HAS.I/, Proprietor. LAUKKNh. s. 0H Nov. loth, 1891. Tho Kansas Alliance is truly not lu politics. How sad that Cloveland and Kussell are both Eastern Stars! Ex-president Hayes comes to South Carolina and receives no po lite attentions from Republicans, but If Cleveland should drop in on Us, tho yell of our rod shirt Demo crats would resound through the woods of Maine. If tho Yankees of North Amer ica find themselves compelled to war against the Yankees of South America there will bo a beseeching look east towards tho ex-"rebols" of tho South and no more taunts when tho confederate flag flutters and tho band plays Dixie. Tho Columbia State of yester day contained twenty-four pages and was printed on book paper in a new dress of brevier. It was a special issue devoted to Columbia but tho news columns wore full. It excelled any previous effort of tho kind ever mado in South Caro lina journalism. Have tho prohibition petitions been presented to our law makers ?tho U. S. Senator, Congressman, Stato Senator and members of the Legislature, and if so have tlioy signed them or have they not ? Tho AnviciiTisKu would like to know because tho answer to the question would bo of interest to its readers. Wo do not believe in prohibition. Tho evil of drink lies in drinking and if the law must interfere, let it first strikov at tho root and pun ish tho drinkers. But a law forbid ding a man tv, drink would bo a re striction on personal liberty peril ous iii its tendencies. 'Wo believe in high license because wo believe in taxing luxuries, especially usc loss ones, every dollar and cont thoy can stand so long as there is need of the revenue. Tho Herald attributes tho do feat of Governor Campbell In Ohio to, among other things, "his half hearted or timid adherence to the silver plank (of the Ohio democratic platform) if not abso lute antagonism to it and his utter low tariff views, bordering dangerously near or tending strongly in the direction of free trade." While the Ohio campaign was in progress Governor Tiliman ex pressed ids preference for Gover nor Campbell ns tho next Demo cratic nominee for President in lho evqnt of his defeating McKin ley. If wo accept as truo the Her ald's observation we are forced to tho agreeably disappointing con clusion that Governor Tillman's heart is with Governor Campbell against free silver and for free trade. Cotton mid Roads. There aro two important bodies now in session at Atlanta, the Cot ton Acreage, and tho interstate Jtoad Congresses. Delegations to each como from tho Southern States. Over the cotton congress vtbo IIojv--D, P. Duncan, of South c!aroTina, presides. They have dif ficult problems to solve; the adop tion of a system for making our common highways practicable by ? some economical plan; tho confin ing, of the cotton production to tlx4 rv Virdtoiary demand for consumption, jg Tho cotton problem is a delicate j? one and the most dillicult, growing out of tho fact that in tho black or ' cotton belt proper, lho growing of wheat, which' is the chief bread ntaple, is impracticable. It is prob nble that the result will be a rec ommendation to planters, farmers and alliances to stimulate and en COtl'rngo tho growing of all crops . for tho subsistence of man and beast ns far an practicable to the exclusion, of cotton. The entire hill region of the South can grow . oroals, as wheat., oats and indian et'.rn; mules, cattle, hogs and .sheep; mid making cotton a money crop, the'South would .soon bo indepen dent of the western markets, her money could ho kept at home for industrial investment, and her Wealth, population and power de veloped at an oarly day. A resolution*has been introduced iu IhVUoad Convention that prop erty und labor should contribute to j jnakfcig tho toads. Tho trend of \?>plniou Is thatconvlct labor should nil I the roads, and they will prob ably recommend to the State's legis dioit in this direction. 'There are i iy twenty clay and hill ^*o%Ues in this Stato where the T?twfes??esUon is sorlous. If the J)00coWlcfsIn the State worn dis irlbni&y&tfQr these coilnties arid a amall tj&\ lovled to support, and jjiianl then, ;,, ten yurs the loads would bo practicable, property would bo <lovt?opod and prosperity greatly Hti-iiufa^,i. This i. do into line, but wtf ^ivo not space to develop dotalfw. eky, In tho past 1 century Laurens county has spent a million doilara in tnonoy und la bor,on roads and bridges; how many permanont bridges and finely con structed miles of road* has sho In her wide borders? The answer sufllciently suggests the inenici oncy of our past and present sys tem or rather absence of system. AH manner of men and newspa pers are dilating on Ihn results of last Tuesday's elections and Inas much us political after thoughts are always interesting to the after thinker the Adykrtiser takes Its turn. In New; York, wo (i.e. drover Cleveland, Flower, the babies and tho rest of us) beat tho Republi cans to the lively nir of fortv odd thousand. There was no frco .sil ver in it but tariff reform was the gist of tho matter,?backed by Tammany and innumerable Irish men. Tho Republicans carried Ohio because there are moro Re publicans in that State than Democrats; moro born, reared and wrapt in the gloom of that evil and erring faith. Then thoro was a pile of money spent by the protec tionists for McKinley. ''Every man has his price" and tho f/enus homo may not come very high" in Ohio. Tho Democratic managers could not, from dire necessity, '?bull" tho market as did their friends, tho atlluent enemy. And the Democratic platform leant heavily to free silver. Tho re-eloclion of Boies in Iowa and Russell in Massachusetts we tak? to be a sign of the good time coming and a symptom that hu manity i> learning sense. Low ta riff seems to be tho cue and in Mas sachusetts tho result was a slam on frco silver. Wo don't remember whether or not tho Iowa Demo crats had anything to say at all on tho coinage question. in Pennsylvania tliero is a great Republican tar baby to which most other babies stick themselves re ligiously as soon as they aro born. This tar baby with its protection skeleton accounts for the nasty slate of things in Pennsylvania. Colorado was invented by the G. O. P. and the patent has evidently not expired. The only reason why Maryland Virginia ami Mississippi went Democratic was because there was no other decent way to go. To sum up: Tariff reform and free silver lost in Republican Ohio; tariff reform without free silver won in doubtful New York and Republican Massachusetts. The plain lesson is that tariff re form will win anywhere if left to go it alone, unhampered and un hindered. ,Catarrh Is a constitutional und not n. local disease, and therefore it caieu t ho < nr< ct by local ap plications.
