The Laurens advertiser. (Laurens, S.C.) 1885-1973, 1895-10-08
CROSS HILL 7

As there seems to be quite a notion
all about for new counties, we wish to
put in a notice for all parties to "hands
oil" this portion OF Daprens county and
the contiguous portion OF Newbprry
county as W intend in due time to pu:
in our plea and have the court house at
this place. 1t the convention will make
the area Is or 20 miles square or the
equivalent in square miles. her Cross
Hill, Hunters and Moons township OF
Newberry, will make q very compact
county, as it would also be one of the
best agricultural and most thrifty sec.
ton of the State. and we can we'll sup.
port a court house, a cotton factory and
bank, with all the needful and proper
manufacturing industries.
The Messrs Chapman have opened up
a new and complete stock of goods in a
new store and are bidding for q share of
the trade. We wish them abundant sue
cess.
DIR. e. M. Pinson is building a beauti,
full residence on Main Street, and we
take it for granted that when completed
the housekeeper will be found ready to
take charge.
There are rumors af1oat of a similar
character in regard to some other young
gentlemen but we cannot report positive
~ as to them.
Messrs p. B. Smith and Geo. Thomp-
son have put up a ginnery and grist mil
in rear of VIM. T~hompson's blacksmith
shop and arc prepared to do the very
best work in their line. This makes the
third gin in our town and all seem to be
busy.
The weather is very dry and is forcing
the cotton to opan. The staple is short,
and the quantity is not more than half an
average crop, but the price at present
will make it realize as much money az
the full crop of last year, and this fact
should be q lesson to IL farmers to keep
the crop within such bounds as would
command the sams price. all time.
Make the supply equal to the demand
and have no surplus, The farmers have
the game in their own hands and should
hold it so. SCRIBE,
The Laurens advertiser. (Laurens, S.C.) 1885-1973, 1895-10-08
Town and Country.

Demagogues have moved heaven and
earth to poison the minds Of the farm
ers against corporate industries. But
they have failed. Reference to the
news columns OF The ADVERTISER will
prove that the farmers of L~aurens are
practically interested in the develop
ment Of their county and that they are
ready to help the town just as the town
is ready to help them. Few fools are
left in Laurens to say that town and
country people ought not to be and are
not the best of friends in their business
relations.

Gold standard Times.

The ADVERTISER will be Obliged IL
some wild eyed genius with a bent tow
ards populism will answer these que.-
tions:
Has Ii not been asserted and howied
that the farmers In the South are poor
because OF the gold standard and no
free silyer.'
Have not politicians declared that
price of farm products were low be-
cause OF no 'free silver?n
Have not the silyerites insisted that
the price OF farm products constantly
fall as silyer's price falls?
Has there been any increase in the
price of silver comparable with the re-
cent increase in the price of cotton?
Have not the politicians taught the
farmer necessarily that the ''money
power" fixed prices and that the talk
OF demand and supply" was mostly
bosh?
Has 1t not been charged that Cleve-
lands financial policy was responsible
for the late pitifully small price of what
farmers ''raise."
Was not the Western corn crop small
last year and was not the price of corn
high in spite of the ''gold standard"
Is not cotton a farmer product?
Wa not the price about five cents a
pound last year?
Is it not nearly nine cents q pound
this year?
Is not the supply this year probably
small?
Is not q sever million bale crop, for
instance, at 8 cents even, worth more
than a nine million bale crop by twenty
eight millions of dollars?
II the price OF cotton does not fall
and with a fine grain crop 'home
raised" will not the South be in better
condition than it has been in years?
Are we not living under the gold
standard?
Are we not prospecting in spite of the
geld bugs?
Is not Grover Cleveland still Presi-
dent?
Each of these questions may be an
swered "yes" or no."
And when they are the chief free sill
yer arguments are knocked into q
crooked hat.

Worthy Your Confidence

The success of Hoods Sarsaparilla
in ~conquering scrofula in whatever it
may manifest itself is vouched for by
thousands who were severely afflicted
by this prevalent disease, but whonow
rejoice owe a permanent cure by
Hoods Sarsaparilla. Scrofula may APP
pear as a humor, or it may attack the
glands of the neck, or break out in
dreadful running sores on the body or
limbs. Attacking the mucous mem
branes, IL may develop into catarrh or
lodging in the lungs load to consump-
ton. Come as it may, a faithful course
of treatment with Hoods Sarsaparilla
will overcome it, for working upon
the foundation of all diseases, impure
blood, the system is clarified and Wit
allied, and vigor, strength and health
restored to the body.

TilIman and Irby.

Not caring, we don't know anything
about the alleged quarrel between
Senators Tillman and Irby but this we
do Know: If Tillman does not go back
on Irby it will be about the first time
that he has stood to a friend. Tillman
deserted his brother George. He aban-
doned Capt. Shell. He thpew McLau-
rim overheard. He bounced" Hugh
Farley. He enticed Ellerbe to run for
Governor and then practically appoint
ed John Gary Evans to the office. He
gave poor old Col. Tindal the cold
shoulder. He stood by while an anti
beat the faithful Breazeale for Judge.
He treated DR.. Samps Pope, the best
friend and hardest fighter he ever had,
so badly that he kicked out of ''party"
traces. If Tillman does not drop Sena-
tor Irby now, he will drop him sooner
or later,-when in the mean time
Senator Irby has banished Tillman to
q land of political rest.

The Sunday edition of the News and
Courier for several issues is ornamented
with pictures of the members of the
convention, short biographical sketches
accompany the pictures. A. B. Williams
of the Greenville News has been puz-
zled for the last several years to
find the ''local habitation and
names" of the a]ristocrats who have so
pestered the body polite of this State.
The pictures of these distinguished
~personages attracted his attention.
he turned to this Sunday literature
and finds that they represent the lead
ing reformers of the State. the Stan
yarne Wilson's, Bob Aldritch, Bob
Hemphill, r. B. Watson, Patterson,
Stokes,' %Timmerman; and that every
mothers son of them, are of distingu-
ished ancestry. The pictures and
biographies were written by the dis
tinguished subjects, still hankering af-
ter posterity. And now brother Will
liams is giving the public the benefit
OF this Sunday literature and compil-
ing a general index of the pictures.
