WILL SUMTER GET A CAMP ?
A United Effort Beiog Made to
Get a Camp of Soldiers.
Tito Daily Item of Monday.
Since Spartaoborg cannot famish a suita?
ble camp gronnd for the brigade that the war
department bad planned tosend to that place fer
the winter the brigade might be secared for
Sumter if an effort was made and the ad?
vantages and inducements that Sumter can
offer were brought at once to the attention cf
the war department. It is rather late, it is
true, to take op the matter, but if the city
council and the boniness men wonld get to?
gether aod interest Congressman Stokes and
Senator McLaurin in the matter io Sumter's
behaif a camp might yet be established here.
Sumter bas the two things that are most nec?
essary to secure a camp-a suitable site for
a camp and an -buodance of pure water.
There are a number of places near the city
that would be excellent sites for large camps,
healthy, well drained and large enough for
the encampment of a large body of men with?
out crowding.
The advantage of having a carr p is well
understood by all who bave considered'the
matter, the men would spend enough money
io the city to keep tbe merchants busy and
the business of the towa would be doubled
while the brigade retrained. The matter is
worth considering, but if anything is to be
done it will have to be done promptly and
tbe suggestion is thrown out for the consid?
eration ot the business mea of tbe city. Por?
ty thousand dollars per month divided be?
tween tbe merchants of Sumter would be
worth working for.
The Daily Item, Tuesday Oct. 25tb.
Tbe suggestion that en effort be made to
secure the location of a cusp of troops in
Sumter bas met with favor, aod there has
been considerable talk about doing some?
thing to interest the war department. This
is all very well, but talk will not bring tbe
camp If it is wanted the Board of Trade,
the City Council and tbe business men as a
whole will bave to get a move on themselves
and bring the matter before tbe war depart?
ment at once in a way to impress the officials
with the advantages that Sumter bas to offer.
The co operation and influence of the officials
of the Atlantic Coast: Line should be enlisted
also.
A mass meeting of the business men of the
ci'y will be held in the Court House at 4
o'clock tbis afternoon to consider and form?
ulate plans for bringing to the attention of
tbe war department the advantages Sumter
offers for the establishment of a camp of
troops. The matter bas been generally dis?
cussed in an informal way ca the streets
during the moroiag mod the suggestion made
in this column yeeiterday met with such
hearty approval on all sides that a mass meet?
ing for the purpose of organizing and se .ting
the ball in motion along business lines was
tbe result.
Now that the business men are thoroughly
interested in tbe matter it is settled that no
8tooe will be left unturned to secure a brigade.
Sumter cao offer unusual advantages, and if
I it is not too late iii bare statement of facts
should fee sufficient to induce the war depart?
ment to eend a brigade at least to spenci tbe
winter in this city. The facts concerning
the sites suitable for large encampments, the
abundance of pure water and' the health rec?
ord of the city as to fevers of ail descriptions
acd other diseases should be folly set forth in
the strongest terms. And more important
than all a representative delegation should be
selected to go to Washington, if necessary, to
have a personal interview with the officials of
the war department and present tbe claims of
Sumter. No half-way measures should be
adopted, sod Sumter should go io to make a
winning fight, or it would be far better to
Stay ont of it altogether
It should be first ascertained if there isaoy
chance of eeenring a camp, or if ii is 100 late
to do any thing. Then, if it ts found that,
tbe war department consider the matter, will
be tbe time for a strong and united pull to
get what is wanted-a brigade encampment.
As was said yesterday, a brigade encamp?
ment is worth working for, aod bara and
intelligent work always tells.
What Has Been Dene.
A representative meeting of business men
was beld in the court house yesterday after?
noon to take immediate action in reference
to securing an encampment of soldiers for
Sumter It *?s the epinioi of the body that
a ramp would be of great benefit to tbe city,
and a resolution to this effect was unani?
mously adopted A committee consisting of
Col. R M. Wallace, Hon. A. Moses, Capt
Jobo Heid and Messrs. Neil O'Donnell and M.
G Rytteuberg was ?ppointed to confer with

5 o'clock. The matter was discussed by the
Council in all its bearings aod it was decided
to take all necessary steps to secure the catcp
A telegram was scot to Secretary of War,
Alger, enumerating the advantages of the
city, and asking if the War Department
would locate aoy other camps.
If au affirmative reoly is received a com?
mittee will go to Washington to-night to

The Cost of Electric Lights and
Water.
The probabilities are that when the new
contract for lighting the town is made next
spring, the contract with the Sumter Electric
Light Company then expiring, a considerable
reduction in the price of lights will be
secured. The contract for lighting the city
was made ten years ago when electric light
plants were much more costly than at the
present time and it then cost more to operate
them after installation, and at that time the
prices paid for arc lights for lighting the
streets and incandescent lights for stores and
dwellings were considered quite reasonable.
At this time, however, the prices paid for
lights iu this city are higher aod out of pro?
portion to the prices paid in other towns that
have recently made contracts. Conse
boeotly it is bat right and rea
sonable to expect that wheo the new
contract is made a redaction will be
secured aod schedule of rates for lights for the
city and private parties made to conform to
the rates charged io other flaces An idea
can be obtained of the prices in rogue in
other places from the recently made contract
for itehtiog Greenwood. The Greenwood
Journal of a recen: date says that the
'Price paid for lights varies accordiog to
number used ; the cost ranging from 3D cents
each in case of 26 lights to 60 ceo ts for sin?
gle 16 candle power lights. Arc lights are
rated to the city at $60 each."
The people of Greenwood pay less for water
than the people of Sumter, ?8 the following
statement shows :
Water rates decrease in natio as the number
of faucsts increases, the first faucet for do?
mestic sse co8tiog $D, the second $2, and
each additional $1 The nature of the busi?
ness increases the price to the consumer, the
whole list being carefully graded. Lirery
stables are the highest on the list, $24 being
the least price. Hydrants are rated to tbe
city at $25.
However, as the contract with the Sumter
Water Company has a long time yet to run,
there is no use to talk about wanting a re?
duction in water raies for public and private
uses. The rates charged by the Greenwood
company illustrate quite piamly that there is
a downward tendency io ibe charges, and the
people of Sumter can look forward with a
reasonable hope to the ??ne when a new con?
tract ia made for a reduction io water rents.
