UH. JLL. h;DiTuk. THE STATE FREW ASSOCIATION. The State Press Association held its annual meeting this year in the city of Georgetown To say that it was one of the most pleasant and successful in the history of the Association would be to express it but inadequately, to say the least. The attendance was good and this meeting has been an inspira tion and an impetus to the Association. In fact this meeting has put new life into the Association. It has been just eleven years since the annual meeting was held there, but the Georgetown of today is not the Georgetown of eleven years ago, except in the open hearted hospitality of its citizens, the chivalry of its men and the beauty and loveli ness of its women. These have been proverbial for all time and are not to be obliterated by the commercialism of the present day, but stand as bright jewels in the crown of one of the most progressive of the coast cities of the Atlantic. * * A leaflet which the Georgetown people are distributing states that Georgetown has A population of nearly 6,000, and yearly increasing. An annual commerce of $i,000,000. An anvual port tonnage of 350,000 tons. One thousand miles of navigable rivers, watering nearly three-fourths of South Carolina and part of North Carolina. Railroad faciiities that afford clove connection with all points North, South, East and West, via the George town and Western Railroad, connect ing at Lane's with the Atlantic Coast Line system. Two steamship lines to New York and Boston. One steamship line to Wilmington, N. C. One steamer :o Charlest on. Sieamers on all tri' utary rivers. A live board of trade. t'wo local building and loan ;ssocia tions. Good banking facilities. A Land Association, offering city lot and truck farms on easy terms. Fine graded schools. Handsome churches of all denomina tions. The larg+st and finest lumber plani in the world. Good telegraph and telephone sys tems. Two good ne'wspapers. Large shad.abd sturgeon fisheries. The greatest game preserves1in the country. The finest beach on the Atlantit coast -of the Pawley's Island summer resort-a place free of mosquitoes Pure water supply. Fine electric lights. Broad streets well laid out and abun dantly shaded wit h oake and elm trees. Good country roads wel,kept. Many points of historic interest ic city and county.. Good live, progressive and liberal business men who will welcome thbe capitalist, tourist and home-seeker. Large wholesale and retail storet filled with well kept and complete stocks of merchandise, sold as cheap as -at any other place ina the State. If you contemplate a change of resi dance write to the mayor or the prest dent of the board of trade., The United States Government it spend ing $2,000,000 building jetties and improving the har bor of Georgetownl besid'-s building a canal and improving riv'rs The flavor of colonial life, culture and tradition, mingled with snap and vim of twentiet b century progress. In ad dition we olight add that George town has a live and progressive mayor and thbe good judgment to keep bim ic haroess. Hon. W. D. Morgan hat been mayor for thirteen years and hat been re-elected without opposition at the end < f each term. We might add also that no town can , grow and prosper in this age without a livE mayor who has the interest of the towr at heart and is not afraid to go ahead even if at times be should be criticised for spending a little money Mr. Mor gan is also president of the bank The -board of trade is live and progressive because at its head is the Hon. Walter Hazard, one of thbe ablest lawyers and one of the most polished gentlemen ic the state, and who is also a live and progressive citiz-n, deeply interested in bhe pr..perity of the community. * * Mr L S. Etbrieb w-is chairman of the banquet committee, and such a banquet as was spread is rare'y seen. But we cannot -pecify withbout mentiouning all of the citizens of the city, for every one did his or her part to make our stay pleasant, and the unanimity with which they worked is he secret of the success and growth of the city. That is necessary for the prosperity of any community -concert of action * * The businies" sessions of the Ass' cIa tion were pleasant, harmonious and helpful, some exceet and practical papers being read. The address by Hon. Julius E .Boggs, of Pickens, on Thursday evening was forcible, elo quent and replete with wholesome ad vicE~ and wise counsel, and was highly commended by all who were present. H is subject w as :oyalty-loyalty to f4m. ily, loyalty to community, loyalty to county, loyalty to State-when you have these~ 3 ou have the good and true cit izen. We had the pleasure also of having with us the same evening the Hon. Jno J. Darean, who does some newspaper work, but wbo is now a teacher. E e spoke on South Car"linia history, and told of the lack of justice to South C'arolina done by the histories adapted for use in our common schools. All be pleaded for was justice. He was not severe on any one, but could sus tain his criticisms by the facts. There is no doubt we give too much attention to foreign bistory anid not enough to the history of the town and State and community in which we live. .We would be glad to have Col. Dargan ad- ( dress the people of every community in this State, for if he could we feel ( sure he would awaken a deeper interest ( in the study of Lae history of this State. * * The excursion given the editors on s the bay and to view the lumber plants i and the jetties was a very pleasant fea ture of the meeting. The visit to the Atlantic Coast Lumber Co 's plant, how- i ever, was the most interesting part of the sight seeing. This is the largest lumber plant in the world. Everything is done by machinery and yet the com pany employs over 3,000 men, and cuts more than half a million feet of lumber every day. It is really a revelation to a man who has been accustomed to seeing only the old fashioned sawmill to take a look at this mammoth mill and observe how logs are handled, and how rapidly they are turned into boards. It cannot be described. * * The banquet was one of the prettiest and most enjoyed that we have wit nessed. The guests sat down at 9 30 p. m., and the speaking closed at 4 a. m. The dinner was served -in courses and lasted about two hours and the speeches were above the average, and the speakers were given the very best of attention. The ladies had charge of the decorations and sup.-rvised the preparations for the supper, and that means that it was well done. * * The election of officers resulted us !ollows: E. H. Aull, President, Newberry, S. C. J. C. Garlington, 1st Vice President, Spartanburg, S. C Ed. H. DeCamp, 2nd Vice President, Gaffnev, S. C. C. C. Langstou, Secretary, Anderson. August Kohn, Treasurer, Columbia. Rev. W. P. Jacobs, Chaplain, Clinton Executive Committee-J E. Nor ment, J. M. Knight and J. W Ragbdale. The As.ociation was e, tertained by the people of Georgetown. and it was done in most excellent st.le. and every member comes away with a good word for Georgetown. It wa. our pleasure to be the guest of Mayor W. D. Morgan, a most charming host. We had wit h us at the same home Col. Wm Elliott and Col. James Armstrong. * * Pleasant memories of this meeting will linger for many days with all of those who were fortunate enough to be present. We found in Georgetown two New berrians-Dr. Matthews and Willie By num-both doing well and delighted with their adopted home. It could not be otherwise, for any one who would not be pleased with Georgetown would indeed be hard to satisfy.
