A CHANCE FOR GRIFFIN.
A RAILROAD BOOM STRIKES OUR
SISTER CITY.
The Projected Hoed from Brian to Xadison, Held by
Judge Lochrane, Purchased by Colonel Cole,
and to be Pushed to Completion at Once???
Good Cause for On an to Rejoice.
Some yearn ago the good people of Griffin pro
jected it railroad from their town to Madison. It
won to crow a rich and prosperous country, and
pursing through .Tuckson, the county real of Butts,
wan to connect with the Georgia railroad at Madi-
bon. Griffin subscribed *10,000 lo the project and
much of the stock was taken by outride parties.
The railroad seemed ready to be completed, but,
like all human enterprises, it was liable to
delay. This delay came and so gloomily that the
rood seemed to ho destined to final failure. The
city of Griffin, co-operating with the stockholders,
wild the road to a c??uij??ny at the head of which
was Judge O. A. Loch rune. Although the line had
already been glided to Jackson and was surveyed
through, only *5,000 was paid for f ran (hires,
grading and all.
The new Oile line to Macon would leave Griffin
twelvo miles to the right, and there was
much apprehension that serious damage
would result to the business of tbatstirring city by
giving Mi con and Atlanta better advantages of
through freight and leaving Griffin out in the cold.
It is true that the people of that city thought of
building a ljno to connect with the Cole road to
Macon, but it would have been difficult for them
to do it aloue. A much belter fate than
even a success in rttch a project
has befallen them. The Cole syndicate
has purchased from Judge Lochrane'* company
the entire property of the Griffin, Monticelloand
Madison railroad. It is said that the price paid
wus ftO.OOCi, a huudsoine profit on the original in
vestment. 1 be road is to built at once and will
cross the Cole Hoe to Macon in an uir-line from
Griffin. There will probably be little difficulty In
obtaining through freight rates for that city, as the
Georgiaand Central roudsure to lie connected by this
line. Tlie work, we learn, will be pushed forward
without delay.

The long tnlkcd-oi project of a railroad
