i rider the above caption, the cs

the defense of Uev. .1. I.. Ilarley, su
perintendent Dt' tlio State Anti-Saloon
b ie In the following:
"We are not set for the defense of

"We do not believe that any man

Our contemporary, of course in

term, "certain newspapers"; If not,
wo wish io be Included, for we have
critki/.cd Mr. Ilnrle> ami expect to
continue the course so long as his
actions justify, Whether or not our
? t ili? ism has been unjust ami un
called for" depends upon the facts,
not upon The Journal's view of the
situation. We submit llial when an
ofilcer. occupying such a position ns
that idled by Mr. ilarley, lets his
tongue run away with him. leading
him Into mlsstateinents and false ac
cus;.: ions in such a manner as to ne
cessitate an ignominious retraction,
the cause he represents is seriously
damaged. Any newspaper or person.
aliv< to public sentiment and with a
linger on the public pulse, is hound
to recognize this fact. W*o are very
sorry The Journal is not alive to this
fact.
"We rather suspect that the ground
of Mr. Ilarley's offense lies in the fact
thai he is injuring the business of the
liquor people", says our neighbor.
If we believed Mr. Ilarley, with the
aid of the organization he represents,
were honestly and legitimately lessen
ing the power of the liquor people and
aiding, In the proper manner, the
cause of prohibition in South Carolina,
our ?oic would never be lifted against
hi in or his efforts The Advertiser
is for stale-wide prohibition, but it is
rather particular about the methods
employed to secure such a condition',
we most certainly do not sanction
' iin: any old way", so tin1 desired end
is attained.
Very readily do we agree with The
Journal ;!...: any man" or newspa
per who opposes the liquor traffic is
subjected to the sharpest and most
Unreasonable, criticism", The Jour
nal itself hns suffer id much, and The
Advertiser came in for its share last
fall. We venture the assertion that
no paper in the state was more vilely
attacked than this one. Hut. we think
The Journal is et nfusing itself some
what when it asserts that much of
this unreasonable eHtlCsm is made
by prohibition advocates. There are
some "black sheep" in the camp, of
COUl'Si : some blind tigers favor pro
111 bit foil; hilt Wfi believe all the news
paper1 criticism of Mr. Ilarley has been
genuinely honesi prompted only by a
desire for rn I rucks and squareness in
ail den)lugs, even to the cnoniica of the
cause.
\<: we think Mr. Ilarley is hurling
the cause, as W0 pointed out some time
ago. and we shall continue to think
so lll)tll he Changes his tactics.

IS IT GAMBLING 1
This Is a queer world, containing
some queer people who bold queer
ideas.
We have received the following In
formation: a few days ago, in a cer
tain section of the county, a friend
of The Advertiser's appronehed a fel
low citizen on the subject of subscrib
ing to this paper, and giving him the
OOUponfl and the benefit of his payment
in the great popularity contest that
The Advertiser Is now conducting.
The man approached said: "No. I do
not believe In that kind of gambling",
or words to that efTect.
Our unknown friend is laboring un
! der the weight of a mighty severe
conscience; in fact, u conscience that
creates evil. Tho world Is full
enough of wrong and vice without
these vain imaginings. While we
honor u man of conviction, and one
who will stand to his belief, wo have
but little sympathy with tin* holding
of such ideas as thai expressed ahove.
They are utterly untenable, and. wo
believe, are calculated to do harm in
destroying that sense which distin
guishes right from wrong.
in tin? first place, tho Laurens Ad
vertiser could scarcely afford to eon
duet u lottery of any kind. No paper
that values its reputation can or
would attempt it. In tlx* second
|dace, tho postal laws would forbid it.
and with the Hrsl announcement, tho
paper would In* Indicted for violation
of the law. In the third place, tin
fail that some of I.aiinois county's
very best people or.' actively partici
pating in tin' contest ought to he
evidence enough that it is alt right.
Does our unknown friend vote in
the elections of his state and tounty?
If so. does he consider that a gamble?
There is absolutely no clement of
chance, no gambling feature in this
contest Hull The Advertiser is con
ducting. We are -imply offering a
prize for the man. woman or child
who does the most and best work for
us. is there harm in contesting for
a prize? If so. the schools and Sun
da> schools of the country are sinning
daily.

ITT THO 1 N SI 111)01,.
The Abbeville Press and llanner de
plores the I'liei thai the court of gen
eral sessions jest closed there was
the dirtiest In the !.: aory of that coun
ty, and says that the feature of it was
i he presence of so inan\ young nirls.
In an effort to explain tills* fact, our
emit ein porr.rv strays somewhat ulleld
when it dee lures ll,ni "eiifoived Idle
ness" among the children, particular
ly in the mill villages, is ;.i the root j
of ihe trouble. The press and llan
ner thinks thai the child labor law
is a! faull litld Ollghl to be repealed.
In all likelihood, our contemporary
is rigid iibout "enforce,i idleness" be
ing at the root of a great deal of tho
trouble into which t.i se young .nirls
ami boys have fallen: Idle hands are
the devil's workshop. Then* Is no
greater menace to the entire state
than these hundred.- of children "run
nini? loose" on the streets, beyond the
pale of any authority. In the streets
they acquire habits that develop Into
criminal traits, and in the end. the |
state guffers. Children, from under
paren rtl uuthorit> and out ol school,
ent'tto! and will not grov into good,
law-abiding citizens.
Now. it is a fact that the State of
South Carolina is enforcing idleness |
upon a great number of children in |
the enforcement of the child labor
law. Hut that does not argue the In
justice or wrong of that law; it is
one of the best laws on the statute;
hooks. Hin. the state is doing an
injustice to her citizenship ill its
failure to enact a law that should in
reality be n counter-part. In so far
as the mill villages are concerned, of
the labor law. and that is a COIUptll-I
sory education law. Heiter let the I
children work in the mills than have I
them run. unrestrained in the streets. \
Hoi even that is not the solution, j
Put them in school.
Yes. the state is responsible for this
"enforced idleness" that our contem
porary speaks Of But It is the r. lit
of duty only half performed, not by
the enactment of a law. in Itself wrong
or unjust; the two should go together. J
and together if rigidly enforced, j
should be ft blessing to the entire
stale.
Put the children In school, and you
will not lind them In the criminal
courts of the land.

MR. HOLLAND'S CH I ROES.
In another column is an article,
sinned by Mr. T. H. Holland of Scuf
lletown township, In which some ra
1 ther grave charges are made against
Superintendent of Education Geo. L.
Tilts. This Is an outcome of the now
rather famous " Long Branch school
row" which has had the attention of
the people for s( me time.
A good deal of ill feeling has been
engendered on account of the differ-,
ernes arising from the dismissal of
the trustees of the Long Branch
school and the subsequent removal of
Miss L?ne, teacher of that school.)
There are two factions in Scuflletown I
district number one: the adherents of
the unknown tongue religion and
those who oppose it. This religion
has been the cause of disrupting the
school out there: it was the cause of
division on the ta\ election some
weeks ago. and the end is not yet.
As to (he Charges Mr. Holland, in
his card, makes against the county
superintendent of education, we have
nothing to say. Mr. Pitts, we pre
sume will answer for himself: tin- col
umns of The Advortiser are open to
him in reply, JllSl as their use has
hi-en given Mr. Holland in stale his
grievances. However, we do not hes
itate to say that Mr. Holland has made
some pretty strong statements, which
if not substatiated may cause him em
barrassment. He says that "the re
port Is false from start to ilitlsh", re
ferring to the figures given by Mr.
Pitts In The Advertiser in Its issue of
j June nth of this year. lie also Insin
uates a misappropriation or misuse of
funds, and a "padding" of the school ,
roll.
From information received al this
oilioe there is considerable inlsiii uor
| standing in some sections as *?> the
conduct of affairs in the I.oiiR Branch
school since the removal of tin- trus
tees la^t spring: hence, culighlenmeiii
from Mr. Pitts will he welcomed.

The Cnioil Time- of last week had
an editorial that, lo our way of think
in*.:, was one of the b/?st that has ap
peared in the public prints of South
Carolina in many a day. It was head
ed "The Tillies Loses A Friend".
That friend I ?) got mad because The
Times did not gran! him special fa
vors; he had his paper stopped. To
this "friend" we say : Some day The I
Times will contain your obituary, in'
Which all your virtues will he recited,
your sins forgotten, and your soul
wafted to heaven borne on sweet
charity's wings While you are liv
ing, do for the love of goodness, ex
ercise al least, fairness, if you have !
no charity in your own heart.

Remember: 'The i.aureus Advertiser
is worth $1.00 per year and wo are
offering no premiums. In other words
we do not consider the paper worth
just lit"ry cents, and give yon a fifty
cents watch to make up the deficit in
value. We are printing from eight
to twelve pages of home news every
week -two or three times as much as
any other paper in the county.

The two thousand mark in subscrip
tion has been reached. Mr. Adver
I'ser. this, according to recognized
newspaper standards, means just 10.

Again we invite opinions on the
matter of lengthening the term of of
fice for the county superintendent of
education. In speaking of the ques
tion Monday, a good citizen of tho
I county said: "Yes, and all the ofjlcers
' should b? elected for four yoars; if
that were tho case, we would have
