A NEW HoTEI FOR COLUMBIA
learn that project to build fine hotel
III this city is on the tapis. It is argued
that such an accession to Columbia
would have the effect OF drawing hither
class of visitors and residents who
would add much to the progress of the
city. We have heard several coed sites
uggested-amongst them the site of the
hotel formerly known as Hunts Hotel.
Several parties have expressed their will
lingness to contribute their means to this
end, and we have reason to believe that
substantial effort will be made to carry
this hotel project into execution. Messrs.
Selbels Il Co. and others have been
agitating this subject. We hope that
the agitation will be kept up until il
vi
vacant places and move on and up.
