LAUBEN8, S.C., SEPT. 15?, I?00.
a Newspaper Matter.
In ItH issue of Sept. 0, The Laurens
County News published the following
at the head of Its edltoripl column?,
Immediately above Its louding cdltt
rial :
PRIMARY ELECTION,
Sept. 11, 1WH).
For the convenience of our readers
wo publish here the list of those who
run in the primary Tuesday who huvo
their announcements in The News:
FOR SHERIFF.
(Voto for one.)
Gm >. S. Mot Juavy.
Tip is. j. i iuckutt.
Fi >R TREASURER.
(Vote for one.)
M i;ssi:h BAD1I.

(VotO for one.)
c L Johnson.
( has. F. BltOOKS.
KOI I (Oii- NKIl.
(Vote for one.)
\V. I) Watts.
It will be noted that under "coro
ner" only one name was printed. In
another jHirt ot the paper, announce
ment cards of the candidates in the
above list were printed.
Mr. YVatts was elected coroner by
three votes. A change of two votes
would have changed the result. It it
claimed that the publication above re
printed was \mfair to Mr. Ferguson
and perhaps caused his defeat.
Of course it's the business of the
County News how the County News is
run, not ours, but at the same time the
matter is one of general newspaper
policy and ' ethics", so we propose to
comment upon it.
Advertising is one thing and news
is another. It was right and proper
that the announcement cards of those
who had paid for them should appear I
in the advertising columns, as they
did. The ticket we havo reprinted
appeared in the editorial and news
columns. It purported to be printed
for "the convenience of readers."There
was nothing to indicate that it was an
advertisement or that it was paid for.
Wc suppose it was not paid for. The
qualification "who have their an
nouncement in The News" may have
been intended as a method of calling
attention to the advertisement cards.
Hut, printed among editorials and
news matter without advertisement
sign and copying closely the form of
the official ballot. Iis tendency was to
mislead, to convey a wr< ng impression
In sorno cases it did mislead, it did con
vey a wrong impression.
A well regulated newspaper, when
it prints news, is expected to print it
in full and not to suppress a part. The
qualifying clause "who have their an
nouncements in The News." when it is
considered that this ticket v as placid
where newspapers usually print party
tickets for public guidance and that
with the 0Alois] ballot,with instructions
"vote for one,'' fails to save tho publi
cation from its tendency to bo mis
leading Wc have heard of cases in
which It did mislead. People may, in
a rew instances, have imagined that
Mr. Ferguson hail withdrawn The
publication : caused confusion in the
minds of some and probably the loss of
tw^ Vote"?^! Mr. Ferguson. Defeat.
Z7ny retisonabl1. be attributed by^Miv
Ferguson to thV cause^_^?
[n two other" ptaees, the County
News in the ? nine issue printed cards
for Mr. Forgmon asking for support in
the second primary. These, we arc
informed, were advertisements and
paid for: which make it the stranger
that Mr. Ferguson's name should havo
been omitted in the printed list.
Moreover, it should be no ed that the
County News did not publish the re
sult of the first primary as declared
by the county executive committee,
and the printed list was, so far as we
can see. the only intimation it gave to
its readers as to would run in the sec
ond primary, except through Major
Ferguson's paid advertisements.
Finally, wo submit that if it publlsbcd
any news about the election at all, it
should have published it so that the
public could not possibly have been
misled and in its news columns should
not havo suppressed a part of the elec
tion news to the injury of one of the
candidates.
As between the two candidates Till'.
ADVERTISER had no choice, ono being
our old-time friend and the other a
near kinsman.
Wo distinctly do not charge Tho
County News with intentional unfair
ness, but in this e.loso contest, the
effect of its printing a partial ticket in
the way that it did was probably to de
feat a candidate. If it sought that, it
succeeded.
Major Ferguson simply did not feel
able to put his announcement in all
three papers, so iie gave his job work
to tho County News.
The following is what the County
News said about tho matter last week:
"Last week's issue of Tho News con
tain d a list of the candidates WHO
HAD THEIR ANNOUNCEMENTS IN
THE NEWS., Mr. M. H. Forguson's
name was omitted, becauso bo did not
boo fit to put his announcement with us.
Some of his friends wore telling it
abroad that we favored Mr . Watte and
loft Mr. Ferguson out on that account.
Mr. Ferguson has no ono to blamo hut
himself. Ho was asked onco In writ
ing and onco in person to put his an
nouncement with up, but ho preferred
to patronize other papers, i/o seemed
to think that because he gavo us a few
dollars worth of job work wo should
have put his announcement In our col
umn. Hut in justice to tho candidates
who paid us, and as ho Is not an ob
Iect of charity, wo could not publish
llfl card free. It is as unreasonable of
him to exocct US to publish his an
nouncement free as it would bo for
Davis, Roper .V Co., or 8. M. & E. H.
Wilkoa to expect us to ndvertiso them
free. Our living is mnde by tho adver
tisements wo get. If all woro ae un
reasonably as this wo could not pub
lish our sheet.
As to our siding with any ono candi
date In thus campaign it is a mistake.
Whllo wo woro publishing tho dally,
wo troated overy ono fairly, giving ub
food write up to those who did not nd

Expediency.
Foe (lie vast majority of those who
votod for Mr. McSwoenoy wo have do
word of criticism. They wore voting
for the dispensary, voting as tin y have
voted for ten years, atid as they wer.'
generally expected to vote. Nor is
there anything harsh to he said of those
in certain cities who voted for Mr. Mo
Sweeney. Theirs wore votes of ex
pediency, which appeals at times to us
all.
If SOine gallant, high-minded gentle
man, embodying most that we cherish
in South Carolina politics, some line old
soldier and able man like Major Barkor,
of Charleston or Mr. Youtnans, of Co
lumbia, had been a candidate,we night
have voted for the other man on grounds
of expediency. We hope not. But if
we had, it would have been at tho price
of some of our self-respect. We should
have been distinctly conscious of hav
ing done a cheap thing and we should
not have eared lol>oastof the little gain
that. wo had from the result. And so,
knowing how many of us may forget
our better impulses in political affairs,
we have no "railing accusation" to
bring against Charleston and Columbia
for voting against such a man as tho
examples wo have cited. It may have
been calculating and shrewd of Colum
bia and Charleston, but it was not like
them, and wo must at least be allowed
to regret the new roles in which they
are playing.
Our Temperance Institution.
Tho State Hoard of Control at their
meeting last week purchased only 4,000
barrels of whlskoy, ease goods not
counted. "Christmas comes but once a
year." Ono hundred and sixty thou
sand gallons is scarcely a gallon to tho
head of the adult, male population.?
There is danger of South Carolina "go
ing dry" yet.
RIGHT LIVING.
One of tho Many Things Which Chris
tinns Ought to Do.
[Communicated.]
Wo have a list of these things in Ko
rnaus, tho 12th chapter. The first of the
li.-t Is, "Let love be without dissimula
tion or hypocrisy." And if wo only
have our hearts filled with love, this
will lead us to do the other things
spoken of in tho chapter. The apostle
Paul say3: "Love is the fulfilling of
tho law," meaning that love is tho (Oel
ing that will lead us to do all that the
law commands us to do: "Distributing
to the necessity of saints, given to hos
pitality." Saints means Christians,
their necessity means the things they
have need of. Distributing means
sharing with them such things as we
have. Hospitality means kindness
shown to strangers, acd so wo are
taught that wo should bo willing to
i-hare with others such things as we
have?when wo find that they are in
need of them and especially that wo
should ho kind to strangers. If we are
truo Christians then this is the way
we will feel and this is the kind of life
we will try to live. There is a good
deal said in the Bible about hospitality
or the kindness we should do to others,
whether they aro friends or strangers.
In one placo we aro commanded to
"use hospitality one to another with
out grudging." In another wo aro
told, "Be not forgetful to entertain
strangers, for thereby some have en
tertained angels unawares." This is
supposed to roler to tho patriarch
Abraham. In the times when tho Bi
ble was written the people were very
hospitable or kind to strangers. Abra
ham was like them In this respect. Wo
have a very interesting example of
this in tho 18th chapter of Genesis,
where we read how Abraham when
alone, sitting in the door of bis tent in
the heat of tne day, saw three men
coming towards him. They wore
strangers and ho had no idea who thoy
were, but he went out and invitod
ihem to come into his tent and stop
and rest and have something to cat.
Then ho had water brought for them
to wash iheir feet, which is a very re
freshing tiling In that warm country.
He ordered provision to be prepared
for them too. Ono of these travellers
turned out to bo the fon of God, our
Savior, and tho others wero two an
gels, all in the form of men. They
wero on their way to the wicked cities
of Sodom and Gomorrah, which they?
were going to destroy and they hP'Vstop
ped on purpose to toi}'Abraham what
they wero goir>? t0 do. And so hore we
see how-Auraham was not forxetful to
? 'iTTTertnin strangers and in doing this
he did "entertain angels unawares "
The people in eastern countries have
very much the same feeling still. They
are given to hospitality. A poor
weaver had a loai of bread given to
him ono day in a certain town in Eng
land when he was very hungry. He
afterwards became a very rich man.
But he never forgot the kindness
shown to him that day when he was so
hungry. Before he died he left a sum
of money in trust for tho purpose of
distributing on tho anniversary of that
day a half penny loaf to every person
in the town and to every person pass
ing through the town a penny loaf.
Ard now to this day out of the money
thus left any traveller passing the
College of St. Cross at Winchester, on
knocking at the gate and asking for it
has a pitcher of ale and a small loaf of
bread brought out for his refresh
ment. When Jesus ontered our world
he met with no hospitality. "Ho came
unto his own and his own received him
not." Bethlehem found no room for
Him in tho Inn "and yet it is His re
ligion which teaches us to bo given to
hospitality.'' Lot us learn to bo hos
pitable to Jesus by finding room for
him Ii? our hearts. This Is tho best
foi m in which we can practice hos
pitality for Joeus always brings a bloss
ing with him whenover ho comes. We
read in Luke, 24th chapter, about two
of the disciples who wore hospitable to
Jesus. They begged him to stay and
eat with them after their walk to
P.nimaus and ho made himself known
to ' hem in tho breaking of bread.
XacchouB was hospitable to Jesus and
took him homo to his louse and Jesus
brought salvation to him that same
day.
Let us be hospitable to stragers and
kind to all.
To the Public!
Tho soason Is upon us when tho far
mers must decide what disposition
they will make of their cotton. OI
course I do not know whether the
price will go up or down?this overv
ono must judge for himself, howovor 1
want to stato to the public, In case
they ile.-,ire, to hold their cotton, wo
are prepared to take oare of it at the
Laurens Bonded Warehouso Company,
and In caso they desire, will advance
thorn a reasonable amount of money
upon their rccoipt. Our terms of
storago and insurance aro very low.
Wo can take caro of all that willcome,
and as our market is ono of tho best in
the State, it will pay overybody to
bring tholr cotton hore.
I would bo glad for tho public to call
on mo at my office at the Kntorprise
Bank or upon Mr. Soxton at the Ware
house.
Yours truly,
N. B-. DIAL,
President.

1'leaHo allow mo spaco in your valua
ble paper to thank my many friends
for the flattering vote they gave mo 01.
the llth inst. Though I wuh defeated,
still 1 must suy that I appreciate the
steadfastness of my friends in my ro
cont contest more than in any othor
contest that I have been in.
The light against mo was unfair and
very unjust, hut I have not a word of
complaint, and I leavo all tho unfair
methods resorted to by my enemies
with them and their God.
Some are ri juicing over my defeat.
This they have a perfect right '?0 do:
because I did my rejoicing several
yours ago.
My successor is a good and deserv
ing man und I will at all times hold up
his hands and strive to aid him in ovory
possible way.
As to tho unjust and unusuul on
slaught made upon me by a number of
candidates defeated in the First Pri
mary and who, lending a willing oar
to every falsehood against me, wont
among tho people and poisoned their
minds with slates and combines, I am
content to turn thorn over to their own
consciences and the tender mercies of
tho people.
I was defeated, because T did not get
votes enough, but my defeat does not
give mo political sore-head. Many of
my fellow-clti/.ens who voted against
mo are yet my friends. They had a
right to vote for whom they pleased.
Laurons county has been kind and very
gonorous to mo and suroly no ono ap
preciates the same more than T.
The memory of my frionds will al
ways bo cborlshed. My enemies T have
already forglvon. f hopo to mako Lau
rens my home and tho latch-strlng of
my door will hang on the out-Bide.
Friends you are all invited.
After thanking my friends aguin

To claim that tho Harris Lithia Water is Superior to any other
water on tin; continent, is claiming a great deal, but we can prove this
to bo so by the analysis made by tho most noted Chemists in Amer
ica, and also by tho most noted physicians from all parts of tho
county. Read what they say:
Mr. J. T. Harris,
Harris Springs, S, G.
Dear Sir:?1 have prescribed
Harris Lithia Water freely, in
cases where a Lithia Water was
indicated, for over seven years,
and have never known it to fail
to prove highly beneficial to the
patient. 1 have used other lithia
waters, but have had better results
from Harris Lithia Water than
any T have ever employed in my
praotioe. r regard it as a sovereign
remedy in Uric acid Diathesis,
Clout, rheumatism of the kidneys
and bladdor. In acute and chronic
bright's disease, and in diabetes
we have no remedy at our com
mand that excels Harris Lithia
Water. I have no hesitancy in
saying that the water may be re
lied upon to give most satisfactory
results, and that it is a sure, pos
itive solvent of Urio acid and the
u rates.
Yours very t ruly,
?lames B, Margan, M. I).,
Prof, of Chemistry and Pharmacy Med
ical Department of the University

Ashevillo, N. C, April 24. 1893.
An extended clinical use of
Harris Lithia Water prompts me
to tho statement that I regard it
as one of the best, if not the best,
Lithia Water known to the profes
sion. In the condition of Phos
phatie Urine, its action is marvel
ous. Its use in the Rheumatic
and Gouty Diseases affords me
more comfort than either the buf
falo or Londonderry Waters.
