Hut few of our citizens seem to re alize tho grout importance of keep ing thc Laurens County Agricultu ral tutti Mechanical Association ill successful running order. ( ertali it is that tho town people havi been entirely too careless in thi matter. Them is talk of behlin; the next fair at some other pola than the town of Laurens, but c course this is Impracticable, nub s the citizens of the town persistent ly indicate that they do not wau the exhibition by withholding en courogemcnt again as they have o former occasions. Whim this tow fully realizes the importance of an measure from a base-ball ton rim ment to n cotton factory, she open her hoart and coffers and the rosu is success to tho enterprise. But seems that the advantage to tl: town, tho county, the state and tl citizens individually, to How fro these annual gatherings of farme at tho county-seat to exhibit thc skill omi incite rivalry, is not lui appreciated by anybody. A cou ty fair cannot he. successfully a ranged in a day, aud hence it \ hooves those wdio have n pride their county and their calling bestir themselves in time. T Association has given highly eic ituble exhibitions in the past, b there is evident room for i in pro \ mont. Let the executive comm tee be d?ligent, lot the pooplo < operate, and let the year 1887 set forever that Ute county fair is a pi manentand progressive institute liCtthe proper steps be taken time and lhere is little doubt th tho enthusiasm and money n*?c Bary to make thc fair a succc Will bo forth-coining. THF. LAURENS SENSATION. Laurens County "awoke one m nlug to lind herself famous." La lossnesS in Laurens is placed as t head-line for many an editora] Southern newspapers and not a f elsewhere. What a pity that fame of .grand old chivalrous Lu oasis destined to rest upon deed violence ? If'tts true that "ft ! good name.is ne'er retrieved," ti we stand accursed forever, this hist episode in toe history Laurens could easily have been j vented. It w as not exactly a c of much ado-about mithin, .bute tainly a little spark ha > burst i ft great llame. If, instead of writ sensational letters in every dh tion, the.citizens of Cedar Qr had reported the first intimatio unlawful assemblages to the per office of tho law, tho Sheriff, matter would have been Invest tod without delay and flu; so tion would have ended. We have refrained from < ment on this affair so tar, Ian the facts wero not deflnatoly a. tainod. At present however, not reasonable to expect anyt like an outburst of violence, it is now certain, first, that thc groes in tho vicinity do hold si meetings; and secondly, they Well armed. Now, laking t facts together, knowing the < ulous and unsuspecting na till tho.so who aro thus assembled, not unreasonable to fear that may, under the guidance of un thj leaders, be lead to violate law. What eau be tho Objoi tho secret mooting? Why they armed? Tho cours* Governor Richardson In ord an investigation must be com dod, and it may bo that bis prc noss has prevented a repel i ti? tho recent Yorkville lyn? Everything povsiblo should bo to prevent such a horriblo tra Lyneh-law on all occasions mi deplored. Periodically it seems, .Sou farmers and moro especially* mon, catch the Westorn Th ?y go but they return agni ser but in few cases be tl er n nanclally orotherwlso. Pm in tho West, is not different farming in this country so I profit is concerned. Mon win failed here, fail there also, an amount of Eastern capital th boon loaned on farm mortgag ring tho past three years I Wost is alarming and an literally to millions of lsrs. As it is In this sta farmer who cnn lay by a at the end of tho year Is a exception IQ tho West, without commercial forti It ls not location that can farming profitable,but il tl exercised, dllllgenco In pri ij g farm operations, and mor al! tho ubillly to slop small leak? ami save what is made. Tho man i who allows a mortgage to settle on his farm, whether he ho in South Carolina or 'lexus, U in danger. His iu:vcr difficult for a white person lo become tv "nigger," but the Gazette tells of ti woman in Augusta who is undergoing a trans formation from black to white. OLK WASHINGTON LETTER Washington, 1). C. June, 'J7 is. T am glad to be able to say tlutl Mr Corcoran bus recovered suffic iently to seek the. cooling shades of Poer Turk he being unable to stand tho tntiguc of the tri? lo his usual resort, tho White .sulphur ?Springs. For the present tin* President has discontinued his public recep tions, owing probably to tho severe ordeal of such un undertaking, with the thermometer dnlying with the nineties. lt has just transpired 1 hat during Mr Jay Gould's late mysterious vis it to this city, he really did a gell? erous and patriotic act, for which I wish to give him" credit. While viewing Mt. Vernon, w here Wash ington's remains uro entombed,Mr Gould, learning that a tract of land contiguous to the estate was desir ed to protect the property from en croachment, be ordered it bought at bis expense for $2.500 the own ers being Lawrence and ICli/nhctll Washington, gront-grund-nophew and niece of the H rat President ami presented it to the Indies ol'the Mt. Vernon Association. Tlu> grand jury of tho District of Columbia have, in their report, pre sented the Post (Miloo, Treasury, and Interior Department buildings as being in such a had sanitary con dition US to endanger the health and lives of tin? several thousand employed of those Departments, und the Government Printing of fice, as well as some of thc theatres, are pionounccd nothing bolter than human lire traps. In calling tho altontlon of Congress to Ibo matter, tho grund jury will say that if a private Individual were respon sible for such n state ol alfa I rs as this, he would bc indicted for main taining a nuisance. Tie- building inspector had this to say on tho subject of the printing ellice, "lt is the worst lire frap in tho United States, and a disgrace lo the Gov ernment. That building is four ?tories high, 800 feet long to feet wide, and in the two upper stories about 1,500 women work, and yet thoro is only one stairway for them to escape by in case of a tire. Once more tho bend of thc assas sin, GultClUl, bobs Up to public view, and will be exhibited in a .New York Museum, lt is said by those familiar with the circuios; neos that there can bo no doubl ol' tho genuineness of this bead. Tho bones of the assassin were articulated and placed in the Medical Museum of the National Capitol, where they still remain, but it now is divulged, that a doctor severed thc hoad, ami perhaps other pori ions ol' the body for speculative rather than scienti fic purposes. Pension Commissioner Binck has decided to exercise ibo authority vested in him by l*\v lind to res trict the legal foes 111 eases o? At torneys for Mexican Pi nsion-clnims to$10 though thc law allows a fee of $25, if such a contract has boen made, provided it is approved hy the Commissioner of pensions. Hut General Black thinks tho former fee is enough in such casos and has issued un order limiting fees in these, cases to thal amount. Tho business of tho [ntor-slate Commission continues lo grow and bas already reached proportions not anticipated by its authors or mem bers, and it is now believed that the work will require the services ol about fifty clerk -. Thoro have been nearly ii'?,<n? applications for appointment toclorKship under I he Commission. Such vast an I va ried inloicsts are committed to tho charge of the Commission thal it will soon bc rightly considered ono nf the most important Du roans of the Government and ono that will continue to grow' ill popular favor. There ls dismay muong tho aged und incnptiblo (dorks of tho Navy Department, for Secretary Whit ney announces his purpose to over haul tho whole force and clean out ll the barnacles and dead timber. Tho Secretary seems to think that thi course, however unpopular with those affected, is essential t? ? tho successful administration of his trust. lteeont developments convince me that Ibo Republicans aro im pressed with ?doa that their only hope of success in isis is to agitate sectional issues and inflame tho mind of the people of thc North with tho old war feeling. The llrsl stop to this end ls tho Dopondonl Pension Pill, the next its echo, tho battle Hag howl, and tho third will be the conversion of the Grund Ar my of the Republic into n partisan Republican organization, to bc rounded up hythe nomination of fl Military candidate, or a bloody shirt shriekor. Tho cs ti inn tod receipts and dis bursements of tho Government in July and August show thal thoro Will be a decrease rather than au increase ol the Treasury surplus during that time. Af tor providing for * 10,716,000, of tho :i por cont bonds due July 1st, tho surplus will be about $37,000,000. Tho pension appropriation of $70,070,000, for the fiscal year ending Juno 80, 1887, is already exhausted, consequently the Pension Bureau, reports that when thc new appropriation he comes available July Isl ?t will draw $12,000.000 for pons?ons, leav ing then a Treasury surplus of $25, 000,000. "' . t ...-KU PROHIBITION, nv c. i,. Pf KB, To prove that this is a national evil I call up throT States in oppo site (I i roe di 00-Maine, iowa and Georgia. Lid them testify in re? flfard to this. State of Maine says: "It ls so great an evil up hore wc havo anathematized it as a State." -Stat??of Iowa says : "It is so great an evil out here we have pt oh i bi tot I it-by constitutional amendment." Stato ot* Georgia says; "it is so great mi evil down hore that nine ty counties of this stato havo made tho sah' ol* intoxicating drink n criminality." So tho word comes up from all sources; and it is going to lu< a Waterloo; und 1 want you to know on what sido l am going to bc win n that Waterloo is fully rome, and I want you to bo <>" the right side. Hither dru uk noys will be destroyed In this country, ortho American government will be de stroyed. Tal ma ff e. lt has beor lound that prohibito ry laws do not very thoroughly pro hibit. So it has boon found that law against murder, theft and kin dred crimes do not very thoroughly stop tho commission of those crimes but no sane-man advocates tho re peal of those laws on that account. An exchange says; "High Id ?ense was originated in the first general COHN eution ol* bell. A ll the devils, medium si/.o and small dev ils In tho satanic realm were pres ent. A flor the idea wits originated il was banded over to the politi cians and they labeled it tempe rance. A methodist minister who remov od some years ago noni North Car olina t<> K ansas, writes to tho states Vlllo lianIH r: Having been in Kansas for quite :i lime I have good opportunity for watching tho tempor?neo move ment bore. llave traveled several hundred miles und been at various kinds Ot public gatherings, and I have seen loss drunkenness in ono year than I have ill N. G. in one day. So 1 am persuaded that prohibition is a good thing. In every community we lind men, once honored and respected, reduc ed to poverty, wretchedness and dishonor by spending their money ami t Imo in drin king saloons; wives Weighed down with grief and sor row and want, and heart-broken and helpnesschildren grow ing up in ignorance, beggary ami vice, be cause husbands and lathers have boon made drunkards ami vaga bonds by patronizing tho drinking saloons. Millions of dollars are in vested in this business of making men drunkards and in producing the desolation and ruin of women and children, which if employed lu agricultural, manu factoring or com mercial pursuits, and directed by the talents and lime wasted in these drinking houses, would add untold niillions to the aggregated wealth ol thc State, and make as many thousands ol* happy families ns are now made miserable because Ibis money and time are given to tho soiling and drinking of illloxi ?.at i ng liquors.
