The Progress of the Survey of the Colum

The <'iiHi hert Liberal Wants It to Come that way*
Notes About the Georgia Midland—The Georgia.
Carolina and Northern—A Meeting in Alliens.
The engineer corps under Assistant Engineer
Cowan has reached Dawson, probably, by this
time. On the 23d they were between Weston
and Dawson. The corps will reach Albany in
about one week, when it will return and start to
run the other line. In the meantime, we learn
profiles, maps and estimates will be prepared of
the Hue to Albany. From all the information
we can gather there seems to be no trouble about
bitiding this road so far ns its feasibility in con
cerned. It is eminently practicable and the pe -
pie interested know how badly needed it is. Be
low wc give a clipping from the Cuthbert Liberal
concerning the road from a Cuthbert standpoint.
We think we risk nothing in saying Columbus is
compelled to build this road to some point. The
certain loss of much of our trade already, and
the new encroachments now being
made upon Columbus territory, behooves
our people to see to it that Columbus does her
Dill duty, and she will do it—rely on that. If
Chattahoochee, Stewart, Webster, Terrell and
Daugherty feel a like interest it is time we were
consulting together. Then if the other route to
Bainbridge is feasible and shows up attractively,
the people interested will no doubt make the in
ducements fully known, when a decision can be
intelligently reached. A committee from Cusseta
will visit this city Tuesday in the interest of that
place. They come backed by a proposition, we
hear, and desire to confer with Mr. G. Ounby
Jordan. It will be a matter of surprise to many
of our readers to know the survey on this south
ern road shows an elevation of 100 feet over
Columbus twenty miles south of us. The En
quirer-Sun lias in and out of Beason done its
share to assist in the development of this sec
tion. We believe in this southern railroad. Let
us act together and get it.
The Cuthbert Liberal wants the Columbus and
Florida railroad to come that way, and has the
following to say on the subject:
“While the Enquirer-Sun is so enthusiastip over
the upper route, we have no apprehension as to
the route that will be finally determined upon
when Chief Engineer Green and Engineer Cowan
have finished the survey of the upper and lower
routes, especially when such a practical business
man us G. Gunby Jordan is at the head of the
company that will make the decision The route
which travels closest the Chattahoochee valley,
whose cotton naturally belongs to Columbus, is
the one that will prove most beneficial to Colum
bus. After crossing the A., P. nnd L. road, iho
cotton over the proposed upper route will, from
farce of habit, go eastward unless extraordinary
inducements are offered to turn it toward Colum
bus. The cotton of Chattahoochee, Stewart and
Quitman counties has long been the legitimate
tribute of Columbus. If the road be built over
tho upper route, the cotton of the whole of Quit-
man and the we* tern half of Stewart counties
will most probably be diverted from Columbus for
all time to come, with no compensating gain from
the caster^ half of Stewart and western half of
Webster counties The lower route will certain
ly save to Columbus all the cotton bf Stewart and
Quitman counties, and of the Greater part of Ran
dolph county, a great deal of which war formerly
shipped up the river, until the uncertainly i f
navigation in the cotton season turned it in an
other direction. The unbroken and almost inex
haustible pine forests of the counties south of
Randolph, oiler an inducement equally as great
as vhe cotton of the counties north of us. This,
iftii3 upper route should bo selected, would
he lost to Columbus and to the ro\d,
with no compensating gain in kind. The
lover route offers the most direct route to
Florida with the advantage (if* a road be built
from this point to Albany) of three Atlantic ports
and as many gulf ports through which to reach
foreign markets. The lower route off rs so many
more and greater inducements thut we cannot
for a moment doub*. that the read will be built
by Cothbert to Bainbridge. Still, our people
must keep those inducements continually and
prominently before the projectors of the road,
and oiler such other reasonable inducements as
they may ask, in order to make its building this
way a certainty. The day of building railroads
to people who are not willing to pay something
for them is past. What people want must be
asked for and paid for now days.”
Georgia Midtund Echoes.
The trains will pass over So.vahachee trestle by
Wednesday. Then there are no streams for six
or eight mile , and only small ones then; so track
laying will rapidly progress from now on.
Daylight will show through the tunnel by De
cember 20. The work progresses both day and
night.
All the camps this side have been mot ed to the
uorQi side of the inoimtaiu except one. That one
will move December 15.
About four miles of grading have bceu com
pleted between the tunnel anil Flint River.
The Flint river piers are going up rapidly, the
centre pier being nearly up to the bridge seat.
The south pier is above high water mark. These
piers are of granite and are of splendid quality.
They are substantial and imposing in appear
ance.
Ninety per cent, of the gradit g between the
river and Griffin lias been timsned, so that there
are sixty-six miles of the Midland now graded.
Chief Engineer Greene and Ool. Dickinson, the
general contractor, havejust made a personal in
spection of the wnole line to Griffin. Col. Dick
inson will have his grading torce from tnc rail
road he has been building in North Carolina
moved down to the Midland this week. They
are now on the way here. This force will grade
tho first six miles from Griffin toward McDon
ough, where the Midland reaches the East Ten
nessee railroad system. This acids materially to
the working force on the Midland, and is an
earnest of the quick construction of this impor
tant road.
The first two passenger coaches will arrive this
week. They were shipped on the 17th. These
are Pennsylvania railroad staadard cars. In
January the road will get its first installment oi
the most elegant passenger coaches ever seeu in
the south. The Jackson & Sharp Company
promise to exceed themselves in this contrajt.
A wrought iron turn-table for the Columbus
yard will soon arrive. Like everything else the
construction company has purchased, it will be
the best known in the market.
Three side tracks are now about finished at the
Columbus terminal. The main track reaches to
the Star Park enclosure. This track will all be sur
faced up and ready forbusiuess in a few days.
The construction company bought during the
past week ail the Star Park improvements, and
will immediately tear them away to provide for
depots, shops and other terminal facilities.
The depot sites have now been established for
every station on the road. The demand for lots
at all the important points is large and urgent.
This points to an immense local business for the
road. Such a country us the Midlaud traverses
is obliged to rapidly develop.
Since our last notice of tho Midland’s progress
another lot of freight cars have arrived. The Co
lumbus freight yard begins to look alive with
equipment.
Trains will reach Waveriy Hall soon, when a
regular schedule will be put ou the road. Su
perintendent Gray has beou busy the past week-
preparing his tariff and rules. General Hoke’s
new road from Monroe to Athens, when it be
gins actual construction, could not commend
itself to the people more certainly than by imita
ting the business methods of the Midland. The
best work and best equipment is cheapest at
last. That is the motto of the Midland people.
Three train loads of ties arrived from out on the
South western road Friday and Saturday for the
Midland. The t*e contractors have ties already
cut. twenty miles ofties ahead. They have 250
hands now cutting ties in Meriwether and Pike
counties in addition to the force at work on the
Southwestern and the Mobile and Girard rail
roads.
The Evening Ledger says : The Georgia Mid
land will roach Waveriy Hall in a few days, when
a regular schedule will be put on. Everybody
who has seen the work done on the road says
that it Is the best work they ever saw done on a
new road. Mr. Gunby Jordan said it should be,
and all who know, the man believed his promise
would be kept to the letter.
Gcoririii. Carolina and Northern.
We learn that ft meeting of those interested in
Ibe building of the Georgia, Carolina and North
ern railroad will be held at Athens on December
0. This enterprise is backed up by the Pennsyl
vania Central and is a continuation of the roads
comprising the seaboard route, at the head of
which is Mr. John Robinson, whose push and
enterprise make him a formidable rival for south
ern business. The road, if built, will only be the
consummation of a scheme which he has long
cherished. We understand that it is contem
plated by this company to connect with the Geor
gia Midland.
