Gordon, of Georgia, was /..V'elected to the United States Senate on last Tuesday by the Legislature of that State, to succeed Hon. Joseph E. Brown, ^if-Swho declined re-election. The great question now is who will be Speaker of the 52nd Congress. Among those more prominently mentioned for the position axe Crisp, of Georgia, By num, of Indiana, Mills, of Texas, Flow? er, of New York, and Breckinridge, of Kentucky. We would like to see Crisp, of''Georgia, in the speaker's chair, but bat think it would be better for the party to elect a Western man to that position, and that man should be Bynum, of Indi? ana. _ _ _ : . It has been decided that the inaugural ceremonies of Gov. Tillmau and the ?s':'<? other State officers will be held in Co? lumbia about December 4. Col. Irby has made arrangements with the railroads to pass those wishing to be present, at State ?1 fair rates. A platform, large enough to - T hold the members of the General Assem bly, will be built in front of the, capitol, ?1; and the ceremony will be held where all can see and hear. Col. Irby expects that there will be some 10,000 persons pres? ent. Capt. Tillman will remain iu Co j^V lumbia from the convening of the General Assembly._ ? " The merchants of Anderson are doing &c- ;all in their power to draw trade to this / f- - place, and thereby build up our city. ; They have large stocks of goods, and sell them at reasonable prices. No one need leave Anderson with the complaint that they cannot- get the worth of their ^ ' J. money in goodB of any kind. Competi ; tion is very sharp, and that brings prices down to the lowest possible price. But '^5 r there are some who grumble and com plain at the very idea of buying goods v| -at any price. Still there are others who ? , ; always seem willing to give a fair price for what they want to buy. Even the most complaining can find what they lll^want here at reasonable prices. The merchants also are paying the very top of the market for cotton, and are not iu any way connected with the low price of cotton just now. They can only pay for "it according to what they can get for it. ? Others may say and think as they please, ? but we shall stand up for our merchants ^ - as honest, fair business men. If all the reports from Berlin are true, Professor Koch has discovered a Proven? s'-1': ventive and a cure for consumption, - Naturally people will have their doubts, ? for the news is apparently too good to be true, but the fact that the German em? peror has personally given the professor $200,000, and has recommended the ap ;rv I propriatiou of a large sum of money to enable him to prosecute his experiments, ; { would'seem to make it tolerably certain ^ v ^ that the new discovery is all that is : claimed for it. -There is reason to hope _ that the remedy really destroys the bacil Ins of consumption. The effect will be practically to abolish the disease, and save millions of human lives every year. It iB hard to have complete faith in the professor until farther developments, but ^ y the progress of medical science has ac >~.":: complished so- much that it would take a very bold man to fix its limits, and set bounds to its advancement. Then the rlv'-'V'jifact that the German emperor gave Koch ~^iaijjuarter of a million dollars means -^V%^80^ejQiiiig.- .-' He. is not in the habit oJ 70^i^ throwing.away his cash. Money talks. ?V" The Atlanta Constitution says there is J^ XtsGll some talk about the force bill in certain quarters. At the December ses? sion It will be possible for the Republi can, majority in Congress to pass the : r Lodge bill, and perhaps even make ap? propriations to secure its enforcement, All this is possible, but it is hardly ^ f probable. The Republican Congressmen . - arg now well satisfied that the people oi the Country.do not demand such a meas? ure, and in fact are opposed to it. With the masses clamoring for peace, it is not likely that their, representatives will vote \ 'for a bayonet election law. But, under the circumstances, the placing of this Ibill on the statute books would amount > ;ta nothing. It would be a dead letter. !-;;With public opinion solidly against it, ^r;andeyery prospect of the election of a ^?^'Itemocratic President in 1892, the afc ? ' ? tempt to enforce bayonet control of the -'ballot box would be a failure. The ?r. 'l ' Xi?dge bill is dead. It may be galvanized C into spasmodic action in December, but it will only stagger about for a while and Tf^then collapse. To all intents and pur ' poses the thing is dead. This year completes a century since Dr. Franklin signed the first petition that was presented to Congress for the aboli? tion of slavery, and two years hence will ' end .the century since Eli Whitney in vented the cotton gin. The machine v enabled the grower to clean for market a 5* 'thoosaod pounds of cotton daily instead -\of-nve orsix. In 1791 the export of cot r. ' ton was 189,500 pounds. In 1808, by means of Whitney's gin, it had risen to more than 41,000,000. The machine was ' the great ally of Blavery, and the War? wick of King Cotton. No industrial in? vention ever wrought so much wrong and did bo much mischief. It was the chief . of the causes that arrested the antiBiavery movement that followed the Revolution, and was more persuasive than the ef? forts of Dr. Franklin and hi3 society. Whitney's gin cleaned the cotton. A : tnew' invention will pick it. The other day, at the Memphis Cotton Exchange, a bale of cotton was placed on exhibition which was the first ever picked by ma? chinery. The inventor asserts that it _ will do the work of fifty men. And if he be correct, the Memphis Avalanche .: v" says that "the negro question is solved, ^?rTand.he" will have to seek for employment ?0'-elsewhere." The popular valid objection k against the colonizing of the negro has " been 'that he was essential to the gather? ing^ the cotton crop. It would be a sf??^^niarkable/ac.Hf the century that began ??f wfi?f^" Invention which doomed the ^ V ^negro-tO Blaverj' should end with another trV'-'-tiiat- makes his labor valueless. The r .conclusion of ttieTAvalanche, however, is ' ? ^tP? sweeping a generalization. Laborers I^.jWill itill be wanted in the cotton States, > Teven if cotton picking should be done by ; ^niachlhery, and there is the other fact "iyjji^t-&e^ttachment to the soil on the 'part of this particular laborer is very r -^loseand clinging. The deportation of, a great and unwilling free population ia j not a reasonable proposition. Since the 1 war there has been no obstruction to the exodus of the negro from his home if he desired to go. But there has been no such exodus, and no sign of a general disposition to go. Poverty has, of course, detained him, but not against his will. Nevertheless, the fact recorded by the Avalanche ia very interesting and sugges? tive. _ As an exchange truly says, there are some who never seem to believe them? selves capable of anything; they see others press forward to attempt aud achieve and shrink back into a despond? ing inactivity. Having no faith in themselves they undertake nothing and effect nothing. If they are convicted of some fault or bad habit they have so lit? tle hope of beingable to cure it that they scarcely make an effort. If some avenue of usefulness and honor openfPUp before them they draw back, almost sure that they should not succeed, and decline to enter. If some duty presses urgently upon their conscience they try to quit its promptings by pleading inability. Thus their lives pass away iu uselessness, their faculties do not develope or their charac? ters improve, -their abilities are wasted, they dwindle into insignificance, and all this, not for lack of power, but for the want of a confidence and courage that would Bet that power into good practical working power. The Washington Post says the indus? trial development of the South duriug the last ten or fifteen years has been the most interesting feature of our national growth. It may be doubted if, in any age or country, its parallel has been wit? nessed. The authentic statements of the industrial growth of that section, as tbey have been published from year to year, have attracted world-wide attention and excited a profound interest, an interest not confined to business circles, but ex? tending to all intelligent observers of public events. Eecognizing the univer? sality of this feeling, the management of Public Opinion has decided to offer prizes , of $50, $30 and $20 for the best three essays on "The Industrial Future of the South." It is a great theme?bo great that only a broad mind can comprehend it; but, inasmuch as it has been fre? quently and ably discussed in the press of all sections, and in many commercial conventions, it is reasonable to suppose that the invitation of Public Opinion will call out a large number of valuable pa? pers,- throwing new light on a topic thai is becoming more and more attractive to all citizens whose patriotism ia not limi? ted to any one part of our common conn* try. I WHO SHALL BE OUR SENATOR f Mb. Editor : One of the most impor? tant acts which the Legislature about to I assemble will be called upon to perform, is the selection of a United States Sena? tor to succeed Governor Hampton. It h I important, with the view of obtaining s competent representative?one who will , not only reflect credit on the State, bul one who will be some real service to the people of the State and of the South. A wise selection is important at this time, because by that act the new Legis I lature will demonstrate who tbey propose | to select for their officers, real representa? tives of the interest of the people, oi : mere party hacks or beat-out politicians. ^ They should select a man of character, firmness and ability?a man who bnowc ' and will maintain the rights of the peo . pie?a conservative man, who will satiefy all classes. Anderson County suggests j for that position James L. Orr, and man3 . beyond her borders believe that he fill; j the bill, and that his selection will giy? more general satisfaction than the selec | tion of any other man ia South Caroli i na. In 1874, when our County had been in the bands of the Republicans for sis , years, he, only 22 years old, did gallan! , service for both the County and State and when the Mackey House had to be captured by force, if necessary, he wat , selected as chairman, and, at the head o , the column, with bis own hands, forcec open the door, which was guarded bj . twenty-rive of the State constables, anc i held it open until the whole Wallace i House went in. In the memorable ser? vice of 1876-77, he was conspicuous foi his energy and ability in setting the State . on her feet again. In the discharge oi his duty as Solicitor he gave universal satisfaction, being firm, zealous, courte? ous and able. . Though it was believed by many that he could have made the atrongest race against Capt. Tillman, he refused to op? pose the movement, and when the anti Tillman conference was held in August, it was hiB eloquence and influence that contributed largely to the result. He is not a politician or office seeker, but if selected will serve the people more faithfully than any man in the State. - Tillman Man. ? It is said that more tobacco and al? coholic liquors were used during the last three months than ever before in this country. Such, at least, is the report of the Internal Revenue Department, which shows, according to an estimate made by the New York News, an increase in reve? nue from these articles for the months of July and August of over one million and three-quarter dollars, compared with the same period last year. In reference to alcohol, it may be remarked that there has been greater activity than usual in the manufacture of articles of which it is an ingredient. ? District Attorney George D. Rey? nolds, of St. Louis, thinks the public is not sufficiently advised in regard to the important provision of the lottery bill which applies to the purchaser of tickets. Every purchaser of a lottery ticket of an agent, or through the mails, violates the law and puts himself in the power of the company, and he may be compelled to continue his purchases under a threat of exposure. This, of course, applies only to persons who have bought tickets since the enactmert of the law, September 1G, 1890. ? Mrs. Mary Walter, of Easton, Pa., born November 5, 1790, is a wonder to the younger people over there, as she rises regularly at 6:30, attends to her own wauts, and does not think it a feat to walk a mile. She has a good appetite, and says she never has occasion for med? icine. Her husband was a revolutionary soldier, and one who put in the memora? ble winter at Valley Forge with Wash? ington, and with him crossed the Dela? ware. ? Mr. W. D. Battle, of Sumter county, Ala., has on exhibition at the Birming? ham fair, the largest hog on earth. He is 28 months old, a red Jersey, stands 3 feet 9 inches high, is 9 feet 6}' inches in length, is 7 feet 4 inches around the girth, measures 2 feet 11 across the back, and II inches between the hock and ankle. His weight is about 1,500 pounds. ? Twenty-two years ago a marble cut? ter of Chicago engraved his own tomb? stone, leaving a blank for the proper date of death. Last week he became tired of waiting for death and sold the slab to a woman who wanted a fancy door step. Why couldn't he have hung himself? ?? There are as many as 556 light houses round the coast of the United States. ?? There are seven or eight negroes in Texas, most of them ex-slaves, who are worth about ten thousand dollars each. ? During the past seventy-three years the American Bible Society has distribu? ted over 52,736,000 copies of the Scrip? ture. ?It is said that for more than fifty years ?355, which was originally intended lo be applied to the education of slaves in Georgia, has been lying in the Bank of Scotland. ? The bed of the Feather River in California, which is being laid bare, will yield from ?10,000,000 to $15,000,000 of gold if the ground proves as rich as that which has been worked. ? If a woman were as careful select? ing a husband to match her disposition as she is in selecting a dress to match her complexion, there would be fewer un? happy marriages than there are. ? A Connecticut boy is famous just now, because he has a tin whistle one and a half inches in diameter and several inches long in his stomach. He swallow lowed the toy while playing on it. ? The death rate among the Indians who aim to live liko white people is three times that of those who continue to live a semi-wild life. The Pawnee Tribe has lost more men by lung troubles in the last ten years than they lost in battle during the previous thirty. ? Mr3. Elizabeth Bell of Spartanburg County is 82 years old. Not wishing to be idle this fall she went to the cotton field and picked 400 pounds. Meantime she knit five pairs of socks. If there is another woman over fourscore years who can beat her, we would like to hear from her. ? Africa has now at work within her borders 10 American, 12 British and 12 Continental missionary societies. There are more than 700 ordained missionaries and more than 7,000 native preachers. It is estimated that there are, both white and native, about 175,000 communicants and 800,000 adherents. ? Mr. R, J. Willis, of Troup County, Ga, boasts a prolific sow. She is a large Guinea and Berkshire cross. On May 14, 1889, she gave Mr. Willis eleven pigs; on February 7,1890, she gave him fourteen pigs, and on October 27, 1890, she gave him twelve more, making thirty-seven pigs in seventeen months. ? "Prince" Russell Harrison told a St. Paul Globe man the other day that nobody could rightfully lay blame for the Republican defeat upon "pa's Ad? ministration." He said that the "poor, deluded farmers of the West" did not understand the McKinley bill, but would come to it in another two years. ? A man owned a five foot strip of land in New York city and quarreled with the owner of the adjoining property over the price of it. He then built two houses on the strip, which was a block long. The houses are four stories high, and but three feet wide inside, but have deep bow windows which are utilized for rooms. ? Wyoming has the only female com? pany of regular State militia in the United States. The company was organ? ized to celebrate the date of Wyoming's Statehood, and met with such approval that it was decided to make the organi? zation permanent; and the young ladiee were mustered into the regular service ol the State. ? Recently, at the close of the cele? bration of a Buddhist festival in the pro? vince of Sze-Ohuen, China, a number oi organized mobs attacked several Christian villages, burning the buildings and loot? ing their contents. Twenty native con ? verts to Christianity were killed during the disturbance and their bodies thrown into the Yang-tBe King River. ? A terrible conflagration occurred al Winslow, a town of Pike County, Indl ana, last Friday morning. The whole town had been wiped out of existence, The houses were all frame structures, anc the fire spread with such rapidity that al the efforts of the people to extinguish it proved unvailing. Not a house is lefi standing and 400 people are left withoul homes! ? Mrs. L. A. Norman, of Decatur, III. while in Terre Haute, was informed thai a letter awaited her at the postoffice, anc upon calling for it she was informed thai the missive had been delivered to a lad] of similar name residing in that city Curiosity prompted her to call upon thii Mrs. Norman, and the ladies made th< unwelcome discovery that each bac married Milton A. Norman. He wai arrested. ? Col. A. K. McClure, of the Philadel phia Tinlcs, in a speech at the Southerr Exposition in Montgomery, Ala., declar ed that the recent election, by which i majority of the Northern and Southerr members of Congress were of the samt political faith, meant national peace He said the verdict for peace could noi be set aside unless the dominent party bj excesses gave excuses therefor.

The public will be glad to learn that no house ever established in Anderson has made such a deep and lasting impression on the public mind in such a short time as Flynn. His store is so jammed with eager buyers that the fourteen salesmen and ladies are not sufficient to wait on his trade, and he is now advertising for four more first-class men. He heats any man in the up country buying, and that is the great secret of his success. He claims to sell at five per cent., and no doubt he does. The crowds that fill my store daily are overjoyed to find that they can buy goods at'live per cent, on New York Cost. This is something new for Anderson, and the public appreciate it. D. C. Fltnn.
