The Cedar Valley Trade.
Editor Courier—We all admit the
urgent necessity of taking some step to
prevent the loss of the trade of Cedar
Valley and the surrounding country.
A proposition was made and a com
mittee appointed at the last meeting of
the Chamber of Commerce to take cer
tain measures to accomplish this ob
ject.. Let us see as to-the advisability of
the proposition referred to. .
We are told that if the citizens of
Romo will subscribe say ten to twelve
thousand dollars to grade a branch road
from some point on tho S. R. & D. R.
R. to Cedartown, that there is a strong
probability (nothing more) that the
Georgia Southern Company will fur
nish the iron, and we will have a broad
gauge road to Cedartown. A good deal
was said about the great advantages of
this broad gauge connection—no trans
fers—no breaking of bulk; but a uni
form gauge all through, and thus we
have secured the trade of Polk with a
trifling expense. This, in brief, is the
proposition.
As a natural result of this movement,
tho S. 11. & D. R. R. will come into pos
session of this branch, and so control
the whole line. The writer has nothing
to say against the Selma road; he is
simply stating facts. Another fact is,
that Mr. West, of Cedartown, has 15
miles of broad gauge road between Car-
tersville and Taylorsville. From Tay-
lorsviBe to Cedartown is 22 miles; 10
miles already in operation of the three-
feet gauge, and work is actively going
forward on the remaining 12 miles,
which will complete Mr. West’s Cedar
town connection, This narrow gauge
is all being laid with a 40 lb. rail, which
is heavy enough for a broad gauge road
(tho Rome road is only 45 ]b.). Now,
all that is needed is Atlanta enterprise
and Atlanta monoy, and before we
know what has hurt us, this narrow
gauge is widened, and the 8 miles of’
broad gauge which Rome has helped to
build between Prior’s station and Ce-'
dartown forms a part of a line leading
direct to Atlanta, and controlled for the
most part by those who have such jeal
ousy of Rome’s power as a cotton mar
ket, that they will stop at nothing to
destroy her trade; and a determined
and surely successful effort will be
made to divert all freights, east and
west, between Atlanta and the 8. R. &
D. R. R., from the Rome road over the
newline. Can the Rome road afford
even indirect encouragement to this
movement? Mr. West will have 37
miles of road to operate. He must make
a bid for every pound of freight that
can be had, to make his investment
profitable, and in the writer’s opinion
it is easy to see that not only will Rome
lose a large part of the cotton which
she now gets from the line of the Sel
ma road, but she is actually about to
aid and abet her own destruction. Be
sides these points against us, Atlanta’s
next move may be to build' from Pri
or’s station to Gadsden, to the coal
fields—this being her nearest and
cheapest line, after the other links are
completed, and it is not difficult to see
how sadly we are hurt, with Atlanta
controlling a road through that territo-
ry which is naturally ours.
Now, leaving out altogether the pos
sibility of the line from Prior’s to Car-
tersville being all broad gauge, let us
suppose it part broad and part narrow
gauge. This necessitates transfers,
either to change the freight from one
car to another, or to change the trucks
under the cars. The first plan (the
great bugbear!) costs about 25 cents
per car. The second, to change the
trucks, is accomplished in about one
minute, and the testimony of the super
intendents of narrow gauge roads who
have adopted this plan, is that the broad
gauge cars are as much at home on the
small trucks as on the large oues.
The moral is plain: it will not do for
Rome to build this branch, if it connect
with any road which leads direct to her
competitor. Of course Rome will not
get any dividends from this line. The
money she will subscribe will be sim
ply a bonus to secure (?) the Cedartown
trade. She will not even get the benefit
of county taxes, as the road will lie
wholly in Polk county. Now comes
the question, what shall we do to pro
tect ourselves and keep this trade ? The
answer is plain and simple—the reme
dy cheap and dictated by sound busi
ness policy. It is this: accept Mr.
West’s proposition to build the road at
once from Rome to Cedartown if the
citizens of Rome will guarantee him
815,000, payable when the road is built.
This will give us the very line we need,
and the line which is the natural and
proper course of trade between Rome
and Cedar Valley. We run no risk
whatever in having this line. On the
contrary, its benefits are felt from the
very start, and the further south it ex
tends the more it helps us. It imme
diately increases our taxable property,
and brings more laborers and mechan
ics amongst us. The many advantages
of this line over the “Snake Pond and
Cedar Valley Broad Gauge Railway”
are bo plain that he who runs may
read.
The writer has no interest in the
matter beyond the prosperity of Rome.
Let our citizens think twice before they
adopt the plan proposed to our Cham
ber of Commerce. Such a policy is
short-sighted, and will prove a thorn in
our flesh which we cannot escape, ' If
Atlanta or Mr. West or the Georgia
Southern wants to build this lino let
them do it, but don’t let us furnish the
rope for our own hanging.
Roman,
Last Tuesday we witnessed the mar
riage of Mr. Ben Hill Elliott and Miss
Lillie Linton, at the Presbyterian
church, Rev. S. E. Axson, pastor, offi
ciating, who after a brief but beautiful
ly appropriate address to the young
couple, and receiving their assent to
the “marriage vows,” pronounced them
husband and wife.
The attendants on the occasion were:
Mr. W. M. Pentecost and Miss Flor
ence Linton.
Mr. S. W. Wright and Miss Bailie
Elliott.
Mr. J. C. Sproull and Miss Fannie
Freeman.
Mr. S. S. King and Miss Anne Sparks.
Mr. A. H. Sparks and Miss Stella
Morton.
Mr. Robt. H. Towers and Miss Ava
Wright.
A large number of friends attended
at the church, whose good wishes will
follow them through life. The newly
wedded pair with their attendants and
other friends drove from the church to
the steamer Magnolia, which was pre
pared for a pleasure tour down the
Coosa to Gadsden, Ala. The party is
expected at home this evening.
