SOUTHERN EXPOSITION.
A Convention to Held at spartanburg to Ar
range for Representation at the Southern
Exposition to be Held at Chicago.

The following circular lately re-
ceived explains itself.
EDITOR TIMES: "A convention COM
posed of delegates from the Southern
States and Cities, was held in Chi :
cago in February to consider the ad
visibility of holding an Exposition of
Southern resources and products in
that city this year, and to devise
ways and means for covering the cost
of such an Exposition. The conven-
ton resolved without a dissenting voice
that the Exposition should be held.
The City of Chicago pledged itself
to undertake the whole expense of
organizing and maintaining the Ex-
position.
The several Southern States un
dertook, on their part, to provide the
exhibits, and to pay the expense of
collecting, arranging and organizing
their exhibits.
When the delegates from South
Carolina metin Chicago, it was deem
ed advisable that if the Legislature
failed to make an appropriation to
place before the world the products
and reeources of our various cotton
and other industries at the Exposition
in Chicago, trial should be made to
raise the necessary funds from other
sources. The Legislature you are
aware, did nothing for the end in
view, and it now becomes my duty.
by the authority of tie Governor of
the State, to invite you to attend
convention to beheld at Spartanburg
on Wednesday evening, April 18th.
1896, for the purpose of providing
plan by which an Exhibit of tie in
dustries of the State shall be made at
Chicago. 1t is hardly nece: slry for
me to place before you the imperative
reasons why we of this State should
make the best exhibit.
The great development ofour Cot
ton Factories, the natural advantages
we have of climate, water power, and
cotton raised around the Mills must
invite the attention of capital, there
by making our State not only fore.
most in agriculture, but also in Cot
ton fabric industries.
In no other way can our farmers
be more judiciously helped than by
giving them a market, we might say,
near to each and every farm, thereby
linking together agriculture, manu-
facturcrs and commerce.
| request, therefore. that the May
ors and lntcndants of the Cities and
Towns in the State attend the Con-
ventlon at Spartanburg, and aproin,
three delegates from each Of the Cit
les and Towns to represent their scv,
cral municipalities i'll this Convention.
for the purpose of insuriug an Exhibit
by South Carolina at Chicago
l request that each Of the Cotton
manufacturing enterprises III the
State appoint representatives TO at,
tend the Convention ia Spartarburg.
/ also request that each of the
Railroad companies doing business
in the State will appoint a rcprcscn
tativc te attend thc Convention.
| shall be obliged if you will in
form me at your earliest convenience
the names of the delegates ycu have
in response to thi, address. |
Very respectfully yours,
r. l.. Roche,

HOUSE LOTS IN DEERlMG
The yery Cream Of it AM.

FE,HE scarcity of good building lots in de-
Il sirable localities in Deering as in Port
land is becoming quite noticeable. On
Pleasant street, which is now and always
will be one of the very best in the city, there
is scarcely a house lot to be had at any price
apart from the plot Of land fronting the els-
CANT residences of Mr. Fred kimball, Mi. B.
M. Eastman, Ira S. Locke, Esq, the late t.
Frank Jones, Mr.. J. C. Colesworthy and DR..
Strout, these lots the very choicest of any
and all, are now for the first time offered Tor
sale to those who when ready will build
modern first class residences Don't miss a
good thing and feel bad about it later on; A
few cents per foot is no objecs when the
choit . of permanent residence is in question
as your very life may be at stake. Look
this property over and if the surroundings
are not entirely satisfactory and all other
features conducive to good results in home
making, don't buy it. 1t is for hsale by
