It was our good fortune to attend the twenty-eighth annual session of the South Carolina State Press Asso ciation in the grand old historic city of Georgetown on Wednesday, Thurs day and Friday of last week, and to say that it was one of the most inter esting and enjoyable meetings ever experienced by the members but feebly expresses it. From the open ing to the close there was not a dull moment in its proceedings, and during the recess hours the members were entertained in various ways in royal style by thc genial citizens. The re ception committee met the members and their lady {relatives at Lanes, miles from Georgetown, an 1 we were assigned to the hotels ana homes of the citizens as their guests. From our arrival to the time of our leaving everything was at the command of thc editors free of cost. The writer was assigned to the Windsor Hotel, and "mine host," Capt. J. H. Wilson, left nothing undone that would tend to our comfort and pleasure. As we alighted from the train Tues day evening the first thing to greet our eyes was a long banner stretched across the street with electric lights bearing welcome words to the Asso ciation. All the business houses along the main thoroughfares were decorated with flags and bunting, and thc cordial greetings of the citizens made every member of our party feel at once that we were in the hands of true friends. Wednesday morning the Associa tion convened, and most cordial ad dresses of welcome were delivered by Hon. W. I). Morgan, thc genial and energetic Mayor of the city, and Hon. Walter Hazard. Chairman of the Re ception Committee and President of the Hoard of Trade? President Aull, in behalf of the Association, respond ed in his usual happy style to these addresses. An excellent and interesting pro gramme had been arranged for the meeting, and nearly all the members who had been appointed to prepare and read papers on the subjects as signed them came well prepared to perform their duty. The subjects, of course, were only of interest to the journalists, and were handled in a way that every member preseut re ceived new and practical ideas about journalism. The subjects of the in teresting papers brought out other topics, which were generally discuss ed, the members giving their expe rience in various lines of work in the newspaper office. The meeting con tinued through the three days, two and three sessions being held each day. Wednesday afternoon thc annual inspection and parade of the George town Fire Department took place. Thia was witnessed by the members of the Association, and it was the general opinion of every one that the city has just cause to be proud of her fire department. That evening a dance was given by the Palmett ? Club. At the close of the business session of the Association the younger members went to the dance hall and spent a pleasant hour or two. Thursday morning the Association had a busy and most interesting ses sion, and in the afteruoou the mem bers boarded a steamer and had a de lightful trip around the bay and to the islands near the city. An abun dance of refreshments were on board and, of course, we all partook of them freely. Many points of historical in terest were pointed out to us on this trip, and the only regret of the entire Marty was that daylight did not last a few hours longer. On Thursday evening Hon. J. K. Bogga, of Pickens, delivered the an nual address before the Association. His subject was "Loyalty," and his address was most entertaining and in structive to the large assembly who heard him. He was followed by Col. John J. Dargan, of the Darlington Herald, who bad been requested to deliver a short address ou the history of South Carolina. Col. Dargan is well posted on this subject, and he ably and eloquently handled it. On Friday the sessions were equally as interesting as those of the preced ing days, and much business was transacted. The Association had three pressing invitations for the next annual meeting, one of which was from J. T. Harris, proprietor of the White Stone Lithia Springs, which was referred to thc Executive Committee with instructions to ac cept under certain conditions, pur ing the day the following officers wen: elected to servo thc ensuing year: President, Iv II. Aull; Vice Presi dents, .J. C. Carlington and Ed. H. DcCamp; Chaplain, Kev. W. P. Ja cobs, D. D.; Secretary, C. C. Lang stuii Treasurer, August Ivoli'ii r.x ecutivo Committee, d. M. Knight, .!. V). Normern ann J. N\". Uags lah . Friday afternoon carriages were soul to our place of meeting, and io com pany with thc committee the press i gang enjoyed a ride through the city and visited the plant of the Atlantic Coast Lumber Co., the largest lumber plant in the world. J. Pierpont Mor gan, the great financier of New York, is at the head of thc Company, which has a capital of ?C,000,000. This Company employs more than 2,000 men, and turi? out more than one-half million feel of lumber each day. The very latest improved machinery ia used in the plant, and it is a most in teresting sight to watch the work in the varioue departments. From the time a log is taken from the river un til it is loaded in finished lumber on the cars or steamers it is handled by automatic machines. We saw one machine handling six logB and throw ing forty-eight full size pieces of lum ber at one time. The dust and shav ingsfell into fluesand were fanned half a mile away into the furnaces to be used as fuel for propelling the mon ster engines. It is worth a trip alone to Georgetown to see this immense plant. The closing feature of this most in teresting meeting was the banquet Frida) night, given bj' the citizens complimentary to thc Press Associa tion, and it was, beyond a doubt, the grandest and most sumptuous it was ever our good fortune to participate in. It was 10 o'clock when our party, escorted by a large number of the citi zens, entered the banquet hall, and it was in the small hours of the morning when we came out. An elaborate menu was served ia tine style, .iud it was relished and greatly enjoyed by every guest. President Hazard, of the Board of Trade, presided, and the toasts were responded to most elo quently and interestingly. The menu covers were of green card, printed with gold. Each card bore the legend of the occasion, and each of the edi tors' names was written in gold under a pen of gold, making a most valuable souvenir of our meeting there. Saturday morning thc members of the Association took their departure, some going lo Charleston to partici pate in the closing exercises of thc (Exposition, soine to their homes and some to visit friends or relatives in other towns. The unbounded hospi tality and kind attention of the citi zens of Georgetown will ever be cher ished in the hearts and minds of the members of the press gang who were so fortunate as to be their guests on this occasion. Georgetown is one of the oldest met tled towns of the State, and is now a live, progressive city of 0,000 popula tion. Like many other cities in the State, she has in thc last decade im bibed new life and has a bright, prom ising future. She is the terminus of one thousand miles of navigable rivers, and has an annual commerce of $8, 000."00. In and near the old city are J many places of historical interest to be seen. Some of the old colonial resi- ! deuces are still standing, among them the house where Lafayette, the gallant Frenchinnn, spent his first night in America in 1777. This same house sheltered Washington, Monroe and others. It is a stately mansion, and the old furniture, the Parian marble fireplaces, costing $500 each, still stand as they did more than a century ago. Our only regret is that we did not have time to visit all of the his torical places in and near the oity. We know we speak the sentiment of every member and the ladies who ac companied them that this was one of the most enjoyable meetings in the history of the Association. We know it will be no trouble to get the press gang to go back to Georgetown again when the opportunity offers itself. - mw mm - FOR JIENT-Two nice mono?, clea? to .Square. Apply at this office.

The subjects "f trusts, the tariff ami the Philippines were discussed. Silver was not men tioned and thc avoidance of this ques tion indicated the desire of the execu tive committee to map out a campaign on lines different from tho;".' of the last two national campaigns. The outcome of the meeting was the re solve that tue main issue is to be the tariff and the trusts, with the Philip pine <|uestion a good second. The Board of Trustees of Clemson College will hold another meeting at the the college to-day. Speculation is rife as to just what will be done at this meeting, but the natter of Presi dent Hartzog's resignation will likely come up for settlement.
