The veterans of our Stale gatliere
together and enjoyed a royal good tiui
in the delightful capital city. Th
city was gnyly decorated through oi
-?and the citizens of Columbia did tlie
utmost to tnake the occasion, one woi
thy of the venerated heroes of the lo:
cause and nobly did they succeed. Tli
meetings were held in the big new thei
tre and great were the crowds at ever
meeting. The city, the visitors an
the truests all seemed to catch the ii
spiral ion of the gatherihg.
Too much cannot be said in praise?
the lavish hospitality of Columbian
Sufllcient is it to say, that this ocea
ion has endeared our capital city i
the hearts of a countless number <
Carolina's citizens. It can be trutl
?ully said that Columbia proved he
self equal to every demand. (Ireat
Coluubiu!!
The idea has been suggested tin
Columbia should have mi annual fest
vnl. We have often wondered \vl
this idea has never taken hold of tl
Columbia merchants. The positic
and facilities of Columbians a trai
centre are unequaled. What ^Coluii
friend
today for tin
piople of the difl'erei t sections to knov
of the advantages she has. Once 1*1
the people gej to going to Columbia
und her merchants will prosper as th<
green bay tree. In no way can this b?
forgot about, so well ns a s] ring festival.
The annual State Fair, as a sourer
of remuneration is wel* known to all,
No city in the,South is a lovlier j 1? ?
to vis?t, with a small outlay for decor tions
and amusements, with tlie annua1
musical Festival as a leader, thousands
could be attracted thither. Ir Colum
oia * merel ants appreciate litis (tppoi
ttmity, they will govern themselvts
accordingly.
Editor Wattcrion increased hi f.iuic

great because of his speech on
"Grant's Life as a Peace Lesson." If
Editor Gonzales of ths State would
consent to take the stump and tell

Two handsome stores are being put

, by putting up su h a stibstanti.il build

ornament to our progressive town.
Tbis enterprise is but an Index to th?
faith of our people, in our town. W?
