It would be hard to say that any city is the "best" city in South Car olina, yet that is what we are going to claim for Orangeburg. The fact that Oranbeburg is tue best cliy in the whole state is what we are go ing to prove?and it is no hard task to prove that it is the best from many standpoints. It is situated in the best county in the State from a farming viewpoint, and, as farming is the chief asset of every county in the State, Orangeburg takes high rank for that reason. For its size, we fearlessly say that j Orangeburg can show more than any ! other city in these parts. More pav ed streets, more banks, more busi | ness, more school children, better water, better wages, better sewerage system, larger business houses, finer looking buildings, handsomer homes, splendid health and better moral and homelike atmosphere by actual com | parison, than any other city of like size or larger in the State. The city maintains the best volunteer fire de partment of its size in the Southern States. The hotel accommodations are eq ualled only by cities of double our population and are surpassed by very few cities of double our size. The railroad facilities are. unsurpassed now and a new road is rapidly Hear ing completion. It is possible to leave Orangeburg in any direction in the morning and reach any point of the State by early afternoon. Now add to these assets a splendid college j with several hundred boarding schol ars' for white and two of the largest negro colleges in the South, and you have a consuming population during the business season of about 2,500 ir. addition to our regular popula tion. Orangeburg grows constantly and rapidly and substantially: 2,900 peo ple in 1890; 4,400 in 1900; nad 6,000 in 1910. Note the even rate. This signifies that the false boom is unknown that characterizes the un healthy growth of a great many cit ies For the means of support of these 6,000 people we have in addi tion to the regular trade from the country, two cotton mills, two fer tilizer factories, six printing offices, one ice factory, one cotton oil mill, one brick yard, two iron foundries, one steam laundry and several lum ber and planing mills, besides a num ber of minor factories, bottling works, etc. The city has igrown without any concerted unity on the part of its business men' in the past. In fact, it has grown in spite of no organized effort. Simply couldn't help but grow. Now we have entered upon a new era. Our people are pulling together. The business men of Orangeburg pay a salaried official to talk and boost Orangeburg City and County. We are going to grow more rapidly now. We are going to reach out for larger things. Yes, the Chamber of Com merce, composed of the most pro gressive men of the city are organ ized to work together. The old theory of begrudging! the other man bis success, has been discarded. The business men have actually organ ized to study and criticise each oth ers advertisments in a helpful way. We want every body to succeed in Orangeburg for there is room here for every one now and many thous ands besides that are coming here to live in the next decade. Come and live with us and we will help you. Yes, the men of Orangeburg are working together now. Several large enterprises a/re headed this v,ay through combined effort on the part of the business men. The grave of the knocker is dug. No room here for the pessimist The real growth of Orangeburg has just bp gun. The growth in the past has been natural. We are igoing to add to this natural growth, the growth by enterprise, that made cities like Spartanburg, Charlotte, Atlanta, Bir mingham, Jacksonville. We want every one to learn that Orangeburg Ir the best situation for a city in South Carolina. Our nearest com petitors of like size are further away away than the competitors of any city in the State. Look at the map! Sumter is 44 miles away, Columbia 50 miles, Charleston 80 miles and Aiken over 50 miles! Surrounded by an imcomparable farming coun try these distances mean something. Now look at the location of every one of the thirteen cities in the State having 5,000 people or more and notice the nearness of their compet itors. Our nearest competitor is Sum cer and nature has provided a large stream as a barrier half way. Or angeburg is going to build up rapidly as the trading centre for this fine country lying all around us between our competitors. 'Orangeburg was the twelfth city in importance in South Carolina, in 1900, there being eleven larger places In 1910 we ranked tenth, there being only nine larger places. We outstripped Union and Newberry in the decade race between 1900 and 1910, both of them situated in the much boasted Piedmont Section. In this same decade, Sumter dropped from fifth to sixth place. Orange burg will rank not lower than sixth city in South Carolina by 1920. Watch the prophecy of our slogan, "20,000 by 1920." Orangeburg, the Queen of the Edis to! The Edisto soon to be opened to navigation for us; a connection soon to be made with the Seaboard Airline Railway at North for us; the United States Government soon to erect a $60,000 Post Office for us; new factories coming; a United States Fish Hatchery coming; new business es opening every day. A daily paper, 2 twice a week paper, a thrice a week paper, a once a week paper?keep your eye on our growth. If you are not prospering in your present com munity as you would like and as you think your talents warrant, come and ccst your lot with us in our tide of prosperity and growth.
