The Pullman service on the Interur ban from Oreen ville to Atlanta ls be ginning to make a hit with the travel lers along the linc. It is essential that Anderson should have a strong delegation In the leg isla t tiro, for it seems bard to get good men out in other counties. sT?pe more we see of the paved s troc?a in other cities, tho more are wo impressed with Anderson's back wardness In this particular, -0-' Anderdon should he made the. best homo, city in tho country.

This ls an Important duty for thc voter to perform. Never hil.? there been a time in the history ot' this e:ity when able and pro^re^sivi? men were needed mon1 to carry nu the work now in progress iban the present. Anderson is now being advertised lar and with as "Hie most progressive eily of the Piedmont,"--!! reputation much cowled hy other progressive ?.Ules and towns of the up-country. As a result of this truthful ml vert Is ing, Anderson is the recipient of much thal is desired and desirable. Nothing, therefore, should Ix? ?lone t<? (ii wa rt th?! ?'floris of those who are responsible for this advance and evi dent progress. It ls the truth tli.*t mia li can he done by the ofliclals of u city to foster its growth, and much can he done by them to hinder it. Who of the men as air ing to olllclnl position, is the most progressiv? Which baa thu good of the city most at heart and will devote most time and energy to the perform ance of his duty as an official? Vo ter, you know who it ia. Vote for him. There luis been much lost in this campaign by threshing over demi Is sues, what the people of Anderson are most interested in Just now is not who has been in favor of granting a fran chise or of Installing a v.bite way. but who will r'o most for I-? . f.-un growth of the city. These things have bee" done. Nothing now can undo them. Whut is needed now ls the foresight to get at son.ething else that will be Instuinenlal to further progress for the city. Let the new council fight for und not .against progressive ideas. Let them bring more capital hore Jo further udd to the volume of business*' done. Let them offer to the public Buch a clean city, such educational advan tages, and such advantages for the home-seeker as shall be an induce ment for people to continue to flock here to make their homes. '1 hese things are in the power of tho pro vince of a elly council, and should be uppermost in the minds of thc voters [as they make up their ballots to day.

Honesty and that mental attitude which inclines a man to-glve a square deal, coupled with a fair executive ability, make a good officer. This paper doesn't carry a div tick et at Its masthead. No individual should covet the responsibility of .nam ing the officers for a popular govern ???on?. No paper bdlr>viri? in i he wis dom of majority control should try to ^boulder the burden. To gho such facts aa lt consistently may as evl idence and to trust to the peopl'e se lective sense ls a newspaper's task and less than that 's humoral; more than is tyrannical. The people of Ander son ure Informed on the records of the I men who nrc todtty courting the ballot, and hy their knowledge of the records and character they should lie able to \ choose wisely. The Anderson of the ft turo demands ?f you to voto for the best men. CANNOT AFFORD IT A wide-awake, progressive, and far seeing city council ls likely at any time tn be confronted with a condition which may come great good for the future of the city. A few years ago Winthrop college was seeking a lo cation. Anderson was tentatively se lected as a desirable point for this ioeation. Thc question of raising a few thousands of dollars and the loca tion of the college were causes, we un derstand, which frustrated the ef forts of those far-seeing persons who favored Its coming. Ak a result, Winthrop cqllegevwas sent elsewhere, and au institution which ls the pride nf the Stale was lost. Not only this, but Anderson, as a.college town, was. hehl buck for yeats till only two years ago when her chitons, ba it said to their everlasting credit, at an ex penditure of vastly more money than would have been required to locate Winthrop college here, built Anderson college. * The city council going Into office as a result pf today's voting needs to be far-seeing and resourceful. Anderson canot afford to lose any more Win-' throp colleges. ?After all tho government of the city ot Andfrsoi^?uDdft? mn aldeffm?gHc fornj will never ^cb^^e aaoctffa^j hess that it would ander a commission I form/no matter Who should be elect-! .ed. .alden, wu,. .Dpi.** .1*0,Vf Pf* Wd Way.

The Perpetual Building and Loan Association of this city will commence its ten til series on the ltith and Mr. UTuf,~ E. Clinkscales secretary, stated that, nearly all of the stock of the new HeriesVnaa been subscribed already. ThiB association has already matur ed and retired two series of stock, the first lu 11)12 und the other one year later. More than $130.000 ha* been paid out to the stockholders and Sec retary Clinkscales estimates that the association has assisted b>' more than $2G0.000 in construction of home's and hus i ness houses ' in ' Anderson; County, "Because of the unusual 'building activity now being experienced there is au unusual demand for money,' de clared Mr. Clinkscales. "and our asso ciation not only has demands for the pWnitnts on old series, but we have demands sufficient to take eare of pay [ifc^hts in the new scries for three or four months. Available money for building purposes cannot meet the de mands." Mr. Clinkscales says that he lb anxious for the girls und boys who work on salaries, to subscribe for. stock, in the new series. lie states he would rather have subscribers of this kind than subscrlberc who ure monled men. Subscribers in building and loan associations not only enables the sal aried men to own their homes paying subscriptions instead of rent, but after the home ls paid for the subscribers have gotten In the habit of saving and will continue to Bave. Mr. Clinkscales expects to go after subscribers of this kind and he has a proposition which should appeal to evei*y one In thc city. The number of shares in the 10th series will bc between 800 and 900, tho capital stock therefore being between $Sii.oiio and $90.000. Tlie new series will commence on 16th. The annual meeting of the as-! so ci at i i m will be held on the 23rd inst, and Mr. Clinkscales says the reports will show that it has passed through a tine year.

TAFT TALKS AT HARVABD Ex-Presideut Has a Criticism For Trades I nions and Clayton BUL ? (By Associated Press) Cambridge, M?ue., June.115.-Tho un abridged exercise' of limitations upon hasty action of a majority of the elec torate, now interposed by vested pre rogatives of the supreme court and by the machinery ' for amending tue constitution, was defended by former President William Howard Taft in ar address before the Phi' Bela .Kappp Fraternity of Harvard University to day, lits subject was "The Supreme Court of thc United States ana! Popu lar Self-government." Mr. Taft's defense of the limitations had immediate reference to changes urged by certain political leaders to qualify existing personal and property rights and increased governmental control over the Individual. He at tacked the recall,-of Judicial decisions. Basing his argument that the con stitutional and judiciary obstructions to impulsive action at the polls were not inconsistent with popular govern ment, upon English governmental--de yelopment, Mir* Taft e.nk|.?~n??S??
