BALL, Proprietor. LAUKENS, S. C, June 1, 1807. Ho Blunders. Mchaurin is a .smart follow "uftor tho order" of tho day, smart as that word is used commonly. Wo aro not quarrelling with his appointmont. lie has written ?.; very short lottor to CJov. Ellorbo accepting tho honor and in It makes four points: 1st. Ho accepts with thanks. 2d. Ho will do his host to represent all the people. .'Id. Ho wants a primary this fall to elect a Senator. 4th. Ho favors election of United States Senators "by a vote of tho poo plo," but ho is careful not to say by a direct vote of tho people, aud wo are loft to guess at his views. We prcsumo howovor that he means a direct voto of tho people. This would not bo De mocracy according to Jefferson and Madison, nor according to Calhoun, Jackson or others of tho fathers. Tho suggestion in the days of MoDullio or Harper of this State, would havo con gested tho mass from Caesar's Head to tho Battery. It is not irr sympathy with tho theory of this or auy repub lic. It is of tho wooly West, out of the whole cloth, and may be all right. Wo do not combat'the idea by any means. It is a matter of debate. We, of tho South, who call ourselves democrats have battlod hard and lost a million men, and the accumulated earnings of two hundred years of labor combating the Idoa of being governed by, aud trampled under tho hoel of a majority. It may bo the right idoa aud wo aro open to conviction. Tho theory of tho majority of a town, county or State, may work well, but the majority rule, as of this nation, which works the laws of trusts, monopolies, plutocracy, corruption and forco, works tryanny In our view. Wo shall see. Thorc was onco an idea and we modestly suggest It, that Senators represented States and tho fathers established tho con stitution under that idoa and tho Demo cratic party a'ono of all parties have insisted upon that theory of our gov ernment. Hut we are old fashioned. Other Pharoahs rule In Egypt. It may bo that the world is so much bottor, men are so far advanced, that tho safety conserved by a six year torm in tho Senate aud election by the Leg islature is dangerously In tho tooth of tho socialistic trend of tho time. It may bo so. And if so, tho Sonato Should be abolished, as a usoless ex pense and absurdity. Whero is tho I uso of a duplicate representation of the people? If the idea of tho fathers ' that a sobor body, elected for six years, by the people's representatives, independent of the passions of the "maddening crowd," as a cheek upon rabid and wild and passionate legisla tion is a wild idea, then a single legis lative body, direct from tho people should be the government. A Senate of Lords is a more elegant luxury like the Lords in Britain. Hut this talk of ours is for consideration ; wo arc old fashioned and may havo misconceived Jefferson, Mad (son, Monroe and < lalhoun Wo want light) and so do our readers . Wo do not believe that this Govern ment is a nationality. We think tho States aro .States, and that the propo sition to elect Senators by the people may prove a dangerous experiment. A primary by the Democratic party is all right, but there let there bo a halt. If we aro to become national re publicans, th ;n the proposition to elect Senators by a direct voto of tho people is a long step in that direction. Even Senator Tillman in denouncing the U. S. Courts and .Judges, plumos himself on his urgency of the sovereignty of a State, and its exemption from suit as individuals and ordinary corporations. But A d want our people to think. State Pr, ss Association. This body of accomplished Caro linians held their annual sosslon at tho graceful town of Nowborry during last week. They aro a patriotlo and en lightened gang. Ex-Senator Walsh, Editor of the Augusta Chroniclo de livered tho annual address. His com pliments to Daweon, ox-Editor of tho Nows and Courier, vvro loudly ap plaudod by tho Nowbeivy audlonce; his allusions to Hampton as tho groast est citizen tho State has had, whs warmly applauded by tho spoctators. It is not to bo oxpected that every body will romomb?r in Wado Hampton tho man who opposod secession, thon when his Stato seceded mado the great est sacrifices, in tho onsuing struggle performed scrvicos shoddlng lustre up on tho citi/onship of tho State and sig nalizing the patriotism of tho South; few will remombor with what patlenco - and wisdom ho boro himself in 187(1-77 redeeming his peoplo and Stato against odds unexampled in tho annuals of this country. Hut thero aro hero and there noble mon and women who will approolato the daring of tho Goorgian who ventured to praiso Hampton, tho groat citizen and soldlor, in South Carolina and did not forgot Dawson,who as a young talontod Englishman, camo . to the South,joinod Eitz Lefl and fought It out with us. We thank Walsh, the Georgian, for hi? kind words for Fran W. Dawson and Wado Hampton. * * ? Senator McLaurln, undor his ap pointment, will servo until tbo 2d Tuesday In January 1808, when the General Assembly moots and will olect tho successor for tho romainder of Judgo Kurie'., torm- -five years from tho 4th of March 1808. It Is now conceded that thero will be a State primary after (bo crops are laid by in which a big crop of candidates will likewise be similarly disposed of. * a * It was not many moons past that The Advbrti&kr wanted to know who wpuld Investigate the Investigators. Our Junior Senator. The advertiser aaid o>i Tuesday morning last: "It looks llko McLau rin" and by Wednesday morning It was McLaurin* Gov. Ellerbo did well to ond tho agony by disposing ol tho spoils at once. It Is only loft for us to diagnose what wo havo got. McLaurin has boon Attorney Gen eral of the State, is a member of tho present Houso of Representatives, has stood well in with the Reform move ment, > tends well in with the Republi can booses at Washington, hold a place on a prominent committoo by tho fa voritism of Zar Heed and all in all Is a wary, alert and tricksy politician. Ho o young, and comes from Marlboro on our eastern 6horo. Probably ho has as much ability as any man of his fac tion lu tho State. We should say that his political code Is accommodating.all things to all men and conditions. Wo should have a hard tiino to place him ? probably among the populists is his natural location, among the socialists, if they had a local habitation. It is understood that ho favored government store housos and money and scrip to is sue by tho government as a national eurroncy. This was, as wo understand, Iiis panacea for tho ills tho country has BulTorod by reason of stringency aud scarcity of monoy. It is said that he favors government ownership of rail roads and telegraphs and othor popu lar Issues and nostrums that but a short ti.no ago had their day. Now. these aro ?'demands" that havo never been accepted into any code, however Napoleonic, recognized by the Demo cratic party socalled. JofTerson is oro dttod with tho authorship of tho well known Virginia Resolutions, and to those and the letters of Madison in the collection under tho titlo Federal ist, tho old tlmo democrat is apt to look when ho hunts up a notion of de mocracy. Sometimes Jackson is named and his Stato papers aud administra tion papers and measures as a deposit of democratic doctrlno, but we apolo gize for naming him, for if there bo a name in American annals that ought to sicken tho Carolina gentle men who so tlippantly appoal to tho great C'alhoun, It is Jackson.? Hut as things now go, as the fashion is with tho present day political saints: "I am a Democrat'' or a "Joffersoninn Democrat," Is enough to sanctify. Wo will havo to wait for fruits to judge tho tree. We aro not quarreling with Gov. Ellorbo's seloction?no doubt he did as well as he could, or could be expected to do. In tho mean while) wo can expect littlo from any of our great men?any come to lead tho people out of tho widlernoss?any ap pointed, oleetetl, or self stylod Moses. Govornmont that does tho least harm does tho most good. What we waut In tho Sonate on tho part of our repre sentatives is a hard tight against the coming new edition of the McKinley Tariff. Wo havo to truBt and abide Tillman and McLaurin aud make the most of them. It will do no good to distrust them at the outset. The Columbia Militia was inspected, and paraded, at Columbia, on Friday evening last on the grounds of the South Carolina College. 'I be College boys at the same time were playing ball. The grounds about that great city being circiunsei ibed, there was not room, a collision resulted and a dirty riot. Casualties: One of the college boys, MeColl, scull crushed; Professor Means Davis, head laid open to the scull for an inch and a half; one policeman, bead bruised, dressed by city physician, and is out but not oil duty: Maj. B. B, Evan's horse, (of Adg't Gen. John Gary Watts' stall ) hit with a spent base ball. We are reluctant to comment. With out an investigation, the blame will be bard to saddle. And with an investi gation it will be harder. We shrewdly suspect that the affair was consequent upon the spirit of vulgar official impor tance now prevalent in South Carolina. 11 is suggested as usual by the linso tiphiseated, or sophisticated innocent, that there be an investigation to locate the blame. We advise against it. Rotll sides of the case will be proven. Never mind the little matter of murder. a # ?? The News and Courier discussing Senator Tlllman's statement, (In which he turns "State's Evldonco") in tho matter of ex-Governor Evans' use of liquors, shows how Senator Till man violatod the Dispensary law in three Important instances. As for in stance. (1) keoping in his houso liquors to bo given away and (2) keoping un tagged and untested spirits In his house. (Thus tho hoalth and possibly tho life of a groat National Function ary, a Stato Senator, was jeopardized). Again says tho News and Courier: "Wo havo always wondorod why Sena* ator Tillman has said that ho wished "nothing olso on his tombstone than "that ho was tho author of tho Dispen sary Law." Was ho afraid of hla bold violiation of tho Disponsary Law be ing added to this Inscription? Out, out, contomporary; out; tho li quors cost nothing. V Senator Tillman used his pitchfork last week. He wants to see what Sen ators are speculating In sugar trust stocks, Our senior Senator is able bodied, and able-minded, but (he giants on Olympus had a poor show against Juhiter and Vulcan's thunder* bolts. 1'itchforks are poor weapons against "almighty dollars." Rut Till man is at last on the right scent. *#* The well diggers in Abbeville have struck plenty of water and the Press and Banner will be happy.?Congratu lations from the Mountaineer will be 111 order.
