The tenor of the letters printed in
another column seems to be that it
will be no easy task to rive the Saluda
side from Laurcns. The reasons urged
against the proposition appear to be
thoroughly appreciated and it is likely
that they will prove even more gene
rally effective when its pleasing edge of
novelty has worn Off.
On the other hand, men of the stamp
of Messrs. Turner, Watts and Pickett
do not go off half cooked and it may be
taken for sure that they do not speak
for q sentiment that has no strength
in their communities. THE ADvERTI-
SER believes that fishermen who drop
lines into the Saluda from the hither
bank will continne Laurens boys at
least until after a constitutional con-
vention, and, let us hope, forever.
