A CARD.

WE would like to call to the attention
Of the people of Anderson County a few
significant facts concerning the Drug
Store of HILL BROS, recently moved
from Broyles' Building on Main Street to
McCully's Corner ON tue Public Square
Smiths old stand.
In the first place these men endeavor, by
watching their business closely, to keep
always on hand such Drugs, Patent Med
icines, Lamps, and other articles in their
line, that parties wishing to come or send
to their Store for anything, not entirely
out of date, can always be accommodated.
For instance, the season for sowing wheat
is now upon US, and they have plenty Of
Blue Stone for soaking it all and 80
when the bilious seasons come they have
always on hand plenteous supply of
Liver Regulators, Pills, &C., and in the
chills aud fever time they double their
stock Of Quininc and Chill Cures Of all
kinds And even go in the season when
young mems fancies lightly turn" &C.,
that is, along about Christmas, you can
always iiud there what you want in the
way Of beautiful Celluloid Sets, haud-
some Dressing Cases, deliciousy scented
md elegantly decorated Perfumed Bottles,
Ladies' Work Boxes. lovely Mirrors and
Fancy Articles of every description.
1t is true they keep stock Of all these
things throughout the year, but they try
to regulate the quantities to suit the
season for which they are particularly
adapted; and while even in Spring and
Summer they keep their stock of Lamps
full, you will find that they have now on
hand the largest and best selected stock
of Library, Extension, Stand and Hand
Lamps they have ever kept before-it is
really worth walk over there to see the
display.
Another significant fact is, that the
Junior partner, who is the Druggist,
sleeps Oh the Public Square, in easy ac-
cess to those wishing Prescriptions or
Medicines prepared at night.

difference between Democratic rule and
Republican government. The contrast
is too great and tho practical workings
of the two governments are too fresh to
need detailed recall, and yet it may be
OF interest TO make short financial
comparison. The Republicans collected
from the people for all State and school
purposes about three millions of dollars
each year, while the Democrats do not
collect from the people over nine hun.
dred thousand dollars, making a differ,
ence Of more than two million dollars
per year In favor Of Democratic govern.
ment. This estimate applies solely TO
State and school taxation, and not TO
County taxation. The contrast, if we
were able to present the figures on Coun.
ty taxation throughout the State, would
be still more glaring. The analysis Of
the expenditures Of this money is e"en
more creditable to Democratic govern.
mert thaH the gross figures suggest. The
Republicans raised three million dollars
per year, and only run our schools from
two to three months in the year; they
did not support our charitable institu-
tions, and paid no interest on the State
debt They increased the bonded debt
of the State until our bonds were only
worth ten cents on the dollar. Every
department Of the government was filed
with corrup, officers, and the people
were Plundercd for the bepcft of the
officers. Under Democratic government
our schools are run for an average of
ive months on less money than the Re-
publicans spent in thrce, and our schools
are presided over oy better teachers.
Every debt Of the State is promptly net
rs 1t falls due, and every department is
presided over by competent and honest
officials. The great difference appears,
however, in the analysis of the figures.
The Democratic assessment Of property
is lower than it was under RadicalisIn,
and our State taxes now are only five
mills. This raises about :65O,O0O per
year. or this 1892 900 is paid for in.
terest on tho public debt, which the Re-
publicAns did not pay, and Sl45,0O0 for
tho Asylum, which the Republicans left
to be supported by private charity, thus
making for these two items, which the
Republicans did not pay, $537 900, and
leaving the Democrats less than 1925 900
Of taxes to defray the same expenses of
government upon which the Republicans
squanderod $4,000 In the session
of 1928, the Republicans expended
$4,000 for printing alone, or three
times az much as the Democrats collect
in taxes for all the departments Of the
State government, outside of interest on
the debt and the Asylums.
We have not space, nor do VIC consider
it necessary to go further into this dis
russion. Every patriot will surely come
out to tho election, and help us defeat
the enemies of our country. We need
every vote in Anderson County, and
confidently appeal to my fellow citizens
to come out on next Tuesday and do their
whole duty in behalf Of our State and
the Union, which is 30 seriously t!lres'
ened in this election. Let no man stay
at home.
