It is of first of Importance that the people of Laurons elect men of ability, force and high character to the goneral assembly. We should have legislators from this county capable of serving the Btato and serving it well. We should rejoioe to seo Laurens men in tho house proving thcmsolves so distinctly and conspicuously valuablo to the county aud to South Carolina that in the absence of violont factionalism they would retain their seats from term to term by practically unanimous voice. Tho office of representative is not ono of profit. No man makes money by going to the legislature. It Is an of fice of high honor which the abl?st and best men we havo should bo willing to fill for tho good that thoy could do for their people?all the people of South Carolina. In the olden times such men as Capt. Robert Cuningham, Col. James H. Irby aud Mr. Henry C. Young, and a little later Mr. Charles P. Sullivan, and Col. Wm. D. Simpson, mado Lau rens county's voice ono to bo hooded throughout South Carolina. No man is too big to serve Laurens if hor peo ple call upon him. Tho timo demands mon, ? strong, capable men who can lead and whoso trained judgment can be rolled upon. It is at this juncture a trivial consideration whether this man or that renn believes lu this or that little statute or proposition, for no is sues have been prosented this year worthy of evon sharp debate. It is, therefore, an opportune timo for the people to call to the work of logisla-, tlon men whose personal woigbt will be felt. Sis candidates are before tho vot ors. Prom them we shall be ablo to mako up a tieket satisfactory to our selvos. We bollcvo that most of them arc better material than tho average house of representatives is made of. Nevertheless, wo have heard It sug gested that other mon aro needed in the field. We think that no man in Laurens upon whom a strenuous de mand should bo made by a considera ble number of representative citizens would decline to run. As a rule, men of mature years who have signal abili ties and have achieved marked success in any line of life will not ask to go to tho legislature. But if they are im pressed with the fact that a widespread and genoral desire for their services ex ists they will not refuse, evon if to con sent involve a sacrifice. The oneway to so impress them is to mako it clear to them by solicitations from a large number of influential pooplc that thoy aro really wanted at the front. *** A Word for McLaurin. Had Senator MeLuurin accepted tho federal judgeship be would have been unanimously denounced as having ?'sold out" to the republicans to get it. But ho has refused the judgeship, af firming that he is unwilling by accept ing to lend color to a charge of treach ery even 'hough conscious of its fal sity. MeanwhUo, most of our esteemed contemporaries continue to abuse Mr. McLaurin, attributing all manner of base motives to bis declination. The Advertiser, unlike some of tho bitterest of Mr. MoLaurin's pres ent despisers, has never had confidence in him as a public man, although in in private life he is a very well be haved and agreeable sort of chap. It seems to us, however, that it is shame ful to abuse him for declining the judgeship. On its face, the declination was made from a creditable motive and in our judgment it is small and de spicable to question his motives in the absence of proof derogatory to them. Mr. McLaurin at least occupies incom parably higher ground than those whose souls arc too small even to har bor the conception of a worthy deed on tho part of an enemy. We say this much because a sense of common fair play bids us to say it,?notwithstanding that we think Mr. McLaurin in a gen eral way the most pitiable failure in public life?and deservedly so. CHAKUKl) WITH MURDElt. Bill Caldwell Accused of Killing Jerry Barksdale. The Ncwberry Observer of Friday says: "Tho Observer reported at the time that Jerry Barksdale, colored, was killed by a train on the G. O. & N. rail road one mile west of Whitmire on July 4th. The coroner's Inquest so found. The body was badly mangled by the cars and there was then no suspicion of foul play. "Since then the dead man's mother, who lives at Laurens, has charged a negro named BillCaldwell with killing him. It seems that Caldwell and Barksdale and a woman had gone to Whitmiro the 3rd of July from Chester. It Is now thought there was some trou ble about the woman. A suspicious circumstance claimed is that Caldwell denied after the dead body was found that he had seer Jorry Barksdale, but it develops that when ho denied it he had the hat and overalls of the dead man in his possession, and tho overalls are said to havo blood on them. "The mother of the dead man swore out a warrant before Magistrate Pant at Whitmire charging Caldwell with the killing. He was arrested on Satur day night in Laurens by Sheriff Duok ett, and Sheriff Buford sont up there for him on Tuesday and now has him In Newborry jail." Toll Your Neighbors.

Having Heard the Speeches He Ham mers a Few Malls on the Head In Characteristic Stylo. Editor, The Advertiser, Sir:? A pleasant ride down to your city on the 18th lost, placed me in touch with hundreds of old friends of Laurens Couuty and we felt the thrill ing emotions struggling for expres sions so characteristic of reunions. It was campa'go day and I was favorably impressed with the tone of tho cam paign procedure and with the general character of the candidates. They ap pear to bo In good spirits, and for the most part in good humor. It is the first campaign year in sixteen years ontirely devoid of issues. We've been fighting fire all these years, and it would seem that the whole thing had burnt through or blown to atoms and that we arc to have a season of rest. Why, the candidates have to actually hunt up something to talk about. The old planks of our former platforms are worn out and burated through. The planks we used to stand on when the boys and I used to romp and rear and make fur fly from the hustings?i. e. retrenchment, low taxes, rotation, free passes, prohibition, local option, dis pensary and rips and thunder. Wo see them tamed down now and scrambling through the debris hunting pieces of slabs and poles with which to impro vise a platform on which to stand, i.e., to wit: Good roads, education, soldiers' home.bolng good to your wife and keep ing plenty of stove-wood and bacon. A tame sort of way of running a campaign indeed! No wondor the candidates have to resort to funny jokes in order to keep the people awake. We hear of of no slavery, mud-bedraggled servi tude, ex'ortlon, grinding the face of tho poor; of howling calamities and thunderation generally. They are all agreed?each afraid to step off of tho mutual edifice and lay down a sound solid oak plank 4x12 inches and run aclash something. That's right, boys, take it easy, be light and tread softy, hold your skillets level and don't spill your gravy. I have been along there and can speak from experience. I clashed against policies and jostled against men and spilt my gravy. It wont do. The situation reminds me of the story of the Mothodist preacher who was wont to cervea fashionable church in a fashionable city in Kentucky. On his arrival ono of the stewards foil in to make his acquaintance and to give him a few pointers. After coming to the point ho began: "Well, parson, I thought beBt that you had best not say anything against dancing in your ser mons while stationed at this place. Mr. A., whose wife and daughters are con sistent members, is quite rioh and pays largely to the support of the church. And, you see, their daughters some times trip the light fantastic. "Very well," said the minister, "I will consider your advice." Soon after this oflicial had taken leave another steward dropped in and before leaving advised the parson that It would not be expedient to preach against whiskey since Sister B. was one of tho best members and her hus band, while a good hearted man, was of a sensitive nature and kept a bar room. Thus it went until eaoh of the stewards had paid their respects and tendered their advice. The visitor treated each with cour tesy, but on parting with the last visi tor he solemnly remarked: "Well, now, brethren, you oflicials have each kindly advised me what not to preach against and each has given a plausible reason. Ono advised not to preaoh against whiskey selling, another whis key drinking, another dancing, an other horse racing, etc., until every crime in tho decalogue is taken up. Now I am at a loss to know what to preach against; will you bo kind enough to advise mo as to that?" "Wollycs," said the puzzled dicta tor, "yes?huh?I th'nk maybe under all the circuinstant s, sir, I would preach against?let's sec?yes; preach against the Mormons; they haven't a friend In town." Brother Bon. Notice of Registration. STATE SOUThTcAROLINA, County of Laurens. Ollicc of Supervisors of Registration, Lau rens Couuty. Laurens, s. o., July 8,1002.
