Tho hondlino above tho latest
. "..sion of tho Herald is, "A Strug
r .g Kflbrt," und tho article itself
li .us tho bonding to bo appro
priate First, he remarks: "False !
encl groundless assortions provo
nothing, ?uve depravity and desper
ation on tho pert of ho who makes
it." To this wo give a hearty,
A'v.en! When tho Herald asserts
?hut Tl?K ADVERTISER is one of a
lg" or that tho Kditor of this
?er, either instigated, aided or
; > ?ttod tho author of "Toto Fair," j
this assertion is shown by the?
. [ghost evidence possible, (u sworn
scntcmont from tho author himself)
t ; he "false and groundless," and it
I OWS, to USO the reasoning ?.f the
tld, tlie assertion proves only
pravity and <1 isporatlon on the !
-. t of ho who makes it," und, quo- j
. ig further, wo say it "is the usual
.-ort of thc defeated and vun
qtli bed."
jL/efeated and vnnquishod" by
tho sudden bursting <<f a fine polit
ical bubble, upon which the "only
.Senior" bad slaked his political
fortune, la- takes vongoucc in at
tempting to crush ont the news
ier which dared to say that
' ne spirit wilie! .rom pt ed a certain
law was not p ai worthy. Because,
in the oxer- iso of what wo con
ceived t ; o the duty of an editor
-peak out on publie questions
ii di come to Hie people for rati
st ion; because wo dared to op
p so a mensuro which the great
S. aator trom Laurens had been in
strumental in passing-it is con
strued into a personal attack upon
the Kditor of tho Herald.
Hut the question is asked, "what
right had Tm: A nv i* UT ts Kit to im
pugn 'the spirit which prompted
it.'" We answer the same right
we havo to discuss any political
question. We claim the right as a
man, a citizen, a newspaper, to dis
iss the nets of any public servant,
un tho humblest to the highest
.nd not only their acts, but tho j
"spirit which prompted thom."
This right wo will continue to exor
cise whenever, in our judgment,
occasion requires.
The Herald then objects to our
statement that the Murray Hill was
a "political maneuver,' and nsks
the question ; "why was the eic dion
.ranged to take place in an off
year as was purposely done?"
Hinco you ask, we venture to ans
wer; in our opinion, it wa- so ar
ranged ns to allow polit ians to
plan their campaign speeches one
year in advance In other word-1,
to allow such men as T. H. Crews,
to ascertain which aldo of tho fence
is conducive to their personal pop
ularity. And from the intimation
of tho salo T. H. Crews, since tb*'
little off-year weather vane has
pointed, methinks, he can be seen
trying to crawl around on the other
side of tho fence rapidly, when he
says bis "/.cal was slight for that
measure (Murray Hill) anyway." m
Tho main portion of this ".Strug
gling Effort" of tho Herald, Is a re
hash of the'Toto Fair" matter. In
regard to this we have but few
words more Wc are as innocent
of the charge of aiding ar abetting
Mr. Voung in the "Tote Fair" arti
cles, as .a man can be. While we
eau see no Impropriety in aiding or
abiding or ev( tl Writing the articles
if we had chose; still the plain and
rimple truth is we did ?tot do l ither.
Mr. Voting came to me with the
with the first arti.-ie, while I was fit
homo sick,?md I promised t.. pub
lish it. Ho slated he did not wish
L.rr. Leek woori to see the manu
script, ?o 1 ' irl my brother to j ut
the art! do in type. When be
brougl I the eeeond arl cb? be ro
peafed his dcslro concerning Mr.
Lockwood and as my brother could
not set the article in type, asked
nie to make a copy for Mr. Lock
wood. lt is my custom to make
verbal correction of all manuscript
published in this paper when re
quested to do so, and while I can
not say that I made any correction
or chango OOO word of Mr. Voting's
nrtkdo, I am absolutely certain that
I did not make any chango that
would niter the meaning, What
ever chongo, either spelling, pano
li arion, or otherwise, ?J any change
was made, wes exactly what I
oujd havo done for any other coi:
! ii utor to THK ADVERTISER who
had mndO n similar request. As
publisher ? conceive it my duly to
guard tho secret as to the author of
the article. To do this, and for no
other purpose, I acceded to the re
quest of Mr. Young.
As to tho third und fourth arti
cles, signed "H. H. Youxo," I did
aol iou? b them. These ^t?J?M,
J
facts In tho caso, to which tho Edi
or of this paper will make oatlj In
any tribunnlon cnrth or elsewhere.
Hut before wo leave the .'Tote
Fair" matter, let us seo about thc
statement which we have mudo
ubout "obtaining information sur
rcptltously." Tho Herald says wo
have "tried to make n senpe-gout of
Mr. Lockwood." It must bo, ro
me m bored that not ono word was
auld concerning Mr. L. until Ito was
brought in by Mr. ( 'rews himself.
Since ho is brought in by tho man
who is makin.; this attack, wo pro
pose to uso him. Says the Herald,
"why suppress tho roui name of tho
author of 'Tote Fair'?" As wc
have limo and nguiu stated, tho
reason was that tito real author did
not wish his name made public nu
til ho close to teil it, and ho be
lieved Hi tl Mr. 1?. would run around
to thc Herald as soon as he obtained
tho information. This is the reason
WC did not invite Mr. L, and the
bnlnnco of mankind to witness the
copying of the article. Wo wore
behind no "lock-? and bars" at the
IlerabT says, but in tho editorial
room of TUB ADVEKVISKB. When
tho copy was m.ole, I carried it to
the printer who put it in type, after
which it was returned to? mo. So
that, tho fact that I copied it, was
known only io Mr. Young, Mr.
Lockwood and my sol f, and yet in a
io v.* days, Mr. T, H. frews came to
tue and stated that he believed the
copy was not in tho httudwrititing
of Mr. Young. The question we
asked lust week, and which has,
been repeatedly (lodged, is this:
Upon what was that belief
founded? You can see at a fiance
the only answer you have tried to
prive, as to our' looks," wont do, for
it boars falsehood on its face. You
could not have obtained tho infor
mation from our "scared" appen
ance, for you say we looked"scarcd"
when you asked to soe the manu
script, and you say you asked to
soe manuscript, because you be
licved it was not in tho handwri
ting of the author. Now, if you
have one spark of manhood left,
como out and acknowledge that
you resorted to the vila method of
"picking" Mr Lockwood, and all
you could "pick" was that tho copy
ho used was bi my handwriting?
It may be that the estimate of M r
Crews is correct,-wo may be a
monkey with? tail; but Cod forbid
that oven as a tailed monkey, we
should ever stoop to such a depth
as to "pick" an empl >yoe, and thou
toll an absolute falsehood about it.
Mr Crews says, "Mr Lockwood
dbl not betray tho secret." Murk
you he did nol say that ho did not
tell him, ht t by what ho did say
Mr C. evidently intended to make
tho Impression, that so far aa lu
knew, Mr L. did n I toll anyone.
Wo beliovo this stateim ' tobo ab
solutely and unequivocally luise;
that Mr Crows Av?ete, ot had reason
to believe that Mr Lockwood did
"betray tho secret," and (hat be did
not get it from our "embarrassed
appearance."
To settle thc matter, wo submit
ted on Monday last, tho following
statement for his signature:
'.I do solemnly swear, that, iMfar sa I
havoicanon lo bollovo, Mr 1*. H. Lock
wood did not toll anyone that the copy
ll sod by him as compositor in tho Ai>
VKiiTisnn olllco signori "Tote Fair" was
in y.r darlington s handwriting, or not
in tho hand writing of tho author.
This statement Mr ( 'rews respect
fully declined lo sign! J f, when
he said "Mr Lock wood did not be
tray tho secret," ho had told the
truth, why could ho no* sign Ibis
statement? If be hud spoken the
truth when he said he received the
information from our "appenranco*
wby (lld he refuse to sij;n this state
ment'.' Mr Crews is willing to say
in bis paper ?hat which be is Uliwil
liig to.swear i... Wo loavo the pub
lic to draw what conclusion they
may but wc behove hat the belief
of tho Herald V MS rounded upon
what Lockwood to'd (either to bim
or someone who told bim,) and
tho Herald has failed to east so
much us a shadow of a doubt In
our mind, on the subject.
THR PLAN 0PPO8RD.
Ho far ns we hnvo noticed, only
one paper in this State bas opposed
the plan of having a canvass pre
liminary to tho meeting of the
Democratic Nominating Conven
tion That papor is tho Herald <f
Nows, ofWInnsboro, This artielo
we publish elsewhero in this issn?*.
It seems that Hie objection of our
con tom poi ary lu summod up in
this sontonoo :
"Bvery campaign brings with lt
Ma noodlOiS amount of time, expon*
"and labor, together with an amount
"ol excitement which well-nigh
"paralyzes business."
Ono of the striking poeuliartlos
of our government, and that which
stamps the United States, prooinl
nontly superb*, to nil other forms,
ls Hint our policy,-our laws, come
directly from tho people This Is
tho comer-stoii" of democracy and
any departure from this fundamen
tal idea, is a departure from the
established principles Which inspir
ed thos*i who founded this lt-.pub
lic, in viewing tho political course
of South Carolina during tho post I
decade, a suggestion of the great
; father of Democracy,. Themas Jef
! Ferson, In tx lotter to Madison is
shown to be fort I nient In this day.
"Tho instability of our law.-," said
he, "is a matter of great Inconven
ience." II?' then suggests that
j every bill should bo discussed be
i fore the people for ono your prov!?
j ons io its passage, and then passed
: oy a two-thirds voto of both bran
j ches of thc legislature. Tlierc can
j bo n<> doubt but that the crying
: evil ol our day, in legislation, ls tho
mutability of our law?. To obvi
ate this, in a measure, is tho chief
i object of a preliminary canvass.
: is true tho issues aro discussed in
tho counties, but whilo Spartan
burg ls electing her representatives
to the legislature on tho exemption
or non-exemption of factories from
* i
taxation, Creonvillo is chosingher
men because they approve a certain
railroad tax, and Lau rons is mak
ing a prohibition light, whilo pro
bably Nowborry is discussing the
ngri n Kural Collego,aiul it may bo
that Abbeville is lighting the Snath
Carolin?-College. So, as a result,
it is impossible to outline thc sig
niflear.ee ol any election so far as
tho state ii concerned, ami In con
sequence tho legislators go tt) Co
lumbia, each lighting for their Im
mediate constituents, nial because
forsooth what one county demands
another county rejects, then local
legislation is resorted to.
AV riv NOT?
From tho present oullo k a pro
phet of gnaiter note than Wiggln:
might risk bis reputation on the
statement that in the course of
time cotton will bo planted lor the
seed. A few days; ago, cotton seed
at Memphis Tenn, sold at $10. ?U
per ton. At this ?price the seed
from Ibo average bale of cotton
would bring $9. 75.
Such figures will tempt many a
fortner to sell himself out of seed.
If however it would cut bis aerea,;' 1
f>>r tho next crop short, it would
probably he a blessing.
This advance in the price of cot
ton Peed, suggests a MI bj oct we have
touched before. Why could nota
few of our enterprising bus!noss
men establish a cotton seod oil
mill at this pince? Thc machinery
is not expensive, amt inasmuch us
tho seed is annually shipped to
other places, why should tito oil not
be extracted al home and tho fer
tilizing propertios loft with tho
producers.
The light Of tho Dally Sun is bo
j ginning to shine in all Its splendor
on tho''City liv the Sen." Tho Still
lia1? acted wisely in trying to get ut
tho underlying cause of tho loss of
trude to Charleston, und in doing
dis, has ofcoursc, offended some
citizens,-those who prefer to shill
out tho light, so that they may con
tinu?e in thc belief that tito city
limits of Charleston mensuro the
inhabit.ililc portion of tin? globe.
This age oifers little encourage
ment to those business mon whose
idea-, wero moulded of pig-iron a
century ugo. it is well to remem
ber and review tho Charleston of
long ago, hut tho present and es
pecially the future i-t of greater
importa, ce. When circumstances
force young men to scv-k other
Held-;, it is evidence enough that
something ls wrong, and it is the
part of wisdom to seek tho cause,
ami tue remedy.
No paper roachos this o fil co, tba*
ls road with greater Interest than
tho Columbia Register. It ls an
ob'y editor and well ct llductod
newspaper. Tho editorials are
sound to tho coro, independent and
honed.
