Jail Delivery.
Bartow Green and Henry Spriggs,
confined in Whitfield county jail on a
charge of burglarizing John Thomas’
residence in September last, made
their escape Monday evening about
half past two o’clock bv forcing the
staple that held the -Jock of the inside
cage door, or “-dinner door,” as it is
called. A-^erwards they used the bar
of tne cage door and forced the bolt of
cne main door of the prison cage, which
was secured from, the outside. This
left them free to descend the steps that
led to the outer door, which they did
without noise, spreading their blankets
down the^stairway and walking upoa
them. When the outside door, next
to the court house, was reached, they
had nothing to do but turn the key and
make their escape, which they did in
double-quick ‘time.
The jailer, Mr. Durham, was absent
from the jail at the time on official busi
ness, and their flight was not discover
ed until too late to recapture them.
The culprits were certainly very bold
in their undertaking, as they chose the
broad daylight for their escape. Ordi
nary Freeman and county commission
ers Henderson and Greer examined
the cpndition of the ‘ cell from which
the prisoners made their escape, and
they say no blame whatever can be at
tached to Mr. Durham in the matter.
Another Victim.
The dead body of an unknown ne
gro boy was found near the railroad
track just this side of G. M. Keith’s,
about two miles and a half south
Dalton, last Saturday morning. From
appearances the negro had been killed
by a train, though it* is not known
which road did the killing, as the E.
T., V. & G. and the W. & A. run paral
lel for six miles south of town. The
prevailing supposition is that the de
ceased was tramping the track at night
and was overtaken by a train before be
could step out of barm’s way, or had
seated himself upon a cross tie to rest,
had fallen asleep and was killed by a
passing' train. A coroner’s inquest
was held and a verdict about as we
have stated above was retarned. The
negro was a stranger in Dalton, and
we failed to learn his name.
There has been quite a number of
fatal accidents of a similar character
at that particular part of the road,
among which was the tragic death of
the wealthy Boston banker, a number
of years age?, who fell from the slip
pery platform of an express train one
wintry night, and was horribly man
gled, six freight trains following hav
ing passed ovdr his body before it was
discovered the liext morning.

Fire Test—Dower Insurance Kates.
One of the agents of the Southeast
ern Tariff Association of Insurance,
was here this week for the purpose of
re-rating the insurance of the town,
and our Daltoi^ fire companies gave
him a test of on* water works in case
of fire. The fir<^ boys were at the place
where the fire whs supposed to be in
less than three minutes after the fire
bell was radg, Had had their ladders up
the side of the-’building, their men on
top of it and hose; playing on different
portions of. the building, with two or
more heavy streams of water, in less
than a minute after their arrival on
the ground. They certainly acquitted
themselves handsomely and showed
what they could have done in suppres
sing a fire had there really been one.
The agent was highly pleased with the
which he said wag^a-fi-aa _ a dis-
of the kind ag/he had ever. wit-
and'also^faid that Dalton had
as rrr.fTrr-^gyptengj °f wa ter works as he
knew of anywhere. We learn that he
will reduce the insurance on Hamilton
street 33 to 50 per cent from what it
has heretofore been.

Mor° About the Cranberry Route.
A representative of the Citizen met
Col. Sam. Field, State Senator, last
Monday, and after the usual saluta
tions, the following colloquy ensued:
“Colonel, what about that big rail
road t scheme you told us about the oth
er day ?” said the Citizen. “Are there
any new developments?”
“You mean the proposed extension
of the Baltimore and Ohio, known as
the Cranberry route?”
.“Yes, sir.”
“Well, from present indications, it
looks as if the project would actually
become a reality. There are men of
brains and immense capital backing
the venture, and I am told that just as
soon as a charter can be obtained work
will begin and the road pushed right
along. The syndicate is determined
to connect the Cranberry mines with
the Birmingham iron fields, and they
say nothing will suit so well as an in
dependent air-line. A bill for a char
ter is now pending in the Legislature.
“Do yon thinkit will be granted?”
“Yes, I feel pretty confident of it.—
Bill Glenn is engineering the bill
through the lower bonse and your hum
ble servant is doing all he can in the
Senate.”
“Will the road come by Dalton?”
“According to the contemplated route
it certainly will, and you can just bet
it will do more for the development of
our section than most anything else
you could think of. Bat there’s the W,
& A. train. I must be off. Will tell
you more about the matter when I come
up next time.”
Marriage of an Old Dalton Boy.
The Atlanta Journal 1 of Tuesday
last contained the following bit of in
teresting news:
“Mr. J. A. Farnsworth and Miss Mag
gie Harris, will be married to-night at
100 Crew Street, by the ftev. W. F,
Glenn, of this city The marriage cer
emony will be private, only a few inti
mate friends and relatives being pres
ent. After the ceremony the wedded
couple will go to their own little home,
where they will begin life under the
most auspicious circumstances. Mr.
Farnsworth is a member of the firm of
M. C. and J. F. Kiser, and is a young
man esteemed by a host of friends.
Miss Harris is a young lady of many
lovable qualities of heart and mind,
and to them The Journal tenders its
best wishes that the clouds of life may
ever show their silver lining.”

The W. A A. Lease.
The renewal of the lease of the West
ern and Atlantic Railroad is the ab
sorbing question of Georgia legislators.
Many bills, differing in their provis
ions and powers, have been introduced,
one or two of which is to make an out
right sale of this splendid piece of
property. The plan of Hon. W. H.
Felton, member of the lower house,
favors an absolute lease, and seems,
from press opinion, to *be obtaining
popular indorsement and support
The Atlanta Journal of last week con
tained an interview with Dr. Felton,
m which the nestor of the Georgia
Legislature said:'

Chamberlin, Johnson & Go.,
every
quarter except the West by way of the
old State road, and it is for the people
of Georgia, through their representa
tives here, to throttle this monster now,
or let it tighten its fatal python coils
around as. I hope to see Georgia res
cued from this peril. It lies within the
power of this legislature to save the
state from this monstrous evil, or to
insidiously gain possession of every
road into or oat of the State and place
the people at the mercy of unscrupu
lous conspirators.
“My other object is the declaration
of war upon the monopolies themselves.
I will not be content with preserving
to the state the only avenue of com
merce untainted by the grasp of the
monopolist and baron, but I wish the
state, as the sovereign she is, to throw
down the gage of battle, wrest her
highways from the mastery of these
conspirators, and place her naked
sword across the -narrow path which
leads to the rights and liberties of her
people.
“This session is drawing rapidly to
a close. The legislature will adjourn
in a few weeks, and the fight against
these combinations and conspiracies
must be deferred until next summer.
“All that we can hope to do at this
time is to settle the question of the
lease of the W. & A The committee
of the Western & Atlantic has before
it three bills, one of which it will re
port favorably.
“Mr. Harrell’s bill is to sell or lease
the road.
Mr. Howell’s is to lease it specifi
cally.
“My bill is to lease the road abso
lutely.
“Under the provisions of my bill the
minimum terms of lease are $35,000 per
month for a term of twenty years;
$41',000 per month for a term of thirty
years; or $45,000 per month for a term
of fifty years.
“The State road has always paid
handsomely. Even the East Tennes
see has not injured it enough to mate
rially lessen its revenue. For the past
four years, tt at is, since the building
of the East Tennessee, the net earn-
of the State road have averaged
1,000 per annum. Some years ago
Gov. Brown testified that the road
ought to pay $600,000 annually into
the state treasury. The local traffic of
road is increasing wonderfully. In a
few years the iron business alone will
give it more than a single track can
handle. In my county, Bartow, there
are now building three furnaces. One
for iron, one for malleable iron and one

merchants and business men. This
seems to meet a long-felt want in our
community. Ever since the war there
has been a certain class whose aim
seems to be to get goods on a credit,
never caring whether they pay for them
or not. This will break up, to a certain
extent, the easy, don’t care habits these
people have fallen into and make them
stand on their honor in the future, or
it, this is not a dead beat or black list.
It is a Retail Commercial Report, and
the consumer must be educated by the
merchant to feel that biB credit is, and
should be, valaable. The ratings of
this agency, although they refer more to
moral character, show nearly as much
difference jn the stapding of parties as
do the wholesale commercial reports.—
When consumers understand, as they
should, that this Report puts them in
the same relation with the creditor that
the commercial reports places tbe retail
dealer with the wholesale trade, then
this agency’ ‘Will' ‘have accomplished
