We made (he run in a car from
Jefferson to Dahlonega in about
two anp a half hovvers. From
Brooktoti to Dahlonega, a splendid
mountain highway is being built,
and when Completed will be one
of the smothest and most durable
roads in the State Highway System.
By all means, this road should be
compleated to Dahlonega this fall.
Hon. Turner Quillian, one of
Georgia’s most progressive citizens,
and one of North Georia’# best
road builders, says that the time is
not far off when there will be a
model road from Gainesville to
Dahlonega, and also one to Clevc-
1 md. Mr. Qulliun has one of the
most beautiful homes found in the
rural se tion of Georgia, which is
located at the Dahlonega and
Cleveland rouds. Mr. Qullian is
till first person in Georgia to secure
Federal aid for road purposes,
which money was used in building
a part of the highway from bis
place to Dahlonega.— Jackson
Ilcarld.
We hope that the lion. Turner
Quillian knows what lie is talking
about when he says that a “model”
road will be soon built to Cleve¬
land. We hope it will be a model
road—one that can be easily truvled
every day in the year. One man
we are looking for assistance is
Chairman-elect John N. Holder
who is the most capable man in
Georgia for this responsible po
fiition. He always acts unselfishly
and for the people at large, and
nowhere can a man better prove
this than speaker of the bouse,
where Mr. Holder served so many
years, and the best one ever held
that position without question.
Some of this unharnessed water
power should be put into use, don’t

Hob Tombs, it is said, opposed
the erection of a hotel in Washing¬

and if they were not gentlemen
they were not wanted in the town.
The county commissioners held
a spccinl meeting last Thursday
afternoon at lleien to discuss the
soute over which the highway in
White county should be built.
Engineers of the highway com¬
mission were present and urged a
decision but the county commis¬
sioners deferred.
At their regular meeting held in
their office Wednefday they enter¬
ed into a discussion of this subject
and concluded to make the high¬
way commission a proposition
which, in brief, is as follows : The
highway construction is to begin
at the Hall county line and finished
to Cleveland. Then they are to
Build a road by way of Nacoochee,
the commission having the privil¬
ege to commence work at anypoint
on the road they choose. Upon
completion of this road work will
lie commenced ou theTesuatee Gup
route, as funds become avatlable.
If the highwty connnicsion re¬
jects ibis proposition some other
proposition must be met before
work will be commenced on the
highway.
