The route taken by the South Carolina Press association party on their trip last week into tin; heart of: I ho Sapphire country of western North Carolina carried Ilieiu through some of the most beautiful scenery in America. In the far west, among the Jfoekios, the scenery is on a larger scale, and its grandeur is greater, but the views are not more lovely or more }>ictures<|uc than in this mountain section of North Carolina, only a few miles above lite South Carolina line. Leaving (lalVncv early I'Yiday morning mi a sperial train on the Southern railway, the association went via Mlacksburg to Marion, N ('.. and Jroin Marion lo Asheville. Only a I < w miles a Ir i v i lh> line the inoiin-/ails were re;tch> d. and from there nil the way hy Marion to Asheville tlie route lay hel ween and innlcr and over the mountains. liel ween Mlacksburg and Marion the Sontliern at many points is parallel to I he route of the proposed South and Western, in regard to which there lias la-en a great deal of talk recently. Everywhere along the line the work was being pushed in a manner which shows that the promoters o| the South and Western mean buisness. The building of this line will yive a direct route from Tennessee through the mountains I South Carolina, and its completion will mean .1 'jrcat deal to the material and industrial development of the Son 1 hern SI at es I he I 're- -. >t 1a I ion reached Asle'Ville in time for 111;> f 1 on |?Yiday. and remained in Asheville until Saturday iiiiwniirj. The iiiembers o| t tie party tlurinir their stay in Asheville were I he guests of the Mattery Park hotel. This hotel is under new ma uavenieut, Mi .1 I,. Alexander having taken charve wit i 1 1 lie beginninu of iliis season. Mr. Alexander is a native of Walhalhi. in this State, and he is alwavs delighted to weleome South Carolinians. lie was ei 'ii neef ed with Mattery I'ark tor seventeen years, up until four years ;::;o. |)nrin*j I lie past four years he has had charge o| other hotels. 11 i > return to Mattery Park as inanagei has infused new life iu ?his magnificent hotel, and it is better and more successful this season than at an\ pre\ ions time in its history. On I'Yiday afieriiitfMi the member?of the parly were tendered a rid< ovei the city by the boa.d of trad* of Asheville. Leaving Asheville on Saturday nioiniin:. the association went t? I fendersonville and lumdied at tin Wheeler, which is owned and managed by Mr. Sam 1\ Wheeler, of Newbery and of the Columbia hotel. As everybody in South Carolina knows, Mr. Wheeler has an elegant hotel and he entertained the association handsomely. I pon the invitation of Max or Shcucks, of I lemlersonville, and of the city, a drive was taken over I lendcrsouvillc. and to some of the near-by points of interest. On Saturday afternoon the Press association special wound its way u| the mountains to Lake Toxaway. To.xnway bears the name of the Indian chiet who sleeps near Toxa way Inn, among the hills which once resounded with the war whoop of tin1 warriors whom he led. Seeing the great possibilit ies in a summer resort located here. Mr. F. Hays, of the Southern railway, who had recovered his health among these mountains, became interested in its development. Knlisting the aid of a Pittsburg enterprise, Toxaway was completed some five years ago. after an expenditure of an immense amount of capital and labor. The company owns ;>0,00t1 acres of land in the tract on which the hotel building, Toxaway Inn, is located. fronting Lake Toxaway and surrounded by the mountains, the view from tin- hotel, which is ;i magnificent building and elegantly appointed, is superb.. The lake is artificial. but so true to nature is tlie shore line, it is hard to realize that this great body of water was pul there by the hand of man. It is ahoul three miles from the head of tlx lake to the dam and the shore lim covers about fifteen miles. Its deptl in places is 7f> feet Toxaway Inn is under the manage nient of the Toxaway Inn Company "which took charge this season. Th company was organized by Mr. C. A Wood, of Boston, who is its president and who is an able and experiencei hotel man. Mr. Wood was at Toxa way during the stay of the r.cwspn \ '. .'A ' O '.? * i* i'. . ..i ?' I v ... . per folk. Tin1 malinger of tin* hotel is Mi'. II. N. Mason, i?l Boston :i in I Atliinta. The Toxaway Inn company has leases on a number of other leading hotels in America, among them the Piedmont hotel, in Atlanta. Sunday was spent by the editors and their party at Toxaway, and it was a delightful day. One of the ehief attractions to many were the pleasure boats which all day long plied the lake. Leaving Toxaway at six o'clock Monday morning, the editors roturned (<? Spartanburg, where the party dispersed, the members reaching I heir respeclive homes on Monday afternoon and night. Accompanying the parly Ihroughout I he I rip was Mr. J. C. Lusk, division passenger agent of the Southern, with headquarters in Charleston. Mr. Lusk was untiring in his efforts t?> aid in making the trip successful and the outing pleasant, ami the trip would not have been complete wit liont him. j Mr I'. II. Todd, the courteous and j genial ollicial of the Southern in Cot lumhia. joined the parly : f Toxaway on Sunday morriii*.: and returned to Spartanburg with llirrn Monday. We print another article from Major .1. F. .1. Caldwell, as to the disposition of (he old court house. Il bears upon a very important fineslion, iind we trust that III >se who are interested will rend the article and furnish the tangible information which is desired, in order I hat (lie question may be intelligently submitted Io the voters in the approaching primary election. We are satisfied that if the library association, or belter still, the ollicials of the city of [ Newberry, will put up some guaran!tee Dial I lie old court house will be (properly cared for. so that il may be ; used as ;i res I room for the ladies I who 111?1 lo I lie cit\ from l he couiijtry. 111;11 :i majority of I lie voters <?i i t his ?*oiiul\ i 11 be \villiu'_' to have J il u*ed for this purpose. I'nless, | however, there is .-.oine jiutranlee | that the building will be properly I cared for. il cannot be expected lo ! have il set aside lor, that purpose. All eilies mikI towns of the size of | Newberry are now making arrangements for the comfort of I lie ladies and children who come from the eounlry to spend the day, and d< their shopping. Il seems to us that that is an opportunity to provide ;1 | mosl desirable place at a minimum of cost, and those who are interested ' and all people of Newberry sliouh I be interested, ought now to get bu-\\ | and do what they intend to do. ' j The county campaign will open oi the 'J 1st. and the election will be tin latter part of Auunsl. and in ordei ; that the people may act intelligently a definite and intelligent, propositioi should be submitted to them.
