LAURENS. S. C, Oct. 1?, 1901. Democrats and Republicans are the grand classification. Tho Republicans are the "Ins" and can afford to be gen orous. McKinley was classed as broad and generous and justly so. Roosevelt is abused roundly because of a just prido In kindred who fought on the confederate losing side. At the same time tho two parties are as wido as the poles apart on distinctive lines. Re publicanism is centralism?nationalism ?and the party has its mission?to make this a monarchy in fact, nomi nally republican?with all tho para phernalia of an empire?a great navy, a grand army, colonial donendenoies. There is but one force to neutralize this tendency?this all butdoolarcd purpose and policy, it matters not what a gov ermont Is called?but what It is. There fore tho truo Democrats are on their guard, and watchful of every politician who coquots nf dallies with the Repub licans, and the delicacies they give out to so-called democrats. Tho dead liest animals have tho softost tread, the sharpest claws in velvety paws?the gentlest stroko and the sweotost purr. Democrats should be on their guard, when the Greoks aro bringing gifts. Be ye on tho look out, wise as 6orpents. The exception provos tho rule. It is conceded that McLaurin's mission is to aid the Republican policy of building up a respectablo white Republican party at the South. The South is the conservative force antagonizing cen tralization in this goverment. This conservative force will eventually win. Democracy at tho South is tenfold stronger than a sentiment. In its in ception it was founded on reason and argument?there aro five generations of H in the bleed, muscle and bones of its still young manhood. It will fill Its oars with wool and never hear the se ductive eongs of golden and official sirens. Plalock loses tho Colloctorehip. He wont to Washington with McLaurln and it seems all was well. Then tho old lino Republican gang followed and they got Loomls into a talk and he de clared himself tooth and nail one of themselves. 'Thus you must be flesh, fish or fowl. You can't pull with the hare and run with the hounds and win. In tho meanwhile keep your mouth shut until tho other follow has spoken. Dewey's conduct of the Sohley Court of Inquiry indicates that there is one unbiased gentleman in the United States Navy. *** McLaurin's scheme for Republican ising South Carolina won't work.

EL CO PEL AND, County Treasurer. Laarens, & O., Oct. 0,1901-td. Tho Laurcus County Fair. Instead of writing up, as wo had In tended doing, our Fair, we reproduce from Saturday's Nowa and Courier tho story as so well told by that paper's special oorrespondont, Mr. J. E. Nor ment, who was detailed for the work by his paper and spent two days with us. His opinions while highly compli mentary to all, are those of an impar tial observer, and show clearly that no town, no community, ever loses any thing by an expressed willingness to entertain strangers or by exploiting its advantages and aobievements, that now oltlzens may bo attracted and a (rosh impetus imparted to its citizen ship for yot greater undertakings: Laurens, October 0.?Special: To day marked the close c! the second an nual Fair ol the Laurens County Agri cultural and Mechanical Fair Associa tion, and the promoters have every reason to feel satisfied with the result. Last year Dr. W. H. Dial and Dr. H. K. Aiken began work and they soon so interested other prominent business men that about $1,000 was subscribed for tho purpose of organizing a fair as sociation. Suitable grounds wero leas ed on the suburbs of the town, a grand stand, raco track and some of tho nec essary buildings wero erected, a good premium list was olTored and no admis sion fee was charged. Tho gates were open to literally carry out the true spirit and intent of the business pro moters of the scheme. Tho association was organized for the development of Laurens County by the business men of tho Court House town and to give the farmers, country friends and visitors a cordial welcome. It was, in no sonse, to be a inoney tnaking scheme, and the attondance and result of the first year wore more than encouraging, and this year every thing grow and Increased In most satis factory propotion8. Tho orowd yesterday was a largo and very much interested one, and this de spite the tact that aolrcus was coming to-day Tho citizens of Laurens gonorally wero out In full force In tho grand stand especially when the blooded animals wore going around tbo arena. All classes weroropresentcd, including tho grave seigneurs, whoso honorod records aro known over South Carolina. Col. B. W. Ball, enthusiastic In his admira tion of blooded studs, had an eye un ?dlmmed that looked at prize wiuners. Dr. John A. Barksdaio left his presi dent's chair to see what was going on and with these wore many of tho stir ring business men of this growing town. Col. J. Wash Watts, who "will drive one hundred miles to go to a county fair," was shaking hands with many without having such a long drive. The Laurens belles were out in force. Mr. J. C. Wllborn, president of the Nation al Farmers' Alliance, was kept busy and his State colleague. Col. J. H. Wharton, was far from being Idle. Premiums were offrod in all the field, stock, mechanical, household and art departments, and somo unusually fine specimens were seen In every depart ment. In the household department Mrs. W. T. Senn carried off the honors by getting the premium for the best aud largest exhibit. In tho art department Miss Mary Patillo Simpson had a study of Circe, which was an unusually fine spoclmen of tapestry painting. Here also were some fine pen and Ink sketches, aftor Gibson, by Miss Mary W. Camp. The horses, racers, trotters and sin gle and double harness teams would make formidable competitors at tho State Fair. Mr.W.E. Lucas's handsome pair carried off first prize for double teams, and Mr. J. W. Bobertson won ?first single team prize with a stylish wearer of the blue ribbon Mr. A. T. Brown, of Newberry, made six entries of racers and fine stoppers, and seems to havo carried off a dozen prizes and some perquisitos. His stand ard bred stallion, "Adjust." was an easy winnor of the first prize in this class, and his beauty, "Lilly Brown" won easily every race she ontered. Mr. Griflln's nag did the same thing in tho trotting race, winning every, thing in straight heats. Messrs. Owens, Peden and Walker were winners in the half mile races, and these were flno exhibitions. Davis, Roper & Co. and J. E. Minter & Bro. had fine displays from their large stores, and among the trav eling men present was Mr. L. C. War ing, of Charleston. One of the ladles present will pardon your correspondent for specific personal mention, but the circumstances justify this. Mrs. Daniel Munro, now of Gold ville, who was Miss Fannie Griffin, of Laurens. Is a living Daughter of the Bevolutlbn, her father, Private Joseph Griffin, having served in tho Continen tal army, running away from home to secure this privilege. He was married three times?a trib ute alike to the charms of the girls and the bravory of the men of ye olden time. Mrp. Munro, now 66 years old, Is a daughter of his third wife and owns the golden spoon presented to living Daughters of the Kovolution. The Laurens County Fair has boon most successful so far, In tho face of difficulties, and will hereafter, over smoother seas, sail to larger successes.
