Macon (* the Finer for It.
Macon, Athens and Columbus have en
tered the lists for the contest of the location
of the school of technology. Macon is the
city of schools, is centrally located in the
State, and besides, wr think the passage of
the law for the establishing of such a school
is due to the continued effort* of the Tele
graph in this direction.—Fort Gaines Ad
vertiser.
Macon, Athens, Atlanta nnd Columbus
will enter the contest for the location of
the school of technology. Under the hill
the city offering the la-st inducements will
get it. Macon Wing nearer the geographi
cal centre of the tftnte than any of the
other cities named, should have the school.
Athens i* too far off in the northeastern
part of the State, aud it is not a cheap city
to live in. Columbus is at a disadvantage
on account of her locution. Atlanta al
ready ha* a school of this kind and is not
centrnlly located as Macon. Macon i^
the city for the State technological school
ind we hope she will get it.—Montezuma
Record.

Nim Savannah to America* by Way of
lfnWk!ri«ville amt Dublin.
In another column will be found a notice
for application for charter for a new rail
road, the Savannah, Dubliu and Western
Short Line Railway Company, who propose
to build a railroad from Savannah to Ameri
can, bv way of Dublin and Hawkinsville.
The route proposed i* a good one, a* it i*
piidistant between the Central and the
East Tennessee. Virginia and Georgia roods
and runs through a territory rich iu lumber
and without uuy railroad communication.
Such a road would be of great bene-
o Americas, as it would give
short and direct communica
tion with Savannah, greatly reducing rates
cotton to the principal Southern port.
The fact • >f Americas being the western ter
minal point of the road would also be of
great advantage to us, as it would naturally
draw to this city the trade of all tin* coun
ties west of us. We know nothing of the
parties forming the company, nor do we
know anything of the probabilities of th**
road being built. We only know that tin*
notice was sent to Judge Speer, ordinary of
this county, with the request that a copy In-
posted nt the court house ami
publication made in a newspaper.
The notice was sent bv Mr.
J. M. Stubbs, of Dublin, who in hi* letter
says he represents capitalists of l’liilude!-
phis and N* vv York, We hope tin* road
may be bnilt, and that speedily, aud we
know that the people of Americas un
ready to give such a line substantial aid nnd
encouragement. Such a road has been sev
eral times projected, and ns many times
failed of development; but we believe that a
line between Americas and Savannah will
be built before lumy year*, by this compa
ny or some other, for the reason that such
a road is demanded, and will prove a pay
ing invest;*;* nt. - American Recorder.
THE GEORGIA .MIDLAND.
The Itoi.l Will I e Itiillt From Columbus to
MitillMm Certain.
We are rejoiced to be able to state au
thoritatively that the Georgia Midland is
one of the mature.) . nterpriscs. In response
to the frank, truthful exhibit of the work
performed by the Madison committee, the
syndicate, through its authorized agent, say
emphatically the road frotu Madison to
Griffin will oe built, with the assurance of
$lno,iMPt|, The ccmmitte had secured $75,'100
of tlint amount from Morgan, Jasper, Butts
ami Spalding counties, Ik fore making its re
port, and now the remaining S25,*nio has
teen pledged. This secures the building of
the road from M-ulison to Griffin. Colum
bus will tuke cart* of the road from Griffin
to the Chattahoochee, having already sub
scribed money enough for that purpoie.
There are three routes from which to select
between Madhonand Griffin, to-wit :
1st. The old surwyed r*>utj from Madi
son via} Mouticello td Griffin.
*2*1. Madison to Shady Dale, Benton ville,
Locust Grove, Griffin.
fid. Madison to Shady Dale, Beutonville,
Jackson, Griffin.
The motley required has been assured
should either of the last two routes be w»-
2t eftd, and it now remains for the people of
Monticello and vicinity to say win-tin r they
want the read or m t. ’ It they wish it tiny
mu t talk right out in meeting, and tail;

Canton, October 17.—A farmer wns
