Manufacturers' Record. Indicative of the spirit of develop? ment throughout the South are two letters from South Carolina, reaching the Manufacturer s Kecord at about the same hour. One is from Sumter, S. On and in this Mr. A. V. Snell, Secy, of the Chamber of Commerce, writes: "Sumter is going ahead by leaps and bounds, and 1 believe that any impartial Investigator would bear me out when 1 say that no city of the old South for Its size is doing more than sumter right now. It is having a building boom. Two new hotels are under way. one costing $100,000 and one $50,000; two onice and bank buildings, one to be seven stories, are under construction, as are two new churches, one to cost $40,000, and a $75,000 gas plant Is being ins; tiled. The S. W. R. R. Co., reported to be a branch of the Seaboard, is being graded Into Sumter from McP.ee. where it connects with the Seaboard, and from which point north but a few miles will connect with Monroe thence via Charlotte to IWstlc and the Clinchfleld. From Sumter It is Oeftatn to go routh to Charleston. Glan? e at a map. and the impor? tance of this extension is easily seen. In Sumter on every hand smaller buildings * nd dwellings are going up. Seventeen stores are in course of con? struction. The Southern Express Co. is to have a new home. Recently a new wholesale tlry-goods house has been established with local capital. This has been followed in the last few days by *he Witherspoon Rros.
