There is but ouc thought upper most in the minds of the American people just now, and that is how can wc best and most efficiently stamp out thc anarchists in this country. Anderson is now ripe for another manufacturing enterprise, and we must have it. Suppose we try a knit ting mill and cotton rope manufac tory combined. We see it stated ihat $25,000 would be sufficient for such an enterprise. Who will take the lead iu organizing a company? Tho money, wc believe, cnn h<" easily cb tained. The Columbia h'< ( ->,?<> is the author ial, for the statement that the Colum bia Ten?ale Co .lege may ho moved to some other city where the local pat ronage will be larger. If this state ment be true, Anderson should offer sufficient inducements to secure thc College. We need just such an in stitution, and an effort should bc made to get it. imm mt - In commenting upon thc succession of 1'rcsidcut Roosevelt to the office of chief executivo of thc United StatcH, thc St. Louis (??oin ? Democrat ob serves that a new epoch has been inau gurated iu the presidential office and that hereafter it is more than likely that a war record in thc late sectional unpleasantness will no longer he re quisite to election to thc highest office in thc gift of tho nation. - 'i ? - - Elaborate experiments in feeding wheat to farm animals and swine have been made this year at the Kansas Experiment 8tation. and also in other States of tho corn belt. The experts conclude that wheat has greater nutri tive value than corn, and may bo used either crushed, mixed with oats or corn, or in connection with straw in time of extreme scarcity. Tho drought in Kansas has not affected the whe&.t <*mp; and many farriers will bo compelled either to usc their wheat as fodder or sacrifice their live stock. It is pointed out that President Roosevolt is tho first President io half a century that has not oithnr been a participant in the civil war or who went through tho torrible soono at an age when the mind would be indellibly impressed with the heat,x soars and strife of that terrible struggle. The President represents a new generation. One of his ohiof qualifications is his well known friendly feeling towards the South. President Roosevelt's uncle distinguished himself as a Con feder?lo soldier, Ins mother being from Georgia. Many of the gallant fighters he took to Cuba wore South erners. It is well known that he has a very decided friendliness to thc South. It is also recalled that ho considered General Leo tho greatest military leader thc English speaking race ever produced. mum . m** - Every day on our streets may bo soon young men who are floundering about, ignorant of a trade or profes sion and no business training. Most times theso aro men eminently capa ble of learning whatever they would set their heads to learn, but they are throwing away their time, stunting their mental capacities by disuse until they will find themselves ac! -if t in a busy world with no knowledge of busi ness, and their only support for a liv ing will be a chance day's labor. Pa rents who ncgleot their boy's business training and fail to prepare him for an aotive place in the world arc laying up for themselves a heavy share of blame. A boy really ought to be put to work the timo ho is 12 years old and be mado to realizo the value of a dollar. Habit is bccond nature, and if chil dren are taught to bo industrious early in life they will have a fondness for it. A law ought to be passed fixing the status of dead beats. A man who hires another and faita to pay him or purohasc goods or Anything of value from our merchants or other business men without any intention of paying -or never pays-is guilty of fraud. The ?aw treats as a thief ino man who secures money or goods by false pre tenso or takes them by stealth. The dead beat ought to be treated the samo way for he in fact belongs to that same class. By tho unwritten law of trade and commerce he maker false statements with fraudulent in tent whenever he obtains a credit that is never cancelled. Ho.is undoubtedly just as guilty, as any man who is un fortunate and rnnlly unable to keep his contract can get all the timo he needs by acCng ina perfectly fair and honorable manner; There is no more necessity for him to become a dead beat than there is for him to do steal ing. A dead beat is simply a thief, and should bo so treated by law. Thc Confederate Soldiers' Home, in Atlanta, Ga., was totally destroyed by lire last Monday morning. Of the seventy inmates, iocluding eight in valids, all wero taken from thc build ing with safety, though nearly all of them lost their personal effects. The structure cost about $40,000, but was only insured for $10,000. Tho At lanta Journal, with its usual enter prise and liberality, leased a big hotel in thc city as a home for thc Veterans, and at once started a fund for the rc-. building of the Home. Card from Rev. L. Carlyle Branyan. lulitor Jiilclliyriu't'r: This is the first time I have ever given any attention to gossip concerning myself, whether from individuals or in newspapers, lint sonn; days ago I was informed of tiic notice in your paper copied from a Georgia paper, concerning a committee appointed ny my Church to look into my conti net . This was a falsehood, pure anti simple, anti it has misled many of my friends and acquaintances. Not one of the !JG0 members in my Church liar, evei questioned my con duct during the four years of my pas torate then*. The fact is this: I, my sell, the pastor, | hud the Church to appoint u committee to look after one or two of tho mem bers who have been gossiping about j the pastor anti who have opposed his j work there from the beginning.
