Ordinary A?.'. vortlioments, per square,' Otu? iuaor tlotl, $1.00: facti subsequent uuscr tton, 00 cents. Liberal roduotlon made tor large AU? yort Isetnents. Llko u v?ritable in ail tn un tho He rald has boon beating tho wind, ami , stumbling around in darkness, with Us mind tilled with groundless sus picions, hoping to lind some substi- . tut? for argument, Having been shown by unmistulcuMo evidence j thc purpose of ?ts editor in attemp? j ting to pass the Murray Hill, andi having nu argument, which it dared pot up against the charge, il uncor imoniously leaves the subject which brought it out. with the strange intimation that its /.md tor that measure was slight anvwny. Hui tiie want of argument and a ' failure to comprehend its own pet Tlill, did not slop the mouth of this : madman, lie jumps on to a coi trovorsy with another man which j took place a year ago, and attempts ; to prove a gross absurdity. Fail- j lng to show that we bari any con nection with ''Tote Fair," more flinn act as his publtshor, bc hopes to boat us by sheer exhaust ion. : >.?. dlnarlly when a man so completely ignores the subjoct of a controversy, lt is taken ns a signal to stu]), andi wc would not be dragged on to ir relevant matter ; but, in fbi- case we propose to follow tb" Herald I wherever it may lead, so we will take up its latest editorial and as briefly as possible show what it contains. First of all he says, we have ig nored all decency rio! assumer! the role of bully. Then wo have an apology, couched in these words: "We regret the necessity of saying | this, not on bis account, hut OM ac- j count, of others connected with him ! by ties consanguinity." The state ment as to our "ignoring all decen cy," ls so wide of the truth, (hut it would seem an apology is not out ot place, but really, we do ic it sup pose a bald statement from such a source will offend any person con nected to us by "ties of consangui nity," (Ju fbe other hand, what must be tho feolings of those w ho are connected with Mr'!'. B.Crews, "by tics of consanguinity," when I they seo tho positive proof, not as sertions, but plain facts willoh show conclusively that the said T. ll. Crew?, who is related to thom as aforesaid, has made a wanton at tack upon THIS ADVKKTISEU be cause the aforesaid newspaper ex pressed its views on a proposed law | for the county of Laurens. What w ill they think when they see how their dear relative bas jumped tb.? j track and made a charge which be failed to provo? What, o what: I will they think, when they see a statement from tho editor of the! Herald, w hich, bad it been SWOl n to In Court, would have boen perju ry, This statemenl we propose to hold up once moro to (he public gaze. On September I'!, i-vsT, in speak- ! i ng of the information as to tho' handwriting of ono of "Tote Fair's" articles the Herald says: "We bc- ? lit ved the article was In his four) handwriting." In the same connection we find this language "Mr Lockwood did not betray tho secret." j Now Mr Lockwood may or may not have told Mr Crews that Mr Young was not tho author of the ! article. .We tried very hard lo keep this Information from Mri Lockwood; ho says he did nol ob-, tain it. He did know however, that one of the articles, was In our j handwriting, and except Mr Young and myself, ho was tho only i orson who di I know it. Then how comes it that Mr Crews believed it when be asked to see the man usc ri pl. The only reasonable solution to j this quest lon ls thal his belief was founded up-MI what Mr Lockwood btu! told,and thal when (be Herald sayslh.tt "Mr Lockwood did nol betray the Secret," it states what it knows to be false. Hut the Herald says the information was obtained from our looks,-"signs of ember* rnsmont." That ls too (hin, for it i* only charged thal wo looked "em barrassed" when "asked to show the copy," and nave as an?xense for . ?asking io see the copy, (hat tho od- ' jtor of the Herald ,lbclieved it was j not in thc handwriting of the nu-I fhor". We submit that no unpre- I Judiced roader can resist the con o] psi on thal Mr Crews is convicted beyond the shadow of doubt, of' stooping tri the vile method of re? .reiving information stirrcptitousjy -through a punter employed af that time in ibis office. In a card in tho Herald last week Mr Lockwood makes an effort to (dear himself, but unfortunately, neglects to deny the very arl charged, namely; thal he intima (ed to Mr Crews that the copy used \<y him wsfl in my handwriting, c?) nnot deny, but he duos say "aa to I his (our) charge of voluntarily be traying confidence, I pronounce this unequivocally Pulso lu every . particular.^ 1 tullun ours.) Now murk that word "voluntari ly." Sluco no person could have known that one ol' the articles was copied by us, so as to ttl vu this In? ; Permution which Mr Crews admits j he believed, coxeupt Mr Lockwood j und nshe denies betraying tho se cret voluntarily, then it is evdient ' that Mr C. is guilty of more than we charged. Ile not only used tho vile method of learning tho secrets . of this (illico by receiving those se crets from un employee, but he ls ; shown to have fought the informa t lon. Mow will those who aie connue-j teil with Mr T. H. Crews "by ties' of consanguinity" feel, when they seo that one who holds the high position ot* County Senator, has stooped lo tho viii- ?nd underhan- ! ded act of pickin? (rom Mr Lock wood that which, although iinma terial, ho had no righi to tell. liCt us look at thc second count ; ia the last Indictment, which char- ' go.-? thal Mr-Young spoke only of the articles signed "Tute Pair." If! there has over been ? dispute us to ? tho authorship ol articles signed otherwise than 'Tote Fair, ii has escaped our notice, lt was eh arg ed that one of the articles signed "Tote Fair" was in our hand w riling,. a fact we have tuner denied, undi when that is explained, then the Herald ls mad becauso Mr Young did not swear to two other articles, to which ho signed his name. [f these articles were not Mr Youngs, thou somebody forged his name, fer il was distinctly signed. \\\- arc thou given Q long disqui sition showing that tin* affidavit was not properly drawn. No doubt Mr ("rews thinks it drawn ! Improperly,for i? places him in an miserable plight. Perhaps he can . draw affidavits better than he can I frame laws. Wc suggest that lo w-rite a woik "ii the mode of draw- . lng affidavit*. Jusl thinkof il! This affidavit Ls defectivo because it did not state specifically that Mr Young was the author of articles i which w< i i- published with lils j name to them! Yet, thu Herald j g ?es so far as lo say Mr Young has I never claimed to bethe author of those articles thus published. This ttffida\ it states that Mr Young, amino; a "ring," wrote the "Toto! Fair" articles, uud ?til of them, lt did not state many tilings; for In stance, it did not stato Mr Young's ' age, for thc very plain reason that hts ago was not In controversy. We are given an array of "deli cate points" aa tho Herald is plea ed to term them, whleb aro real ly so delicate, ono can scarcely per- : c.-ive the point. One is thal we in Umated that Mr Young was not 1 tho author of "Toto Fair." This j timation we have branded false, | and reiteration of a falsehood ca* j never make it otherwise than false. With a grand flourish, Hie Herald exults over tho fuel C.at it has proved thal one of thc articles of Mr Ti. II. Young was in our hand writing, a fact, nowhere controvert ed by THE ADVERTISER. Weclaim that our only connection with the articles was that of publisher, and wi> did nothing nu re (han perform ot] duty as publisher, Mr Yeing swears that wc did not change thc substance of his article and because forsooth ho is unwilling to swear that we did no! chango a word or doss fi . (,'' the Herald says that is an admission that wc were ono of a "ring." Mr Crews has found an ..il"' io quibble over. Nov.*, when he says thal that "if" is an admission I lint the article was changed he bas a very strang system ol reasoning. "If" admits uothing. lt was plac ed In Mr Young's affidavit because be could liol swear positively that the copy made by ino was exact in 1 ..-very little particular. While ho COUld not swear that every word was identical, yet ho did swear that the substance was not changed. Again because no ono was present when I made tho copy, ergo, ; nm : "behind the curtain and one of (he ; ring." Doc? (he Herald suppose that when I mn making a copy of an art ide in order to koop the nano* of thc author a secret, (hat 1 am going to invite the public in to wit- j ness the transaction. That ls un doubtedly tho weake.-t reasoning 11 have ever hoard. Yet, because no- ; body but Mr Young saw me copy ? tho article, it is "ringism." 'That Ht t lo word "ring" did you good service in the last prima ry election, but good horses have boen ridden to death. Your cry of "wolf," has given you an office, but when you now talk abeufrings" ; sonic people know your object. OUR coi vi v PAIR. AH will be seen in this issue, a : call is rondo for a meeting off be Kxecutivo Committee of thc Lau rens County Agricultural Society, to make, arrangements foreur an nual Fair. From lime to time this bas been brought before tho people as a muller of importance for which THE A I> VKKTISKK uar tm apology. Too m ucl) can never be dono for auch an organization, ?uni it is n matter thal should he constantly brought to mind. What tho Society needs moro than anything dsn, is a determined ami united effort on the part of ali citizens of Laurens County, to feel a personal pride in making the exhibitions successful. Oui people, and more especially, -citizens ot* this town are altogether too Indiff?rent about tho mutter. Purely from a business standpoint, aside from tho value of a l'air in encouraging and stimulating tho pursuit of agriculture at cl in eleva ting it to tin- high pla??? which it should occupy, this annual gather ing of farmers at.d ihelr friends tends lo bring the people-the pro ducer" and* co! 6UII10I8-dos? r to gether.iud made to realize that their rights are reciprocal, and their Intercala identical,-all de pendant upon a healthy --tafe of ag? rioulluro. In view id" these facts, and lim importun?e of Ute matter, lt is Hmo for the popple as well as tho Executive Committee to bestir themselves and ^ork for the suc cess ?d' the Pair. Lot the matter be discussed] let the business menace itsimportaucc as affecting them, in encouraging people to come here j let the com mittees bo Selected carefully arid united effort we can make ibis, the grandest exhibition ever given itt 1 laurens. So moto it bel Only a few years ago the Repub lican newspapers everywhere insis ted that the ride of Democracy would bring financial ruin. They 'maintained thal Ibo Republican party was tim prop Unit supported our commerce ami especially our infant industries. Putin this year nf our Lord 1887, when from the Pa cifie to the Atlantic, comes Mic ro port of un?irocedented prosperity industrially and financially, with the government in the hands of Domncrals, we are told that the Ad ministr lion bas nothing to do w iib. it. Now when the people eau once see the practical work of a low tar ritt, limited to tho necessities of thc government-, and thc surplus in tim treasury judiciously expended, they can also soo tho fallacy of tho Re publican idea that our Industries will not bear a reduction of the presont protective [so culled) tariff. Ol U WASH INC ION [?TTER. [Special to The Advertiser.] Washington, Sept, ??Lh, 1887 Tho State Department was without, an ollVcial bead a short time this week.-Secretary BH.\ ar i having boon absent and Assistant Secretary P.-nor having resign ii rather precipitately and returned tc. Ids borne in Tennessee. lt is whispered among tin? official gos sips that tho resignation id' tito Rx Oovernor isdtie to n serious disa greement with .Mr. Payurd over the controversy of the disputed fisheries question. At least there was tm formal farowoll bot ween these distinguished gentlemen, BH Mr Porter left before the return of the Secretary from Massachusetts, whither bc liad gono from Philadel phia. It is the opinion of many that tin? New Rngland trip was for the purposo of consulting with w ell postetl Democrats in that soction with tho views i f securing tho ser vi vs of suitable men who will act for our Government in tho settle ? ment of the fisheries trouble with tho Canadian authorities. Tho pol icy of'our state Department seems ; to be to brine this troublesome pro 1 hiern to a speedy and satisfactory 1 solution. In regard (.> tho pur , chase of boud9 hy tho Uovernmoni, tho President only oxprosscs the ] opinion that tho press criticism upon tho Treasury Dcpartmont in declining to accept any of the of fers of bonds last week, ls incon siderate, and tho t Keeulivo goes ; on his forceful and 'IgoroUS style ; to warmly defend tho financial me thods Of Secretary Fairchild, which of course, have been adopted with his own sanction.

On tho con trary, Secretary Fairchild, hoing questioned about tho subject, by one of hin fair "countesses," w ho felt a decidedly personal intorepf in the matter, informed ber that there was no ruling against sibdi u practice by tho present Adminis tration, and be advised her to go ahead and "fool tboir salaries." The periodical scandal bas again c ?mi to tim surface-this timo in the p?>st office Department,-tin- per sons concornott being a Republican chief of a division, w ho bun boi n left undisturbed In a good place, and ono of his young lady clerk.'.
