The Columbia State issued a 36-
page twenty-fifth anniversary edi
tion Friday morning’ containing a
number of interesting articles from
towns throughout the State, showing
the growth and improvements that
have come about in the past 25 years.
The following appeared under a Barn
well date line:
Barnwell, Feb. 17.—To the person
who had not visited this community
in the past quarter of a century the
growth of the town would be truly
remarkable. Although Barnwell is
one of the oldest towns in the State,
it was looted liy Sherman's vandals
during the War Between the Sections
and the town and surrounding coun
try received a blow from which it
took years to recover. Its people,
however, possessed the same indomi- i
table spirit that characterized the en
tire South during those trying years
fottmring the long struggle, and the
results of their labors are now becom
ing apparent.
Especially in the past few years
has this little city made wonderful
progress. The purchase of the old
Carolina Midland railroad by the
Southern railway and th^ coming of
the Atlantic Coast Line railroad gave
Barnwell excellent transportation fa
cilities and added much to its material
growth. •
Twenty-five years ago nearly all of
the business houses here were of
wood, but in the last ten years they
have been replaced by modem brick
buildings, giving the business portion
of the town a very “citified” appear
ance.
A couple of years ago, responding
to the popular demand, the municipal
authorities installed an up-to-date
electric light and waterworks system,
apd plans are now on foot to enlarge
and improve the plant and also tq
erect a splendid city hall to replace
the opera house, which was destroyed
by fire in October of last year. In
this connection,• the city fathers pro
pose to install adequate fire fighting
apparatus, which will materially re
duce the present high insurance rate.
The growth of Barnwell has not
been entirely material, wonderful as
that has been, when the fact that
there are no manufacturing enter-
prises here to stimulate trade is taken
