President Wilson'S BiaI Road
SCflCIsES.

On our first page will be found
the report of r. 7. Wilson, Presi-
don't Of the Z. 7. Va. e Ga. r. r.,
extending from Chattanooga "a
Bristol. It Will be seen that he
proposes to create a rival line which
will drain and impovcrish nearly
one hundred miles Of his present
road. If successful the end would
be diversion of trade and travel
from Upper East Tennessee and
Virginia through North Carolina.
We are by no means disposed to
complain of snch management, but
it must be apparent that such a
sword may have two edges, and in
stead of paralyzing one hundred
miles of said road MIGHT, in the
end, do that same thing for the
whole line. Perhaps such doub-
lie result would be the very thing
for tlie country. II Mr.. Wilson
ehoald get a rival eastern extension

Mallone should get a rival western
extension to the Z. Z. Va. & Ga.
