to the State extending its aid to a measure
which will tend so directly to its injury.
In this connection, however, it may not be
improper for me to call the attention of the
General Assembly to the necessity which may
at any time be more fully developed, and is,
even at this time, becoming quite apparent, for
the State to protect its railroad property by the
extension of proper branches from the main
stem, either by construction or purchase; and,
with this view, I would respectfully recommend,
if proper arrangements and negotiations can be
effected for that purpose, that the State should
become the owner of what is known as the
“Rome Railroad"—a line running from King
ston, on the State Road, to Rome.
By our becoming owner of that property, we
could very properly extend it to the State tine,
or such further point as may be deemed desir
able, and, at the same time, prevent its ultimate
extension to a connection with the Memphis
road, in a manner to be injurious to the main
line of State Road. Or, in the event of a road
being constructed, or its construction seriously
contemplated, from Atlanta direct to Memphis,
it would be within the power of the State to ex
tend its own line, and thus make a junction
with the Memphis road, and thereby still retain
a large portion of its trade and travel.
I also feel constrained to invite the attention
of the General Assembly to a careful considera
tion of the many measures which are now
pressed upon its attention, asking the endorse
ment of the State, to a large amount, for the
benefit of roads which, in some cases, propose
to connect points already in almost direct com
munication by rail, and are, therefore, not at all
essential to the development of our resources,
nor profitable as an investment to the stock
holders; and are likely to result in leaving an
onerous burden of liability for such endorse
ments, upon the tax-payers of the State.
R. B. Bullock, Governor.

Atlanta, March 6, 1869./
To the Uoute of Bepresentaticee :
An Act to amend an Act to incorporate the
town of Jonesboro, county of Clayton; and an
Act amendatory thereof, is herewith respectfully
returned without the approval of the Executive.
By the 7th section of this Act, it is provided
as follows: “All persons who, under the laws
of this State, are entitled to vote for members
of the General Assembly, and who have resided
for three consecutive months immediately pre
ceding said election in the corporate limits of
said town shall vote, and none others."
The Constitution of the State guarantees the
elective franchise to all citizens who have resi
ded within the State six months, and within the
county in which they propose to vote thirty days
preceding the election. This section of the Act
is therefore in conflict with the Constitution.
The aforesaid seventh sedon further pro
vides : “And no person shall tbe deemed oligi-
Xttore than 130,000 now in nse.
