WP tiro forced again to reply to n
most malicious attack of tho llor
IIld. Inasmuch as that papor lins stu
diously avoided thc subject which
first culled it forth, we regret this
necessity. Hut the latest onslaught,
tilled a>. it is, from the tlrst lino to
the closing sente ce, with design
ed misrepresentations and perver
sions ot facts, leaves us no o'her
alternative.
The Herald begins by stating
that Mr Young speaks ot hen arti
cles only. Mr Youno; states positive
ly, "I am the atithorot tho articles
signed "Tote fair" published in
Tur. ADVKKTlsF.it in Sept, 1880."
Could anything be more positive?
1< there any evasion or equivoca
tion in this statement. Docs the
word "articles" include only two,
or docs it. mean vece?/ article pub
lished In this pc per at that time.
Does thc fact that it ls sworn to H>1
itmilly alter the statement. Wo
leave those who read to answer.
Hut, furthermore wc will state as a
matter of fact, (substantiated by
our tiles) that ont*/ two articles have
ever appeared in the columns of
Tnt; ADVKKTIHI?R signed "Tote
Fair."
This straw, is rather weak.
The Herald remarks in the next
place :
Rut if Mr Young's affidavit rrovos
anything, and if ho t's tho author, as ho
swears, il proves that Mr.T. C. OarlitiK*
ton, either unintentionally or designed
ly, (w? leave him to say,) in i-.represen
ted the real author ol "Toto /.-ur." At
the time wo culled upon him L>r the
nain?? of tho author, til the suggestion
of "Toto Pair" himself, ho, Mr.Lt' < .ar
lington, UN ?ve have he foro stilted in
theaneoltimiis, plainly intimated that
Mr Yoting w?is not the author.
Xow, after admitting that we
gave the name of lt. H. Young as
the author ot the articles, it is said
WC "intimated that Mr Yoting was
not tho author." What man would
ever thus stultify himself? We
have only this to say concerning
that charge: It is false.
Wo did not intimate to Mr T. H.
frews i r Mr anybody else, that Mr
Young was not the author of these
articles, hut on the. contrary, when
Mr T. Ii. Crews stated to us that
lie did not believe that Mr Young
"wrote tho articles, we stated to
him, that very few persons had sus
pected Mr Young, and that many
persons who had mentioned the
controversy, suggested other
names as tho author; but, that so
far as we knew, lt. II. Yoting alone,
was the author Mr Young bari
authorized US to give his name as
the author, and wi- knew nothing
which would lead us to supj ose
anyone else had a "hand in the pie."
Hut tho Herald says wo gave
"signs of embarrassment," which
"showed guilt." Guilty of what?
wu would like to Knott*. Why docs
the Herald suppose if we bad writ
ten the articles wo would have de
nied it ? What dill tho articles
contain ? What was there to make
us either afraid or ashamed to come
out boldly and a'.knowledge the
authorship ll* it bad been ours. We
did not soe ourself as he saw US,
hut c. rt a I ii it la we felt in? cause for
the slightest agitation or embarrass
ment. We have stated that when
Mr T. H. Crews came to tis for Mr
Younga name, be not only intima
ted that he knew the copy used by
the printer was not in the hand
writing of tho author, hut that he
/.mos ft wo* tn <o/r handwriting.
This statement, he now denies, hut
ndmits that he believed it to he
true at the time. I am positive he
ili<t make this intimstiou, anet
while at that time as now, I saw
nothing in it tc? cause "embarras
mont" I did see cause for the grenf
ell amnz-mont. How did Mr
Crews get this information, known
as I thought, only to Mr Young,
Mr Lockwood and myself?
The Herald makes an elfort to
clear Mr Lockwood, so it says:
In ?utico to li I Irl it is proper that ?ve
state that while ibo controversy with
..Tiilc fair" was In progress ho nsvar
looiitlnned tho nisttor tn us. Ile ?liri
not "betray th? seorot" ?villis employed
io 'II v. A even TISH u outee.
No human being could have seen
tneCopy Mr Young? article for the
printer, save Mr lt, li. Young him
self. Sn human being could have
known that I did so make the copy,
except Mr Young and Mr Lock?
Wooe, unies they came hy such in
formation surreptitiously. Now,
where did the Herald get tho in
formation. Mr T? H. Crews admits
(hat when he carne to this office
for the name of the author nf "Tote
Fair," he believed at that- Hmo the
ropy w as in our handwriting, Tho
question ls, upon what wan tiltil ho
iff founded ? Ji, the great ano on
ly "Senior Kditor" so om n Ment

ellice are known to him by intui

ed, but which he Hays ho will "hurl
huc k lil our face." Our readers cun
decido for themselves, but Break
ing for tho Al>VKRTI8KH we cnn
suv, we take this stuteinent con
cern.DR Mr Lockwood not "betray* i
inp; our secrets," with ninny grains ;
j of allowance. If you be not guilty
I nf these vile methods, thou (five
i your renders moro than lt buhl do
llin). Trove your methods pure.
; Huppose just forth? sake of change,
; Instead of "you'r another," or hurl
! lng back thc charge, suppose you
' chango your style for once and tell
' bow you gol this secret.
1 Declining to discuss further the j
i subject which was tho ostensible
cause oribis attack, you have en
deavored to draw us into nn old
mutter between yourself a nd Mr II.
H. Young. When shown by a
sworn stuteinent ot the anther that
we had no connection with that
matter, scorning ai Kliment and re
jecting reason,you run rough-shod
over sworn statements, you pledge
yourself to believe that M ilich lias
boon branded an famous falshood.
Amt why? Because, 1st tho state
j mont was sworn to, and 'Jud you i
i imagined that WC appeared em- I
i barrassed. Vaulting vanity bas
conjured In yourdtstorted Imagina*
tien some conspiracy, which other
pooplc know bas never existed, and
with tho slogan "ring," you have
begun this unwarranted warfare.
Hut tho question is asked, what
dons the affidavit prove? In an
swer to this wc think it proves a
great deal. It proves conclusive
ly that when you charged those ar- i
tides to a "ring," you linnie a charge
which you could not prove, because
it was false. That, when In an
swer to tho question ns to what was
meant by the cry of "ring" you
said to Tm: AliVI?RTISKR? "Thou
art the niau," you made a charge
against us, malicious tis it was
false, andas tidally unsubstanti
ated as any charge you could have j
made. It proves moreover, that
you have received the secrets of j
this office surreptitiously, your in
timation to tho contrary notwith
standing. Th eso are tho positive
facts, proved by Mr Youngs state
ment j while your whole course, in
making an attack upon our review
of the Murray Hill, and then at
tempting to drag us into a totally
disconnected matter, between your
self and Mr Young, proves your ma
lice towards Tur. ADVKKTISKK.
You are mad. Mad, because this
pap*r did not "turn up its Iocs and
die," as you predicted it would.
While Tun AUVHRTISKR was yul
tin infant, one week old, you pub
lished un editorial which showed
your disposltion'townrds tho paper.
You showed then that you would
attempt, by any method, to break ?
dowu a paper that would dare to
break your sweet monopoly ofjour
no l':m i ft Laurens County. You
gave in that article, headed "lathe
Newspaper Business overdone,"
I tho sail fate which awaited our
venture. After decrying "patent
outsides," and jiving a pen-pic
tnre of Tin: A .iv r. KTisr.it n> it ap
peared to you, this was given as
our doom: "After a few weeks 01
"possibly months, of miscra'.ilo ex
istence, the little mongrel turns
"up its toes. It is dead.''
nt TICK AUVKRTIRER did not
die, and tho more, we dld'nt die,
tho more furious you been me.
Finding tho cry of "patent outside"
of no avail, you then made a tira
de against "plate-matter."
Your chagrin, at witnessing fal
turo stamperl upon each successive
attempt to injure the business of
this paper, was completo; and
when tho "little mongrel" which
you confidently prodietod would
turn up its t ies, dared to opposed a
bill which you, the great "Senior
P.ditor," championed in tho balls ol
legislation, arid which you attemp
ted to saddle on Lau ron.s county
through your papel, then it seems
w<*had roach, in your mind, the
very acme of impudence, Then it
is t h at innuendoes gave place toan
open charge.
You are right when you say your
zeal for the passage of ?he Murray
BUI w as slight. That was "polities."
Wo hnve al ways bel io ved your zeal
in the causo of temperance was
overestimated, and we bollevo that
lt was not so much your zeal for the
Murray BIM, ns it was a desire to
injure Tiri: ADVAKTISKR, that
prompted jon make this attack.
Your efforts in tho past have prov
od fruitless, our business hus stead
ily gTown, but whether we make or
ioso.Tnrc A nv ic UTI.SK n will contin
ue its course. Horn and hretl In
Laurens County, we are here to stay,
and weare here to speak our con
victions, "hewing to the line let
the chips fall where they may." Do
you worst; from the Herald, we
have nothing to fear.
w 11 ATWI MTBF DON i:
From tho various comments on
the plan Suggested byTirr. AUVKK
TIS Blt, relative to the conduct of
the democratic campaigns in this
stat^, lt listen that different views
! aro entertained. Whllw it is admit
ted thutthe matter is one of Imper*
i'contcnipnrarlcfe w ho think there are
any serious objections to tho plan.
It is tin: true democratic doctrino,
for it bringa tho choleo of officers
directly to ti?e people. While it is
true, as stated heretofore, no charge
ol* maladministration can bo
brough', against our present state
officers, yet it isa fact nevertheless
that they represent no fixed policy,
which it is onombent upon their, to
carry Into effect. Tho truth is, tho
issues ha ve never boon discussed.
No policy has been presented or
even (ramed. A nomination is
equivalent to nil election und for
the nomin?os of tho democratic
party to canvass South Carolina is
slicer folly. As was shown before
the last general election, the people
throughout tho state attended the
appointments to ?peak, in mere
linndfulls. Let tho Issues be dis
c US80d. For instance, take the Ag
ricultural College mutter, and let
nil such Issu OS be discussed before
the nomination of state officers,
then let the delegates to the nomi
nating convontlon be elected by
tho primary plan, and we have the
sent intent of the voters on these
issues. Now the question is, will
the various counties agitate this
question la-fore their local (dubs, su
that somthlng may ho done.

"There is a good deal of wisdom
