Dyke, This magician wishes to trans form the Piedmont country of the south into the richest and moBt sub stantial part of the world. He has money enough t<j carry him through, life and yet leave some for the income j tax collectors. He does not iwlsh, of course, to be tled-up with any enter-j prise that is a failure, und hu hau an-1 nouueed tliut he will not promote any railway ^extension matter unless the part that has undertaken proves to be a success. That canuot apply to Anderson of course, for this city Ib do ing all that It can to make the success' of the O. S. & A. and Mr. Duke might well put lila money hero now for ex tension. ..Dut to return to the sub ject? The Tntelligencer ht.s known since T ? Intelligencer baa known since t?- recent visit of Mr# Duke, will re quire many millions of dollars. It will give the cotton producer ready money through the fall, and yet not take all of his cotton when the prices are low on the first market?. This warehouse ByBtem, which incidentally would make the John L. McLaurin scheme look like a toy, would free the cot ton mills frouLihe graft and tyranny of commission Jmuses. Wo hope that Mr. Duke w?rget the co-operation necessary aud will put the matter through, tand t?tat he will eventually receive the good will of the people whom he is seeking to assist, while at the same time, of course, seeking to make himself a great factor ?n tho world's commerce. Ho now stands about 20th in the list of the richest men of this country. Wo would rather see him engage in co-operating with the south in commercial and indus trial upbuilding rather than to be ronrlna nnMt; !?br-r*.C= fr,7 the b??S?U of the few and engaging in other such ways of ridding himself of money. "UNCLE JOSH" AMULET Personally speaking, \\vc. rcgr?t to seo Citizen Josh Ashley enter th? race for the state senate. We believe the old warrior of many hard fought cam paigns can be elected to the house of representatives without leaving* his front door step, but to go to, the state senate he would have to make a cam paign, and we believe that be is not the man' he ogee was, physically. There Is no doubt of one thing, Uncle Josh has, always been on xUp. Job, every. Uma. the"t, the people sent hiio to Columbia. He' was ever attentive to buslnes and was not Blow to form conclusions of hie own. He has at tracted moro attention in the leglsla ture than any other , man in the last 20 years, .with one or two possible ex ceptions. WVs have not always endorsed his pol icy on state-wide -issues, in fact fre quetiy disagreed with him, but. for lo-| cal legislation he is always trying to serve his people right We believe that he wouM be taking! too great a risk with his health to go out Into the hot sun this oummer, buc If be does he will be heard from, of course. TOO MUCH BAD LIQUOR it is stated that the ministers of the city arc considerably stirred by the amount of drunken miss and reported gambling that is going on in the city. The police ?tatton was filled Satur day night The effects of mean liquor are seen on every side. The manner of selling it 1b so stealthy that the po lice cannot get a chance to suppress it. for It le-reported that the city is infested with the hip-pocket blind tigers. - It is said on good authority that the preachers have learned that there la gambling going on in the pool rooms and that minors ate enticed In by wild youths, and that things are done In some pool rooms that would horrify the .people of Anderson. We do not know anything of the location of said places, whether they are in the heart of tho city or qqt, A 8T?<ttO MM! Lowndes J. Browning of Union Is in I the city. He Is a .candidate for gov ernor. There might bo ? slight chance tor him'to be elected. If there should be South Carolina would have in him a courageous, ni?nly, hlgh-to?ed gov ernor, and a man trained in matters of state. He was for a number of years a member of the house of represen tatives, and for a part of 'the time was chairman of the ways) and meant com I mtttee. He is a farmer, not one of the city kind, but a farmer Who lives In the country., several mBes away from any railroad, and makes hie living by hard work. We,do e.t kaow what Mr. Browning's chances jure Any man who attempts prognostication these days Is fooliBh. ?* THE CO MIAN** We congratulate Secretary Burnett of the Y.

Anderson college was fortunate In securing Prof. William H.

A dele gation of educators visited Anderson just the other day and urgently re quested the* trustees of this college to release Prof. Hand from his acceptance of tin presidency and allow him to con tinue his -work In the interest of the educational system of the state., Prof, Hand bas the reputation of being the greatest'high'school Inspector in the South and his efforts in this direction hsve been crowned with success and tho ?high school system he bas built up will be an eternal monument to his un tiring efforts In this direction. His place as high school inspector will by hard to fill and the schools of the state, will misa him, but we are for tunate In having a continence of his labors in the state, and we predict a Vroaperoua future for Anderson College under the management of President Hand. .
