STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION
Approaching Meeting in Columbia
President Aull Urges Large
Attendance.

The South Carolina Press associa-
ton meets in Charleston, as the cdi-
tors know. on the 18th, 1lth, and
18th Of June.
am delighted to hear from so
many who expect to attend this meet
ing and to see the arrangements,
which arc being made for the elrter-
tainmcnt Of the association. Tt goes
without saying, Of course, that whcn-
ever We meet in The city of Charles
ton that the editors may expect
good time and that they arc never
disappointed. 7 trust that every cd
itor in the state will be present at
this meeting, and that he will bring
with him some member or members
Of his family so that we may have q
reunion of the editors in the state
thM will he both pleasant and profi-
table.
In regard to the trip to jamestown.
| have heard from quite number Of
those who intend to go and those who
do NOT, III response to the circular,
which | mailed ont some time ago.
OF course there is difference Of op-
inion as to The best time to take tho
trip rs we'll aS the manner in which
we shall 30. find that some Of the
editors can arrange to wrt to James
town much more conveniently. cheap
cr and quicker by NOT rcndczvousing
at any particular point in thc state.
but by going direct from their
homes. have about concluded that
The best arrangement will be for us
t." fix Il time when we shall meet
vi Norfolk, and that each editor
make his own arrangements to wct
there. At the same time we will ar
range for n special ear, which will
leave Columbia at time TO be an
mouneed and those who desire to 90
with the party can meet us in Colum-
bia and travel together to Norfolk.
I had thought that il would be pleas
ant to spend Il day Ell route at Rich
mond, and | am sure if we could ar
range to do so. that no one would re-
gret the time thus spent but it seems
that those who intend to go prefer
to go direct from their homes, and 7
will, therefore, arrange for hotel
accommodation in Norfolk or OlI
Point Comfort during our stay I'M
Norfolk and also arrange for boat
trip to Old jamestown rs well as a
boat trip to Baltimore and TO other
points Of interest around Norfolk.
The dates and schedules for these
trips as well as the rate and The ho-
tel will be announced later. There
is difference Of opinion as to the
time for this trip also, and T have
concluded not to announce any def
mite date until thc meeting of the
State association, at which time we
can have free conference and an
exchange Of IDEAS as to tnc best date
for our trip to the exposition.
| am very anxious that the asso-
citation shall be represented at the
National Editorial association, which
meets at Norfolk on the 10th Of June
and includes the week Of our meet
ing nj Charleston. was very anx-
ious to attend this meeting myself,
but owing to our meeting in Charles
ton, will be unable to do so. T have
appointed Mr.. w. f. Gonzales and
Mr.. c. NJ. Galloway, Of the State. aS
two Of our representatives and thcv
have consented to attend the Nation
al meeting. 7 shall be glad to name
two or three others if there are any
who can and are willing to 60. We
havc MOI been represented in Ma
tional meeting in some years. and
think We should keep in closer touch
with the National association, and
am sure if there are any of orr men,
bcrs who can attend at this time,
they will find ii pleasant and profi-
table to do so, and T shall be very
glad to name them as representatives
If they will advise me.
Respectfully.
