The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1899-09-01

THE way to build up Columbia is
to build it up. Just like thu way for
man to do thing is to do it. If
the people of Columbia will have
confidence in its future, and show
that confidence by patronizing home
institutions and investing In home
enterprises, Columbia will build up
and magnify and increase while you
are talking about it. The money in
the banks here belongs to the people
here; and If it is invested here, in
stead of going abroad or remaining
idle, it cannot help but build up the
town.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1899-09-01

1T is only six weeks now until the
Methodist Tennessee Conference
will meet IN Columbia, and the hos
pitable folks of this good city
should realize that fact and begin to
get their spare bed rooms ready.
They will be with us a week, and it
will tax the town to its utmost
capacity to lodge them all, for there
is many a one of them. But Colum.
bia can spread nightly when she
tries, and we know she will try al
this time, for it is an honor to en-
terrain this goodly company OF
Cody men.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1899-09-01

HARPER's MAGAZINE for Septem-
Der contains the following, which
may serve as food for thought to Co.
lumbia's Chamber of Commerce:
From the beginning Glasgow
owned it's own street-railway lines.
1t was too careful Of its streets to
allow any company to control them.
Though the condition under which
company leased the lines for
twenty-one years were highly
favorable to the city, at the expira-
ton of the lease it was decided not
to renew it. An offer was made to
take over the company's rolling
stock, stables etc, on an arbi-
traitors valuation, on condition
that the company should not put on
a rival line of buses. AS this was
declined, the Council started car
shops, and equipped the line with
new material entirely. On the day
of the transfer the competing omni-
buses appeared, but the citizens had
long experienced the advantages of
loyal support of their own govern
ment. All the Establishments of the
omnibus-c conductors were unavail-
