Mr.. McLaurin's Statement,

Mr.. McLaurin, who has just reach
ed New York. gave out signed state
ment as follows:
AN effort has been made to create
political sensation by the publica-
ton Of certain correspondence be-
tween Mr.. John Archbold, vice presi-
dent Of the Standard Oil company,
and myself. For that correspondence
have no apologies to make. At the
time the letters were written 1 had
the honor to enjoy and am proud still
to possess the friendship Of Mr.. Arch
bold. for whom have the highest re.
gard. At the time the letters were
written l was engaged in bitter
struggle in which was involved not
only my own political future, but the
economic and political principles for
which 1 stood and which, stated brief
ly. meant the emancipation of the
South from the ignorant prejudice of
Bourbonism and the bloody shirt
self-interest and the progress of an
intelligent industrialism.
I'm the support of these principles
and the hope of this progress saw
then no impropriety in enlisting, if
practicable, the assistance of the most
progressively administered, and the
most intelligently officered, corpor-
ation that human intelligence has yet
produced. Nor has the enormous body
or statutory crime since created or
the hypocritical affection Of moral
ity assumed by some Of our legisla-
lures and congress in any wise
changed ny point of view or quicken
ed by conscience OF eXpediency, as
seems t. have been the case with
some OF my former colleagues and as
sociates.
