that the local travel was double the capacity of
the road, and the company are now beginning
double track at that end for local travel, before
they finish the through road.
undertake to predict to the honorable senator
from Georgia, that although the country through
which this road is to be constructed is a will
derness before it is finished the line of the road
aud the country for wide extent on either side,
will be more densely populated than the State of
which he is an able representative on this floor.
| undertake to say to the senator, that am will
ling to put myself on the record predicting
that when you get this road half done, the local
travel along the finished portion of it will be be-
yond the capacity of a single track to perform.
When you get one hundred miles into the will
derness, you will have shortened the distance for
the transportation of your army and other sup
plies into New Mexico; and who can count
the number of teams, the number of mules
and oxen, and horses, that will come to the
end of the road to haul supplies from that
point9 Who can count the number Of teamsters
that will be employed, the number of farmers
who will be required to supply productions to the
laborers, the number Of tavern keepers and store
keepers, and shop keepers, who will spring up
at the end of the road! So, as you keep moving
on each week, getting two or three more miles
of your track completed, the whole country will
become filled up with settlers who are to re-
main there permanently. Each one hundred
miles that you penetrate the wilderness you
shorten the distance for hauling supplies, and
greater number of teams will be required to con-
centrate upon it. and population will be swelling
in upon each side to raise provisions to sell the
men engaged in the work.
One of the best markets that can be opened to
the agriculturists anywhere will be along
the ae of this road to supply your five thous-
and workmen who will be employed in its con-
struction. Store keepers and shop keepers will
be needed to supply them with goods and other
materials. You will find mechanic shops growing
up all nong the road to make and repair tools and
Implements for the workmen. You will find
the whole country turning from wilderness into
| one of the most denseIy populated and highly
cultivated portions of America. Such will be
the natural result of the construction of the road
That being the case, do not see the force Of
the gentleman's argument that this work is to
be constructed through vast wilderness.
