Several gentlemen are talking verj

for the purpose of building a commodi

there is any thing that Anderson need
badly, it is a comfortable hotel building
If some prominent man would take th
matter in hand, we believe he could soot
organize a company with sufficient cap!
tal to erect a suitable building. Let u
wake up from our lethargy and display :
little more enterprise and progressive
ness. Such things build up a place. An
derson is growing steadily, the Savannal
Valley Railroad will be completed in an
other year, and tomeetthedemaudsofth
inoreasing travel, we must and will hav
a big hotel. Who will take the lead ii
this enterprise? This Fall would be th
most favorable time for organizing th
company._
A Train Wrecked.
The up-passonger train was wreckod t
a point about five miles below this citj
near Broadaway trestle, last Friday nigh
lt was the day set apart for the gran
Summer excursion from the low-countr
to the mountains, and there wero betwee
two andthree hundred passengersaboan
On aoconnt of tho heavy load the trai
had gotten an hour or two behind tim
The greater portion of the track b
tween Belton and Broadaway trestle is <
the old flange tren laid upon stringer
Engineer Carter was in charge of tl
train, which was composed of B?X cai
and, knowing that be was off of tl
schedule, moved along very cautious
over this portion of the Road, runnin
he thinks, at the rate of about fi ftc;
milos an hour. He felt his engine atril
what he believed to be a "snake-head,"
term applied to a loose joint. The on pi:
and mail car passed over safely, b
when the smoking car struck it the ora
came, and In a twinkling of an eye t
smoking car together with the four pi
songer cars were wreckod. The Soo
side of the track for tho whole longth
the wrecked cars was torn almost coi
pletely away. One pair of truoka of ea
car, at one or tho other end, were d
plaoed and that end thrown to the grout
Tho cars were thrown almost across t
track, in a zigzag shape, though rema:
lng intact and not turning over. T
passengers were considerably shaken t
but, strange to say, bot a singlo ono ti
hort.
Aa soon as Conductor Smith found tl
no one was injured, he dipatched the ?
glne and mail car to thia city, whore
obtained thur box cars and returned
the wreck. " it_
The news soon spread over the cl
and qoite a crowd gathered at the dep
all eager to learn the particular* of I
wreck, as several of our citizen? were
pecticg friends on the train.
We returned with the train to the soe
Arriving there wo found the passeng
setting around camp Ares, patiently wi
lng, ?nd doubtless feeling thankful t
they had made such a narrow eses
Their countenances, however, indica
plainly that they would not venture s<
on ?notner excursion. A? we

one was injured. Indeed, lt seemed a
Providence had taken special care
them. It wa? almply remarkable tba
one was hurt. Wo doubt if the like
ever occurred before.
The paaeengers *nd baggage were *
transferred, and the train on ita i

o'clock? -

dark Saturday afternoon tho wreck bad
been sufficiently cleared to allow tho reg
ular train to pass.
It 1? said by thore who know that thia
la the third accideut which bas occurred
near thia same place within tho past BCV*
eral year?. To go there aud look at that
old flange iron one would be surprised
that there are not more trains wrecked.
Tho Company should take all this old
flaDge iron up and roplace it with more
modem rails aa soon as possible.
The City Council.
Tho new City Council was sworn in
last Friday and immediately took tho
reins of tho city government In band.
Tho old Council lea tho treasury empty.
With this fact in view, the new Council
determined,- in order to koop out of debt
aa much as possible, to cut down ex
penses. Accordingly, tho hr:it step in this
dlrectlou waa a r?duction of tho salaries
of the various officers in their employ,
amounting in tho ag),regate to $550.00 a
year. The following officers woro then
elected :
Clerk and Treasurer-W. 8. Brown.
Chief of Police-Joseph ll. Fant.
1st Assistant Policeman-lt. F. Mc
Kinney.
2nd Assistant Policeman and Engineer
of Firo Department-C. C. Cummings.
3rd Assistant Policeman and Street
Ovorsoor-P. A. Spellman.
Tbeso gentlemen were in tho employ of
tho old Council, and their retention by
tbe now Council shows that they aro effi
cient, reliablo and trustworthy officors.
Mayor Tolly then announced the fol
lowing standing committees :
On 8lreota-J. M. Payno, J. L. Farmer
and P. M. Murphy.
Ways aud Means-B. F. Mauldin, J. S.
Fowler and J. L. Farmor.
Health-Foster Fant, B. F. Mauldin
and P. M. Murphy.
Fire Department - J. S. Fowlor, Foster
Fant and J. M. Payne.
Tho new Council will necessarily be re
(tilctod in their publio work until nf tor
tho next taxes have boen collected, but
no public enterprise tn wbloh the city ls
interested will be permitted to lag.
To the Voter* ot Anderson County.
We hsv? read v.ilh kugrat the card of
Col. J. N, Brown, in which ho saya be ls
no longer a candidato for a Beat in our
State Legislaturo.
In our judgment, tho peoplo could
send no man in this County to the Legis
lature who could do moro good for the
whole peoplo than Col. Brown. We con
sider him an honest and able christian
gentleman, and one who understands thc
condition and needs of our County and
State, and one who has the ability to rep
resent bis follow-cltiaens well in every
particular. Ho eau do as much or more
to correct tho evils now existing in our
laws, and to holp make better and more
wholesome ones to moot the wants of tbe
people, as any man that can bc elected.
Wo are all vitally interested in having
men olected to the next Legislature who
aro good financiers, BO an to be able to
make the best arrangements about the
future settlement of our State debt, with
out greatly increasing our already high
taxes. Also men who will guard against
oxcersive appropriations for tho .State
House, Canals and othor things which
will come before them.
We know of no man in the County who
could and would meet these demand",
and fight for low taxes with greater abil
ity and foresight thau Col. J. N. Brown.
If you want low taxes Bond somo mon
to the Legislature who aro largo tax pay
ers themselves, for it is human nature for
them to advocate and fight for low taxos
with more vigor than the men who pay
little or nono. For these, and many
other reasons, it ls to bo hoped, and the
voters of Anderson County are earnestly
Bolicited, to support and elect Col. Brown,
notwithstanding bis withdrawal. Wo
feel satisfied that if be is called by the
people, he will ably nervo them.
Let lt be said, in fact, that this timo the
office has sought Um man and not th?
man the ouice.

ANOTHER RESCUE raox DKATU.-In 1881
?vii ilo sewing oa a machine, my wife ? .is
Aken with a severe pain in her side, which
iras soon followed by hemorrhages from
tier lungs, severe cough, fever, and she
?uld neither eat or sleep, and in a few
weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton.
Uer stomach refused to retain any food, and
he physician thought one of her lungs waa
mtirely gono. At a final consultation of
two physicians her case was pronounced
hopeless. I tried Brewer's Lung Restorer
>y advice of one of the physicians, and abo
began to Improve after tue third dose. She
xmtinued the medicine, and Is now ia ex
cellent health, and ls better than she has
been in several years. 1 believe Brewer's
Lung Hestorer saved her lifo.
