I take it to be a truism, which even you will admit, that in dealing with the development of our country we must accept the facts and conditions whL-h we find existing, especially those existing in other states of the union. Itjs a fact that the pres ent system of roads now controlled by Mu. Gould controls the vast volume of the commerce and traffic of Texas and the great southwest. It is neces sarily a fact, that if the glowing manu factures of Georgia would reach that territory, or if the railroads of Georgia wonld reap the benefit of the freights moved by that system, the}' must be allied in a greater or less degree with whoever controls that system of roads. It is a fact, no legislation which this state can adopt can effect the relations which the roads in Texas and the south west bear to eaeh other and the traffic Since Mu. Gould AN ABLE REPRESENTATIVE.

In furtherance of this end, Mr. Hoke Smith, attorney at law, and legal coun sellor for the G., C.
