FAR VISITORS HAD MONEY Spent Liberally In Columbia.-Peopi From All Over State Seemed to Be in Good Condition. 'Columbia.-It was estimated that ,he 100,000 visitors to the state fair and harvest jubilee spent altogether $500,000 during the week. This esti mate Is considered conservative. All' concerns in, Columbia report ecellent business for the week. While no definite figures are obtain able it is practically certain that the state fair society was left in a better financial condition than at any other time In its history. The railways haul ed many thousands of extra passen gers. The automobile owners who placed their cars temporarily in public ser vice reaped a golden harvest. Many cars made as high as $4 for a single trip to the fair grounds. Practically every street car in Columbia was crowded. On "Big Thursday" it was estimated that the street railway hauled l ore than 50,000 passengers. ltesta rants hotels and boarding houses yore crowded throughout the week. A register was unnecessary at most a4 of the larger hotels because reservations had been made a week in adv nce. The information bureau made p a list of several hundred privat home owners, each of whom enter fined five to ten visitors. The price. were kept down during the week nd fwe reports of overcharging were ecorded. '1'lt foundation has been laid and now it seems that an even greater har .st jubilee will be held next year. Son a Columbians were sz eptical of the ambitious plans Proposed by the jub ee committee and were disposed to liild criticism. Now these citizens ar4heart and soul for the jubilea and wi lend their assista.ce next year. he committee will keel) the people o the state in touch with the plans fq next year as they progress. The boster trips will be revive{ -next sum ir and several special "stunts" will 1, put on. The jubilee cr.ninintee will obably go to Charles:on for the an ;ual me.'iing of the Southern Cor jiercial congress. Gaffney Wants White Way. * Gaffney.-A petition is being cir !culated in Gaffney which when signed 1by a :ajerity of the freeholders will be presented to the !;oard of public works, asking that body to erect a white way in the town. It is being freely signed and it is believed that the board will grant the request. The paving on Limestone street is making satisfactory progress and Pos;master Gaffney is in receipt of advices to the effect that the posts and boxes for the reception of mail have been shipped, and it is probable that at last Gaffney will have letter boxes--more than ewo years after free delivery of mails has been established.
