FORSYTH, MONROE COUNTY-, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING. JULY 5, 1887
THE NEW WESTERN LINE- ]
A TALK WITH DR. WEST ON ITS
PROSPECTS.
The Entire Route Between Birmingham
and Savannah Located—The Enter
prise to Be Pushed to Completion.
Savannah Morning News.
Dr. J. A. A. West, who is the mov
ing spirit in the Birmingham and
Atlantic Air-Line railroad, is in the
city for the purpose of settling the
route between Savannah and the
Ogeechee river and locating an en
trance into the city. Mr. West said
last night that the Alabama and
Georgia divisons have now been con
solidated and the entire line is under
one company and one management.
The line has been located from Bir
mingham to within a few miles of
Savannah, passing through Roanoke,
Louina, Ashland, Talladga, La-
Grange, Thomaston, Macon and
Dublin. Two construction camps I
have been established between Sa
vannah and Macon, and another
would have been established yester
day but for the bad weather.
The road when completed will
give an air line to Birmingham, 125
miles shorter than any other line,
running through a country that will
compel only light grades and no
sharp curves.
GOOD RCTURNS ASSURED
The timbar interests lying in the
eastern division ot the road and the
agricultural interest further west will
alone support it after it is in opera
tion, not to speak of the immense
amount of mineral products that will
come from Birmingham. Besides
that, it will have air-lino connections
through to the great northwest by
means of the gulf railroad that will
afford a direct route to Kansas City.
Dr. West mentioned the fact that
the road will have an extensive ter
ritory all its own; a territory lying
between the East Tennessee, Vir
ginia and Georgia and the Georgia
Pacific cn the south and the Central
on the north.
ONLY GOOD WILL WANTED.
Thc a ffa irsof th c com pany, Dr. Wcs t
says, are in excellent condition, and
the men now behind the enterprise
have money and are willing to spend
it in building the road. All they
ask is the co operation 'of the people
who will share with them the advan
tages to be derived from it. This
has been freely extended by the
people along the line except at this
end. Here, despite tlie immense
profit that would result from the
building of the line, the officers say
there are some people who are pur
suing such a course in the matter ot
the right of way as i calculated to
involve the projectors in a multitude
of difficulties.
EXORBITANT DEMANDS.
A number of people who own land
through which the road would pass
are holding absolutely worthless
marsh land at fabulous prices. One
man who has a farm just thcothcr side
the Ogee'chec river had granted the
right of way over a part of his land
and on Friday he stood watching
the workmen grading over the re
maining portion without a thought
of stopping them. On Saturday he
came into the city, and, as J)r. West
expressed it, fell into the hands of a
lawyer. The result was that a mess
enger was sent to his farm ordering
work stopped, and the doctor was
informed that the company could
have the right of way for §2,000,
one-half cash and one-half in stock.
70 FREEZE THEM OUT.
Dr. West reports daily to the offi
cers of the company in New York,
and he said it was exceedingly dis
tasteful for him to have to report to
them that the land owners around
Savannah are throwing such obsta
cles in the way of the work, and to
avoid it ho has telegraphed tor a
corps of engineers, who will be in
the field within forty-eight hours
surveying anew route.
lie says that if nothing else can
bo done, the railroad company will
avail itself of the very explicit laws
that govern rights of way, condemn
the land, and it the owners demand
exorbitant prices let a jury deter
mine a fair valuation, lie says that
as the general manager of the com
pany, he is prepeared and willing to
give just and fair compensation for
any damages done by the building
of the line, but be will not submit to
extortion.
While here he proposes to ask the
city council to advise him what
streets he can have for terminal fa
cilities.
Marshavillk Tim es : Wild goose
plums sell readily at 81 per bushel
on the trees, and five bushels are
often gathered from a single tree.
It is as impossible to glut the market
with those plums as with cotton or
corn. Now take your pencil and
make a calculation. You put 170
trees on one acre ; at 85 per tree you
get 8850. Divide that by two for
disasters, and you have 8425 per acre
profit. Or divied by five, and you
have 8170 clear profit to the acre, if
sold on the trees. If you prefer
shipping you may safely double the
above figures.

NOT THE FIRST STEAM WAGON.
One of Maine’s Sons Thinks He Can
Drive Ills Cart a Mile a Minute.
From the Lewiston Journal.
“The rich can ride in chaises,” and
the}' can ride in a steam wagon, too,
if they will come to Lewiston and
essay what the teeming brain ot a
remarkable Lewiston inventor has
attained. In the first place it is a
wagon. It is built on the principle
ot a grocery wagon. Some of the
extra heavy grocery teams on the
street might have served for the ba
sis of the contrivance, except the in
ventor, Edwin F. Field, desired that
it be extra strong, aud so he had the
wheels and axle and cross-bars, ect.,
built a trifle heavier than on the or
dinary grocery wagon. Its shape 13
the same. Its wheels are tne same
in size and shape. Its wagon body
is exactly the same as that of the
ordinary delivery wagon, with iron
bands. The boiler, which is upright
sits on the rear axle. Power is ap
plied by cogged wheels to the roar
axle, to which the bind wheels are
rigidly affixed, so that the movement
of the machinery propels the wagon.
The front wheels are independant of
machinery, and are simply steeling
gear. The engine is a double cylin
der condensing engine, controlled
by the link motion, exactly as in the
locomotive.
It can be reversed or stopped
from the driver’s seat. Water is
earned in a small tank under the
wagon bed. The engine exhausts
into the boiler—the exhaust being
easily controlled from the driver’s
seat. The boiler is a five-horse pow
er, tested to 400 pounds pressure,
and capable of carrying 300 pounds
without the slightest difficulty. The
engines develop four-horse power
with 100 pounds pressure, or twelve
horsepower with 300 pounds.
With hard coal, the boiler will
make no smoke or steam. The de
sign of the builders is to conceal ev
erything’ and they expect, when fin
ished, that the contrivance will not
be very odd in appearance, and that
it will not frighten horses any more
than a bicycle or a street sprinkler.
Every portion of the machinery is
made with the view to strength.
Various inventions on the boiler
make it specially valuable, yrhile
every part of the engine has been
designed and built expressly icy v ho
purpose, arid is full ot odditis ',” i
its l ntiouo. TU
the wheels iron-hnbbed. The bifid
wheels are 13 feet in diameter. The
water tank holds half a barrel, and
would suffice fora run of twenty-five
miles.
“Have you ever run it ?” was asked
of Mr. Field. “Yes,” was the reply.
“We have worked the engines and
wheels, but haven’t tried it on the
ground yet. It was a groat success.
The hind wheels went in a perfect
buzz. We estimated it at 800 revo
lutions a minute ; and as the carriage
1 will advance about five feet a rev
olution, we reckon that, making due
allowance, the wagon would have
been going considerably faster than
a two-minute clip. 1 dou’t particu
larly see any limit to the attainment
ot speed except the courage of the
driver.”
Mr. Field has about completed the
machine. A description does it no
sort of credit, and the public should
see it to appreciate it. There is no
sort of doubt but that the machine
will go, and that it can be steered
and controlled. From the wayside
brook the water tank can bo filled,
and from the coal looker the fires of
the boiler. Mr. Field thinks that
the machine can go a mile a minute.
He will have the hind wheels drilled
and corrugated for teeth, provided
there is not friction enough ; but he
says that ho has no fear about the
friction.

A Bald Man’s Invention.
St. Louis Republican.
I have only known of one instance
wher baldness proved remunerating.
A friend of mine who had a shining
pate fell, into the habit of watching
the actions ot his tormentors—the
flies. He noticed that a fly always
walked upward. Put a fly on a
window and up he goes toward the
top ; he cant be made to walk down
ward. So my bald headed friend
hit upon an idea. Why not use that
habit against them? lie forthwith
made a window screen divided in
half. The upper half lapped over
the lower, with an inch of space be
tween. Well as soon as a fly would
light on a screen it would proceed to
travel upward, and would thus walk
straight out-dooors. On reaching
the top of the lower half he would
be outside. Not being able to walk
down he had nonvay to return to the
room. By this means a room can
be quickly cleared ot flies, which
always seek the light. My friend
has got out a patent, and proposes to
begin a systematic war against the
household pests.

A Suggestive Story.
Morning Xews.
Soon after the close of the war six
3-o uner men entered college from a
small town in Georgia. They were
the sons of gentlemen who had been
fortunate enough to save something
from the wreck caused In* the aboli
tion of slavery and the invasion of
the Federal armies. The young men
ranked well in college, and when
their course was completed they*
were fairly equipped for making a
living. Five of them became law
yers and one of them a doctor of
medicine.
Of the five who entered the legal
profession one became dissatisfied
with his pocuniary gains at the end
of two years and made up his mind
that he would have nothing more to
do with courts and juries, lie de
termined he would educate himself
to work with his hands. Accordingly,
he went to Massachusetts and enter
ed a school of technolog}'. lie had
just money enough to pay his expen
ses during his course, and, eonse
quently, mode the most of his oppor
tunities. lie graduated as a skilled
machinist, and at once sought em
ployment in the shops of a railroad
in a state which borders on Georgia,
llis employers were not slow to
discover that lie was of great value
to them, so they gradually promoted
him until he became Superintendent
of the shops with a salary of §2,500
a }’ear. Under his guidance the
employes became hotter workmen.
In the course of time the owners of
the railroad found it unnecessary to
send north for engines and cars, for
the young Georgian demonstrated
that the}- could he built in the shops
under his control. The president of
an Illinois railroad made his ae
quantance, and was favorably im
pressed by his ability. The result
was an offer of the position of
su]>erintendent of large railroad
shops in an Illinois city. The salary
was §3,500. When the owners of
the railroad for which the young
Georgian was working were informed
of the offer, they said : “Stay with us ;
we will give you §5,000 a year.” He
stayed. In less than a year 110 was
made general superintendent of the
railroad, with a salary of §7,500 a
year. Subsequently, he was offered
a position as general superintendent
of a Canadian railroad, lie accepted
the.offer, and he now receives for his
T n’e men V/hor, the
young Georgian left in his native
town continued their struggle to win
fortune and renown. Two of the
lawyers have served terms in the
general Assembly. Only one of
them has made and saved as much
as §IO,OOO. Two have property
worth, perhaps, §2,500 hut they are
dependent upon their practice for
their living. The fourth would have
starved if he had not had his father’s
assistance. The physician is still
alive, hut ho has saved nothing and
is in debt.
The story of these young men
teaches a lesson. The professions of
law and medicine in Georgia are so
crowded that only a few can make
reputation and money in them. The
man, however, whose mind and
hands arc educated can hardly fail
to take a high position and to gain a
competency, if not a fortune.

Free Baggage Delivery.
At a recent meeting of the Vander
bilt general passenger agents at Sar
atoga it was agreed tiiat, commen
cing July, 1, all the Vanderbilt lines
will cheek baggage free to and from
the residences of passengers between
any of the following important cities:
V ew York, Boston, [Albany, Saratoga,
Buffalo, Cleveland, Cineinati, Indian
apolis, Chicago and St. Louis. The
passenger purchses his ticket at the
regular rate, and the company’s ag
ent calls at his residence, checks his
baggage, and delivers it to him again
at any specified place within the
limits of the city to which he is des
tined. This is an important and
commendable advance in railroad
passenger travel, and will doubtless
have to he followed by other lines.
It will be rather severe on Jhackmen
and transfer companies, hut it will
be a great accommodation as well
as an economy to the passenger
whose way lies from one of the above
cities to another. Several lines have
talked of adopting this system of
free baggage delivery, hut the only
points between which it is now in
vogue are New York and Philadel
phia. The Pennsylvania railroad
adopted it between those two cities
some months ago.

Blackmail on Rampage.
Under the above heading, and
speaking of the opposition in the
northern states to the president’s
recent order for a return of the battle
flags to the southern states the
Courier Journal says:
Nobody in the south, certainly no
southern state and no Confederate
soldier, cares a nickle whether the
battle-flags are returned or not. If
there be a single soldier of the north
who would retain them as trophies,
he is welcome to all the glory and
all the display which they can recall
to his mind or bring to his heart.
To us they mean nothing whatever.
Assuredly, they betoken no greater
loss on the side of the north than on
that of the south, and, to sound and
healthy understanding, it is incon
ceivable how their possession can bo
a matter of moment or concern to
any patriotic bosom. As well might
wo rejoice in the perservation and
exhibition of the bloody-paraphcrn
alia of the hospital, or tho rotting
cerements of the grave.

know as little of war as they care
about truth—quite carried away by
their own slaughter of epithets and
overcome by the iust of conquest by
proxy—should air their verbose
finery and sport a spurions patriot

matter is boiled down to an essence,
