Editor Southeast Geor iau :
At last the opportunity has
presented itself to build the
county of Camden; both in
its little towns and cities and
the rural districts as well.
For years the whole county
has been stagnant, princi
pally brought about by the
want of transportation and
connecting links with the out
side WOl'ld. 1 ilXS difficulty
was obviated when the S. A.
L. R. R. became an estab
lishod tact. You will observe
the thrifty little StatioilS
of Waverly, White Oak,
Woodbine and Kingsland.
The increase of property
values brought about by the
railroad anti the establish
ment of the several stations
along its liue. Propperty in
creased; taxes increased aud
benefits to the far distant
residents increased.
To go into minute details,
would take too much of your
valuable space and as the
facts are in existence, proofs
are absolutely unnecessary.
Now the only missing link
in our program was to con
nect your county site, witli
tho balance of the county,
At last thin much desired con
.lection has been made,
throgh the assistance of out
side capital. A connecting

link by rail has bson estab
lished with Kingsland, thus
giving an outlet to the'world
of one of the finest harbors
in the world, to-wit: St.
Marys (your county site),
Now as I feel every citizen of
the county of Camden is in-,
terested in the progress of this
ci tv, which undoubtedly-will;
rebound to the credit of the
entire. I feel that I should j
call your attention to a few
facts showing that at last the
people of St. Marys are real
izing her advantages and ear
nestty desire to show that
her advancement is to the
advancement of the entire
county. v For instance the
citizens, mayor and council
have unanimously voted an
appropriaaiou of $400 to car
ry on the St. Marys Academy
for the Spring term begin
ning Feb. 1st of this year,
They have opened the school
to every boy and girl in Cam
don and guarantee ° their ex
penseS, such as i__v boaru ancl
laundry, will not exceed what
it costs tor similar services
elsewhere in the state.
They have noted with con
siderable pleasure that the
county commissioners have
established a chain gang sym
tem that good roads may be
a practical benefit to offir citi
zens and enable them to reach
the county site with more
ease and pleasure than here
tofore. This undoubtedly
is a more in the right direc
tion, and will scarcely cost
the county anything.
Now there is one more move
that will rebound to the hon
or and credit of our honora
ble board of county cominis
sioners if they will take hold
of at once, to-wit: Instead of
spending building several thousand
dollars in a vault to
preserve the records of ortr
county in, that they build a
modern court house and jail,
Now the question presents it
self of how this fund should
be raised. This is a very easily
solved problem; why!, be
/
1
cause we have precedent after
precedent used by other coun
ties iu the state, among the
last, but by uo means least,
is our sister county Chari
ton, who have spent between
$20,000 and $00,001) to build
a modem court house and jail
This has been done by a
bonded issue the prorated on
each property owner being so
light, that the people actually
didn’t know when they had
completed payment of same.
Gentlemen, think, that sup
posing you and the citizens at i
large authorize a bonded
sue ol $>00,000 for the purpoe
aforesaid for a term of ten
years, at 6 percent. This
would be but $1,500 per an- 1
num; that would only be
half the cost of the construe
tiouof vault as proposed
preserve records and which
will undoubtedly be con
deuined in a a very few years
and be that much actually
thrown away of the people’s
money.
Now, if you will take the
amount proposed to be invest
ed in that vault, ! and issue

a amount
to build both a iail and court

this will add but very little
to , the . i expense ot the county,

same as
zens of Charlton county were
, .. *
when they were rewarded , ,
their progress and had paid 1

didn’t even know it
Now gentlemen of the
county commissioners, add
but a monument to the others
inthat the past and may be in
the future added to your iau
rels, and assist the city of St.
Marys, who guarantees to do
her part, by building a mod
em court house and a secure
and comfortable j —h
j transgressors and
I nate, who are condemned un*
der due process of law.
Are the people of Camden
aware of the fact* that in
e St. Marys
railroad over
$ 100,000 lias been spent, and
outside of the spikes and
rails every cent has been
spent in this county. It is
such industries as this which
will bring prosperity,

success with such a financial crisis

things. First, that the Adieus

to realize by the panic that
was no bettor way of invesing their

is doing a great good fur our
young people. Barents interested
in placing their sons and daugh

they will receive valuable moral
training as vyll as a thorough and
practical business training, would
do well to investigate this school,
