CAMPAIGN FOR EXTENSION OF STATE
ROAD 1S BEGUN, |
(FROM THE AGUSTA HERALD)
Waycross, Ga.-—A vigorous cam
’,)aign in behalf of the state road ex
tension from Atlanta to St, Marys,
Ga., in Camden’ county, has been
launched, aud will be continued un
til the desired extension is anaccom
plished tact. Practically the entir2
harbor has been tendered to 'the
state, should the port of St. Marysl
be selected as the sea terminal of the
state road Besides this offer, excel
lent terminal facilities have been ten
dered at St. Marys, the right of way
through Camdeu county, graded, has
been assured, and other counties are
getting in line. Charlton "cmmtv}
grand jury at regular session next
week will reccomend the granting of
the right of way for the proposed
extension, with grading thrown in.
Ware county, already having taken
action in the matter, will further con
tribute, %
St. Marys ofters strong argument
as the logical sea port terminai of
of the state road. Waycross is on
the route, and is working hard for
the extension. The following reso
lution has been adopted by Camden
county: \
““Whereas there is an effort on
foot to build the state road (the Wes
tern & Atlantic) from Atlanta on to
the sea—in order to preserve the val
ue of the present line from Chatta
nooga to Atlanta and ia order toin.
crease its value and effectiveness and
to guarantee to the people of the state
of Georga eternal equity inrates and
service—the legislature at its sum
‘mer session 1n Jane is hereby mem
orialized to authorize the construct
ion of the state road on to the sea,
and the port terminal is wanted to be
St. Marys, and we hereby offer to
the state the harbor of St. Marys,
Ga, In addition to this offer, the
legislature's attention 1s called to
the following facts:
*That Jacksonv.lle, Fla. is the ob
jective point ard convergent ‘termi
nal of all passenger and freight busi
ness to and from Florida, the West
ndia Islands and the Bahamas, and
will eventually be the first port & |
entrance to the Atlantic from t'r)}j;f
Panama Canal when that- waterway |
shall be completea, 3 |
“Thercfore, in erder for any rait
road to do a profitable business to
and from the southeastern coast, ft
would seem necessary for that road
to have a terminal at or near Jack:
sonville. But the state road, in ok
der to be of the greatest service é)
the people of the state, must have‘éfi
coast terminal within its borders
[t must also be unhampered in tlf
scope and depth of its waterfront,
and we submit that St. Marys is the
last port on the Georgia coast neat
est to Jacksonville, and that t
frontage and depth of water is th
best south of Norfolk Va, Virtual
Iv the entire port is offered the stat
almost as a gift. -
“As the state road enters the staf
at its northwestern corner, itiis evw
dent that in order to traverce th |
largest teiritory of the state.in a &
rect line to the sea, it would run
the southeast corner, St. Marys, a
‘thereby run directly through the ceg
ter of the state, benefiting the entige
people of the state by its closebt
proximity to all sections possible,
for a single hine, »
“‘ln addition to the offer made to
the state by the St Marys & Kings=
land ‘Railroad company, making {a
tender of its present hne from B§t
Marys to Kingsland with all its
water front, practically includ;gg
the entire harbor, itishereby agreed
and the reccommendation is made
to secure the right of way and grade
the balance of this‘line to the Charl
ton county boundary, and turn same
over to the state free of coarge,
provided the state will make St.
Marys its Georgia terminal or one
of them, . :
“In view of the large amount of
idel 13bor just at this time, and in
consideration of tbe financial dc-}
pression throughout this state as
well as 1o others, it 'is submitted
that 1t is @ most propitious time "to‘{
‘begin this work, in thatl* would net
‘ouly cost the state a great deal less
than at scme other time, but it
‘would employ the surplus labor
which is now idle and create cug%»
’dence for a reaewal of prospenty,
