QARLINQTON dc CO., Proprietors. W.'l_I-j_'_. .?_1?-J.JL LOCAL LAWS. For years there has been a gow lng tendency in legislation towards passing local laws,-laws for the Counties. From present Indica tions, the session of, 8(1 will cap the climax in this direction. Indeed this appears to be the marked char acteristic of this legislature. Tho members who raised the greatest howl about reducing taxation, have proven themselves to be conspicu ous failures, and have devoted the time which should bc give to the in terest of South Car.dina, to (juibllng over local hill. Koman history tells of a time when laws were posted so high that men could not rend them, but such u state of attars would be preferred to the tangled mass, which tin? statute books of South Carolina will present, if our law-makers persist iiV their present course, it is astonishing to know how many bills, not local in their nature, but gene ral, apply only to certain Counties. Costs of public o Ince rs j the man agement of thc school fund; the Trial Justice system, and many other i in por ta ut matters differ ii. ?different Counties as much as if each County was in a different State. Some members of the Genend as sembly seem to think that unless they can boast of the authorship of some particular bill, they will not get credit for having done their du ty. Under this insane idea of their duty, they .sot to work to frame a bill to remedy some imaginary de feat. When the lull is presented, tho member linds that the major ity have not viewed lus "reform'' as he did and that inevitable de feat awaits his measure; conse quently he asks that the measure be made to apply to the County he represents; another member asks that his County be included, and so on. Thus it is that different laws arc in force in different Counties, and ere long we may expect an entirely different County government for each Imperium. Representatives seem to lose sight of the fact that they are members of the legislature of the State, but prefer to be a mem bers for the County that happened tosend them. Now we submit, that a law, unless it is local in its nature, that is good for this County, is good for the State, and should be passed by the State and for the State. In wisdom the framer- of our constitution have said 124 men shall pass the laws under which we live, and not thc few who are ap portioned to each County. it ls the duty of each member to look at public matters as they affect thc State, aside from all sectional prej udice. The people have expressed confidence in their ability to do that which is best, but they can never do it. so long its they ar?- all the time trying to curry favor at home, and tremble lest they may offend someone. THE OlTLOOK Probably since the creation of the world, no community has ever been free from croakers. "Hard times,'' ls the constant dreary song that ls heard in every clime, and hus come to bo common-place and stereo typed. Hut few persons now liv ing have seen greater depression and scarcity of money than exists at this time. "The hard times" of the fall of 8(> is unfortunately more that the croakers song, it is real and is felt in every avocation. One of the great drawbacks to farmers, ls that they cannot pay Cash for supplies. In these days of sharp competition a little cash In the hands of farmers during the Summer months, would do moro to wards keeping down the cost of raising cotton than anything else. So long as merchants are compell ed to credit men; so long, they will loso a large per cont of their accounts; and so long as this i? the case, they will be compelled to place a large profit on goods. For mers aro compelled to buy m.my thing on time, but they should ex ercise tho same care they would in cash purchases. This is not the case generally as u Illustrated by a Georgia newspaper. A mun asked the price of coats in a stor , Tho storekeeper Offered various garment- cheap for cash, but the man would not buy and finally the merchant picked out a coat that cost him fl.(16 and offered lt to him for $10, agreeing to tnko $2 in cash jiml,t ru d bim for tho balance. Tho enstomer Jumped at the offer, and without oven trying (Mi (he coat( paid tho and went away happy ut his ability to owe $8. Tho store keeper will not worry if ho does not got the money. A WAY OUT We e.otlee in several of our ex changes tho'qttostlQn, why a short cotton crop does not bring ningher pri?e? The answer to this is easy. Because farmers an; not able to hohl their cotton. The great bulk of tho cotton of the world is thrown on tho market at ono time, and Inasmuch as it is forced on tho mar ket by tho pecuniary circumstances of those who raise it, buyers instead of sellers tlx tho price. As usual after tho crop bas passed out of the hands of growers, the price is now advancing.*) Ycar.aftoryear, we soo this is the ease. Now for this evident Injustie, then) ls a remedy, and WO belivo il is within the renell of the farmers of Laurens County. Perhaps some one will express surprise /. bea Tor A DVKKTlSKH expresses the opinion that tho solution of this practical problem depends upon the through organization of farmers, lint this will not astonish those who are eov staat readers of this paper. While we have opposed snob ephemeral quasi-political log-rolling organiza tions as have sprung up allover the land, and died on the day of the Primary lOlcction, we have, never opposed the organization of farmers when tho object was lo better their condition. If instead of running these farmers clubs into political machines, they bad sought to timi tho grievances of farmers and the remedy, we might have looked for a permanent organization ono mat would not depend upon a heated political campaign for its life. Lut to thu point. Thc pinn we suggest is this. Let thc the far mers organize and establish, at the convoient depots throughout tho country for cotton warehouse, in which to store cotton as it is pre pared for market. They can elect men to take charge of this cotton, insure it otc give a .bond and take UCCOUUt of all deposited, l'pou a certificate of deposit af rom the man in charge, farmers can go either to the banks or to private individu als and hy paying a small interest can get on a loo pound bale, say, $5)0,00 by allowing tho cotton to stand pledged for thc money, this can bo easily arranged. Indeed it is exactly the arrangment that nine tenths of tho cotton buyers make. Tiley tleposit with factors, an amount salUeoat to cover loss, and allow the cotton to stand pledged fortlie balance. Why can those who raise the cotton not do the same thing? After tho cotton is deposited i* cnn be sold whenever the price satisfies the owner. Cer tain days might be appointed for salo when buyers from all parts ol* the lands could be present and take any desired quantity. Wo commend this .scheme not only to Agricultural (.'bib, bul to every thinking man who is seek ing to benefit bis condition Take and discuss it improve upon it and we belivo it eau be placed in such a tangable shape as to be of real ben efit. VARIOUS VIEWS VENTILATED. What Somo Mon Think of tho Anderson Laurcns Prohibition Bill.

Tho following gentlemen inter viewed, expressed themselves as follows : James Furrow: I have taught ami practiced' total abstinence from intoxicating drinks all my life. I not only never took a drink in my life hut never offered ono to anybody else, and never paid a cent for any kimi of stimulant used in "treats" before or after elections. But I have always opposed "legis lation" as a moans for making peo ple sober or otherwise virtuous. Life involves many rights, the har monizing of whirh is < I i tili-tilt In human eyes, and the well being of both individuals and if society do ponds on rightly judging between many conllicting principles and ob ligations.
