This is a fast age. Every day
brings some new devlopcmcnts,
but the ideas Of the great Georgia
EvangeliSts, Sam Jones and SmallS,
in bringing political issues into The
pulpit, is by no means new. a yum
ion between Church and State has
been the Utopian dream Of many a
statesman, and has proved u rcck
upon which the ship Of many Il re-
public has split. The Church has
n mission to perform, so has the
State; but they car best accomplish
their missions by separate action.
AS Mn organization the Church
shouln have nothing to do with po-
litics; % can the State interfere
with religion without destroying
the germ Of that plant which we call
civil liberty. To escape persccu-
ton ut the hands Of religious big
OTIS, who executed their nefarious
schemes in the name Of the State,
our forefathcrs dared to throw off
the yoke ofoppression, and our free
American Institutions stand to day
AZ a perpetual reminder Of the fol-
ly Of attempting to combine rcIig-
ion and politics. Rev. Sam Smalls
has possibly accomplished some
good since he entered the ministry,
but 1t Is doubtful ifhe can continue,
so long as persists in preaching to
Southern people on the "Sin of Sla-
very AZ 1t existed in the South"
We do not see that this text is
calculated to advance the cause Of
pure and undefled religion. The
war Is over and slavery rs an insti-
tuition no longer exists in any form.
Should he conclude to preach occa-
sionly on sins as they exist today,
inc might find his labors crowned
with greater success.

STRIKE NOW!

either" is a tide in the affairs of
Which, taken at the flood leads
on to fortune,
Omitted, all the voyage thcir
life
Is bound in sha lows and in
miScricS.
The town of Laurcns has reach
cd That critical point, at which we
must edo or die" Our town has for
the past few years made such prog
rcSsand growth,''a as is scldom.sccn# i'm
the South; and even now the pros
poets grow brighter! Each rising
SUI lights the foundation of some
Improvement; each train that ar
riveS brings some new conner. and
everything points to Il still greater
BOOM for LaurcnS. But amid the
din and clash Of hammer and saw,
we hear no sounds upon a factory.
why Is it that this town, with her
enterprise, can sit idly and sec the
mighty march Of Improvement
going on and yet not raise Il finger
to catch the boom and make it per
manent. We must turn the tide
IN the direction Of factories, if we
would increase our population and
nave prosperity. We need and
muSt hnre one Of the largest cotton
manufacturing establishment in
the South. Arc our business mon
afraid to invest in such an enter
prize, when cotton factories i'm this
state have fer several years paid
as high as twenty-five per cent div
1dends; and they have the ASST
II that for every dollar they in
vest, the North will send nvcc All
around us we see these factories
spring up but we are left. And
why? Simply because we cxpcct
others to do al for us. Capitol

communities that arc wi}hcoI |
cooperate, and such Al ling |"
are not difficult to- communities
The Baltim"T,'' nhd'

jim the So -h.hat the Improvement
III, .juth during the past yeas
has eclipscd the record OF any Sec
ton in America, and rcman!cd to
the backgrounds the most dashing
section Of the West. This is due to
the fact that tho world is beginning
to realize that the place to manu-
facturc cotton goods, is the place
where the cotton is grown.
What would such an enterprise
be worth to this town? In the first
place it would add at least the
freight on II bale of cotton from
this place to Charleston, t0'every
bale of cotton sold. AS Il cotton
market the advantage would be
incalculablc. Can any business
man fail to see that an increase Of
Il population, of from 500 to 1000
operatives, spending at least So
cents per day, would affect his
business? We must have some
thing of the kind else all our boom
will come to naught. No Southern
town can expect to rise that does
not turn its attention towards fac
tories. a meeting has be, n called
on this important question, and it
Is hoped that the men of means
will turn out and not let the mat
ter end in words.

Gov. SHEPPARD has acted wisolvi i'm
refusing to call an extra Session
OF the Legislature fer the purpose OF
giving state aid to Charleston.
we have no sympathy whatever
with those up country newspapers
that occasionally burst out with
abuse lnd yituperation against the
low country. Anything, however
slight, that tends to these two soc
lions Of the State should be thrown
aside. There is no reason NLy
laurcns County should not ,ls will
ingiy vote TO appropriate the Stat,
funds to aid Charleston as any OF
our ncighbnring towns or counties,
but the whole thing is wrong. Intact
this taxing power is Il dangerous
thin to monkey with. The tendency.

small an amount az his tax would

the principle by which this direct
exercise of DISCRETION is swallowed
up in Legislative wisdom is wrong.
No man likes the idea Of having an
other dispense his charities.
But, aside from these considcra-
tiOns no necessity exists for sucn,rn
extraordinary measure. There is no
suffering in Charleston from the
earthquake.
They have ample means at hand
from the voluntary contributions to
supply the needy, and surely they
can ask no more, Can it be that
Charleston wants the state to re-
build her city or ever endorse her
bonds" This is unreasonable.
