“THE UNION DEPOT QUES
TION."
Editor Hustler '?f Rome: —I
see in the papers that the" Union
passenger Depot question,'’ is be
ing discussed by some of our citi
zens. This is a question in which
every Roman should be interested
is a union depot would be a grea'
benefit !o the city, and that which
benefits Rome, bent-fits her citi
zens.
Several suggestions have been
made as to where the depot should
be located. This is an important
question, it is also one however
over which Rome should not fall
>ut and divide, but every citizen
should lay aside all perdjudice
unite on this question, pull togeth
er and build the depot.
Ab to the places suggested and
offered, all should jeceive a fair
and unbiased consideration the
merits and demerits of each should
ba fully discussed and the best
place for the benefit of Rome
and not for a few individuals,
should be selec'ed.
Rome is a growing town she is
speadingout in every direction,
and if her citizens will act in uni
ty she will still grow for there is
no town in Gecrg a that p; see ses
more natural advantages.
The secret (if it be a secret) of
Atlanta’s success, lies in the fact
that when an enterprise is suggest
ed her citizens come together bar
out every mans iudiviual interast
and locate said enterprise to the
best advantage of Atlanta. The
old proverb “United we stand di
vided we fall" is true for to ore
will deny that “In union there is
strength.“
Let Rome come together on this
question and with “a long pull a
Strong pull and an all pull t >geth
er land this needed enterpri e to
the be t interest of Rome.
For Unity.
FOR ALDERMAN.
I herebv announce myself a can
didate for aiderman from the
Fourth Ward of the city of Rome
subject to the action of the com
ing municipal election. In asking
the su >port of the people, I pledge
m\ B‘l if elected, to serve the peo
ple and city individually and col
lectively to the beet of my ability.
Very truly,
1 30—td Joseph E Johnson.
A STARTLING PLATFORM.
Editor Hustler of Rome :
The following is a platform for
economy :
1. Let the clerk be clerk and
treasurer, salary peryear SI,OOO.
2. Let the mayor be mayor and
recorder, salary SSOO.
3 Reduce the policemen’s salary
per mouth to $45
4. Curtail the police force ‘two
less than present number.
5. Reduce c 'Uncilmen in pro
portion to the above scale and al!
other officials of the city likewise
6. Let the contracts out to the
lowest responsible bidder.
7. We favor a reduction of the
street tax to $2 00 Where money
can't be paid I favor three days

8. We think the tire companies
expenses ought to be reduced,
L. Lytle.
