Anderson Needs
Map of C0unty.

A party of business men were dis
cussing conditions around town yes
terday when stranger stepped up
and asked as to where map of An
derson county might be obtained. No
one could give him any information
although one man vouchsafed the in
formation that such map had been
made about 1895 or something like
that year. This provoked a discus
sion ON the part OF The business men
present aid they ali agreed thst such
a map lis badly needed, likewise a
map OF the city of Anderson is almost
a necessity. There is chance for
scmc one in Anderson to make a lit
tie money by having this map pre-
paredta and at the same time to do the
city a genuine service.

Crops Helped
BY the Rains.

Late cotton and vegetables have
been helped wonderfully by the re-
cent rains.". said j. w. Rothrock yes
terday. In his travels all over the
county in his capacity as county ag-
ricultural agent, Mr.. Rothrock has
an opportunity to come in contact
with the farmers and to inspect the
growing crops and he therefore has
more accurate idea of crop condi-
tions than any one else in the city.
Mr.. Rothrock says that all indications
point to favorable weather for the
next few days and he believes that
the farmers are going to get almost
twice as much cotton as they had
counted on.

T2he Clerk Has
Started System.

Having become tired of attorneys
in Anderson and from other parts of
the county coming into the Office and
taking out papers which were some
times never returned and other times
hard to find. Jas. n. Pearman, clerk
of court for Anderson county, has
had large book printed which has
space for the attorneys name, the
nature of the paper which he secured
the date on which it was taken out
and the time when it was returned.
Thus. If a paper comes up missing
In the Office of the clerk Of court he
consults this register and finds the
name of the attorney responsible for
The document. Mr.. Pearman says
the plan Is proving to be success.

somewhat worried for several weeks
Fast about the business conditions

because they were too busy waiting
on customers to worry about "hard

said last night that he had heard SO
much talk about the lack OF money
that he was beginning to believe
there was some truth in 1t. but after
his splendid business yesterday ne
had decided that It was all rubbish.
And several other merchants agreed

Easy Enough TO
Rent buildings.

e. p. Vandiyer, who has charge OF
renting the store rooms in the new
Watson-Vandiver building on Main
street. said last night that he was at
loss to account for peopie COM
planning about SO many new buildings
going up and prognosticating that
they could not be rented. In the new
building referred to there are four
large store rooms and before tho
building was completed three OF them
had been rented. Yesterday H. II.
Rosenberg closed contract for the
fourth one and within the next few
days Rosenberg's Tailor shop will be
moved from Whitner street to the new
building. This would seem to indi-
cate that there Is yet room in Ander-
fson for additional store rooms.

Maybe the question of the Anderson
abattoir Is settled and then again,
possibly it Is not, since dozens of mis-
understandings have arisen about this
matter long after It was thought that
the entire affair had been settled. AT

Friday afternoon, that body agreed to
allow Mr.. Henderson to increase the
price for sleughterlng from so cents

Those who look TO the money market

advances I'm the stock market lay much
stress on the amount Of funds that will
be accumulated against the payment Of
income and corporation taxes in June. II
is their belief that a very large part OF
the ultimate payment will be stored up
in the next two or three months, finding
employment. through the banks. in both
time and call loans. The total amount
OF taxes to be paid in June, it is esti-
mated. is about a2OO0oOoO. The decrease
in customs duties is likewise expected 10
swell the amount of money seeking occu-
patton. If that decrease in the next
three months is no greater than the slO,-
10000 a month already reported, there
will be S4O. 10000 from that source alone.
Money, it is predicted. in some quarters
will be practically unlendable.
