We arc In receipt of a copy of the Oca I a (Fla.) Evening Star, which contains quite a lengthy account of the ! marriage of Mr. Richard llolstein to M Us Mary B. Pyl.s. Mr Hoistein, whose home is near Monettn, left us only two weeks ago to return to Florida, where he is engaged in melon raising. That there was a mar riage in prospect was unknown to his many friends. The Star devotes a great deal of space to the brilliance ol the affair, describing the bride's costume, the floral decorations, the presents received and the guests in attendance. Among the latter we note generals, coioneis, captains, doctors and ; professors. From the account given I by the Star it was a swell affair. Wr I wish fur Richard and his bride a life of happiness, and it is our wisli that they will soon make their home in the old Palmetto State, llis friends extend to him and his bride through the Advocate their be.-t wishes. The marriage occurred on Sunday, October 29th. Too Editor and Local Enterprise. Asa factor in fostering every local enterprise, and as one who devotes his whole time and talents to the upbuilding of the community, the country editor is unique and important. and I deem it an especial privilege to pay a merited tribute to his worth, says It. li Harrison, in an article written for the Atlanta Constitution. Every enterprise projected, every scheme unfolded, that will awaken his fellow citizen to business activity, receives his enthusiastic support and the fruits of his pen arid wealth and honor to his constituents. The country editor possesses a pride in his town that no ore else can possibly feel, llis paper is an index of the progres-iveness of his haliwick, which he is anxious to show otr to the best advantage, If a cotton mill, oil mill, ginnery, broom factory or brewery is to be built the influence j of the country editor is tirst secured to boom the project and enlist the much desired stockholder under his banner. If the court house or jail is growing old and dilapidated, th beauties and ! i iieiits of new public buildings are >et forth in sm h eloquent words that property ladders deem it n happv privilege li? be taxed to erec. them.
