VALDosTA, GA, Sept. 15.-The co-opera-
tion of the Ocean Pond Investment Com
pany with the Tobacco Belt Line Company
of Florida, in the projection of a new rail
road from the tobacco belt via Ocean Pond
to Valdosta, is now the subject of much
comment throughout the southern part of
Lowndes county and the section Of country
between here and Madison, Fla. The people
in and around Madison and that section Of
the country have long objected to the
freight rates that they have been compelled
to pay for the transfer of their merchandise
and produce. Consequently they have been
devlslng some scheme by which. with
their united efforts, they might establish a
convenient and iudicious outlet for the pro-
motion of the interests and the encourage
ment of the utility of the natural resources 8
of this fertile section.
OBJECT OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY
The Ocean Pond Investment COMPANY is
a company which has been organized bv
citizens around the Ocean Pond and the
beautiful lakes in that vicinity with estab-
lished headquarters at the town of Law
renee. The object Of this company is TO
build up the town of Lawrence and to erect
there by the aid of northern capital
a large hotel, to be situated on the
high hill between the Ocean Pond and
beautiful lakes, and in view of both the
company hopes to attract a large portion
OF the visitors from the north and other
portions of the country who come south to
shun the winter. The company held q
meeting last Thursday and decided to CO.
operate with the Tobacco Belt Line of
Florida in the extension Of their line to
Valdosta. Work will be connenced as soon
as the company gets its charter.

VIII Meet Them Half Way.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-The Post to-
morrow morning will print an interview
With Congressman c. W. Oates of Alabama.
one of the democratic leaders who made n
light last session against the direct tax bill,
upon the organization of the next House.
Mr.. Oates says that the democrats should
not intrust their leadership to one man but
put committee in charge who shall deter
niue, subject to caucus, the line Of action
to be pursued on political measures.
AN OFFER OF FAIR PLAY.
Now, If the republicans will act fairly

VIII light back. IL they pursue
such policy as has been indicated in cer-
tam quarters they will accomplish abso-
lutely nothing, but will wear out the session
with bickering and strife. Even with the
congressman from the new states they will
nave only three over a quorum, aud they
will never, ] feel confident, be abie to
muster quorum Of their own party at any
one time. The democrats, with thirteen
majority, only succeeded once by strenuous
euorts IN getting quorum Of their own
party, and that was to vote on the tariff
bill.n
THE SPEAKERSHIP.
AS to tho speakership, Mr.. Oates saws he
