ClllCAHO roNVKXTION Till 1 National Democratic Con vention met in Chicago on Tuesday tiiid effected un organization by the election of Gov, Hubbard, of Texas, as temporary chairman, flrady, of Near York, introduced a resolution allowing delegates to vote indivi dually, and not by states. The object of the resolution teas to gel around the instructions of the New York Democratic convention,which instructed its delegates to vote as a unit-for the man whom a majority of the delegation should select. After, considerable discussion the resolution was rejected. A reso lution was adopted that no State should change its vote during a ballot. The convention then ad journed until this morning.

It means not only present but future progrcaa—the inaugura tion of an enterpriae that will not • only enable A mcricus to retain iu eommaniling position as the eom- incrcinl capital of Southwest Geor gia, but place it among the chief markets of the State, This is no bombast, but solid truth, which can bo proven. Suoh inducements ought to bo suffioieut to make every business man in Amcricus respond liberally, promptly and cheerfully to the cn!l for subscrip tions. Now let us look nt the other side, j Suppose Amcricus fails to promptly j raise tlie money to build its pro-1 portion of the road? A railroad ’ will in less than a year be built j Iroin Columbus to Albany, cutting olf tho trade Irom Webster county which Amcricus now enjoys. The road would now be under headway were it not tbnt the people along a large portion of the line arc now interested in securing the A mal l eus, Preston and Lumpkin road. Let Amel'icus once drop this rond anti the people of Webster und Stewart counties will at ouce join hands with Columbus and Albany to build that road. The people of those counties arc determined to have a road, and they will Imre it. Some ol our people laughed at the idea of the people of Schley and Marion building a road without outside nid, but the mat) is being built, and it is going to injure the trade of Amcricus unless the Atnericus and Lumpkin road is built. If Amcricus allows rail roads to be built around it, it will not be long before its trade will be cut olf and the life sapped out of our city. We do not know that any argu ment is necessary to induce our people to promptly trnko up the sum necessary, but it can do no kirm to givo them a plain state ment of the enso, as there are always a few in every city who do not at ouce realize the im portance of such public enterprises and arc inclined to think that ns Amerieus has prospered heretofore it must necessarily continue to prosper.
