On thc 24th day of 1)< comber
18H0, an act was passed hy thc leg
islature of tilts state, empowering
the Board of Agricultuie to locate
two experimental stations, one in
the Piedmont region and one 111 the
lower tier of counties. The Hoard
was required to give ninety days
notice that bids would bo received,
and this was done. After six months
surely every community had time
to na aka a bid if they so desired.
At any rate this was the reasonable
conclusion of thc Hoard, and they
have examined tho several offers
and have properly accepted the
highest, which gives one station to
Spartanburg and one to Darling
ton. Several of our exchanges
think the action unwise, inasmuch
as other counties might have offer
ed moro if the matter had bern de
ferred until after thc Fail meeting
of the General Assembly. |The Act
?aid give the notice as "soon us prac
ticable after the passage of this act."
We think the intention of the legis
lature has been carried out.
But, since theelose of the session
of the legislature, Congress has
passed Gie Hatch bill, which ap
propriates a large sum for experi
mental stations in tho several states
This alters thc situation, hut can
not alter the authority given the
Hoard of Agriculture, lt is thought
hy many that these two stations,
cannot receive the appropriations
of the Hatch bill, but that the mon
ey ls given to tho Annex of the
South Carolina College. This be
ing the case, we will have $10*000
and the phosphate royalty, given
yearly by the state, and another
fully equipped experimental sta
tion gi von by by the general gov
ernment. This, as we think, will
ho more stations than are necessa
ry. In view of these ?facts, let the
Board of Agriculture take the ad
vicoof thc New <v Courier, and "has
.ten slowly" in expending money
?on these stations, until after tho
?meeting of the legislature.
The world is full of medlers.
"There are men In some localities

IBventbe New York Herald has
been lend ?stray by tho flloovcr
hubbub, and in commenting on tho
affair says, that the whites of tho
Soutdn know that the colored peo
ple have410 love for those who once
administered tho lash. Hut fortu
nately, the fact is different. There
may have beena time In thi.s sec
tion, when, under tho Influence and
leadership of carpet-baggers and
M?olawags, tho negroes mistrusted
their former masters, but ton
years of home-rule and democratic
supremacy, has removed the last
vest agc of fear on thc part of the
negroes. They know by experience
that tho white man-the Southern
white mail-ls their best friend. In
times of trouble they go to their
former musters; in prosperity they
receive from them encouragement.
It ls absolute folly for the North
ern press to attempt to make lt ap
pear that there is anything in the
South bordering on race animosity.
bur democratic doctrine, which is
that tho most worthy shall receive
political honors, excludes the negro
from office, but lt is violent to pre
sume that because we refuse to bo
ruled by negroes, that therefore we
hate thc mee. This is most em
phatically a mistake. Tho white
men do not hate the negroes, und
the negroes know lt; nor do the ne
groes hate tho whites. Tho world
hos never given un example of two
races having such vast differences,
morally, intellectually, socially,
living under the ?ame government,
with political equally, who have
maintained such friendly relation
towards eaeh oilier. The negroes
aro dependant, and so long as they
recognise tho whites as superior
and as friends,-so long as they are
willing to occupy tho social plano
on which destiny has placed them,
they need fear nothing.
Governor (mnDON commuted
the sentence of a iniirdorer from
doath tv imprisonment lor Ufe,>nd
the citizens of Dutton. Ga., hung
tho Governor in effigy. Such
shameful disicspcct to tho chlot
executive officer of the state must
be condemned. Governor GORDON,
in the exercise of power vested in
him by the constitution, examined
the morl ts of this case and came to
the conclusion that it was worthy
of executive clemency. Those who
engaged tn this disgraceful insult
have undoubtedly failed to injure
Ibo character tho illustrious GOR
DON, or to reflect upon his official
integrity. Considering tho fact that
there arc grave doubts as to the
guilt of tho condemned man, this
action of the people show s that it
is not beyond tho range of possibil
ity that some of the evldonae was
trumped up. At any rate the dig
nity of the commonwealth has not
suffered by this act of clemency.
When we consider the fact that
the National Bank of Laurens has
been in operation only one your,
and of course has been at great ex
pense during the llrst year, two
thousand dollars surplus and four
per cent divided is a line showing.
No better stock can be, found than
this Bank offers.
Wo suggest that the Grand Jury
of thi*. county call the attention of
tho Legislature to the necessity of
allowing Trial Justices to have Ju
risdiction in eases of petit larceny.
The ends of justice aro not subserv
ed by forcing theso trilling eases
through the expensive machinery
of the Court of Sessions.
This State ls due Col. I. G. Me
hi issiek a vote of thanks for his
persistence in presenting to the
legislature a hill to make the steal
ing of water-melons a misdemean
or. A man has as much right to
enjoy the fruits of his lindon patch

that such an Act was not passed
long ago.

The reactionary effect of the dis

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
Washington, July 2nd. 1887
June 80th, being the end of tho
fiscal year, there is now much fear
among many of the Department
clerks as a reduced legislature ap
propriation hill makes necessary a
corresponding reduction lu tho cle
rical force of tho Government, and
it is certain that a shower of official
heads will fall into the department
waste-basket. For this reason not
a few (dorks have doforrod taking
their usual leave, not wishing to be
to? far away from their influential
friends on this dread day. At this
time, too, the presence of un un
usually large number of Congress
men in the city ls due to a desire
to protect their proteges.
Cue day this week tho Depart
ment of Justice was dm pud iii mour
ning in memory of James Speed,
Attorney General in P resident Lin
coln's Cabinet. AI r Speed was a
steadfast Republican until 1881,
when bc repented ot" his evil polit
ical associations ways and redeem
ed himself by enlist!ng in the col
urns of Cleveland an d Hendricks.
Il there had been a few thousand
such women on th?? Union side as
sh o of w hom 1 iiowwrite, the Civil
war would not have lasted two,
years.This lady, aMrsBrown,of W
Vu., has borne in all .'{.'J children, 20
of tho number being boys, Hi of
whom served in the (inion Army,
Of which number bul two wen; kill
ed} each of the other 14 draws a
pension from tho Government for
disabilities reeievod in service and
the death of two sons also entitles
the mother to a pension. General
Black says the Hies of the office
fail to show another record where
the 16 sons of ono father and moth
er served in the late war.
Tho military spirit lately Infused
into the citizen* of Washington ls
still rife, as is evidenced by the or
ganization ol three or four militia
companies during the past month,
Which have been formed into a Na
tional Guard, mirier tho direction
ami command ofGonoral Ordway,
so that In case of foreign invasion
or civil conflict tho Capitol of the
Nation would be able to furnish
many defenders from Its own lire
sides.
It is a matter of history that the
original Grand Armyofthe Repub
lic was almost disrupted, that its in
fluence and usefulness was impair
ed, and that lt had to be reorganiz
ed because Its managers unwisely
permitted it turned into a partisan
Republican machino, lt now seems
that history ls about to repeat Itself
In this instance, OS General Fair
child, Its commander-in-chief, says
that the financial work of last year
was the drafting of the Department
Pension Bill. A Bill has been made
out and sent to all Of thc posts for
approval, those of this city having
given their endorsement, another
attempt will he made to haul mil
lions out ef the Treasury. Then
the Tuttle and battle-Hag episodes
considered In the same connection
seem to clearly fore-shadow a polit
ical conspiracy in the Grand Army.
Therefore I advise Democratic
members of the G. A. R. to keep a
sharp eye on their Republican
brethren all along the line.
Report has it that there is a se
rious estrangement between tho
President and Secretary Endicott.
That the resignation of the man of
ancient and illustrious lineage has
heon called for, and will |be forth
coming within 80 days. It is
thought the last difference aros?
out of th? Secretary's hasty action
ip advising the return of tde battle
Hags, although I am informed that
there ha* long boon a painful lack
of cordiality botwoon tho two gen
tlemen, and that any body else but
fie Secretary would, have resigned
at almost auy time in the past six
months.
Those days about evory third
Congressman or Ex-Cnnaressnian
who entes the omeo of Secretary
Lamar is 'ni once bulletined In
tho newspapers as his successor, it
being generally assumed that tho
S 'crotary will take his seat on tho
Supremo Hench in October at
whiohtime, Ithink tho appointment
will be announeod and accepted,
for who can atFoid to decline an
honor sooxhalted? All this sum
mer I believe tho President will be
canvassing for a suitable Secretary
of tho Interior, and there can bo
little doubt, thut'in tho exorcise of
his usual sound judgment, he will
tink the right man for tho place.
It ls quite likely that tho Presi
dent und Mrs Cleveland will take
another pleasure trip in July, and
that tho two expect to celebrate
Mrs Cleveland's twenty-third birth
day occuring on July 21st, in some
quiet mountain retreat of tho "Old
Dominion."
Tho Commissioners of tho f)ls
triet of Columbia have issued a re
vised set of ordinances for tho gov
ernment of the citizens of Wash
ington, regulating everybody and
everything from the crowing of a
cock to tho shooting of a fire crack
er. The small boys have already
gotten ahead of the Commissioners
by biding in barns and stables to
set oir tire-works, tho result being
two targe tires.
Selecting an Empress.
The Emperor of China to Marry.- How the
WIVOB are Selected from the Mott Beau
tiful Women. An Important Evjnt.
San Francisco, July JJ.-Some
time ago Ibo Empress Dowager of
China, who is said to be anublo wo
man, and who has reigned ns re
gent, Issuod an edict through the
Pekina Gazed, that the Emperor
should marry, and set a date when
a reception should be held to ean
ditates for the high honor. Ever
since the receipt of this edict, tho
Chinese residents of this city have
speculated much on whom the
choice would fall to marry his im
perial majesty, Kwong Suey, "Son
of Heaven" and "Lord of Ten Thou
sand Years," etc. News which has
been anxiously looked for was re
ceived In this city yesterday, an
nouncing that a brido had been se
lected for tho young emperor and
that -fOjtKWjOOO will be expended tn
the celebration of this most auspi
cious event. When the announce
ment of when th? marriage will
take place is received here, the chi
nese residents will prepare for a
proper observance of the event.
Tho day will be made a holiday,
tho dragon Hag ?viii be floated, leas
ing made the or dor of business, and
a procession and other exercises
will ba held. Hut as yet tho date
of tho marriage remains with tho
fates, which tlie astrologers of the
empire must divine,
The tirst ceremony of betrothal
ls the choice of the bride, A Chi
nese Empress is not chosen for no
bility of family or reputation*
although generally she is taken
from the nobility. Her personal
beauty is almost exclusive require
ment. The mother of Mien Fung,
ll former empress, kept a fruit stall.
The emperor himself has nothing
to do with the selection of the em
press, Ono of the requirements of
tlie would bo bride was that she
should be of the Mongolian race,
as no other blood hus been permit
ted to rule in tho Chinese Luipi re
for 250 years.
On tin? appointed day the Mon
golian papas and mamas took their
fairest daughters to tb?' empress'
palace. The empress with her la
dies, thou chose the handsomest
virgin. She should be ?'inpress,
but tho emperor is also legally on
titleil to eight qneons. Consequent?
lp ?'ight other handsome virgins
wore chosen to fill these high offi
ces. The personalities of theso se
lections have not renchod ibis city
but the next mail is expected to
furnisn the particulars. From all
accounts F.mperor Kwong Suoy is
a commendable young man, und
has considerable influence with
Confucius and other gods. On May
4, for instance, he prayed for rain.
China pupers relate that on May 13
it rained. All China fell down on
Its knees to express thanks for the
beneficent hoar! ag of Kwong Sueys
petition.
Suey was born in 1881, and was
crowned at the ugo of 4. He is a
son of tho seventh brother of the
emperor proceeding the last. It
is expected that aft or tho marriage
the Empress Dowager will hand
over tho reins of government to
Suey.
