record?

The Barnwell Sentinel calls upon the De?
mocracy of that County to adhere strictly
to the straightout platform in making nom?
inations for County officers, and says that
tuecf s* can be won on no other. The Senti?

racy cannot find efficient and trustworthy
men sufficient in its own ranks for the vari?
ous State and County offices it had better
disband. *
Anderson is about as well represented in
Charleston this week as any County in the
State. Large numbers of our citizens, both
from the town and country, left on the train
Tuesday morning, and a goodly number fol?
lowed on Wednesday. We understand the
train was crowded when it left Belton on
Tuesday, and no doubt by the time it
reached Columbia every available spot was
occupied.
The address of ex-Senator Cochran to the
people of Anderson County has been pretty
generally commented upon by the Press of
the State, and as far as we have seen the
comments have been favorable to him. He
is now spoken for the office of United States
Marshal for this State, and is generally pre?
ferred to either Wallace, of Columbia, or
Johnston, of Sumter, at present the strong?
est competitors for the place.
It is with regret that we announce the
death of Mrs. John B. Leverett, which oc?
curred on last Thursday morning, at the
residence of her husband, in Hall town?
ship. She leaves a husband and five little
children, with many friends, to mourn her
death. She had been a consistent member
of the Cross Roads Church'for several years,
and her remains were interred in the grave?
yard at that Chnrch on Friday.
The erection of a telephone between the
main business portion of the town and de?
pot would be a most desirable improvement,
and we would be pleased to see some one
take the matter in hand and secure its erec?
tion. It would be a great advantage to all
those having business with the depot offi?
cials, and compared to the trouble and
laborious walking saved during the hot
summer months, would cost but a trifle.
We desire to tender our sincere thanks to
Mrs. Gen. Humphreys for a dish of deli?
cious strawberries Bent us on Wednesday
morning. The berries were large and lus?
cious and of fine flavor, and were much en?
joyed. Mrs. Humphreys has had straw?
berries regularly for three weeks past, which
fact is in itself sufficient evidence of the
success with which she meets in the culture
of this most delicious and wholesome fruit.
Through the co-operation of the Green?
ville & Columbia Railroad Company, the
Signal Service department at Washington
will, as soon as all necessary arrangements
are perfected, send the daily weather reports

The necessary blanks, etc., have already
been received at the telegraph office at this
place, and as soon as the reports are for?
warded they wiU be bulletined every morn?

The German Artillery of Charleston will
picnic at Walhalla for two or three weeks
in July or August. The company will go
in full uniform, accompanied by a number
of their lady friends and by the famous
Fusillier Band; After storming the town
of WalhaUa, they will establish their head
quariers at that place, and leaving the ladies
and impediments within the corporate lim?
its, will make a sortie into the mountain
fastnesses of the Blue Ridge.
' The lock on the safe in the Anderson
National Bank has recently been improved
by the addition of a time lock attachment,
which is considered a very great advantage
in the way of increasing the security of the
safe against burglars. The machinery of
the attachment is of the very finest watch
works, and is so constructed that it cannot
be thrown out of gear by a jolt or blow from
the outside. The principle advantage of
the attachment consists in this, that when
the safe is closed to be opened at a certain
hour it cannot under any circumstances be
opened before that hour arrives. The long?
est time for which it will remain locked at
any one time is forty-eight hours. The at?
tachment cost $350.
The biggest hog story that has come to
our ears in a long time was related to us on
Monday by a citizen of the Store vi 1 le neigh?
borhood, the correctness of which he vouch?
es for. It is this: On Sunday, the 18th of
January last, a hog, weighing about 175
pounds, fell into a well, in which there was
neither water nor food, and there remained
until last Saturday morning, the 17th of
April, exactly ninety days, when it was ac?
cidentally discovered by some children.
When taken out it was found to be still
alive, and had suffered no injury whatever
except the loss of about 75 pounds of flesh.
The bog is of the Guinea variety, and had
been missing since that morning, and was
seen near the well for the last time.
We take the following account of the
wash out on the Air Line Railroad by the
recent heavy rains near Currehee mountair,
on a little stream called North Broad, ordi?
narily not larger than a spring branch, from
the Pick ens Sentinel: "The embankment
was 105 feet high and 400 feet of it was car?
ried away. The authorities of the road had
taken the precaution to cut down all the
trees and collect every chunk and brush in
the field above the road, through which the
small streams runs, in order to prevent the
choking up of the culvert and the darning
up of the water during heavy rains. But
the rain that did this damage was so terrific
that no human foresight could prevent it.
The trees and saplings in the woods were
washed up by the roote, and carried down
into the culvert; choked it up and prevent?
ed the passage of the water. The water
stood in a kind of basin, covering six or
eight acres of ground and to the depth of
seventy-one feet. The volume of water
was so powerful that the embankment
could not resist its weight and was carried
away with a tremendous clash, carrying
destruction to timber and everything else
that came in its way below. The transfer
of passengers and baggage was made in ve?
hicles around the mountain, a distance of
three or four miles." In addition to this
wash-out there were twelve or thirteen
others, and all within a distance of two
miles.

Plea for an Enjrlne.
Mb. Editor : The result of the meeting
recently held to consider the propriety of
the Town Council purchasing a fire appa?
ratus but illustrates the utter futility of
such a procedure. Whilst the motive that
prompted the Town Council to call the
meeting is not impugned, yet its expediency
and the necessity for it is questioned.
The need of a fire apparatus of some kind
is known and felt by all. This being true,
why leave the selection of a particular kind
to a meeting composed of men differing as
much in preference and opinion as they do
in their faces. Can any definite conclusion
be reached? The Council can't comply
with the wants of all the taxpayers, and,
judging from the meeting referred to, they
will not become reconciled to any other
apparatus than their own personal prefer?
ence, and hence the impossibility of accom?
plishing what was intended by the meeting.
So the call of the meeting for the purpose
designated was not expedient.
The citizens of tne Town every year elect
a Council to""prcside over a:ad protect the
interests of the Town. They are presumed
to be men in whose ability and good judg?
ment they have the utmost confidence, or
else they would not occupy the positions.
Why then should they consult the will of
the people about that which in their own
judgment is a necessity, and which comes
clearly within the province of their duties,
namely, the protection of the property of
the Town. It is certainly not expected of
them, if so we had better abolish the sys?
tem, and let the Town government be man?
aged directly by the people; but I don't be?
lieve that a majority of the taxpayers desire
to be consulted about such matters, and
having placed the reins of Town govern?
ment in the hands of the Council, they are
willing to leave them there. The Town
Council have the right, and should consult
their own judgment as to their duties, and,
having done so, they can rest satisfied, con?
scious of duty done, and have the assurance
that the people, if dissatisfied, can have re?
dress at the ballot-box. There was then no
real necessity for the meeting.
Our Town is utterly destitute of any
means to extinguish fire, and, I might say,
destitute of the hope of ever securing effec?
tive means, if the Council are to be gov?
erned by the results of said meeting. It is
to be hoped that such will not be the case.
The meeting was attended by not more than
one-third of the property-holders, and only
four of these expressed any opinion. It
was comparatively a failure, and the
whole matter should remain in the hands
of the Council, who have the authority to
act, guided, of course, by their best judg?
ment. They have during the past two
terms managed the affairs of the Town with
great credit to themselves and to the Town.
They have reduced taxation fitly per cent.;
relieved themselves of all indebtedness;
plaoad the walks and streets of the Town in
splendid condition, and, as the next Town
election is near at hand, if they are to give
place to others, how fitting it would be to
leave to the Town a magnificent fire engine
as a monument of their usefulness and as a
means of securing protection to the lives
and property of its citizens.

A Suggestion to our Representatives.
Mr. Editor: The address of Hon. John
R. Cochran to the people of Anderson in
your issue before the last is full of interest,
and we are agreeably surprised to know
that Colonel Cochran had the nerve, under
such tryiug circumstances, to battle for the
right at all times and under all circumstan?
ces, regardless of party feeling, only consid?
ering his duty to those he represented and
the welfare of the State. This detailed ac?
count; of his stewardship in both branches
of the General Assembly suggests the pro?
priety of all of our Representatives favor?
ing the people with a similar document. If
for no other reason, that we might act ad?
visedly in the coming election. Will not
some others let us see what of 'their stew?
ardship. Anderson.

Anderson's Prosperity.
Within a short time Politics will be en?
gaging all of our attention, and we desire
beforehand to give a sketch of Anderson
generally and its principal Business espe?
cially. However, it is no small matter to
form an exact estimate to what extent busi?
ness really has increased in this town with?
in the last fow years. It is true we have
ntatistics of cotton shipments, but that is all
and at the same time inadequate. The best
criterion we think is the number of new
business houses that have been opened, the
way the town has generally improved, and
the great demand for houses. With the
Blue Ridge Railroad completed, there is no
doubt of Anderson's assured success and the
position she will hold as the leading market
in upper South Carolina. In the Fall of
1875 quite an addition was made?one of
untold benefit?a permanent and lasting
improvement?the opening of what is pop?
ularly called the " New York Cash Store."
The proprietors, Messrs. Arnstein & Rose,
entered heartily upon the work, and haye
every reason to be proud of their great suc?
cess. They had confidence in themselves,
and in the South; they knew that by hon?
est efforts a trade could be built up as no
other house ever enjoyed; they brought
with them northern energy and persistency;
they had all the advantages that possibly
could be wanted for success?capital, tho?
rough understanding of business, energy,
and a practical knowledge of the New York
maket. They soon became known as men
worthy of every confidence, men who came
with the fixed determination to stay, and
our people were not slow in partaking liber?
ally of the advantages the New York Cash
Store offered. Their system is strictly cash,
and anyone who ever had the misfortune of
buying on a credit can at a glance tell the
advantages and the result?low prices. This
town is very much indebted to that enter?
prising house for really low prices and a
large assortment of goods. Every year their
trade has wonderfully increased, and so lias
their stock proportionately, and it is but
justice to them to say that at present it is the
largest that ever was shown in the up-coun?
try. Their elegantly fixed up store presents
the appearance of a wholesale warehouse?
piles of goods everywhere, every inch util?
ized up to the very ceiling, shelves are laden
and the middle counters filled. We have
no doubt but what every man, woman and
child in the county has been in that estab?
lishment. Their way of selling is plain and
straightforward, their prices ?for various
reasons?so very reasonable, that no one
can wonder at their immense trade. Every]
body goes to the New York Cash Store, be
cause they can find what they want, and
are waited on nicely and get the lowest pos?
sible prices. The ladies fully appreciate
this house, for it supplies their wants, from
a pin to the finest silk, from a common slip?
per at 50 cents to the finest French kid but?
ton, all kinds of fancy goods and notions at
a Bmall advance above New York cost?
what only a cash house can do. To the
gentlemen this house needs no introduction
from us. It is recognized as headquarters
for ready-made and made-to-order clothing,
fine furnishing goods, nobby hats and shoes
of all kinds. We may give an idea of their
enterprise when we state that they sell the
best and prettiest calicoes for only 7 cents,
when they are worth to-day at wholesale in
New York 8 cents. They bought them soon
and give their patrons the benefit of it.
That kind of advertising?selling goods
cheap ? has paid them handsomely, and
they intend to adhere to it. Messrs. Arn?
stein and Rose, Robert C. Webb, M, J.
Hoek and R. C. Cunningham are pleasant
and agreeable gentlemen and delight in
showing goods and pleasing customers.?
Everybody will do well by heeding our ad?
vice, " Be surt to go to the New York Cash
Store."

And in fact, all other kinds of Summer Dress Goods, from 5c. up to the most costly goods
that can be bonght, or that any lady could want or wear.

Having bought the majority of my Goods early in the season, everybody will know I
bought them low. So persons wishing to secure good bargains will give me a call. My
motto is to sell them low and they are sure to go.
