Clink scaies will attract^ large crowd to the missionary conference tonight. Tile fact that he rs .to bo one of the principal speakers qf the evening will lend au Interest to the occasion that would otherwise be lacking and thone people who had in charge the selec tion of the speakers did well in BC curing this gifted roan. Prof. CiitJcscales was born in thin section of the country, being a na tive of Abbeville. Ho has also been closely associated with Anderson county In a number of ways, having lived at Williamaton at one time. At that timo ho wan in tito merchandis ing business, nut' later'buld tho office of school commissioner of Anderson county, filling that position with hon or and distinction. Everybody in Anderson county knows what Prof. Ollnkscalos has meant to the causo ot education and wo (believe that he means fully as much in the cause of missions. Wo aro glad to welcome Prof. Clink? hack to Anderson, even if it is but for a night and we bespeak for him a large audlenco when ho delivers bis splendid address at tho conference to night. * tf i -rSua CAUSE FOB REJOICING. Anderson people may well rejoice over the .result of the visit of the Anderson' busACW1 men to Columbia Monday. The etty-is to be congratu lated upon tkejaact that all indica tions now point to the success of tho plan to do some permanent work in ue city ana to put the city of An derson into (better condition than it is at the present tame. We do not think that Representa tivo Hall should be censured for asking the Iocja^-delegation to agreo to his amendmentr It ia only fair and proper that tho people of Anderson have a right to vote on the question of assessing abetting property for tho purpose of permanent improvements and if they do np?,wnnt it, they should not be forced to have it, but it is generally understood as being a fore gone conclusion (bat the people of Andese do favor . such a measure .and tfcer'jforo there is noshing to fear ' from the question tx?Lng put up to'tho people. Those people of the city of Ander son who hove the boat, interests of the city at heart will gtvo thanks to the business mea of Anderson and the city officials, who,'by. their first visit to Columbia, made it possible for the oily to take a forward step. v?S ASE OBATEVTJL.
