Making the Roads Pa)
Well.
In the last twenty years, Geoi
gia’s cotton crop lias doubled
, and the corn crop has increased
47 per cent. During the same
period the railroad mileage has
increased about 50 per cent.
The taxable values of the
State’s rail oads and manufac
tures were increased during this
' time 260 per cent.
The taxing o.ficers have beer,
very industrious as to the rail
roads and manufacturing enter
prises but have not put up tin
values of the larms in anythin;,
like the sane d igree.
Farm lands have advanced ltO
| per cent in pi ice i.i t..c last the
years.
Vast areas of timber land which;
sold for 50 cents an acre twei.t !
years ago, will bring $6 to srt
■ an a*;re now. '
this inhar.cement
does, not show r.pon the 'tax
i books.
The taxable valuation of all
real and personal propt rty n |
Georgia, railways, telegraph and;
manufacturing industries exeept
cd, increased only 52 per cent.
■ from 1885 to 1904.
Who can explain it?
Is every kind of property get
: ting a square deal? Writing on j
the State’s growth, Hon. Martini
V. Calvin says:
“In studying the digest proper
and in noting the steady en
hancement in values, real and
personal, one cannot fail to mark
the heavy percentum of increase
in the taxables or railroads, tele

Broxton’s PrOgre^s.veness
" "cspwimrrv r \vriufr*g'frofh
Broxton says: The recent pur
chase by the John Skelton Wil
liams Syndicate of a chain of rail
roads from Augusta through
Broxton to the Gulf of Mexico,
and the wide-spread belief tln*t
this road will eventually become
. great trunk line from New
York through Broxton to the
gulf, has caused a remarkable
ictivity in local real estate. Since
January Ist over one hundred
lifferent people have bought lots
in Broxton and the sales continue
unabated.
This week a syndicate compos
ed of John E. Bleekman, of New
York City; C. T. Williams, of
Richmond, Va., J. W. Miller, of
Macon, Ga., and T. M. Cheat
ham, of Broxton, Ga., bought
over 390 lots and are organizing
a $250. 000 investment company
for the purpose of subscribing
partial stock in various manufact
lring enterprises which they
iropose Rx-operate in Broxton.
fnree of these gentlemen are
connected with the Williams Syn
dicate, and it is very probable
that the enormous shops of this
railroad will be located at Brox
tou. One of the buildings
