The veterans of oor State gathered together and enjoyed u royal good time in the delightful capital eity. The city was gayly decorated through out and the citizens of Columbia did the r utmost to make the occasion, oue wotthy of the venerated heroes of the lost cause and nobly did they succeed. Tlir meetings were held in the big new theatre and great were the crowds at every meeting. The city, the visitors and the guests all seemed to catch the inspiration of the gatherihg.

It can be truthfully said that Columbia proved herself equal to every demand. Great ik Coluubiu!! The idea has been suggested that Columbia should have an annual festival. We have often wondered why this idea has never taken hold of the Columbia merchants. The position and facilities of Columbia as a trade ceutreare unequaled. What friendtoday is for the pjople of the d ifTerer. I sect ions to know of the advantages she has. Once l?t the people get to going to Columbia and her merchants will prosper as th? green bay tree. In 110 way can this be forgot about, so well ns a sj ring festi- 1 val. The annual State Fair, as a source of remuneration is wel' known to all. No city in the South is a lovlier | 1 ?< e to visit, with a small outlav for decor . > tioiis and amusements, with tlic annua1 musical Festival as a leader, thousands * could be attracted thither. If Coluni- . bia's mernl ants appreciate this oppm | tunity, they will govern themselvi? t accordingly. * _ v .1 Editor Wattcrson increased hi fume ^ by his justly celebrated lecture ?n * l Lincoln.
