rich fields, wonderful minerals, grow
ing towns and already considerable
wealth.
From Cedar town to Prior’s then
is already a rou e grad d. It was part
of the projected route of the Chero
kee railroad, but is now controlled
by the Cherokee iron works. This
ccm pany will give s : x miles of grs e
if the r aid is carried by Cedartown.
W idle there is everything to com
mend this mute on the Fore of
economy, it has other powerful rea
sons in its favor. Ttwil pass through
a eoi nty rich aud pro;j>i-r.;us; thick
ly populated and fast growing, There
are huge f rests of pine; immense
I beds of slate and such enormous de
posits of iron as seldom found any
where. The business of a road
through such a s -c ion, both in
freight a .d passenger Lo lls, would
be very great. The lower route can
not offer such inducements. Outside
of jonsid rations already mentioned,
Atlanta has a grave interest at stake in
this matter. It cannot he duub'ed
for a moment that it is best for At
lanta that the road should pass by
Cedartown. This thrifty town of
2,600 people now trades principally
with Atlanta, but the new route
would fatte l her commetce to the ci
ty as a permanent source of revenue
increasing ail the while. B-sides
this, Cedartown will receive 10,000
bales of cotton this year. All this
will go to Rome, as Rome .s 20 miles
nearer than Atlanta by rail and Only
20 miles distant by wagon road.
YViihthe new road, A Lama would
get every bale of this cotton, and the
increase of receipts would be such
that we could safely count on 12,000
biles a year fr-m this source. The
railroad route to Atlanta would oe
.shortened fully 18 miles and Cedar
town be put only 65 miles away by
rail. One of the committee, an ex-
p rienced cotton merchant, says lie
believes the construstion of the road
by Cedartown to Gadsdeti would in
crease the cotton receipts of Atlan'a
fully 30,000 bales a year. This is
not idle talk. It is the opinion of
s 'n3ible, practical men, who have ex
amined the subject and know wh. t
they are talking about. There seems
no reason to doubt that the Georgia
Western will go by Cedartown and
put Atlanta in more direct communi
cation with one of the most prosper-
ous and promising of the smaller
cities of Georgia. The people of At
lanta will favor such a route, and in
the proper way will do all they can
to encourage it. There will be no
difficulty about the direction of tha
thirty miles of the road already gra
ded from this point It is noi atfall
certain that the line indicated will
he used in construo’ing the road, but
if it is th re will be needed very lit
tl ■, if any deflection, to carry it; by
C .dartown. The people of this en
terprising little city are wide awake
on the subject aud th-ir efforts will
be felt Their committee will return
home to day.

Atlanta Con-titntiou of Yesterday.
Yesterday Mayor YV. F. Turner,
Major J. A. Blanc.', Messrs. A. Hun
ting and I!. T. I’oole, of (J d-triown,
acting as representatives of that live
little cry, came to Atlanta to s-c
some representative of the Louis
ville and Nashville railroad. Fail
ing to find any one who could stand
in this capacity, they cubed ou Col.
R. F. .Maddox, who has been inti
mately connected with the negotia
tions of the Louisville and Nash
ville for the purchass of the Ge >rgia
YVes 'em.
A r-porter of the Constitution met
them in company with Col. Maddox,
and in the conversation which en
sued he learnoJ much which was
interesting and important to the
people of Atlanta. These gentle.,
men came to Atlanta to trv and in
duce the construe ion of the Geor
gia Western by way of Cedartown.
They presented their case fully and
clearly by such reasons as cannot be
overlooked.by the authorities which
have the future of the road in their
charge. In the first place, if the
road is run on an air-line from At
lanta to Decatur, the objective
point, it will pas$ directly through
Cedartown. A line drawn icruss the
mip by a rule from Atlanta to De
catur will pass through Cedartown.
Tnis, then, is sure to be the route
if the road is to be made as direct,
and as short as possible. But there
is a great pressure iu favor cf- car
l-ytng it by Gadsden, anil the pro
bability is that by Gadsden it will
go. Even if it does the claims ol
Cedartown will not be impaired.
An air-line from .Atlanta to Gads
den would pass four miles south of
Cedartown. But if the road is con
structed in a direct line it will meet
just at this point, lour miles trom
Cedartown, a chain of hills which
would be impassable save at a great
expense. Between these hills and
Cedartown there lies the beautiful
and productive Cedar valley with
its mineral wealth of untold im
mensity. This valley invites the
road and is the natural way for the
proposed route. It will be f*r cheap
er to build the road by Cedartown,
and thence to Gadsden. There is a
natural level which will requite only
a few miles of heavy gracing ami
that is pear Cave Spring. After
passirfg Cedar valley iliis routs wt 1
pass through Van’s valley, also rich,
1 vel, and every wav attractive. The
r ute to Gadsden will then be ea»v
and comparatively cheap. If th e
were no town and do noli Country
by this way it would fie economy to
build the road as we have ind.cab d.
There is no chance to cut thr ugh
the hills. There is a valley below as
well as above, but it off.rs no attrac
tions such as are guaranteed by way
of Cedartown. The country is poor.
The people raise no cotton worth
speaking of. They consume nearly
all their farm products. In shi rt the
lower route would be through Har
alson county will little property and
sparse population, and the upper will
pass through Polk county with its
