The Laurens Advertiser subscribes
fi.iiu to iiu Democratic campaign fund
of 11)12; or sisall we say tho Bryan
fund?
Somehow, ii seems thai a voice
from out t. ' past was heard last
week, but there was no response.
Peoplo have learned to ?hink more
now; are not so easily led astray; and
can heiter distinguish truth from fic
tion.
Tillinnn cannot put up, so has to
renig. lie accuse- some of tho pa
pers in the state of receiving Stand
ard Oil funds in the day- of Me
Laurln's "commercial Democracy."
Tho papers have called the bluff am!

Our heartiest congratulations lo

A marled mail out west h is been

?but never mind what we thought.
"The frlonds of the dispensary hnv<
no paid orators to go over the county"
wonder if the legal talent employed
in the recent contest are working fbl
the love of work, ii" so wo commend
them for loyaltj to their bei lot's,
Olid Is led lo believe thai th< dispen

so piteous is the wail. W hy not got

We congratulate wator Townsend
of Cnion. upon hin recent uttorance:
that lie would hare nothing to do
wiih any contest of the dispensary
I election held thore last Tuesday. The
majority of the Colon people do not
i want a dispensary; lie is willing to
' lei tho people rule.
* ? ?
Now let the contest coino, and if
tho election lie illegal let it be de
clared so. and set aside. The Adver
tiser la r law-abiding paper, obedient
to any law, good or hud; it neither
( oniinonds night riders, nor upholds
the lawlessness of a mob. It is
democratic and believes in tho rulo
of tho people.
? ? ?
If there was not the proper number
of names on tlie "petition for election"
Iben the dispensary ought to ho re
tained.

Mr. John B. Hrooks is a thorough
going Democrat; he deserves much
praise for bis excellent work in the
( ity and county, for tho Bryan fund.

The Columbia State has our unqual
ified congratulation and commenda
tion for its phenomenal work in be
half of the Democratic campaign fund,

An interested correspondent wants
to Know what wo aro going to write
about after the election, national and
dispensary, is over with. Well, we
haven't unite decided, hut wo have
I.n considering the subject of mil
linery, clothes and things. About
tho last-named, though, we must llrst
lonsult the Brnnchvllle Journal. Defi
nite announcement later.

it is betitting that we preserve that
lovely circular of last week in
alcohol.

There are some people in I.aurens
who could have learned something
had they been present at tho opera
house Sunday afternoon.
* * *
Dr. Cromer says a crank is a good
iliiug if it turns something in the
right direction.
* * *
According to .Mr. Cannon's state
ment to the editor a few weeks ago;
namely, that all he desired was a
legal election, we presume that which
ever way the vote went yesterday he
will make a contest. Since, granting
that his grounds of contention are
correct, the election was Illegal, lie
will, of course, have the courts pass
upon it, whether or not tho dispensary
wins.
* * *
By way of explanation, we wish to
state that this page of Tho Advertiser
is already printed before tho result
I if the election Is known.
Last sear the pupils in the Laurens
ti hools received from dspensary prof
its about $1.3"> per capita. A good
fat pig is worth more than that in
my market. 1'rlnclplc should be
rated a little higher.
* * *
When the dispensary was llrst put
in operation there were many who
conscientiously believed that to be
the proper solution of the whiskey
question. That number Is now very
much diminished.
* ? *
I.aureus is already a beautiful city,
inn the best has not been attained.
Paint repair and clean up.

Union is to be congratulated upon
ignln repudiating the dispensary: it
never did do that county any good ?
I and ne\ er will.
* * #
Ti ii or fifteen years hence the iun
lorlty of Lnnrens county people will
wonder that they ever tolerated such
in institution as a dispensary; the
others will well it doesn't matter
much what they wonder.

They say that comparisons are
odious, and Indeed they are, some
times. Ami yet this matter of com
paring is an ever present, existent
mental state, If never expressed.
Within the four months Just passed,
there have appeared tiefere tho Lau
1 roils people two speakers from our
neighboring city of Newberry, mem
bers of the same profession.
One of these speakers addressed
an audience In the park during the
month of August. A largo crowd of
Lnurena voters heard him; they re
all the nature of his speech, the ap
peal be made, amid the reception given
htm. The other, appeared in the
pulpit of the I'M ist Presbyterian
church last Sunday morning, and
tlgaill at the opera house Sunday af
ternoon. Those present readily re
call the manner of man he was, as
a very word of his address clearly In
dicated; they recall tho nature of his
appeal; they, by a glance about the
bouse knew the class at audience lie
had, ami the reception givon him.
Two speakers from Newberry, of the
same profession but not nliko.
We congratulate ourselves that we
have bad the privilege of shearing
more than one Newberry orator, and
ve congratulate Newberry upon the
possession of more than one kind.
