MONDAY MORNTNO ..Hot. If, IM*
Tkt CflnUi ttl Angmtt Bail,
road—The Election To-day.
The law require* that before the%Hy
Council c*n 4ubacri|» to My Urflroad,
the question of Sfch suWriptiyn eliall
bn submitted to the qualified mien t>f
the City. The Uw on thie point is in the
Aall Wrffode
in any case without the previous concur
rence of a majority of the legal holers
of Slid City as it hereinafter designated,
the votes to be taken in the same why
and manner, aud returns to be made as
in the case of an election of Mayor and
Member* of Council of said City, the,
time of voting to be .fixed by the City
Council, end to be advertised for at least
three days in all the pqblic gazettes of
said City, and anlesk a majority of votes
be in favor of any Stfbscnption shall
not be made.”
Application having been made to the
City Comgil dfAttguafo uTspbectibe to
the stock of the Columbia ft>4 Augusta
Railroad, the question has, in accord
ance with the foregoing Uw, been
ordered to be submitted to thp peoplq
for their consideration and action.' To
day they will hft«e the opportunity ol
rendering their at>d they should
avail themselves of this opportunity to
render their decision.
The question before them is practically
this: “Shall the City Council of Au
gusta be authorised, by the legal voters
of the City, to subscribe One Hundred
Thousand Dollars to the Capital Btock
of the Columbia and Augusta Railroad
or not?” Upon this question they will
vote “Subscription'’ or “No Subscrip
tion,” as their judgments or inclinations
may suggest. But before they vote
they should consider well the step they
are taking. They should ask themselves
whether or not, by voting soy ok against
Subscription, as the case may be, they
benefit th*l Oity. or not. This Is the
point upon which-they ought, as good
citizens, to decide before depositing their
votes in the ballot bos. ’• > t\
We have, in previous articles, en
deavored jo show jbp great advantages
which must necessarily aecrue to the
City, by the completion of the proposed
Road. We need only recapitulate,
briefly, here some of these advantages.
Any Road bavin* one of its termini
in the City must benefit the City ; and
anything that will benefit the City ought
to be sustained- These are plain propo
sitions, and will be generally admitted.
The Columbia and Augusta Railroad
is such a Road, and, ought, therefore,
to be sustained and aided by the City of
Augusta.
It will be the shortest route frtmi New
York to this City, and, wlien the Alil
ledgeville and the Mobile and Girard
Railroads are finished, the shortest to
the Southwest. It will connect with' a
Northwestern line, and shorten the
route to the Northwest. Trade aud
travel will always seek the shortest
routes.
It will open new markets to -the trade
of Augusta. It will bring new pro.
ducera and new consumers, new cus
tomers, to Anguatn, thus increasing
business and labor here.
It will, through its Machine Sloops,
Freight and Passenger Depots, etc.,
give employment to numerous me
chanics and. laborers, .thus benefiting
the working men.
It will necessarily enhance the value
oi real estate iu the City, and so benefit
the owners of property.
It will reuder taxation less burden
some to individuals ; because, by the
increase of trade and business generally,
and by the‘ increased value oP' real
estate, increase the sources of revenue,
thus lessening the amount,' pro rata, on
individuals. ,
It will, by drawing business to
the Georgia, Central, and Milledge
ville Railroads,' enhance * the value
of the Stocks of these Roads, in the
former and fatter of tthieh the City is
largely rnterhstdd.
It will prevent the construction, or at
least, counterbalance the effects of, the
proposed Raifcotwl Iroih N.
C v to Atlanta, Ga., which, if built, and
no competing Road is buHt/win thabe
Augusta, as it twetty a. (Wood. .yard, ot
way depot, for the ChSatlidton and Mem
phis ltallroud. 1
These are some ol tbd 'Advantages
which to; the City from
the completion of thd* Coin® bid and
Augusta Railroad—advantages in which
all clasfdl fit J*»r wflt shore,
and to Secure winch all should u rifle.
Voters may rest aasorod that the City
Council will.not blindly subscribe to t)ie
Stock of this Road', without any guaran
tees whatever. require themost
ample seci/tity, befoiC sibk-riMng; and
tbe conditions imposed are, that the
said Rood, shall, enter the City, that
its Mac Line Shops and Depots shall be
built withiq the (Jity, |that its property
shall be taxed, as other property in the
City, and that tpe ol August*
shall be a? officio, quo of the Directors
of tbe
that the Company will stand between
tbe City and a«/MW>ages which* vrirty
ensue from the cntermg'of the road into
the City. These comiHw** wjl! be
strictly enforced, sad wiU be efceerfully
complied with, t What rejsson, then, can
there be ffer votingagailiStsubscription?
Tbe only one'givSn is, ! that 1 !* w ‘** in "
crease the. debt ,es the City, Why, life
debt ofihb Cily i! of- Augnrfta is not »o
immen*a,(t» -4> .f-ighten' i|* iuhabiWnts
That of Charleston counts by millions—
nomo fouj; or ovq, millloiis, we believe,
and the’ City Coundl of that City 4ms
recently WMbtf t# increase it some mil
lions more I While the entire debt of
Attfostp is but littlu over one million,,
and the present subscription' would in
crease it but SIOO,OOO mo**, with the
addition of $7,0Q0 interest per annum.
And this incruasbwoold really amount
to nothing, because it would bo much
more than balanced by . the benefits
which would otherwise accrue to the
City, and thp rilfoena generally.
Then, 100, it is an advantage to the
City to have good Railroad Stock. If
can be hypothecated. It can be esed
as collateral security in obtaining loans
if neneseary, Or it can be no\d some
lime or'other, perhaps, at a premium,
and thus irfog profit to the City, while
the dtvfifende upon it may pay the inter
estou the Subscription to the Stock.
- - These are, as we said above, some of
the advantages which will aeerue to the
City from the completion of the Colum
bia and Augusta Railroad, to this point,
which no#, we are informed, only re.
quires thie subscription to Secure Us
completion. It te, therefore,, for the
voters bf the City to consider calmly
whether or not these advantages more,
than counterbalance the objections-that
have been’ made to thie enterprise,
and it ia to be hoped that Qh to-day they
will go to the polls and give their votes
for “ Subscription.’* The question is an
important one, the interests ineoleed are
greet, and the tote should be a large
and fa(l one. ~■ Tu.
RSh. If .you hold stock in the Georgia
Railroad, vote for “Subscription" to-day.
The completion of the Columbia and
Augusta Railroad will enhance the value
of that stock. \ .
The Associated Press.
We have not expressed io odr/JMtper
any remarks in regard, to the difficulty
existing among this members of the
New York Associated Press, or rather
of .the discharge of the Superintendent
of that Association by the members, and
his starting a rival association, well
knowing that such discussion wou|d not
in the least interest our readers. Wljai
they want is the latest and most inter
esting news. And as we are merely the
agents .of our numerous readers, all the
interest we have in the matter is to pay
out thoney and endeavor to get "this
news. 1 r , r , ... c,J,
( Aeting in this capacity—ns caterers
for the;public—we must say that we are
very much d'spleased with the waj-'iu
which the Association baa been, and is,
at present, managed, though we confess
we do not exactly know who. we are get
ting uews 1-oin, whether from Mr. Craig,
or the old New York .Associated -Press.
We gef onr Southern. aud Western dis
patches from Mr. Walsh, who says he is
acting for Mr. Oaig, and we receive our
Northern news from Mr. Holland, w*>o
seems to be iu the employ of the old
Association. “*■ -'
Therefore, it would seem that we are
receiving -from two Associations. How
ever this may be, we 'must say we are
very unjustly treated. For Instance,
take our dispatches published yesterday
morning; we'have one-front Cinciu
nati announcing that “The Society -of
the Army of the Tennessee has met and
elected members for the year,” but we
are not informed of the price or sales
of grain and bacon in Cincinnati on
that day. The former is twaddle —the
latter is information.
Then again, in our dispatches this
morning, the cab’e informs us that a
paper in Vienua had stated “that ar
-ratigcmer.ts are being made which will
p.-obably pacify Europe,” and's Liver
pool dispatch of yesterday, published
this moruing, states that the “short
time movement among the cotton mills
of Lancashire is extending,” but it does
not say a word about tbe price or sales
of Cotton in Liverpool. To know that
information, we must refer to tbe meagre
reports ol the day prevfohs.
r Now all this is wrong, and the Asso
ciation that breaks up this humhaggery
will get all the patronage of the .South
ern press.
We cannot help thinking, however,
that if all the Southern dailies wmrld
unite in a meeting, say to be called by
our friend, Clark, of tbe Mobile Adver
tiser, President of the Southern Press
Association, good remedies might be
made, and our papers placed upon a
more independent aud advantageous
basis than they now oticapf.—C/iarle*-
ton Js’etcs, kept, 17.
We took the position some time ago
that the Associated Press was a North
ern institution. . One of our City cotem
poraries asserted, on the contrary, that
it wna a ‘general partnership, of which
every paper that payed for the news was
a member. Recent developments have
vindicated our position. The “New
York Associated Press'' has discharged
its General Agent, Mr. D. H. Craig, and
appointed Mr. Simonton in his place ;
and this without consulting the Augusta
“members” of the Association. In lact
all the recent occurrences go to show
that- it was a Northern Association ;
what it is now ’vfofiqpj - kp|)w, : This
fact, though, is very , evident that there
ip no A sab tinted Pres* ia Augusta. The
statement of the Asps is that the Agent
here is acting for Mr. Craig, and Mr.
Cgaig is not, noy, .with the
Associated Press. '
It will bq.eeen ,by tbe above article,
the ChaWfeston' 'Aisws, that -the
Associated Pfgss,aff;u™'are considerably
mixed up ; and we hope out of these
-Squabbles to get justice at .last. , ‘
The suggestion to have a meeting of
the Southern daily .newspapers is q very
good one, and meets with onr Hchrty
endorsement. ’ ■ . ■ '■>
