Gordon’s Wealth. j
When Senator Gordon gave !
his seat in the United States Senate ,
because he was too poor to hold it, ,
a great many people thought he had j
done a very foolish thing. His sue
cess in bis railroad ventures, as giv
en by the Atlanta Consul ution, j
shows that he did not over tale his i
ability as was supoosed. ft rends I
like the story of Aladdin and the
Wonderful Lamp, ami we give it as
a matter of interest to our readers.
IVhen General Gordon, M j. E.
C. Gordon, Mr. W. S- Gordon and
Governor A. II. Colquitt determin¬
ed fo raise a company to build a
road from Atlanta to the Mississippi
river, they had thiee item on which
to base their claims.
1st. And appropriation of $100,
000 cash from Abeideen aud Col
limbus each, and $150,000 from
Monroe county in Mississippi—ag¬
gregating $350,000.
2d. A large quantity of coal
lands, very much over 100,000 acres
which, at the value of surrounding
lauds ($20 per acre), was worth
from $2,000,000, $3,000,000. The
deeds tor these lands were m tbe
shape of “grants”—deliverable when
tbe road was finished.
3d. Several important Charters,in
eluding tlie (»toig.a estern, on
which tln-v had a dear profit of
-
$200,000, v ’ ’ counting the trade wi hi
Colonel Cole—two valuable , , , char.. ,
anil Mississippi. . .
tets property ' 1 in
the , ng.it-of .
and 100 miles ol way.
These items of property ami fran¬
chises, bii. fly summed above, they
determined to value $700,000 ca-h.
This valuation was reached after
consultation 1 with Mr. Jewett and
other gentlem * n interested . with; I
them in the organization ° of tbe i
tins . :
Georgia Pacific On ,, ,
company.
basis—that lhe company should
take the property and pay the
Gordons $700,000—the
Pacific company was organized—
Mr Jewett, C. H Pimuzy, Geuev
a! Anderson, S nator B.iruum and
others taking large amounts and
!>. coining directors, The surveys
of the new mud wete ordered, and
wor k commenced at both ends. All
tin: stock wus taken, and more could
have been sold.
A ! this juncture some gentlemen
connected wi h the Richmond ami
Danville railroad opened negotia
linns for a combination with the
Georgia Pacific. The Gord.-ns b id
sought ihe alliance with the road at
fi'-st, but it had refused to value
their properties at the price they
so - on them. They ( fibred to allow
$250,000 for them The Gordons
asked $700,000. After they hal
made tip their company on this has
is, the Richmond and Danville peo
Die offered to go in on the basis of
$700,000.
Seeing that two roads were about
to be built where one c >uld do the
work, the Gordons closed a con
tract with the Richmond and Dan
people. The , ot , this
viile terms
contract were that tile Gordons
slioul/i he paid $700,000 in cash and
allowed a certain amount of
and that their properties should
then be , turned , over to the , un “Geor
gta Pacific’’— comjvosed of Rich
rn<» nd aud Danville people and the
Gordons and their associates, and
tiiat General Gordon should be
president of tbe combined compa
ny.
Tins trade was made months ago.
In taci, it was made the day be
fbre the organiz ttiuti of the Geor
gia Pacific \v is announced, and
details have been perfecting ever
since. It w as also, ftg: eed that, the
con t,-act for building the

Danville extension company. This — •
company has a capital ol $5,00(1,000,
which is held by the Richmond and
'
Danville peonle and by the Gor
(] ons and their associates.
The Richmond and Dinville ex
tension company has been arrang..
ing ever since to take hold of its
contracts and finish it. Variou

The Law of Advertising.
We call the especial attention of
Col. John I>. Estes, our immediate
representative, to the manifest in¬
justice to the people in lhe present
law of legal advertising. When
any public matter is to be advertis¬
ed, it should be done in that paper
—not. papers—having the largest
circulation in the county, or- at
least in the district affected by the
advertisemnts. Therefore, that
little fraudulent clause, in these
words; “Ora general circulation,”
o(jghl w fae striokon out . Simply
jj ecalIse an 0 fl5 cer j,as some special
pet which , , . he wishes . .
newspapers to
to give Ins patronage is no reason
why as many ag on perhaps of just
as good , citizens as supports ... his
naper, shou'd be without the legal
advertisements to gratiiy a purely
personal preference of the'officer.
T he masses of the people don’t care
for these little political or personal
. likes dislikes .. ih. , their ,
or v want
work . done . such , will ... do .
in a way as
the most good , to , tbe greatest ninn.
her in as much as ii is paid for by
all parties, without reference to pol¬
itics, religion, race, color or previ..
ous condition of servi tide, We
hope Colonel Estes, especially, and
the Legislature, generally, will see
to it that public printing has prop¬
er competition, as well as rail/oada
and nil other pinchbaek monnpli, s.
There . is nothing wrought the long.

A Pennsylvania millionaire doubt¬

feigned death to see how his rela¬

and he not only had a devil of a
time to escape being buried alive,
but they had got bis estate into
probate, and they tried to put him
into the lti-ane asylum, and he had
to work two years to get in his
rights again. It is unnecessary to
state that he has left his estate to a
