Some Facts About Chester, S. C.


(Clippings from the Columbia State.)


As one lands at Chester the first thing that strikes him most pointedly is the business attitude of the streets. There is a bustle and hustle on every side that puts ginger into the new ar- rival. With her paved streets and asphalted sidewalks, with business men bound close together in their chamber of commerce, all working for the advancement of Chester, the prog- ress this little city will make in the next few years will be more than mar- velous. Already the attention of ev- eryone is centered on the wonderful growth and progress she has made in the last few years. Property that sold some years back for $1,000 can not now be bought for less than $7,000; and still real estate men claim that values in and around Chester are ex- ceedingly low compared with values fixed in other towns and cities of the State. Her property valuation has in- creased more than three times in value in the last three years. An actual in- stance was cited the writer where a piece of property sold in 1904 for $3,- 000 was gobbled up a month ago for $10,000.


The assessed valuation of city prop- erty for Chester this year amounts to $1,500,000 on 60 per cent. basis. The assessed valuation of county property is over $6,000,000.


With her exceptionally fine railroad facilities and the wonderful advantages of the electric power at her very door, Chester bids fair to be one of the most progressive manufacturing centers of the Carolinas. Her ideal location has been recognized by some of the big- gest concerns of the country.


Some time ago Chester realized the fact that her rich surrounding country and her ideal location should be known to the world and her leading business men got together and formed a Cham- ber of Commerce. Already this body has done wonderful work.


One thing which strikes everyone as the leading step in progress is the in- formation printed at the top of the letter-heads of the Chester Chamber of Commerce. The following para- graphs give a comprehensive idea of what Chester has and what she offers: "City of Chester is the county seat of Chester county and is a railroad


centre-four different lines entering the city.


"A good agricultural section.


"Some 25,000 bales cotton raised in the county and most of it marketed here.


"Four banks-the Exchange, the Commercial, People's Bank of Ches- ter and White Bros.


"The Great Catawba Falls water power is in this county.


"Being in the Piedmont section of South Carolina, the climate is excel- lent.


"High and healthy location.


"Persons seeking health resort, sum- mer or winter, can get first-class hotel or private boarding accommodations.


"The town has a commodious city hall and opera house with seating ca- pacity of 800.


"The city is lighted by electricity, has good water and waterworks and a fine sewerage system.


"Three cotton mills, flouring mill, cotton gin, iron and wood establish- ments, door, sash and blind factory, agricultural works, cotton seed oil mill, ice plant, railroad shops, two newspapers, the Chester Reporter and The Lantern. fine macadam streets, excellent graded schools, handsome church buildings, etc.


The city has a steady, progressive growth, affording a fine field for man- ufacturing of all kinds, and cordially invites all who are seeking better ma- terial, health and educational advan- tages to make their home within her gates.


From a manufacturing standpoint Chester is hard to beat. Located in the center of a fertile farming coun- try with unexcelled railroad facilities, surrounded on all sides by immense water powers that furnish an unlimited amount of electric power, and about midway between Columbia, the capi- tal of the State, and Charlotte, the largest city in North Carolina, Chester is destined to be the center of a great manufacturing region and the next few years will witness a wonderful growth along this line.


Because of the large amount of cot- ton that is annually marketed on the streets Chester is attracting the cotton mill manufacturing interests.
