STATE ROAD TO CHARLESTO\ From KIngstree Agitated Here-tvill Be of Much Benefit. A movement to connect Kiryrstree with Charleston by a State highway system has been started. Mr J I> Morrison of McClellanville, a- member of the Legislature from Charleston county, was in Kingstree Tuesday night and at a meeting of citizens,called together under the auspices of the local Board of Trade, made an interesting talk Oil tne SUDjecl, outlining 111 auiucdetail the proposed project. The following resolution was unanimously adopted: Resolved ? That the Board of Trade and citizens of Kingstree being vitally interested in the upbuilding of the highways of our county and State, and particularly in the proposed highway to cross the Santee river leading to Charleston, do hereby request our legislative delegation to work for and support a bill for the establishment of a State Highway Commission, believing that the establishment of a highway connecting the Pee Dee section with Charleston by means of a bridge and road somewhere between Remini and Georgetown will be of mutua' advantage and benefit to all sections of the State. Mr Morrison stated that Charleston county was heartily in favor of the road and would take care of the enterprise so far as that county was concerned. STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING.
