HOI*ot Col. Orr, in tim beautiful well
kept lawn around thc company's ottice j

Wears Mis Jeans in Washington.
Washington, Dec. 0.-Representa
tive Wyatt Aiken, of South Carolina,
is about as fine a specimen of physical
manhood ne there is in the House. He
ls fully six feet tall and weighs 240
pounds. When be was sworn iu a few
days ago along with the other South
Carolina members, he wore a home
made jeane suit, and he continues to
wear it. Tho suit haB attracted much
attention among tho fellow members
of the South Carolinian, who have not
seen anything iiko it for sale in tho
tailor shops.
"The cloth for this suit was woven
by a good old lady friend of mine in
Oconeo County," enid Representative
Aiken. "The weaving of cloth of this
kind is arare thing now, and I suppose
it is equally as rare to see a man with
a suit of it on in Washington or in the
cities of the country. I am proud of
it, thongh. It way not look quite ns
stylish SB some of our imported goode,
but it is by no means unattractive in
appearance. Every thread of it was
woven on an old-fashioned weaving
machine, now so rare as to be seldom
seen even in expositions. My good
lady friend believes that I should have
something warm to cover my frame
when I come to Washington, and she
takes great pains to weave the cloth
for mo. I then have it made into a
suit."
The cloth is a dark gray, nnd Rep
resentative Aiken hat* had so many
questions asked abour it by Ms fellow
congressmen and ea iumy nen have
expressed a desire for something like
it that he has promised tw or three
of bis best friends to seo what, be can
do toward getting them something of
the same material. ,
Tbe South Carolinian has set a fash
ion in tho House that promises to ex
tend if it is possible for the members
to procure the goodB,
"I'm dend stuck on that suit you
wear," enid Speaker Cannon to Rep
resentative Aiken a few days ago.
"( vn'tyou tell mo where lean get
oneT"
"Probably I can arrange it," said
Aiken, and he is going co try and see
what he can do.

A Visit to Anderson.
In the laut issue of ti;e Keowee Cou
rier appeals an interesting ?et'or from
X. H. Cary, nf Ocouee County, wiio
recently viaited Anderson. Of his
visit here be writes JIB follows:
"Having spent a couple of days last
week in the city of Anderson, I cannot
close this article without saying a
word about her rapid growth and
phenomenal prosperity. Her immense
trade, opulent 'bunkH, enterprising
merchants, talented professional men,
splendid newspapers, (daiiy and
weekly,) mammoth business housee,
oxcelleut hotels, educational and re
ligious advantages, all combine to
tender her one of tho mu-t thriving
and prosperous cities in the State.
Then there are her enormous coton
mills, with their thousands of op?ra
. ives and their immense pay rolls,
which add greatly to the trade of the
city. While there, through the cour
tesy of President Brock and the kind
ness of J. Keese Fant, I was shown
through the Bregon Mills from bottom
to-top. It is well worth a visit to An
derson to go through this mill and
observe its workings, which I have
not space to describe here. Suffice it
to say, that the mills are situated one
mile from the Court House, with
street cars running to and from the
same. This mill was completed in
1004 with a capital stock of one million
dollars, and bas been in successful
operation ever since under the presi
dency of J. A. Brock. In this mill
there are 150,000 spindles and looms in
proportion. Fifteen hundred hands
are employed and nearby nestle 500
neat cottages, which are Inhabited by
as many families. There is a free
school for the mill children from eight
to nine months in the year, and Sun
day school and preaching nearby every
Sunday. The quality of the goods
manufactured is superb, and they are
shipped to all parts of the world.
-Oconee is well represented in An
derson. The Mesara. Hol It-man, James
R. Keith and Joseph ll. S hui or are all
Oconee boys and are among the most
prominent and promising young busi
ness otra in the city, each occupying a
lucrative and responsible position with
the best business men ot the place
while Mr. and Mrs. Warren lt. Shelor
and their interesting family are from
here, and Mrs. Carrie Anderson, wife
of that efficient and gentlemanly rail
road man, Capt. John K. Anderson,
and her sister, J?iss Lidie Keith, and
Misses Shelor are daughters of Oconee.
Wo certainly rejoice over the success
of our friends and the high esteem in
which they are held in their adopted
home.
"The friends of Samuel and Miss
Ifary Fisher, formerly of Jocassee,
I are pleased to learn that they have
good positions in the Brogon Mills, at
Anderson, through the influence of
Isaac Green."
W, Carroll Brown Gets Postoffice at Bel
ton.
President Roosevelt yesterday sent
to the Senate the nomination of W.
Carroll Bro wi. to be postmaster at
Belton.
This means that the strenuous efforts
made by Senator Lattimer to have
Postmaster J. ?. Horton retained in
olfice have failed, and that Mr. Brown
will shortly be inaugurated in place f
of Mr. Horton, who has been postmas
ter at Belton for more than twelve
years.. Mr. Brown, as it happens, is
Senator Iiatimer's brother-in-law, but
Senator Latimer bas done everything
ic his power to induce the Pcatoffice
^Department to allow Mr. Horton to
keep the office. He was removed in
consequence of a report made by Post
office Inspector Pulsipher, who declar
ed that the work of the office was be
ing done by the postmaster's eons.
There was no fault found -with the
administration. of tbe office.
United States District Attorney
Capers, Republican referee In thia
State, was notified of Mr. Horton's
intended removal and requested to
nominate a man for hin successor. He
wrote Senator Latimer, saying that I
since Belton waa his home town? bel
would allow him to name the new
postmaster* <
Capt. Capers was entirely neutral in
the whole transaction? saying that any
man who was satisfactory to Senator
Latimer would receive his endorse
ment. On bia endorsement of Hr.
Brown the president nominated him
