Anderson's Prosperity.

Within a short time Politics will he en-
gaging all of our attention, and we desire
beforehand to give sketch of Anderson
generally and its principal Business cspe-
cally. However, it is no small matter to
form an exact estimate to what extent busi-
ness really has increased in this town with
in the last few years. 1t is true we have
statistics of cotton shipments, but that is all
and at the same time inadequate. The best
criterion we think is the number of new
business houses that have been opened, the
way the town has generally improved, and
the great demand for houses. With the
Blue Ridge Railroad completed, there is no
doubt of Anderson's assured success and the
position she will hold as the leading market
in upper South Carolina. In the Fall Of
1875 quite an addition was made-one of
untold beneft-a permanent end lasting
improvement-th opening of what is pop
ularly called the New York Cash Store"
The proprietors, Messrs. Arnstein d Rose,
entered heartily upon the work, and have
every reason to be proud of their great sue
cess. They had confidence in themselves,
and in the South they knew that by hon.
est efforts trade could be built up as no
other house ever enjoyed; they brought
with them northern energy and persistency;
they had all the advantages that possibly
could be wanted for success-capital, tho
rough understanding of business, energy,
and a practical knowledge of the New York
maket. They soon became known as men
worthy Of every confidence, men who came
with the fixed determination to stay, and
our people were not slow in partaking liber-
ally of the advantages the New York Cash
Store offered. Their system is strictly cash,
and anyone who ever had the misfortune of
buying on credit can at a glance tell the
advantages and the result-low prices. This
town is very much indebted to that enter
prising house for really low prices and
large assortment of goods. Every year their
trade has wonderfully increased, and SO has
their stock proportionately, and it is but
justice to them to say that at present it is the
largest that ever was shown in the up-coun-
try. Their elegantly fixed up store presents
the appearance of wholesale warehouse
piles of goods everywhere, every inch util-
lied up to the very ceiling, shelves are laden
and the middle counters filled. We have
no doubt but what every man, woman and
child in the county has been in that estab-
lishment. Their way of selling is plain and
straightforward, their prices for various
reasons-so very reasonable, that no one
can wonder at their immense trade. Every
body goes to the New York Cash Store, be
cause they can find what they want, and
are waited on nicely and get the lowest pos
sible prices. The ladies fully appreciate
this house, for it supplies their wants, from
a pin to the finest silk, from common slip
per at so cents to the finest French kid but
ton, all kinds of fancy goods and notions at
a small advance above New York cost
what only cash house can do. To the
gentlemen this house needs no introduction
from us. It is recognized as headquarters
for ready-made and made-to-order clothing,
fine furnishing goods, nobby hats and shoes
of all kinds. We may give an idea of their
enterprise when we state that they sell the
best and prettiest calicoes for only cents,
when they are worth to-day atwholesale in
New York cents. They bought them soon
and give their patrons the benefit of it.
That kind of advertising selling goods
cheap has paid them handsomely, and
they intend to adhere to it. Messrs. Arm
stein and Rose, Robert c. Webb, M. j.
Hoek and r. C. Cunningham are pleasant
and agreeable gentlemen and delight in
showing goods and pleasing customers
Everybody will do we'll by needing our ad-
vice, "Be sure to 60 to the New York Cash
Store"
