The Abbeville Press and Banner has pronounced views upon a great many subjects with most of which w?- do not agree, but it has expreesed Itself very clear y on the question of tbe croaker as compared with t.ue vngrant. "As between the croaker and the vagrant,"] "says our contemporary, "give us tbg vagrant. "Tbe vagrant has no ambition to bother any | ""ooay bqa ih wuiidk iu ici lur wimu nm ?o vit will, but tbe croaker stands ready to I "sootcb all the wheels of progress, and to Hod j "fault with every proposition to build up the I "town. He Is presumptuous In trying to "chill the ardor and the energy ol bis more 'patriotic and public spirited neighbors. "In placing blm on the cbang gang gre?t ln' justice has been done to the VHgraril, wblie "ibe grenter public enemy, the croaker, in "allowed logo at liberty on tbe streets of the "town he would dtflle. Vagrants do comparatively little barm, but croakers ruin a "town, and respectable peop'e ought ask "them to move on. Thetr proper place Is on "our chain gang, or else tbey should seek "citizenship elsewhere." We thought that Abbeville had grown away from Itscro 'kers, tliHt It had prospered so greatly In the 'ast few years thst there were no croakers left there, but it appears that the tribe Is not extinct, and we sympathize fully with tbe proposition that tbey be required to do servfee on tbe chain gang, and this blessing which we would ask for our friends In Abbeville we would seek for ourselves In Charleston. There is no question about it that tbe prosperity of tbts town has been greatly Impeded by those of its own people who have tslked against It, who being unsuccessful themselves, have decried tbe succbss achieved by their neighbors, who have been never ending in their lamentations as to the unhappy estate of their community, who have been a hindrance, instead of a help, to every enterprise.
