Sale Of Trotting Stock.

He won the race at the late state
fair, Nashville, Tennessee, for four
years old and under, and Mr.. Nc
Kimmin has driven him a mile in
2:343 during the past season. Kate
Eastman has shown a mile in

breeding grounds in Kentucky to
purchase young trotters in Tenues-
see, would it not be well for north

where to look through the stables

NORTH ALABAMA INTERESTED
A Voice from Madison County Fa-
vors the Route by Pulaski.

EDITOR CITIZEN Il notice in the
Huntsville Independent, of the lst
INST, an extract from your paper in
regard to a railroad from Pulaski
to Atlanta, in which you contrast
the two routes, one by Decatur, the
other by Huntsville, making the
latter much more practicable than
the former. In this you have taken
a right view of the subject. for, in
addition to being Is miles nearer
than the Decatur route, it would
traverse a much richer and better
section of country, and receive
much more aid in building. With
the exception of Z or 8 miles of bar
rens in the northern part of Madi-
son, the country is good and flour
ishlng from Pulaski to the Tennes
see river. Last spring, when the
subject of a narrow gauge road
from Fayetteville to Huntsville
sprang up, we were all very much
elated, and were right in for it..
This or miles of barrens / speak
of Is well supplied with post oak,
white oak and other timbers suita-
BILE for railroad purposes, and but
very little grading, and but one
creek to bridge in Madison county,
if run directly through here to
Huntsville. The tables you give of
the relative value of the two routes
would seem to be largely in favor
of Huntsville. The Pulaski route
would suit our people quite as well
as the Fayetteville route. Old Mad
ison X Roads, proper, is nearly on
a line with Pulaski and Huntsville.
See what an angle the route by
Huntsville would cut of.
There is scarcely any one through
this section of country but who
would give the right of way to get
the road; and as to timber, there
would be plenty Of that, 1 suppose,
free. This connection is more
loudly called for, and would be of
more substantial advantage to the
people and country through which
it would pass than any l can think
of. 1 hope you will continue 10
discuss the subject, and if you need
any information from this section
of country let me know.

Maj. Sykes Admonishes the People
Not to Lose tie Present OPP
portunity.

EDIToR CITIZEN question
is often asked me, "What are the
prospects of the Fayetteville 81 Cliff
ton railroadP l will answer thro'
your columns and give my candid
opinions on The subject. 1t can
easily be built if the people to be
benefited will take the proper in
terest in it; if they do not. of course
they cannot expect it. 1t is by no
means an impossibility, or beyond
the means of the people. There are
within two miles of this road, be-
tween Pulaski and Fayetteville,
300 acres of land. One dollar
on each acre would be $40, 800, and
this would secure its completion.
This land would be increased in
value more than ST., 100000. Giles
county would save each year by
this road $4,000 in reduced rates
of freight. This road would con
meet Pulaski at Fayetteville with
President Coles magnificent system
of railroads from ST. Louis to the
Atlantic seaboard, and would also
connect all of Giles county with the
Cincinnati Southern through Chat
tanooga. 1t would also, in a few
years, by bringing the coal and the
iron together at Pulaski, make that
flourIshing manufacturing city
These are the advantages you can
accept or throw away.
Some say: 1--WE would subscribe
if we were certain that the road
would be built" The way to make
it a certainty is to furnish the
means to build it. No merchant
Guys goods upon a certainty-nC
farmer plants crop upon a Ger
tainty. Those who will take nc
risks make no profits. The mar
who buried his talent in the ground
for fear of loss was condemned. 1
a man is in debt the building of thi'
road will increase the value of his
property and improve business 81
as to enable him to pay his debts
If all will help in proportion tt
their ability the road can and will
easily be built. If you lose thi:
opportunity 1 must say do not be
lieve you will have another by any
means so favorable.
The building of this Eastern anC
Western road will go lar toward in
ducing the Louisville, Nashville anC
Great Southern to bring their At
lanta road to Pulaski.

Cincinnati Enquirer: A glance
at the railroad map will show that
two powerful through North and
South roads are about getting in
shape to do business between Chat
tanooga and Its system of southern
roads striking that point and Chi
cago with its immense railroad con-
nections. The Cincinnati South
ern and the Indianapolis, Cincinnati
and Lafayette route will be three
miles shorter than that of the Louis
vile 81 Nashville and New Albany
& Chicago road. The Cincinnati
Southern with its splendid railroad
steel rails and elegant new equip
ments, will have the advantage over
the Louisville and Nashville and its
connecting lines, and unless these
connecting lines spool their issues
we may look for sharp fight. The
Cincinnati Southern has already
reduced the fare SO per cent
from Cincinnati to Chattanooga
and will do the same in freight rate:
to all competing points.

Ex-Gov. John G. Brown passed
through the city yesterday on his
way to Texas, where he goes to
take charge of all the operations
and business of the Texas and Pa
cific railroad, including the con-
struction of six hundred miles OF
road within the next three years,
contracts for which have been Civ
en- out. This six hundred miles OF
road will carry the Texas and Pa
cific. as far as FL. Paso, beyond
which it may be pushed in time.
Meanwhile, Governor Brown says
there is no connection whatever be-
tween his company and the South
ern Pacific (Huntington's) that
both are working independently
one gong west and the other com
ing east. Governor Brown is san
guine that the greatest of all oppor-
tunities for progress in the south
has arrived, and he is quite salts

her sanitary condition she is next

prosperity which he thinks has yet
only dawned upon u.s. Memphis

Salutation.

We sympathize with the readers
of the CITIZEN in the loss of our es-
teemed predecessor, who for nearly
a quarter of q century conducted it
so admirably and successfully.
When we realize the fact that his
mantle has descended on our shoul
ders, we feel like an intruder, and
when we contemplate the purity of
his private character, as a separate
and distinct thing from his journal
istic career, a strange sense of en-
barrassment leaves us-at loss how
to proceed. We can only ask the
kind indulgence of the public to
whom he has so generously recon
mended US, and we shall rely upon
his counsel and assistance for ian
mediate protection. We shall en-
deavor to initiate him in many re-
spects, and if the performance falls
short we trust the steadfast friends
of the CITIZEN, whom he has gath
cred around him during long years
of modest but enduring labor, will
acquit US of blame in view o; the
difficult character of the undertak

On Monday last Mr.. Warner, O.
Ohio, introduced bill in the House
to stop paper imitation and provide
for the necessary increase of the vol
ume of currency by free coinage OF
silver and gold, and silver and gold
certificates.
The bill recites that on January
L, 1880, the volume of paper money
in the United States was 100000,

bank notes, while metallic money is

that increase in volume. Paper
money operates to displace and pre-
vent the circulation of coin, and
the law authorizing private cor
porations to put their own paper
into circulation is opposed to pub
lie interest and sound principle,
and enacts that after the passage of
this act the issue of additional Ma
tional Bank notes designed to cir
culate as currency shall cease.
Section2 provides that for any nee
essity to increase the currency the
minis of the United States shall be
open to the public, for free coinage
of gold and silver standard coins
on the same terms.
Section 8 provides for issuing of
gold and silver coin, and bullion
certificates to be receivable for all
dues to the Government; all coin

are outstanding shall be retained in
the Treasury for redemption of
the same certificate return

Chicago Tribune. We see by ad-

veal the existence of an institution

make biscuit that will not, when
finished, strikingly resemble paving
stones in point of weight and den
sity. 1t is daily becoming more ev-
Ident that something needs fixing

There is blood upon the noctur
nal orb. The versatile word maker
who writes political essays for tie
American and uses language to con-
ceal his thoughts, after the manner
of Talleyrand, is in a fair way to
get himself disliked by the leaders
of the low tax party and slashed
into ribbons, besides, if he isn't
careful. He was imprudent enough
to rush into print with a few SOM
bre generalities concerning the
damnable character of the men who
are advocating reputation with
more zeal than discretion; where
upon, the venerable r. Z. Thomp-
son planges into the columns of the
Franklin Review aud Journal and
observes. rather frantically, that if
the versatile Journalist aforesaid
meant so aLd so, and thus and thus,
and certain things to the contrary
notwithstanding, he is a "lying,
cowardly scoundrel." From all of
which it is perfectly plain that tkis
positively irate Thompson doesn't
spell his name with "p'' for moth
ing. "P" means pistol, and if the
"Melican man" doesn't adopt a
more cheerful mode of criticism it
may also stand for perforated"

Washington Post: There is one
financial measure that ought to be
pushed through congress without
delay. The trade dollars should be
made redeemable in lawful money,
and, as fast as they come in for re
demption, sent to the mint to be
recoined into standard dollars. Such
a measure would benefit all interests.
Trade circles would be relieved of
a nuisance, and the extra weight
of the trade dollars would make
their ecoinage profitable.
