Sis" Again, the same writer said:
''Real estate in cities and towns
has fallen in price to such an eX-
tent that mortgages of five years
duration most commonly take the
WhOte properly, and tedres the mort
g0yOr in debt"
Early in this month, Il National
Farmers Congress convened at st.
Pauls, Minnesota. Their president
Il Mr.. Robertson, on opening the
Congress adverted in strong terms
to the lunguiShing condition OF
Agriculture throughout the whole
nation, and painted in strong colors
the necessity OF relief to avert still
greater prOStratiOn. Could the de-
pressed condition of agriculture
in other States or the "hard times"
which cause strikes" and labor or
CARNATIONS and demonstrations,
come from the South Carolina coli
garchy Of lawyers" or from too
great an allowance to the Govern
nor for stationary, OF any or all OF
the petty cXtravagances charged
against I'll State Government?
AS well might anyone attempt to
dam up the mississippi with his
foot, or tunnel through the Blue
Ridge with gimblet, as to attempt
to account for our depressed bust
ness condition by referring exclu-
SlvcIy to our State Government!
70 do so, is to manifest a most
superficial view of the subject; is
virtually, trying to cur Il dcsper-
ate case of fever with n scidlitz
powder. Our country is in bad
condition; we are getting no bet
ter .taSt.' The rich are getting
richer and the poor poorer. y few
favored mCnopolists are %fattening
on the sweat and toll of the masses.
While this may be avoided to a
small extent by some State laws,
the greatest cause, by far, is en-
tircly outside Of any State laws.
But we must reserve this to another
time. For the present we will on
ly inquire who OF our Tillmun wor-
shipping friends a tell what tax
he or they, or anybody, pays annu-
ally to the United States? Who of
our many Agricultural Clubs can
tel us how much Laurens Comfy
annually pays, in the shape o indi-
rect taxes, to the United States
Government? If any of u Agri-
cultural Clubs can give us this in
formation. we would be extremely
thankful for them to do so. In the
meantime we will give some facts
on this point next week.

The prospect for an early com
pletion Of the Chester, Greenwood
and Abbeville Railroad grows
brighter than ever. South Caro-
lima has shown energy, zeal and
determination to succeed from the
first, but now, the assurance comes
that Georgia, and especially the
merchants and business men of
Athens, are fully aroused to the
Importance Of the enterprise.
Such Il road has long been cOntem-
plated by the syndicate which is
now pushing the project. 1t is
the legitimate extension OF the
system controlled by Nh. RoBERT-
SON. 1t is the connecting link for
this company, between the North
and South. This road passes
through Laurens County, because
1T affords an inviting field, but the
advantages which the section
through which it passes will re-
ceive, are incaiculablc. Surely no
N who has watched, even cas-
ually, the rise and progress Of the
town Of Laurens; who have noted
the revolution whichr ailroadS have
wrought in the price of goods, and
especially heavy goods and cotton,
can for a moment question the val
ne of railroads. With this grand
thoroughfare, in addition to
numerous roads, Laureus will in
deed be a condition to hold her own
with any County in the State. Let
bands work for this grand IN
terprise.

PUSH.

The American citizen has gained
a world renowned reputation for
energy and progressive activity.
The Southern gentleman of other
days, reclining in ease and clc-
gance, surrounded by ali the lux
uries Of life and comforts which
wealth can bring, is a rare specta-
Gle in this age. In his stead can
be seen the busy, bustling man Of
business. Those who now acquire
wealth in the South, do not seek
happiness in Incidence, but they
have learned that true happiness
comes only when the faculties Of
body and mind are given healthy
exercise. "Be up and doing" is a
motto which the young man of the
period cannot disregard with i'm
punity.
In all the aims of life, we find
that those only have reached their
goal who have maintained a fixed
determination to succeed. Push
is the WatchwOrd of the hour.
Growing industries and sharp com
petition render activity and bust
ness enterprise prerequisites to
success. Day by day we see that
there is growing a tendency to OBJ
Iiterate the ideas of aristocracy
founded upon occupation, and the
advanced American idea is that
honesty and industry coupled with
culture and intelligence, is all that
is necessary in order to give an en-
trance into 1t respectable circle i'm
society.

Much is being said about an as
ISOLATION being formed to effect a
loan to citizens of Charleston, with
the State to endorse the bonds.
We all feel Il deep interest in Char
lesion; the recent calamity that
has befallen our metropolis, touch
ed the hearts of all Carolinians.
Every part of the State, i%rrespcc-
tive Of locality, has responded with
an open handed ~liberality, which is
cOmmcndabie. No one could OBJ
ject to giving the State as security
upon the proposed plan, but this is
impra"ticablc. Aside from all
other Objectionable features, the
scheme is unconstitutional, and
that settles the matter. But, be-
cause the State cannot endorse the
bonds, is no reason why Il loan as
sociation could not be formed to
aid these unfortunate citizens in
rebuilding their homes. Ate pro-
viding for those in actual distress,
surely enough funds al be saved
from the liberal contributions that
are coming in to make Il beginning
in that direction.

The State %rejoiceS in the fact that
Capt. WOFFORD, instead Of DIR.
SMITH, will 60 to the State Senate
from Spartanburg. But it is a dis
grace to Spartanburg that DR..
SMITH came within only fourteen
votes of receiving the nomination.
SMITH tried an old dodge-thc cry
of persecution, and Immediately
before the Primary, he crowded
the newspapers with his letters
and flooded the country with his
circulars, which had a striking re-
scmblance to the letters and circu-
lars Of Il demagogue. He styles
himself the "pOor MANS friend,''
end appeals to the lowest class Of
ignorance. When it appears
that such appeals are so near sue
ccssful, it is nc won der that this
man would wish to withhold cdu-
cation, and that SHERMAN had not
spared the South Carolina Univer-
sity frcui his ticndish torch.
o tcmporo, o mores! How long
will the people tolerate and sup
port men who seek to deceive ig-
nOrant voters? But Mr.. SMITH, II
the educational system ofthe State
is allowed to remanin, and rather
than destroy any part, the system
is improved, we may expect a time
when voters can detect impOstors.

ED. LAURENS ADVERTISEH:-
The election is over and Mr.. II.

from this County by the farmers

ter in The ADVERTISER" to whom
the Uerdid has has devoted Il col
IN and II half, has had but one
object, that was to show the incOn-
sistcncy and injustice Of Mr.. Crews
in the manner in which he con
Quoted the campaign. In his "rc-
ply" to my article, he has in my
opinion bettercd his cause but lit
tie. He is welcome to all he has
said in that article. But as a far
mcr Of laurens County, member
OF the Tillman movement, n who
desires that "cvcry tub shall stand
on its own bottom," and moreover,
n who has had no political aspi-
ratlons, nor any pet candidate or
relative in the late contest, | claim
the right to criticisc any of the can
didatcS. | amnOtanXious forancws-
paper war with anyone, and know
ing full well that Mr.. Crews al
ways claims the last word, / will
state here, that all that | have to
say, say now. For my own rea-
son sign myself as before, but I
will inform Mr.. Crews that when
ever he desires, he can call upon
the editor of TIE ADVERTISER for
my name.
Now, Mr.. Crews says he did no
write the article in the Heratd
headed, "The Tillman Raid" but
that he fathcred it. SO much
for that. Pity he did not ex-
plain before he was called upon,
that he did moi write this article,
but that it was dnOnynOus, so that
the people might know how comes it
that the UernM had made such q
summcrsault on this movement.
