations.
The Government cotton report
shows a decided falling off in the
production this year, which may give

The merchants of Sumter regard
next Tuesday of so much importance
that they will suspend business to
look after the election, and that a
strong Conservative city, too.
On account of the general election
coming off next Tuesday the ware
house opening at Sumter has been
postponed to Thursday, the 29th
instant. We mention this so that
our readers will not go to Sumter
and be disappointed.
Senator Tillman, in his debate at
Staten Island the other day, won
first place. The committee of referees
were seven Democrats, seven Repub
licans and seven Prohibitionists.
The Senator's speeches were punet
ured with loud and long applause.
He seemed to carry his northern
audience somewhat like an 1890 cam
paign meeting in South Carolina.
One preacher undelrtook to interrupt
him, but the audience cheered Till
man and howled the preacher down.
Last Saturday two of the Florence
editors had a personal encounter.
Robert C. Starr, editor of the Mes
senger, aged about 25 years, made an
attack on W. F. Clayton, editor of
the Reform Advocate, aged about 55
years.- The fight resulted in both
being badly bruised, and Clayton's
son being put in the lock-up for
wanting to get at Starr when he
learned of the attack made upon his
aged father. Editor Clayton is a
brother-in-law of Dr. WV. E. Brown
of Manning.
HOME AND ABROAD.
It is the duty of everyone, whether at
home or travelling for pleasure or business,
to equip himself with the remedy which
wll keep up strength and prevent illness,
and cure such ills as are liable to come
upon all in everyday life. For instance.
Hood's Sarsaparilla as a general tonme, and
to keep the blood pure and less liable to
absorb the germs of disease, will be we-ll
nigh invaluable. Change of drinking wa
tr often causes serious trouble, especially
if one has been used to spring water in the
country. From a few drops to a teaspoon
ful of Hood's Sarsaparilla in a tumbler of
water will prevent the water having any in
jurious ef fect.
Hood's Vegetable Pills, as a cathartic,
cause no discomfort, no disturbance, no
loss of sleep, but assist the digestive or
gans, so that satisfactory results are effect
ed in a natural and regular manner.

The wicked registration laws, by means
of which our dearest rights are beiLg de

and wherever the jndges had the canragA
of their conviction, have been declared un
constitutional, nul and void; and even such
as had not, are unwilling to make a reputa.
tion of infamy for all ages, by derlaing
legislative enactments binding that are
known by every school boy to be unconsti
tutional.
Though none of the partisan and self
seeking judges have been audacious
enough to declare the laws in question
costitutional, two of the able.,t judges in
the country, one Federal and the other
chiefjnstic of the Supreme Court of the
State, bave declared them unconstitntiontal,
nul and void. So that in approaching the
Federal Snpreme Court, compos.d of nine
jdges.. live of whom are Rtepublicansji, and

the uudural repngn:tn:cs nail torts of the

them.. .
We are aware that your votes will esiher

the instrument that will be maide to put us

When every elector sha'l have peaceably

The questions that wiii meet uc at the

aid you have any candidates for delegat,-s 1

try ton elect them and why did you tail?
How do you know that your votes would 1
not have been counted and your friends1
leeted?
How do you even know that anyone was
even desirous of votiun. for othier personsi
than those declared elected ? If we shall
answer no to these questions, then we will<
be informed that we have no case, as the

Some pretenderd friands are adlvising you
that in cases where the D,-miocratic factions
fuse to vo for the 'onsei vatives, but
not the Rformxers. Such advisons are
either fools or scoundrels, as they know
thut the plans of the compromise Conserv
atives will disfranchise more of. you than
that of the Reformers. But before voting
for any man exact a pledge from him that 1
he will use all in his power to defend and
preserve your suffrage franchise in the pro

either vote for sneh Democrats as will run
independent of priary restrictions, and
pledge themselves to preserve your ballot,
or support only candidates of your own
