. I The Press and Banner.; BY HUGH WILSON. ' ABBEVILLE, S. C. J . j JSyPublished every Wednesday at; J $2 a year in advauce. ' Twelve 3?ages. Wednesday, Oct. 14, 1896. The ChHrleHton Pont. The Charleston Post is so much at variance with the custom of the city press of this State In Its treatment of Its country cousins that we like the Post, whether it agrees with us or not. I The ability of that paper, the fairness and : good humor ol its editor is such that ihe j Press and Banner would like to see him on ] some of the morning dallies. Country printers may be very "small potatoes and few In hill," but, all the same, they i appreciate civility from the dally Newspapers, and some of us country printers have never been able to see any necessity for the < city editors to assume such mighty airs of greatness that they feel called upon to sneer j at the their less pretentious country cousins. ( We believe the custom of sneering at the { country newspapers Is peculiar to the dally j press of South Carolina. It Is true that we see but fow dallies from abroad, but as far as ?. our observation goes, such dailies as are y printed elsewhere preserve at least the exter- { nals of civility and retain the formality of respect for their country brethren. Speaking for the Press and Banner we expect nothing but disrespect and spite from our morning contemporaries. We account for their lack of civility and their deficiency in respectful consideration, as based on the ^ assumption that they think a little weekly paper ought to look to the great daily paper Mr as its guide and handbook in matters of puby lie policy. Failing to bow down and cringe to them the country brother incurs their displeasure, and we accept their utterances _of spite and Jealousy as among the penalties which the country brother must suffer . for exercising the right of free speech. The fact that this editor has successfully weathered the storm for nearly forty years is enough to make the less successful brother jealous?even though that less successful brother be a great editor of a great daily. The fact that the business which comes to this office has always been sausiaciory i? owner furnishes sufficient provocation to warrant the less successful city brother In entering upon the patriotic mission of taking the conceit out of him, and gives the aforesaid city brother the pretext for throwing mud at one who is In no way dependent upon his enemies. This editor has no sort ol doubt of his standing In the community In which he has lived, and he feels perfectly safe In a good business. In the subscriptions, advertising, and job work that comes this way the editor of the Press and Banaer has abundant reason to be thankful to a generous public. Sustained, as we are, by a large per cent, of the best people of Abbeville county, the sneers of Jealous brethren who never forget the amenities that are current among gentlemen cause as to lose no sleep. Of coarse it would be more pleasant to us If the great city editors could make their conduct toward their country brethren conform to the usages and practices that are common ; among well bred gentlemen. Of course If the great editors of our dally newspapers could make their conduct toward their country brethren conform to such usages and practices it would be more pleasant for the little brethren, who in turn would have more respect for, and more confidence In, the city brother. While, as a matter of fact the country editor's confidence and goodwill may have no commercial value whatever, yet it might be as pleasant to even the great city editor to have the touch of the elbow from his rural brother. What the city brethren expect to gain by assuming 6ucq airs oi migutj gicitiiicaa <.u?* , tkey would put their foot on the neck of the J humblest country brother, or what tbey ex- j pect to make?outside of the gratification of i a spirit which Is not commendable?by strik- j ing at the good name of an unoffending brother is among the mysteries whlth have ^ not been solved. j The Charleston Post, according to our way I of thinking, has ability which is not surpass- j ed by that of any editor in this State. His f courtesy and dignified bearing Is not equal- J led. His good humor, and his respectful s treatment of his brethren, is not to be compared with that of any of the daily press, j High, honorable and brave, W. W. Ball de- J serves and has the respect of South Carolina. , Commissioners of Election, ( The attention of the voter Is oalled to tbe j election notices which appear this week. They have been prepared by the Commissioners with great care, and no election notices have been nearer In accord with the reouirements of tbe law. The Commission ers were chosen because of their fitness for the position and they have entered upon an ' intelligent discharge of their duties. Their advertisements might be an aid to other commissioners who might feel disposed to y excuse themselves from the labor of prepar- f ing such notices. i BEAUTIFUL FURNITURE. | f One of the Most Attractive Stores lu 1 I'pper South Carolina.
