COMMISSION FORM OF GOVERN?
. MENT, '
,;- .
We present toeay some testimonials
as to the efficacy, of the commission
form of government for the manage
ment of a city's buatross. M this
time there can be considered in this
nb reflection upon any parsons, nov?
or. in the immediate or In the remote
past. It ts merely this: that the world
has awakened to a new idea of ban
di lag bu&iseos matters hy makins it
somebody's business to attend-to the
business .which has beer, everybody's .
business, and therefore nobody's busi
ness.
One of the greatest Illustrations ti
the. value of the commission form of .
government ls the development of the
city ot Columbia, Of this little need
be said, tor the people ot Anderson
have:*atobed lt closely, and turfier .
more the Chamber ot Commerce last
year enjoyed a moat interesting talk
front one of the commissioners, Hr.
Stifiglits. We present, ?oday a state
ment from MA?TU* -V. II: Olbbei, and
we think that it ls clear enough tor
-iUybody.
. The city of Orangobnrg has recentlyj
adopted the commission form of gov- '
hm^i aa et- ^
FTe^*Mt?n*tnaker, editor of .the Qr
angeburg Star, who hiky?liUka very
ac ;.-/eJ> in favor of the commission
form, if we are not mistaken. We did
no. .try to pick men who favored the
commission form of government. Or
angehurg favors the pian, and lt has
Succeeded there, in e; toity smaller
than Anderson.
Paul V. Mrs. re, secretary ot the
ta-w?H known In Boatb karolina. He
was the manager of the Spartanburg
exhibit that took the drat prise at the
flharlcaton exposit lon, and he waa the
mander of the state exhibit at
Jamestown that ?took4 the national
Vraie.'' H? l?'atsotbsmhn who made
a county lair, pay Spartsnbbrp- 13,000
last year, and:* when the renowned
John Wood left Spartaajbtfg the peo
ple there took Paul Mc4Rs up bodily

Tba consensus of opinion ot all of
these gentlemen is 'tjfu?tiaeeofunl*
