II UtLKY". i rider the above caption, the cs ie< .id tlreel)wood Journal comes to the defense of Uev. .1. I.. Ilarley, su perintendent Dt' tlio State Anti-Saloon b ie In the following: "We are not set for the defense of Rev. .1. L Ilarley, superintendent of the Aiill-Snloou league in South Caro lina, bin wo <!?> feel thai n?e criti cisms of him b.i certuln newspapers i> ' just and uncalled for. "We arc now gravely told thai Mr. IIa ley is Injuring tli" cause of pro hibition in South Carolina. Cm for hlin there would 1?' greater advances made. We rather suspect that the ground of Mr. Hurley's offense lies In the act thai lie i-> injuring the busi ness of the liquor people. "We do not believe that any man could lake I i- place und escape the sharpest und iuh>i unreasonable crit icism, and at that by some people who ein! n that they are set for the do fei of the cause hi prohibition". Our contemporary, of course in cludes The Advertiser in the general term, "certain newspapers"; If not, wo wish io be Included, for we have critki/.cd Mr. Ilnrle> ami expect to continue the course so long as his actions justify, Whether or not our ? t ili? ism has been unjust ami un called for" depends upon the facts, not upon The Journal's view of the situation. We submit llial when an ofilcer. occupying such a position ns that idled by Mr. ilarley, lets his tongue run away with him. leading him Into mlsstateinents and false ac cus;.: ions in such a manner as to ne cessitate an ignominious retraction, the cause he represents is seriously damaged. Any newspaper or person. aliv< to public sentiment and with a linger on the public pulse, is hound to recognize this fact. W*o are very sorry The Journal is not alive to this fact. "We rather suspect that the ground of Mr. Ilarley's offense lies in the fact thai he is injuring the business of the liquor people", says our neighbor. If we believed Mr. Ilarley, with the aid of the organization he represents, were honestly and legitimately lessen ing the power of the liquor people and aiding, In the proper manner, the cause of prohibition in South Carolina, our ?oic would never be lifted against hi in or his efforts The Advertiser is for stale-wide prohibition, but it is rather particular about the methods employed to secure such a condition', we most certainly do not sanction ' iin: any old way", so tin1 desired end is attained. Very readily do we agree with The Journal ;!...: any man" or newspa per who opposes the liquor traffic is subjected to the sharpest and most Unreasonable, criticism", The Jour nal itself hns suffer id much, and The Advertiser came in for its share last fall. We venture the assertion that no paper in the state was more vilely attacked than this one. Hut. we think The Journal is et nfusing itself some what when it asserts that much of this unreasonable eHtlCsm is made by prohibition advocates. There are some "black sheep" in the camp, of COUl'Si : some blind tigers favor pro 111 bit foil; hilt Wfi believe all the news paper1 criticism of Mr. Ilarley has been genuinely honesi prompted only by a desire for rn I rucks and squareness in ail den)lugs, even to the cnoniica of the cause. \<: we think Mr. Ilarley is hurling the cause, as W0 pointed out some time ago. and we shall continue to think so lll)tll he Changes his tactics. ? ? ? IS IT GAMBLING 1 This Is a queer world, containing some queer people who bold queer ideas. We have received the following In formation: a few days ago, in a cer tain section of the county, a friend of The Advertiser's appronehed a fel low citizen on the subject of subscrib ing to this paper, and giving him the OOUponfl and the benefit of his payment in the great popularity contest that The Advertiser Is now conducting. The man approached said: "No. I do not believe In that kind of gambling", or words to that efTect. Our unknown friend is laboring un ! der the weight of a mighty severe conscience; in fact, u conscience that creates evil. Tho world Is full enough of wrong and vice without these vain imaginings. While we honor u man of conviction, and one who will stand to his belief, wo have but little sympathy with tin* holding of such ideas as thai expressed ahove. They are utterly untenable, and. wo believe, are calculated to do harm in destroying that sense which distin guishes right from wrong. in tin? first place, tho Laurens Ad vertiser could scarcely afford to eon duet u lottery of any kind. No paper that values its reputation can or would attempt it. In tlx* second |dace, tho postal laws would forbid it. and with the Hrsl announcement, tho paper would In* Indicted for violation of the law. In the third place, tin fail that some of I.aiinois county's very best people or.' actively partici pating in tin' contest ought to he evidence enough that it is alt right. Does our unknown friend vote in the elections of his state and tounty? If so. does he consider that a gamble? There is absolutely no clement of chance, no gambling feature in this contest Hull The Advertiser is con ducting. We are -imply offering a prize for the man. woman or child who does the most and best work for us. is there harm in contesting for a prize? If so. the schools and Sun da> schools of the country are sinning daily. ? ITT THO 1 N SI 111)01,. The Abbeville Press and llanner de plores the I'liei thai the court of gen eral sessions jest closed there was the dirtiest In the !.: aory of that coun ty, and says that the feature of it was i he presence of so inan\ young nirls. In an effort to explain tills* fact, our emit ein porr.rv strays somewhat ulleld when it dee lures ll,ni "eiifoived Idle ness" among the children, particular ly in the mill villages, is ;.i the root j of ihe trouble. The press and llan ner thinks thai the child labor law is a! faull litld Ollghl to be repealed. In all likelihood, our contemporary is rigid iibout "enforce,i idleness" be ing at the root of a great deal of tho trouble into which t.i se young .nirls ami boys have fallen: Idle hands are the devil's workshop. Then* Is no greater menace to the entire state than these hundred.- of children "run nini? loose" on the streets, beyond the pale of any authority. In the streets they acquire habits that develop Into criminal traits, and in the end. the | state guffers. Children, from under paren rtl uuthorit> and out ol school, ent'tto! and will not grov into good, law-abiding citizens. Now. it is a fact that the State of South Carolina is enforcing idleness | upon a great number of children in | the enforcement of the child labor law. Hut that does not argue the In justice or wrong of that law; it is one of the best laws on the statute; hooks. Hin. the state is doing an injustice to her citizenship ill its failure to enact a law that should in reality be n counter-part. In so far as the mill villages are concerned, of the labor law. and that is a COIUptll-I sory education law. Heiter let the I children work in the mills than have I them run. unrestrained in the streets. \ Hoi even that is not the solution, j Put them in school. Yes. the state is responsible for this "enforced idleness" that our contem porary speaks Of But It is the r. lit of duty only half performed, not by the enactment of a law. in Itself wrong or unjust; the two should go together. J and together if rigidly enforced, j should be ft blessing to the entire stale. Put the children In school, and you will not lind them In the criminal courts of the land. ? ? r i ii INKS, MK. \s w.i.vt 1:.

And then, some young men from the front seats in the pit hail to come in late after the Intermission; they did not disturb the audience so milOh as the orchestra, over which they bad to c limb to reach their seats. Hut. taken as a whole the order was the best yet, and the people thank you for it. The Advertiser beg8 to thank you for the kind and courteous reply to our remarks last week ? ? ? MR. HOLLAND'S CH I ROES. In another column is an article, sinned by Mr. T. H. Holland of Scuf lletown township, In which some ra 1 ther grave charges are made against Superintendent of Education Geo. L. Tilts. This Is an outcome of the now rather famous " Long Branch school row" which has had the attention of the people for s( me time. A good deal of ill feeling has been engendered on account of the differ-, ernes arising from the dismissal of the trustees of the Long Branch school and the subsequent removal of Miss L?ne, teacher of that school.) There are two factions in Scuflletown I district number one: the adherents of the unknown tongue religion and those who oppose it. This religion has been the cause of disrupting the school out there: it was the cause of division on the ta\ election some weeks ago. and the end is not yet. As to (he Charges Mr. Holland, in his card, makes against the county superintendent of education, we have nothing to say. Mr. Pitts, we pre sume will answer for himself: tin- col umns of The Advortiser are open to him in reply, JllSl as their use has hi-en given Mr. Holland in stale his grievances. However, we do not hes itate to say that Mr. Holland has made some pretty strong statements, which if not substatiated may cause him em barrassment. He says that "the re port Is false from start to ilitlsh", re ferring to the figures given by Mr. Pitts In The Advertiser in Its issue of j June nth of this year. lie also Insin uates a misappropriation or misuse of funds, and a "padding" of the school , roll. From information received al this oilioe there is considerable inlsiii uor | standing in some sections as *?> the conduct of affairs in the I.oiiR Branch school since the removal of tin- trus tees la^t spring: hence, culighlenmeiii from Mr. Pitts will he welcomed. ? , ? Snys the i nii n Progress: "The fol lowing adaptation of a well known poem' is sympathetically dedicated to i Ccuoral llubbard, president of the. I'eury Arctic club and Commitnder Peary, whom* according ii> recent pres., dispatches have hail numerous conferences of late". (The poem fol lows.) Possibly our contemporary ! meant who" instead of "whom"; pos dbly not. who know.-? * ? ? The Cnioil Time- of last week had an editorial that, lo our way of think in*.:, was one of the b/?st that has ap peared in the public prints of South Carolina in many a day. It was head ed "The Tillies Loses A Friend". That friend I ?) got mad because The Times did not gran! him special fa vors; he had his paper stopped. To this "friend" we say : Some day The I Times will contain your obituary, in' Which all your virtues will he recited, your sins forgotten, and your soul wafted to heaven borne on sweet charity's wings While you are liv ing, do for the love of goodness, ex ercise al least, fairness, if you have ! no charity in your own heart. * * ? Remember: 'The i.aureus Advertiser is worth $1.00 per year and wo are offering no premiums. In other words we do not consider the paper worth just lit"ry cents, and give yon a fifty cents watch to make up the deficit in value. We are printing from eight to twelve pages of home news every week -two or three times as much as any other paper in the county. ? * ? The two thousand mark in subscrip tion has been reached. Mr. Adver I'ser. this, according to recognized newspaper standards, means just 10. 000 readers of this paper every week Never in the history of any paper in Ho c!t\ oi con,it; has ouch a Mst been had. Now is the time to net in some good and effective advertising. space in our advertising columns Is more valuable than it has ever been: and it is cheaper. ? ? ? ' The man who can run a newspaper to suit everybody has gone to heaven i loin; ago". Bven so: even so. ? ? ? Aft ex mayor of St. Louis says it is ' worth $15,000 to be mayor of that , city. Shucks!

And by the way. there are I wo or three hundred people in this county who owe The Advertiser any where from SO cents to $8.00. Cay up. then give to charily. Debts have first claim. ? ? ? A sheriff In Mobile. Ala., Is said to be holding a lot of whiskey. We know a man in this stat? who can hold a lot of it most any obi day In the week. ? * ? Again we invite opinions on the matter of lengthening the term of of fice for the county superintendent of education. In speaking of the ques tion Monday, a good citizen of tho I county said: "Yes, and all the ofjlcers ' should b? elected for four yoars; if that were tho case, we would have more work und le*? politics". The: suggestioil is a good one. Think it over. ? ? ? By the way. what does the legal pro- I fession stand for; what is its ruison d'etre? In our innocent ignorance, we once thought its operations were to aid and assist the h truments of just ice. 4.4* * JtHt * *?** ** J SOCIAL AND PERSONAL. | ?* *, Mrs. Robert B.
