Gov. John B. 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.

Harness, and save me the trouble and
yourself the cost of a collection by law.

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.
