Office on Governor island. His friends

rallied the market. and sent it on to
an advance. Toward the end of the

Concerning Hearst.

The New York Evening Post prints an
editorial charging that Willie Hearst is
u %reprObate, morally, of the worst de-
scr:ption. Its language is terrific.
While the Evening Postis a newspaper
that deserves no consideration from
the South, is is none the les, clean and
highly respectable. We cannot con-
csive of its utteriug charges OF dis
SO uteness and shameful immortality
against any man unlsss it knew pre-
cisely what it wal talking about.
Meanwhile, we have heard stories of
Hearst'S iniecencics from newspaper
men heretofore but of course, not being
able to prove them, we haven o printed
them. However, even though Willie
Hearst be as c'ean and pure as a lily,
there is no reason whatever to nomin-
ate him for the presidency, except that
he has plenty OF money. Which il
worse than no money at oil.

Just And Right.

A righteous decision Is that Of q fed
eral judge in a case from q North West
ern s'a6o that relatives of a man killed
on q railway train while riding with q
free pass cannot recover damages. The
attorney whose daughter sued carried
a pass on the back Of which appeared
u waiver on the part Of the passenger
Of all claim for damages in case of &C
cldent. The daughter claimed damages
nevertheless and the court held that
she had no case.
Newspaper men frequently travel
with passes. The passes are given In
return for advertising. la other words,
the transportation is really paid for.
The passes always carry the release
of the company from accident liability.
When the pass is accepted and used,
the passenger includes the release as a
part OF the contract. For the courts to
permit him or his heirs to 0 in
spite OF this contract would be to .s-
liberately place a premium on lying
and fraud.
AS long as q man Is zane it is his
duty to stand by his contracts. Many
foolish contracts are made but it Is not
the businesso the courts to upset them
or modify them on that account.

It's A Lie, Says Grover.

Last week q Kansas Republican con-
gresham named Scott charged on the
floor of the house that Grover Cleve-
land when president had q negro at
dinner at the White House. Repre-.
sentative Webb of North Caroline
wrote Mr.. Cleveland about it aud Mr..
Cleveland replied promptly that cit
was a deliberate fabric ,tion put Of
whole cloth"
TO be a congressman Is a suspicious
circumstance. TO be a Republican cou-
gcessman is doubly suspiciou'. To be
u Republican congressman from the
State Of Kansas is enough to convict
without putting up any evidence and
the jury should find their verdict with
out leaving their seats. OF course Scott
lied. He is q Republican congressm IN
from Kansas. Moreove., Grover is

Watch The Home Market,

Once again we direct the attention of
the farmers TO the home market. For
beef, eggs, fIwls, milk vegetables and
fruits, prices about twice as high are
paid here now "a were five years ago.
The price of wheat Is steadily going
up. The worlds condition is such that
all food stufs must remain high. 1t Is
of the utmost importance that farmers
in Laurens produce this year what they
and their families expect 10 eat. 1t is
qui'e possible that bacon, o r and
wheat will be S high in q few months
that they will eat the profits out Of Is
cents cotton. The thrifty, far-sighted
farmer will be prepared.
