Not simply because it is a new road and in that particnlar something of ca riosity and attraction, but because it opens up to commerce one of the rich est sections of country in tbe State. It also is a competing line to that great syndicate and combination, tbe Richmond Terminal Company that is attempting to crash out the very best interests of the State. The people arc hence very glad indeed to see tbe new road completed to Ath ens and pushing on to Atlanta. When completed it will be one of tbe greatest trunk lines in the south and will do nearly all the eastern business of this section. It will be a good pay ing investment for tbe owners and operators and also a great boom to tbe people of this section of Georgia. Not only has it opened np a fine sec tion, but its very presence lends additional value to every acre of land within its scope and.stamps prosperity on every town and hamlet along the line. Since its completion to Elberton and Athens little towns have sprung like magic from tbe hitherto unbroken for ests, and are now taking rapid and pro gressive strides. They are being built up by & prosperous people and behind them are all the elements of success, As the days go by they will grow and thrive; new railroads will branch out from them; new industries will be established; tbe splendid crops will be shipped over the new railroad; and many new manufacturing institu- tutions will be started up. The watchword and battle cry of all these young towns along the line of the Georgia, Carolina A Northern, is •‘Progress,” and they will make things bum. WHAT THEV ARE DOING. Just seven miles from Athens is Hull, located on Mr. R. H. Bullock’s land. It i6 situated in a splendid sec tion of country and good farming land, possesses every quality for ling a great place. Tbe railroad is now putting in side tracks and fixing up its station in tip top order. Next week the town will be laid ofi in lots and they will be sold off to the highest bidders. Every thing is in good shape here and proper ty is advancing steadily in value. Hull promises to be a lively little town. The next station is VIVE FORKS in Madison county and is located in a most favorable spot. Here tbe fimith- onia, Danielsville & Carnesville railroad will tap the G. C. & X., and tbe two roads will bring to Five Forks a large amount of business. The town is already laid off and the lots are selling at a good price. Indeed.” remarked a G. C. & N. man yesterday. Five Forks promises to be one of the very best places in every particular along tbe line.” Comer is a town a little further along the line. It has anticipated matters more than the other places and is already on a great big boom. There are already fifteen bouses or more at Comer ana more are being built daily. Merchants are locating there and are laying i-i good lines of merchandise in eveiy branch of the bu siness. Several citizens have built handsome residences at Comer and the citizens of this bustling little town are bent on making it one of tbe prtncij lints along the-line of tbe arolma A Northern.

Tbe advent of the Georgia, Carolina and Northern into tbeir midst has made them take on a newness of life and that. they are bound to become large cities is evi denced by the increase in growth they have attained in the last year. And indeed, all the stations along the line are thus. Welcome, the G. C. &. N; it is the bearer of good tidings. GOV. NORTHBN TALKS. Why Charges Were Not Preferred Against Livingston. Gov. Northen was asked Friday why Dr. Gibson sought to bring charges be fore the state alliance instead of the ex ecutive committee. He gave quite a number of reasons. (1.) When the president and other of ficials of the Georgia state alliance were charged before the Ocala convention last December with certain offenses the convention considered the charges and appointed a committee to investigate the complaints. The charges were nev er referred to the executive committee. (8.) In the last session of tbe state al liance of Georgia John Sibley preferred chaiges against Col. CorpuL The charges were first referred to a special committee, but afterwards were con sidered by tbe committee on tbe good of the order. (3.) Last March Col. Livingston pub lished a card expressing bis willingness to call tbe executive committee together and snbmit all charges to it that might be brought against tbe State Alliance officials; and if that was objectionable he would call a session of tbe State Al liance and submit of tbe matter to that body. (4 ) In an interview June 10 he again expressed his readiness to throw the executive committee open to the men who had charges to make, and told them that if they were not satisfied to go before the committee he would call the State Alliance together, even though it would be at a cost of $2,000 These reasons were deemed a suffi cient guarantee that the investigation could be had before tbe Alliance. There was strong precedent for this course, and the president bad more than once publicly said that the charges would be entertaiued by tbe conven tion. Again it was not possible to obtain some important testimony in time, in deed, it has not yet been received; bat it was thought best not to delay tbe matter longer than tbe session of tbe state Alliance. The investigating com mittee at Ocala reported that they could not approve of Col. Livingston’s connection with tbe late canvass for United States senator before our gen eral assembly. Tbe testimony before that committee was, therefore, consid ered of importance for this investiga tion. This testimony was solicited from H. C. Demining of Harrisburg, Pa., who was secretary as well as a member of that committee. This was not received, and bis correspondence explains, in part tbe necessity for the delay in presenting tbe charges before tbe order Continuing, the governor said: “We had precedent for going before, the convention. We bad tbe positive statement of the president,several times made public, that the charges would be heard in the convention. Even after we were in session he told Dr. Gibson that be should be beard at the proper time, still confirming tbe right to be beard before the alliance. We did not want to put the alliance to the expense ef a called session; there - fore we took the coarse we did. We thought as these matters had been before tbe publio some months that every man in tbe convention should hoar the tes timony and the defense.. I mean no reflection upon the committee, but we will not go before it. When we go to the committee he will then say that precedent demands that we go before tbe alliance. No, sir, wb&t I know is how absolutely in my control. I have done my duty to the order in offering the convention some damaging facts. They were violently thrown back into my hands, and I am now at liberty to use them as I see fit.” DANIELSVILLE DOTS.

Comer owns most of the land on which tbe town is situated, and in bis honor tbe town bears the name of Comer.' Carlton has gotten a move on it and has quite a number of oitizens. All of these places are bran new settlements and for the most part are carved from tbe hitherto unbroken forest. Carlton is a new place, bat it is destined to prove to the world that grit and energy builds a town faster and better than sit ting back and relying on age and pres tige. Tbe land upon which Carlton is sitnated is owned by Mr. J. A. Russell aud be has a bonanza in it. J. D. Long has recently built a large saw mill at Carlton and is a big business. Oglesby is tbe next station. It is a small place as yet, but promises much in the way of growth and improyement. It is situated at a good point am good future before it. .... Elberton is a name quite familiar *rfch all of our citizens. It is eynomy- roou3 with success, and the city is filled with brainy, energetic men who know how to build a city. It is now doin large business and the building of I C. C. ,Y X. means a great deal for the place. It gives it a good railroad facilities which in addition to those already psnswsed in the Elberton Air Line will make the city thrive and prosper. It does good cotton and gen- ral mercantile trade, and the Elber- ton Oil Mills is reported at a capital ized stock of over one million dollars It has two bright and newsy sheets, the Star and tbe Gazette, that furnish good reading, and in every branch ^of bn«iness is doing well. It is only an hours ride from Elberton to Athens and He wanted to scoop in some street car nickles. And he got a ballet through his shirt. That’s the whole story made short. On August 30th at a late hour when tbe street care had all been run in out at the plant and tbe conductors had all made their reports and emptied their pockets to manager Voss, Mr. Howell Cobb Jr., started home. Mr. Cobb is one of the obliging con- ductorfftm the electric cars. While he was walking through tbe old fair ground in tbe dark, a big black negro stalked out from the side of his path and said: “Boss, give me a cigarette, please.” Mr. Cobb told him he had no ciga rette, and walked on thinking no more- about tbe little occurrence. He hadn’t gone a hundred yards when the same of negro man came out from his path side and said: Boss let me examine that satchel you got on your shoulder I want to see how it works.” He referred to the little nickle plated register that Mr. Cobb carried on his shoulder, the contrivance used all the conductors register their fares as they are col lected. They are not made to hol-1 money and cannot be used for purses. The negro evidently thought so, and was aiming at robbing Mr. Cobb of tbe register. Mr. Cobb saw tbe point in an in- Btant and said to the negro. If you come an inch nearer to me 11 shoot a hole through you big enough to let the day light through.” The negro, in spite of this threat, walked a step or two nearer, when Mr. Cobb retaining his coolness warned him again: “Stand back, I tell yon. If yon come closer I’ll part your hair for you,” and with this drew a revolver which he had cautiously put in his belt before leaving tbe car shed. The negro possibly didn’t a ee the pis tol for he came within a few feet of Mr. Cobb. It looked too much like an assault and Mr. Cobb fired twice. The negro pelled and ran away. Mr. Cobb thinks he hit him with one of the shots. It is supposed to be one of the rail road negroes. SUBSTITUTE FOR SUB-TEAS - URY BILL.
