Of feverish commercial activity
one must be up to the times or
else fall back to the rear end of

THAT NEW DEPOT.
Now You See it and Now You Don’t
See It.
On August 15th the Georgia
Railroad commission visited Dal
ton to inspect the depot situation
there by request of the citizens,
and the commissioners were in
formed by Major J. W. Thomas,
president of the Nashville, Chatta
nooga and St. Louis, that it was
the intention of his company to
erect a new depot at Dalton within
a short time. The commission at
that time instructed.Major Thomas
to furnish a blue print of the plans
of the proposed new depot, and
this was done yesterday.
The plans were not passed upon
pending an effort on the part of
the Southern and the Nashville,
Chattanooga and St. Louis to reach
an agreement for the joint occu
pancy of the new depot. The cit
izens of Dalton as well as the rail
road officials and the members of
the commission prefer a union sta
tion to separate depots, and it is
for the purpose of allowing the I
roads to reach an agreement that 1 ors of present and subsequent i
,- cumbents shall be fleeted by the
electors of the whole State q Ua li-
action was deferred for the pres
ent.—Yesterday’s Constitution.
