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.

Yon are jrobably not surprised that we think so, but if you will spend a few minutes with us looking over stock ind the facilities we have for qniok delivery, it is dollars to doughnuts ;ou will come around to our way of Oinking.

Respectfully, Frank D. Aiken. President. On conclusion of this report the thanks of the Board were extended President Aiken. A Great Record. Dayton. 0.. Nov.
