President Aiken’s annual report
reads as follows:
Brunswick, Ga„ Nov. 8, 1901.
To tho Brunswick Board of Trade:
Gentlemen-It is my pleasure to
submit, in addition to the report of
your secretary and treasurer and those
of our standing oommlttees, a brief
review of the work this organization
has undertaken, supported, and in
most Instances accomplished during
the past twe.ve months.
The latter part of last year we took
up the matter of assisting the promote
ers of the Brunswick & Birmingham
Rtilroad Company, so as to give our
port direot rail oonneotion with the
great mining industries of Northern
Alabama, and to that end a convention
known as the Bruna wlok & Birming
ham Railroad Convention wi,s called
and held in our city on the 24th day o£
last January, from which convention
not only great good for the above raii
riari company em noted, but tbs people
wee attended n presenting as they did
nearly all of the territory between our
city and Birmingham, Aia„ at least
made our acquaintance, and wj believe
it was the birth ot a feeling of interest
in the port of Brunswick, whion will
surely radtuad to toe good of all our
citizens, I am glad to say the con
struction of the above railroad is pro
gressing favorably, and I believoide
day Is not far distant when our fondest
hope will be realized, that is, solid
through trains will roll into our town
direot from the great mines of North
ern Alabama. Even with the short
mileage they have completed gives us
oonneotion with the great Beaboard
Air Line system and through passen
ger trains dsliy to and from Savannah
in addition to daily schedules to Jack
sonville and all points North and
donth. The operation of this chort
line atone is of incalculable benefit to
onr oity and I believe that every mile
of steel laid by this road means more
business for us all,
During the same period, this board
thought it was wise, in order to inter
est the people of the (Juiced S',atee at
large in the resources of our port city
and this locality for all materials, as
well as economical labor, necessary in
the construction of ships, to assemble
all such people Mere tha ! . we could, and
to that end the governor of our state
was requested and did call the National
M.itime Congress, wbiob was held
under the auspices of this organize*
tion on the 30th day of January last,
and from which we believo Brunswick
received crnat national notorikty,
and sooner or later 1 am of >he opinion
great good will oome from orir . flVris
in that direction,
The oarJy part of this year our board !
called a Sugar Cane and Cassava Con-1
vention, which assembled here on the
9,b day ot April, the object of which
was to interest people in tilling the soil
of this looality and exemplify t,o them
the good money oiops both sugar oene
and cassava would prove lo be. Fif
teen thousand cassava ssed were
bought by this board and distributed
skke, to all who would promise to give
the sime a fair test and report their
suooese to our secretary These re
ports were so encouraging that a sec
ond convention lor the dißcusslou of
the oultivation ot sugar cane and cas
sava was called, and did meet here on
the 22d of October last, at which time
we were again convinced, aud all who
attended we believe were, that theso
two produots would make as good, if
nit the bist, money crop possible
for any farmer in South Georgia, I
believe, and think there are many
of you who will share this opinion,
chat this is one of the greatest move-
I
nients for tho fu'are good of all this
locality that ever has been undertaken,
and we believe most of us will live to
see very great prosperity in our snr
rouudieg country by the planting of
these very products. I hope lha work
tbit we have commenced will be oon
tibU"d until such success has been
attained that the present generation
can leave their country to their chil
dren not in waste land, with the grand
forest that once existed all destroyed,
but leave them the gardeD spot of the
world, for It will grow, as I believe,
averyihing that human wants as well
as great money orope that we believe
cane and cassava will prove to be, oan
and will cover this entire seotion.
From our statistics you will notloe
that the p.iet year has been a very
successful one, aod lam told by our
real estate agents tbat considerable
real es ale is now changing bands, in
dioating an era of prosperity, Whioh we
have not been blossed with for some
years past, therefore, I .think we can
congratulate eaob other, not only upon
the suooesses this organization has met
with during the past| year, but the
appearance of a general prosperity'and
substantial growth for the future.
From our secretary and treasurer’s
report I find tbat we have not been in fi
nancial position to fully oarry out ail the
desires of our members, and must there
fore call yonr attention to the fact of the
very limited inoome the present dues
give for our support ce you will take
such action in tbat direction as you
may deem wiee. Subscription* hare
been solicited by oommittees of this or
ganization to such a large extent that

think so, but if you will spend a few
minutes with us looking over stock

sucoesfully continue on that line, as al
reports received by me indicate that
only a few of the tax payers of this city
and county are contributors, for the
welfare of all, and those few have about
worn their pockets thread-bare, to In
my opinion, we mutt call upon all the
tax payers, in some way, to keep us in
sufficient fands to oarry on the good
work that we have begun,
I must extend my thanks to our
worthy secretary, and the various com*
mittees who have ao diligently and
faithfully worked with me for the
good of this city during the paat year
also to those members who have taken
active parts in the many undertakings
that we have carried through so suc
cessfully.
Respectfully,
Frank D. Aiken.
President.
On conclusion of this report the
thanks of the Board were extended
President Aiken.

Who is going to get the
beautiful China Closet that
is going to be given away
on Jan. Ist, 1902? Why
the one that gets the lucky
number. Get a ticket
with every cash purchase
of 25’c. (Jet all the tickets
you can. You can get any
thing you want that is
kept in a first-class gro
cery, at this place and as for
as little money as can be
bought at any other place,
considering quality; and at
the same time get chances
on the China Closet, and
possibly get it.
