Alf IMPORTANT MEETING Tho meeting df the chamber of commerce to be held, next Monday night is a most' important one, and one that should b? attended by every person in Anderson wno wishes the city well, and would have it advance as it has been advancing in the past few year?. Thp jhamber of commerce, with Secretary whaley at its head, has been moat active in promoting every thing that would tend to Improve con ditions In this city er in the county. It rtanda for a Jarger'and a b'sgcr Anderdon, and. ls always, on the look out for new business. As much has not been done during the past few months as could be desired, hut that is no fault of the chamber of com merce. Tile, couditlpns. making prog ress possible have not existed, and nothing could be dope. But these con ditions!, ara bohiad* us BOW, and there will be an increasing amount of prof itable industry for the organisation representing tti? ^business Interests of the city. Therefore, the best men pos sible should be selected to lead this organisation, and to fill the vacancies on the board of directors. The mem bers whose terms of office expire are due the thanks of the organisation and of Anderson for their efforts, and they have been powerful factors in making, Anderson g^pw ?greater. Their successors should be chosen with care end should represent progressive thought and live business policy. NOT RIGHT TIME The Intelligencer la an advocate of commission form of government; and at a proper time will be found in the front ranks ?ghting for. lt. but we re spectfully subpU^th^^U is no time to begin the agitation ot a commis sion form of government for Ander son. We cannot learn who is father of the present agitation, Which in lt-s self is not a very good sign. If there ls a demand (or a commission form of government at tbWipartmular time, any more than has been tho c**)e {0T some tims, we have not'beard of it, and we would like ; tc, know who Is backing.this present circulation of pt - tltlone and for What? . Ws are of the opinion that one thing at a time ls a good motto to follow, and we' would like to have the paving proposition put through now, and then take up the commission form ot government We deplore any effort to muddy the waters, or to water the mud, till the people haye spoken on the question ot^pavlng. We look upon this aa the paramount issue tn the de velopment of the city Just now? sad anything! that detracta from the In terest In this proposition is to bo de plored. We do need a comm UK. ?on form of government and w? need further than that, g city manage-r. after the most approved methods of handling the affairs of cities that ara progres sive, bat this will all come in good time.

Before the cotton mills came to Anderson the difference between the New York and the Anderson prices was 86 points.
