"1EsT TOWN IN sTATE''
Congressman Lever Talks In The
Piedmont

The Anderson Mail yesterday pub
lished an interview with Congress-
man Lever, as follows:
Anderson is a fine town. remark
ed Congressman a. F. Lever, of Lex
ington, as he sat in the Chiquola bar
Der shop this morning waiting to have
his whiskers trimmed. Mr.. Lever is
in the city to attend the marriage Of
his friend, Solicitor G.. B. Zimmerman,
and Miss Sullivan this afternoon.
''Anderson is the finest town in the
state" replied an Anderson man who
heard the remark.
81 do believe that is a fact,' replied
Mr.. Lever. Then he asked many
questions about the size of the city,
the population, etc., and marveled
greatly at the things the Anderson
man told him.
"And you have comparatively no
railroad facilities," exclaimed Mr..
Lever. "What wouldn't you do if you
had the same railroad facilities that
other towns have?'
Mr.. Lever has served two terms in
congress, and has just been elected
to third term without opposition,
which shows his great popularity in
his district. When he was first elect
ed he was the youngest member OF
the national house of representatives,
and was facetiously termed the ''baby
congressman" His mental powers
were acute. however, ard he soon
made himself felt in whatever things
he wanted to deal with. He is now
one of the most active as we'll as one
cf the most useful of the South Caro-
lima congressman.
There have been some runlOrs that
Congressman Lever may be a candi-
date for the United States senate two
wears from now. He did not discuss
that subject today, however.
Congressman Lever is well known
to many Anderson people and has
many friends here. He delivered an
address at the big Farmers Union pic
mic at the fair grounds two years ago,
and his address was one of the best
delivered on that occasion when good
addresses were plentiful.
Congressman Levers friends in Co.
, lun1bia will be much interested in the
political possibility suggested in this
Interview. He is regarded as one OF
the strongest, safest, most enterpris-
ing and most prominent Southern men
in congress, and here in Columbia,
| where he is infinitely more popular
than Senator Latimer, he would be as
sured of the most cordial and hearty
support, without dissenting voice.
