All Carolina will have their eyes on ^
our capital city next week, and great j;
throngs from every *?ction will take j'
possession. Every indication points
to the most successful fair yet held. ^
Our little town will be represented by
of. lonuf 1 tun Iniiiilriwl. No occasion
brings as much genuine pleasure to the ^
entire people, as this fall festival, and {j
no other like gathering tends to make
all our people one. i he State Fair is *
a great institution ia more ways than '
one. g
a
K'sewhere wiil he found the profes- c
sional card of Thurmond & Tiinmer- ?
man, Lexington, H. C. tVe wish for *
this new firm abundant success. Mr.
Thurmond is solicitor of this district
t nd is known to be one of the most ag
gressive nnd energetic lawyera
for some time and it a
young man high and unH
V questionrd ability, nnd we predict for '
rhim a successful career at the bar. |
The Advocate has an abiding interest j
in this firm and consequently expects t
great tilings from these excellent gen- '
tlemen. We heartily commend theui to j
the good people of our county as men <
worthy and competent. t

I The Columbia State, which has for I
years been South Carolina'9 leading J
daily, giving its renders reliable home (
and foreign news, is just at piesent
paying special attention to happenings
throughout the State. In the issue of t
October 17th there will be found ten
? " columns from nearly fifty correspond- j
exits in dilTerent sections of South t
Carolina. Tiiis is a feature that will, t
ir continued, make our uLeady popular '
contemporary evea more sought after c
; by South Carolinians, both at home I
|( and abroad. Editor Gonzales is one '
of the ablest editors in the South, and *
his paper has been made great by ad- j
herence to honest convictions, in sea- \
son and out of season. *
t
t
The coal strike has practically been 1
K settled and those who were rightly
apprehensive about the enormous rise
In the price of coal, had the strike continued,
are now cheerlul. What seems
n
to be largely'at the bottom ol the con- p
tinuation of these strikes is the fact t
i* that owners of 1 irge corporations see t
clearly their right to combine with *
others for the mutual protection of
their industries, and at the same time
? are so shortsighted as to fail to see
^ how it is that the laboring class of our
people should have the same privilege.
Their big contention Is that they can- *
W' not rtcognize the labor unions, or this e
cr that organization of labor. It is g
W strange how the unholy desire of self- r
' promotion to the seclusion of others will J
warp the understanding and sense of u
justice in so many people. We are s
truly glatl that the strike in the coal 0
mining district lias been forced to a 1
H
settlement. I
b
Some of the leading papers of the d
State have of late been discussing the c
advisability and advocating the es- ^
tahlisliing of the oilice of Industrial or ^
Commercial Commissioner in this G
State. From the amount of thought it
has been our privil-ge to give to this
matUr it appears that the establishing
i f such an ollice would be highly bene- J"
Ii? ial to the progress of the State along ^
industrial lines At least ? feel safe p
in putting the question before the priblie
for their earnest consideration. The
duties of this commissioner as we understnnd
it would be to gather information
concerning industries already
in exi. terce, and in so far as practic- .
able gather knowledge concerning the J
natural resources of the State, and in p
that way he of use to seekers of in- T
vestment. Through an ollice of this ^
sort we might he materially helped
in the early development of numerous jj
enterprises. We cannot do less than
commend this subject to the, con- '7
sidernlion of our readers.
st
1 ast week we published an effusion u>
from the pen of "l'uhlic-Spirited Citi- I
zcit." The article, if such it may be
termed, was received in time for us to A
make a reply in the same issue, but
owing to the after-effects of reading
it were placed Intra tie combat. Now, "!
for real, genuine argument that arti- jjJ
ele was all right. Us author is surely pr
a "moss-back" of th* most pronounced "a
type, lie is not worthy of being call
ed an ante-deliivian. Any man who t?o
w
would point with a linger of nride at r.
those guano shacks is not worthy of
h i ng cal'cd u citizen, and it is m dm- w
gr.iee to any community to have it tl(
heralded abioad that it contains wuch ?<i
?n
a pet sotiage in its make lip. As to Ins i
invitation to us to leave town if we a''
did not like the guano houses, we will ^
merely say that we are a tax-payer in m
this community and, with other taxpaying
citizens, have u right to protest
against such holes being allowed to ^
stand hi the heart of our town. We
do not like the guano houses and will
never hesitate to express our opinion in
as to what should I e done with them
