The Meeting At Folkston
For “The Short Route”
A chain is as strong as the weakest links. We are going
down to Folkston to-day %o help forge the last link in the chain of the
“Dixie Short Route” through. As is well known to the highway boosters:
the roads into Florids, from any direction, are very primitive; sparsely
settled sections have a scant chance of getting the attention of the coun
ty authorities anywhere, and it is no better in Florida than in Georgia.
Nassau county, thestrip through which the “ Short Route” passes, is remote
from the county seat, Fernandina, and the best that those veople can do
8 to arouse public sentiment in adjoining territory to call attention of the
neds. The meeting at Folkston is for that purpose. A large delegation
of Jacksonville people will attend, and every auto from Waycross has been
commanded by the county commissioners to carry the Ware county del
egation to Folkston. The success of the meeting will in a large measure
decide the final copstruction of the “short route.” We regret that vari
ous unforeseen circumstaces have caused a change in the program of the;
Fitzgerald delegation, but the matter is of so much importance that we
shall make the trip ourself and carry the message of co-operation to the‘
convention. ‘
.- The German Resources
Make no mistakes about Germany nearing the end of her re
sources. She captured the finest steel and gun works 1n the world
from the Belgians; great coal and iron mines from Northern France
and now she has wrested the rich oil lands of Galicia from the Russi
ans. Germany has captured_enough from the eremy to carry her for
a long tiwe,
.« Accounts by correspondents from the battlefields in the Kast
show how careful and methodical the Germans are in husbanding their
resources and seeing that nothing is wasted.
Where the Russians retreated in disorder arms and equipment
were thrown aside, helterskelter, Although many of the rifles were
of antiquated and simost useless patterns the Gemans gathered them
up acd carefully piledjthem for shipment to Germany. Not a scrap
of metal, leather or anything that could be utilized was left on the
battiefield; the ortcspondent says. The field was picked,clean, every
thing carefully and methodically assorted and put in heaps for the
& aosportalion wagons, (.
It is the German naturé to waste nothing. It will be'a long time
before & nation so eareful, where every detail is looked after, is at the
end of its resources.—Tifton Gazette.
