THAT "IiONO HAD WAIL."
In a card published in tho Her
ald, Mr. W. Ii. OKAY criticises an
article which appeared in tho col
onna of our contemporary, th? Her
ald, ami takes occasion to say, "To
add Insult to injury already done,
THE LAURENA ADVERTISER comos
forth with a loug sad wail under
tho headlines of 'A Herioua Matter'
and chanta tho funeral dirge of our
factory enterprise."
Ono tiling la evident, viz: Mr. NV.
L. OKAY did not road tlio nrticlo in
question in Tm: ADVERTISER.
It ia said that Mr. Wi ii. ?HAY ia
tho moving spirit in thc factory en
terprise, if that bo so, and if lie
moves In that enterprise witli no
greater caution mut forethought
than ho ima exercised before stum
ping our article "the funeral dirge
of our factory enterprise," it ia
quite probable that such n chant
will bo appropriate er? long. Wo
dofy any mun to show wherein our
nrticlo was "adding insult to in
jury." "Wo did say thia:
Just think of lt! In two wooka Sixty
Thousand Dollarn wore subscribed to a
faetorv at Laurens, And yet for want of
a leading spirit Who had tl)? norvo mid
fihtek lo nold ont, tho ontorprlaa failed
o arrow to completion ! Let us all make
a desperat o effort -a lone pull and n pull
?ItOffothor-to Imild this factory, and
thon tho grand possibilities before un
will be realized.
Thia is tho "long sn?l Avail" tho
''funeral dirge of our fa ?tory onter
priso" which we sung.
No, Mr. G HAY, you will find after
awhile that simple blowing will
not build a factory, lt is pleasant
to look at tho rapid progress we
have made; wo delight to contrast
tho Laurena of to day with tho llt
tlo town of oven six yoars ngo; the
"modern mansions that have
sprung up on every hill," too, aro
pleasing to tho gaze; but, all these
things, together with the delightful
specticlc of seeing ''our little town
emorge from tho dark days of Rad
icalism," will not build a cotton
factory.
THE ADVERTISER can do but lit
tle towards accomplishing such a
dealt able result, as starting
manufactorlng enterprises. "Wo
havo no money to invest in that
way, but wo submit tho
record to provo whether or not we
have pulled for thisenterpri.se. We
havo endeavored *o call tho atten
tion of the poople to the advanta
ges of tho enterprise, to thc money
that can be made, to tho amount
saved to tho cotton growers, and
numerous other arguments have
we presented. This we will con
tinue to do. Hut we make no vain
and idle boasts. When enthusiasm
in an ontorprise dies out, we say
so. It la neither the part of good
policy nor honesty to make greater
pretensions than thc facts justify.
If Laurens can get no boom other
than that which a newspaper can
give by purling imaginary schemes,
then wo want no boom at all. Gas
and bluster,-tho fife and drum
may insvire men in hatti -, but a
factory is built on allttlo different
plan. IJuneomh may do in a polit
ical campaign, but even then we
havo known instances where a
man has defeated lils favorite can
didate by indulging in such luxu
ries only moderately.
THE ADVERTISER makes no
claim to great achievements whilr
wo do olaim the ri ;ht to wntk
in tho interest of our town,
county and state as wo seo best.
From tho dally papers wo sec
that quito a numbor of projects are
on foot to erect monuments in va
rious Southern cities, which are to

quiahod themselves In the "lost

THIS PUBLIC KOA DH.
Tim? and again lins THE ADVER
TISER condemned tho passage of
nil tocal laws. This wo believe to
he tho fruitful .source of dissatis
faction und lawlessness, and a se
rious error into which l?gislation
in this ita tc has fallon. During the
last session of tho legislature Sena
tor MURRAY proposed n new mode
of working the public highways in
Anderson Couti y. While it is true
TlIR ADV K. HT I s r. it cannot endorse
some of Senator MURRAY'S itleas,
this chango in the road law is wc
believe good, and if instead of ap
plying to one county it had been
made the law of tho state, no intel
ligent thinking man could object to
it. As it is however, much dissat
isfaction exists in Anderson. Home
sections of the county have gone
so far as to declaro that they will
not hood tho law, but will work thc
roads as heretofore. Wo cannot
see by what system of reasoning
those who were sent te moko laws
for the state, carno to the conclusion
that this law was good for Ander
son and not good for tho State.
That our public road* need atten
tion isa fact which no one will con
trovert. While tho Murray road
law is a docided improvement on
tho old system, yet it might bo im
proved upon. Tho great trouble
with our road working is, that po
man is responsible for it. Io this
issue will be lound an articlo from
The Nation) in speaking ol dirt
roads it says, "The reason they stlf
"for is that, as they have no stand
"ard of goodness in roads, oud do
"not make specific requirements
"as to what shall bo ?.ono to keep
"tho roads in guodorder, it is never
"possible to bring trustees, or select
"men, or roadmastors to a proper
"account. They always escape if
"they can show they have put on
"tho annual spring plaster; aud
"when lt is washed away, as it is
"sure to he a little later, they throw
"tho blame on the freshets, and the
"simple citrr.cn, not knowing what
"to say in answer to them, says
"nothing."
Now if we had only ono County
Commissioner whose duty it would
bc to seo that the provisions of such
a law as tho Anderson Act were
enforced and to whom tho people
might look for road improvements,
in a for?' years we would have com
paratively good roads without ad
ditional cost.
Our correspondent "Joo Prince"
is one of tho most clear headed and
intelligent men in the county and
certainly a piquant writer, but it
seems that his r.eal in tlie cause of
prohibition has so overcome him
this week that he is lead to adopt
an altogether unfair modo of rea
soning.
In the end, nothing can be gain
ed by stirring to array any two clas
ses against each other. To say that
citir.ens outside of town should vote
to stop tho granting of licenses be
cause they (in the county) are for
bidden this privilege, is a flmsy
argument to say tho least. No ad
vocate of license, whether bebo in
town or a thousand from a town, if
he is engaged in managing laborers
would want liquor sold indiscrimi
nately throught the county.
That is out of thc question, for the
law provides that no liquor can pos
sibly be sold in this state outside of
the towns, and the fate of the Mur
ry bill can in nowise affect thal law.
If simply withoIdiugliccn.se would
stop the sale of liquor, then would
wo all volo for prohibition, but the
experience of this town and all oth
ers of this size, shows that it isa
failure. At a recent gathering of
editors in this state, tho writer
made in qulry and found that while
immy of them were prohibitionists,
not one w ould gay that "no license"
had accomplished anything in their
town. Itwasfrcoly admitted that
liquor was hon ght and sold in every
placo mentioned. This has boen
tho case with us, and what assu
rance have us that it will be better?
Wc would be glad for some one
to undertake tl ? task of showing
wherein the "Murry law" ls likely
to do more than tho other prohibi
tion farce enacted hero sonic time
back.
When a farmer is asked the con

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
(tty Our Regular Correspondent.)
Washington, June 10th 1887.
For the last two weeks, this boun
tiful city has hail thc"unusual visi
tation of a heavy rain, ulnmstjdaily
nu experience that is becoming ex
tremely monotonous, nwt to say an
noying.
In politioal circles, especially
airibnjr Democrats, tho questions
most discussed aro tho tariff, tba
surplus in thc National Treasury,
and thc probuBl extra session of
Congress in October next, to con
sider those moment us issues of
such grave import both to the wel
fare of the country and the success
of tho Democracy. Mr Randall
and the protection Democrats gene
rally, oppOSO an extra session, sind
it is thought the President rather
inclines to the same opinion, while
Mr Carlisle and his adherents are
understood to favor an extra sesi?n.
Dur, while there ls great diversity
of sentiment upon these subjects
all agree upon one proposition-that
something must be done by Con
gress, to relieve the people of tho
united States from evils resulting
from our present system of inter
nal taxation and a faulty fis Mil pol
icy inherited from the Republicans,
both of which appear to combine to
produce industrial depression and
increase of tho surplus.
Public Printer Benedict is still
wooding out a large number of his
employes, and it would seem dis
missal from tho public service is
the order of tho day, ns ten clerks
in thc office of tho second Control
ler of the Treasury have been noti
tlcd that their official services will
not be required after July 1st and
about the same number will lu?
dropped off the Datent Office rolls
about that time; there are no char
ges against those unfortunates
they will bc simply legislated out
of nfilee. And so between tho fear
of dismissal and the now nightmare
of civil service reform for the ins,
as well ns tho outs, many of the
poor clerks aro broken of thrir rest
and have a pale, haggard, hunted
look.
Ho SUCCCSSftll Was tho Into Nation
al Drill from a military standpoint
-wholly the result of Individual ef
fort-that General Sheridan, us
commander of tho United States
Army, will, in bis annal report to
the Secretary of war, recommend
that Congress made provisslon
for an annal drill and encamp
ment, to be hebl under the
auspices of the Army in Washing
ton, in order that the irrepressible
American military spirit may lie
gratified ami disciplined.
Thc flags on nil the public buil
dings in the National Capital were
placed at half mast, by order of the
President, on the day of the funeral
of Wm. A. Wheeler, tho mun who,
by tho la vor of fraud, filled the first
j term of vice-President Thomas A.
I Hendrick .. Mr Wheeler, after retir
ing from olfice, lapsed into such ut
ter obscurity, becoming, too, both
a mental and a physical wreck in
recent years.-that he had been al
most forgotten by the public. I will
do tho dead man the poor justice
ts) say that he was far hot?or than
his accomplice, R. D. I lay li who, as
u common chicken farmer, survives
to bear tho shame of the great out
rage on liberty of tho century.
It is whispered from the White
House that ail event of n most in
teresting nature,-one that will bo
memorable in history and in tIto
home-life of the President and his
youthful wife, is likely to occur In
that grund mansion in the melanch
oly days of Nt ve m ber.
John Sherman lian formed tl com
bination with Levi P. Morton, the
illillinna re statosman( ?) of N< w
York, by which it is proposed to
wrest tho Empire ?State front
Blaine's support and mukethe Re
publican ticket .Sherman and Mor
on. Tho la ttcr'fl chief motive in
in th? deal is to revenge himself up
on tho Blaineacs for defeating him
f tr United State.Senator last winter.
Tho strife in York between the
Blaine and .Sherman forces in wax
lng SO wami that it may ultimate
ly revive all tho latont bitterness
of the quarrel of the Stalwart and
IIiilf-Broed factions, which led to
resignation of Conk li UK and ifeToo
Patt, the disrupt! ?ii of ; tho Repub

sassination of Garfield.
