G ARLIN OTON A CO., Proprietors, j On account of >cv< r ? Illness the editor has been unable to give hi? attention to tills issue of TlIK ADVEKTIKKH. Written for Tin: A DVKRTISKW. Who Istlie Farmer's Cham;.ion? As a farmer thoroughly Inter- 1 ested In every movement calculated to advance the prosperity of my j class, as a member of one of the ? oldest agricultural clubs In the County, as one of the first to endorse the ..Tillman movement," I ask space in your columns to show that Col.T. B. Crews, who claims to be the champion as well as the candidate of the farmer's movement is in fact neither. It i- well known to every sensible man in Laurens County that thc farmer's conven tion discerned the propriety of ; nominating, <>r suggcrting, a ticket for the Legislature, that ticket was never suggested. Col. Crews'name i was before the convention that at- 1 tempted to make the suggestions | and he failed to secure sullicicnt support tr? l?e declared the Farmers' , Candidate. Individual members j of the Farmers' movement may ! have solicited Col. Crews to become ' a candidate. The same can be said of Capt. Humbert and Mr. Davis ns both of them are farmers. I can not, therefore, understand why lu; : claims to be the farmers'candidate. Next I will show that Mr. Crews has not always been the champion of the Farmers'movement. Seethe Laurensvllle Herald, of February 12th, !?*<>. I Hud a long leader with this caption: "The Tillman Raid." In that editorial (for which the managing editor is responsible) it is mildly suggested that all men are more or less cranky and that Mr. Tillman is cherishing a bobby; that Tillman is no doubt sincere in what he says ami honest in what he does, but the question is curtly put, "can you say as much for your fol lowers?" How does it transpire that such a change has como over the spirit of the Candidate's dreams. We are told by Mr. Crews that he favored the Farmers' movement as .soon as be learned that Mr. Till man was sincere. Did he not ac knowledge that sincerity in the very article which he assailed the mover ns a crank. "Politics makes strange bed-fellows" the would-be farmers candidate accuses the people in his own town of having "an organized movement" to defeat him, the far mers' candidate. The Herald of Sept. 18, I88?, in speaking of rings says "Wo have never had any sympathy with those win? cry 'liing I' so has tily being rather disposed to sus pect such persons as having an im plement of their own for the ?rrind rock." Assuming that there is "an organized movement," but there is not, doe.-, it speak well for Mr. Crews, thai his own neighbors and those who have known him best are trying to defeat him. TOT F FAIR. Mr. Jesse O'Neal, agent for Hags-1 dale & Uro., Nurserymen, at .James town, X. C., cann' into tin* sanctum last week with a small paper box containing the great enemy to Hie peach tree. It is a winged", bug or \ fly, with long black horns, small black head, long black wings, and j a bright gobion band around upper end of body. Tue whole body is covered with a black bluish down, similar to that found on butterflies. This fly lays its egg at the base of the tree, near thc ground. The egg, under favorable circumstances, batches in a very few days, produ cing a small worm, which works its way into (lie tree between the bark and Ci" woori, feeding upon the white wood <>r fruit bearing part of tlie tree. Its course is downward, gaining in size and '< strength until it reaches its full 1 growth as a worm. Hy till i time, it has formed within its body n silken strand, and then it begins to spin around itself a coocoon similar to that of the silk worm, from which it emerges after a reason covered with a thin shell like other coocoons of that class, and then bursts forth the fly, as described above. They may be found during the month nf August, on tho out side of the bark, about one inch be low the surface of the ground. The remedy, says Mr. O'Neal, is water and soap mad?' from wood ashes, In ? quai parts and boiled until thoroughly mixed, and ap plied to th?' body of the tre?' Ixdow the surface of the ground and ex tending to th?* branches. It should be applied with a broom, during the month of August, so as to pre vent tlie dei >osit <?t the eggs of the fly. Tliis is said to !?<. the greatest preventive to the fruit tree borer, and the greatest Invigorator to the health and growth of the tree, practiced by horticultural ists in America. The State Executive Committee have decidwi^not to appoint a day 1 In each County for the nominees on the State ticket, but only in each Congressional Distrit, leaving it t > the several Counties to make such appointments a.* they may deem proper. Roscoe Conkllng says "that the smallest county newspaper ls worl h more to its country subscribers In one montli than its price fora ye ?r, and does more for ?ts neiifh bn-hood for nothing flinn many a ji| fh official does fm bis m milicent s.t.ary." A Itali ?nd ICn,rtli?iUttk? ut GTcnus. Slowly and sweetly on Tuesday night echoed through the ball-room hall of (ienns, tho merry laughter of happy youth, ano! as the evening advanced, the many slippered feet of Carolina's fairest daughters and bravest men kept time in perfect unison with the dance music dis coursed by tho band. Half-past nine struck a little too quickly. "Right band across!" on they danced, and many a soft eye beam ed as a gallant form would flit quickly by in the dance. Suddenly your correspondent found himself gently Mung down hy some un known power, and at first he thought ho hud been drinking water-a few moments before, bul when he looked around, what did he see but the musicians wildly deserting their stand and the Moor rooking like a ship. Me noticed that bis partner, a beautiful golden haired maiden, was going out ou the run, followed by great chain of young couples. Your Corres? pondent thought he'd hesitate in longer,mid permit her to ri n oui without an escort so he braced up and tried to be ber ?-oort ns she seemed to he in the load. It w a rn? use trying to catch her, sin couldn't stop if she wanted to, foi she was propelled forward by tlx crowd behind, so your correspond ont, knowing he would be the las one out, concluded to walk, wilie! be did. The hotel was now shiver lng like a ship at sea, ladies am gentlemen were rushing dowi stairs as if they were trying t< catch a train, Misses ran out Wild ly shrieking lire, and old ladies be lng bravely assisted out by gallan old gentlemen. Such a --cene yon reporter in ver witnessed befon Such a Inrge number of Mothc Hubbards, displayed ln such shot not ?ec, would liave lilied a t rn ii 1 Such effectionate young ladle were never seen before. The clung to their partners' arm wit a look which said, "naught bt death can part us," and man-' a eye was dim which an hour befoi I blushed at the praise of their ow j loveliness. Daisies, lillies, ro-i and all the flowers that bloom i the spring-tra-la ! were strew around in confusion over the ca peted turf. A Citadel cadet ran i and got a bucket of water for tl ladies who were fainting an screaming along the lawn. A n< gro who was drinking water at tl Spring, did'nt stop to say a wor but took a dive into the water, ar and bis feet cut all the motions a Mobile dancing master. He wi Immediately fl bed out, but I drank enough In that time to la him all winter, and not countii bis bath. Baths in the sprii nhould ho fifty cents extra. Shortly alter the quaking h.* stopped, the people began to slow march into the Hotel, and soi ; snell a scene was gathered in tl ! corridors that would have been I picture for an invalid's eye. S ting on benches, being framed 1 excited youths, were young lad! who were as pale as as moonllg i und as dodie and affectionate i could be. Sitting on valises, et I were youngsters, wdio lately rous : from their sleep, passed the hon in nibbling peanuts.

THE MASTERS OFFICE. This oilleo was oreated by the Legislature for Laurens County i ti | 1878. Mr. li. H. WATTS WHS tho I first appointe o to the office, and 1 since his rasig""th)1-, C. D. BARKS DALE has fi HIM I tho samo up to tho present time. In the view of econ oinv and reform in tho County gos* eminent, the question of ubollsh ish this office arises for tho con sideration ot* tho t;ix payer, lt limy he a matter of information to some to state how tho Masters of fice is conducted and sustained: [n the first place, it N a branch of the Court of Common Pleas, more especially of tho equity ?de of the Court. Law cases, hy cousent of counsel, may ho referred to the Master, hut only equity cases in volving ii lon?; accounting, or In which -e me i II formation is neces sary for the court, art- properly referred. The o'.Hoer is not paid by the County. The office and necessary office furniture are furnished hy the County. His costs (Mime from the parties litiirant. lie has MU fees paul hy the parties, and If they ure liol ailie to pay his COS'S, he never refuses to do tho work on thal account. Ile is not allowed to charge more than three Hollars per day and three dollars for ma ' king n port, and twenty-live cents ! for answering each witness. If there was no Master, the referee system would come Into practice, which from the nature of equity cases, has always Peen in i use In the courts of equity. The referee cannot ch a rere mon costs ' i than are now allowed to the Mus ter, hill you rarely find a lawyer who will take a case as referee un less a larger fee than the .Master usually gets is guaranteed hy the parties litigant. It is true that a great many equity cuses that are now tried by the Muster, might bo j tried hy thc court, hut witnesses would have to attend from day to day before the caso could be reach- j ed, and the courts would have to sit longer, and I hus make it more j expensive to the taxpayers, to run j the County. An advantage) ls gained by thc parties litigant in having un experienced officer to take the testimony ami make the decisions. Tho plain tl irs attorney will always select a referee com petent to clo the work. The Mas ter receives commissions on sales, but if the Master's office did not exist, these sales would he made by the Clerk of the Clerk or Sheriff, who would he entitled to tho sumo commissions. . The Damage of thc Earthquake. On the night of the 31st of Au gust last occurred an earthquake which was felt with more or les? severity in all of the Atlantic States and extending from New York to Chicago. The shock in South Carolina, and especially in Charleston was the most severe of those recorded in her history. Slight shocks were felt 111 Charles ton and Summerville on Aug. i27ih, but very little attention was paid ; to tho newspaper reports of them. The greatest .shock causing the greatest damage to life and prop erty occurred in Charleston. .. t len o'clock of the night of August :11st. Different accounts are given of the course of the wa ve of of Hie earth quake, bul the most uuth -uSic opin ion is thal Us course was from Last to West, though diverging more or le.-s ?it various points. Thc wave seems to have been im mediately proceeded by ii low rum bling noise, and many say thal while the ground was quivering beneath their feel they felt the ef fects of an electric current. Of the i eight shm-ks that were most per? j ceptihiy fell during thc nigh! of the 31st, the first was tim most SC ? vere and longest, lasting about .three minutes. Several shocks : were felt during tho Ibo llrsl of I Sept einher, and also during the I night of the >;mie day. The dam I age to properly in charleston i-* I estimated at from five to ten mil ' lions. Three-fourths of the houses '? will nave to he repaired and re i built, st. Phillips < 'burch, the City ' Hospital and many other suhstllll : Hal buildings were wrecked. ITO m falling brick walls and chimneys, I about sixty lives were lost nnd one 1 hundred wounded. Thc telegraph ' w ires were shaken to the ground ?ami the track of thc South Caro I lina ami North Eastern llailroads ! was badly displaced. On Septem ber the 2d, the ?Veir* and Courier failed to issue, and all business was suspended. Men, women and chil dren deserted tho dwellings-most of them being uninhabitable. The crows are tented on Broad street I and in the < '?ty I 'ark. At Summerville it is s:i?,| that i thereare fissures ju the earth, from j which waler, sand and marl were . erupted. About four hundred per , sons from Summerville sought shelter in Columbia on the Isl inst. A train on the South Carolina rail road w as wrecked al Langley, s. ( '., the dam on Horse Creek being I rent hy the shock, nnd the water washed away the track for a mile. The fireman was killod and thoen giiioer badly injured. Lamps were overthrown and lire broke out in three different local Hie consuming about 20 dwellings. Fissures are also seen In and around Charleston.
