throughout the entire county, end cv-
cry citizen of Maury is therefore inter-
ested in this new railroad. Our PEG.
pic should hold meeting and APP
point persons to solicit subscriptions
for the Columbia and Hopkinsville
road:
DEAR TOBACCO LEAF We have
heard away down among the hills and
hollows, a vague rumor that link of
railroad lying between Hopkinsville,
Kentucky, and Columbia, Tennessee,
is about to be built, thus connecting
by direct line of railroad, the great
grain growing region of the North
and Northwest, with the Atlantic, by
the shortest possible route between
the cities of Chicago, Illinois, and
Montgomery, Alabama. We rejoice
to hear that there is possibility of
something turning UP" for our ben
eft. as wilkins McCawber would say.
If this road should be built, it will
he of great advantage to the country
lying between Hopkinsville and CO.
lumbia, and as we are between those
points and the direct line, We expect
TO be incidentally benefited, if not d.
rectly.
We have heard, but do not youch
for the truth of the rumor, that one
of our wealthy and enterprising iron
men offers to take stock to the amount
of 900 if the road should be built,
and we give it as our opinion, (and
and we think we know the character
of our people, that this county will
take 100000 of stock. Now if all
the counties along the line will do
even this much the road can be built.
And Mr.. Editor, we are further of the
opinion that it will be one of the best
paving roads in the South in short
time after it is put in working order.
All the grain and grass needed by
Alabama and Florida, will be shipped
over this road. All the coal South Of
Hopkinsvillc, will be shipped over
this road, because the Henderson and
Nashville road, with which this road
would connect at Hopkinsville, runs
directly through the coal fields of
Kentucky, and coal can be furnished
to the trade cheaper by this road than
any other.
Alabama has the iron orc without
fuel or navigation. or any other means
of transporting the iron or ore. This
road would furnish both, coal TO the
manufacturer and transportation for
his iron to the best markets on the
continent. And in the humble opin-
ion of the writer, this road would do
more TO develop the resources of coun-
ties through which it would pass.

TuE people of Hickman and Dick

from their Rip Van Wrinkle sleep,
and take deep interest in The pro-
posed railroad from Hopkinsvillc TO
Columbia, Tenn. Hickman county
forms part ola large railroad dcs-
crt, and every man in her limits ought

project, which promises more 10 that
section than 10 any other. Last week
we received a strong letter from our
Hickman county friend, DIR. d., in IA
yor of the road, and il has become
lost in some way. We regret It's loss
very much, for its favorable argument
would no doubt influence his fellow
citizens 10 take immediate action in
the project. Several prominent per-
SONS of Hickman and Dickson county
have written letters TO the Clarksyille
7obocco Lcgt upon this subject, one
of whom gives The proceedings of q
public meeting held by the people.
in favor Of taking immediate action
in the matter. Several gentlemen
were appointed from each civil dis
irict in the county TO solicit subscrip-
ions for the new railroad. The 9TH
n letter, from Dickson county, is full
Experiment suggestions, and we copy
il. Our own citizens should feel an
interest in this railroad. The lower
portion of Maury county is almost as
BADLY in need of Il railroad as Hick-
man. The country around and below
santa Fe is scarcely second TO any
section of Maury county lands IN

Why: Not because they arc not fru-
