MORE HOTELS FOR SAVANNAH.

Up to the time of the building of the
De Soto, through the efforts of num-
Der of public-spirited citizens, Savan-'
nah was without what could be called
a modern hotel. The De Soto is gen
orally conceded to be one OF the hand
soonest and most comfortable hostel
ries in the country, and it's erection
has been of great benefit to the city.
Meanwhile the older hotels have been
greatly improved and modernized, and
they have done and are doing, good
business. All Of the hotels are kept
open the year around, and it is fire.
Quently the case that they are taxed
to their limit with guests.
There are afoot projects for the build
ing OF three new hotels in the city.
Two of them are to be combined ho-
tells and apartment houses and the
third a hotel for tourists-that is, one
that will be kept open only during the
tourist season. The sites for the pro-
posed buildings are most eligible and
desirable. The first is on Madison
Square, on Macon, Charlton and Bull
streets; the second is Ola the corner
of State and Bull streets, and the
third, that of the tourist hotel, is to
be somewhere on or near Forsyth
Place.
There will be business for all of
these new places Of public accommoda-
tion. No city in the Southeast can
compare with Savannah in attrac-
lions for visitors and tourists. There
is something always to be seen or done.
There are beautiful and historic places
of interest to be visited; there are the
golf links, the saltwater resorts, and
the ninety miles of improved roads in
viting riding or driving through pleas
ant and picturesque woodlands. With
greater hotel accommodations there
will be an increased number of visitors.
and more visitors will mean more peo-
pie who will invest in homes here. The
good roads OF the county have already
caused several gentlemen who camo TO
Savannah as tourists to purchase win
ter homes here. With tourist rates,
obtained through the efforts of the To-
cal railroad men and the Chamber Of
Commerce, there must every year be
an increase Of the travel TO Sayan-
nah. and the city should be prepared
with ample hotel room to suit all
classes and all Corners.

Mr.. Maxwell's little plan to Ego on

Maxwell has kept mighty bad political

calculated to confirm confidence. His
conversion is too sudden. He hasn't

in the great wealth of the octogenarian
