Liberal roductlon made for largo Ad vertisoments. W. W. BALL, Proprietor. LAUBENH, H. O, April Mill, 1891. Will the city council invite the Stalo Press Association lo meet In Laurens next year? Wo shall have the "crush of worlds," when Chicago "puts her best foot forward" in '93. Whether Uncle Sam should In demntfy or war with Italy, the latter would in either event be "Boot-licked." Is tho poll to, handsome, and hairy financial agent of the organ grinder to be regarded as. an Italian citizen? The Italian Imigran! who Game over four centuries ago and whom we expect to celebrate in Chicago has not been accused of member ship In tho Mafia. Tho employment of learned coun sel to assist the Attorney General in the prosecution of bis public du ties Is the best possible evidenco that the Tlllman Administration -has an eye to economy. Tho "World" has come to be a third rato planet In the Tlllman system. In the meantine, the Isows and Courier continues to bo edited by the man in the moon, or some other placid individual equa distantly observant of South Caro lina politics. .Laurens ought to have a frolic this summer. A picnic, centen nial, exposition, or fishing party would be delightful in July and now that Barnum has about plny od out wo could get up the "great est show on earth." Laurens cer tainly should appear in dress pa rade occasionally. Mr. Edmunds has resigned bis office as Senator from Vermont to take effect in November. He has been a bitter partisan, very able, presumably honest, and except in the matter of robbing Tilden of tho Presidency, has been like King Duncan, square in his great offico. It is a sort of political common law maxim that a Senator to not in the line of promotion to the Presi dency. The stop now taken takes the Senator from the staff and puts him in the Bepublican rank and file for 1892. Grover Cleveland a stalwart of another stamp, stalks In tho way. "Tho Condition that Con fronts Us." Tho life of the Democracy is in its low tariff principles. On that issue the country sustained it last November. The battle has boon fought and won and it only re mains for the party to hold to gothor and tako possession of the fruits of tho conquest when the next election offers to the Repub licans an opportunity to capitulate South, West, East, and North, dem ocrats are together on this one question and if they'remaln so eigh teen months longer, their national ascendancy is a foregono conclu sion. On the sil vor question, democrats of the West and South do not agree with those of the East and North. If free sliver be made the policy, then the independent, mugwump, element of New York and New England will certainly be estrang ed. If on the other If?nd, tho party 1$ takes ground against free silver, the West will bo offended in the same degree. To grasp either horn of ^-Jtho dilemma will "be to clip the foathers of one of tho wings. It Is tho part of wisdom to let the dil emma alone, and to do otherwise would be the height of folly. What over front as to silver the Repub lican party might show, it would be! none the less worthy of political annihilation on account of its high tariff system of robbery. It is for uh to ignore silver, and let the money question settle Itself hereafter. It is Impossible to pre dict with anything liko accuracy the effect of important changes in our financial system but a baby can undoretand that a protective tariff is unfair and dishonest. A fight against McKlnloyism alone could not but win, and the demo cratic party must put in the flold for '02 a champion who leprosents the strongest antagonism to it. God, Hau;?lein ami III?

No other envestment in the world is so absolutely safe, or con sidering the protection, more pro fitable than a life or endowment policy in The Mutual Lile Insur ance Company of New York, for the following reasons : ist. The contrect is based upon a natural and universally operating law of mortality, backed by the good faith and continued payments of the largest number (182,013111 1889) of carefully selected lives insured in any company on the re serve fund system. 2nd.
