As It appeared to he so nearly unanimous we had to give our time to other things requiring our ut tenion. It seems that everybody Inj Anderson who has studied the propo-j Sltton with reference to our partlcu-i lar condition? and has observed the] workings of the system in other citleB j Is very much impressed with the fact that it Will be a great thing for An derson. The directors of the Chamber of j Commerce pave, offered their services to city council, to put into effect any stop necessary to get a vote on the proposition. We understand that, perhaps without exception, the mem bers of city couucil favor it. There fore we ask why should not some one take up the proposition and put it through? Let's give the people a chance to accept it beforo candidates for municipal oISccb begin to an nounce themselves). Let us divorce the proposition from politics and have it discussed and settled on its merits. Spartanburg has it. Sumtor has it, Orangeburg has it. Al are satisfied, [why should not Anderson go a head with It? There is a general law on the statute books which will let-Ander son in. DB. J. W. BABCOCK, What is more affecting than to see tho mind, that Is sick? Other kinds of illness may bo treated with reme dies of one kind and another, but the mind is so delicate in its balances, so "Tcit'.rc It. Its vheaiL-al components, so fragile in its whole, that the bur den of restoring ??fe and health to the brain, as the seat of the mind, should bo entrusted to those who know and feel, Tho mind that is sick needs suc cor?the strength of a vigorous, vita lising, revivifying personality. As the. blacksmith is not fit to re pair the d?licate.mechanism, of an au tomobile,-as the house painter is un fit to re-touch the fading master piece of a Rafael, a* t'hp guilder ; of streets is not fit to carve the almost intangible traceries of immortal stat uary, so Is the unsympathetic,' untut ored and. unskilled doctor unfit ' to treat diseases 9t the mind. This re 1 quires the training of years. This re quires the1 sympathy of a great'heart and of 'a c-oiapfehensive' mind. This requires the time of one devoted to this particular work, one whose heart senses the needs of suffering humani ty and responds eagerly to apply tho soothing restc-r?Uve of medicine's healing alchemy, given in love and ad ministered for the good of all man kind. Tho will is the highest and most essential of all mental faculties, and ocicty at large is Interested in the saving of persons who aro but tem porarily and emotionally out of bal ance because of fever' or other dis temper or from overwork. All forms, or insanity, nre distinguished by' les sened control. Alcohol 4f * said to.cause 1 abouti tfeY ee*en?t'UbV':fM?lty. i Tofts e,?ciy*ai or depre^ng or ex hausting employment is also a cause of much insanity. What it to be done in a case ot this kind.? Shall the vic tim of herldtty or of circumstances *e regarded as an outcast and treated with an indifference that is murder ous in its cruelty or shall the curable be cured? Little more than 100 years ago an unfortunate^person ot this type ws? regarded as a maniac, as a criminal, as an offender against society, rather than as a poor unfortunate to whom the unseeing world really owes more because ot the struggle or heredity which might have caused this tempo rary derangement Rest, sympathy, the intuitive understanding of .<>len did- souled physicians, and of tender ly appreciative nurses, these are the restoratives which do the most to quiet and make well the rocking, tot tering mind, unbalanced but not by j any means lost. ^ The places ot confinement of the in sane in the days 100 years ago were looked upon' as tie pSrbrjo* * Jails ' for wrctohej poraoos. "But ?sqon the idea of curing t'nese pobr, sick minds took hold and the insane were treated in hospitals'where they were in many Instances .restored to sanity, to citt senshlp, and to Great God above. In Dr. J. W. Babcock there wag at tho head of South Carolina's hospital and home for the insane a man of forty thousand heart power^ A man ot brain and of skill and of w tore for the wretched and-the HI. He was known* tar and wide as a scientist, as a seeker after, more and more and more knowiedgo ot the hidden mys-; taries of the human mind and of the power to heal the bruised, places where the brain; sore ad ill, needed the treatment of i?teH?gt?? s?r-; standing. The rate of recovery from insanity tin : days is more than 40 per cent. Tlie South Carolina Hospi tal baa kept above the standard, we believe. Dr. Babcnek was more than a business manager. He loved the patients and desired above all things their happiness. As to the gentleman who succeeds Dr. Hancock, we have nothing to say. lie Is a good man, a courageous man. But professionally he does not take uch rank, Jle. began to practice at the age of 40; he spent several years in politics; lie has reached nearly 70 years of age?and as a general propo sition we would say that he is abso lutely lacking in the training, effici ency und natural gifts uecessary to fill a place requiring ho much diplo macy In the warring realm of the fevered human rnind^ AS TO rraerxATioN Our good neighbor the Newberry Observer puffeth itself up too muchly. Mr. Wallace, the editor of that paper, is a good man. And why should he not be? lie has assumed unto himself the right and placo to criticise bis fei-, low editors. He, of course, makes no errors. But there Is ono timp when he made a slip of the pen. When he claims| to have tho largest circulation of all th? semi-weeklies in the state, ho either spoke without thinking or is guilty of an offense as terrible as som? of those awful things that ho alleges against, some of his brother editors. As for circulation, the aemt [ weekly -edition of The Anderson In telligencer has Just about twice as many subserlptlo-? as Mr. Wallace has unless he,has more than doubled l hin former subscription list. And wltii reference to onr Semi weekly, v.e will state that Its publica tion will be resumed Friday, Wo have been sending the daily to the sub scribers until we can get the permits from the postofflce department to re turn regularly to the publication of the semi-weekly, as distinctive from our dally, which is a live, healthy In fant, thank you DRAIN THE SWAMP We trust that at tho meeting Satur day at ihe Cnamoer or Commerce rooms all opposition to draining 'the meadowB of Rocky river will once and forever be. laid aside. This..proposi tion In the hards of a skillful engi neer and good men will be the mak ing of'several hundred acres of pro ductive soil, and, the adding of thou ! sands of dollars to the revenues of 'the county. It will,also.add a-great d??l to the" Heslthf?lness of the coun ty as a whole and Is'In'thai way a' great help to the. whole people. Lei the .work be . pushed through. We are pleased to hear of tho Im provement m the condition of W. R^ Osborne. He has been missed, In the store, at tho Chamber of Commerce councils, and at the church. A good citizen he is.

Every farmer with whom I have talked complains of the scarcity of pigs, and those that can be bought arc bringing* fancy prices. These con ditions are not confined to Anderson co'tnty. It Is hoped that our farmers will this year plant more corn, less cotton and raise more hogs and cattle, both of which are becoming scarce.

The Press and Banner is anxious to I I bear from our ratjhty?? *u~ ;-tcl gencer aad the Daily Mail touching | the assessment laid on Anderson ?2Grr,Gw-"io build the trolley. Comparing the sizes of Abbeville and Anderson'counties and especially of the two_ cities, $200,000 for Anderson and ji?v.w?? tor Abbeville is in about ?m* right''proportion. This we be lieve I n?r neighbors will not deny. Then so much being granted we Issue this challenge to our neighbor: If Anderson will signify her willingness to subscribe $200,000 to the trolley, Abbov?lsVwM subscribe 9100,000, and will do: It within the next thirty- days. Obco ' doch, 'amounts have'- been sdb-1 scribed at Anderson aid ;- Abbeville,! Easley, MfcCorsnick and Edgetield will not be slow to come-up wlth>their esyj ae s em en ta. This ? ou?u give us sbqui $450,000 this side of Augusta, which With Augusta's subscription, say dot less than :|300,000, would-secure the road: < .v ?i i i?ho The! people all along the line are ready, enough ito subscribe to the un dertaking with the strong assurance of cuccesa but they are- not willing to subscribe a small amount to be frit tered away In Burbeys, without this assurance of ultimate success. Seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars subscribed with ? bond Issue for a Uke amount will build and equip tb* road. Anderson and Abbeville should get together on the proposition and sot the pace. The rest Is easy. IMPORTANT NOTICE*, Concerning the Sunday School Insti tute at Prospect March 28.
