Railroad A
Certainty.
Several of our prominent citi¬
zens attended the Carnesvil e
Toccoa Railroad Meeting in Toc-
coa last Friday. Every step
possible was made in the direc¬
tion for work to begin on this
road in a few weeks. The road
is a certainty and the citizens
along the line are confident this
work will he completed. We
have hom^ men backing us and
we can safely rely on them as
they mean to build tn's road dur¬
ing the coming few months. If
work does not begin in *a t few
weeks the notes will not ne
legal which was given during
the past spring. If any town
and community in the state of
Georgia needs a railroad it is
this one, as good people as is on
earth are here ane when the
road is completed you will see
one of the best little towns in
Georgia.
Senator Clay. •
In the passing of Alexander
Stephens Clay Georgia loses one
of her ablest and most useful
public men, and tne United
States senate an honored and
influential member.
His thirteen years’ service in
the senate was marked by un¬
swerving honesty and unques¬
tioned devotion to the interest
of the people of his state and to
tne interest of the masses of the
people every where
Every section of the state of
Georgia stands deeply in his
debt for some special service
rendered or tor some special
evidence of the consideration
forethought that marked
career be * public servitor.
i Next to honesty, hard work
and painstaking care were his
most marked qualities. While
a speaker of force and ability,
he was not ah orator in the ordi¬
nary acceptance of that word,
and the service he rendered and
things he accomplished were
products more than anything
else of quiet efficiency. In this
he was the type of man that the
world is learning to cherish and
honor more and more.
His earnestness, his ability
and his known qualitj as a man
w ^° did things won him many
important committee appoint-
ments, and it. was in this capaci
ty that his best work was done.
His fight against the Payno-
Aldrich tariff measure vas note¬
worthy and, in fact, against all
bills which he deemed oppres¬
sive and unjust to the common
people his voice was ever lifted
His career affords inspiration to
the youth of the land. From a
raw country boy he rose to the
highest honor which his staTe
could bestow. In his life the
old qualities of pluck and per¬
severance had a new justifica¬
tion. He made opportunity
where opportunity there was
none. He changed the handi¬
caps of life into honor, fame
and fortune.
His death will bring ke°n greif
to his friends and political asso¬
ciates everywhere, and Georgia
will mourn him as one of her
best loved and most honored
sons. Atlanta Georgian.
