The following article from W. W. Keys one of the editors of the Baptist Courier, appeared simul taneouslv in the Greenville Mountaineer, the Greenville News and the Columbia State of last Satur day. The recent article in The South Carolina Baptist, charging Col. .lames A. Iloyt, the prohibition candidate for Governor, with hav ing been at one time au advocate ol high license, calls for a word or two from myself in reply. The wriler of the article in .The Baptist Courier refers, in substantiation of his charge, to a controversy which he says he had with Col. Iloyt on the subject many years ago. But as a matter of (act he never had a controversy with Col. Iloyt on high license. In 18H<> a short editorial article appeared in The Baptist Courier in which the position was taken that as between high and low license prohibitionists would best servo the cause of temperance by supporting high licenso. This article was written by myself and not by Col. Iloyt, and I cannot say now whether he at that time or has ever since endorsed the opinions expressed in it. To this article Kov. G. \V. Gardner re plied, arguing against tfie position assumed. He wrote only one article, and there was a short paragraph in reply and that was all there was of the controversy. There was personal correspond once between Mr. Gardner and myself at the time about the matter, and there would seem to be no excuse for attempting to hold Col. Iloyt responsible for the views expressed, as ho knew with which of the editors he was having a controversy, if controversy it could be called. In closing his article in reply to The Courier, Mr. Gardner said: UI know that The Courier loves the cause of temperance as dear ly as any one, and while 1 difl'er with it as to high license, yet far be it from me to impugn the motives of the courteous Christian irentlemen who control it/' It Mr. Gardner did not impugn the motives of the editors of The Courier then, why should he nowsingle out Col. lloyt and seek to put him in a false position before the people of tho State ? Col. lloyt, to my certain knowledge, lias been a life-long advocate of the principle of Prohibition. liis record on that line is consistent, and will stand the closest scrutiny. That the effort I A inn bit li?m ii n i\/?n r * ? ?v/ a 11? % ? ii 1111 <i|'|>rai niniin.n r iij his present advocacy of prohition is prompted by sinister motives, must be cleai to every intelligent man and woman in South Carolina. I thought your article of last week would be sufficient to set at rest the unjust charge of The South Carolina Baptist, but as it is being used by the enemies of Col. Iloyt to hurt his candidacy .for Governor, 1 make this state mcnt in justice to him, and to assume entire responsibility for the article referred to 1 beg the readers to remember that the article was published fourteen years ago; that tho issue* was high license or low licenso and not Prohibition or high license; that the mm .died controversy was 4 ;teh SEMI-W LANCASTER, 8. C. with the undersi ned and not with Col. Hoyt, and that both Col. Hoyt and myself have always supported Prohibition when that question has been before the people. Any statement to the eoiltrsirv is alianllllnlu nnlmn W. W. Kkys. Reply to Mr. W. W. Keys To the above loiter tho follow iii{? reply was sent to Tho State, The Mountaineer, and Tho Greenville News by return mail : The article of Mr. W. VV. Keys, of The Baptist Courier, in your issue of last Saturday, calls for a reply. I suspect that Mr. Keys is more anxious to put me in a false light than he is to befriend Col. Uoyt. At the tinn? that my first editorial appeared in The South Carolina Baptist, I had no idea of doing Col. Hoyt any harm, and it never occurred to me for a moment that Col. lloyt would deny that he advocated high license where prohibition was impracticable. At the request of his son, J. A. Hoyt, Jr., 1 cheer fully reprodaced an editorial from the Mountaineer and made comments which I felt sure would be entirely satisfactory. Col. Hoyt has not, so far as 1 have- seen, denied the statement; but Mr. Keys rushes to tho front to assume responsibility for the e<l itorial which advocated high license. The fup.i.H urn theseI had a discussion witli The Baptist Courier in 1880 on the liquor question and supposed that Col. lioyt wrote the articles until Mr. Keys wrote after the discussion was over that he wrote them, nor did he then, so far as I remember, say that Col. Hoyt repudiated the sentiments. He only let me know that he was the man who had done the writing. Mr. Keys seeks to inako the impression (hut this was the only discussion that 1 had with The Courier on the liquor question, in which only one article was written by me and replied to by The Courier, while the fact is 1 had another discussion with The Courier on the liquor question in which (ive articles wore written and from the general tenor of which I received the impression which con firmed me in the belief that the editors of The Courier were not straight out, middle of the road prohibitionists. I do not now, ...... i i ....i a. iiwi iiavu i cvn uuuuini I lit? mileerily of Col. Iloyt in accepting the leadership of the prohibition ist.8 in this campaign. I do not believe that they could have selected a stronger or purer man as their standard bearer. Any construction of what 1 have said that is not in accordance with this view has been a misconstrue tion. At the time of my first editorial utterance upon Col. Hoyt's candidacy, 1 believed that he had in tho past been favorable to high license, where he thought prohibition impracticable, and I believe that his accepting the nomination from the prohibitionists was unquestionable sign and pledge that he had pro gresflcd from that position to the position of an uncompromising prohibitionist. I did not regard such progress as any reflection upon Col. Iloyt and I said so. Tiro exhibition which Mi". Keys makes of hiinsell is entirely un necessary, and only shows his personal animosity towards, mo as a rival in the field of religious journalism among Smith Carolina Baptists. It is clear that the "Bin * * ENTE B.B.KL.Y. , WEDNESDAY, JULY ister motvies" Mr. Keys impugns to me belong to the author of the article I have herewith reproduced, and this is apparent to any ordinary reader.

To most people a toad is nothing but an unsightly reptile which is to be shunned as much as possible. The superstitious think it venomous; but studies made at the Hatch experiment station show that it is .not. The toad is a reptile to be sure; but it is one that is not only harmless, but is of great use to the gardener, as every worm or insect that comes within reach is devoured greedily. Centipedes, caterpillars, blister, beetles, ami bugs of every kind are equally welcomed by the toad. He uses them all alike. They wonder within reach and his long, glut inous tongue Hashes out so quick* ly that the evo cannot detect if aiul the victim is gone. The toad swallows once or twice, winks his eye placidly, seems to smile and is ready for as many as may come his way Half a dozen toads in a garden will keep it tree from most of the ordinary garden posts. They are easily tamed and spend the day in some shaded itook along the fence or under a cab bago leaf, coming sedately forth at night to find their food. Where the good qualities of the toad are understood ho is always a wel come visiior, and his stay is made jir pleasant as possible.?Farm ftrs1 Voice. Annnaf Convention It. Y. I*.

The Virginia Carolina Chemcal company is going into the jotton oil business on a largo icale, and this creates opposiion to the cotton oil trust which >wns most of the mills in this tedtion. It i8 not known to what extent the new company kvi 11 go into the business, but it s thought that eventually it will establish oil mills in all those places where they now have fertilizer mills. Should this prove true, Columbia in the course of time will have mother oil mill plant in addiion to the two now here. The Virginia company has already lecided to erect a $200,000 plant. 11 Charleston. It lias already aken hold of a mill in Darlington, and it will gradually get i foothold in other parts of the itate. It is said that the cotton ?i 1 tfust have offered the Virgilia company all sorts of inducenents not to go into the busi less, nui ii was* hii in vain. a jrcat deal of cotton seed meal is used as a fertilizer, and the Virginia company decided to ^o into the business to manufacture their own meal ; but at the same time it will prove a morions competitor to all trust people. Jt is said that the Virginia (Carolina company already has agents in the state nwiking contracts for the delivery of smal next fall.
