>V. A. Noal, Pardoned.
Col. Neal ha-, been pardoned by his
Excellency, Gov. MoSvvooney. wearo
not advised whothor upon the plea of
bad health or not. Col. Neal was Su
perintendent of the State Penitentiary
and Wtt9 convloted of failing to turn
over State fund.-, within thirty days
after expiration of his oiliolul term.
I'ending his appeal from his sentence
the mercy comes. It has been eaid
that ho was convicted of n technical
violation of law: but this is a mistake
? the ipiestion wa- a simple; one of
fact?did he turn over, or did he not.
We Buppose the Governor knew what
he whs about and we have little criti
cism to make. There is no doubt but
Neai bad a bad lot around him and this
Is some pallhlt'on of his short-coming,
it would, howjvor, have been more de
cent il Neal 'iad gone to jail under the
sentence la-fore asking for mercy. Hut
again, he was surrounded by advisors
It is perhaps as well bis prosecution
and conviction will have its good
effect.
Since Ihe above was put in type,
Attorney Goneral liolllngor has pub
lished a tart protest of the Governor's
action. He claims that Neal still owes
tho State $2,1100, and emphasizes that
the defence and not the prosecution
was consulted by his excellency. It Is
a case, however, of locking the stable
door after the Btoed has been stolen.
Pish.
Hon. J. T. Johnson, with his family,
spent several days in the city during
last week Ho, with a governmentolll
cial, has completed the inspection of
mail routes for free delivery and the1
inspector has gone to Washington to
report.
Mr. Johnson Is very anxious upon the
mattel of supplying our streams with
fish. We beg to add that it is a matter
of much coneci n to our people. We
hope therefore our friends on the
Reedy, Hnoroe and Suluda, will give
tho matter attention. Let us have
somo of the luxuries as woll as the
necessaries of life. We don't know
who aro the llsh eaters In the county,
but we aro advised that Dr. Cox,G. W.
JDrummond, .1 lin HlUard, Mart Burdlno,
Tom Pedon, Abrain Cook, the Culbert
BOns on the Ktvdy, It. Wharton, Wash
McOrary and U hundred others will not
kick at a three pounder fried ten min
utes out of the water, after or before
soup.
Write to Congressman Johnson and
get information as to supplying your
streams with the tinny tribe.
The License Tax.
Our good neighbor, the Clinton
Chronicle, don't like the license tax
system of that town and talks right
out in meeting :
"The present license system is un
just, ill-constructed, illy executed and
displays absolutely no*intelligence in
its preparation. Wo understand that
it .-as borrowed bodily from Laurens.
If so it is do credit to the Laurens law
makers. Clinton has no use for such a
crude law and it must go. Kven if it
is retained as a law, it will never be
practically operative, or universally ap
plied: and for a town to take laxes from
one man and not from another is hardly
better than robbery."
We aro not prepared to tackle so big
a Subject as the tax system, but beg to
suy for the bcnollt of our cot em por or y
that the system was not original with
Laurens. Wc don't like taxes in any
form. We are with tho Irishman who
being told to answer as to how he would
be tried (by Cod and my country) an
swered that "he did not want to be
tried atal. atal. ycr Honor."
Let us not weary of well-doing, es
pecially when it contributes to our own
well-being. The Winsboro News and
and Herald noting the proposed in
crease in the capital stock of the Lau
rens Furniture Factory emphasises the
importance of ''.small industries" to
towns. A man must fade and shrink
into nothingness, because he must not
continue to grow. Hut a town need
not cease to grow, because new enter
prises add to its youth and vigor, for
young and old men should put their
heads to-getber to doviso something for
tho benefit of tho city and then put
their eapital, energy and intelligence
together for it- conduct. Hy the way,
when it was proposed to have the
streets of a town in England paved
with wooden blocks, Sidney Smith sug
gested, that, the city council put their
beads together.
When you go to the circus the fellow
who twists himself into a half dozen
shapes ami knots is a big end of the
show. He is a contortionist. The Mc
Laurin Press twist it into Tlllman vs.
McLnurin ?really the title should be
McLaurin ndvs. the people In plainer
terms the people against McLaurin.
We should call a spade a spade, a pitch
fork a pitchfork. No good can come of
describing a -pade as an instrument
used for uplifting a part of mother
earth and tossing it into a convenient
carriage for conveyance to a neighbor
ing part of the terrcstial sphere.
#%
Not a Hit of IIarm.
There is u disposition to criticise the
fact that Gov. McSweoney's refusal to
accept, the Senatorial resignations has
not stopped a big campaign and much
political pow-wow. Hut what matters
it? 11 is holiday time with everybody
?and if anybody enjoys a political ha
rangue, why let him have his (ill. He
alth's, it is a kind of charity and all of
us enjoy and feel better fordoing good.
Tho politicians and political aspirants
want to talk mid be heard of ail men,
and It would be cruel not to turn out
on occasion and hoop them up. So
tho complaint of too many political
meetings is premature and not these
meetings, for those who enjoy them.

The law required the Governor of
Mississippi to examine the ofllco of the
State otlieialson the 15tb, August. One
of the otlloials was$100,000short but on
the 20th the money was In the office,
No doubt tho ollieial took the chances
and was obliging political friends.
THE ADVERTISER has persistently op
posed tho creation of new ollicos, with
salaries Perhaps THE ADVERTISER
has been wrong. It might prove eco
nomical to double the number of otllcos,
triple the salaries, and put the rascals
in, Tho offices would go around, the
ollicials would be satisfied with tho
pay, and thus the country could boast
of having till honest men in position?
of trust and honor.
(iov. McSweonoy will not reply to
Attorney General Bellinger's criticism
of his pardon of N'eal. The Governor
is wiso. Silence is golden. The fel
low that shuts bis jaw, keeps his mouth
shut, is given credit for ten times what
he knows. Calhoun, Webster, ami
Clay, who wagged their tongues, lived
for years to see mediocrity go to the
top. The Governor does well to keep
a wise tongue in his head.

Wo have several truck farms and

active anil will grow.

.Notwithstanding the rain that was
falling there was quite a gatborlm; of
friends of the "Old Vets", and every
thing gave evidence of life, love and
prosperity. The holies were III evi
dence and entertained us with sweet
music and recitation.
Representative F. 1*. McCowan. Sen
ator o. P, Goodwin, and the second
edition of William (4. Gore, made quite
laconic speeches,but the most entertain

[Tho following interesting communi
cation from a comrade in a distant
State wits read amid chtcrs, and much
enjoyed: I
Friends and Comrades: ?
Nothing would he more agreeable or
afford me more pleasure than to be
with you at this reunion of Co. ' F
14th S. C. V. at Yarborough's Mill on
old 'Knoree, but circumstances and con
ditions, beyond my control, prevent at
this time, but I shall look forward to
your reunion next year to be with you.
I nope that the grim reaper will spare
you all another year so that I can be
with you in this lifo and on this side of
the Klvor once more: but should my
self or any of you depart from this lit"
before another 19th of August, remem
ber that it is but a shadow that sop
erato us here from those who have
passed on ahead. I have no doubt but
that the spirits of all the members of
Co. "F" who have passed on baforc us
will be near us and well ploased with
those who attend this reunion for the
purpose of keeping their memory
bright in our hearts.
1 cannot command language to ex
press to you all the satisfaction it
would alTord me to see you and tobe
with you on this occasion to talk over
and recount tho events wo were en
gaged In nearly 40 years ago, the Incl
| dents of camp life, the long weary
I toilsome marches, the bivouac in the
rain or snow, when wo laid down to
gether to pet such rest as we could,
I often without rations ami without Uro
to warm our benumbed and weary
bodies, foot sore, tired and hungry, the
strife and confusion of many battles
where many of our best and bravest
shed their blood and laid down their
lives for a cause that was and Is just,
and if not already will be recognized
as righteous by all impartial judges
and minds throughout the world?a
cause which being crushed by brute
force cannot nor will not die, and which
some time will bo vindicated even
our enemies and their descendants will
become convinced that wc were right
and themselves wrong, that every Con
federate soldier who fell in that strug
gle gave up his blood and his life not
to bold the African in slavery but to
uphold and maintain the freedom of
the individual, the liberty of tho citi
zen, human rights, the right of the
poorest and humblest to be regarded as
human, and to keep the souls, Mesh and
blood of Americans above the rule and
dominion of the god of mammon, the
Golden Galf, tho only divinity wor
shiped to-day by the ruling ami gov
[ erning powers of this nation. It was
not to liberate the negro thsl caused
the war, but to enslave free white men.
to subdue and break the spirit of Amer
icanism so that this country could be
ruled by the Tory Aristocracy, repre
sented by Alexander Hamilton, when
this government was beinir formed.
Also, the puritanism of the North en
vied the wealth of the South, and t heir
intention was to impoverish The South
ern people because they knew that if
the Southern people could be subdued
their schemes of aristocratic govern
ment would have no other impediment.
I The abolisfonists know that slavery
would dio out and the African bo re
turned to bis native land if they would
keep their mouth shut and let the
South alone: but to accomplish their
objoct they used slavery as a pretext?
they freed tho negroes from personal
masters and made slaves of every man,
woman, and child In the United States
who hits to work for a living, to the
money power. Wo arc to-day in more
abject slavery to the money power than
the negroes wore to personal masters,
although the humiliation accompany
ing such an admission prevents many
men from acknowledging tho fact. The
self sacrifice and devotion of the Con
federate soldiers to the cause of hu
manity at large will yet be recognized
by all fair minded men everywhere.
Let not the name of traitor or rebel
as applied to us by our enemies deter
us from keeping the memory of our
fairen comrades ever-green in our
hearts, and without malice, hatred or
envy, firmly maintain the justice of
our cause and the honesty and int verity
of our motives. Lot it not bo taught
our children or ?ny of our people that
those, of us who gave up thoir llvoa in
that struggle were misguided, dishon
est or insincere in their devotion to
to the cause of liberty ami humanity
everywhere, and that while we ack
nowledge defeat wo maintain the hon
esty of our acceptance of the rosult of
that war, but that we have nothing to
apologize for, nothing to bo ashamed of
and nothing to regret but the loss of
so many of our comrades, kindred and
friends, and that we were not success
ful .
Hoping that you will enjoy your
selves,that many if not all Of you may be
present, and that In renewing the ties
that hold us together on so many bat -
tlefields from (Jaino's Mill to Appamat
tox, that all will remember me as ever
their friend and comrade.

They called 1-12, and the survivor- a
you see aro few. They have a com*
p'oto record which tolls where each
comrade fell. After this Impressive
service was over tho choir snug "When
the roll is called up yonder." Then
the most beautiful poem was delivered
by a fair daughter of one whom Lau
rens county delights to iionor, Mr.
James Sloan. Uno could not holp but
think ami know that this southland is
far superior loans land under the lun.
Then we had an address by Mr. Frank
McGowan, of f.aureus, on tho cause
of the great war between the state-,
it was a masterly elTort, one that I don't
think our Northern friends could an
swer. Then dinner was announced, a
picnic dinner that surpassed anything
the writer has ever witnessed. The
best order prevailed; all had plenty,
and no drinking or profane language
was heard on that ground. After din
ner was over. Senator o P. Goodwin
gave us a line ppeoch. Thus tho moot
ing of the remnant of the company
was called to order by their chairman
again and our host Air. I). Yarborough
was unanimously elected a member
among them for his untiring zeal and
liberality toward them, and his mill
was chosen as their next place of meet
ing one yoa?" hence, We noticed among
the survivors Miss .lane Starnes, who
has change of the county homo for the
unfortunates, and has been in charge
of the poor of that county several years.
