ATLANTA'S FIRST SUBWAY. We are beginning now to (eel our fortunes In' this bright end brave Atlanta. , The (Igufes from tSs census and the government reports have set ev ery Atlanta man to thinking of the glory and the growth of this etty that we love, and every dtlxen now begins to realise that Atlanta has not only prospered In day* gone by, but that she Is dssllntd to a more rapid and larger Increase In th* coming figure. ; • Already our thorougblare* are crowded as they art In the greater cities of the country, our strweta are rapidly congealing with the tides <>r traffic and- our transportation lines at certain hours arc packed and In adequate In the demands oftravsl. the other great Titles and carry some ot Its traffic and travel under the ground. The mere multiplication of folks la bewildering the lines of trans portation. Cars on tha ground, can In tba air. and cars under the ground —everywhere, and yet there are not cars enough to earry the people who aland In aisles, and swing on straps, and Dll the seats of every vehicle of locomotion. Ho thnt some dny, Atlanta, like other cities, must face the problem of n subway. It Is not pressing at Ihe moment, but It Is not untimely to siwculste as to Its location when It comes. As The Georgian stated some days ago. It Is likely that Ilia Ural subway will begin at the Junction ot the Poach- trees, where tho two trolley line* come together, and from this point It will run through walls of steel down Peachtree and Whitehall streets un der the huslnnss territory until It emerges near Outhmsn's laundry In the less congested section of the city. The confonnstton of ttie csTth will mske -the emrauoe snrt the citt easy for this great enterprise when Its time shall ronte. nnd at some lime within the next two decades, necessity will doubtless clamor fur Us completion. And then with these great streets left open for pedestrians and for ve hicles or the higher class, Atlanta will have two of the loveliest thor oughfares of fashion and architectural beauty In all this wonderful coun try In which we live. N Tho Georgian has no Intention of prosecuting an Immediate campaign In this direction. Imt It Is Just as well for the chitons who understand Atlanta to become accustomed to the suggestion of a subway under the heart of the eltv. ptl Ity tvro pwfwlfl> One FTFnlng H«»rf«»jnr part of tbe ntoui wed under KdwtirdR. tjulcf. ftlliu youn* fellow, who had Imvo mad* ft prpfFrl rhet term.
