Anderson Douglass, a well-known negro
of this city, died suddenly near Hartwell,
Ga., last Saturday morning. He left An*
derson Friday in bis usual health, and
bad gone to Hartwell to collect some
wages which were due two of bis boys,
who were working over there. On Satur?
day morning, while walking a road lead?
ing from Hartwell, he was seen by a ne?
gro to stagger and fall to the ground.
This negro called to his assistance several
persons and went to Douglass, who they
found dead in a ditch. An inquest was
held over the body, and the verdict of tho
jury was that heart disease caused his
death. Douglass' remains were brought
to Anderson and buried.
Next Saturday night "Dr. Bill," will be
the attraction in the Opera House. The
comedy was rendered in Columbia Mon?
day night, and in speaking of it the State
says: "The merry comedy of *Dr. Bill.'
which was given last uight at the Opera
House for the first time in Columbia,
proved to be one of the most laughable
comedies ever seen here, and the company
that presented it was also a competent one
in every particular. Its object, of course,
is to make people laugh, and the lines on
which it is constructed and put together
certainly engenders as much mirth as most
folks are capable of indulging in. That it
has 'a roar in every sentence, a shout in
every situation, and an unrestrained howl
in every scene,' those who saw the play
will doubtless readily admit." Popular
prices of admission. Tickets may be se?
cured at Gossett's Shoe Store.
The announcement of the death of Mrs.
Emmala R. Miller, widow of the late
George W. Miller, which occurred at her
home in this city last Friday afternoon,
was a great shock to her friends and ac?
quaintances. She had been in feeble
health for several weeks, but her condition
created no uneasiness until a few days
preceding her death when she complained
of some heart trouble, which grew worse
and caused her death. Mrs. Miller was
about 50 years of age, and was the eldest
daughter of the late Judge J. P. Reed. In
her young womanhood she graduated
from the old Johnson Female University,
I and, being possessed of a bright, genial
disposition, was very popular with her
friends and associates. She was endowed
with remarkable musical talent, and had
few equals as a pianist. She also possess?
ed a sweet, rich voioe, and it was always
a treat to hear her sing. Mrs. Miller sur?
vived her husband only about four
months, and five children?three sons and
two daughters?are left to cherish tbe
memory of a devoted mother. The two
oldest sons reside in New York. They
were ootified of their mother's death, and
reached Anderson on Sunday in time to
attend her funeral. Mrs. Miller bad long
been a member of the Baptist Church.
On Sunday afternoon the funeral services
were held in the Baptist Cburcb, being
conducted by Rev. O. L. Martin, assisted
by Dr. Friereon. The Church was crowd?
ed with tbe friends and acquaintances of
tbe deceased, and the occasion was an ex?
ceedingly sad one, there scarcely being a
dry eye in the whole congregation. At tbe
conclusion of tbe services the remains
were laid to rest in the Churchyard be?
side those of ber husband. Tbe grief
stricken orphans have the sympathy of our
entire people in their sorrow.
Mr. lltll Declined to be Dispenser.
Mr. R. S. Hill received a communica?
tion from Secretary of State Tindal last
Wednesday evening informing him that
on having tbe bond enclosed properly
filled out and returned Governor Tillraan
would send him a commission as State
Dispenser of liquors under tho Evans law.
The communication was a surprise to
Mr. Hill, and he decided immediately
that be could not accept the position.
He knew be bad been recommended to tbe
Governor for appointment by some of his
friends, but as ha hud refused to become
an applicant for the job he supposed the
Governor knew that he could not become
Dispenser, end therefore would not ap?
point bim.
Mr- Hill declined the eppolntment in
tbe following letter:
Anderson, S. C, Jan. 25,1892:
?'Hon. J. E. Tindall, Secretary of State :
"Dear Sir: Your valued favor of the
24th inbtaDt just to band, informing me
of my appointment by His Excellency,
the" Governor, as State Liquor Commis?
sioner.
"Apart from any other consideration,
tbe small compensation attached to the
office, compared with the salary I am now
receiving, would necessitate my very re?
spectfully declining tbe honor. Request?
ing that you will convey to His Excel?
lency, tbe Governor, my aesnrance of a
high appreciation of his compliment, I
am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient
servant. R 8. Hill/'
The appointment was complimentary to
Mr. Hill, and bad be seen fit to accept he
would have brought much business tact,
experience and energy to bear on the
business.
Gov. Tillman doubtlessly hoped that
Mr. Hill would accept the position, but
be muit have felt pretty sure that be
would not, if be was informed of tbe facto,
for Mr. Bill's mercantile interest and tbe
duties of tho Presidency of the Farmer?'
and Merchants' Bmk demand all his
time aud pay him much better than is tbe
salary .provided for the Dispenser. It
would seem, therefore, that tbe Governor
was playing for time as well as trying to
flatter Mr. Hill into becoming chief bar?
keeper of the Stai? with all its attendant
responsibilities und drawbacks,
It is stated that there are numerous ap?
plicants for tho place Mr. Hill refused
wirb thanks. \
S<>me months ago tbe Governor request?
ed Dr. W. H. Nardin to accept the Super
intendency of tbe Asylum. The Doctor*
declined with thanks. Tbe talents and
integrity of Anderson's citizens are
known and admired abroad, and their
services are in demand, but'they affirm by
prompt refusals of proffered places of
of honor and emolument that Anderson is
tbe best place to live and do business.

As the public in general is acquainted
with the happenings around this place, it
is hardly worth time to go into the details
of them.
The farmers are "rousing" from their
few weeks' slumber, and are preparing to
go to work again. Another source of
great pleasure.
It8eemsthat everybody is anxious to
see spring open after such a "raw" winter.
I But isn't the Evans Bill a monster ? It
does look like an honest man in the posi?
tion of Senator or Representative could
just as well introduce a bill that would
utterly abolish all forms of liquor dealing
?that is, if he wishes to comply with the
wishes of those that put him there. How
easily people are deceived by the "gab" of
those "hoggish" kind. This world is full
ofthat kind, though. Money is the sole
object of their motives, and not the welfare
of the people. Can you not see men every
day adorned with a red nose, brought on
by the constant use of that infernal "liquid
of destruction," and it could be annihila?
ted if those men in earnest would go to
work and not stand like so many dead
stumps. Those legislator who were so
fortunate as to steal the votes of the poor
men?who had so much confidence in
what was promised?by being able to
keep a veil over a grand, selfish desire, are
nearing a grand fall politically, which will
so maim them that it will be impossible
ever to raise any more. The same case of
which Judas is guilty will apply to them
very well. They have betrayed their
country, lost their influence, robbed the
innocent men of their vote and an honest
man of an office which no other kind of
men should be allowed to hold. This
Dispensary law in just taking a sorry team
fivm the pole and putting in one better.
A man that wants liquor is going to have
it if it is iu reach, aud if this law comes
into elTect there will be just as much of
the "stuff" as ever. Why don't we vote
the prohibition ticket, and stick to it, and
nothing else?

'Don't you think a man that will "play
off' sick just because a neighbor wants
him to help him and is afraid there ie no
money with which to pay for bis trouble,
:1s not on the railroad for a better home ?
This is the case with some of our people,
we fear.
A man that considers himself above
speakiDg to his poor neighbor just be?
cause be is poor is none too high to step
on the bottom step of the bottomless p.t of
the devil, without much of a "step off*
