THE 8. G. A y. A. II.
Editor James E. Brown Expresses Him
self on the Situation.
The following is part of an edito¬
rial in the last issue of the Newnan
Herald:
“When the bill of injunction filed
by the minority stockholders of the
Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama
rood to restrain the Central from fore
closing its mortgage on that property
is disposed of, there is scarcely any
doubt that the road will be extended
and greatly improved in every way.
A lateral line to Greenville is certain
to be built, asd the ultimate exten¬
sion of the road to some point in Ala
bama is not only probable, but prac
tically assured. At present, howev¬
er, the Central is handicapped by the
awsuit referred to, and unless tbi s is
withdrawn or otherwise disposed of it
ca n hardly be expected that any ma-
erial improvemtRtii will to made^
except so far as the bare necessities
of the road require, or the public safe
ty may demand. It is not likely that
the Central will expend anything for
betterments so long as the property
remains in litigation. Tbe Central
already owns 9,000 shares of tbe
stock, the remaining 2,000 shares
being owned and'controlled by the
minority stockholders. Col. W. E.
H. Searcy, of Griffin, is supposed to
be the largest holder of the minori¬
ty stock, and he has intimated at va¬
rious times that if the syndicate which
he reptesents could get control of
the property they would accomplish
great things. Up to this time, how
ever, Col. Searcy has been rather un
fortunate with bis railroad projeots,
(and bo has been identified with sev-
eral, of greater or less magnitude,)
hence there is little encouragement
to hope for an early materialization
of the scheme outlined by him from
time to time in connection with this
road. That the property has been
shamefully depreciated no one will
deny; but this is a grievance that to
longs to the original stockholders,
and not to those who hare bought up
tbe stock at 17.50 per share, as Col.
Searcy has done. Had he been one
of the original stockholders, and suf»
fered a depreciation of $92.50 per
share on the value of his stock, his ao
tion in bringing suit against the Cen
tral would have been more beseemly,
at least, if not more satisfactory iu re
suit.
Without entering into the merits
of the legal controversy brought
about by-tbe action of the minori~
ty stockholders, wo must deplore the
incident for the effect that it will
have in delaying or obstructing the
improvements so much needed on the
Savauoah, Griffin and North Ala
bama road. The case will be heard
before Judge M. J. Clarke, in Atlan
ta, some lime during the coming
month, and we sincerely trust that
tbo uiy uii.int there had will be final
and conclusive. But fur this iucubus
we have m> doubt the rcafl vreu'.J
have betu i-x I'mieU to Greenville
months ago,and N««o«u is far more
interested in the building of this line
than in any scheme which Col. Sear
cy has yet brought forward Or is like
ly to do.

Let every true Democrat in Spal¬
ding county go to the polls next
Wednesday and cast his vote for
.HaU and Collins. Quito,
To the Democrats of Spald¬
ing County.
The election for State officers will
come off the 3d of October, which is
next Wednesday, and it is our duty
to go to the polls and and vote for
the nominees. 1 find that some are
rather reluctant about going to the
polls. Now, this is wrong. We must
not be careless, but think of our
homes and our children, and above
every thing let us do our duty sod
send a Democratic Representative
from Spalding. While there'have
been other issues before the people in
the past, there are uow only two par
ties, the Democratic and tbe Repub¬
lican, aud we must eitbei send a white
man or a colored, as there is a color
ed man running against our nomi
nee.
The negroes are wtll organized
and we should be, too, or there might
be trouble. Mr. Collens is a young
man and has done a great deal foribim
self in the way of preparing himself
for business and attends to his busi
ness well, and is well fitted for tbe
office. Now, in conclusion let me
urge every Democrat to go to the
polls and vote, and do not neglect or
forget it.
Hoping remain you will all turn out and
vote, f
