In your issue of tho 29th. ult. You
call on the officials Of the C. G. G. 4 G.

line Of this road by active steps towards
work on it. The writer desires to say
that the anxiety on this question is be-
coming somewhat painful. and your re-
marks find n hearty response among the
friends of the enterprise. We admit
that an injustice might he done these
gentlemen by expecting them to do
more than is reasonable. But while
this is true, have We not a right to ex-
pcct that we hear something from the
gentlemen on q subject that has caused
so much discussion. We meant all that
the word work means when we were
trying to meet these officers on their
own proposition In April and May.
In an enterprise like this, private par
ties, and even stockholders are power

pushing the matter on. If this cannot be
done, the difficulties in the way can at

pense in which it now stands. If it
